36.Dt SCTP_BINDX 3
37.Os
38.Sh NAME
39.Nm sctp_bindx
40.Nd bind or unbind an SCTP socket to a list of addresses.
41.Sh LIBRARY
42.Lb libc
43.Sh SYNOPSIS
44.In sys/types.h
45.In sys/socket.h
46.In netinet/sctp.h
47.Ft int
48.Fn sctp_bindx "int s" "struct sockaddr *addrs" "int num" "int type"
49.Sh DESCRIPTION
50The
51.Fn sctp_bindx
52call binds or unbinds a address or a list of addresses to an
53SCTP endpoint.
54This allows a user to bind a subset of
55addresses.
56The
57.Fn sctp_bindx
58call operates similarly to
59.Fn bind
60but allows a list of addresses and also allows a bind or an
61unbind.
62The argument
63.Fa s
64must be a valid SCTP socket descriptor.
65The argument
66.Fa addrs
67is a list of addresses (where the list may be only 1 in
68length) that the user wishes to bind or unbind to the
69socket.
70The argument
71.Fa type
72must be one of the following values.
73.Pp
74.Dv SCTP_BINDX_ADD_ADDR
75This value indicates that the listed address(es) need to
76be added to the endpoint.
77.Pp
78.Dv SCTP_BINDX_DEL_ADDR
79This value indicates that the listed address(es) need to
80be removed from the endpoint.
81.Pp
82Note that when a user adds or deletes an address to an
83association if the dynamic address flag
84.Va net.inet.sctp.auto_asconf
85is enabled any associations in the endpoint will attempt to
86have the address(es) added dynamically to the existing
87association.
88.Sh RETURN VALUES
89The call returns 0 on success and -1 upon failure.
90.Sh ERRORS
91The
92.Fn sctp_bindx
93can return the following errors.
94.Bl -tag -width Er
95.It Bq Er EINVAL
96This value is returned if the
97.Fa type
98field is not one of the allowed values (see above).
99.It Bq Er ENOMEM
100This value is returned if the number of addresses
101being added causes a memory allocation failure in
102the call.
103.It Bq Er EBADF
104The argument
105.Fa s
106is not a valid descriptor.
107.It Bq Er ENOTSOCK
108The argument
109.Fa s
110is not a socket.
