NAME
icmp, ICMP - Internet Control Message Protocol
SYNOPSIS
#include <sys/socket.h>
#include <netinet/in.h>
#include <netinet/ip_icmp.h>
s = socket(AF_INET, SOCK_RAW, proto);
t = t_open("/dev/icmp", O_RDWR);
DESCRIPTION
ICMP is the error and control message protocol used by the Internet
protocol family. It is used by the kernel to handle and report errors
in protocol processing. It may also be accessed by programs using the
socket interface or the Transport Level Interface (TLI) for network
monitoring and diagnostic functions. When used with the socket inter‐
face, a "raw socket" type is used. The protocol number for ICMP, used
in the proto parameter to the socket call, can be obtained from getpro‐
tobyname(3C). ICMP file descriptors and sockets are connectionless, and
are normally used with the t_sndudata / t_rcvudata and the sendto() /
recvfrom() calls.
Outgoing packets automatically have an Internet Protocol (IP) header
prepended to them. Incoming packets are provided to the user with the
IP header and options intact.
ICMP is an datagram protocol layered above IP. It is used internally by
the protocol code for various purposes including routing, fault isola‐
tion, and congestion control. Receipt of an ICMP "redirect" message
will add a new entry in the routing table, or modify an existing one.
ICMP messages are routinely sent by the protocol code. Received ICMP
messages may be reflected back to users of higher-level protocols such
as TCP or UDP as error returns from system calls. A copy of all ICMP
message received by the system is provided to every holder of an open
ICMP socket or TLI descriptor.

DIAGNOSTICS
A socket operation may fail with one of the following errors returned:
EISCONN An attempt was made to establish a connection on a
socket which already has one, or when trying to send a
datagram with the destination address specified and
the socket is already connected.
ENOTCONN An attempt was made to send a datagram, but no desti‐
nation address is specified, and the socket has not
been connected.
ENOBUFS The system ran out of memory for an internal data
structure.
EADDRNOTAVAIL An attempt was made to create a socket with a network
address for which no network interface exists.
NOTES
Replies to ICMP "echo" messages which are source routed are not sent
back using inverted source routes, but rather go back through the nor‐
mal routing mechanisms.
