Both POSIX and glibc use 'restrict' in getnameinfo(). Let's use it here too. I conciously did an exception with respect to the right margin of the rendered page. Instead of having the right margin at 78 as usual (per Branden's recommendation), I let it use col 79 this time, to avoid breaking the prototype in an ugly way. .../glibc$ grep_glibc_prototype getnameinfo resolv/netdb.h:675: extern int getnameinfo (const struct sockaddr *__restrict __sa, socklen_t __salen, char *__restrict __host, socklen_t __hostlen, char *__restrict __serv, socklen_t __servlen, int __flags); .../glibc$ Cc: G.
