+Imstallation of fehQlibs man pages
+==================================
+
+a) It is expected that the fehQlibs are installed at /usr/local.
+b) Check your manpath settings: $ manpath
+c) You might want to compress the manpages: gzip *.3
+d) If available, the compressed or raw man pages can be simply copied to
+ - /usr/local/man/man3 or
+ - /usr/local/share/man/man3
+ 'root' is required to complete this step.
+
+That's it!

+.SH DESCRIPTION
+.B buffer.h
+describes a generic buffer interface that can be used for
+read and write buffering. Buffers must be initialized with
+\fBbuffer_init\fR.
+
+A buffer can only be used for reading or writing at the same time, not
+both.
+
+Unlike
+.BR stdio ,
+these write buffers are not flushed automatically at
+program termination; you must manually call \fBbuffer_flush\fR,
+\fBbuffer_putflush\fR, or \fBbuffer_putsflush\fR.
+
+.B buffer_init
+prepares \fIb\fR to store a string in \fIy\fR[0], \fIy\fR[1], ...,
+\fIy\fR[\fIylen\fR-1]. Initially the string is empty.
+
+.B buffer_init
+also prepares \fIb\fR to use the read/write operation specified by
+\fIop\fR and \fIfd\fR.
+
+You can use
+
+ buffer \fIb\fR = BUFFER_INIT(\fIop\fR,\fIfd\fR,\fIy\fR,\fIylen\fR);
+
+to initialize \fIb\fR statically if \fIop\fR, \fIfd\fR, \fIy\fR, and \fIylen\fR
+are compile-time constants.
+
+You can call
+.B buffer_init
+again at any time. Note that this discards the currently buffered string.
+
+.B buffer_get
+copies data to \fIx\fR[0], \fIx\fR[1], ...,
+\fIx\fR[\fIlen\fR-1] from the beginning of a string stored in
+preallocated space; removes these \fIlen\fR bytes from the string; and
+returns \fIlen\fR.
+
+If, however, the string has fewer than \fIlen\fR (but more than 0)
+bytes,
+.I buffer_get
+copies only that many bytes, and returns that number.
+
+If the string is empty,
+.B buffer_get
+first uses a \fBread operation\fR to
+feed data into the string. The \fBread operation\fR may indicate end of
+input.
+
+The preallocated space and the \fBread operation\fR are specified by
+\fIb\fR. You must initialize \fBb\fR using
+.B buffer_init
+before calling
+.B buffer_get
+(or use the pre-initialized \fIbuffer_0\fR).
+
+.B buffer_put
+writes \fIlen\fR bytes from \fIx\fR to \fIb\fR.
+
+The difference to
+.B buffer_putalign
+is that, when there isn't enough space
+for new data,
+.B buffer_put
+calls
+.B buffer_flush
+before copying any data, while
+.B buffer_putalign
+fills all available space with data before calling
+.B buffer_flush.
+
+.B buffer_copy
+copies one buffer to other one.
+The output buffer needs to have at least the
+preallocated size of the input buffer.
+.B buffer_unixread
+and
+.B buffer_unixwrite
+perform the same operation like standard Unix
+.B read
+or
+.BR write.
+.SH MACROS
+Apart from this basic usage, some helpful macro
+definitions are provided:
+.B BUFFER_INIT(op,fd,buf,len)
+uses
+.I op
+function to operate (read/write) on
+.I buf
+with
+.I len
+to file descriptor
+.IR fd .
+.B buffer_GETC(buf,c)
+returns the upmost position of character
+.I c
+within buffer
+.I buf
+or 0.
+.B buffer_PUTC(buf,c)
+adds character
+.I c
+to buffer
+.IR buf.
+.SH EXAMPLE
+ #include <buffer.h>
+ #include <open.h>
+
+ char buf[BUFFER_INSIZE]; // defined in buffer.h
+ int fd = open_read("/etc/services");
+ buffer input;
+
+ if (fd >= 0) {
+ char x;
+ buffer_init(&input,read,fd,buf,sizeof buf);
+ while (buffer_get(&input,&x,1) == 1) {
+ buffer_put(buffer_1,&x,1);
+ if (x == '\\n') break;
+ }
+ buffer_flush(buffer_1);
+ }
+.SH "RETURN CODES"
+.B buffer_put
+and
+.B buffer_get
+return
+.I 0
+if everything was fine,
+.IR -1 ,
+on error (setting \fIerrno\fR).
+.B buffer_copy
+returns
+.IR -2 ,
+if the input buffer can't be read, and
+.IR -3 ,
+if the data can't successfully copied
+to the output buffer. On success
+.B buffer_copy
+returns
+.IR 0 .

