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.
57 /* _DNS_SD_H contains the API version number for this header file
58 * The API version defined in this header file symbol allows for compile-time
59 * checking, so that C code building with earlier versions of the header file
60 * can avoid compile errors trying to use functions that aren't even defined
61 * in those earlier versions. Similar checks may also be performed at run-time:
62 * => weak linking -- to avoid link failures if run with an earlier
63 * version of the library that's missing some desired symbol, or
64 * => DNSServiceGetProperty(DaemonVersion) -- to verify whether the running daemon
65 * ("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) ...
159 * With the exception of kDNSServiceFlagsValidate, each flag can be valid(be set)
160 * EITHER only as an input to one of the DNSService*() APIs OR only as an output
161 * (provide status) through any of the callbacks used. For example, kDNSServiceFlagsAdd
162 * can be set only as an output in the callback, whereas the kDNSServiceFlagsIncludeP2P
163 * can be set only as an input to the DNSService*() APIs. See comments on kDNSServiceFlagsValidate
164 * defined in enum below.

261 kDNSServiceFlagsShareConnection = 0x4000,
262 /* For efficiency, clients that perform many concurrent operations may want to use a
263 * single Unix Domain Socket connection with the background daemon, instead of having a
264 * separate connection for each independent operation. To use this mode, clients first
265 * call DNSServiceCreateConnection(&MainRef) to initialize the main DNSServiceRef.
266 * For each subsequent operation that is to share that same connection, the client copies
267 * the MainRef, and then passes the address of that copy, setting the ShareConnection flag
268 * to tell the library that this DNSServiceRef is not a typical uninitialized DNSServiceRef;
269 * it's a copy of an existing DNSServiceRef whose connection information should be reused.
271 * For example:
273 * DNSServiceErrorType error;
274 * DNSServiceRef MainRef;
275 * error = DNSServiceCreateConnection(&MainRef);
276 * if (error) ...
277 * DNSServiceRef BrowseRef = MainRef; // Important: COPY the primary DNSServiceRef first...
278 * error = DNSServiceBrowse(&BrowseRef, kDNSServiceFlagsShareConnection, ...); // then use the copy
279 * if (error) ...
280 * ...
281 * DNSServiceRefDeallocate(BrowseRef); // Terminate the browse operation
282 * DNSServiceRefDeallocate(MainRef); // Terminate the shared connection
283 * Also see Point 4.(Don't Double-Deallocate if the MainRef has been Deallocated) in Notes below:
285 * Notes:
287 * 1. Collective kDNSServiceFlagsMoreComing flag
288 * When callbacks are invoked using a shared DNSServiceRef, the
289 * kDNSServiceFlagsMoreComing flag applies collectively to *all* active
290 * operations sharing the same parent DNSServiceRef. If the MoreComing flag is
291 * set it means that there are more results queued on this parent DNSServiceRef,
292 * but not necessarily more results for this particular callback function.
293 * The implication of this for client programmers is that when a callback
294 * is invoked with the MoreComing flag set, the code should update its
295 * internal data structures with the new result, and set a variable indicating
296 * that its UI needs to be updated. Then, later when a callback is eventually
297 * invoked with the MoreComing flag not set, the code should update *all*
298 * stale UI elements related to that shared parent DNSServiceRef that need
299 * updating, not just the UI elements related to the particular callback
300 * that happened to be the last one to be invoked.
302 * 2. Canceling operations and kDNSServiceFlagsMoreComing
303 * Whenever you cancel any operation for which you had deferred UI updates
304 * waiting because of a kDNSServiceFlagsMoreComing flag, you should perform
305 * those deferred UI updates. This is because, after cancelling the operation,
306 * you can no longer wait for a callback *without* MoreComing set, to tell
307 * you do perform your deferred UI updates (the operation has been canceled,
308 * so there will be no more callbacks). An implication of the collective
309 * kDNSServiceFlagsMoreComing flag for shared connections is that this
310 * guideline applies more broadly -- any time you cancel an operation on
311 * a shared connection, you should perform all deferred UI updates for all
312 * operations sharing that connection. This is because the MoreComing flag
313 * might have been referring to events coming for the operation you canceled,
314 * which will now not be coming because the operation has been canceled.
316 * 3. Only share DNSServiceRef's created with DNSServiceCreateConnection
317 * Calling DNSServiceCreateConnection(&ref) creates a special shareable DNSServiceRef.
318 * DNSServiceRef's created by other calls like DNSServiceBrowse() or DNSServiceResolve()
319 * cannot be shared by copying them and using kDNSServiceFlagsShareConnection.
