Functions

static void dns_recv (void *arg, struct udp_pcb *pcb, struct pbuf *p, ip_addr_t *addr, u16_t port)

 Initialize one of the DNS servers.
ip_addr_t dns_getserver (u8_t numdns)
 Obtain one of the currently configured DNS server.
void dns_tmr (void)
 The DNS resolver client timer - handle retries and timeouts and should be called every DNS_TMR_INTERVAL milliseconds (every second by default).

Function Documentation

static void dns_check_entries ( void   ) [static]

Call dns_check_entry for each entry in dns_table - check all entries.

Definition at line 718 of file dns.c.

static void dns_check_entry ( u8_t  i ) [static]

dns_check_entry() - see if pEntry has not yet been queried and, if so, sends out a query.

Check an entry in the dns_table:

  • send out query for new entries
  • retry old pending entries on timeout (also with different servers)
  • remove completed entries from the table if their TTL has expired
Parameters:
iindex of the dns_table entry to check

Definition at line 636 of file dns.c.

static u8_t dns_compare_name ( unsigned char *  query,
unsigned char *  response 
) [static]

Compare the "dotted" name "query" with the encoded name "response" to make sure an answer from the DNS server matches the current dns_table entry (otherwise, answers might arrive late for hostname not on the list any more).

Parameters:
queryhostname (not encoded) from the dns_table
responseencoded hostname in the DNS response
Returns:
0: names equal; 1: names differ

See also:
RFC 1035 - 4.1.4. Message compression

Definition at line 493 of file dns.c.

static err_t dns_enqueue ( const char *  name,
dns_found_callback  found,
void *  callback_arg 
) [static]

Queues a new hostname to resolve and sends out a DNS query for that hostname.

Parameters:
namethe hostname that is to be queried
founda callback founction to be called on success, failure or timeout
callback_argargument to pass to the callback function
Returns:
a err_t return code.

Definition at line 860 of file dns.c.

err_t dns_gethostbyname ( const char *  hostname,
ip_addr_t *  addr,
dns_found_callback  found,
void *  callback_arg 
)

Resolve a hostname (string) into an IP address.

NON-BLOCKING callback version for use with raw API!!!

Returns immediately with one of err_t return codes:

  • ERR_OK if hostname is a valid IP address string or the host name is already in the local names table.
  • ERR_INPROGRESS enqueue a request to be sent to the DNS server for resolution if no errors are present.
Parameters:
hostnamethe hostname that is to be queried
addrpointer to a ip_addr_t where to store the address if it is already cached in the dns_table (only valid if ERR_OK is returned!)
founda callback function to be called on success, failure or timeout (only if ERR_INPROGRESS is returned!)
callback_argargument to pass to the callback function
Returns:
a err_t return code.

Definition at line 935 of file dns.c.

ip_addr_t dns_getserver ( u8_t  numdns )

Obtain one of the currently configured DNS server.

Parameters:
numdnsthe index of the DNS server
Returns:
IP address of the indexed DNS server or "ip_addr_any" if the DNS server has not been configured.

Definition at line 289 of file dns.c.

void dns_init ( void   )

Initialize the resolver: set up the UDP pcb and configure the default server (DNS_SERVER_ADDRESS).

Definition at line 232 of file dns.c.

err_t dns_local_addhost ( const char *  hostname,
const ip_addr_t *  addr 
)

Add a hostname/IP address pair to the local host-list.

Duplicates are not checked.

Parameters:
hostnamehostname of the new entry
addrIP address of the new entry
Returns:
ERR_OK if succeeded or ERR_MEM on memory error

Definition at line 414 of file dns.c.

int dns_local_removehost ( const char *  hostname,
const ip_addr_t *  addr 
)

Remove all entries from the local host-list for a specific hostname and/or IP addess.

Parameters:
hostnamehostname for which entries shall be removed from the local host-list
addraddress for which entries shall be removed from the local host-list
Returns:
the number of removed entries

Definition at line 379 of file dns.c.

static u32_t dns_lookup ( const char *  name ) [static]

Look up a hostname in the array of known hostnames.

Note:
This function only looks in the internal array of known hostnames, it does not send out a query for the hostname if none was found. The function dns_enqueue() can be used to send a query for a hostname.
Parameters:
namethe hostname to look up
Returns:
the hostname's IP address, as u32_t (instead of ip_addr_t to better check for failure: != IPADDR_NONE) or IPADDR_NONE if the hostname was not found in the cached dns_table.

Definition at line 450 of file dns.c.

static u32_t dns_lookup_local ( const char *  hostname ) [static]

Scans the local host-list for a hostname.

Parameters:
hostnameHostname to look for in the local host-list
Returns:
The first IP address for the hostname in the local host-list or IPADDR_NONE if not found.

Definition at line 348 of file dns.c.

static unsigned char* dns_parse_name ( unsigned char *  query ) [static]

Walk through a compact encoded DNS name and return the end of the name.

Parameters:
queryencoded DNS name in the DNS server response
Returns:
end of the name

See also:
RFC 1035 - 4.1.4. Message compression

Definition at line 528 of file dns.c.

const char *  name,
u8_t  id

Send a DNS query packet.

Parameters:
numdnsindex of the DNS server in the dns_servers table
namehostname to query
idindex of the hostname in dns_table, used as transaction ID in the DNS query packet
Returns:
ERR_OK if packet is sent; an err_t indicating the problem otherwise
