DESCRIPTION
       ldnspkt2bufferstr() Converts the data in the DNS packet to  presenta‐
              tion format (as char *) and appends it to the given buffer

              output: pointer to the buffer to append the data to
              pkt: the pointer to the packet to convert
              Returns status

       ldnspktheader2bufferstr()  Converts the header of a packet to presen‐
              tation format and appends it to the output buffer
              output: the buffer to append output to
              pkt: the packet to convert the header of
              Returns ldnsstatus

       ldnsrr2bufferstr() Converts the data in the resource record  to  pre‐
              sentation format (as char *) and appends it to the given buffer.
              The presentation format of DNSKEY record is annotated with  com‐
              ments giving the id, type and size of the key.

              output: pointer to the buffer to append the data to
              rr: the pointer to the rr field to convert
              Returns status

       ldnsrrlist2bufferstr() Converts a rrlist to presentation format and
              appends it to the output buffer
              output: the buffer to append output to
              list: the ldnsrrlist to print
              Returns ldnsstatus

       ldnsrdf2bufferstr() Converts the data in the rdata field to presenta‐
              tion format (as char *) and appends it to the given buffer

              output: pointer to the buffer to append the data to
              rdf: the pointer to the rdafa field containing the data
              Returns status

       ldnskey2bufferstr()  Converts the data in the DNS packet to presenta‐
              tion format (as char *) and appends it to the given buffer

              output: pointer to the buffer to append the data to
              k: the pointer to the private key to convert
              Returns status

       ldnspkt2bufferwire() Copies the packet data to  the  buffer  in  wire
              format
              *output: buffer to append the result to
              *pkt: packet to convert
              Returns ldnsstatus

       ldnsrr2bufferwire() Copies the rr data to the buffer in wire format
              *output: buffer to append the result to
              *rr: resource record to convert
              section:  the section in the packet this rr is supposed to be in
              (to determine whether to add rdata or not)
              Returns ldnsstatus

       ldnsrdf2bufferwire() Copies the rdata data to the buffer in wire for‐
              mat
              *output: buffer to append the result to
              *rdf: rdata to convert
              Returns ldnsstatus

       ldnsrrsig2bufferwire() Converts a rrsig to wireformat BUT EXCLUDE the
              rrsig rdata This is needed in DNSSEC verification
              output: buffer to append the result to
              sigrr: signature rr to operate on
              Returns ldnsstatus

       ldnsrrrdata2bufferwire() Converts an rr's rdata to wireformat, while
              excluding  the  ownername  and  all  the stuff before the rdata.
              This is needed in DNSSEC keytag calculation, the ds  calcalution
              from the key and maybe elsewhere.

              *output: buffer where to put the result
              *rr: rr to operate on
              Returns ldnsstatus
