NAME

       socket_accept6 - accept an IPv6 TCP connection on a socket

SYNTAX

       #include <socket.h>

       int socket_accept6(int s,char ip[16],uint16 *port,uint32 *scope_id);

DESCRIPTION

       When a TCP connection arrives on a listening TCP socket s, the socket becomes readable.

       socket_accept6  accepts  the connection.  It sets ip and port to the client IP address and
       client TCP port and scope_id to the IPv6 scope ID.   It  creates  a  new  socket  for  the
       connection, and returns a file descriptor pointing to the new socket; you can use the read
       and write system calls to transmit data through that file descriptor.

       If scope_id is the null pointer, socket_accept6 will discard the scope ID.

       If something goes wrong, socket_accept6 returns -1, setting errno  appropriately,  without
       creating a new socket.

EXAMPLE

         #include <socket.h>

         int s;
         char ip[16];
         uint16 port;
         uint32 scope_id;

         s = socket_tcp6();
         socket_bind6(s,ip,port,scope_id);
         socket_listen(s,16);
         socket_accept6(s,ip,&port,&scope_id);
