INTERFACE LEVEL

       Solaris DDI specific (Solaris DDI)

PARAMETERS

       nvl	       The nvlist_t to be processed.

       nvp	       The nvpair_t (name-value pair) to be processed.

       name	       Name of the name-value pair (nvpair).

       nelem	       Number of elements in value (that is, array size).

       val	       Value or starting address of the array value.

DESCRIPTION

       These  functions  add  a  new  name-value  pair	to  an	nvlist_t.  The	memory allocation policy follows that specified in nvlist_alloc(),
       nvlist_unpack(), or nvlist_dup(). See nvlist_alloc(9F). The uniqueness of nvpair name and data types follows the nvflag argument  specified
       in nvlist_alloc().

       If NV_UNIQUE_NAME was specified for nvflag, existing nvpairs with matching names are removed before the new nvpair is added.

       If  NV_UNIQUE_NAME_TYPE	was specified for nvflag, existing nvpairs with matching names and data types are removed before the new nvpair is
       added.

       If neither was specified for nvflag, the new nvpair is unconditionally added at the end of the list. The library preserves the order of the
       name-value pairs across packing, unpacking, and duplication.

       Multiple  threads can simultaneously read the same nvlist_t, but only one thread may actively change a given nvlist_t at a time. The caller
       is responsible for the synchronization.

       The  nvlist_add_boolean() function is  deprecated and  the nvlist_add_boolean_value() function is used instead.

RETURN VALUES

       0	       success

       EINVAL	       invalid argument

       ENOMEM	       insufficient memory

CONTEXT

       These functions can be called from interrupt context only if(1) the default allocator is used and the KM_NOSLEEP flag is set, or(2)  the
       specified allocator did not sleep for free memory (for example, if it uses a pre-allocated buffer for memory allocations).

       See  nvlist_alloc(9F)  for  a  description  of  pluggable allocators and KM_NOSLEEP. These functions can be called from user context in all
       cases.
