在Linux上使用C语言编程获取IPv4地址及子网掩码
在Linux上(如Ubuntu或CentOS), 获取某个Network Interface比如eth0的IP地址等信息，我们可以使用ifconfig或者ip addr show命令。
$ ifconfig eth0 eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:25:64:ba:8d:be inet addr:192.168.1.102 Bcast:192.168.1.255 Mask:255.255.255.0 inet6 addr: fe80::225:64ff:feba:8dbe/64 Scope:Link UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1 RX packets:31242 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0 TX packets:29415 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 collisions:0 txqueuelen:1000 RX bytes:29102650 (29.1 MB) TX bytes:4090669 (4.0 MB) Interrupt:16 $ ip addr show eth0 2: eth0: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc mq state UP group default qlen 1000 link/ether 00:25:64:ba:8d:be brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff inet 192.168.1.102/24 brd 192.168.1.255 scope global eth0 valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever inet6 fe80::225:64ff:feba:8dbe/64 scope link valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever
那么用C语言编程怎么实现呢？ 先用strace工具观察一下ifconfig eth0的运行内幕。
$ strace ifconfig eth0 execve("/sbin/ifconfig", ["ifconfig", "eth0"], [/* 71 vars */]) = 0 brk(0) = 0x9565000 access("/etc/ld.so.nohwcap", F_OK) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory) mmap2(NULL,

注意上面的socket()和ioctl(), 我们不难发现如下关键调用，
socket(PF_INET, SOCK_DGRAM, IPPROTO_IP) = 4 ioctl(4, SIOCGIFADDR, {ifr_name="eth0", ifr_addr={AF_INET, inet_addr("192.168.1.102")}}) = 0 ioctl(4, SIOCGIFNETMASK, {ifr_name="eth0", ifr_netmask={AF_INET, inet_addr("255.255.255.0")}}) = 0
好了，现在可以上C代码了，(foo_get.c)

编译并测试，
$ gcc -g -Wall -std=gnu99 -o foo_get foo_get.c $ ./foo_get eth0 IFNAME:IPv4:MASK eth0:192.168.1.102:255.255.255.0 $ ./foo_get lo IFNAME:IPv4:MASK lo:127.0.0.1:255.0.0.0
