Define ENONAMESERVICE to indicate "Network name service unavailable".
This can be used to indicate, for example, that an attempt was made by
dns_query() to make a query, but the name server (e.g. a DNS server) it is
supposed to contact didn't answer or that it couldn't determine the
location of a suitable server.
Are these in glibc and are there glibc patches submitted and accepted for
this ?
No.
Are you saying that I should push them through glibc first - and then submit
them to the kernel? Does the kernel lead or the C library? And, if the
latter, which C library? Can I not, for instance, push them through uclibc,
say?
Does submitting to glibc mean I have to sign my copyrights over to the FSF for
that code? I've never gone through this process.
