30 /*! @header DNS Service Discovery
32 * @discussion This section describes the functions, callbacks, and data structures
33 * that make up the DNS Service Discovery API.
35 * The DNS Service Discovery API is part of Bonjour, Apple's implementation
36 * of zero-configuration networking (ZEROCONF).
38 * Bonjour allows you to register a network service, such as a
39 * printer or file server, so that it can be found by name or browsed
40 * for by service type and domain. Using Bonjour, applications can
41 * discover what services are available on the network, along with
42 * all the information -- such as name, IP address, and port --
43 * necessary to access a particular service.
45 * In effect, Bonjour combines the functions of a local DNS server and
46 * AppleTalk. Bonjour allows applications to provide user-friendly printer
47 * and server browsing, among other things, over standard IP networks.
48 * This behavior is a result of combining protocols such as multicast and
49 * DNS to add new functionality to the network (such as multicast DNS).
51 * Bonjour gives applications easy access to services over local IP
52 * networks without requiring the service or the application to support
53 * an AppleTalk or a Netbeui stack, and without requiring a DNS server
54 * for the local network.
58 /* _DNS_SD_H contains the mDNSResponder version number for this header file, formatted as follows:
59 * Major part of the build number * 10000 +
60 * minor part of the build number * 100
61 * For example, Mac OS X 10.4.9 has mDNSResponder-108.4, which would be represented as
62 * version 1080400. This allows C code to do simple greater-than and less-than comparisons:
63 * e.g. an application that requires the DNSServiceGetProperty() call (new in mDNSResponder-126) can check:
65 * #if _DNS_SD_H+0 >= 1260000
66 * ... some C code that calls DNSServiceGetProperty() ...
69 * The version defined in this header file symbol allows for compile-time
70 * checking, so that C code building with earlier versions of the header file
71 * can avoid compile errors trying to use functions that aren't even defined
72 * in those earlier versions. Similar checks may also be performed at run-time:
73 * => weak linking -- to avoid link failures if run with an earlier
74 * version of the library that's missing some desired symbol, or
75 * => DNSServiceGetProperty(DaemonVersion) -- to verify whether the running daemon
76 * ("system service" on Windows) meets some required minimum functionality level.

144 /*! @enum General flags
145 * Most DNS-SD API functions and callbacks include a DNSServiceFlags parameter.
146 * As a general rule, any given bit in the 32-bit flags field has a specific fixed meaning,
147 * regardless of the function or callback being used. For any given function or callback,
148 * typically only a subset of the possible flags are meaningful, and all others should be zero.
149 * The discussion section for each API call describes which flags are valid for that call
150 * and callback. In some cases, for a particular call, it may be that no flags are currently
151 * defined, in which case the DNSServiceFlags parameter exists purely to allow future expansion.
152 * In all cases, developers should expect that in future releases, it is possible that new flag
153 * values will be defined, and write code with this in mind. For example, code that tests
154 * if (flags == kDNSServiceFlagsAdd) ...
155 * will fail if, in a future release, another bit in the 32-bit flags field is also set.
156 * The reliable way to test whether a particular bit is set is not with an equality test,
157 * but with a bitwise mask:
158 * if (flags & kDNSServiceFlagsAdd) ...

169 * Applications should wait until until MoreComing is not set, and then

227 * concluding that the record is no longer valid and then removing it. This flag should
228 * be used with caution because if a service browsing PTR record is indeed still valid
229 * on the network, forcing its removal will result in a user-interface flap -- the

238 * (e.g. because a VPN tunnel is subsequently established) then that positive
239 * result will still be returned to the client.
240 * Similarly, if a query results in a CNAME record, then in addition to following
241 * the CNAME referral, the intermediate CNAME result is also returned to the client.
242 * When this flag is not set, NXDomain errors are not returned, and CNAME records

