.SH DESCRIPTION
|
||||
The
|
||||
.BR getrpcent_r (),
|
||||
.BR getrpcbyname_r (),
|
||||
and
|
||||
.BR getrpcbynumber_r ()
|
||||
functions are the reentrant equivalents of, respectively,
|
||||
.BR getrpcent (3),
|
||||
.BR getrpcbyname (3),
|
||||
and
|
||||
.BR getrpcbynumber (3).
|
||||
They differ in the way that the
|
||||
.I rpcent
|
||||
structure is returned,
|
||||
and in the function calling signature and return value.
|
||||
This manual page describes just the differences from
|
||||
the non-reentrant functions.
|
||||
|
||||
Instead of returning a pointer to a statically allocated
|
||||
.I rpcent
|
||||
structure as the function result,
|
||||
these functions copy the structure into the location pointed to by
|
||||
.IR result_buf .
|
||||
|
||||
The
|
||||
.I buf
|
||||
array is used to store the string fields pointed to by the returned
|
||||
.I rpcent
|
||||
structure.
|
||||
(The non-reentrant functions allocate these strings in static storage.)
|
||||
The size of this array is specified in
|
||||
.IR buflen .
|
||||
If
|
||||
.I buf
|
||||
is too small, the call fails with the error
|
||||
.BR ERANGE ,
|
||||
and the caller must try again with a larger buffer.
|
||||
(A buffer of length 1024 bytes should be sufficient for most applications.)
|
||||
.\" I can find no information on the required/recommended buffer size;
|
||||
.\" the non-reentrant functions use a 1024 byte buffer -- mtk.
|
||||
|
||||
If the function call successfully obtains an RPC record, then
|
||||
.I *result
|
||||
is set pointing to
|
||||
.IR result_buf ;
|
||||
otherwise,
|
||||
.I *result
|
||||
is set to NULL.
|
||||
.SH "RETURN VALUE"
|
||||
On success, these functions return 0.
|
||||
On error, a positive error number is returned.
|
||||
|
||||
On error, record not found
|
||||
.RB ( getrpcbyname_r (),
|
||||
.BR getrpcbynumber_r ()),
|
||||
or end of input
|
||||
.RB ( getrpcent_r ())
|
||||
.I result
|
||||
is set to NULL.
|
||||
.SH ERRORS
|
||||
.TP
|
||||
.B ENOENT
|
||||
.RB ( getrpcent_r ())
|
||||
No more records in database.
|
||||
.TP
|
||||
.B ERANGE
|
||||
.I buf
|
||||
is too small.
|
||||
Try again with a larger buffer
|
||||
(and increased
|
||||
.IR buflen ).
|
||||
.SH "CONFORMING TO"
|
||||
These functions are GNU extensions.
|
||||
Functions with similar names exist on some other systems,
|
||||
though typically with different calling signatures.
