.Sh DESCRIPTION
The
.Fn cgread
and
.Fn cgread1
functions provide cylinder group reads for
.Xr libufs 3
consumers.
The
.Fn cgread1
function reads from one cylinder group, specified by
.Fa c
into the
.Va d_cg
field of a userland UFS disk structure.
It sets the
.Va d_lcg
field to the cylinder group number
.Fa c .
.Pp
The
.Fn cgread
function operates on sequential cylinder groups.
Calling the
.Fn cgread
function is equivalent to calling
.Fn cgread1
with a cylinder group specifier equivalent to the value of the current
.Va d_ccg
field, and then incrementing the
.Va d_ccg
field.
.Sh RETURN VALUES
Both functions return 0 if there are no more cylinder groups to read,
1 if there are more cylinder groups, and \-1 on error.
.Sh ERRORS
The function
.Fn cgread
may fail and set
.Va errno
for any of the errors specified for the library function
.Xr bread 3 .
.Pp
The function
.Fn cgread1
has semantically identical failure conditions to those of
.Fn cgread .
