B<family>, B<socktype> and B<protocol> are used to 48determine what protocol family, socket type and protocol should be used for 49the lookup. B<family> can be any of AF_INET, AF_INET6, AF_UNIX and 50AF_UNSPEC. B<socktype> can be SOCK_STREAM, SOCK_DGRAM or 0. Specifying 0 51indicates that any type can be used. B<protocol> specifies a protocol such as 52IPPROTO_TCP, IPPROTO_UDP or IPPORTO_SCTP. If set to 0 than any protocol can be 53used. B<res> points at a pointer to hold the start of a B<BIO_ADDRINFO> 54chain. 55 56For the family B<AF_UNIX>, BIO_lookup_ex() will ignore the B<service> 57parameter and expects the B<node> parameter to hold the path to the 58socket file. 59 60BIO_lookup() does the same as BIO_lookup_ex() but does not provide the ability 61to select based on the protocol (any protocol may be returned). 62 63BIO_ADDRINFO_family() returns the family of the given 64B<BIO_ADDRINFO>. The result will be one of the constants 65AF_INET, AF_INET6 and AF_UNIX. 66 67BIO_ADDRINFO_socktype() returns the socket type of the given 68B<BIO_ADDRINFO>. The result will be one of the constants 69SOCK_STREAM and SOCK_DGRAM. 70 71BIO_ADDRINFO_protocol() returns the protocol id of the given 72B<BIO_ADDRINFO>. The result will be one of the constants 73IPPROTO_TCP and IPPROTO_UDP. 74 75BIO_ADDRINFO_address() returns the underlying B<BIO_ADDR> 76of the given B<BIO_ADDRINFO>. 77 78BIO_ADDRINFO_next() returns the next B<BIO_ADDRINFO> in the chain 79from the given one. 80 81BIO_ADDRINFO_free() frees the chain of B<BIO_ADDRINFO> starting 82with the given one. 83 84=head1 RETURN VALUES 85 86BIO_lookup_ex() and BIO_lookup() return 1 on success and 0 when an error 87occurred, and will leave an error indication on the OpenSSL error stack in that 88case. 89 90All other functions described here return 0 or B<NULL> when the 91information they should return isn't available. 92 93=head1 NOTES 94 95The BIO_lookup_ex() implementation uses the platform provided getaddrinfo() 96function. On Linux it is known that specifying 0 for the protocol will not 97return any SCTP based addresses when calling getaddrinfo(). Therefore, if an SCTP 98address is required then the B<protocol> parameter to BIO_lookup_ex() should be 99explicitly set to IPPROTO_SCTP. The same may be true on other platforms. 100 101=head1 HISTORY 102 103The BIO_lookup_ex() function was added in OpenSSL 1.1.1. 104 105=head1 COPYRIGHT 106 107Copyright 2016-2020 The OpenSSL Project Authors.
