NAME¶
nbd_aio_connect - connect to the NBD server
SYNOPSIS¶
#include <libnbd.h> int nbd_aio_connect ( struct nbd_handle *h, const struct sockaddr *addr, socklen_t addrlen );
DESCRIPTION¶
Begin connecting to the NBD server. The "addr" and "addrlen" parameters specify the address of the socket to connect to.
You can check if the connection attempt is still underway by calling nbd_aio_is_connecting(3). If nbd_set_opt_mode(3) is enabled, the connection is ready for manual option negotiation once nbd_aio_is_negotiating(3) returns true; otherwise, the connection attempt will include the NBD handshake, and is ready for use once nbd_aio_is_ready(3) returns true.
RETURN VALUE¶
If the call is successful the function returns 0.
ERRORS¶
On error -1 is returned.
Refer to "ERROR HANDLING" in libnbd(3) for how to get further details of the error.
The following parameters must not be NULL: "h", "addr". For more information see "Non-NULL parameters" in libnbd(3).
HANDLE STATE¶
nbd_aio_connect can be called when the handle is in the following state:
┌─────────────────────────────────────┬─────────────────────────┐ │ Handle created, before connecting │ ✅ allowed │ │ Connecting │ ❌ error │ │ Connecting & handshaking (opt_mode) │ ❌ error │ │ Connected to the server │ ❌ error │ │ Connection shut down │ ❌ error │ │ Handle dead │ ❌ error │ └─────────────────────────────────────┴─────────────────────────┘
