.Sh NAME
|

.Nm rpc
|
|
.Nd library routines for remote procedure calls
|
|
.Sh LIBRARY
|
|
.Lb libc
|
|
.Sh SYNOPSIS
|
|
.In rpc/rpc.h
|
|
.In netconfig.h
|
|
.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
These
|
|
routines allow C language programs to make procedure
|
|
calls on other machines across a network.
|
|
First, the client sends a request to the server.
|
|
On receipt of the request, the server calls a dispatch routine
|
|
to perform the requested service, and then sends back a reply.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
All
|
|
RPC routines require the header
|
|
.Aq Pa rpc/rpc.h .
|
|
Routines that take a
|
|
.Vt "struct netconfig"
|
|
also require that
|
|
.Aq Pa netconfig.h
|
|
be included.
|
|
.Sh Nettype
|
|
Some of the high-level
|
|
RPC interface routines take a
|
|
.Fa nettype
|
|
string as one of the arguments
|
|
(for example,
|
|
.Fn clnt_create ,
|
|
.Fn svc_create ,
|
|
.Fn rpc_reg ,
|
|
.Fn rpc_call ) .
|
|
This string defines a class of transports which can be used
|
|
for a particular application.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The
|
|
.Fa nettype
|
|
argument
|
|
can be one of the following:
|
|
.Bl -tag -width datagram_v
|
|
.It netpath
|
|
Choose from the transports which have been
|
|
indicated by their token names in the
|
|
.Ev NETPATH
|
|
environment variable.
|
|
.Ev NETPATH
|
|
is unset or
|
|
.Dv NULL ,
|
|
it defaults to
|
|
.Qq visible .
|
|
.Qq netpath
|
|
is the default
|
|
.Fa nettype .
|
|
.It visible
|
|
Choose the transports which have the visible flag (v)
|
|
set in the
|
|
.Pa /etc/netconfig
|
|
file.
|
|
.It circuit_v
|
|
This is same as
|
|
.Qq visible
|
|
except that it chooses only the connection oriented transports
|
|
(semantics
|
|
.Qq tpi_cots
|
|
or
|
|
.Qq tpi_cots_ord )
|
|
from the entries in the
|
|
.Pa /etc/netconfig
|
|
file.
|
|
.It datagram_v
|
|
This is same as
|
|
.Qq visible
|
|
except that it chooses only the connectionless datagram transports
|
|
(semantics
|
|
.Qq tpi_clts )
|
|
from the entries in the
|
|
.Pa /etc/netconfig
|
|
file.
|
|
.It circuit_n
|
|
This is same as
|
|
.Qq netpath
|
|
except that it chooses only the connection oriented datagram transports
|
|
(semantics
|
|
.Qq tpi_cots
|
|
or
|
|
.Qq tpi_cots_ord ) .
|
|
.It datagram_n
|
|
This is same as
|
|
.Qq netpath
|
|
except that it chooses only the connectionless datagram transports
|
|
(semantics
|
|
.Qq tpi_clts ) .
|
|
.It udp
|
|
This refers to Internet UDP, both version 4 and 6.
|
|
.It tcp
|
|
This refers to Internet TCP, both version 4 and 6.
|
|
.El
|
|
.Pp
|
|
If
|
|
.Fa nettype
|
|
is
|
|
.Dv NULL ,
|
|
it defaults to
|
|
.Qq netpath .
|
|
The transports are tried in left to right order in the
|
|
.Ev NETPATH
|
|
variable or in top to down order in the
|
|
.Pa /etc/netconfig
|
|
file.
|
|
.Sh Derived Types
|

The derived types used in the RPC interfaces are defined as follows:
