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) ...
170 * With the exception of kDNSServiceFlagsValidate, each flag can be valid(be set)
171 * EITHER only as an input to one of the DNSService*() APIs OR only as an output
172 * (provide status) through any of the callbacks used. For example, kDNSServiceFlagsAdd
173 * can be set only as an output in the callback, whereas the kDNSServiceFlagsIncludeP2P
174 * can be set only as an input to the DNSService*() APIs. See comments on kDNSServiceFlagsValidate
175 * defined in enum below.

180 /* MoreComing indicates to a callback that at least one more result is

184 * on the screen, and can waste a great deal of CPU time repeatedly updating

186 * Applications should wait until MoreComing is not set, and then
187 * update their UI when no more changes are imminent.

257 * the CNAME referral, the intermediate CNAME result is also returned to the client.
258 * When this flag is not set, NXDomain errors are not returned, and CNAME records

269 * an associated PTR record.
272 kDNSServiceFlagsShareConnection
= 0x4000,
273 /* For efficiency, clients that perform many concurrent operations may want to use a
274 * single Unix Domain Socket connection with the background daemon, instead of having a
275 * separate connection for each independent operation. To use this mode, clients first
276 * call DNSServiceCreateConnection(&MainRef) to initialize the main DNSServiceRef.
277 * For each subsequent operation that is to share that same connection, the client copies
278 * the MainRef, and then passes the address of that copy, setting the ShareConnection flag
279 * to tell the library that this DNSServiceRef is not a typical uninitialized DNSServiceRef;
280 * it's a copy of an existing DNSServiceRef whose connection information should be reused.
284 * DNSServiceErrorType error;
285 * DNSServiceRef MainRef;

