Is there a timeout on recv

[ezmora]

I received code which uses sockets to communicate with a remote
server. (#include <sys/socket.h>)

I saw cases where if the server does not respond within ~5 seconds,
the code timeouts, so that recv() returns 0 and errno is 0.
Is there a timeout on recv? If so, how can I modify it?

Thanks,

google setsockopt

Thanks.

Is there a default value in case setsockopt is not used?
