| 21 | .SH DESCRIPTION |
| 22 | .BR sctp_send |
| 23 | is a wrapper library function that can be used to send a message from a socket |
| 24 | without the use of the CMSG header structures. |
| 25 | .I sd |
| 26 | is the socket descriptor from which the message pointed to by |
| 27 | .I msg |
| 28 | of length |
| 29 | .I len |
| 30 | is sent. |
| 31 | .I sinfo |
| 32 | is a pointer to a sctp_sndrcvinfo structure. |
| 33 | .I flags |
| 34 | parameter is composed of a bitwise OR of the flags that can be be passed as |
| 35 | the 3rd argument of a standard sendmsg() call. |
| 36 | .SH "RETURN VALUE" |
| 37 | On success, |
| 38 | .BR sctp_sendmsg |
| 39 | returns the number of bytes sent or -1 if an error occurred. |
