/* struct resolv_context objects are allocated on the heap,
   initialized by __resolv_context_get (and its variants), and
   destroyed by __resolv_context_put.

   A nested call to __resolv_context_get (after another call to
   __resolv_context_get without a matching __resolv_context_put call,
   on the same thread) returns the original pointer, instead of
   allocating a new context.  This prevents unexpected reloading of
   the resolver configuration.  Care is taken to keep the context in
   sync with the thread-local _res object.  (This does not happen with
   __resolv_context_get_override, and __resolv_context_get_no_inet6 may
   also interpose another context object if RES_USE_INET6 needs to be
   disabled.)

   In contrast to struct __res_state, struct resolv_context is not
   affected by ABI compatibility concerns.

   For the benefit of the res_n* functions, a struct __res_state
   pointer is included in the context object, and a separate
   initialization function is provided.  */
