Most of these functions are available from the C library, .Em libc . Other libraries, such as the math library, .Em libm , must be indicated at compile time with the .Fl l option of the compiler. .Pp The various libraries (followed by the loader flag): -.Bl -tag -width "libbluetooth (-lbluetooth)" -.It Em libbluetooth Pq Fl l Ns Ar bluetooth +.Bl -tag -width "libbluetooth" +.It Em libbluetooth +.Pq Fl l Ns Ar bluetooth The bluetooth library. See .Xr bluetooth 3 . -.It Em libc Pq Fl l Ns Ar c +.It Em libc +.Pq Fl l Ns Ar c Standard C library functions. When using the C compiler .Xr cc 1 , it is not necessary to supply the loader flag .Fl l Ns Ar c for these functions. There are several `libraries' or groups of functions included inside of .Em libc : .Bl -tag -width "XXXXXX" .It standard I/O routines see .Xr stdio 3 .It database routines see .Xr db 3 .It bit operators see .Xr bitstring 3 .It string operators see .Xr string 3 .It character tests and character operators .It storage allocation see .Xr mpool 3 .It regular-expressions see .Xr regex 3 .It remote procedure calls (RPC) see .Xr rpc 3 .It time functions see .Xr time 3 .It signal handling see .Xr signal 3 .El -.It Em libcalendar Pq Fl l Ns Ar calendar +.It Em libcalendar +.Pq Fl l Ns Ar calendar The calendar arithmetic library.

In particular, a number of system call interfaces provided in previous releases of .Bx have been included for source code compatibility. Use of these routines should, for the most part, be avoided. The manual page entry for each compatibility routine indicates the proper interface to use. -.It Em libdevinfo Pq Fl l Ns Ar devinfo +.It Em libdevinfo +.Pq Fl l Ns Ar devinfo The Device and Resource Information Utility library.