256 kDNSServiceFlagsShareConnection
= 0x4000,
257 /* For efficiency, clients that perform many concurrent operations may want to use a
258 * single Unix Domain Socket connection with the background daemon, instead of having a
259 * separate connection for each independent operation. To use this mode, clients first
260 * call DNSServiceCreateConnection(&MainRef) to initialize the main DNSServiceRef.
261 * For each subsequent operation that is to share that same connection, the client copies
262 * the MainRef, and then passes the address of that copy, setting the ShareConnection flag
263 * to tell the library that this DNSServiceRef is not a typical uninitialized DNSServiceRef;
264 * it's a copy of an existing DNSServiceRef whose connection information should be reused.
268 * DNSServiceErrorType error;
269 * DNSServiceRef MainRef;
270 * error = DNSServiceCreateConnection(&MainRef);
272 * DNSServiceRef BrowseRef = MainRef; // Important: COPY the primary DNSServiceRef first...
273 * error = DNSServiceBrowse(&BrowseRef, kDNSServiceFlagsShareConnection, ...); // then use the copy
276 * DNSServiceRefDeallocate(BrowseRef); // Terminate the browse operation
277 * DNSServiceRefDeallocate(MainRef); // Terminate the shared connection
281 * 1. Collective kDNSServiceFlagsMoreComing flag
282 * When callbacks are invoked using a shared DNSServiceRef, the
283 * kDNSServiceFlagsMoreComing flag applies collectively to *all* active
284 * operations sharing the same parent DNSServiceRef. If the MoreComing flag is
285 * set it means that there are more results queued on this parent DNSServiceRef,
286 * but not necessarily more results for this particular callback function.
287 * The implication of this for client programmers is that when a callback
288 * is invoked with the MoreComing flag set, the code should update its
289 * internal data structures with the new result, and set a variable indicating
290 * that its UI needs to be updated. Then, later when a callback is eventually
291 * invoked with the MoreComing flag not set, the code should update *all*
292 * stale UI elements related to that shared parent DNSServiceRef that need
293 * updating, not just the UI elements related to the particular callback
294 * that happened to be the last one to be invoked.
296 * 2. Canceling operations and kDNSServiceFlagsMoreComing
297 * Whenever you cancel any operation for which you had deferred UI updates
298 * waiting because of a kDNSServiceFlagsMoreComing flag, you should perform
299 * those deferred UI updates. This is because, after cancelling the operation,
300 * you can no longer wait for a callback *without* MoreComing set, to tell
301 * you do perform your deferred UI updates (the operation has been canceled,
302 * so there will be no more callbacks). An implication of the collective
303 * kDNSServiceFlagsMoreComing flag for shared connections is that this
304 * guideline applies more broadly -- any time you cancel an operation on
305 * a shared connection, you should perform all deferred UI updates for all
306 * operations sharing that connection. This is because the MoreComing flag
307 * might have been referring to events coming for the operation you canceled,
308 * which will now not be coming because the operation has been canceled.
310 * 3. Only share DNSServiceRef's created with DNSServiceCreateConnection
311 * Calling DNSServiceCreateConnection(&ref) creates a special shareable DNSServiceRef.
312 * DNSServiceRef's created by other calls like DNSServiceBrowse() or DNSServiceResolve()
313 * cannot be shared by copying them and using kDNSServiceFlagsShareConnection.
315 * 4. Don't Double-Deallocate
316 * Calling DNSServiceRefDeallocate(ref) for a particular operation's DNSServiceRef terminates
317 * just that operation. Calling DNSServiceRefDeallocate(ref) for the main shared DNSServiceRef
318 * (the parent DNSServiceRef, originally created by DNSServiceCreateConnection(&ref))
319 * automatically terminates the shared connection and all operations that were still using it.
320 * After doing this, DO NOT then attempt to deallocate any remaining subordinate DNSServiceRef's.
321 * The memory used by those subordinate DNSServiceRef's has already been freed, so any attempt
322 * to do a DNSServiceRefDeallocate (or any other operation) on them will result in accesses
323 * to freed memory, leading to crashes or other equally undesirable results.
326 * The dns_sd.h API does not presuppose any particular threading model, and consequently
327 * does no locking of its own (which would require linking some specific threading library).
328 * If client code calls API routines on the same DNSServiceRef concurrently
329 * from multiple threads, it is the client's responsibility to use a mutext
330 * lock or take similar appropriate precautions to serialize those calls.

