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