host_env: publish remaining Windows module constants

PlaySound and MessageBeep flags, and the Winsock names the socket module
still spelled locally, now come from host_env. Windows SOMAXCONN is the
winsock2.h value 0x7fffffff, and SOL_IP / the INADDR group constants use
the host values.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • New Features
    • Expanded Windows socket support with additional socket options, protocol values, and Bluetooth address constants.
    • Exposed sound playback flags and message-beep identifiers through the winsound module.
  • Bug Fixes
    • Corrected the Windows maximum connection backlog constant to match the Winsock 2 value.
    • Platform-specific socket constants now use Windows values where applicable.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The pull request updates Windows socket constants and Python socket attributes. It also makes winsound constants public in the host environment and re-exports them through the VM module.

Changes

Windows socket constants

Layer / File(s) Summary
Host socket constants
crates/host_env/src/socket.rs
The host module defines SOMAXCONN with the Winsock 2 value instead of re-exporting the Winsock 1.1 value.
Standard-library socket exports
crates/stdlib/src/socket.rs
Windows-specific values are used for selected constants. The Windows attribute exports include additional socket options and address constants.

Winsound constants

Layer / File(s) Summary
Host winsound constants
crates/host_env/src/winsound.rs
The host module publicly defines the PlaySoundW flags and MessageBeep sound identifiers.
VM winsound exports
crates/vm/src/stdlib/winsound.rs
The module re-exports the host constants as Python attributes. The sound functions are unchanged.

Some Windows socket constants no longer work with htonl, and two advertised options cannot provide their expected behavior. These bounded compatibility issues warrant fixes or explicit acceptance before merging.

Keep the Windows INADDR attributes unsigned.

The host constants INADDR_UNSPEC_GROUP, INADDR_ALLHOSTS_GROUP, and INADDR_MAX_LOCAL_GROUP are i32. Importing them as #[pyattr] changes the previous positive u32 values to negative Python integers. For example, socket.htonl(socket.INADDR_ALLHOSTS_GROUP) can no longer accept the exported value. Define Windows u32 attributes by casting the host values before export. (raw.githubusercontent.com)

When enabled on a datagram socket, all generated errors will be queued in a per-socket error queue. When the user receives an error from a socket operation, the errors can be received by calling recvmsg(2) with the MSG_ERRQUEUE flag set. The sock_extended_err structure describing the error will be passed in an ancillary message with the type IP_RECVERR and the level IPPROTO_IP. This is useful for reliable error handling on unconnected sockets. The received data portion of the error queue contains the error packet. The IP_RECVERR control message contains a sock_extended_err structure. .ee_errno contains the errno number of the queued error. .ee_origin is the origin code of where the error originated. The other fields are protocol-specific. The macro SO_EE_OFFENDER() returns a pointer to the address of the network object where the error originated from given a pointer to the ancillary message. If this address is not known, the .sa_family member of the sockaddr contains AF_UNSPEC and the other fields of the sockaddr are undefined. IP uses the sock_extended_err structure as follows: • .ee_origin is set to SO_EE_ORIGIN_ICMP for errors received as an ICMP packet, or SO_EE_ORIGIN_LOCAL for locally generated errors. Unknown values should be ignored. • .ee_type and .ee_code are set from the type and code fields of the ICMP header. • .ee_info contains the discovered MTU for EMSGSIZE errors. • The message also contains the sockaddr_in of the node caused that the error, which can be accessed with the SO_EE_OFFENDER() macro. The .sin_family field of the SO_EE_OFFENDER() address is AF_UNSPEC when the source was unknown. When the error originated from the network, all IP options (IP_OPTIONS(2const), IP_TTL(2const), etc.) enabled on the socket and contained in the error packet are passed as control messages. The payload of the packet causing the error is returned as normal payload. TCP has no error queue; MSG_ERRQUEUE is not permitted on SOCK_STREAM sockets. IP_RECVERR is valid for TCP, but all errors are returned by socket function return or SO_ERROR only. For raw sockets, IP_RECVERR enables passing of all received ICMP errors to the application, otherwise errors are reported only on connected sockets ``` ## ERRORS top ``` See IPPROTO_IP(2const).

