netinet/in.h - Internet address family
Návod, kniha: POSIX Programmer's Manual
#include <netinet/in.h>
The
<netinet/in.h> header shall define the following types:
- in_port_t
- Equivalent to the type uint16_t as defined in
<inttypes.h> .
- in_addr_t
- Equivalent to the type uint32_t as defined in
<inttypes.h> .
The
sa_family_t type shall be defined as described in
<sys/socket.h> .
The
uint8_t and
uint32_t type shall be defined as described in
<inttypes.h>. Inclusion of the
<netinet/in.h> header
may also make visible all symbols from
<inttypes.h> and
<sys/socket.h>.
The
<netinet/in.h> header shall define the
in_addr structure
that includes at least the following member:
The
<netinet/in.h> header shall define the
sockaddr_in
structure that includes at least the following members (all in network byte
order):
sa_family_t sin_family AF_INET.
in_port_t sin_port Port number.
struct in_addr sin_addr IP address.
The
sockaddr_in structure is used to store addresses for the Internet
address family. Values of this type shall be cast by applications to
struct
sockaddr for use with socket functions.
The
<netinet/in.h> header shall define the
in6_addr
structure that contains at least the following member:
This array is used to contain a 128-bit IPv6 address, stored in network byte
order.
The
<netinet/in.h> header shall define the
sockaddr_in6
structure that includes at least the following members (all in network byte
order):
sa_family_t sin6_family AF_INET6.
in_port_t sin6_port Port number.
uint32_t sin6_flowinfo IPv6 traffic class and flow information.
struct in6_addr sin6_addr IPv6 address.
uint32_t sin6_scope_id Set of interfaces for a scope.
The
sockaddr_in6 structure shall be set to zero by an application prior
to using it, since implementations are free to have additional,
implementation-defined fields in
sockaddr_in6.
The
sin6_scope_id field is a 32-bit integer that identifies a set of
interfaces as appropriate for the scope of the address carried in the
sin6_addr field. For a link scope
sin6_addr, the application
shall ensure that
sin6_scope_id is a link index. For a site scope
sin6_addr, the application shall ensure that
sin6_scope_id is a
site index. The mapping of
sin6_scope_id to an interface or set of
interfaces is implementation-defined.
The
<netinet/in.h> header shall declare the following external
variable:
const struct in6_addr in6addr_any
This variable is initialized by the system to contain the wildcard IPv6 address.
The
<netinet/in.h> header also defines the IN6ADDR_ANY_INIT
macro. This macro must be constant at compile time and can be used to
initialize a variable of type
struct in6_addr to the IPv6 wildcard
address.
The
<netinet/in.h> header shall declare the following external
variable:
const struct in6_addr in6addr_loopback
This variable is initialized by the system to contain the loopback IPv6 address.
The
<netinet/in.h> header also defines the IN6ADDR_LOOPBACK_INIT
macro. This macro must be constant at compile time and can be used to
initialize a variable of type
struct in6_addr to the IPv6 loopback
address.
The
<netinet/in.h> header shall define the
ipv6_mreq
structure that includes at least the following members:
struct in6_addr ipv6mr_multiaddr IPv6 multicast address.
unsigned ipv6mr_interface Interface index.
The
<netinet/in.h> header shall define the following macros for use
as values of the
level argument of
getsockopt() and
setsockopt():
- IPPROTO_IP
- Internet protocol.
- IPPROTO_IPV6
- Internet Protocol Version 6.
- IPPROTO_ICMP
- Control message protocol.
- IPPROTO_RAW
- Raw IP Packets Protocol.
- IPPROTO_TCP
- Transmission control protocol.
- IPPROTO_UDP
- User datagram protocol.
The
<netinet/in.h> header shall define the following macros for use
as destination addresses for
connect(),
sendmsg(), and
sendto():
- INADDR_ANY
- IPv4 local host address.
- INADDR_BROADCAST
- IPv4 broadcast address.
The
<netinet/in.h> header shall define the following macro to help
applications declare buffers of the proper size to store IPv4 addresses in
string form:
- INET_ADDRSTRLEN
- 16. Length of the string form for IP.
The
htonl(),
htons(),
ntohl(), and
ntohs() functions
shall be available as defined in
<arpa/inet.h> . Inclusion of the
<netinet/in.h> header may also make visible all symbols from
<arpa/inet.h> .
The
<netinet/in.h> header shall define the following macro to help
applications declare buffers of the proper size to store IPv6 addresses in
string form:
- INET6_ADDRSTRLEN
- 46. Length of the string form for IPv6.
The
<netinet/in.h> header shall define the following macros, with
distinct integer values, for use in the
option_name argument in the
getsockopt() or
setsockopt() functions at protocol level
IPPROTO_IPV6:
- IPV6_JOIN_GROUP
- Join a multicast group.
- IPV6_LEAVE_GROUP
- Quit a multicast group.
- IPV6_MULTICAST_HOPS
-
Multicast hop limit.
- IPV6_MULTICAST_IF
- Interface to use for outgoing multicast packets.
- IPV6_MULTICAST_LOOP
-
Multicast packets are delivered back to the local application.
- IPV6_UNICAST_HOPS
- Unicast hop limit.
- IPV6_V6ONLY
- Restrict AF_INET6 socket to IPv6 communications only.
The
<netinet/in.h> header shall define the following macros that
test for special IPv6 addresses. Each macro is of type
int and takes a
single argument of type
const struct in6_addr *:
- IN6_IS_ADDR_UNSPECIFIED
-
Unspecified address.
- IN6_IS_ADDR_LOOPBACK
-
Loopback address.
- IN6_IS_ADDR_MULTICAST
-
Multicast address.
- IN6_IS_ADDR_LINKLOCAL
-
Unicast link-local address.
- IN6_IS_ADDR_SITELOCAL
-
Unicast site-local address.
- IN6_IS_ADDR_V4MAPPED
-
IPv4 mapped address.
- IN6_IS_ADDR_V4COMPAT
-
IPv4-compatible address.
- IN6_IS_ADDR_MC_NODELOCAL
-
Multicast node-local address.
- IN6_IS_ADDR_MC_LINKLOCAL
-
Multicast link-local address.
- IN6_IS_ADDR_MC_SITELOCAL
-
Multicast site-local address.
- IN6_IS_ADDR_MC_ORGLOCAL
-
Multicast organization-local address.
- IN6_IS_ADDR_MC_GLOBAL
-
Multicast global address.
