+.Nd retrieve DNS records
+.Sh SYNOPSIS
+.Fd #include <netdb.h>
+.Ft int
+.Fn getrrsetbyname "const char *hostname" "unsigned int rdclass" \
+"unsigned int rdtype" "unsigned int flags" "struct rrsetinfo **res"
+.Ft int
+.Fn freerrset "struct rrsetinfo **rrset"
+.Sh DESCRIPTION
+.Fn getrrsetbyname
+gets a set of resource records associated with a
+.Fa hostname ,
+.Fa class
+and
+.Fa type .
+.Fa hostname
+is a pointer a to null-terminated string.
+The
+.Fa flags
+field is currently unused and must be zero.
+.Pp
+After a successful call to
+.Fn getrrsetbyname ,
+.Fa *res
+is a pointer to an
+.Li rrsetinfo
+structure, containing a list of one or more
+.Li rdatainfo
+structures containing resource records and potentially another list of
+.Li rdatainfo
+structures containing SIG resource records associated with those records.
+The members
+.Li rri_rdclass
+and
+.Li rri_rdtype
+are copied from the parameters.
+.Li rri_ttl
+and
+.Li rri_name
+are properties of the obtained rrset.
+The resource records contained in
+.Li rri_rdatas
+and
+.Li rri_sigs
+are in uncompressed DNS wire format.
+Properties of the rdataset are represented in the
+.Li rri_flags
+bitfield. If the
+.Dv RRSET_VALIDATED
+bit is set, the data has been DNSSEC
+validated and the signatures verified. 
+.Pp
+The following structures are used:
+.Bd -literal -offset
+struct  rdatainfo {
+        unsigned int            rdi_length;     /* length of data */
+        unsigned char           *rdi_data;      /* record data */
+};
+
+struct  rrsetinfo {
+        unsigned int            rri_flags;      /* RRSET_VALIDATED ... */
+        unsigned int            rri_rdclass;    /* class number */
+        unsigned int            rri_rdtype;     /* RR type number */
+        unsigned int            rri_ttl;        /* time to live */
+        unsigned int            rri_nrdatas;    /* size of rdatas array */
+        unsigned int            rri_nsigs;      /* size of sigs array */
+        char                    *rri_name;      /* canonical name */
+        struct rdatainfo        *rri_rdatas;    /* individual records */
+        struct rdatainfo        *rri_sigs;      /* individual signatures */
+};
+.Ed
+.Pp
+All of the information returned by
+.Fn getrrsetbyname
+is dynamically allocated: the
+.Li rrsetinfo
+and
+.Li rdatainfo
+structures,
+and the canonical host name strings pointed to by the
+.Li rrsetinfostructure.
+Memory allocated for the dynamically allocated structures created by
+a successful call to
+.Fn getrrsetbyname
+is released by
+.Fn freerrset .
+.Li rrset
+is a pointer to a
+.Li struct rrset
+created by a call to
+.Fn getrrsetbyname .
+.Pp
+If the EDNS0 option is activated in
+.Xr resolv.conf 3 ,
+.Fn getrrsetbyname
+will request DNSSEC authentication using the EDNS0 DNSSEC OK (DO) bit.
+.Sh "RETURN VALUES"
+.Fn getrrsetbyname
+returns zero on success, and one of the following error
+codes if an error occurred:
+.Pp
+.Bl -tag -width ERRSET_NOMEMORY -compact
+.It Dv ERRSET_NONAME
+the name does not exist
+.It Dv ERRSET_NODATA
+the name exists, but does not have data of the desired type
+.It Dv ERRSET_NOMEMORY
+memory could not be allocated
+.It Dv ERRSET_INVAL
+a parameter is invalid
+.It Dv ERRSET_FAIL
+other failure

+.Sh HISTORY
+.Nm
+first appeared in
+.Ox 3.0 .
+.Sh BUGS
+The data in
+.Li *rdi_data
+should be returned in uncompressed wire format.
+Currently, the data is in compressed format and the caller can't
+uncompress since it doesn't have the full message.
