.Sh SYNOPSIS
|
|
.In sys/types.h
|

.In sys/socket.h
|
|

|
|
.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn connectat
|
|
system call initiates a connection on a socket.
|
|
It works just like the
|
|
.Xr connect 2
|
|
system call with two exceptions:
|
|
.Pp
|
|
.Bl -enum -offset indent -compact
|
|
.It
|
|
It is limited to sockets in the PF_LOCAL domain.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
.It
|
|
If the file path stored in the
|
|
.Fa sun_path
|
|
field of the sockaddr_un structure is a relative path, it is located relative
|
|
to the directory associated with the file descriptor
|
|
.Fa fd .
|
|
If
|
|
.Fn connectat
|
|
is passed the special value
|
|
.Dv AT_FDCWD
|
|
in the
|
|
.Fa fd
|
|
parameter, the current working directory is used and the behavior is identical
|
|
to a call to
|
|
.Xr connect 2 .
|
|
.El
|
|
.Sh RETURN VALUES
|
|
.Rv -std connectat
|
|
.Sh ERRORS
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn connectat
|
|
system call may fail with the same errors as the
|
|
.Xr connect 2
|
|
system call for a UNIX domain socket or with the following errors:
|
|
.Bl -tag -width Er
|
|
.It Bq Er EBADF
|
|
The
|
|
.Fa sun_path
|
|
field does not specify an absolute path and the
|
|
.Fa fd
|
|
argument is neither
|
|
.Dv AT_FDCWD
|
|
nor a valid file descriptor.
|
|
.It Bq Er ENOTDIR
|
|
The
|
|
.Fa sun_path
|
|
field is not an absolute path and
|
|
.Fa fd
|
|
is neither
|
|
.Dv AT_FDCWD
|
|
nor a file descriptor associated with a directory.
