patacongo removed a comment on issue #370: net: socket: Introduce net_clear_sinzero() URL: https://github.com/apache/incubator-nuttx/pull/370#issuecomment-590670787 The OS must **NEVER** modify an input sockaddr type (of an variety). The socketaddr type is usually passed as a FAR const struct sockaddr * and the OS is not permitted to modify read-only user values. The input sockaddr structures must **always** be modify by the application logic. The input sockaddr structures may, very possibly, reside in read-only memory. Returned sockaddr structures are not const and, of course, can be modified by the OS. The const attribute is a "contract" that does not permit modification of the input value by the OS.
