    DESCRIPTION

    Given node and service, which identify an Internet host and a service, getaddrinfo() returns one or more addrinfo structures, each of which contains an Internet address that can be specified in a call to bind(2) or connect(2). The getaddrinfo() function combines the functionality provided by the getservbyname(3) and getservbyport(3) functions into a single interface, but unlike the latter functions, getaddrinfo() is reentrant and allows programs to eliminate IPv4-versus-IPv6 dependencies.

    The addrinfo structure used by getaddrinfo() contains the following fields:

    struct addrinfo {
        int              ai_flags;
        int              ai_family;
        int              ai_socktype;
        int              ai_protocol;
        size_t           ai_addrlen;
        struct sockaddr *ai_addr;
        char            *ai_canonname;
        struct addrinfo *ai_next;
    };
    

    The hints argument points to an addrinfo structure that specifies criteria for selecting the socket address structures returned in the list pointed to by res. If hints is not NULL it points to an addrinfo structure whose ai_family, ai_socktype, and ai_protocol specify criteria that limit the set of socket addresses returned by getaddrinfo(), as follows:

    ai_family
    This field specifies the desired address family for the returned addresses. Valid values for this field include AF_INET and AF_INET6. The value AF_UNSPEC indicates that getaddrinfo() should return socket addresses for any address family (either IPv4 or IPv6, for example) that can be used with node and service.
    ai_socktype
    This field specifies the preferred socket type, for example SOCK_STREAM or SOCK_DGRAM. Specifying 0 in this field indicates that socket addresses of any type can be returned by getaddrinfo().
    ai_protocol
    This field specifies the protocol for the returned socket addresses. Specifying 0 in this field indicates that socket addresses with any protocol can be returned by getaddrinfo().
    ai_flags
    This field specifies additional options, described below. Multiple flags are specified by logically OR-ing them together.

    All the other fields in the structure pointed to by hints must contain either 0 or a null pointer, as appropriate. Specifying hints as NULL is equivalent to setting ai_socktype and ai_protocol to 0; ai_family to AF_UNSPEC; and ai_flags to (AI_V4MAPPED | AI_ADDRCONFIG).

    node specifies either a numerical network address (for IPv4, numbers-and-dots notation as supported by inet_aton(3); for IPv6, hexadecimal string format as supported by inet_pton(3)), or a network hostname, whose network addresses are looked up and resolved. If hints.ai_flags contains the AI_NUMERICHOST flag then node must be a numerical network address. The AI_NUMERICHOST flag suppresses any potentially lengthy network host address lookups.

    If the AI_PASSIVE flag is specified in hints.ai_flags, and node is NULL, then the returned socket addresses will be suitable for bind(2)ing a socket that will accept(2) connections. The returned socket address will contain the "wildcard address" (INADDR_ANY for IPv4 addresses, IN6ADDR_ANY_INIT for IPv6 address). The wildcard address is used by applications (typically servers) that intend to accept connections on any of the hosts's network addresses. If node is not NULL, then the AI_PASSIVE flag is ignored.

    If the AI_PASSIVE flag is not set in hints.ai_flags, then the returned socket addresses will be suitable for use with connect(2), sendto(2), or sendmsg(2). If node is NULL, then the network address will be set to the loopback interface address (INADDR_LOOPBACK for IPv4 addresses, IN6ADDR_LOOPBACK_INIT for IPv6 address); this is used by applications that intend to communicate with peers running on the same host.

    service sets the port in each returned address structure. If this argument is a service name (see services(5)), it is translated to the corresponding port number. This argument can also be specified as a decimal number, which is simply converted to binary. If service is NULL, then the port number of the returned socket addresses will be left uninitialized. If AI_NUMERICSERV is specified in hints.ai_flags and service is not NULL, then service must point to a string containing a numeric port number. This flag is used to inhibit the invocation of a name resolution service in cases where it is known not to be required.

    Either node or service, but not both, may be NULL.

    The getaddrinfo() function allocates and initializes a linked list of addrinfo structures, one for each network address that matches node and service, subject to any restrictions imposed by hints, and returns a pointer to the start of the list in res. The items in the linked list are linked by the ai_next field. There are several reasons why the linked list may have more than one addrinfo structure, including: the network host is multi-homed; or the same service is available from multiple socket protocols (one SOCK_STREAM address and another SOCK_DGRAM address, for example).

    If hints.ai_flags includes the AI_CANONNAME flag, then the ai_canonname field of the first of the addrinfo structures in the returned list is set to point to the official name of the host.

