TCP/IP Services allows the application to read data after it performs the following operations:
Example 2-15 shows a TCP client using the recv() function to read data.

The $QIO IO$_READVBLK function transfers data received from the internet host (and kept in system dynamic memory) into the address space of the user's process. After the read operation completes, the data in dynamic memory is discarded.
Example 2-16 shows a TCP client using the IO$_READVBLK function to read data into a single I/O buffer.

You can also specify a list of read buffers by omitting the
p1 and p2 arguments and passing the
list of buffers as the p6 parameter. See Section 5.5.2
for more information.
2.10 Receiving IP Multicast Datagrams
Before a host can receive (read) IP multicast datagrams destined for a particular multicast group other than all hosts group , the application must direct the host it is running on to become a member of that multicast group.
To join a group or drop membership from a group, specify the following options. Make sure you include the IN.H header file.
struct ip_mreq mreq;
if (setsockopt( sock, IPPROTO_IP, IP_ADD_MEMBERSHIP, & mreq,
sizeof(mreq)) == -1)
perror("setsockopt");
|
struct ip_mreq {
struct in_addr (imr_multiaddr); /* IP multicast address of group */
struct in_addr (imr_interface); /* local IP address of interface */
};
|
struct ip_mreq mreq;
if (setsockopt( sock, IPPROTO_IP, IP_DROP_MEMBERSHIP, &mreq,
sizeof(mreq))== -1)
perror("setsockopt");
|
To receive multicast datagrams sent to a specific UDP port, the receiving socket must have been bound to that port using the $QIO(IO$_SETMODE) system service function or the bind() Sockets API function. More than one process can receive UDP datagrams destined for the same port if the function is preceded by a setsockopt() system call that specifies the SO_REUSEPORT option.
For example:
int setreuse = 1;
if (setsockopt(sock, SOL_SOCKET, SO_REUSEPORT, &setreuse,
sizeof(setreuse)) == -1)
perror("setsockopt");
|
When the SO_REUSEPORT option is set, every incoming multicast or broadcast UDP datagram destined for the shared port is delivered to all sockets bound to that port.
Delivery of IP multicast datagrams to SOCK_RAW sockets is determined by
the protocol type of the destination.
2.11 Reading Out-of-Band Data (TCP Protocol)
Only stream-type (TCP/IP) sockets can receive out-of-band (OOB) data. Upon receiving a TCP/IP OOB character, TCP/IP Services stores a pointer in the received stream to the character that precedes the OOB character.
A read operation with a user buffer size larger than the size of the received stream up to the OOB character completes by returning to the user the received stream up to, but not including, the OOB character.
Poll the socket to determine whether additional read operations are needed before getting all the characters from the stream that precedes the OOB character.
2.11.1 Reading OOB Data (Sockets API)
You can use the
recv()
socket function with the MSG_OOB flag set to receive out-of-band data
regardless of how many of the preceding characters in the stream you
have received.
Example 2-17 shows a TCP server using the recv() function to receive out-of-band data.
| Example 2-17 Reading OOB Data (Sockets API) |
|---|
retval = recv(sock_3,(1)
message,(2)
sizeof(message),(3)
flag);(4)
if (retval == -1)
{
perror ("receive");
cleanup( 2, sock_2, sock_3);
}
else
printf (" %s\n", message);
|
To receive OOB data from a remote process, use the IO$_READVBLK function with the IO$M_INTERRUPT modifier.
To poll the socket, use a $QIO command with the IO$_SENSEMODE function and the TCPIP$C_IOCTL subfunction that specifies the SIOCATMARK operation.
If the SIOCATMARK returns a value of 0, use additional read QIOs to read more data before reading the OOB character. If the SIOCATMARK returns a value of 1, the next read QIO returns the OOB character.
These functions are useful if a socket has the OOBINLINE socket option set. The OOB character is read with the characters in the stream (IO$_READVBLK) but is not read before the preceding characters. To determine whether or not the first character in the user buffer on the next read is an OOB, poll the socket.
To get a received OOB character for a socket with the socket option OOBINLINE clear, use one of the following functions:
Example 2-18 shows how to use the IO$M_INTERRUPT modifier to read out-of-band data.
| Example 2-18 Reading OOB Data (System Services) |
|---|
/*
** Attempt to receive the OOB data from the client.
** Use the function code of IO$_READVBLK, passing the address of the
** input buffer to P1, and the OOB code, TCPIP$C_MSG_OOB, to P4.
** We support the sending and receiving of a one byte of OOB data.
*/
sysSrvSts = sys$qiow( 0, /* efn.v | 0 */
IOChanClient, /* chan.v */
IO$_READVBLK, /* func.v */
&iosb, /* iosb.r | 0 */
0, 0, /* astadr, astprm: UNUSED */
&OOBBuff, /* p1.r IO buffer */
MaxBuff, /* p2.v IO buffer size */
0, /* p3 UNUSED */
TCPIP$C_MSG_OOB, /* p4.v IO options flag */
0, 0 /* p5, p6 UNUSED */
);
if((( sysSrvSts & 1 ) != 1 ) || /* Validate the system service. */
(( iosb.cond_value & 1 ) != 1)) /* Validate the IO status. */
{
cleanup( IOChanClient );
cleanup( IOChannel );
errorExit( sysSrvSts, iosb.cond_value );
}
else
if( iosb.count == 0 )
printf( " FAILED to receive the message, no connection.\n" );
else
printf( " SUCCEEDED in receiving '%d'\n", OOBBuff );

You can use a read operation to look at data in a socket receive queue
without removing the data from the buffer. This is called
peeking.
2.12.1 Peeking at Data (Sockets API)
Use the MSG_PEEK flag with the recv() function to peek at data in the socket receive queue. Example 2-19 shows a TCP server using the recv() function with the MSG_PEEK flag to peek at received data.
