inet6_rth_reverse(3)

NAME

inet6_rth_reverse - Reverse the order of addresses in an IPv6 Routing header

SYNOPSIS

#include <netinet/ip6.h> int inet6_rth_reverse( const void *in, void *out );

LIBRARY

Standard C Library (libc)

PARAMETERS

in Points to a buffer that contains an IPv6 Routing header. out Points to a buffer that is to contain the Routing header with the reversed addresses. This parameter can point to the same buffer specified by in.

DESCRIPTION

The inet6_rth_reverse() function reads an IPv6 Routing header and writes a new Routing header, reversing the order of addresses in the new header. The in and out parameters can point to the same buffer. The function sets the ip60r_segleft member in the ip6_rthdr0 structure to the number of segments (addresses) in the new header. The ip6_rthdr0 structure is defined in netinet/ip6.h.

RETURN VALUES

Upon successful completion, the inet6_rth_reverse() function returns 0 (zero). Upon failure, it returns a -1.