495 * the APIs expect the strings to be properly escaped, using the conventional DNS escaping rules:
497 * '\\' represents a single literal '\' in the name
498 * '\.' represents a single literal '.' in the name
499 * '\ddd', where ddd is a three-digit decimal value from 000 to 255,
500 * represents a single literal byte with that value.
501 * A bare unescaped '.' is a label separator, marking a boundary between domain and subdomain.
503 * The exceptions, that do not use escaping, are the routines where the full
504 * DNS name of a resource is broken, for convenience, into servicename/regtype/domain.
505 * In these routines, the "servicename" is NOT escaped. It does not need to be, since
506 * it is, by definition, just a single literal string. Any characters in that string
507 * represent exactly what they are. The "regtype" portion is, technically speaking,
508 * escaped, but since legal regtypes are only allowed to contain letters, digits,
509 * and hyphens, there is nothing to escape, so the issue is moot. The "domain"
510 * portion is also escaped, though most domains in use on the public Internet
511 * today, like regtypes, don't contain any characters that need to be escaped.
512 * As DNS-SD becomes more popular, rich-text domains for service discovery will
513 * become common, so software should be written to cope with domains with escaping.
515 * The servicename may be up to 63 bytes of UTF-8 text (not counting the C-String
516 * terminating NULL at the end). The regtype is of the form _service._tcp or
517 * _service._udp, where the "service" part is 1-14 characters, which may be
518 * letters, digits, or hyphens. The domain part of the three-part name may be
519 * any legal domain, providing that the resulting servicename+regtype+domain
520 * name does not exceed 256 bytes.
522 * For most software, these issues are transparent. When browsing, the discovered
523 * servicenames should simply be displayed as-is. When resolving, the discovered
524 * servicename/regtype/domain are simply passed unchanged to DNSServiceResolve().
525 * When a DNSServiceResolve() succeeds, the returned fullname is already in
526 * the correct format to pass to standard system DNS APIs such as res_query().
527 * For converting from servicename/regtype/domain to a single properly-escaped
528 * full DNS name, the helper function DNSServiceConstructFullName() is provided.
530 * The following (highly contrived) example illustrates the escaping process.
531 * Suppose you have an service called "Dr. Smith\Dr. Johnson", of type "_ftp._tcp"
532 * in subdomain "4th. Floor" of subdomain "Building 2" of domain "apple.com."
533 * The full (escaped) DNS name of this service's SRV record would be:
534 * Dr\.\032Smith\\Dr\.\032Johnson._ftp._tcp.4th\.\032Floor.Building\0322.apple.com.
539 * Constants for specifying an interface index
541 * Specific interface indexes are identified via a 32-bit unsigned integer returned
542 * by the if_nametoindex() family of calls.
544 * If the client passes 0 for interface index, that means "do the right thing",
545 * which (at present) means, "if the name is in an mDNS local multicast domain
546 * (e.g. 'local.', '254.169.in-addr.arpa.', '{8,9,A,B}.E.F.ip6.arpa.') then multicast
547 * on all applicable interfaces, otherwise send via unicast to the appropriate
548 * DNS server." Normally, most clients will use 0 for interface index to
549 * automatically get the default sensible behaviour.
551 * If the client passes a positive interface index, then for multicast names that
552 * indicates to do the operation only on that one interface. For unicast names the
553 * interface index is ignored unless kDNSServiceFlagsForceMulticast is also set.
555 * If the client passes kDNSServiceInterfaceIndexLocalOnly when registering
556 * a service, then that service will be found *only* by other local clients
557 * on the same machine that are browsing using kDNSServiceInterfaceIndexLocalOnly
558 * or kDNSServiceInterfaceIndexAny.
559 * If a client has a 'private' service, accessible only to other processes
560 * running on the same machine, this allows the client to advertise that service
561 * in a way such that it does not inadvertently appear in service lists on
562 * all the other machines on the network.
564 * If the client passes kDNSServiceInterfaceIndexLocalOnly when browsing
565 * then it will find *all* records registered on that same local machine.
566 * Clients explicitly wishing to discover *only* LocalOnly services can
567 * accomplish this by inspecting the interfaceIndex of each service reported
568 * to their DNSServiceBrowseReply() callback function, and discarding those
569 * where the interface index is not kDNSServiceInterfaceIndexLocalOnly.

