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.

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

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

238 * concluding that the record is no longer valid and then removing it. This flag should
239 * be used with caution because if a service browsing PTR record is indeed still valid
240 * on the network, forcing its removal will result in a user-interface flap -- the
241 * discovered service instance will disappear, and then re-appear moments later.
244 kDNSServiceFlagsReturnIntermediates
= 0x1000,
245 /* Flag for returning intermediate results.

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

267 kDNSServiceFlagsShareConnection
= 0x4000,
268 /* For efficiency, clients that perform many concurrent operations may want to use a
269 * single Unix Domain Socket connection with the background daemon, instead of having a
270 * separate connection for each independent operation. To use this mode, clients first
271 * call DNSServiceCreateConnection(&MainRef) to initialize the main DNSServiceRef.
272 * For each subsequent operation that is to share that same connection, the client copies
273 * the MainRef, and then passes the address of that copy, setting the ShareConnection flag
274 * to tell the library that this DNSServiceRef is not a typical uninitialized DNSServiceRef;
275 * it's a copy of an existing DNSServiceRef whose connection information should be reused.
279 * DNSServiceErrorType error;
280 * DNSServiceRef MainRef;
281 * error = DNSServiceCreateConnection(&MainRef);
283 * DNSServiceRef BrowseRef = MainRef; // Important: COPY the primary DNSServiceRef first...
284 * error = DNSServiceBrowse(&BrowseRef, kDNSServiceFlagsShareConnection, ...); // then use the copy
287 * DNSServiceRefDeallocate(BrowseRef); // Terminate the browse operation
288 * DNSServiceRefDeallocate(MainRef); // Terminate the shared connection
292 * 1. Collective kDNSServiceFlagsMoreComing flag
293 * When callbacks are invoked using a shared DNSServiceRef, the
294 * kDNSServiceFlagsMoreComing flag applies collectively to *all* active
295 * operations sharing the same parent DNSServiceRef. If the MoreComing flag is
296 * set it means that there are more results queued on this parent DNSServiceRef,
297 * but not necessarily more results for this particular callback function.
298 * The implication of this for client programmers is that when a callback
299 * is invoked with the MoreComing flag set, the code should update its
300 * internal data structures with the new result, and set a variable indicating
301 * that its UI needs to be updated. Then, later when a callback is eventually
302 * invoked with the MoreComing flag not set, the code should update *all*
303 * stale UI elements related to that shared parent DNSServiceRef that need
304 * updating, not just the UI elements related to the particular callback
305 * that happened to be the last one to be invoked.
307 * 2. Canceling operations and kDNSServiceFlagsMoreComing
308 * Whenever you cancel any operation for which you had deferred UI updates
309 * waiting because of a kDNSServiceFlagsMoreComing flag, you should perform
310 * those deferred UI updates. This is because, after cancelling the operation,
311 * you can no longer wait for a callback *without* MoreComing set, to tell
312 * you do perform your deferred UI updates (the operation has been canceled,
313 * so there will be no more callbacks). An implication of the collective
314 * kDNSServiceFlagsMoreComing flag for shared connections is that this
315 * guideline applies more broadly -- any time you cancel an operation on
316 * a shared connection, you should perform all deferred UI updates for all
317 * operations sharing that connection. This is because the MoreComing flag
318 * might have been referring to events coming for the operation you canceled,
319 * which will now not be coming because the operation has been canceled.
321 * 3. Only share DNSServiceRef's created with DNSServiceCreateConnection
322 * Calling DNSServiceCreateConnection(&ref) creates a special shareable DNSServiceRef.
323 * DNSServiceRef's created by other calls like DNSServiceBrowse() or DNSServiceResolve()
324 * cannot be shared by copying them and using kDNSServiceFlagsShareConnection.
326 * 4. Don't Double-Deallocate
327 * Calling DNSServiceRefDeallocate(ref) for a particular operation's DNSServiceRef terminates
328 * just that operation. Calling DNSServiceRefDeallocate(ref) for the main shared DNSServiceRef
329 * (the parent DNSServiceRef, originally created by DNSServiceCreateConnection(&ref))
330 * automatically terminates the shared connection and all operations that were still using it.
331 * After doing this, DO NOT then attempt to deallocate any remaining subordinate DNSServiceRef's.
332 * The memory used by those subordinate DNSServiceRef's has already been freed, so any attempt
333 * to do a DNSServiceRefDeallocate (or any other operation) on them will result in accesses
334 * to freed memory, leading to crashes or other equally undesirable results.
337 * The dns_sd.h API does not presuppose any particular threading model, and consequently
338 * does no locking of its own (which would require linking some specific threading library).
339 * If client code calls API routines on the same DNSServiceRef concurrently
340 * from multiple threads, it is the client's responsibility to use a mutext
341 * lock or take similar appropriate precautions to serialize those calls.
344 kDNSServiceFlagsSuppressUnusable
= 0x8000
346 * This flag is meaningful only in DNSServiceQueryRecord which suppresses unusable queries on the
347 * wire. If "hostname" is a wide-area unicast DNS hostname (i.e. not a ".local." name)
348 * but this host has no routable IPv6 address, then the call will not try to look up IPv6 addresses
349 * for "hostname", since any addresses it found would be unlikely to be of any use anyway. Similarly,
350 * if this host has no routable IPv4 address, the call will not try to look up IPv4 addresses for

