The @code{cfg_open} function shall open a configuration traversal stream
rooted in the configuration nodes name by the @code{pathnames} argument.

its descendants, followed by a post-order return, shall
be done.
CFG_PHYSICAL - When symbolic links are encountered during the traversal,
the @codce{cfg_info} field shall describe the symbolic
link.

return, shall be done.

CFGENT structure for any node in a different configuration
space than the configuration spacce of the nodes identified
by the CFGENT structures for the @code{pathnames} argument.

to a function that shall be called with two pointers to pointers to CFGENT
structures that shall return less than, equal to , or greater than zero if
the node referenced by the first argument is considered to be respectively

The CFGENT structure fields provided to the comparison routine shall be as
described with the exception that the contents of the @code{cfg_path} and
@code{cfg_pathlen} fields are unspecified.
This comparison routine is used to determine the order in which nodes in
directories encountered during the traversal are returned, and the order
of traversal when more than one node is specified in the @code{pathnames}
argument to @code{cfg_open}. If a comparison routine is specified, the
order of traversal shall be from the least to the greatest. If the
@code{compar} argument is NULL, the order of traversal shall be as listed
in the @code{pathnames} argument.

@end table
@subheading DESCRIPTION:
if {_POSIX_CFG} is defined:
The @code{cfg_read} function returns a pointer to a CFGENT sturcture
representing a node in the configuration space to which @code{cfgp}
refers. The returned pointer shall be stored at the location
indicated by the @code{node} argument.
The child nodes of each node in the configuration tree is returned
by @code{cfg_read}. If a comparison routine is specified to the
@code{cfg_open} function, the order of return of the child nodes shall
be as specified by the routine, from least to greatest. Otherwise
the order of return is unspecified.
Structures referencing nodes with children shall be returned by the
function @code{cfg_read} at least twice [unless the application
specifies otherwise with @code{cfg_mark}]-once immediately before
the structures representing their descendants, are returned
(pre-order), and once immediately after structures representing all
of their descendants, if any, are returned (post-order). The
CFGENT structure returned in post-porder (with the exception of the
@code{cfg_info} field) shall be identical to that returned in pre-order.
Structures referencing nodes of other types shall be returned at least
once.
The fields of the CFGENT structure shall contain the following
informatation:
cfg_parent - A pointer to the structure returned by the
@code{cfg_read} function for the node that contains
the entry for the current node. A @code{cfg_parent}
structure shall be provided for the node(s) specified
by the @code{pathnames} argument to the @code{cfg_open}
function, but the contents of other than its
@code{cfg_number}, @code{cfg_pointer}, @code{cfg_parent},
and @code{cfg_parent}, and @code{cfg_level} fields are
unspecified. Its @code{cfg_link} field is unspecified.
cfg_link - Upon return from the @code{cfg_children} function, the
@code{cfg_link} field points to the next CFGENT structure
in a NULL-terminated linked list of CFGENT structures.
Otherwise, the content of the @code{cfg_link} field is
unspecified.
cfg_cycle - If the structure being returned by @code{cfg_read}
represents a node that appears in the @code{cfg_parent}
linked list tree, the @code{cfg_cycle} field shall point
to the structure representing that entry from the
@code{cfg_parent} linked list. Otherwise the content of
the @code{cfg_cycle} field is unspecified.
cfg_number - The @code{cfg_number} field is provided for use by the
application program. It shall be initialized to zero for
each new node returned by the @code{cfg_read} function,
but shall not be further modified the configuration space
routines.
cfg_pointer - The @code{cfg_pointer} field is provided for use by the
application program. It shall be initialized to NULL for
each new node returned by the @code{cfg_read} function,
but shall not be further modified by the configuration
space routines.
cfg_path - A pathname for the node including and relative to the
argument supplied to the @code{cfg_open} routine for this
configuration space. This pathname may be logner than
{PATH_MAX} bytes. This patname shall be NULL-terminated.
cfg_name - The nodename of the node.
cfg_pathlen - The length of the string pointed at by the @code{cfg_path}
field when returned by @code{cfg_read}.
cfg_namelen - The length of the string pointed at by the @code{cfg_name}
field.
cfg_level - The depth of the current entry in the configuration space.
The @code{cfg_level} field of the @code{cfg_partent}
structure for each of the node(s) specified in the
@code{pathnames} argument to the @code{cfg_open} function
shall be set to 0, and this number shall be incremented for
for each node level descendant.
cfg_info - This field shall contain one of the values listed below. If
an object can have more than one info value, the first
appropriate value listed below shall be returned.
CFG_D - The structure represents a node with children in
pre-order.
CFG_DC - The structure represents a node that is a parent
of the node most recently returned by @code{cfg_read}.
The @code{cfg_cycle} field shall reference the
structure previously returned by @code{cfg_read} that
is the same as the returned structure.
CFG_DEFAULT - The structure represents a node that is not
represented by one of the other node types
CFG_DNR - The structure represents a node, not of type symlink,
that is unreadable. The variable @code{cfg_errno}
shall be set to the appropriate value.
CFG_DP - The structure represents a node with children in
post-order. This value shall occur only if CFG_D
has previously been returned for this entry.
CFG_ERR - The structure represents a node for which an error has
occurred. The variable @code{cfg_errno} shall be set
to the appropriate value.
CFG_F - The structure represents a node without children.
CFG_SL - The structure represents a node of type symbolic link.
CFG_SLNONET - The structure represents a node of type symbolic link
with a target node for which node characteristic
information cannot be obtained.
Structurres returned by @code{cfg_read} with a @code{cfg_info} field equal to CFG_D
shall be accessible until a subsequent call, on the same configuration traversal
stream, to @code{cfg_close}, or to @code{cfg_read} after they have been returned by
the @code{cfg_read} function in post-order. Structures returnded by @code{cfg_read}
with an @code{cfg_info} field not equal to CFG_D shall be accessible until a
subsequent call, on the same configuration traversal stream, to @code{cfg_close} or
@code{cfg_read}.
The content of the @code{cfg_path} field is specified only for the structure most
recently returned by @code{cfg_read}.
The specified fields in structures in the list representing nodes for which structures
have previously been returned by @code{cfg_children}, shall be identical to those
returned by @code{cfg_children}, except that the contents of the @code{cfg_path} and
@code{cfg_pathlen} fields are unspecified.

The @code{cfg_read} function shall fail.

referenced by @code{f} is not for a node of type symbolic link,
@code{cfg_mark} shall return an error. Otherwise, the next
call to the @code{cfg_read} function shall return the structure
referenced by @code{f} with the @code{cfg_info} field reset
to reflect the target of the symbolic link instead of the
symbolic link itself. If the target of the link is node with
children, the pre-order return, followed by the return of
structures referencing all of its descendants, followed by a
post-order return, shall be don.
If the target of the symbolic link does not exist, the fields
of the structure by @code{cfg_read} shall be unmodified, except
that the @code{cfg_info} field shall be reset to @code{CFG_SLNONE}.
Otherwise:
The @code{cfg_mark} function shall fail.

@subheading DESCRIPTION:
if {_POSIX_CFG} is defined:
The @code{cfg_close} function closes a configuration space transversal
stream represented by the CFG structure pointed at by the @code{cfgp}
argument. All system resources allocated for this configuration space
travsversal stream should be deallocated. Upon return, the value of
@code{cfgp} need not point to an accessible object of type CFG.
Otherwise:
The @code{cfg_close} function shall fail.
