\fIDraft Version 0.6\fR

NOTE: This documentation does not completely match the implementation in R6
(as a result of some late changes made in the code). Specifically, support
was added for font server cloning, and conditional compliation was introduced
for client vs. server code.
.bp
.H 1 "Purposes and Goals"
.P
The X Transport Interface is intended to combine all system and transport
specific code into a single place in the source tree. This API should be used
by all libraries, clients and servers of the X Window System. Use of this API
should allow the addition of new types of transports and support for new
platforms without making any changes to the source except in the X Transport
Interface code.
.P
This interface should solve the problem of multiple #ifdef TRANSPORT and
#ifdef PLATFORM statements scattered throughout the source tree.
.P
This interface should provide enough functionality to support all types of
protocols, including connection oriented protocols such as X11 and FS, and
connection-less oriented protocols such as XDMCP.
.H 1 "Overview of the interface"
.P
The interface provides an API for use by applications. The functions in this
API perform work that is common to all transports and systems, such as
parsing an address into a host and port number. The functions in this API
call transport specific functions that are contained in a table whose
contents are defined at compile time. This table contains an entry for each
type of transport. Each entry is a record containing mostly pointers to
function that implements the interface for the given transport.
.P
This API does not provide an abstraction for select() or poll().
These function are themselves transport independent, so an additional interface
is not needed for these functions. It is also unclear how such an interface
would affect performance.
.H 1 "Definition of Address Specification Format"
.P
Addresses are specified in the following syntax,
.sp
\fIprotocol/host:port\fR
.sp
where \fIprotocol\fR specifies a protocol family or an alias for a protocol
family. A definition of common protocol families is given in a later section.
.P
The \fIhost\fR part specifies the name of a host or other transport dependent
entity that could be interpreted as a Network Service Access Point (NSAP).
.P
The \fIport\fR part specifies the name of a Transport Service Access Point
(TSAP). The format of the TSAP is defined by the underlying transport
implementation, but it is represented using a string format when it is part
of an address.
.H 1 "Internal Data Structures"
.P
There are two major data structures associated with the transport independent
portion of this interface. Additional data structures may be used internally
by each transport.
.H 2 "Xtransport"
.P
Each transport supported has an entry in the transport table.
The transport table is an array of \fIXtransport\fR records. Each record
contains all the entry points for a single transport. This record is defined as:
.DS
.nf
typedef struct _Xtransport {
char *TransName;
int flags;
XtransConnInfo (*OpenCOTSClient)(
struct _Xtransport *, /* transport */
char *, /* protocol */
char *, /* host */
char * /* port */
);
XtransConnInfo (*OpenCOTSServer)(
struct _Xtransport *, /* transport */
char *, /* protocol */
char *, /* host */
char * /* port */
);
XtransConnInfo (*OpenCLTSClient)(
struct _Xtransport *, /* transport */
char *, /* protocol */
char *, /* host */
char * /* port */
);
XtransConnInfo (*OpenCLTSServer)(
struct _Xtransport *, /* transport */
char *, /* protocol */
char *, /* host */
char * /* port */
);
int (*SetOption)(
XtransConnInfo, /* connection */
int, /* option */
int /* arg */
);
int (*CreateListener)(
XtransConnInfo, /* connection */
char * /* port */
);
int (*ResetListener)(
XtransConnInfo /* connection */
);
XtransConnInfo (*Accept)(
XtransConnInfo /* connection */
);
int (*Connect)(
XtransConnInfo, /* connection */
char *, /* host */
char * /* port */
);
int (*BytesReadable)(
XtransConnInfo, /* connection */
BytesReadable_t * /* pend */
);
int (*Read)(
XtransConnInfo, /* connection */
char *, /* buf */
int /* size */
);
int (*Write)(
XtransConnInfo, /* connection */
char *, /* buf */
int /* size */
);
int (*Readv)(
XtransConnInfo, /* connection */
struct iovec *, /* buf */
int /* size */
);
int (*Writev)(
XtransConnInfo, /* connection */
struct iovec *, /* buf */
int /* size */
);
int (*Disconnect)(
XtransConnInfo /* connection */
);
int (*Close)(
XtransConnInfo /* connection */
);
} Xtransport;
.fi
.DE
.P
The \fIflags\fR field can contain an OR of the following masks:
.sp
\fITRANS_ALIAS\fR: indicates that this record is providing an alias,
and should not be used to create a listner.
.sp
\fITRANS_LOCAL\fR: indicates that this is a LOCALCONN transport.
.H 2 "XtransConnInfo"
.P
Each connection will have an opaque \fIXtransConnInfo\fR transport connection
object allocated for it. This record contains information specific to the
connection. The record is defined
as:
.DS
.nf
typedef struct _XtransConnInfo *XtransConnInfo;
struct _XtransConnInfo {
struct _Xtransport *transptr;
char *priv;
int flags;
int fd;
int family;
char *addr;
int addrlen;
char *peeraddr;
int peeraddrlen;
};
.fi
.DE
.H 1 "Exposed Transport Independent API"
.P
This API is included in each library and server that uses it. The API
may be used by the library, but it is not added to the public API for that
library. This interface is simply an implementation
facilitator. This API contains a low level set of core primitives, and a few
utility functions that are built on top of the primitives. The utility
functions exist to provide a more familiar interface that can be used to
port existing code.
.P
A macro is defined in Xtrans.h for TRANS(func) that creates a unique function
name depending on where the code is compiled. For example, when built for Xlib,
TRANS(OpenCOTSClient) becomes _X11TransOpenCOTSClient.
.P
All failures are considered fatal, and the connection should be closed and
re-established if desired. In most cases, however, the value of errno will
be available for debugging purposes.

