NAME
       read_scf, fread_scf, read_scf_header - Read SCF files

SYNOPSIS
       #include <scf.h>

       Scf *read_scf(
	    char *fn);

       Scf *fread_scf(
	    FILE *fp);

       int read_scf_header(
	    FILE *fp,
	    Header *h);

DESCRIPTION
       These  functions  read  SCF  format trace files. All the functions accepting a FILE * as an argument assume that the file pointer is at the
       correct offset within the file.

       read_scf() reads an entire SCF file into the Scf structure (see the scf(4) manual page for the details of this structure). The data is read
       from the specified file name.

       fread_scf()  reads  an  entire  SCF file into the Scf structure (see the scf(4) manual page for the details of this structure). The data is
       read from the specified file pointer, which is neither closed or rewound after the operation.

       read_scf_header() reads the Header structure from the specified file pointer.

RETURN VALUES
       On successful completion, the read_scf() and fread_scf() functions return a pointer to a Scf structure. Othewise these functions  return  a
       null pointer.

       On successful completion, the read_scf_header() function returns 0.  Otherwise the function returns -1.