321 * 4. Don't Double-Deallocate if the MainRef has been Deallocated
322 * Calling DNSServiceRefDeallocate(ref) for a particular operation's DNSServiceRef terminates
323 * just that operation. Calling DNSServiceRefDeallocate(ref) for the main shared DNSServiceRef
324 * (the parent DNSServiceRef, originally created by DNSServiceCreateConnection(&ref))
325 * automatically terminates the shared connection and all operations that were still using it.
326 * After doing this, DO NOT then attempt to deallocate any remaining subordinate DNSServiceRef's.
327 * The memory used by those subordinate DNSServiceRef's has already been freed, so any attempt
328 * to do a DNSServiceRefDeallocate (or any other operation) on them will result in accesses
329 * to freed memory, leading to crashes or other equally undesirable results.
331 * 5. Thread Safety
332 * The dns_sd.h API does not presuppose any particular threading model, and consequently
333 * does no locking of its own (which would require linking some specific threading library).
334 * If client code calls API routines on the same DNSServiceRef concurrently
335 * from multiple threads, it is the client's responsibility to use a mutext
336 * lock or take similar appropriate precautions to serialize those calls.
339 kDNSServiceFlagsSuppressUnusable = 0x8000,
341 * This flag is meaningful only in DNSServiceQueryRecord which suppresses unusable queries on the
342 * wire. If "hostname" is a wide-area unicast DNS hostname (i.e. not a ".local." name)
343 * but this host has no routable IPv6 address, then the call will not try to look up IPv6 addresses
344 * for "hostname", since any addresses it found would be unlikely to be of any use anyway. Similarly,
345 * if this host has no routable IPv4 address, the call will not try to look up IPv4 addresses for
346 * "hostname".
349 kDNSServiceFlagsTimeout = 0x10000,
351 * When kDNServiceFlagsTimeout is passed to DNSServiceQueryRecord or DNSServiceGetAddrInfo, the query is
352 * stopped after a certain number of seconds have elapsed. The time at which the query will be stopped
353 * is determined by the system and cannot be configured by the user. The query will be stopped irrespective
354 * of whether a response was given earlier or not. When the query is stopped, the callback will be called
355 * with an error code of kDNSServiceErr_Timeout and a NULL sockaddr will be returned for DNSServiceGetAddrInfo
356 * and zero length rdata will be returned for DNSServiceQueryRecord.
359 kDNSServiceFlagsIncludeP2P = 0x20000,
361 * Include P2P interfaces when kDNSServiceInterfaceIndexAny is specified.
362 * By default, specifying kDNSServiceInterfaceIndexAny does not include P2P interfaces.
365 kDNSServiceFlagsWakeOnResolve = 0x40000,
367 * This flag is meaningful only in DNSServiceResolve. When set, it tries to send a magic packet
368 * to wake up the client.
371 kDNSServiceFlagsBackgroundTrafficClass = 0x80000,
373 * This flag is meaningful for Unicast DNS queries. When set, it uses the background traffic
374 * class for packets that service the request.
377 kDNSServiceFlagsIncludeAWDL = 0x100000,
379 * Include AWDL interface when kDNSServiceInterfaceIndexAny is specified.
382 kDNSServiceFlagsValidate = 0x200000,
384 * This flag is meaningful in DNSServiceGetAddrInfo and DNSServiceQueryRecord. This is the ONLY flag to be valid
385 * as an input to the APIs and also an output through the callbacks in the APIs.
387 * When this flag is passed to DNSServiceQueryRecord and DNSServiceGetAddrInfo to resolve unicast names,
388 * the response will be validated using DNSSEC. The validation results are delivered using the flags field in
389 * the callback and kDNSServiceFlagsValidate is marked in the flags to indicate that DNSSEC status is also available.
390 * When the callback is called to deliver the query results, the validation results may or may not be available.
391 * If it is not delivered along with the results, the validation status is delivered when the validation completes.
393 * When the validation results are delivered in the callback, it is indicated by marking the flags with
394 * kDNSServiceFlagsValidate and kDNSServiceFlagsAdd along with the DNSSEC status flags (described below) and a NULL
395 * sockaddr will be returned for DNSServiceGetAddrInfo and zero length rdata will be returned for DNSServiceQueryRecord.
396 * DNSSEC validation results are for the whole RRSet and not just individual records delivered in the callback. When
397 * kDNSServiceFlagsAdd is not set in the flags, applications should implicitly assume that the DNSSEC status of the
398 * RRSet that has been delivered up until that point is not valid anymore, till another callback is called with
399 * kDNSServiceFlagsAdd and kDNSServiceFlagsValidate.
401 * The following four flags indicate the status of the DNSSEC validation and marked in the flags field of the callback.
402 * When any of the four flags is set, kDNSServiceFlagsValidate will also be set. To check the validation status, the
403 * other applicable output flags should be masked. See kDNSServiceOutputFlags below.
