>Description:
The sctp_send(3) manual page contains an embedded link to sctp_recvmsg(2). It should link to sctp_recvmsg(3).

"It will be avail-
     able on reception of a message (see sctp_recvmsg(2))."

sctp_sendmsg(3) links to sctp_sendmsg(2) instead of sctp_sendmsg(3).

"No indication of failure to deliver is implicit in a sctp_sendmsg(2)
     call."

"If no space is available at the socket to hold the message to be trans-
     mitted, then sctp_sendmsg(2) normally blocks"

There is also a wrong link to sctp_recvmsg(2): it should be sctp_recvmsg(3):

"It will be available on recep-
     tion of a message (see sctp_recvmsg(2))"
>How-To-Repeat:
