+.SH "DESCRIPTION"
+.PP
+These are low\-level routines for creating and parsing lightweight resolver address\-to\-name lookup request and response messages.
+.PP
+There are four main functions for the getnamebyaddr opcode. One render function converts a getnamebyaddr request structure \(em
+\fBlwres_gnbarequest_t\fR
+\(em to the lightweight resolver's canonical format. It is complemented by a parse function that converts a packet in this canonical format to a getnamebyaddr request structure. Another render function converts the getnamebyaddr response structure \(em
+\fBlwres_gnbaresponse_t\fR
+to the canonical format. This is complemented by a parse function which converts a packet in canonical format to a getnamebyaddr response structure.
+.PP
+These structures are defined in
+\fIlwres/lwres.h\fR. They are shown below.

+\fBlwres_gnbarequest_render()\fR
+uses resolver context
+\fIctx\fR
+to convert getnamebyaddr request structure
+\fIreq\fR
+to canonical format. The packet header structure
+\fIpkt\fR
+is initialised and transferred to buffer
+\fIb\fR. The contents of
+\fI*req\fR
+are then appended to the buffer in canonical format.
+\fBlwres_gnbaresponse_render()\fR
+performs the same task, except it converts a getnamebyaddr response structure
+\fBlwres_gnbaresponse_t\fR
+to the lightweight resolver's canonical format.
+.PP
+\fBlwres_gnbarequest_parse()\fR
+uses context
+\fIctx\fR
+to convert the contents of packet
+\fIpkt\fR
+to a
+\fBlwres_gnbarequest_t\fR
+structure. Buffer
+\fIb\fR
+provides space to be used for storing this structure. When the function succeeds, the resulting
+\fBlwres_gnbarequest_t\fR
+is made available through
+\fI*structp\fR.
+\fBlwres_gnbaresponse_parse()\fR
+offers the same semantics as
+\fBlwres_gnbarequest_parse()\fR
+except it yields a
+\fBlwres_gnbaresponse_t\fR
+structure.
+.PP
+\fBlwres_gnbaresponse_free()\fR
+and
+\fBlwres_gnbarequest_free()\fR
+release the memory in resolver context
+\fIctx\fR
+that was allocated to the
+\fBlwres_gnbaresponse_t\fR
+or
+\fBlwres_gnbarequest_t\fR
+structures referenced via
+\fIstructp\fR. Any memory associated with ancillary buffers and strings for those structures is also discarded.
+.SH "RETURN VALUES"
+.PP
+The getnamebyaddr opcode functions
+\fBlwres_gnbarequest_render()\fR,
+\fBlwres_gnbaresponse_render()\fR
+\fBlwres_gnbarequest_parse()\fR
+and
+\fBlwres_gnbaresponse_parse()\fR
+all return
+\fBLWRES_R_SUCCESS\fR
+on success. They return
+\fBLWRES_R_NOMEMORY\fR
+if memory allocation fails.
+\fBLWRES_R_UNEXPECTEDEND\fR
+is returned if the available space in the buffer
+\fIb\fR
+is too small to accommodate the packet header or the
+\fBlwres_gnbarequest_t\fR
+and
+\fBlwres_gnbaresponse_t\fR
+structures.
+\fBlwres_gnbarequest_parse()\fR
+and
+\fBlwres_gnbaresponse_parse()\fR
+will return
+\fBLWRES_R_UNEXPECTEDEND\fR
+if the buffer is not empty after decoding the received packet. These functions will return
+\fBLWRES_R_FAILURE\fR
+if
+pktflags
+in the packet header structure
+\fBlwres_lwpacket_t\fR
+indicate that the packet is not a response to an earlier query.
