I am doing a simple TCP socket programming as a test. I ported over the code from the following article:
C Socket Programming for Linux with a Server and Client Example Code
However, there are a little change I need to make, which is to set the initial sequence number (ISN) to a user-defined value on both client and server side.
Client:
#include <sys/socket.h>
#include <sys/types.h>
#include <netinet/in.h>
#include <netdb.h>
#include <stdio.h>
#include <string.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <unistd.h>
#include <errno.h>
#include <arpa/inet.h>
int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
int sockfd = 0, n = 0;
char recvBuff[1024];
struct sockaddr_in serv_addr;
if(argc != 2)
{
printf("\n Usage: %s <ip of server> \n",argv[0]);
return 1;
}
memset(recvBuff, '0',sizeof(recvBuff));
if((sockfd = socket(AF_INET, SOCK_STREAM, 0)) < 0)
{
printf("\n Error : Could not create socket \n");
return 1;
}
memset(&serv_addr, '0', sizeof(serv_addr));
serv_addr.sin_family = AF_INET;
serv_addr.sin_port = htons(5000);
if(inet_pton(AF_INET, argv[1], &serv_addr.sin_addr)<=0)
{
printf("\n inet_pton error occured\n");
return 1;
}
if( connect(sockfd, (struct sockaddr *)&serv_addr, sizeof(serv_addr)) < 0)
{
printf("\n Error : Connect Failed \n");
return 1;
}
while ( (n = read(sockfd, recvBuff, sizeof(recvBuff)-1)) > 0)
{
recvBuff[n] = 0;
if(fputs(recvBuff, stdout) == EOF)
{
printf("\n Error : Fputs error\n");
}
}
if(n < 0)
{
printf("\n Read error \n");
}
return 0;
}
Server:
#include <sys/socket.h>
#include <netinet/in.h>
#include <arpa/inet.h>
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <unistd.h>
#include <errno.h>
#include <string.h>
#include <sys/types.h>
#include <time.h>
int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
int listenfd = 0, connfd = 0;
struct sockaddr_in serv_addr;
char sendBuff[1025];
time_t ticks;
listenfd = socket(AF_INET, SOCK_STREAM, 0);
memset(&serv_addr, '0', sizeof(serv_addr));
memset(sendBuff, '0', sizeof(sendBuff));
serv_addr.sin_family = AF_INET;
serv_addr.sin_addr.s_addr = htonl(INADDR_ANY);
serv_addr.sin_port = htons(5000);
bind(listenfd, (struct sockaddr*)&serv_addr, sizeof(serv_addr));
listen(listenfd, 10);
while(1)
{
connfd = accept(listenfd, (struct sockaddr*)NULL, NULL);
ticks = time(NULL);
snprintf(sendBuff, sizeof(sendBuff), "%.24s\r\n", ctime(&ticks));
write(connfd, sendBuff, strlen(sendBuff));
close(connfd);
sleep(1);
}
}
Can someone enlighten me on which part of the code I should modify?