288 * DNSServiceRef BrowseRef = MainRef; // Important: COPY the primary DNSServiceRef first...
289 * error = DNSServiceBrowse(&BrowseRef, kDNSServiceFlagsShareConnection, ...); // then use the copy
292 * DNSServiceRefDeallocate(BrowseRef); // Terminate the browse operation
293 * DNSServiceRefDeallocate(MainRef); // Terminate the shared connection
297 * 1. Collective kDNSServiceFlagsMoreComing flag
298 * When callbacks are invoked using a shared DNSServiceRef, the
299 * kDNSServiceFlagsMoreComing flag applies collectively to *all* active
300 * operations sharing the same parent DNSServiceRef. If the MoreComing flag is
301 * set it means that there are more results queued on this parent DNSServiceRef,
302 * but not necessarily more results for this particular callback function.
303 * The implication of this for client programmers is that when a callback
304 * is invoked with the MoreComing flag set, the code should update its
305 * internal data structures with the new result, and set a variable indicating
306 * that its UI needs to be updated. Then, later when a callback is eventually
307 * invoked with the MoreComing flag not set, the code should update *all*
308 * stale UI elements related to that shared parent DNSServiceRef that need
309 * updating, not just the UI elements related to the particular callback
310 * that happened to be the last one to be invoked.
312 * 2. Canceling operations and kDNSServiceFlagsMoreComing
313 * Whenever you cancel any operation for which you had deferred UI updates
314 * waiting because of a kDNSServiceFlagsMoreComing flag, you should perform
315 * those deferred UI updates. This is because, after cancelling the operation,
316 * you can no longer wait for a callback *without* MoreComing set, to tell
317 * you do perform your deferred UI updates (the operation has been canceled,
318 * so there will be no more callbacks). An implication of the collective
319 * kDNSServiceFlagsMoreComing flag for shared connections is that this
320 * guideline applies more broadly -- any time you cancel an operation on
321 * a shared connection, you should perform all deferred UI updates for all
322 * operations sharing that connection. This is because the MoreComing flag
323 * might have been referring to events coming for the operation you canceled,
324 * which will now not be coming because the operation has been canceled.
326 * 3. Only share DNSServiceRef's created with DNSServiceCreateConnection
327 * Calling DNSServiceCreateConnection(&ref) creates a special shareable DNSServiceRef.
328 * DNSServiceRef's created by other calls like DNSServiceBrowse() or DNSServiceResolve()
329 * cannot be shared by copying them and using kDNSServiceFlagsShareConnection.
331 * 4. Don't Double-Deallocate
332 * Calling DNSServiceRefDeallocate(ref) for a particular operation's DNSServiceRef terminates
333 * just that operation. Calling DNSServiceRefDeallocate(ref) for the main shared DNSServiceRef
334 * (the parent DNSServiceRef, originally created by DNSServiceCreateConnection(&ref))
335 * automatically terminates the shared connection and all operations that were still using it.
336 * After doing this, DO NOT then attempt to deallocate any remaining subordinate DNSServiceRef's.
337 * The memory used by those subordinate DNSServiceRef's has already been freed, so any attempt
338 * to do a DNSServiceRefDeallocate (or any other operation) on them will result in accesses
339 * to freed memory, leading to crashes or other equally undesirable results.
342 * The dns_sd.h API does not presuppose any particular threading model, and consequently
343 * does no locking of its own (which would require linking some specific threading library).
344 * If client code calls API routines on the same DNSServiceRef concurrently
345 * from multiple threads, it is the client's responsibility to use a mutext
346 * lock or take similar appropriate precautions to serialize those calls.
349 kDNSServiceFlagsSuppressUnusable
= 0x8000,
351 * This flag is meaningful only in DNSServiceQueryRecord which suppresses unusable queries on the
352 * wire. If "hostname" is a wide-area unicast DNS hostname (i.e. not a ".local." name)
353 * but this host has no routable IPv6 address, then the call will not try to look up IPv6 addresses
354 * for "hostname", since any addresses it found would be unlikely to be of any use anyway. Similarly,
355 * if this host has no routable IPv4 address, the call will not try to look up IPv4 addresses for
359 kDNSServiceFlagsTimeout
= 0x10000,
361 * When kDNServiceFlagsTimeout is passed to DNSServiceQueryRecord or DNSServiceGetAddrInfo, the query is
362 * stopped after a certain number of seconds have elapsed. The time at which the query will be stopped
363 * is determined by the system and cannot be configured by the user. The query will be stopped irrespective
364 * of whether a response was given earlier or not. When the query is stopped, the callback will be called
365 * with an error code of kDNSServiceErr_Timeout and a NULL sockaddr will be returned for DNSServiceGetAddrInfo
366 * and zero length rdata will be returned for DNSServiceQueryRecord.
369 kDNSServiceFlagsIncludeP2P
= 0x20000,
371 * Include P2P interfaces when kDNSServiceInterfaceIndexAny is specified.
372 * By default, specifying kDNSServiceInterfaceIndexAny does not include P2P interfaces.
375 kDNSServiceFlagsWakeOnResolve
= 0x40000,
377 * This flag is meaningful only in DNSServiceResolve. When set, it tries to send a magic packet
378 * to wake up the client.
381 kDNSServiceFlagsBackgroundTrafficClass
= 0x80000,
383 * This flag is meaningful in DNSServiceBrowse, DNSServiceGetAddrInfo, DNSServiceQueryRecord,
384 * and DNSServiceResolve. When set, it uses the background traffic
385 * class for packets that service the request.
388 kDNSServiceFlagsIncludeAWDL
= 0x100000,
390 * Include AWDL interface when kDNSServiceInterfaceIndexAny is specified.
393 kDNSServiceFlagsValidate
= 0x200000,