+.SH SYNOPSIS
+int \fBconstmap_init\fP(struct constmap \fI*cm\fR,char \fI*string\fR,int \fIlen\fR,int \fIflagcolon\fR);
+.br
+int \fBconstmap_init_char\fP(struct constmap \fI*cm\fR,char \fI*string\fR,int \fIlen\fR,int \fIflagcolon\fR,char \fIflagchar\fR);

+void \fBconstmap_free\fP(\fIstruct constmap *cm\fR);
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+Reading a file perhaps with
+.I control_readfile(&cmap,"path/filename",0)
+.B constmap_init
+can be used to convert its content into a constant time search map:
+.IR constmap .
+Here, you can specify whether the entries in
+.I constmap
+are plain or key/value structured setting
+.I flagcolon
+to one and assuming the delimiter equals to a colon:
+.IR : .
+If the delimiter needs to be particulary tailored, use
+.BR constmap_init_char .
+
+Given the search
+.I string
+and providing its length
+.I len
+(without the trailing \\0)
+.B constmap
+will now retrieve the information in constant time
+returning a pointer to the search result or
+.IR 0 .
+
+The datastructure can be freed by means of
+.BR constmap_free .
+.SH EXAMPLE
+#include <constmap.h>
+
+ struct constmap cmap;
+ stralloc result = {0};
+ char *info;
+ char *search;
+
+ if (control_readfile(&cmap,"control/conf",0))

