getsockname — get socket name

       Names bound to sockets in the UNIX domain are inaccessible; getsockname() returns a zero length name.

Debian                                            June 4, 1993                                    GETSOCKNAME(2)

       The  getsockname()  system  call returns the current name for the specified socket.  The namelen argument
       should be initialized to indicate the amount of space pointed to by name.   On  return  it  contains  the
       actual size of the name returned (in bytes).

       The call succeeds unless:

       [EBADF]            The argument s is not a valid descriptor.

       [ECONNRESET]       The connection has been reset by the peer.

       [EINVAL]           The value of the namelen argument is not valid.

       [ENOTSOCK]         The argument s is a file, not a socket.

       [ENOBUFS]          Insufficient resources were available in the system to perform the operation.

       [EFAULT]           The name argument points to memory not in a valid part of the process address space.

       The getsockname() system call appeared in 4.2BSD.

       global variable errno is set to indicate the error.
