<title>DESCRIPTION</title>
<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.
