.TH dns_ip6_qualify 3
.SH NAME
dns_ip6_qualify \- find IP addresses for host names
.SH SYNTAX
.B #include <dns.h>

int \fBdns_ip6_qualify\fP(&\fIout\fR,&\fIfqdn\fR,&\fIudn\fR);

stralloc \fIout\fR = {0};
.br
stralloc \fIfqdn\fR = {0};
.br
stralloc \fIudn\fR;

.SH DESCRIPTION
.B dns_ip6_qualify
feeds the name \fIudn\fR through qualification and looks up 16-byte IPv6
addresses for the result. It puts the fully qualified domain name into
\fIfqdn\fR, puts the concatenation of the IP addresses into \fIout\fR,
and returns 0. If the domain does not exist in DNS, or has no IP
addresses, \fIout\fR will be empty.

Like \fBdns_ip6\fR, dns_ip6_qualify will also look up IPv4 addresses and
append them in IPv4-mapped IPv6 representation.

If \fBdns_ip6_qualify\fR has trouble with the qualification, has trouble
with DNS, or runs out of memory, it returns -1, setting \fIerrno\fR
appropriately.  It may or may not change \fIout\fR and \fIfqdn\fR.