I'm very new to socket and TCP, I'm trying to send an array of Int to the server, do some sorting and calculating, then send back the result to the client and repeat.
I tried a few different ways, I either got the result after I close the client or got into a infinite loop.
What is the proper way to keep reading from the client until the client hit EOF?
Here is my server code.
#include <stdio.h>
#include <string.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <unistd.h>
#include <arpa/inet.h>
#include <sys/socket.h>
#include <netinet/in.h>
int main(int argc, char const *argv[]) {
struct sockaddr_in server, client;
int sock, csock, readSize, addressSize;
char buf[256];
bzero(&server, sizeof(server));
server.sin_family = PF_INET;
server.sin_addr.s_addr = inet_addr("127.0.0.1");
server.sin_port = htons(5999);
sock = socket(PF_INET, SOCK_STREAM, 0);
bind(sock, (struct sockaddr*)&server, sizeof(server));
listen(sock, 5);
addressSize = sizeof(client);
csock = accept(sock, (struct sockaddr *)&client, &addressSize);
int values[5];
while (read(csock, values, sizeof(values))) {
// Some sorting and calculating here
for (int i = 0; i < 5; i++) {
printf("%d ", values[i]);
}
}
close(sock);
return 0;
}
And here is my client code.
#include <stdio.h>
#include <string.h>
#include <unistd.h>
#include <arpa/inet.h>
#include <sys/socket.h>
#include <netinet/in.h>
int main(int argc, char const *argv[]) {
struct sockaddr_in server;
char buf[256];
int sock;
bzero(&server, sizeof(server));
server.sin_family = PF_INET;
server.sin_addr.s_addr = inet_addr("127.0.0.1");
server.sin_port = htons(5999);
sock = socket(PF_INET, SOCK_STREAM, 0);
connect(sock, (struct sockaddr *)&server, sizeof(server));
while (1) {
int values[5] = {0};
for (int i = 0; i < 5; i++)
scanf("%d", &values[i]);
write(sock, values, sizeof(values));
}
return 0;
}
Thanks for your help!
On Linux, I observed that if client is terminated with Ctrl-C, then server exits when read() returns 0 to signify EOF. If client is given a Ctrl-D, the stream's error state is set and this and all future scanf calls fail without setting values. This means values retain their zero initialization, which is sent to server in each iteration of the infinite loop.
Per #user207421, recv() which I guess how read() is implemented may return on error on windows to signify and errors. In this case, server would loop with the original code.
In either case, I added error checking for most of calsl (you should also add it for inet_addr()), and the server will terminate if read() returns either -1 or 0:
server:
#include <arpa/inet.h>
#include <errno.h>
#include <netinet/in.h>
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <string.h>
#include <strings.h>
#include <sys/socket.h>
#include <unistd.h>
int main(int argc, char const *argv[]) {
struct sockaddr_in server, client;
int sock, csock;
socklen_t addressSize;
bzero(&server, sizeof(server));
server.sin_family = PF_INET;
server.sin_addr.s_addr = inet_addr("127.0.0.1");
server.sin_port = htons(5999);
sock = socket(PF_INET, SOCK_STREAM, 0);
if(sock == -1) {
printf("socket: %s\n", strerror(errno));
return 1;
}
if(bind(sock, (struct sockaddr*)&server, sizeof(server)) == -1) {
printf("bind: %s\n", strerror(errno));
return 1;
}
if(listen(sock, 5) == -1) {
printf("listen: %s\n", strerror(errno));
return 1;
}
addressSize = sizeof(client);
csock = accept(sock, (struct sockaddr *)&client, &addressSize);
if(csock == -1) {
printf("listen: %s\n", strerror(errno));
return 1;
}
int values[5];
ssize_t n;
while ((n = read(csock, values, sizeof(values)))) {
printf("read %zd\n", n);
if(n <= 0) break;
for (int i = 0; i < n / sizeof(*values); i++) {
printf("%d ", values[i]);
}
printf("\n");
}
close(sock);
return 0;
}
and client:
#include <stdio.h>
#include <string.h>
#include <unistd.h>
#include <arpa/inet.h>
#include <sys/socket.h>
#include <netinet/in.h>
#include <errno.h>
int main(int argc, char const *argv[]) {
struct sockaddr_in server;
char buf[256];
int sock;
bzero(&server, sizeof(server));
server.sin_family = PF_INET;
server.sin_addr.s_addr = inet_addr("127.0.0.1");
server.sin_port = htons(5999);
sock = socket(PF_INET, SOCK_STREAM, 0);
if(sock == -1) {
printf("socket: %s\n", strerror(errno));
return 1;
}
if(connect(sock, (struct sockaddr *)&server, sizeof(server)) == -1) {
printf("connect: %s\n", strerror(errno));
return 1;
}
while (1) {
int values[5] = {0};
for (int i = 0; i < 5; i++) {
int r = scanf("%d", &values[i]);
if(r == EOF) {
return 0;
}
}
ssize_t n = write(sock, values, sizeof(values));
if(n == -1) {
printf("write: %s\n", strerror(errno));
return 1;
}
printf("wrote %zd\n", n);
}
return 0;
}
and here is the output from the server:
$ ./server
read 20 bytes
1 2 3 4 5
and the client (note; client doesn't send partial data):
$ ./client
1
2

wrote 20

So i am following the book of UNIX network programming, and tried to write a simple daytime server from chapter 1 and client but the bind function is always returning an error, what I'm doing wrong can anyone help??

