STRSTR(3P)              POSIX Programmer's Manual             STRSTR(3P)

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

       strstr — find a substring

SYNOPSIS

       #include <string.h>

       char *strstr(const char *s1, const char *s2);

DESCRIPTION

       The functionality described on this reference page is aligned
       with the ISO C standard. Any conflict between the requirements
       described here and the ISO C standard is unintentional. This
       volume of POSIX.1‐2017 defers to the ISO C standard.

       The strstr() function shall locate the first occurrence in the
       string pointed to by s1 of the sequence of bytes (excluding the
       terminating NUL character) in the string pointed to by s2.

RETURN VALUE

       Upon successful completion, strstr() shall return a pointer to
       the located string or a null pointer if the string is not found.

       If s2 points to a string with zero length, the function shall
       return s1.
