PPRROOLLOOGG
       This manual page is part of the POSIX Programmer's Manual.  The OS
       implementation of this interface may differ (consult the corresponding
       OS manual page for details of OS behavior), or the interface may not be
       implemented on OS.

       shutdown -- shut down socket send and receive operations

SSYYNNOOPPSSIISS
       #include <sys/socket.h>

       int shutdown(int _s_o_c_k_e_t, int _h_o_w);

DDEESSCCRRIIPPTTIIOONN
       The _s_h_u_t_d_o_w_n() function shall cause all or part of a full-duplex
       connection on the socket associated with the file descriptor _s_o_c_k_e_t to
       be shut down.

       The _s_h_u_t_d_o_w_n() function takes the following arguments:

       _s_o_c_k_e_t      Specifies the file descriptor of the socket.

       _h_o_w         Specifies the type of shutdown. The values are as follows:

                   SHUT_RD     Disables further receive operations.

                   SHUT_WR     Disables further send operations.

                   SHUT_RDWR   Disables further send and receive operations.

       The _s_h_u_t_d_o_w_n() function disables subsequent send and/or receive
       operations on a socket, depending on the value of the _h_o_w argument.

RREETTUURRNN VVAALLUUEE
       Upon successful completion, _s_h_u_t_d_o_w_n() shall return 0; otherwise, -1
       shall be returned and _e_r_r_n_o set to indicate the error.

EERRRROORRSS
       The _s_h_u_t_d_o_w_n() function shall fail if:

       EEBBAADDFF  The _s_o_c_k_e_t argument is not a valid file descriptor.

       EEIINNVVAALL The _h_o_w argument is invalid.

       EENNOOTTCCOONNNN
              The socket is not connected.

       EENNOOTTSSOOCCKK
              The _s_o_c_k_e_t argument does not refer to a socket.

       The _s_h_u_t_d_o_w_n() function may fail if:

       EENNOOBBUUFFSS
              Insufficient resources were available in the system to perform
              the operation.
