https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=3D245817 Bug ID: 245817 Summary: sendto() can return ENOTCONN on SOCK_STREAM unix socket, which is not documented Product: Documentation Version: Latest Hardware: Any OS: Any Status: New Severity: Affects Only Me Priority: --- Component: Manual Pages Assignee: bugs@FreeBSD.org Reporter: knan-bfo@modirum.com CC: doc@FreeBSD.org Attachment #213673 text/plain mime type: Created attachment 213673 --> https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/attachment.cgi?id=3D213673&action= =3Dedit Minimal test program send(2) manpage currently states "The send() function may be used only when= the socket is in a connected state, while sendto(), sendmsg() and sendmmsg() m= ay be used at any time." This seems inaccurate. Doing a sendto() on an unconnected SOCK_STREAM unix socket results in an ENOTCONN error. ENOTCONN is not a documented possible error from sendto. Small c testcase showing the behaviour attached. Suggested manpage patch submitted: https://reviews.freebsd.org/D24530 --=20 You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.=
