Algorithm of creating a server socket of type @c SOCK_STREAM
============================================================

#. Call **socket()** on ``srvr`` PCO with the following parameters: ``domain``, ``SOCK_STREAM``, ``proto``. Created socket is referred as ``srvr_s`` below;

#. If ``srvr_wild`` is true, fill in network address part of ``srvr_bind_addr`` with wildcard network address;

#. Copy port part of ``srvr_addr`` to port part of ``srvr_bind_addr`` address;

#. Bind ``srvr_s`` socket to ``srvr_bind_addr`` address.

#. If port part of ``srvr_addr`` is zero (not specified), then call **getsockname()** on ``srvr_s`` socket to obtain the assigned port and set it to the port part of ``srvr_addr``.

#. Call **listen()** for ``srvr_s`` socket with default *backlog*.
