inet_ntop, inet_pton - convert IPv4 and IPv6 addresses between binary and text
form
Návod, kniha: POSIX Programmer's Manual
#include <arpa/inet.h>
const char *inet_ntop(int
af, const void
*restrict src,
char *restrict
dst , socklen_t size);
int inet_pton(int
af, const char *restrict
src, void *restrict
dst);
The
inet_ntop() function shall convert a numeric address into a text
string suitable for presentation. The
af argument shall specify the
family of the address. This can be AF_INET or AF_INET6. The
src
argument points to a buffer holding an IPv4 address if the
af argument
is AF_INET, or an IPv6 address if the
af argument is AF_INET6;
the address must be in network byte order. The
dst argument points to a
buffer where the function stores the resulting text string; it shall not be
NULL. The
size argument specifies the size of this buffer, which shall
be large enough to hold the text string (INET_ADDRSTRLEN characters for IPv4,
INET6_ADDRSTRLEN characters for IPv6).
The
inet_pton() function shall convert an address in its standard text
presentation form into its numeric binary form. The
af argument shall
specify the family of the address. The AF_INET and AF_INET6 address
families shall be supported. The
src argument points to the string
being passed in. The
dst argument points to a buffer into which the
function stores the numeric address; this shall be large enough to hold the
numeric address (32 bits for AF_INET, 128 bits for AF_INET6).
If the
af argument of
inet_pton() is AF_INET, the
src
string shall be in the standard IPv4 dotted-decimal form:
where
"ddd" is a one to three digit decimal number between 0
and 255 (see
inet_addr() ). The
inet_pton() function does not
accept other formats (such as the octal numbers, hexadecimal numbers, and
fewer than four numbers that
inet_addr() accepts).
If the
af argument of
inet_pton() is AF_INET6, the
src
string shall be in one of the following standard IPv6 text forms:
- 1.
- The preferred form is "x:x:x:x:x:x:x:x" ,
where the 'x' s are the hexadecimal values of the eight 16-bit
pieces of the address. Leading zeros in individual fields can be omitted,
but there shall be at least one numeral in every field.
- 2.
- A string of contiguous zero fields in the preferred form
can be shown as "::" . The "::" can only
appear once in an address. Unspecified addresses (
"0:0:0:0:0:0:0:0" ) may be represented simply as
"::" .
- 3.
- A third form that is sometimes more convenient when dealing
with a mixed environment of IPv4 and IPv6 nodes is
"x:x:x:x:x:x:d.d.d.d" , where the 'x' s are the
hexadecimal values of the six high-order 16-bit pieces of the address, and
the 'd' s are the decimal values of the four low-order 8-bit pieces
of the address (standard IPv4 representation).
- Note:
- A more extensive description of the standard
representations of IPv6 addresses can be found in RFC 2373.
The
inet_ntop() function shall return a pointer to the buffer containing
the text string if the conversion succeeds, and NULL otherwise, and set
errno to indicate the error.
The
inet_pton() function shall return 1 if the conversion succeeds, with
the address pointed to by
dst in network byte order. It shall return 0
if the input is not a valid IPv4 dotted-decimal string or a valid IPv6
address string, or -1 with
errno set to [EAFNOSUPPORT] if the
af
argument is unknown.
The
inet_ntop() and
inet_pton() functions shall fail if:
- EAFNOSUPPORT
-
The af argument is invalid.
- ENOSPC
- The size of the inet_ntop() result buffer is
inadequate.
