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

fstyp_ident - identify file system attributes

cc [ flag... ] file... -lfstyp  -lnvpair  [ library... ]
#include <libnvpair.h>
#include <libfstyp.h>
int fstyp_ident(fstyp_handle_t handle, const char *fstyp,

const char **ident);

handle

Opaque handle returned by fstyp_init(3FSTYP).

fstype

Opaque argument that specifies the file system type to be identified.

ident

File system type returned if identification succeeds.

The fstyp_ident() function attempts to identify a file system associated with the handle. If the function succeeds, the file system name is returned in the ident pointer.

If fstype is NULL, the fstyp_ident() function tries all available identification modules. If fstype is other than NULL, fstyp_ident() tries only the module for the file system type which is specified.

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