- When there is no room for returning the result, nss backend

have to return ERANGE and terminate with NS_RETURN. - When gethostbyname_r(3) and the friends end with an error, set errno to the value nss backend returns, and return errno value. PR: kern/131623 MFC after: 2 weeks

Fix gethostbyaddr() prototype to conform to IEEE Std 1003.1:

http://www.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/009695399/functions/gethostbyaddr.html gethostbyaddr_r() is changed as well. It breaks ABI backward compatibility on 64 bit arch. So, we fix it on 32 bit arch only for now. Reported by: Rostislav Krasny

Update the resolver in libc to BIND9's one.

Since, res_sendsigned(3) and the friends use MD5 functions, it is hard to include them without having MD5 functions in libc. So, res_sendsigned(3) is not merged into libc. Since, res_update(3) in BIND9 is not binary compatible with our res_update(3), res_update(3) is leaved as is, except some necessary modifications. The res_update(3) and the friends are not essential part of the resolver. They are not defined in resolv.h but defined in res_update.h separately in BIND9. Further, they are not called from our tree. So, I hide them from our resolv.h, but leave them only for binary backward compatibility (perhaps, no one calls them). Since, struct __res_state_ext is not exposed in BIND9, I hide it from our resolv.h. And, global variable _res_ext is removed. It breaks binary backward compatibility. But, since it is not used from outside of our libc, I think it is safe. Reviewed by: arch@ (no objection)

don't see RES_USE_INET6 when called from getipnodeby*().

oops, gethostbyaddr(3) must return h_addr as an IPv4-mapped

_gethostbynisname() didn't support RES_USE_INET6.

NETDB_INTERNAL is not fit, here. return NO_RECOVERY for h_errno.

2005-04-29T17:36:54Z

we cannot use inet_ntoa(3), here. so, use inet_ntop(3), instead.
