It isn't mentioned in the man page as a possibility. Thanks for the report. For upstream man-pages-3.26, I added the following --- a/man2/write.2 +++ b/man2/write.2 @@ -128,6 +128,11 @@ so a portable application should check for both possibilities. .I fd is not a valid file descriptor or is not open for writing. .TP +.B EDESTADDRREQ +.I fd +refers to a datagram socket for which a peer address has not been set using +.BR connect (2). +.TP .B EFAULT .I buf is outside your accessible address space.
