+.SH NAME
+bind \- bind a name to a socket
+.SH LIBRARY
+Standard C library
+.RI ( libc ", " \-lc )
+.SH SYNOPSIS
+.nf
+.B #include <sys/socket.h>
+.P
+.BI "int bind(int " sockfd ", const struct sockaddr *" addr ,
+.BI " socklen_t " addrlen );
+.fi
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+When a socket is created with
+.BR socket (2),
+it exists in a name space (address family) but has no address assigned to it.
+.BR bind ()
+assigns the address specified by
+.I addr
+to the socket referred to by the file descriptor
+.IR sockfd .
+.I addrlen
+specifies the size, in bytes, of the address structure pointed to by
+.IR addr .
+Traditionally, this operation is called \[lq]assigning a name to a socket\[rq].
+.P
+It is normally necessary to assign a local address using
+.BR bind ()
+before a
+.B SOCK_STREAM
+socket may receive connections (see
+.BR accept (2)).
+.P
+The rules used in name binding vary between address families.
+Consult the manual entries in Section 7 for detailed information.
+For
+.BR AF_INET ,
+see
+.BR ip (7);
+for
+.BR AF_INET6 ,
+see
+.BR ipv6 (7);
+for
+.BR AF_UNIX ,
+see
+.BR unix (7);
+for
+.BR AF_APPLETALK ,
+see
+.BR ddp (7);
+for
+.BR AF_PACKET ,
+see
+.BR packet (7);
+for
+.BR AF_X25 ,
+see
+.BR x25 (7);
+and for
+.BR AF_NETLINK ,
+see
+.BR netlink (7).
+.P
+The actual structure passed for the
+.I addr
+argument will depend on the address family.
+The
+.I sockaddr
+structure is defined as something like:
+.P
+.in +4n
+.EX
+struct sockaddr {
+ sa_family_t sa_family;
+ char sa_data[14];
+}
+.EE
+.in
+.P
+The only purpose of this structure is to cast the structure
+pointer passed in
+.I addr
+in order to avoid compiler warnings.
+See EXAMPLES below.
+.SH RETURN VALUE
+On success, zero is returned.
+On error, \-1 is returned, and
+.I errno
+is set to indicate the error.
+.SH ERRORS
+.TP
+.B EACCES
+.\" e.g., privileged port in AF_INET domain
+The address is protected, and the user is not the superuser.
+.TP
+.B EADDRINUSE
+The given address is already in use.
+.TP
+.B EADDRINUSE
+(Internet domain sockets)
+The port number was specified as zero in the socket address structure,
+but, upon attempting to bind to an ephemeral port,
+it was determined that all port numbers in the ephemeral port range
+are currently in use.
+See the discussion of
+.I /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_local_port_range
+.BR ip (7).
+.TP
+.B EBADF
+.I sockfd
+is not a valid file descriptor.
+.TP
+.B EINVAL
+The socket is already bound to an address.
+.\" This may change in the future: see
+.\" .I linux/unix/sock.c for details.
+.TP
+.B EINVAL
+.I addrlen
+is wrong, or
+.I addr
+is not a valid address for this socket's domain.
+.TP
+.B ENOTSOCK
+The file descriptor
+.I sockfd
+does not refer to a socket.
+.P
+The following errors are specific to UNIX domain
+.RB ( AF_UNIX )
+sockets:
+.TP
+.B EACCES
+Search permission is denied on a component of the path prefix.
+(See also
+.BR path_resolution (7).)
+.TP
+.B EADDRNOTAVAIL
+A nonexistent interface was requested or the requested
+address was not local.
+.TP
+.B EFAULT
+.I addr
+points outside the user's accessible address space.
+.TP
+.B ELOOP
+Too many symbolic links were encountered in resolving
+.IR addr .
+.TP
+.B ENAMETOOLONG
+.I addr
+is too long.
+.TP
+.B ENOENT
+A component in the directory prefix of the socket pathname does not exist.
+.TP
+.B ENOMEM
+Insufficient kernel memory was available.
+.TP
+.B ENOTDIR
+A component of the path prefix is not a directory.
+.TP
+.B EROFS
+The socket inode would reside on a read-only filesystem.
+.SH STANDARDS
+POSIX.1-2008.
+.SH HISTORY
+POSIX.1-2001, SVr4, 4.4BSD
+.RB ( bind ()
+first appeared in 4.2BSD).
+.\" SVr4 documents an additional
+.\" .B ENOSR
+.\" general error condition, and
+.\" additional
+.\" .B EIO
+.\" and
+.\" .B EISDIR
+.\" UNIX-domain error conditions.
+.SH BUGS
+The transparent proxy options are not described.
+.\" FIXME Document transparent proxy options
+.SH EXAMPLES
+An example of the use of
+.BR bind ()
+with Internet domain sockets can be found in
+.BR getaddrinfo (3).
+.P
+The following example shows how to bind a stream socket in the UNIX
+.RB ( AF_UNIX )
+domain, and accept connections:
+.\" listen.7 refers to this example.
+.\" accept.7 refers to this example.
+.\" unix.7 refers to this example.