406 kDNSServiceFlagsSecure = 0x200010,
408 * The response has been validated by verifying all the signaures in the response and was able to
409 * build a successful authentication chain starting from a known trust anchor.
412 kDNSServiceFlagsInsecure = 0x200020,
414 * A chain of trust cannot be built starting from a known trust anchor to the response.
417 kDNSServiceFlagsBogus = 0x200040,
419 * If the response cannot be verified to be secure due to expired signatures, missing signatures etc.,
420 * then the results are considered to be bogus.
423 kDNSServiceFlagsIndeterminate = 0x200080,
425 * There is no valid trust anchor that can be used to determine whether a response is secure or not.
428 kDNSServiceFlagsUnicastResponse = 0x400000,
430 * Request unicast response to query.
432 kDNSServiceFlagsValidateOptional = 0x800000,
435 * This flag is identical to kDNSServiceFlagsValidate except for the case where the response
436 * cannot be validated. If this flag is set in DNSServiceQueryRecord or DNSServiceGetAddrInfo,
437 * the DNSSEC records will be requested for validation. If they cannot be received for some reason
438 * during the validation (e.g., zone is not signed, zone is signed but cannot be traced back to
439 * root, recursive server does not understand DNSSEC etc.), then this will fallback to the default
440 * behavior where the validation will not be performed and no DNSSEC results will be provided.
442 * If the zone is signed and there is a valid path to a known trust anchor configured in the system
443 * and the application requires DNSSEC validation irrespective of the DNSSEC awareness in the current
444 * network, then this option MUST not be used. This is only intended to be used during the transition
445 * period where the different nodes participating in the DNS resolution may not understand DNSSEC or
446 * managed properly (e.g. missing DS record) but still want to be able to resolve DNS successfully.
449 kDNSServiceFlagsWakeOnlyService = 0x1000000,
451 * This flag is meaningful only in DNSServiceRegister. When set, the service will not be registered
452 * with sleep proxy server during sleep.
455 kDNSServiceFlagsThresholdOne = 0x2000000,
456 kDNSServiceFlagsThresholdFinder = 0x4000000,
457 kDNSServiceFlagsThresholdReached = kDNSServiceFlagsThresholdOne,
459 * kDNSServiceFlagsThresholdOne is meaningful only in DNSServiceBrowse. When set,
460 * the system will stop issuing browse queries on the network once the number
461 * of answers returned is one or more. It will issue queries on the network
462 * again if the number of answers drops to zero.
463 * This flag is for Apple internal use only. Third party developers
464 * should not rely on this behavior being supported in any given software release.
466 * kDNSServiceFlagsThresholdFinder is meaningful only in DNSServiceBrowse. When set,
467 * the system will stop issuing browse queries on the network once the number
468 * of answers has reached the threshold set for Finder.
469 * It will issue queries on the network again if the number of answers drops below
470 * this threshold.
471 * This flag is for Apple internal use only. Third party developers
472 * should not rely on this behavior being supported in any given software release.
474 * When kDNSServiceFlagsThresholdReached is set in the client callback add or remove event,
475 * it indicates that the browse answer threshold has been reached and no
476 * browse requests will be generated on the network until the number of answers falls
477 * below the threshold value. Add and remove events can still occur based
478 * on incoming Bonjour traffic observed by the system.
479 * The set of services return to the client is not guaranteed to represent the
480 * entire set of services present on the network once the threshold has been reached.
482 * Note, while kDNSServiceFlagsThresholdReached and kDNSServiceFlagsThresholdOne
483 * have the same value, there isn't a conflict because kDNSServiceFlagsThresholdReached
484 * is only set in the callbacks and kDNSServiceFlagsThresholdOne is only set on
485 * input to a DNSServiceBrowse call.
487 kDNSServiceFlagsDenyCellular = 0x8000000,
489 * This flag is meaningful only for Unicast DNS queries. When set, the kernel will restrict
490 * DNS resolutions on the cellular interface for that request.
493 kDNSServiceFlagsServiceIndex = 0x10000000,
495 * This flag is meaningful only for DNSServiceGetAddrInfo() for Unicast DNS queries.
496 * When set, DNSServiceGetAddrInfo() will interpret the "interfaceIndex" argument of the call
497 * as the "serviceIndex".
500 kDNSServiceFlagsDenyExpensive = 0x20000000,
502 * This flag is meaningful only for Unicast DNS queries. When set, the kernel will restrict
503 * DNS resolutions on interfaces defined as expensive for that request.
506 kDNSServiceFlagsPathEvaluationDone = 0x40000000
508 * This flag is meaningful for only Unicast DNS queries.
509 * When set, it indicates that Network PathEvaluation has already been performed.

