Cannot be used when ARES_OPT_EVENT_THREAD is passed to ares_init_options(3). This function replaces the now dep- recated ares_set_socket_functions(3) call. These callback functions will be invoked to create/destroy socket ob- jects and perform io, instead of the normal system calls. A client ap- plication can override normal network operation fully through this functionality, and provide its own transport layer. Some callbacks may be optional and are documented as such below, but failing to implement such callbacks will disable certain features within c-ares. It is strongly recommended to implement all callbacks. All callback functions are expected to operate like their system equiv- alents, and to set errno(2) or WSASetLastError(2) to an appropriate er- ror code on failure. It is strongly recommended that io callbacks are implemented to be asynchronous and indicated as such in the flags mem- ber. The io callbacks can return error codes of EAGAIN, EWOULDBLOCK, or WSAEWOULDBLOCK when they would otherwise block. The user_data value is provided to each callback function invocation to serve as context. The ares_set_socket_functions_ex(3) must provide the following struc- ture members and callbacks (which are different from the ares_set_socket_functions(3) members and callbacks): unsigned int version ABI Version of structure. Must be set to a value of "1". unsigned int flags Flags available are specified in ares_sockfunc_flags_t. ares_socket_t (*asocket)(int domain, int type, int protocol, void * user_data) REQUIRED. Creates an endpoint for communication and returns a descriptor. domain, type, and protocol each correspond to the parameters of socket(2). Returns a handle to the newly created socket, or ARES_SOCKET_BAD on error. int (*aclose)(ares_socket_t fd, void * user_data) REQUIRED. Closes the socket endpoint indicated by fd. See close(2). int (*asetsockopt)(ares_socket_t fd, ares_socket_opt_t opt, const void * val, ares_socklen_t val_size, void * user_data) REQUIRED. Set socket option. This shares a similar syntax to the BSD setsockopt(2) call, however c-ares uses differ- ent options for portability. The value is a pointer to the desired value, and each option has its own data type listed in the options below defined in ares_socket_opt_t. int (*aconnect)(ares_socket_t fd, const struct sockaddr * addr, ares_socklen_t addr_len, unsigned int flags, void * user_data) REQUIRED. Initiate a connection to the address indicated by addr on a socket. Additional flags controlling behavior are in ares_socket_connect_flags_t. See connect(2). ares_ssize_t (*arecvfrom)(ares_socket_t fd, void * buffer, size_t buf_size, int flags, struct sockaddr * addr, ares_socklen_t * addr_len, void * user_data) REQUIRED. Receives data from remote socket endpoint, if available. If the addr parameter is not NULL and the con- nection protocol provides the source address, the callback should fill this in. The flags parameter is currently un- used. See recvfrom(2). ares_ssize_t (*asendto)(ares_socket_t fd, const void * buffer, size_t length, int flags, const struct sockaddr * address, ares_socklen_t address_len, void * user_data) REQUIRED. Send data, as provided by the buffer, to the socket endpoint. The flags member may be used on systems that have MSG_NOSIGNAL defined but is otherwise unused. An address is provided primarily to support TCP FastOpen sce- narios, which will be NULL in other circumstances. See sendto(2). int (*agetsockname)(ares_socket_t fd, struct sockaddr * address, ares_socklen_t * address_len, void * user_data) Optional. Retrieve the local address of a socket and store it into the provided address buffer. May impact DNS Cookies if not provided. See getsockname(2). int (*abind)(ares_socket_t fd, unsigned int flags, const struct sockaddr * address, ares_socklen_t address_len, void * user_data) Optional. Bind the socket to an address. This can be used for client connections to bind the source address for pack- ets before connect, or for server connections to bind to an address and port before listening. Currently c-ares only supports client connections. flags from ares_socket_bind_flags_t can be