+see for example the \fI\-o\fP option of +.BR mount (8).) +Each suboption may include an associated value, +which is separated from the suboption name by an equal sign. +The following is an example of the kind of string +that might be passed in +.IR optionp : +.PP +.in +4n +.EX +.B ro,name=xyz +.EE +.in +.PP +The +.I tokens +argument is a pointer to a NULL-terminated array of pointers to the tokens that +.BR getsubopt () +will look for in +.IR optionp . +The tokens should be distinct, null-terminated strings containing at +least one character, with no embedded equal signs or commas. +.PP +Each call to +.BR getsubopt () +returns information about the next unprocessed suboption in +.IR optionp . +The first equal sign in a suboption (if any) is interpreted as a +separator between the name and the value of that suboption. +The value extends to the next comma, +or (for the last suboption) to the end of the string. +If the name of the suboption matches a known name from +.IR tokens , +and a value string was found, +.BR getsubopt () +sets +.I *valuep +to the address of that string. +The first comma in +.I optionp +is overwritten with a null byte, so +.I *valuep +is precisely the "value string" for that suboption. +.PP +If the suboption is recognized, but no value string was found, +.I *valuep +is set to NULL. +.PP +When +.BR getsubopt () +returns, +.I optionp +points to the next suboption, +or to the null byte (\[aq]\e0\[aq]) at the end of the +string if the last suboption was just processed. +.SH RETURN VALUE +If the first suboption in +.I optionp +is recognized, +.BR getsubopt () +returns the index of the matching suboption element in +.IR tokens . +Otherwise, \-1 is returned and +.I *valuep +is the entire +.IB name [= value ] +string. +.PP +Since +.I *optionp +is changed, the first suboption before the call to +.BR getsubopt () +is not (necessarily) the same as the first suboption after +.BR getsubopt (). +.SH ATTRIBUTES +For an explanation of the terms used in this section, see +.BR attributes (7). +.TS +allbox;
