Purpose

Lists the extended attributes associated with a file.

Syntax

#include <sys/types.h>
#include <sys/errno.h>
int fp_listea (fp, list, size, countp, segflag)
struct file * fp;           
const char * list;
size_t size;
ssize_t * countp;
int segflag;

Parameters

size	Specifies the size of the list buffer.
countp	Specifies the actual size of the content in the list buffer.
segflag	Specifies the flags indicating where the pointer specified by the path parameter is located: SYS_ADSPACE The pointer specified by the list parameter is stored in kernel memory. USER_ADSPACE The pointer specified by the list parameter is stored in application memory.