395 * This flag is meaningful in DNSServiceGetAddrInfo and DNSServiceQueryRecord. This is the ONLY flag to be valid
396 * as an input to the APIs and also an output through the callbacks in the APIs.
398 * When this flag is passed to DNSServiceQueryRecord and DNSServiceGetAddrInfo to resolve unicast names,
399 * the response will be validated using DNSSEC. The validation results are delivered using the flags field in
400 * the callback and kDNSServiceFlagsValidate is marked in the flags to indicate that DNSSEC status is also available.
401 * When the callback is called to deliver the query results, the validation results may or may not be available.
402 * If it is not delivered along with the results, the validation status is delivered when the validation completes.
404 * When the validation results are delivered in the callback, it is indicated by marking the flags with
405 * kDNSServiceFlagsValidate and kDNSServiceFlagsAdd along with the DNSSEC status flags (described below) and a NULL
406 * sockaddr will be returned for DNSServiceGetAddrInfo and zero length rdata will be returned for DNSServiceQueryRecord.
407 * DNSSEC validation results are for the whole RRSet and not just individual records delivered in the callback. When
408 * kDNSServiceFlagsAdd is not set in the flags, applications should implicitly assume that the DNSSEC status of the
409 * RRSet that has been delivered up until that point is not valid anymore, till another callback is called with
410 * kDNSServiceFlagsAdd and kDNSServiceFlagsValidate.
412 * The following four flags indicate the status of the DNSSEC validation and marked in the flags field of the callback.
413 * When any of the four flags is set, kDNSServiceFlagsValidate will also be set. To check the validation status, the
414 * other applicable output flags should be masked. See kDNSServiceOutputFlags below.
417 kDNSServiceFlagsSecure
= 0x200010,
419 * The response has been validated by verifying all the signaures in the response and was able to
420 * build a successful authentication chain starting from a known trust anchor.
423 kDNSServiceFlagsInsecure
= 0x200020,
425 * A chain of trust cannot be built starting from a known trust anchor to the response.
428 kDNSServiceFlagsBogus
= 0x200040,
430 * If the response cannot be verified to be secure due to expired signatures, missing signatures etc.,
431 * then the results are considered to be bogus.
434 kDNSServiceFlagsIndeterminate
= 0x200080,
436 * There is no valid trust anchor that can be used to determine whether a response is secure or not.
439 kDNSServiceFlagsUnicastResponse
= 0x400000,
441 * Request unicast response to query.
443 kDNSServiceFlagsValidateOptional
= 0x800000,
446 * This flag is identical to kDNSServiceFlagsValidate except for the case where the response
447 * cannot be validated. If this flag is set in DNSServiceQueryRecord or DNSServiceGetAddrInfo,
448 * the DNSSEC records will be requested for validation. If they cannot be received for some reason
449 * during the validation (e.g., zone is not signed, zone is signed but cannot be traced back to
450 * root, recursive server does not understand DNSSEC etc.), then this will fallback to the default
451 * behavior where the validation will not be performed and no DNSSEC results will be provided.
453 * If the zone is signed and there is a valid path to a known trust anchor configured in the system
454 * and the application requires DNSSEC validation irrespective of the DNSSEC awareness in the current
455 * network, then this option MUST not be used. This is only intended to be used during the transition
456 * period where the different nodes participating in the DNS resolution may not understand DNSSEC or
457 * managed properly (e.g. missing DS record) but still want to be able to resolve DNS successfully.
460 kDNSServiceFlagsWakeOnlyService
= 0x1000000,
462 * This flag is meaningful only in DNSServiceRegister. When set, the service will not be registered
463 * with sleep proxy server during sleep.
466 kDNSServiceFlagsThresholdOne
= 0x2000000,
467 kDNSServiceFlagsThresholdFinder
= 0x4000000,
468 kDNSServiceFlagsThresholdReached
= kDNSServiceFlagsThresholdOne
,
470 * kDNSServiceFlagsThresholdOne is meaningful only in DNSServiceBrowse. When set,
471 * the system will stop issuing browse queries on the network once the number
472 * of answers returned is one or more. It will issue queries on the network
473 * again if the number of answers drops to zero.
474 * This flag is for Apple internal use only. Third party developers
475 * should not rely on this behavior being supported in any given software release.
477 * kDNSServiceFlagsThresholdFinder is meaningful only in DNSServiceBrowse. When set,
478 * the system will stop issuing browse queries on the network once the number
479 * of answers has reached the threshold set for Finder.
480 * It will issue queries on the network again if the number of answers drops below
482 * This flag is for Apple internal use only. Third party developers
483 * should not rely on this behavior being supported in any given software release.
485 * When kDNSServiceFlagsThresholdReached is set in the client callback add or remove event,
486 * it indicates that the browse answer threshold has been reached and no
487 * browse requests will be generated on the network until the number of answers falls
488 * below the threshold value. Add and remove events can still occur based
489 * on incoming Bonjour traffic observed by the system.
490 * The set of services return to the client is not guaranteed to represent the
491 * entire set of services present on the network once the threshold has been reached.
493 * Note, while kDNSServiceFlagsThresholdReached and kDNSServiceFlagsThresholdOne
494 * have the same value, there isn't a conflict because kDNSServiceFlagsThresholdReached
495 * is only set in the callbacks and kDNSServiceFlagsThresholdOne is only set on
496 * input to a DNSServiceBrowse call.

