TIPC-SOCKET(8) 💅

okay bestie, welcome to the tipc-socket page from the Linux manual, section 8 (that's the admin-and-friends section, iykyk) 👑

✨ NAME ✨

tipc-socket — show TIPC socket (port) information 🦋

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

tipc socket list

that's it. that's the whole vibe. one command, zero drama 💖

🎀 OPTIONS 🎀

so these are the options (flags, bestie) that you can pass anywhere in the command chain. like, anywhere. the command does not care. it's very chill about it. 🫶

  • -h, --help — shows help about the last valid command. for example tipc socket --help will show you the socket help, and tipc --help will show you the general help. the position of the option in the string is irrelevant — put it wherever, it slays either way ✨

💜 DESCRIPTION 💜

so a TIPC socket is represented by an unsigned integer. that's the whole representation. iconic, minimal, no notes 💅

🌈 Bound state 🌈

a bound socket has a logical TIPC port name associated with it. so like... it's got a name. it's known. it's got main character energy 👑

🦋 Connected state 🦋

a connected socket is directly connected to another socket, which creates a point to point connection between TIPC sockets. and here's the tea, bestie: if the connection to X was made using a logical port name Y, that name will show up as connected to X via Y. so you can literally trace the situationship 😭

⭐ EXIT STATUS ⭐

exit status is 0 if the command was successful, or a positive integer upon failure. no cap. 🍓

🔥 SEE ALSO 🔥

(the og page ends that list with a lil trailing comma and honestly? we respect it. periodt. 💀)

🙈 REPORTING BUGS 🙈

found a bug? do not suffer in silence. report any bugs to the Network Developers mailing list <netdev@vger.kernel.org>, where the development and maintenance is primarily done. and the best part: you do not have to be subscribed to the list to send a message there. go off, unsubscribed legend 💌
