api: Add entrypoints to allow use of per-server ports
Add user-visible entrypoints ares_{get,set}_servers_ports(3), which
take struct ares_addr_port_node rather than struct ares_addr_node.
This structure includes a UDP and TCP port number; if this is set
to zero, the channel-wide port values are used as before.
Similarly, add a new ares_set_servers_ports_csv(3) entrypoint, which
is analogous to ares_set_servers(3) except it doesn't ignore any
specified port information; instead, any per-server specified port
is used as both the UDP and TCP port for that server.
The internal struct ares_addr is extended to hold the UDP/TCP ports,
stored in network order, with the convention that a value of zero
indicates that the channel-wide UDP/TCP port should be used.
For the internal implementation of ares_dup(3), shift to use the
_ports() version of the get/set functions, so port information is
transferred correctly to the new channel.

|
|
|
|
The \fBares_get_servers(3)\fP function retrieves name servers configuration
|
|
|
|
from the
|
|
|
|
channel data identified by
|
|
|
|
.IR channel ,
|
|
|
|
as a linked list of ares_addr_node structs storing a pointer to the first
|
|
|
|
node at the address specified by
|
|
|
|
.IR servers .

The \fBares_get_servers_ports(3)\fP function also retrieves any per-server

port information that may have been previously configured, returning a linked

list of ares_addr_port structures.

it directly as suitable input for the \fBares_set_servers(3)\fP /
|
|
|
|
\fBares_set_servers_ports(3)\fP functions, but
|
|
|
|
shall not shrink or extend the list on its own.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Each node of the name server linked list is stored in memory dynamically
|
|
|
|
allocated and managed by c-ares. It is the caller's responsibility to free
|
|
|
|
the resulting linked list, using \fBares_free_data(3)\fP , once the caller
|
|
|
|
does not need it any longer.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This function is capable of handling IPv4 and IPv6 name server
|
|
|
|
addresses simultaneously, rendering \fBares_save_options(3)\fP with
|
|
|
|
optmask \fBARES_OPT_SERVERS\fP functionally obsolete except for
|
|
|
|
IPv4-only name server usage.
