Socket interface functions
Modules
| sockopt | 
Structs
| CmsgIterator | |
| CmsgSpace | A structure used to make room in a cmsghdr passed to recvmsg. The size and alignment match that of a cmsghdr followed by a T, but the fields are not accessible, as the actual types will change on a call to recvmsg. | 
| Ipv4Addr | |
| Ipv6Addr | |
| MsgFlags | |
| NetlinkAddr | |
| RecvMsg | |
| SockFlag | |
| UnixAddr | A wrapper around  | 
| in6_addr | |
| in_addr | |
| ip_mreq | |
| ipv6_mreq | |
| linger | |
| sockaddr | |
| sockaddr_in | |
| sockaddr_in6 | |
| sockaddr_storage | |
| sockaddr_un | |
| ucred | 
Enums
| AddressFamily | |
| ControlMessage | A type-safe wrapper around a single control message. More types may be added to this enum; do not exhaustively pattern-match it. Further reading | 
| InetAddr | |
| IpAddr | |
| Shutdown | |
| SockAddr | Represents a socket address | 
| SockLevel | The protocol level at which to get / set socket options. Used as an
argument to  | 
| SockType | 
Constants
Traits
| GetSockOpt | Represents a socket option that can be accessed or set. Used as an argument
to  | 
| SetSockOpt | Represents a socket option that can be accessed or set. Used as an argument
to  | 
Functions
| accept | Accept a connection on a socket | 
| accept4 | Accept a connection on a socket | 
| bind | Bind a name to a socket | 
| connect | Initiate a connection on a socket | 
| getpeername | Get the address of the peer connected to the socket  | 
| getsockname | Get the current address to which the socket  | 
| getsockopt | Get the current value for the requested socket option | 
| listen | Listen for connections on a socket | 
| recv | Receive data from a connection-oriented socket. Returns the number of bytes read | 
| recvfrom | Receive data from a connectionless or connection-oriented socket. Returns the number of bytes read and the socket address of the sender. | 
| recvmsg | Receive message in scatter-gather vectors from a socket, and optionally receive ancillary data into the provided buffer. If no ancillary data is desired, use () as the type parameter. | 
| send | Send data to a connection-oriented socket. Returns the number of bytes read | 
| sendmsg | Send data in scatter-gather vectors to a socket, possibly accompanied by ancillary data. Optionally direct the message at the given address, as with sendto. | 
| sendto | |
| setsockopt | Sets the value for the requested socket option | 
| shutdown | Shut down part of a full-duplex connection. | 
| sockaddr_storage_to_addr | |
| socket | Create an endpoint for communication | 
| socketpair | Create a pair of connected sockets |
