The <replaceable>value</replaceable> part may be anything, including binary. Parameter - <parameter>size</parameter> specifies the number of bytes in <parameter>data</parameter> - (i.e. the length of <replaceable>FIELD</replaceable>, plus one, plus the length of - <replaceable>value</replaceable>). Parameter <parameter>size</parameter> may also be - specified as <constant>0</constant>, in which case <parameter>data</parameter> - must be a <constant>NUL</constant>-terminated string, and the bytes before the terminating - zero are used as the match.</para> - - <para>If a match is applied, only entries with this field set - will be iterated. Multiple matches may be active at the same time: - If they apply to different fields, only entries with both fields - set like this will be iterated.
