The URLs of the form `help://man/<section>/<page>` link to another help page inside the help application. All previous relative page links are replaced by this new form. This doesn't change any behavior but it looks much nicer :^) Note that man doesn't handle these new links, but the previous relative links didn't work either.

## Name
|
|
|
|
recvfd - receive a file descriptor from a local socket peer
|
|
|
|
## Synopsis
|
|
|
|
```**c++
|
|
#include <sys/socket.h>
|
|
|
|
int recvfd(int sockfd, int options);
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Description
|
|
|
|
Receive an open file descriptor from a local socket peer connected via `sockfd`. This is a non-blocking call that will fail if there is no file descriptor waiting in the socket's queue.
|
|
|
|
File descriptors are sent out-of-band and do not affect the regular data streams.
|
|
|
|
The *options* argument accepts a bitmask of the following flags:
|
|
|
|
* `O_CLOEXEC`: The opened fd shall be closed on [`exec`(2)](help://man/2/exec).
|
|
|
|
## Return value
|
|
|
|
If a file descriptor is successfully received, it is returned as a non-negative integer. Otherwise, -1 is returned and `errno` is set to indicate the error.
|
|
|
|
## Errors
|
|
|
|
* `EBADF`: `sockfd` is not an open file descriptor.
|
|
* `ENOTSOCK`: `sockfd` does not refer to a socket.
|
|
* `EAFNOSUPPORT`: `sockfd` does not refer to a local domain socket.
|
|
* `EINVAL`: `sockfd` does not refer to a connected or accepted socket.
|
|
* `EAGAIN`: There is no file descriptor queued on this socket.
|
|
|
|
## History
|
|
|

`recvfd()` was first introduced in Plan 9 from User Space.
