getaddrinfo() and SRV records.


I'm looking at the current glibc implementation of getaddrinfo() and it does not seem to support SRV records. It seems Microsoft and Apple (and BSD?) have enabled SRV record support.

Are there already plans to enable SRV record support in getaddrinfo()?

From my searching it appears like it would be a simple patch to enable SRV lookup support, because the api already allows the specification of the protocol(udp or tcp) and the service(http, imap, etc).

How can I help?
