Neither \fBsrc\fR or \&\fBdst\fR can be NULL. .PP \&\fBBIO_ADDR_dup()\fR creates a new \fBBIO_ADDR\fR, with a copy of the address data in \fBap\fR. .PP \&\fBBIO_ADDR_free()\fR frees a \fBBIO_ADDR\fR created with \fBBIO_ADDR_new()\fR or \fBBIO_ADDR_dup()\fR; .PP \&\fBBIO_ADDR_clear()\fR clears any data held within the provided \fBBIO_ADDR\fR and sets it back to an uninitialised state. .PP \&\fBBIO_ADDR_rawmake()\fR takes a protocol \fBfamily\fR, a byte array of size \fBwherelen\fR with an address in network byte order pointed at by \fBwhere\fR and a port number in network byte order in \fBport\fR (except for the \fBAF_UNIX\fR protocol family, where \fBport\fR is meaningless and therefore ignored) and populates the given \fBBIO_ADDR\fR with them. In case this creates a \fBAF_UNIX\fR \fBBIO_ADDR\fR, \fBwherelen\fR is expected to be the length of the path string (not including the terminating NUL, such as the result of a call to \fBstrlen()\fR). Read on about the addresses in "RAW ADDRESSES" below. .PP \&\fBBIO_ADDR_family()\fR returns the protocol family of the given \&\fBBIO_ADDR\fR. The possible non-error results are one of the constants AF_INET, AF_INET6 and AF_UNIX. It will also return AF_UNSPEC if the BIO_ADDR has not been initialised. .PP \&\fBBIO_ADDR_rawaddress()\fR will write the raw address of the given \&\fBBIO_ADDR\fR in the area pointed at by \fBp\fR if \fBp\fR is non-NULL, and will set \fB*l\fR to be the amount of bytes the raw address takes up if \fBl\fR is non-NULL. A technique to only find out the size of the address is a call with \fBp\fR set to \fBNULL\fR. The raw address will be in network byte order, most significant byte first. In case this is a \fBAF_UNIX\fR \fBBIO_ADDR\fR, \fBl\fR gets the length of the path string (not including the terminating NUL, such as the result of a call to \fBstrlen()\fR). Read on about the addresses in "RAW ADDRESSES" below. .PP \&\fBBIO_ADDR_rawport()\fR returns the raw port of the given \fBBIO_ADDR\fR. The raw port will be in network byte order. .PP \&\fBBIO_ADDR_hostname_string()\fR returns a character string with the hostname of the given \fBBIO_ADDR\fR. If \fBnumeric\fR is 1, the string will contain the numerical form of the address. This only works for \&\fBBIO_ADDR\fR of the protocol families AF_INET and AF_INET6. The returned string has been allocated on the heap and must be freed with \fBOPENSSL_free()\fR. .PP \&\fBBIO_ADDR_service_string()\fR returns a character string with the service name of the port of the given \fBBIO_ADDR\fR. If \fBnumeric\fR is 1, the string will contain the port number. This only works for \fBBIO_ADDR\fR of the protocol families AF_INET and AF_INET6. The returned string has been allocated on the heap and must be freed with \fBOPENSSL_free()\fR. .PP \&\fBBIO_ADDR_path_string()\fR returns a character string with the path of the given \fBBIO_ADDR\fR. This only works for \fBBIO_ADDR\fR of the protocol family AF_UNIX. The returned string has been allocated on the heap and must be freed with \fBOPENSSL_free()\fR. .SH "RAW ADDRESSES" .IX Header "RAW ADDRESSES" Both \fBBIO_ADDR_rawmake()\fR and \fBBIO_ADDR_rawaddress()\fR take a pointer to a network byte order address of a specific site. Internally, those are treated as a pointer to \fBstruct in_addr\fR (for \fBAF_INET\fR), \fBstruct in6_addr\fR (for \fBAF_INET6\fR) or \fBchar *\fR (for \fBAF_UNIX\fR), all depending on the protocol family the address is for. .SH "RETURN VALUES" .IX Header "RETURN VALUES" The string producing functions \fBBIO_ADDR_hostname_string()\fR, \&\fBBIO_ADDR_service_string()\fR and \fBBIO_ADDR_path_string()\fR will return \fBNULL\fR on error and leave an error indication on the OpenSSL error stack. .PP \&\fBBIO_ADDR_copy()\fR returns 1 on success or 0 on error. .PP All other functions described here return 0 or \fBNULL\fR when the information they should return isn't available. .SH "SEE ALSO" .IX Header "SEE ALSO" \&\fBBIO_connect\fR\|(3), \fBBIO_s_connect\fR\|(3) .SH HISTORY .IX Header "HISTORY" \&\fBBIO_ADDR_copy()\fR and \fBBIO_ADDR_dup()\fR were added in OpenSSL 3.2. .SH COPYRIGHT .IX Header "COPYRIGHT" Copyright 2016\-2023 The OpenSSL Project Authors.