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

1059 * Other parameters are undefined if errorCode is nonzero.
1061 * name: The service name registered (if the application did not specify a name in
1062 * DNSServiceRegister(), this indicates what name was automatically chosen).
1064 * regtype: The type of service registered, as it was passed to the callout.
1066 * domain: The domain on which the service was registered (if the application did not
1067 * specify a domain in DNSServiceRegister(), this indicates the default domain

1086 /* DNSServiceRegister() Parameters:
1088 * sdRef: A pointer to an uninitialized DNSServiceRef. If the call succeeds
1089 * then it initializes the DNSServiceRef, returns kDNSServiceErr_NoError,
1090 * and the registration will remain active indefinitely until the client
1091 * terminates it by passing this DNSServiceRef to DNSServiceRefDeallocate().
1093 * interfaceIndex: If non-zero, specifies the interface on which to register the service
1094 * (the index for a given interface is determined via the if_nametoindex()
1095 * family of calls.) Most applications will pass 0 to register on all
1096 * available interfaces. See "Constants for specifying an interface index" for more details.
1098 * flags: Indicates the renaming behavior on name conflict (most applications
1099 * will pass 0). See flag definitions above for details.
1101 * name: If non-NULL, specifies the service name to be registered.
1102 * Most applications will not specify a name, in which case the computer
1103 * name is used (this name is communicated to the client via the callback).
1104 * If a name is specified, it must be 1-63 bytes of UTF-8 text.
1105 * If the name is longer than 63 bytes it will be automatically truncated
1106 * to a legal length, unless the NoAutoRename flag is set,
1107 * in which case kDNSServiceErr_BadParam will be returned.
1109 * regtype: The service type followed by the protocol, separated by a dot
1110 * (e.g. "_ftp._tcp"). The service type must be an underscore, followed
1111 * by 1-15 characters, which may be letters, digits, or hyphens.
1112 * The transport protocol must be "_tcp" or "_udp". New service types
1113 * should be registered at <http://www.dns-sd.org/ServiceTypes.html>.
1115 * Additional subtypes of the primary service type (where a service
1116 * type has defined subtypes) follow the primary service type in a
1117 * comma-separated list, with no additional spaces, e.g.
1118 * "_primarytype._tcp,_subtype1,_subtype2,_subtype3"
1119 * Subtypes provide a mechanism for filtered browsing: A client browsing
1120 * for "_primarytype._tcp" will discover all instances of this type;
1121 * a client browsing for "_primarytype._tcp,_subtype2" will discover only
1122 * those instances that were registered with "_subtype2" in their list of
1123 * registered subtypes.
1125 * The subtype mechanism can be illustrated with some examples using the
1126 * dns-sd command-line tool:
1128 * % dns-sd -R Simple _test._tcp "" 1001 &
1129 * % dns-sd -R Better _test._tcp,HasFeatureA "" 1002 &
1130 * % dns-sd -R Best _test._tcp,HasFeatureA,HasFeatureB "" 1003 &
1132 * Now:
1133 * % dns-sd -B _test._tcp # will find all three services
1134 * % dns-sd -B _test._tcp,HasFeatureA # finds "Better" and "Best"
1135 * % dns-sd -B _test._tcp,HasFeatureB # finds only "Best"
1137 * Subtype labels may be up to 63 bytes long, and may contain any eight-
1138 * bit byte values, including zero bytes. However, due to the nature of
1139 * using a C-string-based API, conventional DNS escaping must be used for
1140 * dots ('.'), commas (','), backslashes ('\') and zero bytes, as shown below:
1142 * % dns-sd -R Test '_test._tcp,s\.one,s\,two,s\\three,s\000four' local 123
1144 * When a service is registered, all the clients browsing for the registered
1145 * type ("regtype") will discover it. If the discovery should be
