Modules

Structs

AlgAddr
CmsgIterator
IpMembershipRequest	Request for multicast socket operations
Ipv4Addr
Ipv6Addr
Ipv6MembershipRequest	Request for ipv6 multicast socket operations
LinkAddr	Hardware Address
MsgFlags	Flags for send/recv and their relatives
NetlinkAddr
RecvMmsgData
RecvMsg
SendMmsgData
SockFlag	Additional socket options
UnixAddr	A wrapper around `sockaddr_un`.
UnixCredentials	Unix credentials of the sending process.
VsockAddr
cmsghdr
msghdr
sockaddr
sockaddr_in
sockaddr_in6
sockaddr_storage
sockaddr_un

Enums

AddressFamily	These constants specify the protocol family to be used in `socket` and `socketpair`
ControlMessage	A type-safe zero-copy wrapper around a single control message, as used wih `sendmsg`. More types may be added to this enum; do not exhaustively pattern-match it.
ControlMessageOwned	A type-safe wrapper around a single control message, as used with `recvmsg`.
InetAddr
IpAddr
Shutdown
SockAddr	Represents a socket address
SockLevel	The protocol level at which to get / set socket options. Used as an argument to `getsockopt` and `setsockopt`.
SockProtocol	Constants used in `socket` and `socketpair` to specify the protocol to use.
SockType	These constants are used to specify the communication semantics when creating a socket with `socket()`

Traits

GetSockOpt	Represents a socket option that can be accessed or set. Used as an argument to `getsockopt`
SetSockOpt	Represents a socket option that can be accessed or set. Used as an argument to `setsockopt`

Functions

accept	Accept a connection on a socket
accept4	Accept a connection on a socket
bind	Bind a name to a socket
connect	Initiate a connection on a socket
getpeername	Get the address of the peer connected to the socket `fd`.
getsockname	Get the current address to which the socket `fd` is bound.
getsockopt	Get the current value for the requested socket option
listen	Listen for connections on a socket
recv	Receive data from a connection-oriented socket. Returns the number of bytes read
recvfrom	Receive data from a connectionless or connection-oriented socket. Returns the number of bytes read and, for connectionless sockets, the socket address of the sender.
recvmmsg	An extension of `recvmsg` that allows the caller to receive multiple messages from a socket using a single system call. This has performance benefits for some applications.
recvmsg	Receive message in scatter-gather vectors from a socket, and optionally receive ancillary data into the provided buffer. If no ancillary data is desired, use () as the type parameter.
send	Send data to a connection-oriented socket. Returns the number of bytes read
sendmmsg	An extension of `sendmsg` that allows the caller to transmit multiple messages on a socket using a single system call. This has performance benefits for some applications.
sendmsg	Send data in scatter-gather vectors to a socket, possibly accompanied by ancillary data. Optionally direct the message at the given address, as with sendto.
sendto	Send a message to a socket
setsockopt	Sets the value for the requested socket option
shutdown	Shut down part of a full-duplex connection.
sockaddr_storage_to_addr	Return the appropriate `SockAddr` type from a `sockaddr_storage` of a certain size.
socket	Create an endpoint for communication
socketpair	Create a pair of connected sockets
