.SH DESCRIPTION
|
|
The
|
|
.B ares_search
|
|
function initiates a series of single-question DNS queries on the name
|
|
service channel identified by
|
|
.IR channel ,
|
|
using the channel's search domains as well as a host alias file given
|
|
by the HOSTALIAS environment variable. The parameter
|
|
.I name
|
|
gives the alias name or the base of the query name as a NUL-terminated
|
|
C string of period-separated labels; if it ends with a period, the
|
|
channel's search domains will not be used. Periods and backslashes
|
|
within a label must be escaped with a backslash. The parameters
|
|
.I dnsclass
|
|
and
|
|
.I type
|
|
give the class and type of the query using the values defined in
|
|
.BR <arpa/nameser.h> .
|
|
When the query sequence is complete or has failed, the ares library
|
|
will invoke
|
|
.IR callback .
|
|
Completion or failure of the query sequence may happen immediately, or
|
|
may happen during a later call to
|
|
.BR ares_process (3)
|
|
or
|
|
.BR ares_destroy (3).
|
|
.PP
|
|
The callback argument
|
|
.I arg
|
|
is copied from the
|
|
.B ares_search
|
|
argument
|
|
.IR arg .
|
|
The callback argument
|
|
.I status
|
|
indicates whether the query sequence ended with a successful query
|
|
and, if not, how the query sequence failed. It may have any of the
|
|
following values:
|
|
.TP 19
|
|
.B ARES_SUCCESS
|
|
A query completed successfully.
|
|
.TP 19
|
|
.B ARES_ENODATA
|
|
No query completed successfully; when the query was tried without a
|
|
search domain appended, a response was returned with no answers.
|
|
.TP 19
|
|
.B ARES_EFORMERR
|
|
A query completed but the server claimed that the query was
|
|
malformatted.
|
|
.TP 19
|
|
.B ARES_ESERVFAIL
|
|
No query completed successfully; when the query was tried without a
|
|
search domain appended, the server claimed to have experienced a
|
|
failure. (This code can only occur if the
|
|
.B ARES_FLAG_NOCHECKRESP
|
|
flag was specified at channel initialization time; otherwise, such
|
|
responses are ignored at the
|
|
.BR ares_send (3)
|
|
level.)
|
|
.TP 19
|
|
.B ARES_ENOTFOUND
|
|
No query completed successfully; when the query was tried without a
|
|
search domain appended, the server reported that the queried-for
|
|
domain name was not found.
|
|
.TP 19
|
|
.B ARES_ENOTIMP
|
|
A query completed but the server does not implement the operation
|
|
requested by the query. (This code can only occur if the
|
|
.B ARES_FLAG_NOCHECKRESP
|
|
flag was specified at channel initialization time; otherwise, such
|
|
responses are ignored at the
|
|
.BR ares_send (3)
|
|
level.)
|
|
.TP 19
|
|
.B ARES_EREFUSED
|
|
A query completed but the server refused the query. (This code can
|
|
only occur returned if the
|
|
.B ARES_FLAG_NOCHECKRESP
|
|
flag was specified at channel initialization time; otherwise, such
|
|
responses are ignored at the
|
|
.BR ares_send (3)
|
|
level.)
|
|
.TP 19
|
|
.B ARES_TIMEOUT
|
|
No name servers responded to a query within the timeout period.
|
|
.TP 19
|
|
.B ARES_ECONNREFUSED
|
|
No name servers could be contacted.
|
|
.TP 19
|
|
.B ARES_ENOMEM
|
|
Memory was exhausted.
|
|
.TP 19
|
|
.B ARES_EDESTRUCTION
|
|
The name service channel
|
|
.I channel
|
|
is being destroyed; the query will not be completed.
|
|
.PP
|
|
If a query completed successfully, the callback argument
|
|
.I abuf
|
|
points to a result buffer of length
|
|
.IR alen .
|
|
If the query did not complete successfully,
|
|
.I abuf
|
|
will usually be NULL and
|
|
.I alen
|
|
will usually be 0, but in some cases an unsuccessful query result may
|
|
be placed in
|
|
.IR abuf .