1146 * restricted to a smaller set of well known peers, the service can be
1147 * registered with additional data (group identifier) that is known
1148 * only to a smaller set of peers. The group identifier should follow primary
1149 * service type using a colon (":") as a delimeter. If subtypes are also present,
1150 * it should be given before the subtype as shown below.
1152 * % dns-sd -R _test1 _http._tcp:mygroup1 local 1001
1153 * % dns-sd -R _test2 _http._tcp:mygroup2 local 1001
1154 * % dns-sd -R _test3 _http._tcp:mygroup3,HasFeatureA local 1001
1156 * Now:
1157 * % dns-sd -B _http._tcp:"mygroup1" # will discover only test1
1158 * % dns-sd -B _http._tcp:"mygroup2" # will discover only test2
1159 * % dns-sd -B _http._tcp:"mygroup3",HasFeatureA # will discover only test3
1161 * By specifying the group information, only the members of that group are
1162 * discovered.
1164 * The group identifier itself is not sent in clear. Only a hash of the group
1165 * identifier is sent and the clients discover them anonymously. The group identifier
1166 * may be up to 256 bytes long and may contain any eight bit values except comma which
1167 * should be escaped.
1169 * domain: If non-NULL, specifies the domain on which to advertise the service.
1170 * Most applications will not specify a domain, instead automatically
1171 * registering in the default domain(s).
1173 * host: If non-NULL, specifies the SRV target host name. Most applications
1174 * will not specify a host, instead automatically using the machine's
1175 * default host name(s). Note that specifying a non-NULL host does NOT
1176 * create an address record for that host - the application is responsible
1177 * for ensuring that the appropriate address record exists, or creating it
1178 * via DNSServiceRegisterRecord().
1180 * port: The port, in network byte order, on which the service accepts connections.
1181 * Pass 0 for a "placeholder" service (i.e. a service that will not be discovered
1182 * by browsing, but will cause a name conflict if another client tries to
1183 * register that same name). Most clients will not use placeholder services.
1185 * txtLen: The length of the txtRecord, in bytes. Must be zero if the txtRecord is NULL.
1187 * txtRecord: The TXT record rdata. A non-NULL txtRecord MUST be a properly formatted DNS
1188 * TXT record, i.e. <length byte> <data> <length byte> <data> ...
1189 * Passing NULL for the txtRecord is allowed as a synonym for txtLen=1, txtRecord="",
1190 * i.e. it creates a TXT record of length one containing a single empty string.
1191 * RFC 1035 doesn't allow a TXT record to contain *zero* strings, so a single empty
1192 * string is the smallest legal DNS TXT record.
1193 * As with the other parameters, the DNSServiceRegister call copies the txtRecord
1194 * data; e.g. if you allocated the storage for the txtRecord parameter with malloc()
1195 * then you can safely free that memory right after the DNSServiceRegister call returns.
1197 * callBack: The function to be called when the registration completes or asynchronously
1198 * fails. The client MAY pass NULL for the callback - The client will NOT be notified
1199 * of the default values picked on its behalf, and the client will NOT be notified of any
1200 * asynchronous errors (e.g. out of memory errors, etc.) that may prevent the registration
1201 * of the service. The client may NOT pass the NoAutoRename flag if the callback is NULL.
1202 * The client may still deregister the service at any time via DNSServiceRefDeallocate().
1204 * context: An application context pointer which is passed to the callback function
1205 * (may be NULL).
1207 * return value: Returns kDNSServiceErr_NoError on success (any subsequent, asynchronous
1208 * errors are delivered to the callback), otherwise returns an error code indicating
1209 * the error that occurred (the callback is never invoked and the DNSServiceRef
1210 * is not initialized).

