.SH DESCRIPTION
|
|
The \fBares_init_options(3)\fP function initializes a communications channel
|
|
for name service lookups. If it returns successfully,
|
|
\fBares_init_options(3)\fP will set the variable pointed to by
|
|
\fIchannelptr\fP to a handle used to identify the name service channel. The
|
|
caller should invoke \fIares_destroy(3)\fP on the handle when the channel is
|
|
no longer needed.
|
|
|
|
The \fIoptmask\fP parameter generally specifies which fields in the structure pointed to
|
|
by \fIoptions\fP are set, as follows:
|
|
.TP 18
|
|
.B ARES_OPT_FLAGS
|
|
.B int \fIflags\fP;
|
|
.br
|
|
Flags controlling the behavior of the resolver. See below for a
|
|
description of possible flag values.
|
|
.TP 18
|
|
.B ARES_OPT_TIMEOUT
|
|
.B int \fItimeout\fP;
|
|
.br
|
|
The number of seconds each name server is given to respond to a query on the
|
|
first try. (After the first try, the timeout algorithm becomes more
|
|
complicated, but scales linearly with the value of \fItimeout\fP.) The
|
|
default is five seconds. This option is being deprecated by
|
|
\fIARES_OPT_TIMEOUTMS\fP starting in c-ares 1.5.2.
|
|
.TP 18
|
|
.B ARES_OPT_TIMEOUTMS
|
|
.B int \fItimeout\fP;
|
|
.br
|
|
The number of milliseconds each name server is given to respond to a query on
|
|
the first try. (After the first try, the timeout algorithm becomes more
|
|
complicated, but scales linearly with the value of \fItimeout\fP.) The
|
|
default is five seconds. Note that this option is specified with the same
|
|
struct field as the former \fIARES_OPT_TIMEOUT\fP, it is but the option bits
|
|
that tell c-ares how to interpret the number. This option was added in c-ares
|
|
1.5.2.
|
|
.TP 18
|
|
.B ARES_OPT_TRIES
|
|
.B int \fItries\fP;
|
|
.br
|
|
The number of tries the resolver will try contacting each name server
|
|
before giving up. The default is four tries.
|
|
.TP 18
|
|
.B ARES_OPT_NDOTS
|
|
.B int \fIndots\fP;
|
|
.br
|
|
The number of dots which must be present in a domain name for it to be
|
|
queried for "as is" prior to querying for it with the default domain
|
|
extensions appended. The default value is 1 unless set otherwise by
|
|
resolv.conf or the RES_OPTIONS environment variable.
|
|
.TP 18
|
|
.B ARES_OPT_UDP_PORT
|
|
.B unsigned short \fIudp_port\fP;
|
|
.br
|
|
The port to use for queries over UDP, in host byte order.
|
|
The default value is 53, the standard name service port.
|
|
.TP 18
|
|
.B ARES_OPT_TCP_PORT
|
|
.B unsigned short \fItcp_port\fP;
|
|
.br
|
|
The port to use for queries over TCP, in host byte order.
|
|
The default value is 53, the standard name service port.
|
|
.TP 18
|
|
.B ARES_OPT_SERVERS
|
|
.B struct in_addr *\fIservers\fP;
|
|
.br
|
|
.B int \fInservers\fP;
|
|
.br
|
|
The list of IPv4 servers to contact, instead of the servers specified in
|
|
resolv.conf or the local named. In order to allow specification of either
|
|
IPv4 or IPv6 name servers, the
|
|
.BR ares_set_servers(3)
|
|
function must be used instead.
|
|
.TP 18
|
|
.B ARES_OPT_DOMAINS
|
|
.B char **\fIdomains\fP;
|
|
.br
|
|
.B int \fIndomains\fP;
|
|
.br
|
|
The domains to search, instead of the domains specified in resolv.conf
|
|
or the domain derived from the kernel hostname variable.
|
|
.TP 18
|
|
.B ARES_OPT_LOOKUPS
|
|
.B char *\fIlookups\fP;
|
|
.br
|
|
The lookups to perform for host queries.
|
|
.I lookups
|
|
should be set to a string of the characters "b" or "f", where "b"
|
|
indicates a DNS lookup and "f" indicates a lookup in the hosts file.
|
|
.TP 18
|
|
.B ARES_OPT_SOCK_STATE_CB
|
|
.B void (*\fIsock_state_cb\fP)(void *data, ares_socket_t socket_fd, int readable, int writable);
|
|
.br
|
|
.B void *\fIsock_state_cb_data\fP;
|
|
.br
|
|
A callback function to be invoked when a socket changes state.
|
|
.I socket_fd
|
|
will be passed the socket whose state has changed;
|
|
.I readable
|
|
will be set to true if the socket should listen for read events, and
|
|
.I writable
|
|
will be set to true if the socket should listen for write events.
|
|
The value of
|
|
.I sock_state_cb_data
|
|
will be passed as the
|
|
.I data
|
|
argument.
|
|
.TP 18
|
|
.B ARES_OPT_SORTLIST
|
|
.B struct apattern *\fIsortlist\fP;
|
|
.br
|
|
.B int \fInsort\fP;
|
|
.br
|
|
A list of IP address ranges that specifies the order of preference that
|
|
results from \fIares_gethostbyname\fP should be returned in. Note that
|
|
this can only be used with a sortlist retrieved via
|
|
\fBares_save_options(3)\fP (because
|
|
.B struct apattern
|
|
is opaque); to set a fresh sort list, use \fBares_set_sortlist(3)\fP.
