+<h1> The <tt>s6-fdholder-setdumpc</tt> program </h1>
+
+<p>
+<tt>s6-fdholder-setdumpc</tt> talks to a
+<a href="s6-fdholderd.html">fd-holding daemon</a> on its open
+descriptors 6 and 7, and transmits it a set of file descriptors
+together with a list of identifiers and expiration dates found
+in its environment.
+</p>
+
+<h2> Interface </h2>
+
+<pre>
+ s6-fdholder-setdumpc [ -t <em>timeout</em> ]
+</pre>
+
+<ul>
+ <li> s6-fdholder-storec expects to talk to a listening
+<a href="s6-fdholderd.html">s6-fdholderd</a> program on its descriptors 6 and 7. </li>
+ <li> It attempts to pass a complete state - i.e. a set of file descriptors
+with identifiers and expiration dates - to s6-fdholderd. </li>
+ <li> It then exits 0, or 1 if the server returned an error. </li>
+</ul>
+
+<h2> Options </h2>
+
+<ul>
+<li> <tt>-t&nbsp;<em>timeout</em></tt>&nbsp;: if the operation cannot be
+processed in <em>timeout</em> milliseconds, then fail with an error message.
+Communications with the server should be near-instant, so this option is
+only here to protect users against programming errors. </li>
+</ul>
+
+<h2> Notes </h2>
+
+<ul>
+ <li> The error messages for the s6-fdholder suite are explained
+<a href="s6-fdholder-errorcodes.html">here</a>. </li>
+ <li> The format of the environment variables where s6-fdholder-setdumpc
+gets its information from is the same as the one set by
+<a href="s6-fdholder-getdumpc.html">s6-fdholder-getdumpc</a>. </li>
+</ul>
