There are three ways to use this function in this patchset:
a. get IPv4 addresses by a hostname:
hints.ai_family = AF_INET;
hints.ai_protocol = IPPROTO_SCTP;
getaddrinfo(remote_host, NULL, &hints, &rp)
b. get IPv6 addresses by a hostname:
hints.ai_family = AF_INET6;
hints.ai_protocol = IPPROTO_SCTP;
getaddrinfo(remote_host, NULL, &hints, &rp)
c. get IPv4 and IPv6 addresses by a hostname:
hints.ai_family = AF_UNSPEC;
hints.ai_protocol = IPPROTO_SCTP;
getaddrinfo(remote_host, NULL, &hints, &rp)
Note ai_protocol = IPPROTO_SCTP is necessary, especially for case c.
Otherwise, it will return many addresses with different protocol(TCP, UDP...).
