[Sipdht-devel] libc6/debian version

[<gg...@ti...>]

Hi,

Is it possible to run sipdht tools with libc6 2.3.2 (debian stable)?  It
works fine with libc6 2.3.6 (debian sid) but it seems that it doesn=92t =
in
debian stable.

After some tests I think the problem is the getaddrinfo API that =
doesn=92t
support ai_sockettype =3D ai_protocol =3D 0 in the hints structure that
receives.  (I=92ve seen it changed in libc6 around 2.3.3 version:
http://sources.redhat.com/cgi-bin/cvsweb.cgi/libc/sysdeps/posix/getaddrin=
fo.
c.diff?r1=3D1.82
<http://sources.redhat.com/cgi-bin/cvsweb.cgi/libc/sysdeps/posix/getaddri=
nfo
.c.diff?r1=3D1.82&r2=3D1.83&cvsroot=3Dglibc&f=3Dh> =
&r2=3D1.83&cvsroot=3Dglibc&f=3Dh)

This issue produces an access violation exception in sipdht tools =
because
getaddrinfo returns res =3D NULL (i.e. sipdhtw.c Ln 118).  If you =
initialize
ai_sockettype in the hint structure, for example with ai_sockettype =3D
SOCK_DGRAM, it works.

I don=92t know if it should be solved or assumed as prerequisite, but =
anyway
this information could be useful for other people in the future.

Taking advantage of this mail, I=92ve seen two minor typos in the =
website
http://sipdht.sourceforge.net/doc.html:

sipdhtq -> sipdhtw

-s10 -> -s 10

Best regards.
