int getnameinfo(const struct sockaddr *restrict
sa,
socklen_t salen,
char *restrict
node , socklen_t nodelen,
char *restrict service,
socklen_t
servicelen , int flags);
The
getnameinfo() function shall translate a socket address to a node
name and service location, all of which are defined as in
getaddrinfo()
.
The
sa argument points to a socket address structure to be translated.
If the socket address structure contains an IPv4-mapped IPv6 address or an
IPv4-compatible IPv6 address, the implementation shall extract the embedded
IPv4 address and lookup the node name for that IPv4 address.
- Note:
- The IPv6 unspecified address ( "::" ) and
the IPv6 loopback address ( "::1" ) are not
IPv4-compatible addresses. If the address is the IPv6 unspecified address
( "::" ), a lookup is not performed, and the [EAI_NONAME]
error is returned.
If the
node argument is non-NULL and the
nodelen argument is
non-zero, then the
node argument points to a buffer able to contain up
to
nodelen characters that receives the node name as a null-terminated
string. If the
node argument is NULL or the
nodelen argument is
zero, the node name shall not be returned. If the node's name cannot be
located, the numeric form of the address contained in the socket address
structure pointed to by the
sa argument is returned instead of its
name.
If the
service argument is non-NULL and the
servicelen argument is
non-zero, then the
service argument points to a buffer able to contain
up to
servicelen bytes that receives the service name as a
null-terminated string. If the
service argument is NULL or the
servicelen argument is zero, the service name shall not be returned. If
the service's name cannot be located, the numeric form of the service address
(for example, its port number) shall be returned instead of its name.
The
flags argument is a flag that changes the default actions of the
function. By default the fully-qualified domain name (FQDN) for the host shall
be returned, but:
- *
- If the flag bit NI_NOFQDN is set, only the node name
portion of the FQDN shall be returned for local hosts.
- *
- If the flag bit NI_NUMERICHOST is set, the numeric form of
the address contained in the socket address structure pointed to by the
sa argument shall be returned instead of its name, under all
circumstances.
- *
- If the flag bit NI_NAMEREQD is set, an error shall be
returned if the host's name cannot be located.
- *
- If the flag bit NI_NUMERICSERV is set, the numeric form of
the service address shall be returned (for example, its port number)
instead of its name, under all circumstances.
- *
- If the flag bit NI_NUMERICSCOPE is set, the numeric form of
the scope identifier shall be returned (for example, interface index)
instead of its name. This flag shall be ignored if the sa argument
is not an IPv6 address.
- *
- If the flag bit NI_DGRAM is set, this indicates that the
service is a datagram service (SOCK_DGRAM). The default behavior shall
assume that the service is a stream service (SOCK_STREAM).
- Notes:
- 1.
- The two NI_NUMERICxxx flags are required to support the
-n flag that many commands provide.
- 2.
- The NI_DGRAM flag is required for the few AF_INET and
AF_INET6 port numbers (for example, [512,514]) that represent different
services for UDP and TCP.
The
getnameinfo() function shall be thread-safe.
A zero return value for
getnameinfo() indicates successful completion; a
non-zero return value indicates failure. The possible values for the failures
are listed in the ERRORS section.
Upon successful completion,
getnameinfo() shall return the
node
and
service names, if requested, in the buffers provided. The returned
names are always null-terminated strings.
The
getnameinfo() function shall fail and return the corresponding value
if:
- EAI_AGAIN
- The name could not be resolved at this time. Future
attempts may succeed.
- EAI_BADFLAGS
-
The flags had an invalid value.
- EAI_FAIL
- A non-recoverable error occurred.
- EAI_FAMILY
- The address family was not recognized or the address length
was invalid for the specified family.
- EAI_MEMORY
- There was a memory allocation failure.
- EAI_NONAME
- The name does not resolve for the supplied parameters.
NI_NAMEREQD is set and the host's name cannot be located, or both
nodename and
servname were null.
- EAI_OVERFLOW
-
An argument buffer overflowed. The buffer pointed to by the node
argument or the service argument was too small.
- EAI_SYSTEM
- A system error occurred. The error code can be found in
errno.
The following sections are informative.
None.
If the returned values are to be used as part of any further name resolution
(for example, passed to
getaddrinfo()), applications should provide
buffers large enough to store any result possible on the system.
Given the IPv4-mapped IPv6 address
"::ffff:1.2.3.4" , the
implementation performs a lookup as if the socket address structure contains
the IPv4 address
"1.2.3.4" .
None.
None.