Use the WSAIoctl or WSPIoctl function to issue a Winsock IOCTL to control the mode of a socket, the transport protocol, or the communications subsystem. Some Winsock IOCTLs require more explanation than this table can convey; such options contain links to additional topics. It is possible to adopt an encoding scheme that preserves the currently defined ioctlsocket opcodes while providing a convenient way to partition the opcode identifier space in as much as the dwIoControlCode parameter is now a 32-bit entity. The dwIoControlCode parameter is built to allow for protocol and vendor independence when adding new control codes while retaining backward compatibility with the Windows Sockets 1.1 and Unix control codes. The dwIoControlCode parameter has the following form. | I | O | V | T | Vendor/address family | Code | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | 3 | 3 | 2 | 2 2 | 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 1 1 1 1 | 1 1 1 1 1 1 | | 1 | 0 | 9 | 8 7 | 6 5 4 3 2 1 0 9 8 7 6 | 5 4 3 2 1 0 9 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 0 | Note The bits in dwIoControlCode parameter displayed in the table must be read vertically from top to bottom by column. So the left-most bit is bit 31, the next bit is bit 30, and the right-most bit is bit 0. I is set if the input buffer is valid for the code, as with IOC_IN. O is set if the output buffer is valid for the code, as with IOC_OUT. Control codes using both input and output buffers set both I and O. V is set if there are no parameters for the code, as with IOC_VOID. T is a 2-bit quantity that defines the type of the IOCTL. The following values are defined: 0 The IOCTL is a standard Unix IOCTL code, as with FIONREAD and FIONBIO. 1 The IOCTL is a generic Windows Sockets 2 IOCTL code. New IOCTL codes defined for Windows Sockets 2 will have T == 1. 2 The IOCTL applies only to a specific address family. 3 The IOCTL applies only to a specific vendor&`#39`;s provider, as with IOC_VENDOR. This type allows companies to be assigned a vendor number that appears in the Vendor/Address family parameter. Then, the vendor can define new IOCTLs specific to that vendor without having to register the IOCTL with a clearinghouse, thereby providing vendor flexibility and privacy. Vendor/Address family An 11-bit quantity that defines the vendor who owns the code (if T == 3) or that contains the address family to which the code applies (if T == 2). If this is a Unix IOCTL code (T == 0) then this parameter has the same value as the code on Unix. If this is a generic Windows Sockets 2 IOCTL (T == 1) then this parameter can be used as an extension of the code parameter to provide additional code values. Code The 16-bit quantity that contains the specific IOCTL code for the operation. ## Unix IOCTL codes The following Unix IOCTL codes (commands) are supported. ### FIONBIO Enable or disable non-blocking mode on socket s. The lpvInBuffer parameter points at an unsigned long (QoS), which is nonzero if non-blocking mode is to be enabled and zero if it is to be disabled. When a socket is created, it operates in blocking mode (that is, non-blocking mode is disabled). This is consistent with BSD sockets. The WSAAsyncSelect or WSAEventSelect routine automatically sets a socket to non-blocking mode. If WSAAsyncSelect or WSAEventSelect has been issued on a socket, then any attempt to use WSAIoctl to set the socket back to blocking mode will fail with WSAEINVAL. To set the socket back to blocking mode, an application must first disable WSAAsyncSelect by calling WSAAsyncSelect with the lEvent parameter equal to zero, or disable WSAEventSelect by calling WSAEventSelect with the lNetworkEvents parameter equal to zero. ### FIONREAD Determine the amount of data that can be read atomically from socket s. The lpvOutBuffer parameter points at an unsigned long in which WSAIoctl stores the resu…[truncated] <title>socket-options-and-ioctls-2</title> https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/win32/winsock/socket-options-and-ioctls-2 --- layout: Conceptual title: Socket Options and IOCTLs - Win32 apps | Microsoft Learn canonicalUrl: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/win32/winsock/socket-options-and-ioctls-2 