The function returns an unique identifier for the client, as ip:port for
IPv4 and IPv6 clients, or as path:0 for Unix socket clients.
See the top comment in the function for more info.
IPv6 support is not going to use IPv6 specific options, just it will be
possible to specify all the ipv4 / ipv6 addresses of the interfaces to
bind, otherwise connections will be accepted from all the interfaces in
both IPv4 and IPv6 addresses.
This reverts commit 93570e179e.
This has been done by exposing the anetSockName() function anet.c
to be used when the sentinel is publishing its existence to the masters.
This implementation is very unintelligent as it will likely break if used
with IPv6 as the nested colons will break any parsing of the PUBLISH string
by the master.
Any places which I feel might want to be updated to work differently
with IPv6 have been marked with a comment starting "IPV6:".
Currently the only comments address places where an IP address is
combined with a port using the standard : separated form. These may want
to be changed when printing IPv6 addresses to wrap the address in []
such as
[2001:db8::c0:ffee]:6379
instead of
2001:db8::c0:ffee:6379
as the latter format is a technically valid IPv6 address and it is hard
to distinguish the IPv6 address component from the port unless you know
the port is supposed to be there.
In two places buffers have been created with a size of 128 bytes which
could be reduced to INET6_ADDRSTRLEN to still hold a full IP address.
These places have been marked as they are presently big enough to handle
the needs of storing a printable IPv6 address.
Changes the sockaddr_in to a sockaddr_storage. Attempts to convert the
IP address into an AF_INET or AF_INET6 before returning an "Invalid IP
address" error. Handles converting the sockaddr from either AF_INET or
AF_INET6 back into a string for storage in the clusterNode ip field.
Change the sockaddr_in to sockaddr_storage which is capable of storing
both AF_INET and AF_INET6 sockets. Uses the sockaddr_storage ss_family
to correctly return the printable IP address and port.
Function makes the assumption that the buffer is of at least
REDIS_CLUSTER_IPLEN bytes in size.

both AF_INET and AF_INET6 sockets. Uses the sockaddr_storage ss_family
to correctly return the printable IP address and port.
Change the sockaddr_in to sockaddr_storage which is capable of storing

Change the getaddrinfo(3) hints family from AF_INET to AF_UNSPEC to
allow resolution of IPv6 addresses as well as IPv4 addresses. The
function will return the IP address of whichever address family is
preferenced by the operating system. Most current operating systems
will preference AF_INET6 over AF_INET.
Unfortunately without attempting to establish a connection to the
remote address we can't know if the host is capable of using the
returned IP address. It might be desirable to have anetResolve
accept an additional argument specifying the AF_INET/AF_INET6 address
the caller would like to receive. Currently though it does not appear
as though the anetResolve function is ever used within Redis.
Add REDIS_CLUSTER_IPLEN macro to define the size of the clusterNode ip
character array. Additionally use this macro in inet_ntop(3) calls where
the size of the array was being defined manually.
The REDIS_CLUSTER_IPLEN is defined as INET_ADDRSTRLEN which defines the
correct size of a buffer to store an IPv4 address in. The
INET_ADDRSTRLEN macro itself is defined in the <netinet/in.h> header
file and should be portable across the majority of systems.
Using sizeof with an array will only return expected results if the
array is created in the scope of the function where sizeof is used. This
commit changes the inet_ntop calls so that they use the fixed buffer
value as defined in redis.h which is 16.
Replace inet_ntoa(3) calls with the more future proof inet_ntop(3)
function which is capable of handling additional address families.
API Change: anetTcpAccept() & anetPeerToString() additional argument
additional argument required to specify the length of the character
buffer the IP address is written to in order to comply with
inet_ntop(3) function semantics.
Change anetTcpServer() function to use getaddrinfo(3) to perform
address resolution, socket creation and binding. Resolved addresses
are limited to those reachable by the AF_INET address family.
Change anetTcpGenericConnect() function to use getaddrinfo(3) to
perform address resolution, socket creation and connection. Resolved
addresses are limited to those reachable by the AF_INET family.
Change anetResolve() function to use getaddrinfo(3) to resolve hostnames.
Resolved hostnames are limited to those reachable by the AF_INET address
family.
API Change: anetResolve requires additional argument.
additional argument required to specify the length of the character
buffer the IP address is written to in order to comply with
inet_ntop(3) function semantics. inet_ntop(3) replaces inet_ntoa(3)
as it has been designed to be compatible with more address families.
Bind() can't be called multiple times against the same socket, multiple
sockets are required to bind multiple interfaces, silly me.
