NAME

spray - scatter data in order to check the network

SYNOPSIS

#include <time.h>

#include <rpcsvc/spray.h>

DESCRIPTION

This reference page describes the data structures and XDR routines used by the spray(1M) program. A

spray() function call does not exist. Refer to spray(1M) for more information.

RPC Information

Program number:

SPRAYPROG

XDR routines:

xdr_sprayarr(xdrs, arr);

XDR *xdrs;

struct sprayarr *arr;

xdr_spraycumul(xdrs, cumul);

XDR *xdrs;

struct spraycumul *cumul;

Procedures:

SPRAYPROC_SPRAY

Takes no arguments, returns no value. Increments a counter in server daemon. The server does

not return this call, so the caller should have a timeout of 0. The sprayarr is only used by the

caller, to vary the size of the UDP packets sent.

SPRAYPROC_GET

Takes no arguments, returns struct spraycumul with the values of counter and clock set to

reﬂect the number of SPRAYPROC_SPRAY

calls, and the total time (seconds and microseconds)

elapsed since the last

SPRAYPROC_CLEAR

request.

SPRAYPROC_CLEAR

Takes no arguments and returns no value. Zeros out counter and clock in preparation for calls to

SPRAYPROC_SPRAY.

Versions:

SPRAYVERS_ORIG

Structures:

struct spraycumul {

unsigned counter;

struct timeval clock;

};

struct sprayarr {

int *data;

int lnth;

};

WARNINGS

User applications that call this routine must be linked with /usr/include/librpcsvc.a

. For exam-

ple,

cc my_source.c -lrpcsvc
