On success,udev_list_entry_get_next()andudev_list_entry_get_by_name()return a pointer to the requested list entry. If no such entry can be found, or on failure,NULLis returned. On success,udev_list_entry_get_name()andudev_list_entry_get_value()return a pointer to a constant string representing the requested value. The string is bound to the lifetime of the list entry itself. On failure,NULLis returned.
udev_list_entry_get_next(),udev_list_entry_get_by_name(),udev_list_entry_get_name(), andudev_list_entry_get_value()were added in version 221.
