readlabelfs — read
disklabel filesystem type
System Utilities Library (libutil, -lutil)
#include <util.h>
char *
readlabelfs(char
*device, int
verbose);
The
readlabelfs()
function attempts to determine the filesystem type of the disk partition
specified by device and returns it in a short form
that can be easily used to construct arguments within
mount(8) and similar high-level filesystem utilities.
If the verbose argument
is not 0,
readlabelfs()
will print appropriate error messages before returning. Otherwise, it
produces no output on the terminal.
readlabelfs() returns
NULL upon error, or a valid filesystem type upon
success.
readlabelfs() first appeared in
OpenBSD 2.0.