508 * Notes on DNS Name Escaping
510 * "Why is kDNSServiceMaxDomainName 1009, when the maximum legal domain name is 256 bytes?"
512 * All strings used in the DNS-SD APIs are UTF-8 strings. Apart from the exceptions noted below,
513 * the APIs expect the strings to be properly escaped, using the conventional DNS escaping rules:
515 * '\\' represents a single literal '\' in the name
516 * '\.' represents a single literal '.' in the name
517 * '\ddd', where ddd is a three-digit decimal value from 000 to 255,
518 * represents a single literal byte with that value.
519 * A bare unescaped '.' is a label separator, marking a boundary between domain and subdomain.
521 * The exceptions, that do not use escaping, are the routines where the full
522 * DNS name of a resource is broken, for convenience, into servicename/regtype/domain.
523 * In these routines, the "servicename" is NOT escaped. It does not need to be, since
524 * it is, by definition, just a single literal string. Any characters in that string
525 * represent exactly what they are. The "regtype" portion is, technically speaking,
526 * escaped, but since legal regtypes are only allowed to contain letters, digits,
527 * and hyphens, there is nothing to escape, so the issue is moot. The "domain"
528 * portion is also escaped, though most domains in use on the public Internet
529 * today, like regtypes, don't contain any characters that need to be escaped.
530 * As DNS-SD becomes more popular, rich-text domains for service discovery will
531 * become common, so software should be written to cope with domains with escaping.
533 * The servicename may be up to 63 bytes of UTF-8 text (not counting the C-String
534 * terminating NULL at the end). The regtype is of the form _service._tcp or
535 * _service._udp, where the "service" part is 1-15 characters, which may be
536 * letters, digits, or hyphens. The domain part of the three-part name may be
537 * any legal domain, providing that the resulting servicename+regtype+domain
538 * name does not exceed 256 bytes.
540 * For most software, these issues are transparent. When browsing, the discovered
541 * servicenames should simply be displayed as-is. When resolving, the discovered
542 * servicename/regtype/domain are simply passed unchanged to DNSServiceResolve().
543 * When a DNSServiceResolve() succeeds, the returned fullname is already in
544 * the correct format to pass to standard system DNS APIs such as res_query().
545 * For converting from servicename/regtype/domain to a single properly-escaped
546 * full DNS name, the helper function DNSServiceConstructFullName() is provided.
548 * The following (highly contrived) example illustrates the escaping process.
549 * Suppose you have an service called "Dr. Smith\Dr. Johnson", of type "_ftp._tcp"
550 * in subdomain "4th. Floor" of subdomain "Building 2" of domain "apple.com."
551 * The full (escaped) DNS name of this service's SRV record would be:
552 * Dr\.\032Smith\\Dr\.\032Johnson._ftp._tcp.4th\.\032Floor.Building\0322.apple.com.
557 * Constants for specifying an interface index
559 * Specific interface indexes are identified via a 32-bit unsigned integer returned
560 * by the if_nametoindex() family of calls.
562 * If the client passes 0 for interface index, that means "do the right thing",
563 * which (at present) means, "if the name is in an mDNS local multicast domain
564 * (e.g. 'local.', '254.169.in-addr.arpa.', '{8,9,A,B}.E.F.ip6.arpa.') then multicast
565 * on all applicable interfaces, otherwise send via unicast to the appropriate
566 * DNS server." Normally, most clients will use 0 for interface index to
567 * automatically get the default sensible behaviour.
569 * If the client passes a positive interface index, then for multicast names that
570 * indicates to do the operation only on that one interface. For unicast names the
571 * interface index is ignored unless kDNSServiceFlagsForceMulticast is also set.
573 * If the client passes kDNSServiceInterfaceIndexLocalOnly when registering
574 * a service, then that service will be found *only* by other local clients
575 * on the same machine that are browsing using kDNSServiceInterfaceIndexLocalOnly
576 * or kDNSServiceInterfaceIndexAny.
577 * If a client has a 'private' service, accessible only to other processes
578 * running on the same machine, this allows the client to advertise that service
579 * in a way such that it does not inadvertently appear in service lists on
580 * all the other machines on the network.
582 * If the client passes kDNSServiceInterfaceIndexLocalOnly when browsing
583 * then it will find *all* records registered on that same local machine.
584 * Clients explicitly wishing to discover *only* LocalOnly services can
585 * accomplish this by inspecting the interfaceIndex of each service reported
586 * to their DNSServiceBrowseReply() callback function, and discarding those
587 * where the interface index is not kDNSServiceInterfaceIndexLocalOnly.
589 * kDNSServiceInterfaceIndexP2P is meaningful only in Browse, QueryRecord,
590 * and Resolve operations. It should not be used in other DNSService APIs.
592 * - If kDNSServiceInterfaceIndexP2P is passed to DNSServiceBrowse or
593 * DNSServiceQueryRecord, it restricts the operation to P2P.
595 * - If kDNSServiceInterfaceIndexP2P is passed to DNSServiceResolve, it is
596 * mapped internally to kDNSServiceInterfaceIndexAny, because resolving
597 * a P2P service may create and/or enable an interface whose index is not
598 * known a priori. The resolve callback will indicate the index of the
599 * interface via which the service can be accessed.
601 * If applications pass kDNSServiceInterfaceIndexAny to DNSServiceBrowse
602 * or DNSServiceQueryRecord, the operation will also include P2P. In this
603 * case, if a service instance or the record being queried is found over P2P,
604 * the resulting ADD event will indicate kDNSServiceInterfaceIndexP2P as the

