| Gnulib module: getsockname |
| |
| Portability problems fixed by Gnulib: |
| @itemize |
| @item |
| On Windows platforms (excluding Cygwin), error codes from this function |
| are not placed in @code{errno}, and @code{WSAGetLastError} must be used |
| instead. |
| @item |
| On HP-UX 11, in 64-bit mode, when the macro @code{_HPUX_ALT_XOPEN_SOCKET_API} |
| is not defined, this function behaves incorrectly because it is declared |
| to take a pointer to a 64-bit wide @code{socklen_t} entity but in fact |
| considers it as a pointer to a 32-bit wide @code{unsigned int} entity. |

| Portability problems not fixed by Gnulib: |
| @itemize |
| @item |
| Some platforms don't have a @code{socklen_t} type; in this case this function's |
| third argument type is @samp{int *}. |
| @end itemize |
