VOLMGT_OWNSPATH(3VOLMGT)VOLMGT_OWNSPATH(3VOLMGT)NAMEvolmgt_ownspath - check volume management name space for path
SYNOPSIS
cc [flag]... file... −lvolgmt [library]...
#include <volmgt.h>
int volmgt_ownspath(char *path);
PARAMETERS
path
A string containing the path.
DESCRIPTION
This function is obsolete. The management of removable media by the
Volume Management feature, including vold, has been replaced by soft‐
ware that supports the Hardware Abstraction Layer (HAL). Programmatic
support for HAL is through the HAL APIs, which are documented on the
HAL web site. See hal(5). The return value of this function is unde‐
fined.
The volmgt_ownspath() function checks to see if a given path is con‐
tained in the volume management name space. This is achieved by compar‐
ing the beginning of the supplied path name with the output from
volmgt_root(3VOLMGT)RETURN VALUES
The return from this function is undefined.
EXAMPLES
Example 1 Using volmgt_ownspath()
The following example first checks if volume management is running,
then checks the volume management name space for path, and then returns
the id for the piece of media.
char *path;
...
if (volmgt_running()) {
if (volmgt_ownspath(path)) {
(void) printf("id of %s is %lld\n",
path, media_getid(path));
}
}
