neat_change_timeout¶

Change the timeout of the flow. Data that is sent may remain un-acked for up to a given number of seconds before the connection is terminated and a timeout is reported to the application.

Syntax¶

neat_error_code
neat_change_timeout(struct neat_ctx *ctx, struct neat_flow *flow,
                    unsigned int seconds);

Parameters¶

ctx: Pointer to a NEAT context.
flow: Pointer to a NEAT flow.
seconds: The number of seconds after which un-acked data will cause a timeout to be reported.

Return values¶

Returns NEAT_OK if the timeout was successfully changed.
Returns NEAT_ERROR_UNABLE if attempting to use this function on a system other than Linux, or on flow that is not using TCP.
Returns NEAT_ERROR_BAD_ARGUMENT if the timeout value is too large or if the specified flow is not opened.
Returns NEAT_ERROR_IO if NEAT was unable to set the timeout.
