-.SH DESCRIPTION
-The
-.BR getprotoent_r (),
-.BR getprotobyname_r (),
-and
-.BR getprotobynumber_r ()
-functions are the reentrant equivalents of, respectively,
-.BR getprotoent (3),
-.BR getprotobyname (3),
-and
-.BR getprotobynumber (3).
-They differ in the way that the
-.I protoent
-structure is returned,
-and in the function calling signature and return value.
-This manual page describes just the differences from
-the nonreentrant functions.
-.P
-Instead of returning a pointer to a statically allocated
-.I protoent
-structure as the function result,
-these functions copy the structure into the location pointed to by
-.IR result_buf .
-.P
-The
-.I buf
-array is used to store the string fields pointed to by the returned
-.I protoent
-structure.
-(The nonreentrant functions allocate these strings in static storage.)
-The size of this array is specified in
-.IR buflen .
-If
-.I buf
-is too small, the call fails with the error
-.BR ERANGE ,
-and the caller must try again with a larger buffer.
-(A buffer of length 1024 bytes should be sufficient for most applications.)
-.\" I can find no information on the required/recommended buffer size;
-.\" the nonreentrant functions use a 1024 byte buffer.
-.\" The 1024 byte value is also what the Solaris man page suggests. -- mtk
-.P
-If the function call successfully obtains a protocol record, then
-.I *result
-is set pointing to
-.IR result_buf ;
-otherwise,
-.I *result
-is set to NULL.
-.SH RETURN VALUE
-On success, these functions return 0.
-On error, they return one of the positive error numbers listed in ERRORS.
-.P
-On error, record not found
-.RB ( getprotobyname_r (),
-.BR getprotobynumber_r ()),
-or end of input
-.RB ( getprotoent_r ())
-.I result
-is set to NULL.
-.SH ERRORS
-.TP
-.B ENOENT
-.RB ( getprotoent_r ())
-No more records in database.
-.TP
-.B ERANGE
-.I buf
-is too small.
-Try again with a larger buffer
-(and increased
-.IR buflen ).

-.SH VERSIONS
-Functions with similar names exist on some other systems,
-though typically with different calling signatures.
-.SH STANDARDS
-GNU.
-.SH EXAMPLES
-The program below uses
-.BR getprotobyname_r ()
-to retrieve the protocol record for the protocol named
-in its first command-line argument.
-If a second (integer) command-line argument is supplied,
-it is used as the initial value for
-.IR buflen ;
-if
-.BR getprotobyname_r ()
-fails with the error
-.BR ERANGE ,
-the program retries with larger buffer sizes.
-The following shell session shows a couple of sample runs:
-.P
-.in +4n
-.EX
-.RB "$" " ./a.out tcp 1"
-ERANGE! Retrying with larger buffer
-getprotobyname_r() returned: 0 (success) (buflen=78)
-p_name=tcp; p_proto=6; aliases=TCP
-.RB "$" " ./a.out xxx 1"
-ERANGE! Retrying with larger buffer
-getprotobyname_r() returned: 0 (success) (buflen=100)
-Call failed/record not found
