NAME
     fstyp_ident - identify file system attributes

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

     int fstyp_ident(fstyp_handle_t handle, const char *fstyp,
          const char **ident);


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


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


     ident     File  system  type  returned   if   identification
               succeeds.


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

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