|
|
.TP 18
|
|
.B ARES_OPT_SOCK_SNDBUF
|
|
.B int \fIsocket_send_buffer_size\fP;
|
|
.br
|
|
The send buffer size to set for the socket.
|
|
.TP 18
|
|
.B ARES_OPT_SOCK_RCVBUF

|
.B ARES_OPT_EDNSPSZ
|
|
.B int \fIednspsz\fP;
|
|
.br
|
|
The message size to be advertized in EDNS; only takes effect if the
|
|
.B ARES_FLAG_EDNS
|
|
flag is set.
|
|
.TP 18
|
|
.B ARES_OPT_RESOLVCONF
|
|
.B char *\fIresolvconf_path\fP;
|
|
.br
|
|
The path to use for reading the resolv.conf file. The
|
|
.I resolvconf_path
|
|
should be set to a path string, and will be honoured on *nix like systems. The
|
|
default is
|
|
.B /etc/resolv.conf
|
|
.br
|
|
.TP 18
|
|
.B ARES_OPT_HOSTS_FILE
|
|
.B char *\fIhosts_path\fP;
|
|
.br
|
|
The path to use for reading the hosts file. The
|
|
.I hosts_path
|
|
should be set to a path string, and will be honoured on *nix like systems. The
|
|
default is
|
|
.B /etc/hosts
|
|
.br
|
|
.PP
|
|
The \fIoptmask\fP parameter also includes options without a corresponding
|
|
field in the
|
|
.B ares_options
|
|
structure, as follows:
|
|
.TP 23
|
|
.B ARES_OPT_ROTATE
|
|
Perform round-robin selection of the nameservers configured for the channel
|
|
for each resolution.
|
|
.TP 23
|
|
.B ARES_OPT_NOROTATE
|
|
Do not perform round-robin nameserver selection; always use the list of
|
|
nameservers in the same order.
|
|
.PP
|
|
The
|
|
.I flags
|
|
field should be the bitwise or of some subset of the following values:
|
|
.TP 23
|
|
.B ARES_FLAG_USEVC
|
|
Always use TCP queries (the "virtual circuit") instead of UDP
|
|
queries. Normally, TCP is only used if a UDP query yields a truncated
|
|
result.
|
|
.TP 23
|
|
.B ARES_FLAG_PRIMARY
|
|
Only query the first server in the list of servers to query.
|
|
.TP 23
|
|
.B ARES_FLAG_IGNTC
|
|
If a truncated response to a UDP query is received, do not fall back
|
|
to TCP; simply continue on with the truncated response.
|
|
.TP 23
|
|
.B ARES_FLAG_NORECURSE
|
|
Do not set the "recursion desired" bit on outgoing queries, so that the name
|
|
server being contacted will not try to fetch the answer from other servers if
|
|
it doesn't know the answer locally. Be aware that ares will not do the
|
|
recursion for you. Recursion must be handled by the application calling ares
|
|
if \fIARES_FLAG_NORECURSE\fP is set.
|
|
.TP 23
|
|
.B ARES_FLAG_STAYOPEN
|
|
Do not close communications sockets when the number of active queries
|
|
drops to zero.
|
|
.TP 23
|
|
.B ARES_FLAG_NOSEARCH
|
|
Do not use the default search domains; only query hostnames as-is or
|
|
as aliases.
|
|
.TP 23
|
|
.B ARES_FLAG_NOALIASES
|
|
Do not honor the HOSTALIASES environment variable, which normally
|
|
specifies a file of hostname translations.
|
|
.TP 23
|
|
.B ARES_FLAG_NOCHECKRESP
|
|
Do not discard responses with the SERVFAIL, NOTIMP, or REFUSED
|
|
response code or responses whose questions don't match the questions
|
|
in the request. Primarily useful for writing clients which might be
|
|
used to test or debug name servers.
|
|
.TP 23
|
|
.B ARES_FLAG_EDNS
|
|
Include an EDNS pseudo-resource record (RFC 2671) in generated requests.
|
|
.SH RETURN VALUES
|
|
\fBares_init_options(3)\fP can return any of the following values:
|
|
.TP 14
|
|
.B ARES_SUCCESS
|
|
Initialization succeeded.
|
|
.TP 14
|
|
.B ARES_EFILE
|
|
A configuration file could not be read.
|
|
.TP 14
|
|
.B ARES_ENOMEM
|
|
The process's available memory was exhausted.
|
|
.TP 14
|
|
.B ARES_ENOTINITIALIZED
|
|
c-ares library initialization not yet performed.
|
|
.SH NOTES
|
|
When initializing from
|
|
.B /etc/resolv.conf,
|
|
(or, alternatively when specified by the
|
|
.I resolvconf_path
|
|
path location)
|
|
\fBares_init_options(3)\fP reads the \fIdomain\fP and \fIsearch\fP directives
|
|
to allow lookups of short names relative to the domains specified. The
|
|
\fIdomain\fP and \fIsearch\fP directives override one another. If more that
|
|
one instance of either \fIdomain\fP or \fIsearch\fP directives is specified,
|
|
the last occurrence wins. For more information, please see the
|
|
.BR resolv.conf (5)
|
|
manual page.
