The description of CMSG_FIRSTHDR used two variables (mhdr and msg) to reference the same thing. Use msghdr consistency across the manual page instead.

|

.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
The control message API is used to construct ancillary data objects for
|
|
use in control messages sent and received across sockets.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
Control messages are passed around by the
|
|
.Xr recvmsg 2
|
|
and
|
|
.Xr sendmsg 2
|
|
system calls.
|
|
The
|
|
.Vt cmsghdr
|
|
structure, described in
|
|
.Xr recvmsg 2 ,
|
|
is used to specify a chain of control messages.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
These routines should be used instead of directly accessing the control
|
|
message header members and data buffers as they ensure that necessary
|
|
alignment constraints are met.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The following routines are provided:
|
|
.Bl -tag -width Ds
|
|
.It Fn CMSG_DATA cmsg
|
|
This routine accesses the data portion of the control message header
|
|
.Fa cmsg .
|
|
It ensures proper alignment constraints on the beginning of ancillary
|
|
data are met.
|
|
.It Fn CMSG_FIRSTHDR msghdr
|
|
This routine accesses the first control message attached to the
|
|
message
|
|
.Fa msghdr .
|
|
If no control messages are attached to the message, this routine
|
|
returns
|
|
.Dv NULL .
|
|
.It Fn CMSG_LEN len
|
|
This routine determines the size in bytes of a control message,
|
|
which includes the control message header.
|
|
.Fa len
|
|
specifies the length of the data held by the control message.
|
|
This value is what is normally stored in the
|
|
.Fa cmsg_len
|
|
of each control message.
|
|
This routine accounts for any alignment constraints on the beginning of
|
|
ancillary data.
|
|
.It Fn CMSG_NXTHDR msghdr cmsg
|
|
This routine returns the location of the control message following
|
|
.Fa cmsg
|
|
in the message
|
|
.Fa msghdr .
|
|
If
|
|
.Fa cmsg
|
|
is the last control message in the chain, this routine returns
|
|
.Dv NULL .
|
|
.It Fn CMSG_SPACE len
|
|
This routine determines the size in bytes needed to hold a control
|
|
message and its contents of length
|
|
.Fa len ,
|
|
which includes the control message header.
|
|
This value is what is normally stored in
|
|
.Fa msg_msgcontrollen .
|
|
This routine accounts for any alignment constraints on the beginning of
|
|
ancillary data as well as any needed to pad the next control message.
|
|
.El
|
|
.Sh EXAMPLES
|
|
The following example constructs a control message containing a file descriptor
|
|
in the parent process and passes it over a pre-shared socket over the child
|
|
process.
|
|
Then the child process sends a "hello" string to the parent process using the
|
|
received file descriptor.
