The .Fa types variable can be set to .Dv ADDR2NAME or .Dv NAME2ADDR . See the .Sx LIMITS section for more details. The .Fa ntpyes variable contains the number of .Fa types provided. .Pp The .Fn cap_dns_family_limit functions allows to limit address families. For details see .Sx LIMITS . The .Fa nfamilies variable contains the number of .Fa families provided. .Sh LIMITS The preferred way of setting limits is to use the .Fn cap_dns_type_limit and .Fn cap_dns_family_limit functions, but the limits of service can be set also using .Xr cap_limit_set 3 . The .Xr nvlist 9 for that function can contain the following values and types: .Bl -ohang -offset indent .It type ( NV_TYPE_STRING ) The .Va type can have two values: .Dv ADDR2NAME or .Dv NAME2ADDR . The .Dv ADDR2NAME means that reverse DNS lookups are allowed with .Fn cap_getnameinfo and .Fn cap_gethostbyaddr functions. In case when .Va type is set to .Dv NAME2ADDR the name resolution is allowed with .Fn cap_getaddrinfo , .Fn cap_gethostbyname , and .Fn cap_gethostbyname2 functions. .It family ( NV_TYPE_NUMBER ) The .Va family limits service to one of the address families (e.g. .Dv AF_INET , AF_INET6 , etc.). .Sh EXAMPLES The following example first opens a capability to casper and then uses this capability to create the .Nm system.dns casper service and uses it to resolve an IP address. .Bd -literal cap_channel_t *capcas, *capdns; int familylimit, error; const char *ipstr = "127.0.0.1"; const char *typelimit = "ADDR2NAME"; char hname[NI_MAXHOST]; struct addrinfo hints, *res; /* Open capability to Casper. */ capcas = cap_init(); if (capcas == NULL) err(1, "Unable to contact Casper"); /* Cache NLA for gai_strerror. */ caph_cache_catpages(); /* Enter capability mode sandbox. */ if (caph_enter() < 0) err(1, "Unable to enter capability mode"); /* Use Casper capability to create capability to the system.dns service. */ capdns = cap_service_open(capcas, "system.dns"); if (capdns == NULL) err(1, "Unable to open system.dns service"); /* Close Casper capability, we don't need it anymore. */ cap_close(capcas); /* Limit system.dns to reserve IPv4 addresses */ familylimit = AF_INET; if (cap_dns_family_limit(capdns, &familylimit, 1) < 0) err(1, "Unable to limit access to the system.dns service"); /* Convert IP address in C-string to struct sockaddr. */ memset(&hints, 0, sizeof(hints)); hints.ai_family = familylimit; hints.ai_flags = AI_NUMERICHOST; error = cap_getaddrinfo(capdns, ipstr, NULL, &hints, &res); if (error != 0) errx(1, "cap_getaddrinfo(): %s: %s", ipstr, gai_strerror(error)); /* Limit system.dns to reverse DNS lookups. */ if (cap_dns_type_limit(capdns, &typelimit, 1) < 0) err(1, "Unable to limit access to the system.dns service"); /* Find hostname for the given IP address. */ error = cap_getnameinfo(capdns, res->ai_addr, res->ai_addrlen, hname, sizeof(hname), NULL, 0, 0); if (error != 0) errx(1, "cap_getnameinfo(): %s: %s", ipstr, gai_strerror(error)); printf("Name associated with %s is %s.\\n", ipstr, hname); .Ed .Sh SEE ALSO .Xr cap_enter 2 , .Xr caph_enter 3 , .Xr err 3 , .Xr gethostbyaddr 3 , .Xr gethostbyname 3 , .Xr gethostbyname2 3 , .Xr getnameinfo 3 , .Xr capsicum 4 , .Xr nv 9 .Sh AUTHORS The .Nm cap_dns service was implemented by .An Pawel Jakub Dawidek Aq Mt pawel@dawidek.net under sponsorship from the FreeBSD Foundation. .Pp This manual page was written by .An Mariusz Zaborski Aq Mt oshogbo@FreeBSD.org .
