One render function converts a getaddrbyname request structure \(em \fBlwres_gabnrequest_t\fR \(em to the lighweight resolver's canonical format. It is complemented by a parse function that converts a packet in this canonical format to a getaddrbyname request structure. Another render function converts the getaddrbyname response structure \(em \fBlwres_gabnresponse_t\fR \(em to the canonical format. This is complemented by a parse function which converts a packet in canonical format to a getaddrbyname response structure. .PP These structures are defined in \fI\fR. They are shown below. .PP .nf #define LWRES_OPCODE_GETADDRSBYNAME 0x00010001U .fi .sp .PP .nf typedef struct lwres_addr lwres_addr_t; typedef LWRES_LIST(lwres_addr_t) lwres_addrlist_t; .fi .sp .PP .nf typedef struct { lwres_uint32_t flags; lwres_uint32_t addrtypes; lwres_uint16_t namelen; char *name; } lwres_gabnrequest_t; .fi .sp .PP .nf typedef struct { lwres_uint32_t flags; lwres_uint16_t naliases; lwres_uint16_t naddrs; char *realname; char **aliases; lwres_uint16_t realnamelen; lwres_uint16_t *aliaslen; lwres_addrlist_t addrs; void *base; size_t baselen; } lwres_gabnresponse_t; .fi .sp .PP \fBlwres_gabnrequest_render()\fR uses resolver context \fIctx\fR to convert getaddrbyname request structure \fIreq\fR to canonical format. The packet header structure \fIpkt\fR is initialised and transferred to buffer \fIb\fR. The contents of \fI*req\fR are then appended to the buffer in canonical format. \fBlwres_gabnresponse_render()\fR performs the same task, except it converts a getaddrbyname response structure \fBlwres_gabnresponse_t\fR to the lightweight resolver's canonical format. .PP \fBlwres_gabnrequest_parse()\fR uses context \fIctx\fR to convert the contents of packet \fIpkt\fR to a \fBlwres_gabnrequest_t\fR structure. Buffer \fIb\fR provides space to be used for storing this structure. When the function succeeds, the resulting \fBlwres_gabnrequest_t\fR is made available through \fI*structp\fR. \fBlwres_gabnresponse_parse()\fR offers the same semantics as \fBlwres_gabnrequest_parse()\fR except it yields a \fBlwres_gabnresponse_t\fR structure. .PP \fBlwres_gabnresponse_free()\fR and \fBlwres_gabnrequest_free()\fR release the memory in resolver context \fIctx\fR that was allocated to the \fBlwres_gabnresponse_t\fR or \fBlwres_gabnrequest_t\fR structures referenced via \fIstructp\fR. Any memory associated with ancillary buffers and strings for those structures is also discarded. .SH "RETURN VALUES" .PP The getaddrbyname opcode functions \fBlwres_gabnrequest_render()\fR, \fBlwres_gabnresponse_render()\fR\fBlwres_gabnrequest_parse()\fR and \fBlwres_gabnresponse_parse()\fR all return \fBLWRES_R_SUCCESS\fR on success. They return \fBLWRES_R_NOMEMORY\fR if memory allocation fails. \fBLWRES_R_UNEXPECTEDEND\fR is returned if the available space in the buffer \fIb\fR is too small to accommodate the packet header or the \fBlwres_gabnrequest_t\fR and \fBlwres_gabnresponse_t\fR structures. \fBlwres_gabnrequest_parse()\fR and \fBlwres_gabnresponse_parse()\fR will return \fBLWRES_R_UNEXPECTEDEND\fR if the buffer is not empty after decoding the received packet. These functions will return \fBLWRES_R_FAILURE\fR if pktflags in the packet header structure \fBlwres_lwpacket_t\fR indicate that the packet is not a response to an earlier query. .SH "SEE ALSO" .PP \fBlwres_packet\fR(3)
