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