socketpair(d, type, protocol, sv)
int d, type, protocol;
int sv[2];

Description | |
The socketpair
call creates an unnamed pair of connected sockets in the specified
domain d, of the specified type, and using the optionally
specified protocol. The descriptors used in referencing the
new sockets are returned in sv[0] and sv[1]. The two
sockets are indistinguishable.
This intrinsic is implemented for AF_UNIX sockets only.
Return Value | |
If the call is successful, a 0 is returned. If the call fails, a -1 is returned and an error code is stored in errno. Errors | |
The following errors are returned by socketpair: - [EMFILE]
Too many descriptors are in use by this process.
- [EAFNOSUPPORT]
The specified address family is not supported on this
machine.
- [EPROTONOSUPPORT]
The specified protocol is not supported on this machine.
- [EOPNOSUPPORT]

pairs.
- [EFAULT]