658 * Notes on DNS Name Escaping
660 * "Why is kDNSServiceMaxDomainName 1009, when the maximum legal domain name is 256 bytes?"
662 * All strings used in the DNS-SD APIs are UTF-8 strings. Apart from the exceptions noted below,
663 * the APIs expect the strings to be properly escaped, using the conventional DNS escaping rules:
665 * '\\' represents a single literal '\' in the name
666 * '\.' represents a single literal '.' in the name
667 * '\ddd', where ddd is a three-digit decimal value from 000 to 255,
668 * represents a single literal byte with that value.
669 * A bare unescaped '.' is a label separator, marking a boundary between domain and subdomain.
671 * The exceptions, that do not use escaping, are the routines where the full
672 * DNS name of a resource is broken, for convenience, into servicename/regtype/domain.
673 * In these routines, the "servicename" is NOT escaped. It does not need to be, since
674 * it is, by definition, just a single literal string. Any characters in that string
675 * represent exactly what they are. The "regtype" portion is, technically speaking,
676 * escaped, but since legal regtypes are only allowed to contain letters, digits,
677 * and hyphens, there is nothing to escape, so the issue is moot. The "domain"
678 * portion is also escaped, though most domains in use on the public Internet
679 * today, like regtypes, don't contain any characters that need to be escaped.
680 * As DNS-SD becomes more popular, rich-text domains for service discovery will
681 * become common, so software should be written to cope with domains with escaping.
683 * The servicename may be up to 63 bytes of UTF-8 text (not counting the C-String
684 * terminating NULL at the end). The regtype is of the form _service._tcp or
685 * _service._udp, where the "service" part is 1-15 characters, which may be
686 * letters, digits, or hyphens. The domain part of the three-part name may be
687 * any legal domain, providing that the resulting servicename+regtype+domain
688 * name does not exceed 256 bytes.
690 * For most software, these issues are transparent. When browsing, the discovered
691 * servicenames should simply be displayed as-is. When resolving, the discovered
692 * servicename/regtype/domain are simply passed unchanged to DNSServiceResolve().
693 * When a DNSServiceResolve() succeeds, the returned fullname is already in
694 * the correct format to pass to standard system DNS APIs such as res_query().
695 * For converting from servicename/regtype/domain to a single properly-escaped
696 * full DNS name, the helper function DNSServiceConstructFullName() is provided.
698 * The following (highly contrived) example illustrates the escaping process.
699 * Suppose you have an service called "Dr. Smith\Dr. Johnson", of type "_ftp._tcp"
700 * in subdomain "4th. Floor" of subdomain "Building 2" of domain "apple.com."
701 * The full (escaped) DNS name of this service's SRV record would be:
702 * Dr\.\032Smith\\Dr\.\032Johnson._ftp._tcp.4th\.\032Floor.Building\0322.apple.com.
707 * Constants for specifying an interface index
709 * Specific interface indexes are identified via a 32-bit unsigned integer returned
710 * by the if_nametoindex() family of calls.
712 * If the client passes 0 for interface index, that means "do the right thing",
713 * which (at present) means, "if the name is in an mDNS local multicast domain
714 * (e.g. 'local.', '254.169.in-addr.arpa.', '{8,9,A,B}.E.F.ip6.arpa.') then multicast
715 * on all applicable interfaces, otherwise send via unicast to the appropriate
716 * DNS server." Normally, most clients will use 0 for interface index to
717 * automatically get the default sensible behaviour.
719 * If the client passes a positive interface index, then for multicast names that
720 * indicates to do the operation only on that one interface. For unicast names the
721 * interface index is ignored unless kDNSServiceFlagsForceMulticast is also set.
723 * If the client passes kDNSServiceInterfaceIndexLocalOnly when registering
724 * a service, then that service will be found *only* by other local clients
725 * on the same machine that are browsing using kDNSServiceInterfaceIndexLocalOnly
726 * or kDNSServiceInterfaceIndexAny.
727 * If a client has a 'private' service, accessible only to other processes
728 * running on the same machine, this allows the client to advertise that service
729 * in a way such that it does not inadvertently appear in service lists on
730 * all the other machines on the network.
732 * If the client passes kDNSServiceInterfaceIndexLocalOnly when browsing
733 * then it will find *all* records registered on that same local machine.
734 * Clients explicitly wishing to discover *only* LocalOnly services can
735 * accomplish this by inspecting the interfaceIndex of each service reported
736 * to their DNSServiceBrowseReply() callback function, and discarding those
737 * where the interface index is not kDNSServiceInterfaceIndexLocalOnly.
739 * kDNSServiceInterfaceIndexP2P is meaningful only in Browse, QueryRecord, Register,
740 * and Resolve operations. It should not be used in other DNSService APIs.
742 * - If kDNSServiceInterfaceIndexP2P is passed to DNSServiceBrowse or
743 * DNSServiceQueryRecord, it restricts the operation to P2P.
745 * - If kDNSServiceInterfaceIndexP2P is passed to DNSServiceRegister, it is
746 * mapped internally to kDNSServiceInterfaceIndexAny with the kDNSServiceFlagsIncludeP2P
749 * - If kDNSServiceInterfaceIndexP2P is passed to DNSServiceResolve, it is
750 * mapped internally to kDNSServiceInterfaceIndexAny with the kDNSServiceFlagsIncludeP2P
751 * set, because resolving a P2P service may create and/or enable an interface whose
752 * index is not known a priori. The resolve callback will indicate the index of the
753 * interface via which the service can be accessed.
755 * If applications pass kDNSServiceInterfaceIndexAny to DNSServiceBrowse
756 * or DNSServiceQueryRecord, they must set the kDNSServiceFlagsIncludeP2P flag
757 * to include P2P. In this case, if a service instance or the record being queried
758 * is found over P2P, the resulting ADD event will indicate kDNSServiceInterfaceIndexP2P
759 * as the interface index.

