(Added in 7.19.4). Pass a char * as parameter. This sets the interface name to use as outgoing network interface. The name can be an interface name, an IP address, or a host name. + +Starting with 7.24.0: If the parameter starts with "if!" then it is treated as +only as interface name and no attempt will ever be named to do treat it as an +IP address or to do name resolution on it. If the parameter starts with +\&"host!" it is treated as either an IP address or a hostname. Hostnames are +resolved synchronously. Using the if! format is highly recommended when using +the multi interfaces to avoid allowing the code to block. If "if!" is +specified but the parameter does not match an existing interface, +CURLE_INTERFACE_FAILED is returned. .IP CURLOPT_LOCALPORT Pass a long. This sets the local port number of the socket used for connection. This can be used in combination with \fICURLOPT_INTERFACE\fP and diff --git a/lib/connect.c b/lib/connect.c index af225ab83..906fd9d18 100644 --- a/lib/connect.c +++ b/lib/connect.c @@ -240,6 +240,10 @@ static CURLcode bindlocal(struct connectdata *conn, int error; char myhost[256] = ""; int done = 0; /* -1 for error, 1 for address found */ + int is_interface = FALSE; + int is_host = FALSE; + static const char *if_prefix = "if!"; + static const char *host_prefix = "host!"; /************************************************************* * Select device to bind socket to @@ -251,9 +255,20 @@ static CURLcode bindlocal(struct connectdata *conn, memset(&sa, 0, sizeof(struct Curl_sockaddr_storage)); if(dev && (strlen(dev)<255) ) { + if(strncmp(if_prefix, dev, strlen(if_prefix)) == 0) { + dev += strlen(if_prefix); + is_interface = TRUE; + } + else if(strncmp(host_prefix, dev, strlen(host_prefix)) == 0) { + dev += strlen(host_prefix); + is_host = TRUE; + } /* interface */ - if(Curl_if2ip(af, dev, myhost, sizeof(myhost))) { + if(!is_host && (is_interface || Curl_if_is_interface_name(dev))) { + if(Curl_if2ip(af, dev, myhost, sizeof(myhost)) == NULL) + return CURLE_INTERFACE_FAILED; + /* * We now have the numerical IP address in the 'myhost' buffer */ diff --git a/lib/if2ip.c b/lib/if2ip.c index 4924f7301..0ae375b15 100644 --- a/lib/if2ip.c +++ b/lib/if2ip.c @@ -71,6 +71,24 @@ #if defined(HAVE_GETIFADDRS) +bool Curl_if_is_interface_name(const char *interface) +{ + bool result = FALSE; + + struct ifaddrs *iface, *head; + + if(getifaddrs(&head) >= 0) { + for(iface=head; iface != NULL; iface=iface->ifa_next) { + if(curl_strequal(iface->ifa_name, interface)) { + result = TRUE; + break; + } + } + freeifaddrs(head); + } + return result; +} + char *Curl_if2ip(int af, const char *interface, char *buf, int buf_size) { struct ifaddrs *iface, *head; @@ -109,6 +127,14 @@ char *Curl_if2ip(int af, const char *interface, char *buf, int buf_size) #elif defined(HAVE_IOCTL_SIOCGIFADDR) +bool Curl_if_is_interface_name(const char *interface) +{ + /* This is here just to support the old interfaces */ + char buf[256]; + + return (Curl_if2ip(AF_INET, interface, buf, sizeof(buf)) != NULL); +} + char *Curl_if2ip(int af, const char *interface, char *buf, int buf_size) { struct ifreq req; @@ -148,6 +174,11 @@ char *Curl_if2ip(int af, const char *interface, char *buf, int buf_size) #else +bool Curl_if_is_interface_name(const char *interface) +{ + return FALSE; +} + char *Curl_if2ip(int af, const char *interf, char *buf, int buf_size) { (void) af; diff --git a/lib/if2ip.h b/lib/if2ip.h index cdf2638ae..678e3a556 100644 --- a/lib/if2ip.h +++ b/lib/if2ip.h @@ -23,6 +23,7 @@ ***************************************************************************/ #include "setup.h" +extern bool Curl_if_is_interface_name(const char *interface); extern char *Curl_if2ip(int af, const char *interf, char *buf, int buf_size); #ifdef __INTERIX |