+.SH DESCRIPTION
+.B dns_ip[4|6]_packet
+is a low-level component of
+.BR dns_ip[4|6] ,
+designed to support asynchronous DNS lookups.
+It reads a DNS packet of length \fIlen\fR from
+\fIbuf\fR, extracts the IP(4|6) addresses from the answer section of the packet and
+puts the addresses into \fIout\fR.
+
+.B dns_ip[4|6]
+looks up 4/16-byte IPv6 addresses for the fully qualified domain name of
+\fIfqdn\fR. It puts the concatenation of the IPv[4|6] addresses into \fIout\fR and
+returns the number of received answers for \fIfqdn\fR or \fI0\fR if none are replied.
+If the domain does not exist in DNS, or has no IP addresses,
+\fIout\fR will be empty. More generally, if \fIfqdn\fR is considered by
+.B dns_ip4
+to be a dotted-decimal IPv4 address, it is provissioned as \fIout\fR
+without checking the DNS while returning \fI1\fR.
+Brackets may enclose the dotted-decimal IP address; they are ignored.
+
+.B dns_name[4|6]_packet
+is a low-level component of
+.B dns_name[4|6]
+designed to support asynchronous DNS lookups.
+It reads a DNS packet of length \fIlen\fR from \fIbuf\fR,
+
+.B dns_name[4|6]_domain
+is a low-level component of
+.BR dns_name[4|6] .
+It converts an IP address such as
+.I 1.2.3.4
+or
+.I 4321:0:1:2:3:4:567:89ab
+into a domain name such as
+.I 4.3.2.1.in-addr.arpa
+or
+.I b.a.9.8.7.6.5.0.4.0.0.0.3.0.0.0.2.0.0.0.1.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.1.2.3.4.ip6.arpa
+and places the packet-encoded domain name into \fIq\fR.
+.I q
+is zero terminated.
+.I q
+must have space for DNS_NAME[4|6]_DOMAIN bytes.
+
+.B dns_mx_packet
+is a low-level component of
+.BR dns_mx ,
+designed to support asynchronous DNS lookups.
+It reads a DNS packet of length \fIlen\fR from \fIbuf\fR,
+extracts the MX records from the answer section of the packet, puts the
+result into \fIout\fR, and returns the number of replies received
+or \fI-1\fR the same way as
+.BR dns_mx .
+
+.B dns_mx
+looks up MX records for the fully-qualified domain name in
+\fIfqdn\fR. It puts the MX records into \fIout\fR and returns the number of
+received records or \fI0\fR.
+Each MX record is a two-byte MX distance (big endian) followed by a
+\\0-terminated dot-encoded domain name. If the domain does not exist in
+DNS, or has no MX records, \fIout\fR will be empty.
+
+.B dns_txt_packet
+is a low-level component of
+.BR dns_txt ,
+designed to support
+asynchronous DNS lookups. It reads a DNS packet of length \fIlen\fR from \fIbuf\fR,
+extracts the TXT records from the answer section of the packet, puts the
+result into \fIout\fR, and returns the number of replies
+or \fI-1\fR the same way as \fBdns_txt\fR.
+
+.B dns_txt
+looks up TXT records for the fully-qualified domain name in
+\fIfqdn\fR. It puts the concatenation of the TXT records into \fIout\fR
+and returns the number of replies received.
+If the domain does not exist in DNS, or has no TXT records, \fIout\fR will be empty.
+
+.B dns_cname_packet
+is a low-level component of
+.BR dns_cname ,
+designed to support
+asynchronous DNS lookups. It reads a DNS packet of length \fIlen\fR from \fIbuf\fR,
+extracts the TXT records from the answer section of the packet, puts the
+result into \fIout\fR, and returns the number of replies received or
+\fI-1\fR the same way as \fBdns_cname\fR.
+
+.B dns_cname
+looks up the canonical name for a given
+.IR fqdn .
+
+.B dns_ip[4|6]_qualify
+feeds the name \fIudn\fR through qualification and looks up their
+4-byte/16-byte IP addresses. It puts the fully qualified domain name
+into \fIfqdn\fR and the concatenation of the IP addresses into \fIout\fR,
+while returning the number of encountered IP addresses.
+.B dns_ip[4|6]_qualify
+evaluates the environment variables
+.I $DNSREWRITEFILE
+pointing to
+.I /etc/dnsrewrite
+and
+.I $LOCALDOMAIN
+and finally reading
+.I /etc/resolv.conf
+to build the
+.I Full Qualified Domain Name (FQDN)
+using the
+.I domain suffix
+for
+.IR hostname .
+.B dns_ip_qualify
+returns
+.I out
+as
+.I IP[4|6]
+and
+.IR FQDN .
+If the domain does not exist in DNS, or has no IP addresses,
+\fIout\fR will be empty and the return code is \fI0\fR.
+
+In case
+.B dns_ip[4|6]_qualify
+is fed with an
+.I IP[4|6]
+addresses instead of domain names,
+it recognizes those not to be subject of
+.IR qualification .
+The particular names
+.IR localhost ,
+.I ip4-loopback
+and
+.I ip6-loopback
+are treated locally and mapped to
+the respective
+.I IP[4|6]
+addresses (and vice versa)
+without facilitating a DNS lookup.
+.SH "INPUT"
+For the high-level routines
+.BR dns_ip[4|6] ,
+.BR dns_ip_qualify[4|6] ,
+.BR dns_name[4|6] ,
+.BR dns_mx ,
+.BR dns_name ,
+.BR dns_txt
+and
+.BR dns_cname
+the provided input variable
+.I stralloc \*\fqdn
+needs to be un-terminated, thus the given
+string length is identitical to the number of
+.I fqdn
+characters.
+.SH "OUTPUT"
+The returned IP addresses are given as character (byte) strings
+with 4 or 16 bytes:
+.B dns_ip4
+and
+.B dns_ip4_qualifiy
+return 4 byte IPv4 addresses, where as
+.B dns_ip6
+and
+.B dns_ip
+as well as
+.B dns_ip6_qualify
+and
+.B dns_ip_qualify
+return sets of 16 byte IPv6 addresses, where
+the potential IPv4 addresses are given in their
+IPv6-mapped-IPv4 representation.
+.SH "RETURN CODES"
+The dns routines
+.BR dns_cname* ,
+.BR dns_ip* ,
+.BR dns_mx* ,
+.B dns_name*
+and
+.BR dns_txt*
+return the number of answers received, which may be
+.I 0
+and potentially
+.I -1
+in case of a memory failure. The full set of return codes:
+
+.EX
+Value | Macro | Explaination
+------+----------+-------------------------------------
+ n>0 | | n = number of answers reeceived
+ 0 | DNS_NXD | either NXDOMAIN or NODATA
+ -1 | DNS_MEM | out of memory (fatal)
+ -2 | DNS_ERR | parsing errors
+ -3 | DNS_COM | socket communicaton errror; SERVFAIL
+ -4 | DNS_INT | internal error
+ -5 | DNS_SOFT | DNS_ERR or DNS_COM
+ -6 | DNS_HARD | DNS loop problem (CNAME)
+.EE
+
+.I errno
+is set appropriately.
+In case of a failure, the respective output variables like
+\fIout\fR and \fIfqdn\fR may or may not change.
+Since a received reply may be empty, always check the length of the
+received output additionally.

