<title>DESCRIPTION</title>

<para>

These are low-level routines for creating and parsing

lightweight resolver address-to-name lookup request and

response messages.

</para>

<para>

There are four main functions for the getnamebyaddr opcode.

One render function converts a getnamebyaddr request structure &mdash;

<type>lwres_gnbarequest_t</type> &mdash;

to the lightweight resolver's canonical format.

It is complemented by a parse function that converts a packet in this

canonical format to a getnamebyaddr request structure.

Another render function converts the getnamebyaddr response structure

&mdash;

<type>lwres_gnbaresponse_t</type>

to the canonical format.

This is complemented by a parse function which converts a packet in

canonical format to a getnamebyaddr response structure.

</para>

<para>

These structures are defined in

<filename>lwres/lwres.h</filename>.

They are shown below.

</para>

} lwres_gnbaresponse_t;

</programlisting>

</para>

<para><function>lwres_gnbarequest_render()</function>

uses resolver context <varname>ctx</varname> to convert

getnamebyaddr request structure <varname>req</varname> to

canonical format. The packet header structure

<varname>pkt</varname> is initialised and transferred to buffer

<varname>b</varname>. The contents of <varname>*req</varname>

are then appended to the buffer in canonical format.

<function>lwres_gnbaresponse_render()</function> performs the

same task, except it converts a getnamebyaddr response structure

<type>lwres_gnbaresponse_t</type> to the lightweight resolver's

canonical format.

</para>

<para><function>lwres_gnbarequest_parse()</function>

uses context <varname>ctx</varname> to convert the contents of

packet <varname>pkt</varname> to a

<type>lwres_gnbarequest_t</type> structure. Buffer

<varname>b</varname> provides space to be used for storing this

structure. When the function succeeds, the resulting

<type>lwres_gnbarequest_t</type> is made available through

<varname>*structp</varname>.

<function>lwres_gnbaresponse_parse()</function> offers the same

semantics as <function>lwres_gnbarequest_parse()</function>

except it yields a <type>lwres_gnbaresponse_t</type> structure.

</para>

<para><function>lwres_gnbaresponse_free()</function>

and <function>lwres_gnbarequest_free()</function> release the

memory in resolver context <varname>ctx</varname> that was

allocated to the <type>lwres_gnbaresponse_t</type> or

<type>lwres_gnbarequest_t</type> structures referenced via

<varname>structp</varname>. Any memory associated with

ancillary buffers and strings for those structures is also

discarded.

</para>

<title>RETURN VALUES</title>

<para>

The getnamebyaddr opcode functions

<function>lwres_gnbarequest_render()</function>,

<function>lwres_gnbaresponse_render()</function>

<function>lwres_gnbarequest_parse()</function>

and

<function>lwres_gnbaresponse_parse()</function>

all return

<errorcode>LWRES_R_SUCCESS</errorcode>

on success.

They return

<errorcode>LWRES_R_NOMEMORY</errorcode>

if memory allocation fails.

<errorcode>LWRES_R_UNEXPECTEDEND</errorcode>

is returned if the available space in the buffer

<varname>b</varname>

is too small to accommodate the packet header or the

<type>lwres_gnbarequest_t</type>

and

<type>lwres_gnbaresponse_t</type>

structures.

<function>lwres_gnbarequest_parse()</function>

and

<function>lwres_gnbaresponse_parse()</function>

will return

<errorcode>LWRES_R_UNEXPECTEDEND</errorcode>

if the buffer is not empty after decoding the received packet.

These functions will return

<errorcode>LWRES_R_FAILURE</errorcode>

if

<structfield>pktflags</structfield>

in the packet header structure

<type>lwres_lwpacket_t</type>

indicate that the packet is not a response to an earlier query.
