The sock_recv() function is used to receive a message from a socket. It is similar to the recv function in POSIX, but it also supports reading the data into multiple buffers in the manner of readv.

The function receives data from the socket and stores it in the provided scatter/gather vectors. The number of bytes stored in ri_data and the message flags are returned.

Notes

  • The sock_recv() function receives a message from a socket and stores it in the provided scatter/gather vectors.
  • The function supports reading the data into multiple buffers.
  • The ri_data parameter represents a list of scatter/gather vectors, where each vector contains a buffer and its length.
  • The ri_data_len parameter specifies the length of the scatter/gather vector list.
  • The received data is stored in the buffers specified by the scatter/gather vectors.
  • The number of bytes read from the socket is stored in ro_data_len.
  • The message flags are stored in ro_flags.
  • The specific behavior of the sock_recv() function may vary depending on the runtime environment and underlying networking implementation.
