getaddrinfo function always return -11(EAI_SYSTEM) even if I typed "google.com" on my embedded linux. But nslookup command works well. The sample code has no problem because it works on Ubuntu. So I think it is linux system's problem. Also I checked errno and it returns "Device or resource busy".
This is the sample code
#include <stdio.h>
#include <string.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <netdb.h>
#include <sys/types.h>
#include <sys/socket.h>
#include <arpa/inet.h>
int
lookup_host (const char *host)
{
struct addrinfo hints, *res, *result;
int errcode;
char addrstr[100];
void *ptr;
memset (&hints, 0, sizeof (hints));
hints.ai_family = PF_UNSPEC;
hints.ai_socktype = SOCK_STREAM;
hints.ai_flags |= AI_CANONNAME;
errcode = getaddrinfo (host, NULL, &hints, &result);
if (errcode != 0)
{
fprintf(stderr, "getaddrinfo: %d\n", errcode);
return -1;
}
res = result;
printf ("Host: %s\n", host);
while (res)
{
inet_ntop (res->ai_family, res->ai_addr->sa_data, addrstr, 100);
switch (res->ai_family)
{
case AF_INET:
ptr = &((struct sockaddr_in *) res->ai_addr)->sin_addr;
break;
case AF_INET6:
ptr = &((struct sockaddr_in6 *) res->ai_addr)->sin6_addr;
break;
}
inet_ntop (res->ai_family, ptr, addrstr, 100);
printf ("IPv%d address: %s (%s)\n", res->ai_family == PF_INET6 ? 6 : 4,
addrstr, res->ai_canonname);
res = res->ai_next;
}
freeaddrinfo(result);
return 0;
}
int main (void)
{
char inbuf[256];
int len;
do {
bzero(inbuf, 256);
printf("Type domain name:\n");
fgets(inbuf, 256, stdin);
len = strlen(inbuf);
inbuf[len-1] = '\0';
if(strlen(inbuf) > 0)
lookup_host (inbuf);
else
return EXIT_SUCCESS;
} while(1);
}
The result
# ./getaddrinfo
Type domain name:
google.com
getaddrinfo: -11
I figured it out. In my case, there were not libraries about nss in my embedded system. After put them, it works.
