sendmsg返回值_sendmsg 和 recvmsg 函数

1. 基础介绍

最通用的I/O函数，只要设置好参数，read、readv、recv、recvfrom和write、writev、send、sendto等函数都可以对应换成这两个函数来调用。同时，各种输出函数调用也可以替换成sendmsg调用。

#include

ssize_t recvmsg(int sockfd, struct msghdr *msg, int flags);

ssizt_t sendmsg(int sockfd, struct msghdr *msg, int flags);

大部分参数都在msghdr结构中

structiovec

{ /* Scatter/gather array items */

void *iov_base; /* Starting address */

size_t iov_len; /* Number of bytes to transfer */

};

structmsghdr

{

void *msg_name; /* optional address */

socklen_t msg_namelen; /* size of address */

structiovec *msg_iov; /* scatter/gather array */

size_t msg_iovlen; /* # elements in msg_iov */

void *msg_control; /* ancillary data, see below */

size_t msg_controllen; /* ancillary data buffer len */

int msg_flags; /* flags on received message */
