rpc_localaddr9
Discover local endpoint address for an rpc client
Usage
int rpc_localaddr(struct rpc_clnt * clnt, struct sockaddr * buf, size_t buflen);
Arguments
clnt
RPC client structure
buf
target buffer
buflen
size of target buffer, in bytes
Overview
Returns zero and fills in “buf” and “buflen” if successful; otherwise, a negative errno is returned.
This works even if the underlying transport is not currently connected, or if the upper layer never previously provided a source address.
The result of this function call is transient: multiple calls in succession may give different results, depending on how local networking configuration changes over time.