682 * Access underlying Unix domain socket for an initialized DNSServiceRef.
683 * The DNS Service Discovery implementation uses this socket to communicate between the client and

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

921 * to a legal length, unless the NoAutoRename flag is set,
922 * in which case kDNSServiceErr_BadParam will be returned.
924 * regtype: The service type followed by the protocol, separated by a dot
925 * (e.g. "_ftp._tcp"). The service type must be an underscore, followed
926 * by 1-15 characters, which may be letters, digits, or hyphens.
927 * The transport protocol must be "_tcp" or "_udp". New service types
928 * should be registered at <http://www.dns-sd.org/ServiceTypes.html>.
930 * Additional subtypes of the primary service type (where a service
931 * type has defined subtypes) follow the primary service type in a
932 * comma-separated list, with no additional spaces, e.g.
933 * "_primarytype._tcp,_subtype1,_subtype2,_subtype3"
934 * Subtypes provide a mechanism for filtered browsing: A client browsing
935 * for "_primarytype._tcp" will discover all instances of this type;
936 * a client browsing for "_primarytype._tcp,_subtype2" will discover only
937 * those instances that were registered with "_subtype2" in their list of
938 * registered subtypes.
940 * The subtype mechanism can be illustrated with some examples using the
941 * dns-sd command-line tool:
943 * % dns-sd -R Simple _test._tcp "" 1001 &
944 * % dns-sd -R Better _test._tcp,HasFeatureA "" 1002 &

952 * Subtype labels may be up to 63 bytes long, and may contain any eight-
953 * bit byte values, including zero bytes. However, due to the nature of

