Arguments: &optional port-or-server verify verbose
This function reports on the state of one or more rpc ports and/or
servers. The verbose argument causes output to be
printed to the console. The verify argument, when
non-nil, causes a connection to be verified
with a round-trip message. When the first argument is nil, this function reports on the state of the
default port. The return value depends on argument values.
When the first argument is a datagram port instance, this method will
normally return :idle.
When the first argument is an rpc-port instance, this function returns
two values:
:closed or some other keywords denoting short-lived
connect and disconnect states. If the connection was verified, this
value is :verified.
When the first argument is a server instance, the value is a list of
the form (server-home-name :listening local-port p1 p2
... ) where p1... are lists describing any ports derived
from this server.
When the first argument is :all, the value is a
list of the form (s1 s2 ... [clients]) where
s1... are reports for all known server instances. The client's entry
is there if there are any client ports present. It is a list of the
form (:client-ports nil p1 p2 ... ).
When the first argument is a string or symbol, the value returned is
the rpc-port-server
instance, or the rpc-port instance with that home name.
All port instances are identified by their unique local home name.
