 * Name: gethostbyname_r
 *
 * Description:
 *   The gethostbyname_r() function returns a structure of type hostent for
 *   the given host name. Here name is either a hostname, or an IPv4 address
 *   in standard dot notation (as for inet_addr(3)), or an IPv6 address in
 *   colon (and possibly dot) notation.
 *
 *   If name is an IPv4 or IPv6 address, no lookup is performed and
 *   gethostbyname_r() simply copies name into the h_name field
 *   and its struct in_addr equivalent into the h_addr_list[0] field of the
 *   returned hostent structure.
 *
 *   gethostname_r() is *not* POSIX but is similar to a Glibc extension and
 *   is used internally by NuttX to implement the POSIX gethostname().
 *
 * Input Parameters:
 *   name - The name of the host to find.
 *   host - Caller provided location to return the host data.
 *   buf - Caller provided buffer to hold string data associated with the
 *     host data.
 *   buflen - The size of the caller-provided buffer
 *   result - There host entry returned in the event of a success.
 *   h_errnop - There h_errno value returned in the event of a failure.
 *
 * Returned Value:
 *   Zero (OK) is returned on success, -1 (ERROR) is returned on a failure
 *   with the returned h_errno value provided the reason for the failure.
