Searches the hosts database that is referenced by the TCPIP$HOST
logical name for a host record with a given IPv4 address. If the
host record is not found there, the function may also invoke the
BIND resolver to query the appropriate name server.
The $QIO equivalent is the IO$_ACPCONTROL function with the
INETACP_FUNC$C_GETHOSTBYADDR subfunction code.
Format
#include <netdb.h>
struct hostent *gethostbyaddr ( const void *addr, size_t len,
int type );
