  • socket_get_option — Gets socket options for the socket
  • socket_getpeername — Queries the remote side of the given socket which may either result in host/port or in a Unix filesystem path, dependent on its type
  • socket_getsockname — Queries the local side of the given socket which may either result in host/port or in a Unix filesystem path, dependent on its type

  • socket_send — Sends data to a connected socket
  • socket_sendmsg — Send a message
  • socket_sendto — Sends a message to a socket, whether it is connected or not
  • socket_set_block — Sets blocking mode on a socket resource
  • socket_set_nonblock — Sets nonblocking mode for file descriptor fd
  • socket_set_option — Sets socket options for the socket
