  25   25  .LP
  26   26  The spray program sends packets to a given machine to test communications with
  27   27  that machine.

  30   30  The spray program is not a C function interface, per se, but it can be accessed
  31   31  using the generic remote procedure calling interface \fBclnt_call()\fR. See
  32   32  \fBrpc_clnt_calls\fR(3NSL). The program sends a packet to the called host. The
  33   33  host acknowledges receipt of the packet. The program counts the number of
  34   34  acknowledgments and can return that count.

 136  133  .LP
 137  134  This interface is unsafe in multithreaded applications.  Unsafe interfaces
 138  135  should be called only from the main thread.

 141  138  A spray program is not useful as a networking benchmark as it uses  unreliable
 142  139  connectionless transports, for example, udp. It can report a large number of
 143  140  packets dropped, when the drops were caused by the program sending packets
 144  141  faster than they can be buffered locally, that is, before the packets get to
 145  142  the network medium.
