NAME

nbd_aio_connect_socket - connect directly to a connected socket

SYNOPSIS

#include <libnbd.h>
int nbd_aio_connect_socket (
      struct nbd_handle *h, int sock
    );

DESCRIPTION

Begin connecting to the connected socket "fd". Parameters behave as documented in nbd_connect_socket(3).

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". For more information see "Non-NULL parameters" in libnbd(3).