1075 /* DNSServiceRegister() Parameters:
1077 * sdRef: A pointer to an uninitialized DNSServiceRef. If the call succeeds
1078 * then it initializes the DNSServiceRef, returns kDNSServiceErr_NoError,
1079 * and the registration will remain active indefinitely until the client
1080 * terminates it by passing this DNSServiceRef to DNSServiceRefDeallocate().
1082 * interfaceIndex: If non-zero, specifies the interface on which to register the service
1083 * (the index for a given interface is determined via the if_nametoindex()
1084 * family of calls.) Most applications will pass 0 to register on all
1085 * available interfaces. See "Constants for specifying an interface index" for more details.
1087 * flags: Indicates the renaming behavior on name conflict (most applications
1088 * will pass 0). See flag definitions above for details.
1090 * name: If non-NULL, specifies the service name to be registered.
1091 * Most applications will not specify a name, in which case the computer
1092 * name is used (this name is communicated to the client via the callback).
1093 * If a name is specified, it must be 1-63 bytes of UTF-8 text.
1094 * If the name is longer than 63 bytes it will be automatically truncated
1095 * to a legal length, unless the NoAutoRename flag is set,
1096 * in which case kDNSServiceErr_BadParam will be returned.
1098 * regtype: The service type followed by the protocol, separated by a dot
1099 * (e.g. "_ftp._tcp"). The service type must be an underscore, followed
1100 * by 1-15 characters, which may be letters, digits, or hyphens.
1101 * The transport protocol must be "_tcp" or "_udp". New service types
1102 * should be registered at <http://www.dns-sd.org/ServiceTypes.html>.
1104 * Additional subtypes of the primary service type (where a service
1105 * type has defined subtypes) follow the primary service type in a
1106 * comma-separated list, with no additional spaces, e.g.
1107 * "_primarytype._tcp,_subtype1,_subtype2,_subtype3"
1108 * Subtypes provide a mechanism for filtered browsing: A client browsing
1109 * for "_primarytype._tcp" will discover all instances of this type;
1110 * a client browsing for "_primarytype._tcp,_subtype2" will discover only
1111 * those instances that were registered with "_subtype2" in their list of
1112 * registered subtypes.
1114 * The subtype mechanism can be illustrated with some examples using the
1115 * dns-sd command-line tool:
1117 * % dns-sd -R Simple _test._tcp "" 1001 &
1118 * % dns-sd -R Better _test._tcp,HasFeatureA "" 1002 &
1119 * % dns-sd -R Best _test._tcp,HasFeatureA,HasFeatureB "" 1003 &
1122 * % dns-sd -B _test._tcp # will find all three services
1123 * % dns-sd -B _test._tcp,HasFeatureA # finds "Better" and "Best"
1124 * % dns-sd -B _test._tcp,HasFeatureB # finds only "Best"
1126 * Subtype labels may be up to 63 bytes long, and may contain any eight-
1127 * bit byte values, including zero bytes. However, due to the nature of
1128 * using a C-string-based API, conventional DNS escaping must be used for
1129 * dots ('.'), commas (','), backslashes ('\') and zero bytes, as shown below:
1131 * % dns-sd -R Test '_test._tcp,s\.one,s\,two,s\\three,s\000four' local 123
1133 * When a service is registered, all the clients browsing for the registered
1134 * type ("regtype") will discover it. If the discovery should be
1135 * restricted to a smaller set of well known peers, the service can be
1136 * registered with additional data (group identifier) that is known
1137 * only to a smaller set of peers. The group identifier should follow primary
1138 * service type using a colon (":") as a delimeter. If subtypes are also present,
