UDP(4)                   BSD Kernel Interfaces Manual                   UDP(4)

NAME
     udp -- Internet User Datagram Protocol

SYNOPSIS
     #include <sys/socket.h>
     #include <netinet/in.h>

     int
     socket(AF_INET, SOCK_DGRAM, _);

DESCRIPTION
     UDP is a simple, unreliable datagram protocol which is used to support the SOCK_DGRAM abstraction for
     the Internet protocol family.  UDP sockets are connectionless, and are normally used with the sendto
     and recvfrom calls, though the connect(2) call may also be used to fix the destination for future pack-ets packets
     ets (in which case the recv(2) or read(2) and send(2) or write(2) system calls may be used).

     UDP address formats are identical to those used by TCP.  In particular UDP provides a port identifier
     in addition to the normal Internet address format.  Note that the UDP port space is separate from the
     TCP port space (i.e. a UDP port may not be ``connected'' to a TCP port).  In addition broadcast packets
     may be sent (assuming the underlying network supports this) by using a reserved ``broadcast address'';
     this address is network interface dependent.

     Options at the IP transport level may be used with UDP; see ip(4).

DIAGNOSTICS
     A socket operation may fail with one of the following errors returned:

     [EISCONN]        when trying to establish a connection on a socket which already has one, or when try-ing trying
                      ing to send a datagram with the destination address specified and the socket is
                      already connected;

     [ENOTCONN]       when trying to send a datagram, but no destination address is specified, and the
                      socket hasn't been connected;

     [ENOBUFS]        when the system runs out of memory for an internal data structure;

     [EADDRINUSE]     when an attempt is made to create a socket with a port which has already been allo-cated; allocated;
                      cated;

     [EADDRNOTAVAIL]  when an attempt is made to create a socket with a network address for which no network
                      interface exists.
