Here is a sample of use of the IPv4 part, an udpecho service that use
IP_PKTINFO and IP_RECVTOS/IP_TOS to be able to use multihomed machine,
and reflect TOS field as well.

#include <sys/socket.h>

#include <arpa/inet.h>

#define PORT 4040

int pktinfo_get(struct msghdr *my_hdr, struct in_pktinfo *pktinfo)
{
	int res = -1;

	if (my_hdr->msg_controllen > 0) {
		struct cmsghdr *get_cmsg;
		for (get_cmsg = CMSG_FIRSTHDR(my_hdr); get_cmsg;
			get_cmsg = CMSG_NXTHDR(my_hdr, get_cmsg)) {
			if (get_cmsg->cmsg_type == IP_PKTINFO) {
				struct in_pktinfo *get_pktinfo = (struct in_pktinfo *)CMSG_DATA(get_cmsg);
				memcpy(pktinfo, get_pktinfo, sizeof(*pktinfo));
				res = 0;
			}
		}
	}
	return res;
}
