NAME
setmntent, getmntent, addmntent, endmntent, hasmntopt - get file
system descriptor file entry

SYNOPSIS
#include <stdio.h>
#include <mntent.h>

FILE *setmntent(filep, type)
const char *filep;
const char *type;

struct mntent *getmntent(filep)
FILE *filep;

int addmntent(filep, mnt)
FILE *filep;
struct mntent *mnt;

char *hasmntopt(mnt, opt)
struct mntent *mnt;
char *opt;

int endmntent(filep)
FILE *filep;

DESCRIPTION
These routines replace the getfsent routines for accessing the file
system description file /etc/fstab. They are also used to access
the mounted file system description file /etc/mtab.

Setmntent opens a file system description file and returns a file
pointer which can then be used with getmntent, addmntent, or
endmntent. The type argument is the same as in fopen(3).
Getmntent reads the next line from filep and returns a pointer to
an object with the following structure containing the broken-out
fields of a line in the filesystem description file, <mntent.h>.
The fields have meanings described in fstab(5).

struct mntent {
char *mnt_fsname;/* file system name */
char *mnt_dir; /* file system path prefix */
char *mnt_type; /* 4.2, nfs, swap, or xx */
char *mnt_opts; /* ro, quota, etc. */
int mnt_freq; /* dump frequency, in days */
int mnt_passno; /* pass number on parallel fsck */
};

Addmntent adds the mntent structure mnt to the end of the open file
filep. Note that filep has to be opened for writing if this is to
work. Hasmntopt scans the mnt_opts field of the mntent structure
mnt for a substring that matches opt. It returns the address of
the substring if a match is found, 0 otherwise. Endmntent closes
the file.
