DESCRIPTION
These routines are used for describing the RPC messages in XDR language.
They should normally be used by those who do not want to use the RPC
package directly. These routines return TRUE if they succeed, FALSE
otherwise.
Routines
See rpc(3) for the definition of the XDR data structure.
xdr_accepted_reply()
Used to translate between RPC reply messages and their external
representation. It includes the status of the RPC call in the XDR
language format. In the case of success, it also includes the
call results.
xdr_authsys_parms()
Used for describing UNIX operating system credentials. It
includes machine-name, uid, gid list, etc.
xdr_callhdr()
Used for describing RPC call header messages. It encodes the
static part of the call message header in the XDR language format.
It includes information such as transaction ID, RPC version
number, program and version number.
xdr_opaque_auth()
Used for describing RPC opaque authentication information
messages.
xdr_rejected_reply()
Used for describing RPC reply messages. It encodes the rejected
RPC message in the XDR language format. The message could be
rejected either because of version number mis-match or because of
authentication errors.
xdr_replymsg()
Used for describing RPC reply messages. It translates between the
RPC reply message and its external representation. This reply
could be either an acceptance, rejection or NULL.
