.Sh DESCRIPTION
The
.Fn shutdown
system call causes all or part of a full-duplex connection on
the socket associated with the file descriptor
.Fa s
to be shut down.
system call disables sends or receives on a socket.
The
.Fa how
argument specifies the type of shutdown.
Possible values are:
.Bl -tag -width SHUT_RDWR
.It Dv SHUT_RD
further receives will be disallowed.
Further receives will be disallowed.
.It Dv SHUT_WR
further sends will be disallowed.
Further sends will be disallowed.
This may cause actions specific to the protocol family of the socket
.Fa s
to happen; see
.Sx IMPLEMENTATION NOTES .
.It Dv SHUT_RDWR
further sends and receives will be disallowed.
Further sends and receives will be disallowed.
Implies SHUT_WR.

If the file descriptor
.Fa s
is associated with a
.Dv SOCK_STREAM
socket, all or part of the full-duplex connection will be shut down.
