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.

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.

Null pointer (0) returned on EOF or error.
