There is important information about booting non-ack images in docs/UPDATING. ack/aout-format images can't be built any more, and booting clang/ELF-format ones is a little different. Updating to the new boot monitor is recommended. Changes in this commit: . drop boot monitor -> allowing dropping ack support . facility to copy ELF boot files to /boot so that old boot monitor can still boot fairly easily, see UPDATING . no more ack-format libraries -> single-case libraries . some cleanup of OBJECT_FMT, COMPILER_TYPE, etc cases . drop several ack toolchain commands, but not all support commands (e.g. aal is gone but acksize is not yet). . a few libc files moved to netbsd libc dir . new /bin/date as minix date used code in libc/ . test compile fix . harmonize includes . /usr/lib is no longer special: without ack, /usr/lib plays no kind of special bootstrapping role any more and bootstrapping is done exclusively through packages, so releases depend even less on the state of the machine making them now. . rename nbsd_lib* to lib* . reduce mtree

.Sh SYNOPSIS
|
|
.In stdlib.h
|
|
.Ft void *
|
|
.Fn bsearch "const void *key" "const void *base" "size_t nmemb" "size_t size" "int (*compar) (const void *, const void *)"
|
|
.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn bsearch
|
|
function searches an array of
|
|
.Fa nmemb
|
|
objects, the initial member of which is
|
|
pointed to by
|
|
.Fa base ,
|
|
for a member that matches the object pointed to by
|
|
.Fa key .
|
|
The size of each member of the array is specified by
|
|
.Fa size .
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The contents of the array should be in ascending sorted order according
|
|
to the comparison function referenced by
|
|
.Fa compar .
|
|
The
|
|
.Fa compar
|
|
routine
|
|
is expected to have
|
|
two arguments which point to the
|
|
.Fa key
|
|
object and to an array member, in that order, and should return an integer
|
|
less than, equal to, or greater than zero if the
|
|
.Fa key
|
|
object is found, respectively, to be less than, to match, or be
|
|
greater than the array member.
|
|
.Sh RETURN VALUES
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn bsearch
|
|
function returns a pointer to a matching member of the array, or a null
|
|
pointer if no match is found.
|
|
If two members compare as equal, which member is matched is unspecified.
