setpeer (BPX1SPR, BPX4SPR) — Preset the peer address associated with a socket

Function

The setpeer callable service presets the peer address that is associated with a socket.

Requirements

Operation	Environment
Authorization:	Supervisor state or problem state, any PSW key
Dispatchable unit mode:	Task or SRB
Cross memory mode:	PASN = HASN
AMODE (BPX1SPR):	31-bit task or SRB mode
AMODE (BPX4SPR):	64-bit task mode only
ASC mode:	Primary mode
Interrupt status:	Enabled for interrupts
Locks:	Unlocked
Control parameters:	All parameters must be addressable by the caller and in the primary address space.

Format

CALL BPX1SPR,(Socket_descriptor,
              Sockaddr_length,
              Sockaddr,
              Option,
              Return_value,
              Return_code,
              Reason_code)

AMODE 64 callers use BPX4SPR with the same parameters.

Parameters

Socket_descriptor

Supplied parameter

Type:: Integer
Length:: Fullword

The name of a fullword that contains the socket file descriptor for which the setpeer is to be done.

Sockaddr_length

Supplied and returned parameter

Type:: Integer
Length:: Fullword

The name of a field that contains the length of Sockaddr.

Sockaddr

Supplied and returned parameter

Type:: Structure
Length:: Length specified by Sockaddr_length

The name of a socket address structure that contains the peer address. See BPXYSOCK — Map SOCKADDR structure and constants for more information about the format of this field.

Option

Supplied and returned parameter

Type:: Integer
Length:: Fullword

The name of a field that indicates the conditions of the setpeer request. See BPXYSOCK — Map SOCKADDR structure and constants for more information about this field.

Return_value

Returned parameter

Type:: Integer
Length:: Fullword

The name of a fullword in which the setpeer service returns one of the following:

0 if the request is successful.
-1 if the request is not successful.

Return_code

Returned parameter

Type:: Integer
Character set:: N/A
Length:: Fullword

The name of a fullword in which the setpeer service stores the return code. The setpeer service returns Return_code only if Return_value is -1. See z/OS UNIX System Services Messages and Codes for a complete list of possible return code values. The setpeer service can return one of the following values in the Return_code parameter:

Return_code	Explanation
EBADF	The socket descriptor is incorrect. The following reason codes can accompany the return code: JRFileDesNotInUse, JRFileNotOpen.
ENOTSOCK	Socket_descriptor does not refer to a valid socket descriptor. The following reason code can accompany the return code: JRMustBeSocket.

Reason_code

Returned parameter

Type:: Integer
Length:: Fullword

The name of a fullword in which the setpeer service stores the reason code. The setpeer service returns Reason_code only if Return_value is -1. Reason_code further qualifies the Return_code value. For the reason codes, see z/OS UNIX System Services Messages and Codes.

Usage notes

The setpeer service is not supported by AF_UNIX, AF_INET, or AF_INET6.
See Callable services available to SRB mode routines for more information about programming considerations for SRB mode.

Characteristics and restrictions

There are no restrictions on the use of the setpeer service.