1976 /* DNSServiceNATPortMappingCreate
1978 * Request a port mapping in the NAT gateway, which maps a port on the local machine
1979 * to an external port on the NAT. The NAT should support either PCP, NAT-PMP or the

1981 * currently supports IPv4 addresses/mappings only. If the NAT gateway supports PCP and
1982 * returns an IPv6 address (incorrectly, since this API specifically requests IPv4
1983 * addresses), the DNSServiceNATPortMappingReply callback will be invoked with errorCode
1984 * kDNSServiceErr_NATPortMappingUnsupported.
1986 * The port mapping will be renewed indefinitely until the client process exits, or
1987 * explicitly terminates the port mapping request by calling DNSServiceRefDeallocate().
1988 * The client callback will be invoked, informing the client of the NAT gateway's
1989 * external IP address and the external port that has been allocated for this client.
1990 * The client should then record this external IP address and port using whatever
1991 * directory service mechanism it is using to enable peers to connect to it.
1992 * (Clients advertising services using Wide-Area DNS-SD DO NOT need to use this API
1993 * -- when a client calls DNSServiceRegister() NAT mappings are automatically created
1994 * and the external IP address and port for the service are recorded in the global DNS.
1995 * Only clients using some directory mechanism other than Wide-Area DNS-SD need to use
1996 * this API to explicitly map their own ports.)
1998 * It's possible that the client callback could be called multiple times, for example
1999 * if the NAT gateway's IP address changes, or if a configuration change results in a
2000 * different external port being mapped for this client. Over the lifetime of any long-lived
2001 * port mapping, the client should be prepared to handle these notifications of changes
2002 * in the environment, and should update its recorded address and/or port as appropriate.
2004 * NOTE: There are two unusual aspects of how the DNSServiceNATPortMappingCreate API works,
2005 * which were intentionally designed to help simplify client code:
2007 * 1. It's not an error to request a NAT mapping when the machine is not behind a NAT gateway.
2008 * In other NAT mapping APIs, if you request a NAT mapping and the machine is not behind a NAT
2009 * gateway, then the API returns an error code -- it can't get you a NAT mapping if there's no
2010 * NAT gateway. The DNSServiceNATPortMappingCreate API takes a different view. Working out
2011 * whether or not you need a NAT mapping can be tricky and non-obvious, particularly on
2012 * a machine with multiple active network interfaces. Rather than make every client recreate
2013 * this logic for deciding whether a NAT mapping is required, the PortMapping API does that
2014 * work for you. If the client calls the PortMapping API when the machine already has a
2015 * routable public IP address, then instead of complaining about it and giving an error,
2016 * the PortMapping API just invokes your callback, giving the machine's public address
2017 * and your own port number. This means you don't need to write code to work out whether
2018 * your client needs to call the PortMapping API -- just call it anyway, and if it wasn't
2019 * necessary, no harm is done:
2021 * - If the machine already has a routable public IP address, then your callback
2022 * will just be invoked giving your own address and port.
2023 * - If a NAT mapping is required and obtained, then your callback will be invoked
2024 * giving you the external address and port.
2025 * - If a NAT mapping is required but not obtained from the local NAT gateway,
2026 * or the machine has no network connectivity, then your callback will be
2027 * invoked giving zero address and port.
2029 * 2. In other NAT mapping APIs, if a laptop computer is put to sleep and woken up on a new
2030 * network, it's the client's job to notice this, and work out whether a NAT mapping
2031 * is required on the new network, and make a new NAT mapping request if necessary.
2032 * The DNSServiceNATPortMappingCreate API does this for you, automatically.
2033 * The client just needs to make one call to the PortMapping API, and its callback will
2034 * be invoked any time the mapping state changes. This property complements point (1) above.
2035 * If the client didn't make a NAT mapping request just because it determined that one was
2036 * not required at that particular moment in time, the client would then have to monitor
2037 * for network state changes to determine if a NAT port mapping later became necessary.
2038 * By unconditionally making a NAT mapping request, even when a NAT mapping not to be
2039 * necessary, the PortMapping API will then begin monitoring network state changes on behalf of
2040 * the client, and if a NAT mapping later becomes necessary, it will automatically create a NAT
2041 * mapping and inform the client with a new callback giving the new address and port information.

