This +information is considered to be stored in a database that can be +accessed sequentially or randomly. The implementation of this database +is unspecified. +.P +The +\fIsetnetent\fR() +function shall open and rewind the database. If the +.IR stayopen +argument is non-zero, the connection to the +.IR net +database shall not be closed after each call to +\fIgetnetent\fR() +(either directly, or indirectly through one of the other +.IR getnet* (\|) +functions), and the implementation may maintain an open file descriptor +to the database. +.P +The +\fIgetnetent\fR() +function shall read the next entry of the database, opening and +closing a connection to the database as necessary. +.P +The +\fIgetnetbyaddr\fR() +function shall search the database from the beginning, and find the +first entry for which the address family specified by +.IR type +matches the +.IR n_addrtype +member and the network number +.IR net +matches the +.IR n_net +member, opening and closing a connection to the database as necessary. +The +.IR net +argument shall be the network number in host byte order. +.P +The +\fIgetnetbyname\fR() +function shall search the database from the beginning and find the +first entry for which the network name specified by +.IR name +matches the +.IR n_name +member, opening and closing a connection to the database as necessary. +.P +The +\fIgetnetbyaddr\fR(), +\fIgetnetbyname\fR(), +and +\fIgetnetent\fR() +functions shall each return a pointer to a +.BR netent +structure, the members of which shall contain the fields of an entry in +the network database. +.P +The +\fIendnetent\fR() +function shall close the database, releasing any open file descriptor. +.P +These functions need not be thread-safe. +.SH "RETURN VALUE" +Upon successful completion, +\fIgetnetbyaddr\fR(), +\fIgetnetbyname\fR(), +and +\fIgetnetent\fR() +shall return a pointer to a +.BR netent +structure if the requested entry was found, and a null pointer if the +end of the database was reached or the requested entry was not found. +Otherwise, a null pointer shall be returned. +.P +The application shall not modify the structure to which the return +value points, nor any storage areas pointed to by pointers within the +structure. The returned pointer, and pointers within the structure, +might be invalidated or the structure or the storage areas might be +overwritten by a subsequent call to +\fIgetnetbyaddr\fR(), +\fIgetnetbyname\fR(), +or +\fIgetnetent\fR(). +The returned pointer, and pointers within the structure, might also be +invalidated if the calling thread is terminated. +.SH ERRORS +No errors are defined. +.LP +.IR "The following sections are informative." +.SH "EXAMPLES" +None. +.SH "APPLICATION USAGE" +None. +.SH "RATIONALE" +None. +.SH "FUTURE DIRECTIONS" +None. +.SH "SEE ALSO" +The Base Definitions volume of POSIX.1\(hy2017, +.IR "\fB<netdb.h>\fP" +.\" +.SH COPYRIGHT +Portions of this text are reprinted and reproduced in electronic form +from IEEE Std 1003.1-2017, Standard for Information Technology +-- Portable Operating System Interface (POSIX), The Open Group Base +Specifications Issue 7, 2018 Edition, +Copyright (C) 2018 by the Institute of +Electrical and Electronics Engineers, Inc and The Open Group. +In the event of any discrepancy between this version and the original IEEE and +The Open Group Standard, the original IEEE and The Open Group Standard +is the referee document.
