Little testprog using gethostbyname and getaddrinfo to resolve argv[1]
Your testcase is buggy, a->ai_addr points to struct sockaddr_in in your case, not IP itself. Works for me just fine (after fixing that bug) with glibc-2.3.2-101.4 and glibc-2.3.2-95.6. Please accept my excuses for sending in faulty code, I never got to that part of the code, because in my case the getaddrinfo() functions just failed (and still does). |
From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.5) Gecko/20031007 Firebird/0.7 Description of problem: With glic2.3.2 getaddrinfo() no longer resolves 0 as 0.0.0.0 aka localhost. In my experience, previous versions did. The gethostbyname*() functions still do resolve 0 as 0.0.0.0. I used a little testprog I will attach. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): glibc-2.3.2 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. compile my testprog 2. run it with argument '0': ./a.out '0' Actual Results: Output of my testporg: gethostbyname: 0.0.0.0 getaddrinfo: 0 unresolvable: Name or service not known Expected Results: gethostbyname: 0.0.0.0 getaddrinfo: 0.0.0.0 Additional info: If this resolving issue is changed intentionally, I would have appreciated it, if there had been some kind of documentation about the change in this minor version upgrade. glibc2.3.1 still acts the way I am used to.
