The .Fn cgput , .Fn cgwrite , and .Fn cgwrite1 functions provide cylinder group writes for .Xr libufs 3 consumers. .Pp The .Fn cgget function reads the cylinder group specified by .Fa cg into the buffer pointed to by .Fa cgp from the filesystem described by the .Fa fs superblock using the .Fa devfd file descriptor that references the filesystem disk. The .Fn cgget function is the only cylinder group read function that is safe to use in threaded applications. .Pp The .Fn cgput function writes the cylinder group specified by .Va cgp to the filesystem described by the .Fa fs superblock using the .Fa devfd file descriptor that references the filesystem disk. The .Fn cgput function is the only cylinder group write function that is safe to use in threaded applications. Note that the .Fn cgput function needs to be called only if the cylinder group has been modified and the on-disk copy needs to be updated. .Pp The .Fn cgread1 function reads from the cylinder group specified by .Fa cg into the .Va d_cg cylinder-group structure in a user-land UFS-disk structure. It sets the .Va d_lcg field to the cylinder group number .Fa cg . .Pp The .Fn cgread function operates on sequential cylinder groups. Calling the .Fn cgread function is equivalent to calling .Fn cgread1 with a cylinder group specifier equivalent to the value of the current .Va d_ccg field, and then incrementing the .Va d_ccg field. .Pp The .Fn cgwrite function stores on disk the cylinder group held in the .Va d_cg cylinder-group structure in a user-land UFS-disk structure. .Pp The .Fn cgwrite1 function provides no additional functionality over the .Fn cgwrite function as there is only one place that a given cylinder group can correctly be written. If the caller gets the .Fa cg parameter wrong, the function fails with the error .Er EDOOFUS . This function remains only to provide backward compatibility. .Sh RETURN VALUES The .Fn cgread function returns 0 if there are no more cylinder groups to read, 1 if there are more cylinder groups, and \-1 on error. The .Fn cgread1 function returns 1 on success and \-1 on error. The other functions return 0 on success and \-1 on error. .Sh ERRORS The .Fn cgget , .Fn cgread , and .Fn cgread1 functions may fail and set .Va errno for any of the errors specified for the library function .Xr bread 3 . .Pp The .Fn cgput , .Fn cgwrite , and .Fn cgwrite1 functions may fail and set .Va errno for any of the errors specified for the library function .Xr bwrite 3 . Additionally the .Fn cgwrite1 will return the .Er EDOOFUS error if the cylinder group specified does not match the cylinder group that it is requesting to write. .Sh SEE ALSO .Xr bread 3 , .Xr bwrite 3 , .Xr libufs 3 .Sh HISTORY These functions first appeared as part of .Xr libufs 3 in .Fx 5.1 . .Sh AUTHORS .An Juli Mallett Aq Mt jmallett@FreeBSD.org .An Marshall Kirk McKusick Aq Mt mckusick@FreeBSD.org
