<para>

This function is equivalent to the

<citerefentry>

<refentrytitle>getnameinfo</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum>

</citerefentry> function defined in RFC2133.

<function>lwres_getnameinfo()</function> returns the

hostname for the

<type>struct sockaddr</type> <parameter>sa</parameter> which

is

<parameter>salen</parameter> bytes long. The hostname is of

length

<parameter>hostlen</parameter> and is returned via

<parameter>*host.</parameter> The maximum length of the

hostname is

1025 bytes: <constant>NI_MAXHOST</constant>.

</para>

<para> The name of the service associated with the port number in

<parameter>sa</parameter> is returned in <parameter>*serv.</parameter>

It is <parameter>servlen</parameter> bytes long. The

maximum length

of the service name is <constant>NI_MAXSERV</constant> - 32

bytes.

</para>

<para>

The <parameter>flags</parameter> argument sets the

following

bits:

<variablelist>

<varlistentry>

<term><constant>NI_NOFQDN</constant></term>

<listitem>

<para>

A fully qualified domain name is not required for local hosts.

The local part of the fully qualified domain name is returned

instead.

</para>

</listitem>

</varlistentry>

<varlistentry>

<term><constant>NI_NUMERICHOST</constant></term>

<listitem>

<para>

Return the address in numeric form, as if calling inet_ntop(),

instead of a host name.

</para>

</listitem>

</varlistentry>

<varlistentry>

<term><constant>NI_NAMEREQD</constant></term>

<listitem>

<para>

A name is required. If the hostname cannot be found in the DNS

and

this flag is set, a non-zero error code is returned.

If the hostname is not found and the flag is not set, the

address is returned in numeric form.

</para>

</listitem>

</varlistentry>

<varlistentry>

<term><constant>NI_NUMERICSERV</constant></term>

<listitem>

<para>

The service name is returned as a digit string representing the

port number.

</para>

</listitem>

</varlistentry>

<varlistentry>

<term><constant>NI_DGRAM</constant></term>

<listitem>

<para>

Specifies that the service being looked up is a datagram

service, and causes getservbyport() to be called with a second

argument of "udp" instead of its default of "tcp". This is

required

for the few ports (512-514) that have different services for UDP

and

TCP.
