.SH DESCRIPTION
.LP
The \fIif_nameindex\fP() function shall return an array of \fIif_nameindex\fP
structures, one structure per interface. The end
of the array is indicated by a structure with an \fIif_index\fP field
of zero and an \fIif_name\fP field of NULL.
.LP
Applications should call \fIif_freenameindex\fP() to release the memory
that
may be dynamically allocated by this function, after they have finished
using it.
.SH RETURN VALUE
.LP
An array of structures identifying local interfaces. A NULL pointer
is returned upon an error, with \fIerrno\fP set to indicate
the error.
.SH ERRORS
