function field_info_fields in Drupal 7

Returns all field definitions.

Use of this function should be avoided when possible, since it loads and statically caches a potentially large array of information. Use field_info_field_map() instead.

When iterating over the fields present in a given bundle after a call to field_info_instances($entity_type, $bundle), it is recommended to use field_info_field() on each individual field instead.

Return value

An array of field definitions, keyed by field name. Each field has an additional property, 'bundles', which is an array of all the bundles to which this field belongs keyed by entity type.
