.SH DESCRIPTION
.sp
.LP
These functions provide a means for querying the contents of the specified
configuration. The \fIconf\fR argument for each function refers to the target
configuration to which the operation applies.
.sp
.LP
The \fBpool_get_pool()\fR function returns the pool with the given name from
the provided configuration.
.sp
.LP
The \fBpool_get_resource()\fR function returns the resource with the given name
and type from the provided configuration.
.sp
.LP
The \fBpool_query_components()\fR function retrieves all resource components
that match the given list of properties. If the list of properties is
\fINULL\fR, all components are returned. The number of elements returned is
stored in the location pointed to by \fInelem\fR. The value returned by
\fBpool_query_components()\fR is allocated with \fBmalloc\fR(3C) and must be
explicitly freed.
.sp
.LP
The \fBpool_query_pools()\fR function behaves similarly to
\fBpool_query_components()\fR and returns the list of pools that match the
given list of properties. The value returned must be freed by the caller.
.sp
.LP
The \fBpool_query_resources()\fR function similarly returns the list of
resources that match the given list of properties. The return value must be
freed by the caller.
.SH RETURN VALUES
.sp
.LP
The \fBpool_get_pool()\fR and \fBpool_get_resource()\fR functions return the
matching pool and resource, respectively. Otherwise, they return \fINULL\fR and
\fBpool_error\fR(3POOL) returns the pool-specific error value.
.sp
.LP
The \fBpool_query_components()\fR, \fBpool_query_pools()\fR, and
\fBpool_query_resources()\fR functions return a null-terminated array of
components, pools, and resources, respectively. If the query was unsuccessful
or there were no matches, \fINULL\fR is returned and \fBpool_error()\fR returns
the pool-specific error value.
