Additions to the XTI Interface

The XNS 5 (UNIX03) standard introduces some new XTI interfaces. These are briefly described below. You can find the details in the relevant manual pages. These interfaces are not available for TLI users. The scatter-gather data transfer interfaces are:

t_sndvudata(3NSL)

Send a data unit from one or more non-contiguous buffers

t_rcvvudata(3NSL)

Receive a data unit into one or more non-contiguous buffers

t_sndv(3NSL)

Send data or expedited data from one or more non-contiguous buffers on a connection

t_rcvv(3NSL)

Receive data or expedited data sent over a connection and put the data into one or more non-contiguous buffers

The XTI utility interface t_sysconf(3NSL) gets configurable XTI variables. The t_sndreldata(3NSL) interface initiates and responds to an orderly release with user data. The t_rcvreldata(3NSL) receives an orderly release indication or confirmation containing user data.


Note - The additional interfaces t_sndreldata(3NSL) and t_rcvreldata(3NSL) are used only with a specific transport called minimal OSI, which is not available on the Oracle Solaris platform. These interfaces are not available for use in conjunction with Internet Transports (TCP or UDP).
