address being converted. @var{cp} is a pointer to the input string, and
@var{buf} is a pointer to a buffer for the result. It is the caller's
responsibility to make sure the buffer is large enough.
+
+The return value is @code{1} on success and @code{0} if @var{cp} does not
+point to a valid address string for the address family @var{af} requested.
+On failure, the function's return value is @code{-1} and @code{errno} is
+set accordingly. The following @code{errno} values are specific to this
+function:
+
+@table @code
+@item EAFNOSUPPORT
+The address family requested is neither @code{AF_INET} nor @code{AF_INET6}.
