@ -1216,6 +1216,17 @@ either @code{AF_INET} or @code{AF_INET6}, as appropriate for the type of
address being converted. @var{cp} is a pointer to the input string, and
@var{buf} is a pointer to a buffer for the result. It is the caller's
responsibility to make sure the buffer is large enough.
The return value is @code{1} on success and @code{0} if @var{cp} does not
point to a valid address string for the address family @var{af} requested.
On failure, the function's return value is @code{-1} and @code{errno} is
set accordingly. The following @code{errno} values are specific to this
function:
@table @code
@item EAFNOSUPPORT
The address family requested is neither @code{AF_INET} nor @code{AF_INET6}.

@end deftypefun
@deftypefun {const char *} inet_ntop (int @var{af}, const void *@var{cp}, char *@var{buf}, socklen_t @var{len})
