NAME
     fstypident - identify file system attributes

SYNOPSIS
     cc [ flag... ] file... -lfstyp  -lnvpair  [ library... ]
     #include 
     #include 

     int fstypident(fstyphandlet handle, const char *fstyp,
          const char **ident);


PARAMETERS
     handle    Opaque handle returned by fstypinit(3FSTYP).


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


     ident     File  system  type  returned   if   identification
               succeeds.


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


     If fstype is NUL,  the  fstypident()  function  tries  all
     available  identification  modules.  If fstype is other than
     NUL, fstypident() tries only the module for the file  sys-
     tem type which is specified.

RETURN VALUES
     The fstypident() function returns 0 on success and an error
     value on failure. See fstypstrerror(3FSTYP).
