  NAME

    bcmp() - compare byte string

  SYNOPSIS

    #include 

    int bcmp (const void *b1, const void *b2, size_t len)

  DESCRIPTION

    The bcmp(3) function compares byte string b1 against byte string b2,
    returning zero if they are identical, non-zero otherwise. Both strings are
    assumed to be len bytes long. Zero-length strings are always identical.

    The strings may overlap.