specified. See bind(2). unsigned int (*aif_nametoindex)(const char * ifname, void * user_data) Optional. Convert an interface name into the interface in- dex. If this callback is not specified, then IPv6 Link-Lo- cal DNS servers cannot be used. See if_nametoindex(2). const char * (*aif_indextoname)(unsigned int ifindex, char * if- name_buf, size_t ifname_buf_len, void * user_data) Optional. Convert an interface index into the interface name. If this callback is not specified, then IPv6 Link- Local DNS servers cannot be used. ifname_buf must be at least IF_NAMESIZE or IFNAMSIZ in size. See if_indexton- ame(2). ares_sockfunc_flags_t values: ARES_SOCKFUNC_FLAG_NONBLOCKING Used to indicate the implementation of the io functions are asynchronous. ares_socket_opt_t values: ARES_SOCKET_OPT_SENDBUF_SIZE Set the Send Buffer size. Value is a pointer to an int. (SO_SNDBUF). ARES_SOCKET_OPT_RECVBUF_SIZE Set the Receive Buffer size. Value is a pointer to an int. (SO_RCVBUF). ARES_SOCKET_OPT_BIND_DEVICE Set the network interface to use as the source for communi- cation. Value is a C string. (SO_BINDTODEVICE) ARES_SOCKET_OPT_TCP_FASTOPEN Enable TCP Fast Open. Value is a pointer to an ares_bool_t. On some systems this could be a no-op if it is known it is on by default and return success. Other systems may be a no-op if known the system does not support the feature and returns failure with errno set to ENOSYS or WSASetLastError(WSAEOPNOTSUPP);. ares_socket_connect_flags_t values: ARES_SOCKET_CONN_TCP_FASTOPEN Connect using TCP Fast Open. ares_socket_bind_flags_t values: ARES_SOCKET_BIND_TCP Bind is for a TCP connection. ARES_SOCKET_BIND_CLIENT Bind is for a client connection, not server. ares_set_socket_functions(3) sets a set of callback functions in the given ares channel handle. Cannot be used when ARES_OPT_EVENT_THREAD is passed to ares_init_options(3). This function is deprecated as of c-ares 1.34.0 in favor of ares_set_socket_functions_ex(3). ares_set_socket_functions(3) allows you to choose to only implement some of the socket functions, and provide NULL to any others and c-ares will use its built-in system functions in that case. All callback functions are expected to operate like their system equiv- alents, and to set errno(2) or WSASetLastError(2) to an appropriate er- ror code on failure. It is strongly recommended all io functions behave asynchronously and return error codes of EAGAIN, EWOULDBLOCK, or WSAE- WOULDBLOCK when they would otherwise block. The user_data value is provided to each callback function invocation to serve as context. The ares_set_socket_functions(3) must provide the following callbacks (which are different from the ares_set_socket_functions_ex(3) call- backs): ares_socket_t (*asocket)(int domain, int type, int protocol, void * user_data) Creates an endpoint for communication and returns a de- scriptor. domain, type, and protocol each correspond to the parameters of socket(2). Returns ahandle to the newly cre- ated socket, or ARES_SOCKET_BAD on error. int (*aclose)(ares_socket_t fd, void * user_data) Closes the socket endpoint indicated by fd. See close(2). int (*aconnect)(ares_socket_t fd, const struct sockaddr * addr, ares_socklen_t addr_len, void * user_data) Initiate a connection to the address indicated by addr on a socket. See connect(2) ares_ssize_t (*arecvfrom)(ares_socket_t fd, void * buffer, size_t buf_size, int flags, struct sockaddr * addr, ares_socklen_t * addr_len, void * user_data) Receives data from remote socket endpoint, if available. If the addr parameter is not NULL and the connection protocol provides the source address, the callback should fill this in. See recvfrom(2) ares_ssize_t (*asendv)(ares_socket_t fd, const struct iovec * data, int len, void * user_data) Send data, as provided by the iovec array data, to the socket endpoint. See writev(2) The ares_set_socket_functions(3) struct provided is not copied but di- rectly referenced, and must thus remain valid through out the channels and any created socket's lifetime. However, the ares_set_socket_func- tions_ex(3) struct is duplicated and does not need to survive past the call to the function.