    The remaining fields of each returned addrinfo structure are initialized as follows:

    *
    The ai_family, ai_socktype, and ai_protocol fields return the socket creation parameters (i.e., these fields have the same meaning as the corresponding arguments of socket(2)). For example, ai_family might return AF_INET or AF_INET6; ai_socktype might return SOCK_DGRAM or SOCK_STREAM; and ai_protocol returns the protocol for the socket.
    *
    A pointer to the socket address is placed in the ai_addr field, and the length of the socket address, in bytes, is placed in the ai_addrlen field.

    If hints.ai_flags includes the AI_ADDRCONFIG flag, then IPv4 addresses are returned in the list pointed to by result only if the local system has at least one IPv4 address configured, and IPv6 addresses are only returned if the local system has at least one IPv6 address configured.

    If hint.ai_flags specifies the AI_V4MAPPED flag, and hints.ai_family was specified as AF_INET6, and no matching IPv6 addresses could be found, then return IPv4-mapped IPv6 addresses in the list pointed to by result. If both AI_V4MAPPED and AI_ALL are specified in hints.ai_family, then return both IPv6 and IPv4-mapped IPv6 addresses in the list pointed to by result. AI_ALL is ignored if AI_V4MAPPED is not also specified.

    The freeaddrinfo() function frees the memory that was allocated for the dynamically allocated linked list res.  

    Extensions to getaddrinfo() for Internationalized Domain Names

    Starting with glibc 2.3.4, getaddrinfo() has been extended to selectively allow the incoming and outgoing hostnames to be transparently converted to and from the Internationalized Domain Name (IDN) format (see RFC 3490, Internationalizing Domain Names in Applications (IDNA)). Four new flags are defined:

    AI_IDN
    If this flag is specified, then the node name given in node is converted to IDN format if necessary. The source encoding is that of the current locale.

    If the input name contains non-ASCII characters, then the IDN encoding is used. Those parts of the node name (delimited by dots) that contain non-ASCII characters are encoded using ASCII Compatible Encoding (ACE) before being passed to the name resolution functions.

    AI_CANONIDN
    After a successful name lookup, and if the AI_CANONNAME flag was specified, getaddrinfo() will return the canonical name of the node corresponding to the addrinfo structure value passed back. The return value is an exact copy of the value returned by the name resolution function.

    If the name is encoded using ACE, then it will contain the xn-- prefix for one or more components of the name. To convert these components into a readable form the AI_CANONIDN flag can be passed in addition to AI_CANONNAME. The resulting string is encoded using the current locale's encoding.

    AI_IDN_ALLOW_UNASSIGNED, AI_IDN_USE_STD3_ASCII_RULES
    Setting these flags will enable the IDNA_ALLOW_UNASSIGNED (allow unassigned Unicode code points) and IDNA_USE_STD3_ASCII_RULES (check output to make sure it is a STD3 conforming hostname) flags respectively to be used in the IDNA handling.
     

    RETURN VALUE

    getaddrinfo() returns 0 if it succeeds, or one of the following non-zero error codes:
    EAI_ADDRFAMILY
    The specified network host does not have any network addresses in the requested address family.
    EAI_AGAIN
    The name server returned a temporary failure indication. Try again later.
    EAI_BADFLAGS
    hints.ai_flags contains invalid flags; or, hints.ai_flags included AI_CANONNAME and name was NULL.
    EAI_FAIL
    The name server returned a permanent failure indication.
    EAI_FAMILY
    The requested address family is not supported.
    EAI_MEMORY
    Out of memory.
    EAI_NODATA
    The specified network host exists, but does not have any network addresses defined.
    EAI_NONAME
    The node or service is not known; or both node and service are NULL; or AI_NUMERICSERV was specified in hints.ai_flags and service was not a numeric port-number string.
    EAI_SERVICE
    The requested service is not available for the requested socket type. It may be available through another socket type. For example, this error could occur if service was "shell" (a service only available on stream sockets), and either hints.ai_protocol was IPPROTO_UDP, or hints.ai_socktype was SOCK_DGRAM; or the error could occur if service was not NULL, and hints.ai_socktype was SOCK_RAW (a socket type that does not support the concept of services).
    EAI_SOCKTYPE
    The requested socket type is not supported. This could occur, for example, if hints.ai_socktype and hints.ai_protocol are inconsistent (e.g., SOCK_DGRAM and IPPROTO_TCP, repectively).
    EAI_SYSTEM
    Other system error, check errno for details.

    The gai_strerror() function translates these error codes to a human readable string, suitable for error reporting.  

    CONFORMING TO

    POSIX.1-2001. The getaddrinfo() function is documented in RFC 2553.  

    NOTES

    getaddrinfo() supports the address%scope-id notation for specifying the IPv6 scope-ID.

    AI_ADDRCONFIG, AI_ALL, and AI_V4MAPPED are available since glibc 2.3.3. AI_NUMERICSERV is available since glibc 2.3.4.
