Describing the results placed into the returned addrinfo struct: The members .IR ai_family , .IR ai_socktype , and .I ai_protocol have the same meaning as the corresponding parameters in the .BR socket (2) system call. Then, two paragraphs later: .IR ai_family , .IR ai_socktype , and .I ai_protocol specify the socket creation parameters.Even those the immediately preceding sentence refers to the hints input parameter, this sentence seems to refer to the output addrinfo struct again, and just restates the description given two paragraphs earlier.
