+.SH "SYNOPSIS"
+.sp
+\fBint zmq_setsockopt (void \fR\fB\fI*socket\fR\fR\fB, int \fR\fB\fIoption_name\fR\fR\fB, const void \fR\fB\fI*option_value\fR\fR\fB, size_t \fR\fB\fIoption_len\fR\fR\fB);\fR
+.sp
+Caution: All options, with the exception of ZMQ_SUBSCRIBE, ZMQ_UNSUBSCRIBE, ZMQ_LINGER, ZMQ_ROUTER_MANDATORY, ZMQ_PROBE_ROUTER, ZMQ_XPUB_VERBOSE, ZMQ_REQ_CORRELATE, and ZMQ_REQ_RELAXED, only take effect for subsequent socket bind/connects\&.
+.sp
+Specifically, security options take effect for subsequent bind/connect calls, and can be changed at any time to affect subsequent binds and/or connects\&.
+.SH "DESCRIPTION"
+.sp
+The \fIzmq_setsockopt()\fR function shall set the option specified by the \fIoption_name\fR argument to the value pointed to by the \fIoption_value\fR argument for the 0MQ socket pointed to by the \fIsocket\fR argument\&. The \fIoption_len\fR argument is the size of the option value in bytes\&.
+.sp
+The following socket options can be set with the \fIzmq_setsockopt()\fR function:
+.SS "ZMQ_SNDHWM: Set high water mark for outbound messages"
+.sp
+The \fIZMQ_SNDHWM\fR option shall set the high water mark for outbound messages on the specified \fIsocket\fR\&. The high water mark is a hard limit on the maximum number of outstanding messages 0MQ shall queue in memory for any single peer that the specified \fIsocket\fR is communicating with\&. A value of zero means no limit\&.
+.sp
+If this limit has been reached the socket shall enter an exceptional state and depending on the socket type, 0MQ shall take appropriate action such as blocking or dropping sent messages\&. Refer to the individual socket descriptions in \fBzmq_socket\fR(3) for details on the exact action taken for each socket type\&.

+\fBNote\fR

+.br
+.sp
+0MQ does not guarantee that the socket will accept as many as ZMQ_SNDHWM messages, and the actual limit may be as much as 60\-70% lower depending on the flow of messages on the socket\&.

+.sp
+The \fIZMQ_AFFINITY\fR option shall set the I/O thread affinity for newly created connections on the specified \fIsocket\fR\&.
+.sp
+Affinity determines which threads from the 0MQ I/O thread pool associated with the socket\(cqs \fIcontext\fR shall handle newly created connections\&. A value of zero specifies no affinity, meaning that work shall be distributed fairly among all 0MQ I/O threads in the thread pool\&. For non\-zero values, the lowest bit corresponds to thread 1, second lowest bit to thread 2 and so on\&. For example, a value of 3 specifies that subsequent connections on \fIsocket\fR shall be handled exclusively by I/O threads 1 and 2\&.
+.sp
+See also \fBzmq_init\fR(3) for details on allocating the number of I/O threads for a specific \fIcontext\fR\&.

+.sp
+An empty \fIoption_value\fR of length zero shall subscribe to all incoming messages\&. A non\-empty \fIoption_value\fR shall subscribe to all messages beginning with the specified prefix\&.
