doconfig - execute a configuration script
# include <sac.h>
int doconfig(int fd, char *script, long rflag);
doconfig is a Service Access Facility library function that interprets
the configuration scripts contained in the files /etc/saf/pmtag<b>/_config,
/etc/saf/_sysconfig, and /etc/saf/pmtag/svctag.
script is the name of the configuration script; fd is a file descriptor
that designates the stream to which stream manipulation operations are to
be applied; rflag is a bitmask that indicates the mode in which script is
to be interpreted. rflag may take two values, NORUN and NOASSIGN, which
may be or'd. If rflag is zero, all commands in the configuration script
are eligible to be interpreted. If rflag has the NOASSIGN bit set, the
assign command is considered illegal and will generate an error return.
If rflag has the NORUN bit set, the run and runwait commands are
considered illegal and will generate error returns.
The configuration language in which script is written consists of a
sequence of commands, each of which is interpreted separately. The
following reserved keywords are defined: assign, push, pop, runwait, and
run. The comment character is #; when a # occurs on a line, everything
from that point to the end of the line is ignored. Blank lines are not
significant. No line in a command script may exceed 1024 characters.
assign variable=value
Used to define environment variables. variable is the name of the
environment variable and value is the value to be assigned to it.
The value assigned must be a string constant; no form of parameter
substitution is available. value may be quoted. The quoting rules
are those used by the shell for defining environment variables.
assign will fail if space cannot be allocated for the new variable
or if any part of the specification is invalid.
push module1[, module2, module3, . . .]
Used to push STREAMS modules onto the stream designated by fd.
module1 is the name of the first module to be pushed, module2 is the
name of the second module to be pushed, etc. The command will fail
if any of the named modules cannot be pushed. If a module cannot be
pushed, the subsequent modules on the same command line will be
ignored and modules that have already been pushed will be popped.
pop [module]
Used to pop STREAMS modules off the designated stream. If pop is
invoked with no arguments, the top module on the stream is popped.
If an argument is given, modules will be popped one at a time until
the named module is at the top of the stream. If the named module
is not on the designated stream, the stream is left as it was and

the command fails. If module is the special keyword ALL, then all
modules on the
stream will be popped. Note that only modules above the topmost
driver are affected.
runwait command
The runwait command runs a command and waits for it to complete.
command is the pathname of the command to be run. The command is
run with /usr/bin/sh -c prepended to it; shell scripts may thus be
executed from configuration scripts. The runwait command will fail
if command cannot be found or cannot be executed, or if command
exits with a non-zero status.
run command
The run command is identical to runwait except that it does not wait
for command to complete. command is the pathname of the command to
be run. run will not fail unless it is unable to create a child
process to execute the command.
Although they are syntactically indistinguishable, some of the commands
available to run and runwait are interpreter built-in commands.
Interpreter built-ins are used when it is necessary to alter the state of
a process within the context of that process. The doconfig interpreter
built-in commands are similar to the shell special commands and, like
these, they do not spawn another process for execution. See sh(1). The
initial set of built-in commands is:
cd
ulimit
umask
doconfig returns 0 if the script was interpreted successfully. If a
command in the script fails, the interpretation of the script ceases at
that point and a positive number is returned; this number indicates which
line in the script failed. If a system error occurs, a value of -1 is
returned. When a script fails, the process whose environment was being
established should not be started.
