NAME
ixp_read, ixp_pread
SYNOPSIS
#include <ixp.h> long ixp_read(IxpCFid *fid, void *buf, long count); long ixp_pread(IxpCFid *fid, void *buf, long count, int64_t offset);
PARAMETERS
- buf
-
A buffer in which to store the read data.
- count
-
The number of bytes to read.
- offset
-
The offset at which to begin reading.
DESCRIPTION
ixp_read and ixp_pread each read count bytes of data from the file pointed to by fid, into buf. ixp_read begins reading at its stored offset, and increments it by the number of bytes read. ixp_pread reads beginning at offset and does not alter fid's stored offset.
RETURN VALUE
These functions return the number of bytes read on success and -1 on failure.