+.SH DESCRIPTION
+.B dns_resolvconfip
+reads the name servers defined in
+.I /etc/resolv.conf
+and uses
+.B ip6_ifscan
+to fetch their IPv4/IPv6 addresses together with the scope for the LLU address.
+Up to
+.I 32
+name servers can be specified.
+
+Apart from the system-wide
+.I /etc/resolv.conf
+the IP addresses of name servers can preferrably be provided by means of the
+environment variable
+.I $DNSCACHEIP
+for each user application. The variable
+.I $DNSCACHEIP
+may include up to 32 name server IP addresses separated by white spaces:
+
+.EX
+ DNSCACHEIP="10.0.1.53 fe80::1%lo0 ::1"
+.EE
+
+.B dns_transmit_start

+use the list of name server IP's for a recursive or none-recursive
+query
+.I q
+of type
+.I qtype
+starting from IP address
+.I localip
+for which the
+.I struct dns_transmit
+provides the required book keeping information.
+.B dns_transmit_start6
+additionally is able to evaluate the given
+.I scope_id
+as information for the local interface in order
+to bind to the remote IPv6 LLU addresses. Usually
+.I scope_id
+defaults to
+.IR 0 .
+
+.B dns_sortip4
+and
+.B dns_sortip6
+randomize the list of name server IPs upon call and as result the first address
+is used to facilitate the name lookup.
+.IR FQDN .
+.SH "RETURN CODES"
+Different from the original djb implemtation, the
+following return code scheme is used:
+.TP 2
+rc > 0
+A 'positive' answer is given, thus results returned.
+.TP 2
+rc = 0
+A 'neutral' answer was provided, thus typically the
+operation succeeded, but without replies.
+.TP 2
+rc < 0
+An operational error was encountered.
+.TP 0
+Potentially, this needs to be treated specifically:
+.TP 2
+DNS_INT (rc = -4)
+Internal DNS operational error; ie. resources were not
+available.
+.TP 2
+DNS_COM (rc = -3)
+DNS communication error.
+.TP 2
+DNS_ERR (rc = -2)
+Parsing errors and others.
+.TP 2
+DNS_MEM (rc = -1)
+Memory error occured.
+.TP 0
+A 'safe' usage of return codes thus checks not only the presence
+of a return code, but rather additionally its sign.
+Negative return codes point to errors.

+The second piece is
+.IR cont ,
+a pointer to

+
+int \fBiopause\fP(iopause_fd *\fIx\fR,unsigned int \fIlen\fR,struct taia *\fIdeadline\f$,struct taia *\fIstamp\fR);
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+.B iopause
+checks for file descriptor readability or writeability as specified
+by \fIx\fR[0].fd, \fIx\fR[0].events, \fIx\fR[1].fd, \fIx\fR[1].events, ..., \fIx\fR[\fIlen\fR-1].fd,
+\fIx\fR[\fIlen\fR-1].events. If \fIx\fR[i].events includes the bit IOPAUSE_READ,
+.B iopause
+checks for readability of the descriptor \fIx\fR[i].fd;
+if \fIx\fR[i].events includes the bit IOPAUSE_WRITE,
+.B iopause
+checks for writability of the descriptor
+\fIx\fR[i].fd; other bits in \fIx\fR[i].events have undefined effects.
+
+.B iopause
+sets the IOPAUSE_READ bit in \fIx\fR[i].revents if it finds that \fIx\fR[i].fd
+is readabled and it sets the IOPAUSE_WRITE bit in \fIx\fR[i].revents if it finds
+that \fIx\fR[i].fd is writable.
+Beware that readability and writeability may be destroyed at any moment
+by other processes with access to the same file \fIx\fR[i].fd refers to.
+
+If there is no readability or writeability to report,
+.B iopause
+waits until \fIdeadline\fR for something to happen.
+.B iopause
+will return before \fIdeadline\fR if a
+descriptor becomes readable or writeable, or an interrupting signal
+arrives, or some system-defined amount of time passes.
+.B iopause
+sets
+.I revents
+in any case.
+
+You must put a current timestamp into \fIstamp\fR before calling
+.BR iopause .
+In case the the current timestamp is older than the previous one (ie. due to daylight-saving)
+negative values are omitted.
+
+.SH "IMPLEMENTATION NOTES"
+The current implementation of
+.B iopause
+uses the \fBpoll\fR interface if that is available.
+On some systems, \fBpoll\fR needs to dynamically allocate kernel
+memory. In case not enough memory is available,
+.B iopause
+will return immediately and will report (often incorrectly) that no descriptors are
+readable or writeable.
+
+If the \fBpoll\fR interface is not available,
+.B iopause
+uses the \fBselect\fR function. This function
+cannot see descriptor numbers past a system-defined limit, typically 256
+or 1024;
+.I iopause
+will artificially pretend that those descriptors are never readable or writeable.
+
+Future implementations of
+.B iopause
+may work around these problems on some
+systems, at the expense of chewing up all available CPU time.
+
+Both \fBpoll\fR and \fBselect\fR use relative timeouts rather than absolute deadlines.
+Some kernels round the timeout down to a multiple of 10 milliseconds; this
+can burn quite a bit of CPU time as the deadline approaches.
+.B iopause
+compensates for this by adding 20 milliseconds to the timeout.
+In case the current timestamp is older than the previous one (ie. due to daylight-saving)
+the timeout is set to 20 milliseconds.
+.SH "RETURN CODES"
+.B iopause
+reads and deploys the return codes of the
+.I poll
+and
+.I select
+call. Only positive return values shall be considered by the calling routines for a succcessful
+invocation.