1139 * it should be given before the subtype as shown below.
1141 * % dns-sd -R _test1 _http._tcp:mygroup1 local 1001
1142 * % dns-sd -R _test2 _http._tcp:mygroup2 local 1001
1143 * % dns-sd -R _test3 _http._tcp:mygroup3,HasFeatureA local 1001
1146 * % dns-sd -B _http._tcp:"mygroup1" # will discover only test1
1147 * % dns-sd -B _http._tcp:"mygroup2" # will discover only test2
1148 * % dns-sd -B _http._tcp:"mygroup3",HasFeatureA # will discover only test3
1150 * By specifying the group information, only the members of that group are
1153 * The group identifier itself is not sent in clear. Only a hash of the group
1154 * identifier is sent and the clients discover them anonymously. The group identifier
1155 * may be up to 256 bytes long and may contain any eight bit values except comma which
1156 * should be escaped.
1158 * domain: If non-NULL, specifies the domain on which to advertise the service.
1159 * Most applications will not specify a domain, instead automatically
1160 * registering in the default domain(s).
1162 * host: If non-NULL, specifies the SRV target host name. Most applications
1163 * will not specify a host, instead automatically using the machine's
1164 * default host name(s). Note that specifying a non-NULL host does NOT
1165 * create an address record for that host - the application is responsible
1166 * for ensuring that the appropriate address record exists, or creating it
1167 * via DNSServiceRegisterRecord().
1169 * port: The port, in network byte order, on which the service accepts connections.
1170 * Pass 0 for a "placeholder" service (i.e. a service that will not be discovered
1171 * by browsing, but will cause a name conflict if another client tries to
1172 * register that same name). Most clients will not use placeholder services.
1174 * txtLen: The length of the txtRecord, in bytes. Must be zero if the txtRecord is NULL.
1176 * txtRecord: The TXT record rdata. A non-NULL txtRecord MUST be a properly formatted DNS
1177 * TXT record, i.e. <length byte> <data> <length byte> <data> ...
1178 * Passing NULL for the txtRecord is allowed as a synonym for txtLen=1, txtRecord="",
1179 * i.e. it creates a TXT record of length one containing a single empty string.
1180 * RFC 1035 doesn't allow a TXT record to contain *zero* strings, so a single empty
1181 * string is the smallest legal DNS TXT record.
1182 * As with the other parameters, the DNSServiceRegister call copies the txtRecord
1183 * data; e.g. if you allocated the storage for the txtRecord parameter with malloc()
1184 * then you can safely free that memory right after the DNSServiceRegister call returns.
1186 * callBack: The function to be called when the registration completes or asynchronously
1187 * fails. The client MAY pass NULL for the callback - The client will NOT be notified
1188 * of the default values picked on its behalf, and the client will NOT be notified of any
1189 * asynchronous errors (e.g. out of memory errors, etc.) that may prevent the registration
1190 * of the service. The client may NOT pass the NoAutoRename flag if the callback is NULL.
1191 * The client may still deregister the service at any time via DNSServiceRefDeallocate().
1193 * context: An application context pointer which is passed to the callback function
1196 * return value: Returns kDNSServiceErr_NoError on success (any subsequent, asynchronous
1197 * errors are delivered to the callback), otherwise returns an error code indicating
1198 * the error that occurred (the callback is never invoked and the DNSServiceRef
1199 * is not initialized).

