=head1 NAME
nbd_connect_vsock - connect to NBD server over AF_VSOCK protocol
=head1 SYNOPSIS
#include <libnbd.h>
int nbd_connect_vsock (
struct nbd_handle *h, uint32_t cid, uint32_t port
);
=head1 DESCRIPTION
Connect (synchronously) over the C<AF_VSOCK> protocol from a
virtual machine to an NBD server, usually running on the host. The
C<cid> and C<port> parameters specify the server address. Usually
C<cid> should be C<2> (to connect to the host), and C<port> might be
C<10809> or another port number assigned to you by the host
administrator.
Not all systems support C<AF_VSOCK>; to determine if libnbd was
built on a system with vsock support, see L<nbd_supports_vsock(3)>.
This call returns when the connection has been made. By default,
this proceeds all the way to transmission phase, but
L<nbd_set_opt_mode(3)> can be used for manual control over
option negotiation performed before transmission phase.
=head1 RETURN VALUE
If the call is successful the function returns C<0>.
=head1 ERRORS
On error C<-1> is returned.
Refer to L<libnbd(3)/ERROR HANDLING>
for how to get further details of the error.
The following parameters must not be NULL: C<h>.
For more information see L<libnbd(3)/Non-NULL parameters>.
=head1 HANDLE STATE
nbd_connect_vsock
can be called when the handle is in the following state:
┌─────────────────────────────────────┬─────────────────────────┐
│ Handle created, before connecting │ ✅ allowed │
│ Connecting │ ❌ error │
│ Connecting & handshaking (opt_mode) │ ❌ error │
│ Connected to the server │ ❌ error │
│ Connection shut down │ ❌ error │
│ Handle dead │ ❌ error │
└─────────────────────────────────────┴─────────────────────────┘
=head1 VERSION
This function first appeared in libnbd 1.2.
If you need to test if this function is available at compile time
check if the following macro is defined:
#define LIBNBD_HAVE_NBD_CONNECT_VSOCK 1