+\fBlogmsg\fR prints error, warning, or info/logging messages to stderr

+\fIwho\fR is the name of the program, \fIecode\fR is an error code,
+\fIclass\fR determines the behavior upon call and \fImsg\fR is the logging message.
+Read "error.h" to learn more about related constants.
+.SH ECODE
+\fIecode\fR is the error code and subject to be displayed in the log file and
+potentially used upon exit if the \fIclass\fR equals \fBERROR\fR, \fBFATAL\fR, or \fBDROP\fR.
+
+To avoid conflicts with syscall error codes, appplication defined error codes should be negative.
+The values \fI-15\fR, \fI-100\fR and \fI-111\fR are reserved for backward compatibility.
+.SH CLASS
+The \fIclass\fr parameter indicates how the application handles exceptions and displays the
+log message.
+.TP 4
+o
+\fBLOG\fR, \fBINFO\fR, \fBALERT\fR, \fBWARN\fR - display message and continue operation

+.RE
+
+\fBINFO\fR, \fBALERT\fR, \fBWARN\fR, \fBDROP\fR, \fBUSAGE\fR, and \fBFATAL\fR as well
+as \fBERROR\fR display the respective class string like \fIwarning:\fR in the log message,
+while \fBLOG\fR shows the log message only.
+
+The class \fBFATAL\fR should be used for system error codes only, rather \fBERROR\fR
+and \fBWARN\fR shall be set in conjunction with an application error/warning.
+.SH MESSAGE
+If the custom message \fImsg\fR is given, it will be printed additionally.
+.SH FORMAT
+The log message format consists of the tokens
+\fIwho\fR: (\fIecode\fR) \fImsg\fR : \fImsg\fR.
+.I ecode
+is displayed only for classes \fBFATAL\fR, \fBERROR\fR, or \fBDROP\fR.
+.I msg
+is the system's explanation according to the variable
+.I errno
+if provided.
+.SH NOTES
+.I logmsg.c
+uses
+.I errstr.c
+routines.
+Error codes and classes are defined in
+.I error.h
+and included by
+.IR logmsg.h .
+.SH "EXIT CODE"
+\fBlogmsg\fR exits \fIecode\fR for classes \fBERROR\fR, \fBFATAL\fR, \fBSYNTAX\fR,
+and \fBUSAGE\fR terminating the application.
+.SH HISTORY
+Dan Bernstein used sets of \fIstrerr_dieY*()\fR and \fIstrerr_warnY()\fR messages
+which explicitely determine the message and behavior class.
+Other classes were occasionally defined on demand, such als \fIusage()\fR.
+
+Kai Peter introduced the \fIerrmsg\fR facility in his \fBqlibs\fR
+including a \fBsyslog\fR compliant \fIseverity\fR as second parameter.
+.SH EXAMPLES
+The macro definitions uses \fBw\fR for the calling program,
+\fBe\fR for error code, \fBc\fR for class, and \fBm\fR for message.
+
+ #include "logmsg.h"

+ err_sys_plus(WHO,-111,"additional message");
+
+ err_tmp("",-100);

+
+log_anon() is like log_who() but doesn't print the caller name.

