core.sys.darwin.ifaddrs

Binding for Mac OSX's <ifaddr.h>, expose network interface addresses

The following functions are present as of Mac OSX 10.15:

  • getifaddrs(3): get interface addresses
  • freeifaddrs(3): deallocates the return value of getifaddrs
  • getifmaddrs(3): get multicast group membership
  • freeifmaddrs(3): deallocates the return value of getifmaddrs
