NAME

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

SYNOPSIS

   Remarks:
       These  routines	are  included  only  for compatibility with 4.2 BSD.  For maximum portability and improved functionality, new applications
       should use the getmntent(3X) library routines.

DESCRIPTION

       and each returns a pointer to an object with the following structure containing the broken-out fields of a line in the file.  The structure
       is declared in the header file:

       The  fields  have meanings described in fstab(4).  If the block special file name, the file system directory name, and the type are not all
       defined on the associated line in these routines return pointers to NULL in the and fields.  If the pass number	or  the  backup  frequency
       field are not present on the line, these routines return -1 in the corresponding structure member.  is reserved for future use.

       Reads the next line of the file, opening the file if necessary.

       Opens and rewinds the file.

       Closes the file.

       Sequentially searches from beginning of file
			   until a matching special file name is found, or until EOF is encountered.

       Sequentially searches from the beginning of the file
			   until a matching file system file name is found, or until EOF is encountered.  Sequentially searches from the beginning
			   of the file until a matching file system type field is found, or until EOF is encountered.

DIAGNOSTICS

       A null pointer is returned on EOF, invalid entry, or error.

WARNINGS

       Since all information is contained in a static area, it must be copied to be saved.

   Obsolescent Interfaces
       and are to be obsoleted at a future date.
