Feature Test Macro Requirements for glibc (see feature_test_macros<\/b>(7)):<\/p>\n

Since glibc 2.19:
_DEFAULT_SOURCE
Glibc 2.19 and earlier:
_BSD_SOURCE || _SVID_SOURCE<\/p>\n

DESCRIPTION <\/a> <\/h2>\n

These routines are used to access the filesystem description file \/etc\/fstab<\/i> and the mounted filesystem description file \/etc\/mtab<\/i>.<\/p>\n

The setmntent<\/b>() function opens the filesystem description file filename<\/i> and returns a file pointer which can be used by getmntent<\/b>(). The argument type<\/i> is the type of access required and can take the same values as the mode<\/i> argument of fopen<\/b>(3). The returned stream should be closed using endmntent<\/b>() rather than fclose<\/b>(3).<\/p>\n

The getmntent<\/b>() function reads the next line of the filesystem description file from stream<\/i> and returns a pointer to a structure containing the broken out fields from a line in the file. The pointer points to a static area of memory which is overwritten by subsequent calls to getmntent<\/b>().<\/p>\n

The addmntent<\/b>() function adds the mntent<\/i> structure mnt<\/i> to the end of the open stream<\/i>.<\/p>\n

The endmntent<\/b>() function closes the stream<\/i> associated with the filesystem description file.<\/p>\n

The hasmntopt<\/b>() function scans the mnt_opts<\/i> field (see below) of the mntent<\/i> structure mnt<\/i> for a substring that matches opt<\/i>. See <\/i> and mount<\/b>(8) for valid mount options.<\/p>\n

The reentrant getmntent_r<\/b>() function is similar to getmntent<\/b>(), but stores the struct mount<\/i> in the provided *mntbuf<\/i> and stores the strings pointed to by the entries in that struct in the provided array buf<\/i> of size buflen<\/i>.<\/p>\n

The mntent<\/i> structure is defined in <\/i> as follows:<\/p>\n

struct mntent {
char *mnt_fsname; \/bin \/boot \/dead.letter \/dev \/etc \/home \/initrd \/lib \/lib64 \/lost+found \/media \/mnt \/opt \/proc \/release-notes.html \/release-notes.txt \/root \/run \/sbin \/srv \/sys \/tmp \/usr \/var name of mounted filesystem bodies\/ usr\/

char *mnt_type; \/bin \/boot \/dead.letter \/dev \/etc \/home \/initrd \/lib \/lib64 \/lost+found \/media \/mnt \/opt \/proc \/release-notes.html \/release-notes.txt \/root \/run \/sbin \/srv \/sys \/tmp \/usr \/var mount type (see mntent.h) bodies\/ usr\/
char *mnt_opts; \/bin \/boot \/dead.letter \/dev \/etc \/home \/initrd \/lib \/lib64 \/lost+found \/media \/mnt \/opt \/proc \/release-notes.html \/release-notes.txt \/root \/run \/sbin \/srv \/sys \/tmp \/usr \/var mount options (see mntent.h) bodies\/ usr\/
int mnt_freq; \/bin \/boot \/dead.letter \/dev \/etc \/home \/initrd \/lib \/lib64 \/lost+found \/media \/mnt \/opt \/proc \/release-notes.html \/release-notes.txt \/root \/run \/sbin \/srv \/sys \/tmp \/usr \/var dump frequency in days bodies\/ usr\/
int mnt_passno; \/bin \/boot \/dead.letter \/dev \/etc \/home \/initrd \/lib \/lib64 \/lost+found \/media \/mnt \/opt \/proc \/release-notes.html \/release-notes.txt \/root \/run \/sbin \/srv \/sys \/tmp \/usr \/var pass number on parallel fsck bodies\/ usr\/
};<\/p>\n

Since fields in the mtab and fstab files are separated by whitespace, octal escapes are used to represent the characters space (\u000040), tab (\u000011), newline (\u000012), and backslash (\\) in those files when they occur in one of the four strings in a mntent<\/i> structure. The routines addmntent<\/b>() and getmntent<\/b>() will convert from string representation to escaped representation and back. When converting from escaped representation, the sequence 134 is also converted to a backslash.<\/p>\n

RETURN VALUE <\/a> <\/h2>\n

The getmntent<\/b>() and getmntent_r<\/b>() functions return a pointer to the mntent<\/i> structure or NULL on failure.<\/p>\n

The addmntent<\/b>() function returns 0 on success and 1 on failure.<\/p>\n

The endmntent<\/b>() function always returns 1.<\/p>\n

The hasmntopt<\/b>() function returns the address of the substring if a match is found and NULL otherwise.<\/p>\n

CONFORMING TO <\/a> <\/h2>\n

The nonreentrant functions are from SunOS 4.1.3. A routine getmntent_r<\/b>() was introduced in HP-UX 10, but it returns an int<\/i>. The prototype shown above is glibc-only.<\/p>\n

NOTES <\/a> <\/h2>\n

System V also has a getmntent<\/b>() function but the calling sequence differs, and the returned structure is different. Under System V \/etc\/mnttab<\/i> is used. 4.4BSD and Digital UNIX have a routine getmntinfo<\/b>(), a wrapper around the system call getfsstat<\/b>().<\/p>\n
