sockaddr_to_str(9)

🌸 NAME 🌸

okay so bestie, this is sockaddr_to_str(9) — yes, from the Kernel API Manual — and it's literally here to convert sockaddr to a string ✨ that's the whole assignment, no cap.

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

int sockaddr_to_str (const struct sockaddr *addr , char *buf , size_t
       len );

💖 ARGUMENTS 💖

• addr — the sockadddr structure to be converted. (yes, sockadddr, we're keeping it exactly as written 💅)
• buf — string containing socket addr.
• len — string length.

🌈 DESCRIPTION 🌈

okay so the return value is the number of characters written into buf not including the trailing ' ' 👀. If len is == 0 the function returns 0.. — yep, two dots and all, bestie 😭.
