addressing &out[k].sa was arguably undefined, despite &out[k] being
defined the slot one past the end of an array, since the member access
.sa is intervening between the [] operator and the & operator.

the backindex stored by getaddrinfo to allow freeaddrinfo to perform
partial-free wrongly used the address result index, rather than the
output slot index, and thus was only valid when they were equal
(nservs==1).
patch based on report with proposed fix by Markus Wichmann.

the specification for freeaddrinfo allows it to be used to free
"arbitrary sublists" of the list returned by getaddrinfo. it's not
clearly stated how such sublists come into existence, but the
interpretation seems to be that the application can edit the ai_next
pointers to cut off a portion of the list and then free it.
actual freeing of individual list slots is contrary to the design of
our getaddrinfo implementation, which has no failure paths after
making a single allocation, so that light callers can avoid linking
realloc/free. freeing individual slots is also incompatible with
sharing the string for ai_canonname, which the current implementation
does despite no requirement that it be present except on the first
result. so, rather than actually freeing individual slots, provide a
way to find the start of the allocated array, and reference-count it,
freeing the memory all at once after the last slot has been freed.
since the language in the spec is "arbitrary sublists", no provision
for handling other constructs like multiple lists glued together,
circular links, etc. is made. presumably passing such a construct to
freeaddrinfo produces undefined behavior.

despite not being documented to do so in the standard or Linux
documentation, attempts to udp connect to 127.0.0.1 or ::1 generate
EADDRNOTAVAIL when the loopback device is not configured and there is
no default route for IPv6. this caused getaddrinfo with AI_ADDRCONFIG
to fail with EAI_SYSTEM and EADDRNOTAVAIL on some no-IPv6
configurations, rather than the intended behavior of detecting IPv6 as
unsuppported and producing IPv4-only results.
previously, only EAFNOSUPPORT was treated as unavailability of the
address family being probed. instead, treat all errors related to
inability to get an address or route as conclusive that the family
being probed is unsupported, and only fail with EAI_SYSTEM on other
errors.
further improvements may be desirable, such as reporting EAI_AGAIN
instead of EAI_SYSTEM for errors which are expected to be transient,
but this patch should suffice to fix the serious regression.

this flag is notoriously under-/mis-specified, and in the past it was
implemented as a nop, essentially considering the absence of a
loopback interface with 127.0.0.1 and ::1 addresses an unsupported
configuration. however, common real-world container environments omit
IPv6 support (even for the network-namespaced loopback interface), and
some kernels omit IPv6 support entirely. future systems on the other
hand might omit IPv4 entirely.
treat these as supported configurations and suppress results of the
unconfigured/unsupported address families when AI_ADDRCONFIG is
requested. use routability of the loopback address to make the
determination; unlike other implementations, we do not exclude
loopback from the "an address is configured" condition, since there is
no basis in the specification for such exclusion. obtaining a result
with AI_ADDRCONFIG does not imply routability of the result, and
applications must still be able to cope with unroutable results even
if they pass AI_ADDRCONFIG.

this case is specified as a mandatory ("shall fail") error.

all socket types are accepted at this point, but that may be changed
at a later time if the behavior is not meaningful for other types. as
before, omitting type (a value of 0) gives both UDP and TCP results,
and SOCK_DGRAM or SOCK_STREAM restricts to UDP or TCP, respectively.
for other socket types, the service name argument is required to be a
null pointer, and the protocol number provided by the caller is used.

for all address types, a scope_id specified as a decimal value is
accepted. for addresses with link-local scope, a string containing the
interface name is also accepted.
some changes are made to error handling to avoid unwanted fallbacks in
the case where the scope_id is invalid: if an earlier name lookup
backend fails with an error rather than simply "0 results", this
failure now suppresses any later attempts with other backends.
in getnameinfo, a light "itoa" type function is added for generating
decimal scope_id results, and decimal port strings for services are
also generated using this function now so as not to pull in the
dependency on snprintf.
in netdb.h, a definition for the NI_NUMERICSCOPE flag is added. this
is required by POSIX (it was previously missing) and needed to allow
callers to suppress interface-name lookups.

this is the first phase of the "resolver overhaul" project.
conceptually, the results of getaddrinfo are a direct product of a
list of address results and a list of service results. the new code
makes this explicit by computing these lists separately and combining
the results. this adds support for services that have both tcp and udp
versions, where the caller has not specified which it wants, and
eliminates a number of duplicate code paths which were all producing
the final output addrinfo structures, but in subtly different ways,
making it difficult to implement any of the features which were
missing.
in addition to the above benefits, the refactoring allows for legacy
functions like gethostbyname to be implemented without using the
getaddrinfo function itself. such changes to the legacy functions have
not yet been made, however.
further improvements include matching of service alias names from
/etc/services (previously only the primary name was supported),
returning multiple results from /etc/hosts (previously only the first
matching line was honored), and support for the AI_V4MAPPED and AI_ALL
flags.
features which remain unimplemented are IDN translations (encoding
non-ASCII hostnames for DNS lookup) and the AI_ADDRCONFIG flag.
at this point, the DNS-based name resolving code is still based on the
old interfaces in __dns.c, albeit somewhat simpler in its use of them.
there may be some dead code which could already be removed, but
changes to this layer will be a later phase of the resolver overhaul.

subsequent code assumes the address family requested is either
unspecified or one of IPv4/IPv6, and could malfunction if this
constraint is not met, so other address families should be explicitly
rejected.

based on a patch by orc, with indexing and flow control cleaned up a
little bit. this code is all going to be replaced at some point in the
near future.

new behavior can be summarized as:
inputs that parse completely as a decimal number are treated as one,
and rejected only if the result is out of 16-bit range.
inputs that do not parse as a decimal number (where strtoul leaves
anything left over in the input) are searched in /etc/services.

to deal with the fact that the public headers may be used with pre-c99
compilers, __restrict is used in place of restrict, and defined
appropriately for any supported compiler. we also avoid the form
[restrict] since older versions of gcc rejected it due to a bug in the
original c99 standard, and instead use the form *restrict.

the buffer in getaddrinfo really only matters when /etc/hosts is huge,
but in that case, the huge number of syscalls resulting from a tiny
buffer would seriously impact the performance of every name lookup.
the buffer in __dns.c has also been enlarged a bit so that typical
resolv.conf files will fit fully in the buffer. there's no need to
make it so large as to dominate the syscall overhead for large files,
because resolv.conf should never be large.

per POSIX and RFC 3493:
If the specified address family is AF_INET, AF_INET6, or AF_UNSPEC,
the service can be specified as a string specifying a decimal port
number.
021 is a valid decimal number, therefore, interpreting it as octal
seems to be non-conformant.

previously NULL was returned in ai_canonname, resulting in crashes in
some callers. this behavior was incorrect. note however that the new
behavior differs from glibc, which performs reverse dns lookups. POSIX
is very clear that a reverse DNS lookup must not be performed for
numeric addresses.

sadly the C language does not specify any such implicit conversion, so
this is not a matter of just fixing warnings (as gcc treats it) but
actual errors. i would like to revisit a number of these changes and
possibly revise the types used to reduce the number of casts required.
