G_PROVIDER_BY_NAME(9) FreeBSD Kernel Developer's Manual G_PROVIDER_BY_NAME(9)

g_provider_by_name
find GEOM provider with given name

#include <geom/geom.h>

struct g_provider *
g_provider_by_name(const char *name);

The g_provider_by_name() function searches for a provider called name and returns the structure g_provider bound to it. Argument name should be a name, not a full path (i.e., “da0”, instead of “/dev/da0”).

The topology lock has to be held.

The g_provider_by_name() function returns a pointer to the provider called name or NULL if there is no such provider.
