2012-04-01	improve name lookup performance in corner cases	Rich Felker	-1/+1
	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.
2011-08-01	port numbers should always be interpreted as decimal	Rich Felker	-1/+1
	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.
2011-04-20	disallow blank strings as service or host name	Rich Felker	-0/+3

2011-04-08	return the requested string as the "canonical name" for numeric addresses	Rich Felker	-0/+1
	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.
2011-03-25	fix all implicit conversion between signed/unsigned pointers	Rich Felker	-1/+1
	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.
2011-02-12	initial check-in, version 0.5.0v0.5.0	Rich Felker	-0/+224
