PARAMETERS
The following table summarizes the relevance of input and output para-
meters before and after t_getprotaddr() is called:

Notes: This is a meaningful parameter. The content of the object
pointed to by y is meaningful. This is a meaningful but optional para-
meter. The content of the object pointed to by o is meaningful. This
is not a meaningful parameter. Specifies a file descriptor returned by
the t_open() function that identifies the transport endpoint through
which data is sent. Specifies the location to hold the local address,
if any, currently bound to fd. It points to a structure of type
t_bind, with the following fields The maximum size of the address
buffer. Points to the buffer where the address is to be placed. In re-
turn, the buf field of boundaddr points to the address, if any, that is
currently bound to fd. Specifies the length of the address. If the
transport endpoint is in the T_UNBND state, zero is returned in the len
field. Specifies the location to hold the remote address, if any, that
is currently connected to fd. It points to a structure of the type
t_bind, with the following fields: The maximum size of the address
buffer. Points to the buffer where the address is to be placed. The
buf field of peeraddr points to the address, if any, currently con-
nected to fd. Specifies the length of the address. If the transport
endpoint is not in the T_DATAXFER state, zero is returned in this
field.
VALID STATES
The t_getprotaddr() function can be called in all the transport
provider states, except T_UNINIT.
DESCRIPTION
The t_getprotaddr() function returns local and remote protocol ad-
dresses currently associated with the transport endpoint specified by
fd.
RETURN VALUES
Upon successful completion, a value of zero is returned. If the trans-
port endpoint is in the T_UNBND state, zero is returned in the len
field of boundaddr (boundaddr->addr.len).
If the transport endpoint is not in the T_DATAXFER state, then zero is
returned in the len field of peeraddr (peeraddr->addr.len = 0). On
failure, a value of -1 is returned and t_errno is set to indicate the
error.
ERRORS
If the t_getprotaddr() function fails, t_errno may be set to one of the
following values: The specified file descriptor does note refer to a
transport endpoint. The number of bytes allocated for an incoming ar-
gument (maxlen) is greater than zero but not sufficient to store the
value of that argument. A system error has occurred during execution
of this function. This error indicates that a communication problem
has been detected between XTI and the transport provider for which
there is no other suitable XTI(t_errno).
