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 DESCRIPTION
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn scandir
|
|
function
|
|
reads the directory
|
|
.Fa dirname
|
|
and builds an array of pointers to directory
|
|
entries using
|
|
.Xr malloc 3 .
|
|
It returns the number of entries in the array.
|
|
A pointer to the array of directory entries is stored in the location
|
|
referenced by
|
|
.Fa namelist .
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The
|
|
.Fa select
|
|
parameter is a pointer to a user supplied subroutine which is called by
|
|
.Fn scandir
|
|
to select which entries are to be included in the array.
|
|
The select routine is passed a
|
|
pointer to a directory entry and should return a non-zero
|
|
value if the directory entry is to be included in the array.
|
|
If
|
|
.Fa select
|
|
is null, then all the directory entries will be included.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The
|
|
.Fa compar
|
|
parameter is a pointer to a user supplied subroutine which is passed to
|
|
.Xr qsort 3
|
|
to sort the completed array.
|
|
If this pointer is null, the array is not sorted.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn alphasort
|
|
function
|
|
is a routine which can be used for the
|
|
.Fa compar
|
|
parameter to sort the array alphabetically.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The memory allocated for the array can be deallocated with
|
|
.Xr free 3 ,
|
|
by freeing each pointer in the array and then the array itself.
|
|
.Sh DIAGNOSTICS
|
|
Returns \-1 if the directory cannot be opened for reading or if
|
|
.Xr malloc 3
|
|
cannot allocate enough memory to hold all the data structures.
