| 9 | .SH NAME |
| 10 | sctp_bindx \- Add or remove bind addresses on a socket. |
| 11 | .SH SYNOPSIS |
| 12 | .nf |
| 13 | .B #include <sys/types.h> |
| 14 | .B #include <sys/socket.h> |
| 15 | .B #include <netinet/sctp.h> |

| 18 | .BI " int " flags ); |
| 19 | .fi |
| 20 | .SH DESCRIPTION |
| 21 | .BR sctp_bindx |
| 22 | adds or removes a set of bind addresses passed in the array |
| 23 | .I addrs |
| 24 | to/from the socket |
| 25 | .I sd. |
| 26 | .I addrcnt |
| 27 | is the number of addresses in the array and the |
| 28 | .I flags |
| 29 | paramater indicates if the addresses need to be added or removed. |
| 30 | .PP |
| 31 | If |
| 32 | .I sd |
| 33 | is an IPv4 socket, the addresses passed must be IPv4 addresses. If |
| 34 | .I sd |
| 35 | is an IPv6 socket, the addresses passed can be either IPv4 or IPv6 |
| 36 | addresses. |
| 37 | .PP |
| 38 | .I addrs |
| 39 | is a pointer to an array of one or more socket addresses. Each address is |
| 40 | contained in its appropriate structure(i.e. struct sockaddr_in or struct |
| 41 | sockaddr_in6). The family of the address type must be used to distinguish |
| 42 | the address length. The caller specifies the number of addresses in the |
| 43 | array with |
| 44 | .I addrcnt. |
| 45 | .PP |
| 46 | The |
| 47 | .I flags |
| 48 | parameter can be either |
| 49 | .B SCTP_BINDX_ADD_ADDR |
| 50 | or |
| 51 | .B SCTP_BINDX_REM_ADDR. |
| 52 | An application can use |
| 53 | .B SCTP_BINDX_ADD_ADDR |
| 54 | to associate additional addresses with an endpoint after calling |
| 55 | .BR bind(2). |
| 56 | .B SCTP_BINDX_REM_ADDR |
| 57 | directs SCTP to remove the given addresses from the association. |
| 58 | A caller may not remove all addresses from an association. It will |
| 59 | fail with |
| 60 | .B EINVAL. |
| 61 | .SH "RETURN VALUE" |
| 62 | On success, 0 is returned. On failure, \-1 is returned, and |
| 63 | .I errno |
| 64 | is set appropriately. |
| 65 | .SH ERRORS |
| 66 | .TP |
| 67 | .B EBADF |
| 68 | .I sd |
| 69 | is not a valid descriptor. |
| 70 | .TP |
| 71 | .B ENOTSOCK |
| 72 | .I sd |
| 73 | is a descriptor for a file, not a socket. |
| 74 | .TP |
| 75 | .B EFAULT |
| 76 | Error while copying in or out from the user address space. |
| 77 | .TP |
| 78 | .B EINVAL |
| 79 | Invalid port or address or trying to remove all addresses from an association. |
| 80 | .TP |
| 81 | .B EACCES |
| 82 | The address is protected, and the user is not the super-user. |
