GETNETENT_R(3)                                                          Linux Programmer's Manual                                                         GETNETENT_R(3)

NAME
       getnetent_r, getnetbyname_r, getnetbyaddr_r - get network entry (reentrant)

SYNOPSIS
       #include <netdb.h>

       int getnetent_r(struct netent *restrict result_buf,
                       char *restrict buf, size_t buflen,
                       struct netent **restrict result,
                       int *restrict h_errnop);
       int getnetbyname_r(const char *restrict name,
                       struct netent *restrict result_buf,
                       char *restrict buf, size_t buflen,
                       struct netent **restrict result,
                       int *restrict h_errnop);
       int getnetbyaddr_r(uint32_t net, int type,
                       struct netent *restrict result_buf,
                       char *restrict buf, size_t buflen,
                       struct netent **restrict result,
                       int *restrict h_errnop);

   Feature Test Macro Requirements for glibc (see feature_test_macros(7)):

       getnetent_r(), getnetbyname_r(), getnetbyaddr_r():
           Since glibc 2.19:
               _DEFAULT_SOURCE
           Glibc 2.19 and earlier:
               _BSD_SOURCE || _SVID_SOURCE

DESCRIPTION
       The  getnetent_r(),  getnetbyname_r(),  and getnetbyaddr_r() functions are the reentrant equivalents of, respectively, getnetent(3), getnetbyname(3), and getnet‐
       bynumber(3).  They differ in the way that the netent structure is returned, and in the function calling signature and return value.  This manual  page  describes
       just the differences from the nonreentrant functions.

       Instead of returning a pointer to a statically allocated netent structure as the function result, these functions copy the structure into the location pointed to
       by result_buf.

       The buf array is used to store the string fields pointed to by the returned netent structure.  (The nonreentrant functions allocate these strings in static stor‐
       age.)   The  size  of  this array is specified in buflen.  If buf is too small, the call fails with the error ERANGE, and the caller must try again with a larger
       buffer.  (A buffer of length 1024 bytes should be sufficient for most applications.)

       If the function call successfully obtains a network record, then *result is set pointing to result_buf; otherwise, *result is set to NULL.

       The buffer pointed to by h_errnop is used to return the value that would be stored in the global variable h_errno by the nonreentrant  versions  of  these  func‐
       tions.

RETURN VALUE
       On success, these functions return 0.  On error, they return one of the positive error numbers listed in ERRORS.

       On error, record not found (getnetbyname_r(), getnetbyaddr_r()), or end of input (getnetent_r()) result is set to NULL.

ERRORS
       ENOENT (getnetent_r()) No more records in database.

       ERANGE buf is too small.  Try again with a larger buffer (and increased buflen).
