PROLOG
       This manual page is part of the POSIX Programmer's Manual.  The Linux
       implementation of this interface may differ (consult the corresponding
       Linux manual page for details of Linux behavior), or the interface may
       not be implemented on Linux.

NAME
       utmpx.h — user accounting database definitions

SYNOPSIS
       #include <utmpx.h>

DESCRIPTION
       The <utmpx.h> header shall define the utmpx structure that shall
       include at least the following members:


	   char		   ut_user[]  User login name.
	   char		   ut_id[]    Unspecified initialization process identifier.
	   char		   ut_line[]  Device name.
	   pid_t	   ut_pid     Process ID.
	   short	   ut_type    Type of entry.
	   struct timeval  ut_tv      Time entry was made.

       The <utmpx.h> header shall define the pid_t type through typedef, as
       described in <sys/types.h>.

       The <utmpx.h> header shall define the timeval structure as described in
       <sys/time.h>.

       Inclusion of the <utmpx.h> header may also make visible all symbols
       from <sys/time.h>.

       The <utmpx.h> header shall define the following symbolic constants as
       possible values for the ut_type member of the utmpx structure:

       EMPTY	     No valid user accounting information.

       BOOT_TIME     Identifies time of system boot.

       OLD_TIME	     Identifies time when system clock changed.

       NEW_TIME	     Identifies time after system clock changed.

       USER_PROCESS  Identifies a process.

       INIT_PROCESS  Identifies a process spawned by the init process.

       LOGIN_PROCESS Identifies the session leader of a logged-in user.

       DEAD_PROCESS  Identifies a session leader who has exited.

       The following shall be declared as functions and may also be defined as
       macros. Function prototypes shall be provided.


	   void		 endutxent(void);
	   struct utmpx *getutxent(void);
	   struct utmpx *getutxid(const struct utmpx *);
	   struct utmpx *getutxline(const struct utmpx *);
	   struct utmpx *pututxline(const struct utmpx *);
	   void		 setutxent(void);