+and environment
+.IR e .
+.B pathexec_run
+looks for

+.I $PATH
+is a colon-separated list of directories

+.B pathexec_run
+tries

+is nonzero. The name
+.I s
+must not contain

+.SH "RETURN CODES"
+Normally

+does not return, because the process has been replaced.
+However, if all the

+This list is subject to change.
+
+Normally

+.SH DESCRIPTION
+.B socket_connect4
+attempts to make a connection from TCP or UDP socket \fIs\fR to
+TCP port \fIport\fR on IP address \fIip\fR.
+You can call
+.B socket_connect4
+without calling
+.BR socket_bind4 .
+This has the effect as first calling
+.B socket_bind4
+with IP address 0.0.0.0 and port 0.
+
+.B socket_connect6
+attempts to make a connection from TCP or UDP socket \fIs\fR to
+TCP port \fIport\fR on IP address \fIip\fR and \fIscope_id\fR.
+The meaning of \fIscope_id\fR is dependent on the implementation and
+IPv6 IP. For link-local IPv6 addresses it specifies the outgoing
+interface index. From a given interface name (e.g. "eth0")
+it's index can be retrieved with
+.BR socket_getifidx .
+\fIscope_id\fR should normally be set to 0.
+You can call
+.B socket_connect6
+without calling
+.BR socket_bind6 .
+This has the effect as first calling
+.B socket_bind6
+with IP address :: and port 0.
+
+.B socket_connect
+attempts to make a connection from TCP socket \fIs\fR to
+TCP port \fIport\fR on IP address \fIip\fR and \fIscope_id\fR
+calling
+.BR socket_connect6 .
+If however, \fIip\fR is an IPv4 or IPv4-mapped IPv6 address
+.B socket_connect4
+is called instead.
+
+Once a socket is connected, you can use the read and write
+system calls to transmit data.
+
+.B socket_connected
+can be used to verify, whether a background connection failed or
+succeeded, thus \fIs\fR became writable or not.
+.SH EXAMPLE
+ #include <socket_if.h>
+
+ int \fIs\fR;
+ char \fIlocalip\fR[16];
+ char \fIremoteip\fR[16];
+ uint16 \fIp\fR = 0;

+ socket_bind(s,localip,p,0);
+ socket_connect(s,remoteip,p,0);
+
+ if (socket_connected(s) != 1)
+ err_tmp(""111,fatal,"unable to setup TCP connection: ");
+.SH "RETURN CODES"
+.BR socket_connect4 ,
+.BR socket_connect6
+and
+.BR socket_connect
+may return
+.IR 0 ,
+to indicate that the connection succeeded (and succeeded immediately,
+if the socket is non-blocking)

+that the socket is non-blocking
+.IR -1 ,
+setting
+.I errno
+to something else, to indicate that the connection
+failed (and failed immediately, if the socket is non-blocking).
+
+.B socket_connected

+.SH DESCRIPTION
+.B socket_getifidx
+returns the \fIscope_id\fR of an interface named as
+.I ifname
+typically ''eth0''.
+
+.B socket_getifname
+retrieves from the operating system's assigned
+.I scope_id
+the interface name
+.IR ifname .
+.SH INTERFACE_NAME VERSUS SCOPE_ID
+For IPv6 LLU addresses an additional
+.I ifname
+(interface name) has to be provided accompanying the IPv6 address:
+.IR fe80::1%eth0 .
+The operating systems rather uses
+.I scope_id
+as index for
+.IR ifname .
+
+For global IPv6 and ULA addresses
+.I ifname
+can be set to
+.IR 0 .
+Since IPv4 addresses on any interface are always unique,
+simply use
+.I 0
+for all cases.
+.SH BACKGROUND
+Qlib's socket routines provide an easy API to setup
+TCP or UDP connections over IPv4 or IPv6 networks. Together with
+Qlib's IP address parsing capabilities, a set of high-level
+socket routines allow a common IPv4/IPv6 handling.
+.SH SOCKET FILES
+.TP 5
+.B socket_bind.c
+bind to or reuse the local IPv4/IPv6 address and port
+for a socket connection
+.TP 5
+.B socket_connect.c
+attempts to setup a TCP or UDP client connection
+.TP 5
+.B socket_info.c
+get local/remote IPv4/IPv6 address of socket
+.TP 5
+.B socket_recv.c
+set up a receiving IPv4/IPv6 connection
+.TP 5
+.B socket_send.c
+send UDP datagram over a IPv4 or IPv6 connection
+.TP 5
+.B socket_setup.c
+listen to and accept an IPv4/IPv6 TCP socket connection
+.TP 5
+.B socket_tcp.c
+create a non-blocking TCP stream socket
+.TP 5
+.B socket_udp.c
+create a non-blocking UDP datagram socket
+.SH USAGE
+Most of the above files include their IPv4 and
+IPv6 counterparts together with a combined usage
+requiring in addition a
+.I scope_id
+or simply
+.IR 0 .
+IPv4 addresses are usually converted upon reading to
+IPv4-mapped IPv6 addresses using Qlib's IP address
+parsing functions.
+IPv4 and IPv6 socket calls - if required -
+need to be distinguished
+by the calling routines testing
+
+.EX
+ ip6_isv4mapped(ip)
+.EE
+
+Otherwise, the unified IPv6/IPv4 versions will be used.

