GETFSENT(3)							   GETFSENT(3)

NAME
       getfsent,  getfsspec,  getfsfile,  getfstype,  setfsent, endfsent - get
       file system descriptor file entry

SYNOPSIS
       #include <fstab.h>

       struct fstab *getfsent()

       struct fstab *getfsspec(spec)
       char *spec;

       struct fstab *getfsfile(file)
       char *file;

       struct fstab *getfstype(type)
       char *type;

       int setfsent()

       int endfsent()

DESCRIPTION
       Getfsent, getfsspec, getfstype, and getfsfile each return a pointer  to
       an object with the following structure containing the broken-out fields
       of a line in the file system description file, <fstab.h>.

	      struct fstab {
		   char *fs_spec;
		   char *fs_file;
		   char *fs_type;
		   int	fs_freq;
		   int	fs_passno;
	      };

       The fields have meanings described in fstab(5).

       Getfsent reads  the  next  line	of  the	 file,	opening	 the  file  if
       necessary.

       Setfsent opens and rewinds the file.

       Endfsent closes the file.

       Getfsspec  and  getfsfile sequentially search from the beginning of the
       file until a matching special file name or file	system	file  name  is
       found,  or until EOF is encountered.  Getfstype does likewise, matching
       on the file system type field.

FILES
       /etc/fstab

SEE ALSO
       fstab(5)

DIAGNOSTICS
       Null pointer (0) returned on EOF or error.

BUGS
       All information is contained in a static area so it must be  copied  if
       it is to be saved.