.P
This function converts a sockaddr based address to an
X authorization based address (ie AF_INET, AF_UNIX to the
X protocol definition (ie FamilyInternet, FamilyLocal)).
.LE
.H 1 "Transport Option Definition"
.P
The following options are defined for the TRANS(SetOption)() function. If an
OS or transport does not support any of these options, then it will silently
ignore the option.
.BL
.LI
TRANS_NONBLOCKING
.P
This option controls the blocking mode of the connection. If the argument
is set to 1, then the connection will be set to blocking. If the argument
is set to 0, then the connection will be set to non-blocking.
.LI
TRANS_CLOSEONEXEC
.P
This option determines what will happen to the connection when an exec
is encountered. If the argument is set to 1, then the connection will be
closed when an exec occurs. If the argument is set to 0, then the connection
will not be closed when an exec occurs.
.LE
.H 1 "Hidden Transport Dependent API"
.P
The hidden transport dependent functions are placed in the Xtransport record.
These function are similar to the Exposed Transport Independent API, but some
of the parameters and return values are slightly different.
Stuff like the #ifdef SUNSYSV should be handled inside these functions.
.BL

structure that is returned by this function. This function will open the
transport.
.LI
int SetOption (struct _Xtransport *thistrans, int option, int arg)
.P
This function provides a transport dependent way of implementing the options
defined by the X Transport Interface. In the current prototype, this function
is not being used, because all of the option defined so far, are transport
independent. This function will have to be used if a radically different
transport type is added, or a transport dependent option is defined.
.LI
int CreateListener (struct _Xtransport *thistrans, char *port )
.P
This function takes a transport endpoint opened for a server, and sets it
up to listen for incoming connection requests. The parameter \fIport\fR
should contain the port portion of the address that was passed to the Open
function.
.P
This function will bind the transport into the transport name space if
applicable, and fill in the local address portion of the XtransConnInfo
structure. The transport endpoint will then be set to listen for
incoming connection requests.
.LI
int ResetListener (struct _Xtransport *thistrans)
.P
This function resets the transport for listening.
.LI
XtransConnInfo Accept(struct _Xtransport *thistrans)

.H 1 "Implementation Notes"
.P
This section refers to the prototype implementation that is being developed
concurrently with this document. This prototype has been able to flush out
many details and problems as the specification was being developed.
.P
All of the source code for this interface is located in xc/lib/xtrans.
.P
All functions names in the source are of the format TRANS(func)(). The TRANS()
macro is defined as
.DS
.sp
#if (__STDC__ && !defined(UNIXCPP)) || defined(ANSICPP)
#define TRANS(func) _PROTOCOLTrans##func
#else
#define TRANS(func) _PROTOCOLTrans/**/func
#endif
.sp
.DE
PROTOCOL will be uniquely defined in each directory where this code
is compiled. PROTOCOL will be defined to be the name of the protocol that is
implemented by the library or server, such as X11, FS, and ICE.
.P
All libraries and servers that use the X Transport Interface should have a new
file called transport.c. This file will include the transports based
on the configuration flags \fIConnectionFlags\fR. Below is an example
transport.c.

previously in Xlibint.h and Xlibnet.h. This will make the definitions
available for all transport users. This should also obsolete the equivilent
code in other libraries.