+.SH DESCRIPTION
+\fBstr_copy\fR copies \fIsrc\fR into \fIdst\fR up to the first occurance of \\0 while including it.
+It returns the number of bytes written.
+If \fIdst\fR is smaller than \fIsrc\fR, \fBstr_copy\fR fills up \fIdst\fR
+to its allocated size and returns the number of bytes it would have be written.
+\fBstr_copyb\fR copies \fIlen\fR bytes from \fIsrc\fR into \fIdst\fR.
+
+\fBstr_chr\fR and \fBstr_rchr\fR searches for a single character in a string
+(from left-to-right or from right-to-left) and returns the position of
+the \fIfirst\fR occurrance of \fIc\fR or the length \fIlen\fR of \fIs\fR.
+
+\fBstr_len\fR determines the length of a string. It returns the position
+of the first occurance of \\0 in \fIs\fR.
+
+\fBstr_diff\fR, \fBstr_diffn\fR, and \fBstr_equal\fR compare two strings.
+\fBstr_diff\fR and \fBstr_diffn\fR returns negative, zero or positive, depending
+whether the string \fIs\fR[0], \fIs\fR[1], ..., \fIs\fR[n]=='\\0' is
+ASCII lexicographically smaller than, equal to, or greater than the string
+\fIt\fR[0], \fIt\fR[1], ..., \fIt\fR[m-1]=='\\0'. If the strings are different,
+both functions do not read bytes past the first difference.
+\fBstr_diffn\fR considers the strings equal if the first \fIn\fR characters match.
+
+\fBstr_equal\fR returns 1, if \fIs\fR and \fIt\fR match up to and including the
+first occurance of \\0 or returns 0 otherwise. It is the opposite of \fBstr_diff\fR.
+
+\fBstr_start\fR compares the two strings from the begining.
+It returns 1 if \fIt\fR is a prefix of \fIs\fR or 0 otherwise.
+
+\fB*str_append\fR appends a single byte \fIs\fR to \fIout\fR given \fIout\fR
+is allocated with enough space.
+.SH "NOTE"
+For the \fBstr_copy*\fR and \fB*str_append\fP commands \fIdst\fR
+has to have a preallocated space.
+Otherwise the result may be unexpected.

+.SH DESCRIPTION
+A
+.B stralloc
+variable holds a string in dynamically allocated space.
+String length is limited only by memory.
+String contents are unrestricted.
+
+The
+.B stralloc
+structure has three components:
+.I sa\fB.s
+is a pointer to the string, or 0 if it is not allocated;
+.I sa\fB.len
+is the number of bytes in the string, if it is allocated;
+.I sa\fB.a
+is the number of bytes allocated for the string, if it is allocated.
+A
+.B stralloc
+variable should be initialized to {0},
+meaning unallocated.
+
+.B stralloc_ready
+makes sure that
+.I sa
+has enough space allocated for
+.I len
+characters.
+It allocates extra space if necessary.
+
+.B stralloc_readyplus
+makes sure that
+.I sa
+has enough space allocated for
+.I len
+characters more than its current length.
+If
+.I sa
+is unallocated,
+.B stralloc_readyplus
+is the same as
+.BR stralloc_ready .
+
+.B stralloc_copy
+copies
+.I sa2
+to
+.IR sa ,
+allocating space if necessary.
+Here
+.I sa2
+is an allocated
+.B stralloc
+variable.
+
+.B stralloc_copys
+copies a 0-terminated string,
+.IR buf ,
+to
+.IR sa ,
+without the 0.
+
+.B stralloc_copyb
+copies
+.I len
+characters from
+.I buf
+to
+.IR sa .
+
+.B stralloc_cat
+appends
+.I sa2
+to
+.IR sa ,
+allocating space if necessary.
+If
+.I sa
+is unallocated,
+.B stralloc_cat
+is the same as
+.BR stralloc_copy .
+
+.B stralloc_cats
+and
+.B stralloc_catb
+are analogous to
+.B stralloc_copys
+and
+.BR stralloc_copyb .
+
+.B stralloc_append
+adds a single character,
+.IR *buf ,
+to
+.IR sa ,
+allocating space if necessary.
+
+.B stralloc_0
+adds a single 0 character
+to
+.IR sa .
+
+.B stralloc_starts
+returns 1 if the 0-terminated string
+.IR buf ,
+without the 0,
+is a prefix of
+.IR sa .
+.SH "ERROR HANDLING"
+If a
+.B stralloc
+routine runs out of memory,
+it leaves
+.I sa
+alone and returns 0,
+setting
+.B errno
+appropriately.
+On success it returns 1;
+this guarantees that
+.I sa
+is allocated.