breadcrumb_path: /windows/desktop/breadcrumb/toc.json uhfHeaderId: MSDocsHeader-WinDevCenter recommendations: true adobe-target: true ms.service: windows-api-desktop-tech ms.subservice: networking ms.author: jken author: GrantMeStrength feedback_system: Standard feedback_product_url: https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/windowsinsider/feedbackhub/fb feedback_help_link_url: https://learn.microsoft.com/answers/tags/224/windows-api-win32/ feedback_help_link_type: get-help-at-qna description: Some of the socket options for Windows Sockets 2 are summarized in the following table. ms.assetid: 6731d27c-fb7d-421a-badf-0cad6a4712ea ms.topic: reference ms.date: 2018-05-31T00:00:00.0000000Z locale: en-us document_id: efe1dd66-7853-c0f1-d3be-c0539c5b669e document_version_independent_id: 2884bf04-86c6-9dcf-6830-fafc301d5a9e updated_at: 2025-03-11T19:31:00.0000000Z original_content_git_url: https://github.com/MicrosoftDocs/win32-pr/blob/live/desktop-src/WinSock/socket-options-and-ioctls-2.md gitcommit: https://github.com/MicrosoftDocs/win32-pr/blob/289d68fcbf23cf2e2500241e0f6433bb2daa000f/desktop-src/WinSock/socket-options-and-ioctls-2.md git_commit_id: 289d68fcbf23cf2e2500241e0f6433bb2daa000f site_name: Docs depot_name: MSDN.win32 page_type: conceptual toc_rel: toc.json pdf_url_template: https://learn.microsoft.com/pdfstore/en-us/MSDN.win32/{branchName}{pdfName} word_count: 492 asset_id: winsock/socket-options-and-ioctls-2 moniker_range_name: monikers: [] item_type: Content source_path: desktop-src/WinSock/socket-options-and-ioctls-2.md cmProducts: - https://authoring-docs-microsoft.poolparty.biz/devrel/bcbcbad5-4208-4783-8035-8481272c98b8 - https://authoring-docs-microsoft.poolparty.biz/devrel/caec7b7f-4941-4578-b79f-c63b1c1f5af4 spProducts: - https://authoring-docs-microsoft.poolparty.biz/devrel/43b2e5aa-8a6d-4de2-a252-692232e5edc8 - https://authoring-docs-microsoft.poolparty.biz/devrel/754dea88-f800-4835-b6b5-280cb5d81e88 platformId: 5c31f011-8519-eff9-a9bb-897106030aac --- # Socket Options and IOCTLs - Win32 apps | Microsoft Learn Some of the socket options for Windows Sockets 2 are summarized in the following table. More detailed information is provided in section 4 under **WSPGetSockOpt** and/or **WSPSetSockOpt**. There are other new protocol-specific socket options which can be found in the Protocol-Specific Annex. A complete list of **Socket Options** for Windows Sockets are available in the Winsock reference. For a summary of some of the Winsock Ioctls, see Summary of Socket Ioctl Opcodes. A complete list of **Winsock IOCTLs** are available in the Winsock reference. ## Summary of Common Socket Options A Winsock service provider must recognize all of these options, and (for **WSPGetSockOpt**) return plausible values for each. The default value for each option is shown in the following table. Value Type Meaning Default Note SO\_ACCEPTCONN BOOL Socket is listening. FALSE unless a **WSPListen** has been performed. SO\_BROADCAST BOOL Socket is configured for the transmission and receipt of broadcast messages. FALSE SO\_DEBUG BOOL Debugging is enabled. FALSE (i) SO\_DONTLINGER BOOL If true, the SO\_LINGER option is disabled. TRUE SO\_DONTROUTE BOOL Routing is disabled. Succeeds but is ignored on AF\_INET sockets; fails on AF\_INET6 sockets with WSAENOPROTOOPT. Not supported on ATM sockets (results in an error). FALSE (i) SO\_ERROR int Retrieves error status and clear. 0 SO\_GROUP\_ID GROUP Reserved. NULL Get only SO\_GROUP\_PRIORITY int Reserved. 0 **SO\_KEEPALIVE** BOOL Keepalives are being sent. Not supported on ATM sockets (results in an error). FALSE (i) SO\_LINGER Structure linger Returns the current linger options. l\_onoff is 0 SO\_MAX\_MSG\_SIZE int Maximum outbound size of a message for message socket types. There is no provision to determine the m... <title>Protocol-Independent Out-of-Band Data - Win32 apps | Microsoft Learn</title> https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/win32/winsock/protocol-independent-out-of-band-data-2 The stream socket abstraction includes the notion of out of band (OOB) data. Many protocols allow portions of incoming data to be marked