   socketcall    ( 2 )

системные вызовы сокетов (socket system calls)

Имя (Name)

socketcall - socket system calls

Синопсис (Synopsis)

#include <linux/net.h>        /* Definition of SYS_* constants */
       #include <sys/syscall.h>      /* Definition of SYS_socketcall */
       #include <unistd.h>

int syscall(SYS_socketcall, int call, unsigned long *args);

Note: glibc provides no wrapper for socketcall(), necessitating the use of syscall(2).


Описание (Description)

socketcall() is a common kernel entry point for the socket system
       calls.  call determines which socket function to invoke.  args
       points to a block containing the actual arguments, which are
       passed through to the appropriate call.

User programs should call the appropriate functions by their usual names. Only standard library implementors and kernel hackers need to know about socketcall().

Стандарты (Conforming to)

This call is specific to Linux, and should not be used in
       programs intended to be portable.

Примечание (Note)

On some architectures—for example, x86-64 and ARM—there is no
       socketcall() system call; instead socket(2), accept(2), bind(2),
       and so on really are implemented as separate system calls.

On x86-32, socketcall() was historically the only entry point for the sockets API. However, starting in Linux 4.3, direct system calls are provided on x86-32 for the sockets API. This facilitates the creation of seccomp(2) filters that filter sockets system calls (for new user-space binaries that are compiled to use the new entry points) and also provides a (very) small performance improvement.
