The Network.Socket.Data code previously used hardcoded constants manually read
from auto-generated C source code, however these constants are specific to
Linux. The original code looked like this:
export
ToCode SocketFamily where
-- Don't know how to read a constant value from C code in idris2...
-- gotta to hardcode those for now
toCode AF_UNSPEC = 0 -- unsafePerformIO (cMacro "#AF_UNSPEC" Int)
toCode AF_UNIX = 1
toCode AF_INET = 2
toCode AF_INET6 = 10
The AF_INET6 constant is correct on my Debian 10 laptop:
molly on flywheel ~> grep -rE '^#define AF_INET6' /usr/include
/usr/include/x86_64-linux-gnu/bits/socket.h:#define AF_INET6 PF_INET6
molly on flywheel ~> grep -rE '^#define PF_INET6' /usr/include
/usr/include/x86_64-linux-gnu/bits/socket.h:#define PF_INET6 10 /* IP version 6. */
However, this is not the case on an OpenBSD machine:
spanner# grep -rE '^#define[[:space:]]+AF_INET6' /usr/include
/usr/include/sys/socket.h:#define AF_INET6 24 /* IPv6 */
This commit adds accessor functions to the C runtime support library for
retrieving the values of these macros as they appear in the system libc header
files, which can then be invoked using the normal C FFI machinery.