643 /* DNSServiceRefSockFD()
645 * Access underlying Unix domain socket for an initialized DNSServiceRef.
646 * The DNS Service Discovery implementation uses this socket to communicate between the client and

648 * Access to the socket is provided so that it can be used as a kqueue event source, a CFRunLoop
649 * event source, in a select() loop, etc. When the underlying event management subsystem (kqueue/
650 * select/CFRunLoop etc.) indicates to the client that data is available for reading on the
651 * socket, the client should call DNSServiceProcessResult(), which will extract the daemon's
652 * reply from the socket, and pass it to the appropriate application callback. By using a run
653 * loop or select(), results from the daemon can be processed asynchronously. Alternatively,
654 * a client can choose to fork a thread and have it loop calling "DNSServiceProcessResult(ref);"
655 * If DNSServiceProcessResult() is called when no data is available for reading on the socket, it
656 * will block until data does become available, and then process the data and return to the caller.
657 * When data arrives on the socket, the client is responsible for calling DNSServiceProcessResult(ref)
658 * in a timely fashion -- if the client allows a large backlog of data to build up the daemon
659 * may terminate the connection.

924 * via DNSServiceRegisterRecord().
926 * port: The port, in network byte order, on which the service accepts connections.
927 * Pass 0 for a "placeholder" service (i.e. a service that will not be discovered
928 * by browsing, but will cause a name conflict if another client tries to
929 * register that same name). Most clients will not use placeholder services.
931 * txtLen: The length of the txtRecord, in bytes. Must be zero if the txtRecord is NULL.
933 * txtRecord: The TXT record rdata. A non-NULL txtRecord MUST be a properly formatted DNS
934 * TXT record, i.e. <length byte> <data> <length byte> <data> ...
935 * Passing NULL for the txtRecord is allowed as a synonym for txtLen=1, txtRecord="",
936 * i.e. it creates a TXT record of length one containing a single empty string.
937 * RFC 1035 doesn't allow a TXT record to contain *zero* strings, so a single empty
938 * string is the smallest legal DNS TXT record.
939 * As with the other parameters, the DNSServiceRegister call copies the txtRecord
940 * data; e.g. if you allocated the storage for the txtRecord parameter with malloc()
941 * then you can safely free that memory right after the DNSServiceRegister call returns.

1103 * DNSServiceBrowseReply() Parameters:
1105 * sdRef: The DNSServiceRef initialized by DNSServiceBrowse().
1107 * flags: Possible values are kDNSServiceFlagsMoreComing and kDNSServiceFlagsAdd.
1108 * See flag definitions for details.
1110 * interfaceIndex: The interface on which the service is advertised. This index should
1111 * be passed to DNSServiceResolve() when resolving the service.
1113 * errorCode: Will be kDNSServiceErr_NoError (0) on success, otherwise will
1114 * indicate the failure that occurred. Other parameters are undefined if
1115 * the errorCode is nonzero.
1117 * serviceName: The discovered service name. This name should be displayed to the user,
1118 * and stored for subsequent use in the DNSServiceResolve() call.
1120 * regtype: The service type, which is usually (but not always) the same as was passed
1121 * to DNSServiceBrowse(). One case where the discovered service type may
1122 * not be the same as the requested service type is when using subtypes:
1123 * The client may want to browse for only those ftp servers that allow
1124 * anonymous connections. The client will pass the string "_ftp._tcp,_anon"
1125 * to DNSServiceBrowse(), but the type of the service that's discovered
1126 * is simply "_ftp._tcp". The regtype for each discovered service instance
1127 * should be stored along with the name, so that it can be passed to
1128 * DNSServiceResolve() when the service is later resolved.
1130 * domain: The domain of the discovered service instance. This may or may not be the
1131 * same as the domain that was passed to DNSServiceBrowse(). The domain for each
1132 * discovered service instance should be stored along with the name, so that
1133 * it can be passed to DNSServiceResolve() when the service is later resolved.
1135 * context: The context pointer that was passed to the callout.

