spt_accept(2) OSS System Calls Reference Manual
NAME
spt_accept - Initiates thread-aware accept( ) function
LIBRARY
G-series native OSS processes: /G/system/sysnn/zsptsrl
H-series OSS processes: /G/system/zdllnnn/zsptdll
SYNOPSIS
#define _XOPEN_SOURCE_EXTENDED 1
#include <spthread.h>
int spt_accept(
int socket,
struct sockaddr *address,
size_t *address_len);
PARAMETERS
See the accept(2) reference page.
DESCRIPTION
This is a thread-aware version of the accept() function. The socket must be nonblocking for this
function to be thread aware.
This function requires that the feature-test macro _XOPEN_SOURCE_EXTENDED be specified
when you compile the module.
The following macro maps spt_accept() to accept() and has been defined in spthread.h:
#define accept(socket, address, address_len) \
spt_accept(socket, address, address_len)
This macro is available only when SPT_THREAD_AWARE has been defined before including
spthread.h, as follows:
#define SPT_THREAD_AWARE
RETURN VALUES
See the accept(2) reference page. The following also applies:
• The returned file descriptor is nonblocking.
• Value errno is never set to [EWOULDBLOCK].
• If the socket becomes invalid (is closed by another thread), -1 is returned with an errno
of [EBADF].
• If a signal is received via pthread_kill() and is not blocked, ignored, or handled, -1 is
returned with an errno of [EINTR].
STANDARDS CONFORMANCE
This function is an extension to the XPG4 Version 2 specification. Interfaces documented on this
reference page conform to the following industry standards:
• IEEE Std 1003.1c-1995, POSIX System Application Program Interface
The use of the header file spthread.h is an HP exception to the POSIX standard.
