36 /**
37  * \file
38  *
39  * This file contains the unbound interface for use with libevent.
40  * You have to use the same libevent that unbound was compiled with,
41  * otherwise it wouldn't work, the event and event_base structures would
42  * be different.  If unbound is compiled without libevent support then
43  * this header file is not supposed to be installed on the system.
44  *
45  * Use ub_ctx_create_event_base() to create an unbound context that uses
46  * the event base that you have made.  Then, use the ub_resolve_event call
47  * to add DNS resolve queries to the context.  Those then run when you
48  * call event_dispatch() on your event_base, and when they are done you
49  * get a function callback.
50  *
51  * This method does not fork another process or create a thread, the effort
52  * is done by the unbound state machines that are connected to the event_base.

109  *	with packet: a buffer with DNS wireformat packet with the answer.
110  *		do not inspect if rcode != 0.
111  *		do not write or free the packet buffer, it is used internally
112  *		in unbound (for other callbacks that want the same data).

124  *	returned for the query as it is in progress. It can be used to