1157 * terminates it by passing this DNSServiceRef to DNSServiceRefDeallocate().
1159 * flags: Currently ignored, reserved for future use.
1161 * interfaceIndex: If non-zero, specifies the interface on which to browse for services
1162 * (the index for a given interface is determined via the if_nametoindex()
1163 * family of calls.) Most applications will pass 0 to browse on all available
1164 * interfaces. See "Constants for specifying an interface index" for more details.
1166 * regtype: The service type being browsed for followed by the protocol, separated by a
1167 * dot (e.g. "_ftp._tcp"). The transport protocol must be "_tcp" or "_udp".
1168 * A client may optionally specify a single subtype to perform filtered browsing:
1169 * e.g. browsing for "_primarytype._tcp,_subtype" will discover only those
1170 * instances of "_primarytype._tcp" that were registered specifying "_subtype"
1171 * in their list of registered subtypes.
1173 * domain: If non-NULL, specifies the domain on which to browse for services.
1174 * Most applications will not specify a domain, instead browsing on the
1175 * default domain(s).
1177 * callBack: The function to be called when an instance of the service being browsed for
1178 * is found, or if the call asynchronously fails.
1180 * context: An application context pointer which is passed to the callback function
1183 * return value: Returns kDNSServiceErr_NoError on success (any subsequent, asynchronous

1203 * Resolve a service name discovered via DNSServiceBrowse() to a target host name, port number, and
1206 * Note: Applications should NOT use DNSServiceResolve() solely for txt record monitoring - use
1207 * DNSServiceQueryRecord() instead, as it is more efficient for this task.
1209 * Note: When the desired results have been returned, the client MUST terminate the resolve by calling
1210 * DNSServiceRefDeallocate().
1212 * Note: DNSServiceResolve() behaves correctly for typical services that have a single SRV record
1213 * and a single TXT record. To resolve non-standard services with multiple SRV or TXT records,
1214 * DNSServiceQueryRecord() should be used.
1216 * DNSServiceResolveReply Callback Parameters:
1218 * sdRef: The DNSServiceRef initialized by DNSServiceResolve().
1220 * flags: Possible values: kDNSServiceFlagsMoreComing
1222 * interfaceIndex: The interface on which the service was resolved.
1224 * errorCode: Will be kDNSServiceErr_NoError (0) on success, otherwise will
1225 * indicate the failure that occurred. Other parameters are undefined if
1226 * the errorCode is nonzero.
1228 * fullname: The full service domain name, in the form <servicename>.<protocol>.<domain>.
1229 * (This name is escaped following standard DNS rules, making it suitable for
1230 * passing to standard system DNS APIs such as res_query(), or to the
1231 * special-purpose functions included in this API that take fullname parameters.
1232 * See "Notes on DNS Name Escaping" earlier in this file for more details.)
1234 * hosttarget: The target hostname of the machine providing the service. This name can
1235 * be passed to functions like gethostbyname() to identify the host's IP address.
1237 * port: The port, in network byte order, on which connections are accepted for this service.
1239 * txtLen: The length of the txt record, in bytes.
1241 * txtRecord: The service's primary txt record, in standard txt record format.
1243 * context: The context pointer that was passed to the callout.
1245 * NOTE: In earlier versions of this header file, the txtRecord parameter was declared "const char *"
1246 * This is incorrect, since it contains length bytes which are values in the range 0 to 255, not -128 to +127.
1247 * Depending on your compiler settings, this change may cause signed/unsigned mismatch warnings.
1248 * These should be fixed by updating your own callback function definition to match the corrected
1249 * function signature using "const unsigned char *txtRecord". Making this change may also fix inadvertent
1250 * bugs in your callback function, where it could have incorrectly interpreted a length byte with value 250
1251 * as being -6 instead, with various bad consequences ranging from incorrect operation to software crashes.
1252 * If you need to maintain portable code that will compile cleanly with both the old and new versions of
1253 * this header file, you should update your callback function definition to use the correct unsigned value,
1254 * and then in the place where you pass your callback function to DNSServiceResolve(), use a cast to eliminate
1255 * the compiler warning, e.g.:
1256 * DNSServiceResolve(sd, flags, index, name, regtype, domain, (DNSServiceResolveReply)MyCallback, context);
1257 * This will ensure that your code compiles cleanly without warnings (and more importantly, works correctly)
1258 * with both the old header and with the new corrected version.

