The uuid_compare() function compares two
    UUIDs. It returns -1 if uuid1 precedes
    uuid2, 0 if they are equal, or 1 if
    uuid1 follows uuid2.
The uuid_create() function creates a new
    UUID. Storage for the new UUID must be pre-allocated by the caller.
The uuid_create_nil() function creates a
    nil-valued UUID. Storage for the new UUID must be pre-allocated by the
    caller.
The uuid_equal() function compares two
    UUIDs to determine if they are equal. It returns 1 if they are equal, and 0
    if they are not equal.
The uuid_from_string() function parses a
    36-character string representation of a UUID and converts it to binary
    representation. Storage for the UUID must be pre-allocated by the
  caller.
The uuid_hash() function generates a hash
    value for the specified UUID. Note that the hash value is not a
    cryptographic hash, and should not be assumed to be unique given two
    different UUIDs.
The uuid_is_nil() function returns 1 if
    the UUID is nil-valued and 0 if it is not.
The uuid_to_string() function converts a
    UUID from binary representation to string representation. Storage for the
    string is dynamically allocated and returned via the
    str argument. This pointer should be passed to
    free(3) to release the allocated
    storage when it is no longer needed.
The uuid_enc_le() and
    uuid_enc_be() functions encode a binary
    representation of a UUID into an octet stream in little-endian and
    big-endian byte-order, respectively. The destination buffer must be
    pre-allocated by the caller, and must be large enough to hold the 16-octet
    binary UUID.
The uuid_dec_le() and
    uuid_dec_be() functions decode a UUID from an octet
    stream in little-endian and big-endian byte-order, respectively.
uuid_compare(),
  uuid_create(),
  uuid_create_nil(),
  uuid_equal(),
  uuid_from_string(),
  uuid_hash(), uuid_is_nil(),
  and uuid_to_string() functions return successful or
  unsuccessful completion status in the status argument.
  Possible values are:
uuid_s_okuuid_s_bad_versionuuid_s_invalid_string_uuiduuid_s_no_memoryuuid_compare(),
  uuid_create(),
  uuid_create_nil(),
  uuid_equal(),
  uuid_from_string(),
  uuid_hash(), uuid_is_nil(),
  and uuid_to_string() functions are compatible with the
  DCE 1.1 RPC specification.
