libsendfile - sendfile library
#include <sys/sendfile.h>
Historically, this library provided routines that enabled files to be sent over sockets, buffers to be sent over sockets, files to be copied to files, and buffers to be copied to files. This functionality now resides in libc(3LIB).
This library is maintained to provide backward compatibility for both runtime and compilation environments. The shared object is implemented as a filter on libc.so.1. New application development need not specify –lsendfile.
The shared object libsendfile.so.1 provides the public interfaces defined below. See intro(3) for additional information on shared object interfaces.

The following interfaces are unique to the 32-bit version of this library:

32–bit shared object
64–bit shared object

This library was added to Oracle Solaris in the Solaris 8 7/01 (Update 5) release.
The historical contents of this library moved to the libc(3LIB) library in Solaris 11.4.