1738 * to an external port on the NAT.
1740 * The port mapping will be renewed indefinitely until the client process exits, or
1741 * explicitly terminates the port mapping request by calling DNSServiceRefDeallocate().
1742 * The client callback will be invoked, informing the client of the NAT gateway's
1743 * external IP address and the external port that has been allocated for this client.
1744 * The client should then record this external IP address and port using whatever
1745 * directory service mechanism it is using to enable peers to connect to it.
1746 * (Clients advertising services using Wide-Area DNS-SD DO NOT need to use this API
1747 * -- when a client calls DNSServiceRegister() NAT mappings are automatically created
1748 * and the external IP address and port for the service are recorded in the global DNS.
1749 * Only clients using some directory mechanism other than Wide-Area DNS-SD need to use
1750 * this API to explicitly map their own ports.)
1752 * It's possible that the client callback could be called multiple times, for example
1753 * if the NAT gateway's IP address changes, or if a configuration change results in a
1754 * different external port being mapped for this client. Over the lifetime of any long-lived
1755 * port mapping, the client should be prepared to handle these notifications of changes
1756 * in the environment, and should update its recorded address and/or port as appropriate.
1758 * NOTE: There are two unusual aspects of how the DNSServiceNATPortMappingCreate API works,
1759 * which were intentionally designed to help simplify client code:
1761 * 1. It's not an error to request a NAT mapping when the machine is not behind a NAT gateway.
1762 * In other NAT mapping APIs, if you request a NAT mapping and the machine is not behind a NAT
1763 * gateway, then the API returns an error code -- it can't get you a NAT mapping if there's no
1764 * NAT gateway. The DNSServiceNATPortMappingCreate API takes a different view. Working out
1765 * whether or not you need a NAT mapping can be tricky and non-obvious, particularly on
1766 * a machine with multiple active network interfaces. Rather than make every client recreate
1767 * this logic for deciding whether a NAT mapping is required, the PortMapping API does that
1768 * work for you. If the client calls the PortMapping API when the machine already has a
1769 * routable public IP address, then instead of complaining about it and giving an error,
1770 * the PortMapping API just invokes your callback, giving the machine's public address
1771 * and your own port number. This means you don't need to write code to work out whether
1772 * your client needs to call the PortMapping API -- just call it anyway, and if it wasn't
1773 * necessary, no harm is done:
1775 * - If the machine already has a routable public IP address, then your callback
1776 * will just be invoked giving your own address and port.
1777 * - If a NAT mapping is required and obtained, then your callback will be invoked
1778 * giving you the external address and port.
1779 * - If a NAT mapping is required but not obtained from the local NAT gateway,
1780 * or the machine has no network connectivity, then your callback will be
1781 * invoked giving zero address and port.
1783 * 2. In other NAT mapping APIs, if a laptop computer is put to sleep and woken up on a new
1784 * network, it's the client's job to notice this, and work out whether a NAT mapping
1785 * is required on the new network, and make a new NAT mapping request if necessary.
1786 * The DNSServiceNATPortMappingCreate API does this for you, automatically.
1787 * The client just needs to make one call to the PortMapping API, and its callback will
1788 * be invoked any time the mapping state changes. This property complements point (1) above.
1789 * If the client didn't make a NAT mapping request just because it determined that one was
1790 * not required at that particular moment in time, the client would then have to monitor
1791 * for network state changes to determine if a NAT port mapping later became necessary.
1792 * By unconditionally making a NAT mapping request, even when a NAT mapping not to be
1793 * necessary, the PortMapping API will then begin monitoring network state changes on behalf of
1794 * the client, and if a NAT mapping later becomes necessary, it will automatically create a NAT
1795 * mapping and inform the client with a new callback giving the new address and port information.

1875 * more promptly, but consumes system resources and network bandwidth with
1876 * frequent renewal packets to keep the mapping from expiring.
1877 * Requesting a long TTL is more efficient on the network, but in the event of the
1878 * client vanishing, stale NAT port mappings will not be garbage-collected as quickly.
1879 * Most clients should pass 0 to use a system-wide default value.

1883 * context: An application context pointer which is passed to the callback function
