If +.Fn sockatmark +returns 1, the next read will return data +after the mark. Otherwise (assuming out of band data has arrived), +the next read will provide data sent by the client prior +to transmission of the out of band signal. The routine used +in the remote login process to flush output on receipt of an +interrupt or quit signal is shown below. +It reads the normal data up to the mark (to discard it), +then reads the out-of-band byte. +.Bd -literal -offset indent +#include <sys/socket.h> + ... +oob() +{ + int out = FWRITE, mark; + char waste[BUFSIZ]; + + /* flush local terminal output */ + ioctl(1, TIOCFLUSH, (char *)&out); + for (;;) { + if ((mark = sockatmark(rem)) < 0) { + perror("sockatmark"); + break; + } + if (mark) + break; + (void) read(rem, waste, sizeof (waste)); + } + if (recv(rem, &mark, 1, MSG_OOB) < 0) { + perror("recv"); + ... + } + ... +} +.Ed +.Sh RETURN VALUES +Upon successful completion, the +.Fn sockatmark +function returns the value 1 if the read pointer is pointing at +the OOB mark, 0 if it is not.