1498 * If you need to maintain portable code that will compile cleanly with both the old and new versions of

1982 * The client should then record this external IP address and port using whatever
1983 * directory service mechanism it is using to enable peers to connect to it.
1984 * (Clients advertising services using Wide-Area DNS-SD DO NOT need to use this API
1985 * -- when a client calls DNSServiceRegister() NAT mappings are automatically created
1986 * and the external IP address and port for the service are recorded in the global DNS.
1987 * Only clients using some directory mechanism other than Wide-Area DNS-SD need to use
1988 * this API to explicitly map their own ports.)
1990 * It's possible that the client callback could be called multiple times, for example
1991 * if the NAT gateway's IP address changes, or if a configuration change results in a
1992 * different external port being mapped for this client. Over the lifetime of any long-lived
1993 * port mapping, the client should be prepared to handle these notifications of changes
1994 * in the environment, and should update its recorded address and/or port as appropriate.
1996 * NOTE: There are two unusual aspects of how the DNSServiceNATPortMappingCreate API works,
1997 * which were intentionally designed to help simplify client code:
1999 * 1. It's not an error to request a NAT mapping when the machine is not behind a NAT gateway.
2000 * In other NAT mapping APIs, if you request a NAT mapping and the machine is not behind a NAT
2001 * gateway, then the API returns an error code -- it can't get you a NAT mapping if there's no
2002 * NAT gateway. The DNSServiceNATPortMappingCreate API takes a different view. Working out
2003 * whether or not you need a NAT mapping can be tricky and non-obvious, particularly on
2004 * a machine with multiple active network interfaces. Rather than make every client recreate
2005 * this logic for deciding whether a NAT mapping is required, the PortMapping API does that
2006 * work for you. If the client calls the PortMapping API when the machine already has a
2007 * routable public IP address, then instead of complaining about it and giving an error,
2008 * the PortMapping API just invokes your callback, giving the machine's public address
2009 * and your own port number. This means you don't need to write code to work out whether
2010 * your client needs to call the PortMapping API -- just call it anyway, and if it wasn't
2011 * necessary, no harm is done:
2013 * - If the machine already has a routable public IP address, then your callback
2014 * will just be invoked giving your own address and port.
2015 * - If a NAT mapping is required and obtained, then your callback will be invoked
2016 * giving you the external address and port.
2017 * - If a NAT mapping is required but not obtained from the local NAT gateway,
2018 * or the machine has no network connectivity, then your callback will be
2019 * invoked giving zero address and port.
2021 * 2. In other NAT mapping APIs, if a laptop computer is put to sleep and woken up on a new
2022 * network, it's the client's job to notice this, and work out whether a NAT mapping
2023 * is required on the new network, and make a new NAT mapping request if necessary.
2024 * The DNSServiceNATPortMappingCreate API does this for you, automatically.
2025 * The client just needs to make one call to the PortMapping API, and its callback will
2026 * be invoked any time the mapping state changes. This property complements point (1) above.
2027 * If the client didn't make a NAT mapping request just because it determined that one was
2028 * not required at that particular moment in time, the client would then have to monitor
2029 * for network state changes to determine if a NAT port mapping later became necessary.
2030 * By unconditionally making a NAT mapping request, even when a NAT mapping not to be
2031 * necessary, the PortMapping API will then begin monitoring network state changes on behalf of
2032 * the client, and if a NAT mapping later becomes necessary, it will automatically create a NAT
2033 * mapping and inform the client with a new callback giving the new address and port information.