+.B taia_add
+adds \fIa\fR to \fIb\fR and writes the result to \fIt\fR.
+The inputs and output may overlap.
+
+.B taia_addsec
+adds \fIsecs\fR seconds to \fIs\fR and writes the result to \fIt\fR.
+The inputs and output may overlap.
+
+.B taia_approx
+returns a double-precision approximation of \fIt\fR.
+The result of
+.B taia_approx
+is always nonnegative.
+
+.B taia_frac
+returns a double-precision approximation to the fraction part
+of \fIt\fR. The result of
+.B taia_frac
+is always nonnegative.
+
+.B taia_less
+returns 1 if \fIa\fR is less than \fIb\fR, 0 otherwise.
+
+.B taia_now
+puts the current time into \fIt\fR. More precisely:
+.B tai_now
+puts into \fIt\fR its best guess as to the TAI64NA label
+for the 1-attosecond interval that contains the current time.
+
+This implementation of taia_now assumes that the
+.I time_t
+returned from the time function represents the number of TAI seconds since 1970-01-01
+00:00:10 TAI. This matches the convention used by the Olson tz library
+in ``right'' mode.
+
+Beware that many clocks are not set accurately, and even the best
+scientific clocks are nowhere near 1-attosecond accuracy; however, an
+inaccurate clock may still produce reasonably accurate time differences.
+
+.B taia_pack
+converts a TAI64NA label from internal format in \fIt\fR to external
+TAI64NA format in \fIbuf\fR.
+
+.B taia_sub
+subtracts \fIb\fR from \fIa\fR and writes the result to \fIt\fR.
+The inputs and output may overlap.
+
+.B taia_tai
+places into \fIsec\fR the integer part of \fIt\fR. If \fIt\fR
+contains a TAI64NA label then \fIsec\fR will contain the corresponding
+TAI64 label.
+
+.B taia_uint
+converts \fIsecs\fR into a struct taia (setting the fractional part to zero).
+
+.B taia_unpack
+converts a TAI64NA label from external TAI64NA format in
+\fIbuf\fR to internal format in \fIt\fR.

+
+DESCRIPTION
+ logmsg prints error, warning, or info/logging messages to stderr and
+ potentially terminates the calling program, depending on the class
+ given. who is the name of the program, ecode is an error code, class
+ determines the behavior upon call and msg is the logging message. Read
+ "error.h" to learn more about related constants.
+
+ECODE
+ ecode is the error code and subject to be displayed in the log file and
+ potentially used upon exit if the class equals ERROR, FATAL, or DROP.
+
+ To avoid conflicts with syscall error codes, appplication defined error
+ codes should be negative. The values -15, -100 and -111 are reserved
+ for backward compatibility.
+
+CLASS
+ The class parameter indicates how the application handles exceptions
+ and displays the log message.
+
+ o LOG, INFO, ALERT, WARN - display message and continue operation
+
+ o DROP - display warning message and continue while returning to the
+ calling program
+
+ o USAGE, SYNTAX, FATAL, ERROR - display error message and exit appli‐
+ cation with error code
+
+ INFO, ALERT, WARN, DROP, USAGE, and FATAL as well as ERROR display the
+ respective class string like warning: in the log message, while LOG
+ shows the log message only.
+
+ The class FATAL should be used for system error codes only, rather ER‐
+ ROR and WARN shall be set in conjunction with an application er‐
+ ror/warning.
+
+MESSAGE
+ If the custom message msg is given, it will be printed additionally.
+
+ Dan Bernstein used sets of strerr_dieY*() and strerr_warnY() messages
+ which explicitely determine the message and behavior class. Other
+ classes were occasionally defined on demand, such als usage().
+
+ Kai Peter introduced the errmsg facility in his qlibs including a sys‐
+ log compliant severity as second parameter.
+
+EXAMPLES
+ The macro definitions uses w for the calling program, e for error
+ code, c for class, and m for message.
+
+ #include "logmsg.h"
+ #define WHO "my_prog"
+
+ err_sys(WHO,errno);
+ err_sys_plus(WHO,-111,"additional message");
+
+ err_tmp("",-100);
+ err_tmp_plus("",errno,"additional message");
+
+ log_who(WHO,"message");
+
+ log_anon() is like log_who() but doesn't print the caller name.
+
+ An user defined message s can be build from multiple arguments by using
+ the B (build) macro:
+
+ err_sys_plus((errno),B("unable to run: ",*argv));
