Linux 下 可以使用ioctl()函数 以及 结构体 struct ifreq  结构体struct ifconf来获取网络接口的各种信息。

ioctl
首先看ioctl()用法
ioctl()原型如下：

#include <sys/ioctl.h>
int ioctl(int fd, int request, ...);
参数：
fd     ：  文件描述符
request：  表示要请求的信息。如IP地址、网络掩码等
...    ：  后面的可变参数根据request而定

比如我们请求所有网络接口的清单：

struct ifconf IoCtlReq;
...
ioctl( Sock, SIOCGIFCONF, &IoCtlReq )

其中IoCtlReq 是一个

与接口相关的request如下表所示（来源： <http://baike.baidu.com/view/1081282.htm?fr=aladdin>）：

关于ioctl的详细解释清查阅本博其它博文

struct ifreq
结构体 struct ifreq用来保存某个接口的信息。

// if.h
/*
 * Interface request structure used for socket
 * ioctl's.  All interface ioctl's must have parameter
 * definitions which begin with ifr_name.  The
 * remainder may be interface specific.
 */
struct ifreq {
#define IFHWADDRLEN	6
	union
	{
		char	ifrn_name[IFNAMSIZ];		/* if name, e.g. "en0" */
	} ifr_ifrn;
	
	union {
		struct	sockaddr ifru_addr;
		struct	sockaddr ifru_dstaddr;
		struct	sockaddr ifru_broadaddr;
		struct	sockaddr ifru_netmask;
		struct  sockaddr ifru_hwaddr;
		short	ifru_flags;
		int	ifru_ivalue;
		int	ifru_mtu;
		struct  ifmap ifru_map;
		char	ifru_slave[IFNAMSIZ];	/* Just fits the size */
		char	ifru_newname[IFNAMSIZ];
		void __user *	ifru_data;
		struct	if_settings ifru_settings;
	} ifr_ifru;
};
#define ifr_name	ifr_ifrn.ifrn_name	/* interface name 	*/
#define ifr_hwaddr	ifr_ifru.ifru_hwaddr	/* MAC address 		*/
#define	ifr_addr	ifr_ifru.ifru_addr	/* address		*/
#define	ifr_dstaddr	ifr_ifru.ifru_dstaddr	/* other end of p-p lnk	*/
#define	ifr_broadaddr	ifr_ifru.ifru_broadaddr	/* broadcast address	*/
#define	ifr_netmask	ifr_ifru.ifru_netmask	/* interface net mask	*/
#define	ifr_flags	ifr_ifru.ifru_flags	/* flags		*/
#define	ifr_metric	ifr_ifru.ifru_ivalue	/* metric		*/
#define	ifr_mtu		ifr_ifru.ifru_mtu	/* mtu			*/
#define ifr_map		ifr_ifru.ifru_map	/* device map		*/
#define ifr_slave	ifr_ifru.ifru_slave	/* slave device		*/
#define	ifr_data	ifr_ifru.ifru_data	/* for use by interface	*/
#define ifr_ifindex	ifr_ifru.ifru_ivalue	/* interface index	*/
#define ifr_bandwidth	ifr_ifru.ifru_ivalue    /* link bandwidth	*/
#define ifr_qlen	ifr_ifru.ifru_ivalue	/* Queue length 	*/
#define ifr_newname	ifr_ifru.ifru_newname	/* New name		*/
#define ifr_settings	ifr_ifru.ifru_settings	/* Device/proto settings*/

ifr_name 标识了某一接口。
可以通过ioctl获取该接口的信息。如：

ioctl(Sock, SIOCGIFNETMASK, &IfReq);//获取网络接口地址掩码

该代码需要先对IfReq->ifr_name赋值，然后获取与IfReq->ifr_name向匹配的网络接口 的地址掩码

struct ifconf
结构体struct ifconf通常用来保存所有接口信息

// if.h
/*
 * Structure used in SIOCGIFCONF request.
 * Used to retrieve interface configuration
 * for machine (useful for programs which
 * must know all networks accessible).
 */
struct ifconf  {
	int	ifc_len;			/* size of buffer	*/
	union {
		char __user *ifcu_buf;
		struct ifreq __user *ifcu_req;
	} ifc_ifcu;
};
#define	ifc_buf	ifc_ifcu.ifcu_buf		/* buffer address	*/
#define	ifc_req	ifc_ifcu.ifcu_req		/* array of structures	*/

该结构体可以用来获取所哟网络接口的名字和信息（不是全部信息，是ip地址）

	struct ifreq ifVec[MAX_IF];//用来保存所有接口
	
	int sock = -1;
	if ( (sock = socket( AF_INET, SOCK_DGRAM, 0 )) < 0 )

	 printf("Len:%d\n", ioIfConf.ifc_len);     
		
	if (ioctl(sock, SIOCGIFCONF, &ioIfConf) < 0 )//获取所有网络接口信息
		fprintf(stderr, "Error:%d   ioctl IFCONF\n");
	
	 printf("Len:%d\n", ioIfConf.ifc_len);// 和前面到len对比，发现ioctl修改里len到大小     
	//循环打印每个网络接口到信息
	{
		struct ifreq *ifPt;
		struct ifreq *ifEndPt;
		ifPt = ifVec;
		ifEndPt = (void *)((char *)ifVec + ioIfConf.ifc_len);

			struct ifreq ifReq;
			if ( ifPt->ifr_addr.sa_family != AF_INET ) {
                		continue;
            		}
			
			// Temp keepers of interface params...
			uint32 u32_addr, u32_mask;
			
			/*	打印ip地址	*/
			char ipDotBuf[16], subnetDotBuf[16], maskDotBuf[16]; // 保存点分十进制到ip地址
			u32_addr = ((struct sockaddr_in *)&ifPt->ifr_addr)->sin_addr.s_addr;
			inet_ntop(AF_INET, &u32_addr, ipDotBuf, (socklen_t )sizeof(ipDotBuf)); 
			printf("IP Address: %s\n", ipDotBuf);
			
			/*    打印地址掩码    */
			bzero(&ifReq,sizeof(struct ifreq));  
			memcpy(ifReq.ifr_name, ifPt->ifr_name, sizeof(ifReq.ifr_name));  
			if (ioctl(sock, SIOCGIFNETMASK, &ifReq ) < 0){
				fprintf(stderr, "Error: %d, cannot get mask\n", errno);
			}
			else{
				u32_mask = ((struct sockaddr_in *)&ifReq.ifr_addr)->sin_addr.s_addr;
				inet_ntop(AF_INET, &u32_mask, maskDotBuf, (socklen_t )sizeof(maskDotBuf));
				printf("Mask: %s\n", maskDotBuf);
			}	
			/*    打印MTU    */
			bzero(&ifReq,sizeof(struct ifreq));  
			memcpy(ifReq.ifr_name, ifPt->ifr_name, sizeof(ifReq.ifr_name));  
			if (ioctl(sock, SIOCGIFMTU, &ifReq ) < 0){
				fprintf(stderr, "Error: %d, cannot get MTU\n", errno);
			}
			else{
				printf("SIOCGIFMTU:%d\n", ifReq.ifr_mtu); 
			}
	           /*    其他信息的打印方式与掩码和MTU相同    */
		}
	}
}