2403 * if (TXTRecordContainsKey(txtLen, txtRecord, "key")) then do something
2404 * val1ptr = TXTRecordGetValuePtr(txtLen, txtRecord, "key1", &len1);

2409 * ...

2412 * If you wish to retain the values after return from the DNSServiceResolve()
2413 * callback, then you need to copy the data to your own storage using memcpy()
2414 * or similar, as shown in the example above.
2416 * If for some reason you need to parse a TXT record you built yourself
2417 * using the TXT record construction functions above, then you can do
2418 * that using TXTRecordGetLength and TXTRecordGetBytesPtr calls:
2419 * TXTRecordGetValue(TXTRecordGetLength(x), TXTRecordGetBytesPtr(x), key, &len);
2421 * Most applications only fetch keys they know about from a TXT record and
2422 * ignore the rest.

2424 * To do that, use the TXTRecordGetCount() and TXTRecordGetItemAtIndex() calls.

2550 * DNSServiceSetDispatchQueue
2552 * Allows you to schedule a DNSServiceRef on a serial dispatch queue for receiving asynchronous
2553 * callbacks. It's the clients responsibility to ensure that the provided dispatch queue is running.
2555 * A typical application that uses CFRunLoopRun or dispatch_main on its main thread will
2556 * usually schedule DNSServiceRefs on its main queue (which is always a serial queue)
2557 * using "DNSServiceSetDispatchQueue(sdref, dispatch_get_main_queue());"
2559 * If there is any error during the processing of events, the application callback will
2560 * be called with an error code. For shared connections, each subordinate DNSServiceRef
2561 * will get its own error callback. Currently these error callbacks only happen
2562 * if the daemon is manually terminated or crashes, and the error
2563 * code in this case is kDNSServiceErr_ServiceNotRunning. The application must call
2564 * DNSServiceRefDeallocate to free the DNSServiceRef when it gets such an error code.
2565 * These error callbacks are rare and should not normally happen on customer machines,
2566 * but application code should be written defensively to handle such error callbacks
2567 * gracefully if they occur.
2569 * After using DNSServiceSetDispatchQueue on a DNSServiceRef, calling DNSServiceProcessResult
2570 * on the same DNSServiceRef will result in undefined behavior and should be avoided.
2572 * Once the application successfully schedules a DNSServiceRef on a serial dispatch queue using
2573 * DNSServiceSetDispatchQueue, it cannot remove the DNSServiceRef from the dispatch queue, or use
2574 * DNSServiceSetDispatchQueue a second time to schedule the DNSServiceRef onto a different serial dispatch
2575 * queue. Once scheduled onto a dispatch queue a DNSServiceRef will deliver events to that queue until
2576 * the application no longer requires that operation and terminates it using DNSServiceRefDeallocate.

2581 * queue: dispatch queue where the application callback will be scheduled
2583 * return value: Returns kDNSServiceErr_NoError on success.

2585 * Returns kDNSServiceErr_BadParam if the service param is invalid or the