Running server is always returning -1 on bind function. and running client always prints connection error.
Thank you in advance for help.
You should check with errno to find out WHY bind() is failing when it returns -1. You can use perror() to print a human-readable description of errno to the console, or at least strerror() to get that description in a string buffer that you can then do whatever you want with.
But the most likely reason for WHY bind() is failing is that you are trying to bind() your server to port 13. On most systems, ports 0-1023 are reserved for system services, so you would need to run your app with admin rights to listen on those ports.
I have socket code and client code below. So far all that it does is establish connection with the server, but I want it to also send a file from the client to the server; even if the file has no data in it. What do I have to do to augment this code to send files? Any suggestions in code form?

I havn't tried compiling this, and this code is certainly not polished but something similar to below will do the trick :)
Modify the client end to look like this:
if( connect(sockfd, (struct sockaddr *)&serv_addr, sizeof(serv_addr)) < 0)
{
printf("\n Error : Connect Failed \n");
return 1;
}
FILE *inputFile = fopen("inputFile.txt", "rb");
if(inputFile == NULL)
{
fprintf(stderr, "oh no!");
return 1;
}
char sendBuffer[10];
// TODO: Check for errors here
int bytesRead = fread(sendBuffer, sizeof(sendBuffer), 1, inputFile);
while(!feof(inputFile))
{
//TODO: check for errors here
send(sockfd, sendBuffer, bytesRead, 0);
bytesRead = fread(sendBuffer, sizeof(sendBuffer), 1, inputFile);
}
close(sockfd);
Modify the server end to look like this:
listen(listenfd, 10);
FILE *outputFile = fopen("output.txt", "wb");
if(outputFile == null)
{
fprintf(stderr, "Something went south!");
return 1;
}
while(1)
{
connfd = accept(listenfd, (struct sockaddr*)NULL, NULL);
char recvBuff[10];
ticks = time(NULL);
int bytesReceived = recv(confd, recvBuff, 10, 0);
while(bytesReceived != 0)
{
// you should add error checking here
fwrite(recvBuff, bytesReceived, 1, outputFile);
bytesReceived = recv(confd, recvBuff, 10, 0);
}
close(connfd);
}

First of all make sure you pass the same port number to both server & client. If the port number is different, communication between server and client won't happen.
Here is the code for local machine. You can change the code a little and pass IP addresses.

Hope this helps
Excuse my long post. I would post code so that it is easier to understand the problem I am facing. It seems that if a signaled socket is added to epoll instance, epoll_wait on the epoll instance will not block. The following example has let me believe this:
#include <sys/socket.h>
#include <netinet/in.h>
#include <arpa/inet.h>
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <unistd.h>
#include <errno.h>
#include <string.h>
#include <sys/types.h>
#include <time.h>
#include <sys/epoll.h>
int MAX_EVENT_COUNT = 10;
int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
int epollfd = epoll_create( MAX_EVENT_COUNT );
if ( epollfd == -1 )
{
printf("\n Error : epoll_create \n");
return 1;
}
epoll_event ev;
memset(&ev,0,sizeof(ev));
ev.events = EPOLLIN | EPOLLET;
int pipefd[2];
if (pipe(pipefd) == -1)
{
perror("pipe");
exit(EXIT_FAILURE);
}
char ch = 'a';
write(pipefd[1], &ch, 1);
if (epoll_ctl( epollfd , EPOLL_CTL_ADD, pipefd[0], &ev ) == -1 )
{
printf("\n Error : epoll add result \n");
return 1;
}
epoll_event rawResult [MAX_EVENT_COUNT];
int32_t res = epoll_wait( epollfd, rawResult, MAX_EVENT_COUNT, -1 );
if(res!=1)
{
printf("\n Epoll problem \n");
}
else
{
printf("\n OK \n");
}
}
However the following example is pretty much the same but this time I add a signalled socket to the epoll, this time the epoll_wait call blocks

epoll_wait() will block if the file descriptors it is waiting on have no events for it to report about. In your case, I don't believe you have reached epoll_wait() yet. Assuming that your program has progressed passed connect() and accept(), then you have not written any data on the connection (on the sockfd), so epoll_wait() will not detect any events on the connfd.
This is different from your first program, where you write a byte of data on the pipefd[1] before calling epoll_wait() on pipefd[0].