957 * % dns-sd -R Test '_test._tcp,s\.one,s\,two,s\\three,s\000four' local 123
959 * domain: If non-NULL, specifies the domain on which to advertise the service.
960 * Most applications will not specify a domain, instead automatically
961 * registering in the default domain(s).
963 * host: If non-NULL, specifies the SRV target host name. Most applications
964 * will not specify a host, instead automatically using the machine's
965 * default host name(s). Note that specifying a non-NULL host does NOT
966 * create an address record for that host - the application is responsible
967 * for ensuring that the appropriate address record exists, or creating it
968 * via DNSServiceRegisterRecord().
970 * port: The port, in network byte order, on which the service accepts connections.
971 * Pass 0 for a "placeholder" service (i.e. a service that will not be discovered
972 * by browsing, but will cause a name conflict if another client tries to
973 * register that same name). Most clients will not use placeholder services.
975 * txtLen: The length of the txtRecord, in bytes. Must be zero if the txtRecord is NULL.
977 * txtRecord: The TXT record rdata. A non-NULL txtRecord MUST be a properly formatted DNS
978 * TXT record, i.e. <length byte> <data> <length byte> <data> ...
979 * Passing NULL for the txtRecord is allowed as a synonym for txtLen=1, txtRecord="",
980 * i.e. it creates a TXT record of length one containing a single empty string.
981 * RFC 1035 doesn't allow a TXT record to contain *zero* strings, so a single empty
982 * string is the smallest legal DNS TXT record.
983 * As with the other parameters, the DNSServiceRegister call copies the txtRecord
984 * data; e.g. if you allocated the storage for the txtRecord parameter with malloc()
985 * then you can safely free that memory right after the DNSServiceRegister call returns.
987 * callBack: The function to be called when the registration completes or asynchronously
988 * fails. The client MAY pass NULL for the callback - The client will NOT be notified
989 * of the default values picked on its behalf, and the client will NOT be notified of any
990 * asynchronous errors (e.g. out of memory errors, etc.) that may prevent the registration
991 * of the service. The client may NOT pass the NoAutoRename flag if the callback is NULL.
992 * The client may still deregister the service at any time via DNSServiceRefDeallocate().
994 * context: An application context pointer which is passed to the callback function

1272 * fullname: The full service domain name, in the form <servicename>.<protocol>.<domain>.
1273 * (This name is escaped following standard DNS rules, making it suitable for
1274 * passing to standard system DNS APIs such as res_query(), or to the
1275 * special-purpose functions included in this API that take fullname parameters.
1276 * See "Notes on DNS Name Escaping" earlier in this file for more details.)
1278 * hosttarget: The target hostname of the machine providing the service. This name can
1279 * be passed to functions like gethostbyname() to identify the host's IP address.
1281 * port: The port, in network byte order, on which connections are accepted for this service.
1283 * txtLen: The length of the txt record, in bytes.
1285 * txtRecord: The service's primary txt record, in standard txt record format.
1287 * context: The context pointer that was passed to the callout.
1289 * NOTE: In earlier versions of this header file, the txtRecord parameter was declared "const char *"
1290 * This is incorrect, since it contains length bytes which are values in the range 0 to 255, not -128 to +127.
1291 * Depending on your compiler settings, this change may cause signed/unsigned mismatch warnings.
1292 * These should be fixed by updating your own callback function definition to match the corrected
1293 * function signature using "const unsigned char *txtRecord". Making this change may also fix inadvertent
1294 * bugs in your callback function, where it could have incorrectly interpreted a length byte with value 250
1295 * as being -6 instead, with various bad consequences ranging from incorrect operation to software crashes.
1296 * If you need to maintain portable code that will compile cleanly with both the old and new versions of
1297 * this header file, you should update your callback function definition to use the correct unsigned value,
1298 * and then in the place where you pass your callback function to DNSServiceResolve(), use a cast to eliminate
1299 * the compiler warning, e.g.:
1300 * DNSServiceResolve(sd, flags, index, name, regtype, domain, (DNSServiceResolveReply)MyCallback, context);
1301 * This will ensure that your code compiles cleanly without warnings (and more importantly, works correctly)
1302 * with both the old header and with the new corrected version.