2037 * sdRef: The DNSServiceRef initialized by DNSServiceNATPortMappingCreate().

2222 * If the buffer parameter is NULL, or the specified storage size is not

2226 * On some platforms, when memory is low, malloc() may fail. In this

2230 * You can avoid the need to handle this error condition if you ensure
2231 * that the storage you initially provide is large enough to hold all
2232 * the key/value pairs that are to be added to the record.
2233 * The caller can precompute the exact length required for all of the
2234 * key/value pairs to be added, or simply provide a fixed-sized buffer
2235 * known in advance to be large enough.
2236 * A no-value (key-only) key requires (1 + key length) bytes.
2237 * A key with empty value requires (1 + key length + 1) bytes.
2238 * A key with non-empty value requires (1 + key length + 1 + value length).
2239 * For most applications, DNS-SD TXT records are generally
2240 * less than 100 bytes, so in most cases a simple fixed-sized
2241 * 256-byte buffer will be more than sufficient.
2242 * Recommended size limits for DNS-SD TXT Records are discussed in

2245 * Note: When passing parameters to and from these TXT record APIs,

2387 * TXT Record Parsing Functions

2392 * A typical calling sequence for TXT record parsing is something like:
2394 * Receive TXT record data in DNSServiceResolve() callback
2395 * if (TXTRecordContainsKey(txtLen, txtRecord, "key")) then do something
2396 * val1ptr = TXTRecordGetValuePtr(txtLen, txtRecord, "key1", &len1);
2397 * val2ptr = TXTRecordGetValuePtr(txtLen, txtRecord, "key2", &len2);
2399 * memcpy(myval1, val1ptr, len1);
2400 * memcpy(myval2, val2ptr, len2);
2404 * If you wish to retain the values after return from the DNSServiceResolve()
2405 * callback, then you need to copy the data to your own storage using memcpy()
2406 * or similar, as shown in the example above.
2408 * If for some reason you need to parse a TXT record you built yourself
2409 * using the TXT record construction functions above, then you can do
2410 * that using TXTRecordGetLength and TXTRecordGetBytesPtr calls:
2411 * TXTRecordGetValue(TXTRecordGetLength(x), TXTRecordGetBytesPtr(x), key, &len);
2413 * Most applications only fetch keys they know about from a TXT record and
2415 * However, some debugging tools wish to fetch and display all keys.
2416 * To do that, use the TXTRecordGetCount() and TXTRecordGetItemAtIndex() calls.

2542 * DNSServiceSetDispatchQueue
2544 * Allows you to schedule a DNSServiceRef on a serial dispatch queue for receiving asynchronous
2545 * callbacks. It's the clients responsibility to ensure that the provided dispatch queue is running.
2547 * A typical application that uses CFRunLoopRun or dispatch_main on its main thread will
2548 * usually schedule DNSServiceRefs on its main queue (which is always a serial queue)
2549 * using "DNSServiceSetDispatchQueue(sdref, dispatch_get_main_queue());"
2551 * If there is any error during the processing of events, the application callback will
2552 * be called with an error code. For shared connections, each subordinate DNSServiceRef
2553 * will get its own error callback. Currently these error callbacks only happen
2554 * if the mDNSResponder daemon is manually terminated or crashes, and the error
2555 * code in this case is kDNSServiceErr_ServiceNotRunning. The application must call
2556 * DNSServiceRefDeallocate to free the DNSServiceRef when it gets such an error code.
2557 * These error callbacks are rare and should not normally happen on customer machines,
2558 * but application code should be written defensively to handle such error callbacks
2559 * gracefully if they occur.
2561 * After using DNSServiceSetDispatchQueue on a DNSServiceRef, calling DNSServiceProcessResult
2562 * on the same DNSServiceRef will result in undefined behavior and should be avoided.
2564 * Once the application successfully schedules a DNSServiceRef on a serial dispatch queue using
2565 * DNSServiceSetDispatchQueue, it cannot remove the DNSServiceRef from the dispatch queue, or use
2566 * DNSServiceSetDispatchQueue a second time to schedule the DNSServiceRef onto a different serial dispatch
2567 * queue. Once scheduled onto a dispatch queue a DNSServiceRef will deliver events to that queue until
2568 * the application no longer requires that operation and terminates it using DNSServiceRefDeallocate.
2570 * service: DNSServiceRef that was allocated and returned to the application, when the
2571 * application calls one of the DNSService API.
2573 * queue: dispatch queue where the application callback will be scheduled
2575 * return value: Returns kDNSServiceErr_NoError on success.
2576 * Returns kDNSServiceErr_NoMemory if it cannot create a dispatch source
2577 * Returns kDNSServiceErr_BadParam if the service param is invalid or the
2578 * queue param is invalid
