NAME

rpc - library routines for remote procedure calls
 

SYNOPSIS

cc [ flag ... ] file ... -lnsl [ library ... ]
#include <rpc/rpc.h>
#include <netconfig.h>

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.

All RPC routines require the header <rpc/rpc.h>. Routines that take a netconfig structure also require that <netconfig.h> be included. Applications using RPC and XDR routines should be linked with the libnsl library.  

Multithread Considerations

In the case of multithreaded applications, the -mt option must be specified on the command line at compilation time to enable a thread-specific version of rpc_createerr(). See rpc_clnt_create(3NSL) and threads(5).

When used in multithreaded applications, client-side routines are MT-Safe. CLIENT handles can be shared between threads; however, in this implementation, requests by different threads are serialized (that is, the first request will receive its results before the second request is sent). See rpc_clnt_create(3NSL).

When used in multithreaded applications, server-side routines are usually Unsafe. In this implementation the service transport handle, SVCXPRT contains a single data area for decoding arguments and encoding results. See rpc_svc_create(3NSL). Therefore, this structure cannot be freely shared between threads that call functions that do this. Routines that are affected by this restriction are marked as unsafe for MT applications. See rpc_svc_calls(3NSL).  

Nettyp

Some of the high-level RPC interface routines take a nettype string as one of the parameters (for example, clnt_create(), svc_create(), rpc_reg(), rpc_call()). This string defines a class of transports which can be used for a particular application.

nettype can be one of the following:

netpath

Choose from the transports which have been indicated by their token names in the NETPATH environment variable. If NETPATH is unset or NULL, it defaults to visible. netpath is the default nettype.

visible

Choose the transports which have the visible flag (v) set in the /etc/netconfig file.

circuit_v

This is same as visible except that it chooses only the connection oriented transports (semantics tpi_cots or tpi_cots_ord) from the entries in the /etc/netconfig file.

datagram_v

This is same as visible except that it chooses only the connectionless datagram transports (semantics tpi_clts) from the entries in the /etc/netconfig file.

circuit_n

This is same as netpath except that it chooses only the connection oriented datagram transports (semantics tpi_cots or tpi_cots_ord).

datagram_n

This is same as netpath except that it chooses only the connectionless datagram transports (semantics tpi_clts).

udp

This refers to Internet UDP.

tcp

This refers to Internet TCP.

If nettype is NULL, it defaults to netpath. The transports are tried in left to right order in the NETPATH variable or in top to down order in the /etc/netconfig file.  

Derived Types

In a 64-bit environment, the derived types are defined as follows:

typedef	uint32_t	rpcprog_t;
typedef	uint32_t	rpcvers_t;
typedef
typedef
typedef
typedef

In a 32-bit environment, the derived types are defined as follows:

typedef	unsigned long	rpcprog_t;
typedef	unsigned long	rpcvers_t;
typedef
typedef
typedef
typedef

Data Structures

Some of the data structures used by the RPC package are shown below.  

The AUTH Structure

union  des_block  {
       struct  {
       u_int32  high;
       u_int32  low;
       }  key;

*/
typedef  struct  {
       struct opaque_auth ah_cred;
       struct opaque_auth ah_verf;

The CLIENT Structure

/*

*/
       typedef  struct  {
       AUTH    *cl_auth;       /* authenticator */
       struct clnt_ops {
             enum clnt_stat (*cl_call)();   /* call remote procedure */
             void (*cl_abort)();            /* abort a call */
             void (*cl_geterr)();           /* get specific error code */
             bool_t (*cl_freeres)();        /* frees results */
             void (*cl_destroy)();          /* destroy this structure */

            char       *cl_netid;                   /* network identifier */
            char       *cl_tp;                      /* device name */
