The
getlastlogx
()
function looks up the entry for the user with user id
uid and returns it in ll. If the
provided ll is NULL
, the
necessary space will be allocated by getlastlogx
()
and should be
free
()d
by the caller. The
getlastlogxbyname
()
function is similar to getlastlogx
(), except the
user name is passed.
getutmp
()
function fills out the entries in the struct utmp u
with the data provided in the struct utmpx ux.
getutmpx
()
does the opposite, filling out the entries in the struct utmpx
ux with the data provided in the struct utmp
u, and initializing all the unknown fields to 0. The
sole exception is the ut_type field, which will be
initialized to USER_PROCESS
.
A struct lastlogx is defined like this:
struct lastlogx { struct timeval ll_tv; /* time entry was created */ char ll_line[_UTX_LINESIZE]; /* tty name */ char ll_host[_UTX_HOSTSIZE]; /* host name */ };
The
utmpxname
()
function sets the default utmpx(5)
database file name to fname.
getlastlogx
() and
getlastlogxbyname
() return the found entry on
success, or NULL
if it could not open the database,
could not find an entry matching uid or
name, or could not allocate the necessary space (in
case ll was NULL
).
utmpxname
() returns 1 on success, or 0 if
the supplied file name was too long or did not end with
‘x’.
The functions getutmp
(),
getutmpx
(), and utmpxname
()
first appeared in Solaris. getlastlogx
first
appeared in NetBSD 2.0.
