34.Sh DESCRIPTION
35The
36.Fn cgread
37and
38.Fn cgread1
39functions provide cylinder group reads for
40.Xr libufs 3
41consumers.
42The
43.Fn cgread1
44function reads from one cylinder group, specified by
45.Fa c
46into the
47.Va d_cg
48field of a userland UFS disk structure.
49It sets the
50.Va d_lcg
51field to the cylinder group number
52.Fa c .
53.Pp
54The
55.Fn cgread
56function operates on sequential cylinder groups.
57Calling the
58.Fn cgread
59function is equivalent to calling
60.Fn cgread1
61with a cylinder group specifier equivalent to the value of the current
62.Va d_ccg
63field, and then incrementing the
64.Va d_ccg
65field.
66.Pp
67The
68.Fn cgwrite1
69function stores cylinder group specified by
70.Fa c
71from
72.Va d_cg
73field of a userland UFS disk structure on disk.
74.Sh RETURN VALUES
75Both functions return 0 if there are no more cylinder groups to read,
761 if there are more cylinder groups, and \-1 on error.
77.Sh ERRORS
78The function
79.Fn cgread
80may fail and set
81.Va errno
82for any of the errors specified for the library function
83.Xr bread 3 .
84.Pp
85The function
86.Fn cgread1
87has semantically identical failure conditions to those of
88.Fn cgread .
89.Pp
90The function
91.Fn cgwrite1
92may fail and set
93.Va errno
94for any of the errors specified for the library function
95.Xr bwrite 3 .