1774 /* DNSServiceNATPortMappingCreate
1776 * Request a port mapping in the NAT gateway, which maps a port on the local machine
1777 * to an external port on the NAT. The NAT should support either the NAT-PMP or the UPnP IGD
1778 * protocol for this API to create a successful mapping.
1780 * The port mapping will be renewed indefinitely until the client process exits, or
1781 * explicitly terminates the port mapping request by calling DNSServiceRefDeallocate().
1782 * The client callback will be invoked, informing the client of the NAT gateway's
1783 * external IP address and the external port that has been allocated for this client.
1784 * The client should then record this external IP address and port using whatever
1785 * directory service mechanism it is using to enable peers to connect to it.
1786 * (Clients advertising services using Wide-Area DNS-SD DO NOT need to use this API
1787 * -- when a client calls DNSServiceRegister() NAT mappings are automatically created
1788 * and the external IP address and port for the service are recorded in the global DNS.
1789 * Only clients using some directory mechanism other than Wide-Area DNS-SD need to use
1790 * this API to explicitly map their own ports.)
1792 * It's possible that the client callback could be called multiple times, for example
1793 * if the NAT gateway's IP address changes, or if a configuration change results in a
1794 * different external port being mapped for this client. Over the lifetime of any long-lived
1795 * port mapping, the client should be prepared to handle these notifications of changes
1796 * in the environment, and should update its recorded address and/or port as appropriate.
1798 * NOTE: There are two unusual aspects of how the DNSServiceNATPortMappingCreate API works,
1799 * which were intentionally designed to help simplify client code:
1801 * 1. It's not an error to request a NAT mapping when the machine is not behind a NAT gateway.
1802 * In other NAT mapping APIs, if you request a NAT mapping and the machine is not behind a NAT
1803 * gateway, then the API returns an error code -- it can't get you a NAT mapping if there's no
1804 * NAT gateway. The DNSServiceNATPortMappingCreate API takes a different view. Working out
1805 * whether or not you need a NAT mapping can be tricky and non-obvious, particularly on
1806 * a machine with multiple active network interfaces. Rather than make every client recreate
1807 * this logic for deciding whether a NAT mapping is required, the PortMapping API does that
1808 * work for you. If the client calls the PortMapping API when the machine already has a
1809 * routable public IP address, then instead of complaining about it and giving an error,
1810 * the PortMapping API just invokes your callback, giving the machine's public address
1811 * and your own port number. This means you don't need to write code to work out whether
1812 * your client needs to call the PortMapping API -- just call it anyway, and if it wasn't
1813 * necessary, no harm is done:
1815 * - If the machine already has a routable public IP address, then your callback
1816 * will just be invoked giving your own address and port.
1817 * - If a NAT mapping is required and obtained, then your callback will be invoked
1818 * giving you the external address and port.
1819 * - If a NAT mapping is required but not obtained from the local NAT gateway,
1820 * or the machine has no network connectivity, then your callback will be
1821 * invoked giving zero address and port.
1823 * 2. In other NAT mapping APIs, if a laptop computer is put to sleep and woken up on a new
1824 * network, it's the client's job to notice this, and work out whether a NAT mapping
1825 * is required on the new network, and make a new NAT mapping request if necessary.
1826 * The DNSServiceNATPortMappingCreate API does this for you, automatically.
1827 * The client just needs to make one call to the PortMapping API, and its callback will
1828 * be invoked any time the mapping state changes. This property complements point (1) above.
1829 * If the client didn't make a NAT mapping request just because it determined that one was
1830 * not required at that particular moment in time, the client would then have to monitor
1831 * for network state changes to determine if a NAT port mapping later became necessary.
1832 * By unconditionally making a NAT mapping request, even when a NAT mapping not to be
1833 * necessary, the PortMapping API will then begin monitoring network state changes on behalf of
1834 * the client, and if a NAT mapping later becomes necessary, it will automatically create a NAT
1835 * mapping and inform the client with a new callback giving the new address and port information.

2356 * if the mDNSResponder daemon is manually terminated or crashes, and the error
2357 * code in this case is kDNSServiceErr_ServiceNotRunning. The application must call
2358 * DNSServiceRefDeallocate to free the DNSServiceRef when it gets such an error code.
2359 * These error callbacks are rare and should not normally happen on customer machines,
2360 * but application code should be written defensively to handle such error callbacks
2361 * gracefully if they occur.
2363 * After using DNSServiceSetDispatchQueue on a DNSServiceRef, calling DNSServiceProcessResult
2364 * on the same DNSServiceRef will result in undefined behavior and should be avoided.
2366 * Once the application successfully schedules a DNSServiceRef on a serial dispatch queue using
2367 * DNSServiceSetDispatchQueue, it cannot remove the DNSServiceRef from the dispatch queue, or use
2368 * DNSServiceSetDispatchQueue a second time to schedule the DNSServiceRef onto a different serial dispatch
2369 * queue. Once scheduled onto a dispatch queue a DNSServiceRef will deliver events to that queue until
2370 * the application no longer requires that operation and terminates it using DNSServiceRefDeallocate.
2372 * service: DNSServiceRef that was allocated and returned to the application, when the
2373 * application calls one of the DNSService API.
2375 * queue: dispatch queue where the application callback will be scheduled
2377 * return value: Returns kDNSServiceErr_NoError on success.
2378 * Returns kDNSServiceErr_NoMemory if it cannot create a dispatch source
2379 * Returns kDNSServiceErr_BadParam if the service param is invalid or the
2380 * queue param is invalid
