== DESCRIPTION
|
|
|
|
This page documents the various standard options that can be set or
|
|
retrieved on objects using IPC.
|
|
|
|
The option names should always be used by their symbolic definitions.
|
|
|
|
In the following list of options, the name of the option is supplied,
|
|
along with the data type of the underlying value.
|
|
|
|
Some options are only meaningful or supported in certain contexts, or may
|
|
have other access restrictions.
|
|
An attempt has been made to include details about such restrictions in the
|
|
description of the option.
|
|
|
|
NOTE: The availability of the following options is platform-specific,
|
|
as the implementations of IPC are quite different on Windows and POSIX systems.
|
|
|
|
[[NNG_OPT_IPC_PERMISSIONS]]((`NNG_OPT_IPC_PERMISSIONS`))::
|
|
(`int`)
|
|
This write-only option may be applied to a listener to configure the
|
|
permissions that are used on the UNIX domain socket created by that listener.
|
|
This property is only supported on POSIX systems.
|
|
The value is of type `int`, representing the normal permission bits
|
|
on a file, such as `0600` (typically meaning read-write to the owner, and
|
|
no permissions for anyone else.)
|
|
The default is system-specific, most often `0644`.
|
|
+
|
|
IMPORTANT: Not all systems validate these permissions.
|
|
In particular, illumos and Solaris are known to ignore these permission
|
|
settings when connecting.
|
|
+
|
|
NOTE: Normally both read and write permission will be necessary for a
|
|
peer dialer to connect.
|
|
See your system documentation for UNIX domain sockets for more information.
|
|
+
|
|
NOTE: The _umask_ of the process is *not* applied to these bits.
|
|
+
|
|
TIP: The best practice for limiting access is to place the socket in a
|
|
directory writable only by the server, and only readable and searchable
|
|
by clients.
|
|
All mainstream POSIX systems will fail to permit a client to connect
|
|
to a socket located in a directory for which the client lacks search (execute)
|
|
permission.
|
|
|
|
[[NNG_OPT_IPC_SECURITY_DESCRIPTOR]]((`NNG_OPT_IPC_SECURITY_DESCRIPTOR`))::
|
|
(`PSECURITY_DESCRIPTOR`)
|
|
This write-only option may be used on listeners on Windows platforms to
|
|
configure the `SECURITY_DESCRIPTOR` that is used when creating the underlying
|
|
named pipe.
|
|
The value is a pointer, `PSECURITY_DESCRIPTOR`, and may only be
|
|
applied to listeners that have not been started yet.
|
|
|
|
=== Common Platform Specific Options
|
|
|
|
The following options are supported by this transport when the underlying platform supports them:
|
|
|
|
* xref:nng_options.5.adoc#NNG_OPT_PEER_GID[`NNG_OPT_PEER_GID`] (also available as `NNG_OPT_IPC_PEER_GID`)
|
|
* xref:nng_options.5.adoc#NNG_OPT_PEER_PID[`NNG_OPT_PEER_PID`] (also available as `NNG_OPT_IPC_PEER_PID`)
|
|
* xref:nng_options.5.adoc#NNG_OPT_PEER_UID[`NNG_OPT_PEER_UID`] (also available as `NNG_OPT_IPC_PEER_UID`)
|
|
* xref:nng_options.5.adoc#NNG_OPT_PEER_ZONEID[`NNG_OPT_PEER_ZONEID`] (also available as `NNG_OPT_IPC_PEER_ZONEID`)
|
|
|
|
=== Inherited Options
|
|
|
|
Generally, the following option values are also available when appropriate for the context:
|
|
|
|
* xref:nng_options.5.adoc#NNG_OPT_LOCADDR[`NNG_OPT_LOCADDR`]
|
|
* xref:nng_options.5.adoc#NNG_OPT_REMADDR[`NNG_OPT_REMADDR`]
