+.Sh NAME
+.Nm au_fetch_tok ,
+.Nm au_print_tok ,
+.Nm au_read_rec
+.Nd "Perform I/O involving an audit record"
+.Sh LIBRARY
+.Lb libbsm
+.Sh SYNOPSIS
+.In libbsm.h
+.Ft int
+.Fn au_fetch_tok "tokenstr_t *tok" "u_char *buf" "int len"
+.Ft void
+.Fn au_print_tok "FILE outfp" "tokenstr_t *tok" "char *del" "char raw" "char sfrm"
+.Ft int
+.Fn au_read_rec "FILE *fp" "u_char **buf"
+.Sh DESCRIPTION
+These interfaces support input and output (I/O) involving audit records,
+internalizing an audit record from a byte stream, converting a token to
+either a raw or default string, and reading a single record from a file.
+.Pp
+.Fn au_fetch_tok
+reads a token from the passed buffer
+.Va buf
+of length
+.Va len
+bytes, and returns a pointer to the token via
+.Va tok .
+.Pp
+.Fn au_print_tok
+prints a string form of the token
+.Va tok
+to the file output stream
+.Va outfp,
+either in default mode, or raw mode if
+.Va raw
+is set non-zero.
+The delimiter
+.Va del
+is used when printing.
+.Pp
+.Fn au_read_rec
+reads an audit record from the file stream
+.Va fp ,
+and returns an allocated memory buffer containing the record via
+.Va *buf ,
+which must be freed by the caller using
+.Xr free 3 .
+.Pp
+A typical use of these routines might open a file with
+.Xr fopen 3 ,
+then read records from the file sequentially by calling
+.Fn au_read_rec .
+Each record would be broken down into components tokens through sequential
+calls to
+.Fn au_fetch_tok
+on the buffer, and then invoking
+.Fn au_print_tok
+to print each token to an output stream such as
+.Dv stdout .
+On completion of the processing of each record, a call to
+.Xr free 3
+would be used to free the record buffer.
+Finally, the source stream would be closed by a call to
+.Xr fclose 3 .
+.Sh RETURN VALUES
+.Fn au_fetch_tok
+and
+.Fn au_read_rec
+return 0 on success, or -1 on failure along with additional error information
+returned via
+.Va errno .
+.Sh SEE ALSO
+.Xr free 3 ,
+.Xr libbsm 3
+.Sh AUTHORS
+This software was created by Robert Watson, Wayne Salamon, and Suresh
+Krishnaswamy for McAfee Research, the security research division of McAfee,
+Inc., under contract to Apple Computer, Inc.
+.Pp
+The Basic Security Module (BSM) interface to audit records and audit event
+stream format were defined by Sun Microsystems.
+.Sh HISTORY
+The OpenBSM implementation was created by McAfee Research, the security
+division of McAfee Inc., under contract to Apple Computer, Inc., in 2004.
+It was subsequently adopted by the TrustedBSD Project as the foundation for
+the OpenBSM distribution.
+.Sh BUGS
+.Va errno
+may not always be properly set in the event of an error.
