           Summary: declaration of getnameinfo() is not POSIX compliant
           Product: glibc
           Version: 2.13
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: libc
        AssignedTo: drepper.fsp@gmail.com
        ReportedBy: bruno@clisp.org


POSIX:2008 specifies the declaration of getnameinfo() in
http://pubs.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/9699919799/functions/getnameinfo.html
In particular, the last parameter should be an 'int'.

In glibc's <netdb.h>, the parameter is an 'unsigned int'. This leads to
a compilation error for POSIX compliant programs.

How to reproduce:
============================== foo.cc ==============================
#include <netdb.h>
int (*getnameinfo_ptr) (const struct sockaddr *sa, socklen_t salen,
                        char *node, socklen_t nodelen,
                        char *service, socklen_t servicelen,
                        int flags) = getnameinfo;
====================================================================
$ g++ -c foo.cc 
foo.cc:5: error: invalid conversion from ‘int (*)(const sockaddr*, socklen_t,
char*, socklen_t, char*, socklen_t, unsigned int)’ to ‘int (*)(const sockaddr*,
socklen_t, char*, socklen_t, char*, socklen_t, int)’

Attached is a probable fix (untested).

in which stable version of glibc is the fix first applied ?
i need to use the corresponding GLIBC version macros to make my program compile
on any platform.

i'm assuming from the date that the first fixed version is 2.14, which came out
~1month after the application to git.
please correct me if i'm mistaken.