as special in some way, and these special data blocks can be delivered to the user out of the normal sequence. Examples include expedited data in X.25 and other OSI protocols, and urgent data in BSD UNIX&`#39`;s use of TCP. The following section describes OOB data handling in a protocol-independent manner. A discussion of OOB data implemented using TCP urgent data follows the protocol-independent explanation. In each discussion, the use of recv also implies recvfrom, WSARecv, and WSARecvFrom, and references to WSAAsyncSelect also apply to WSAEventSelect. ... For protocols where the concept of the position of the OOB data block within the normal data stream is meaningful, an application might process out-of-band data inline, as part of the normal data stream. This is achieved by setting the socket option SO_OOBINLINE with the setsockopt function. For other protocols where the OOB data blocks are truly independent of the normal data stream, attempting to set SO_OOBINLINE results in an error. An application can use the ioctlsocket or WSAIoctl function with the SIOCATMARK IOCTL to determine whether there is any unread OOB data preceding the mark. For example, it can use this information to resynchronize with its peer by ensuring that all data up to the mark in the data stream is discarded when appropriate. ... - Windows Sockets notifies an application of an FD_OOB event, if the application registered for notification with WSAAsyncSelect, in exactly the same way FD_READ is used to notify of the presence of normal data. That is, FD_OOB is posted when OOB data arrives with no OOB data previously queued. The FD_OOB is also posted when data is read using the MSG_OOB flag while some OOB data remains queued after the read operation has returned. FD_READ messages are not posted for OOB data. ... - The application can call recv with MSG_OOB to read the urgent data block at any time. The block of OOB data jumps the queue. ... - The application can call recv without MSG_OOB to read the normal data stream. The OOB data block does not appear in the data stream with normal data. If OOB data remains after any call to recv, Windows Sockets notifies the application with FD_OOB or with exceptfds when using select. ... - For protocols where the OOB data has a position within the normal data stream, a single recv operation does not span that position. One recv returns the normal data before the mark, and a second recv is required to begin reading data after the mark. ... With SO_OOBINLINE enabled: ... - FD_OOB messages are not posted for OOB data. OOB data is treated as normal for the purpose of the select and WSAAsyncSelect functions, and indicated by setting the socket in readfds or by sending an FD_READ message respectively. ... - The application cannot call recv with the MSG_OOB flag set to read the OOB data block. The error code WSAEINVAL is returned. ... - The application can call recv without the MSG_OOB flag set. Any OOB data is delivered in its correct order within the normal data stream. OOB data is never mixed with normal data. There must be three read requests to get past the OOB data. The first returns the normal data prior to the OOB data block, the second returns the OOB data, the third returns the normal data following the OOB data. In other words, the OOB data block boundaries are preserved. ... The arrival of a TCP segment with the URG (for urgent ... existence of a ... byte of OOB ... TCP data stream. ... If SO_OOBINLINE is disabled (the default) when the TCP segment containing the byte pointed to by the urgent pointer arrives, the OOB data block (one byte) is removed from the data stream and buffered. If a subsequent TCP segment arrives with the urgent flag set (and a new urgent pointer), the OOB byte currently queued can be lost as it is replaced by the new OOB data block (as occurs in…[truncated]

Remove unsupported Windows socket exports.

IP_RECVERR and IPV6_RECVERR are valid Winsock options and must remain exported. Windows has no recvmsg path in this module, and recv does not support MSG_ERRQUEUE. SO_ORIGINAL_DST is only a local numeric definition; Winsock does not define or document that option. Remove MSG_ERRQUEUE and SO_ORIGINAL_DST.
