fstyp_init(3FSTYP)				 File System Type Identification Library Functions				fstyp_init(3FSTYP)

NAME

       fstyp_init, fstyp_fini - initialize and finalize libfstyp handle

SYNOPSIS

       cc [ flag... ] file... -lfstyp  -lnvpair  [ library... ]
       #include <libnvpair.h>
       #include <libfstyp.h>

       int fstyp_init(int fd, off64_t **offset, char *module_dir,
	    fstyp_handle_t *handle);

       void fstyp_fini(void *handle);

PARAMETERS

       fd	     Open file descriptor of a block or a raw device that contains the file system to be identified.

       offset	     Offset from the beginning of the device where the file system is located.

       module_dir    Optional location of the libfstyp modules.

       handle	     Opaque handle to be used with libfstyp functions.

DESCRIPTION

       The  fstyp_init()  function  returns  a handle associated with the specified parameters. This handle should be used with all other libfstyp
       functions.

       If module_dir is NULL, fstyp_init() looks for modules in the  default  location:  /usr/lib/fs  subdirectories.  The  fstyp_init()  function
       locates libfstyp modules, but might defer loading the modules until the subsequent fstyp_ident() call.

       If  module_dir  is  other  than NULL, the fstyp_init() function locates a module in the directory that is specified. If no module is found,
       fstyp_init fails with FSTYP_ERR_MOD_NOT_FOUND.

       Modules that do not support non-zero offset can fail fstyp_init() with FSTYP_ERR_OFFSET.

       The fstyp_fini() function releases all resources associated with a handle and invalidates the handle.

RETURN VALUES

       The fstyp_init() function returns 0 on success and an error value on failure. See fstyp_strerror(3FSTYP).

NAME

       ptree_get_prop_by_name - get a property handle by name

SYNOPSIS

       cc [ flag ] file... -lpicltree [ library... ]
       #include <picltree.h>

       int ptree_get_prop_by_name(picl_nodehdl_t nodeh, char *name, picl_prophdl_t *proph);

DESCRIPTION

       The ptree_get_prop_by_name() function gets the handle of the property, whose name is specified in name, of the node specified by the handle
       nodeh.  The property handle is copied into the location specified by proph.

RETURN VALUES

       Upon successful completion, 0 is returned. On failure, a non-negative integer is returned to indicate an error.

       PICL_RESERVEDNAME is returned if the name specified is a PICL reserved name property. Reserved name properties do not  have  an	associated
       property handle. Use ptree_get_propval_by_name(3PICLTREE) to get the value of a reserved property.

       PICL_STALEHANDLE is returned if the handle is no longer valid. This occurs if the PICL tree was refreshed or reinitialized.

       PICL_INVALIDHANDLE is returned if the specified handle never existed.

ERRORS

       PICL_NOTNODE	       Not a node

       PICL_RESERVEDNAME       Property name is reserved

       PICL_INVALIDHANDLE      Invalid handle

       PICL_STALEHANDLE        Stale handle

       PICL_PROPNOTFOUND       Property not found

       PICL_FAILURE	       General system failure
