19 The ares_inet_ntop() function converts a numeric address into a text
20 string suitable for presentation. The af argument shall specify the
21 family of the address. This can be AF_INET or AF_INET6. The src argu‐
22 ment points to a buffer holding an IPv4 address if the af argument is
23 AF_INET, or an IPv6 address if the af argument is AF_INET6; the address
24 must be in network byte order. The dst argument points to a buffer
25 where the function stores the resulting text string; it shall not be
26 NULL. The size argument specifies the size of this buffer, which shall
27 be large enough to hold the text string (INET_ADDRSTRLEN (16) charac‐
28 ters for IPv4, INET6_ADDRSTRLEN (46) characters for IPv6).
