nbd_aio_connect_vsock - connect to the NBD server over AF_VSOCK socket
#include <libnbd.h>
int nbd_aio_connect_vsock (
struct nbd_handle *h, uint32_t cid, uint32_t port
);Begin connecting to the NBD server over the AF_VSOCK protocol to the server cid:port. Parameters behave as documented in nbd_connect_vsock(3).
You can check if the connection attempt is still underway by calling nbd_aio_is_connecting(3). If nbd_set_opt_mode(3) is enabled, the connection is ready for manual option negotiation once nbd_aio_is_negotiating(3) returns true; otherwise, the connection attempt will include the NBD handshake, and is ready for use once nbd_aio_is_ready(3) returns true.
If the call is successful the function returns 0.
On error -1 is returned.
Refer to "ERROR HANDLING" in libnbd(3) for how to get further details of the error.
The following parameters must not be NULL: h. For more information see "Non-NULL parameters" in libnbd(3).
nbd_aio_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 │
└─────────────────────────────────────┴─────────────────────────┘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_AIO_CONNECT_VSOCK 1nbd_aio_is_connecting(3), nbd_aio_is_negotiating(3), nbd_aio_is_ready(3), nbd_connect_vsock(3), nbd_create(3), nbd_set_opt_mode(3), libnbd(3).
