When the function returns, the address of the first byte of the encoded string is returned via +\fI*c\fR +and the length of that string is given by +\fI*len\fR\&. The buffer\*(Aqs current pointer is advanced to point at the character following the string length, the encoded string, and the trailing +\fBNULL\fR +character\&. +.PP +\fBlwres_addr_parse()\fR +extracts an address from the buffer +\fIb\fR\&. The buffer\*(Aqs current pointer +\fBb\->current\fR +is presumed to point at an encoded address: the address preceded by a 32\-bit protocol family identifier and a 16\-bit length field\&. The encoded address is copied to +\fBaddr\->address\fR +and +\fBaddr\->length\fR +indicates the size in bytes of the address that was copied\&. +\fBb\->current\fR +is advanced to point at the next byte of available data in the buffer following the encoded address\&. +.PP +\fBlwres_getaddrsbyname()\fR +and +\fBlwres_getnamebyaddr()\fR +use the +\fBlwres_gnbaresponse_t\fR +structure defined below: +.PP +.if n \{\ +.RS 4 +.\} +.nf +typedef struct { + uint32_t flags; + uint16_t naliases; + uint16_t naddrs; + char *realname; + char **aliases; + uint16_t realnamelen; + uint16_t *aliaslen; + lwres_addrlist_t addrs; + void *base; + size_t baselen; +} lwres_gabnresponse_t; +.fi +.if n \{\ +.RE +.\} +.PP +The contents of this structure are not manipulated directly but they are controlled through the +\fBlwres_gabn\fR(3) +functions\&. +.PP +The lightweight resolver uses +\fBlwres_getaddrsbyname()\fR +to perform forward lookups\&. Hostname +\fIname\fR +is looked up using the resolver context +\fIctx\fR +for memory allocation\&. +\fIaddrtypes\fR +is a bitmask indicating which type of addresses are to be looked up\&. Current values for this bitmask are +\fBLWRES_ADDRTYPE_V4\fR +for IPv4 addresses and +\fBLWRES_ADDRTYPE_V6\fR +for IPv6 addresses\&. Results of the lookup are returned in +\fI*structp\fR\&. +.PP +\fBlwres_getnamebyaddr()\fR +performs reverse lookups\&. Resolver context +\fIctx\fR +is used for memory allocation\&. The address type is indicated by +\fIaddrtype\fR: +\fBLWRES_ADDRTYPE_V4\fR +or +\fBLWRES_ADDRTYPE_V6\fR\&. The address to be looked up is given by +\fIaddr\fR +and its length is +\fIaddrlen\fR +bytes\&.
