ats_getbestaddrinfo is already implemented. It's in lib/ts/ink_inet.cc. It's a
bit hard to use, I need to improve it :-) but you can see examples if you look
at the commits for those issues. The issue is that you can get back both an
IPv4 and an IPv6 address. I've filed TS-1070 to remind me to
I have fixed TS-1166, TS-1167, TS-1168, TS-1017 all of which eliminate uses of
gethostbyname. Looks to me like only clustering, web management,
CoreAPIShared.cc in mgmt, and some test code are still problematic. Except for
clustering those look like using ats_getbestaddrinfo() would work (since
Search for the line:
The lookup functions above all have one in common: they are not reentrant
and therefore unusable in multi-threaded applications. Therefore provides
the GNU C library a new set of functions which can be used in this context.
Perhaps it operates differently if _POSIX_SOURCE is
I would presume that applies to the functions documented on the page, not
getaddrinfo which is mentioned only in passing. This is reenforced by
getaddrinfo having its own documentation page.
Just for amusement value, here's a couple of bug reports of gethostbyaddr_r()
crashing under load -
Great. Then it seems like it is time to make the move into the 21st
century.

Hi all,
In an effort to get ATS to build on OpenBSD, I noticed that we're using
gethostbyname_r and gethostbyaddr_r (see ink_inet.cc), according to the
manpage both of these APIs are obsolete and getaddrinfo should be used
(which is reentrant by default), I only noticed this because OpenBSD 5.0

Mostly reasonable, just a few things to do better:
1) Do not use the ink_ prefix, we're moving to ats_.
2) It's not clear to me we need to wrap getaddrinfo at all unless you can
simplify the api (e.g., ats_getbestaddrinfo).
3) Looking at the call sites which still use ink_gethostbyname, I
I filed TS-1166, TS-1167, TS-1168, to track some of these places. TS-990 tracks
the Cluster issue, and TS-1017 tracks it in logging. I am working on the
logging. I will try to get through these others although others are welcome to
step up :-).
