Troubleshooting Interface Configuration - Oracle Solaris Administration: Network Interfaces and Network Virtualization says:

IP address cannot be assigned with the ipadm create-addr command.

With the traditional ifconfig command, you can plumb and assign an IP address with a single command syntax. When using the ipadm create-addr command to configure an IP address, you must first create the IP interface with a separate command.
# ipadm create-ip interface# ipadm create-addr -T addr-type -a address addrobjThe message cannot create address object: Invalid argument provided is displayed during IP address configuration.

The address object identifies a specific IP address bound to an IP interface. The address object is a unique identifier for each IP address on the IP interface. You must specify a different address object to identify a second IP address that you want to assign to the same IP interface. If you want to use the same address object name, then you must delete the first instance of the address object before assigning it to identify a different IP address.

IS_KSEG_VA(9r)															    IS_KSEG_VA(9r)

NAME

       IS_KSEG_VA, IS_SEG0_VA, IS_SEG1_VA - General: Determine if the specified address is located in the kernel-unmapped address space, the user-
       mapped address space, and the kernel-mapped address space.

SYNOPSIS

       void IS_KSEG_VA(
	       unsigned long addr ); void IS_SEG0_VA(
	       unsigned long addr ); void IS_SEG1_VA(
	       unsigned long addr );

ARGUMENTS

       Specifies the virtual address.

DESCRIPTION

       The IS_KSEG_VA routine determines if the specified address is located in the kernel-unmapped address space. The IS_SEG0_VA  routine  deter-
       mines  if  the specified address is located in the user-mapped address space. The IS_SEG1_VA routine determines if the specified address is
       located in the kernel-mapped address space.

RETURN VALUES

       None

EXAMPLE

       The following code fragment shows a call to IS_KSEG_VA:

       .  .  .

       caddr_t virt_addr;  [1] unsigned phys_addr; [2]

       .  .  .

	   if(IS_KSEG_VA(virt_addr)) { [3]
	       phys_addr = KSEG_TO_PHYS(virt_addr); [4]

       .  .  .

       Declares a variable to store the user  buffer's	virtual  address.   Declares  a  variable  to  store  the  physical  address  returned	by
       KSEG_TO_PHYS.  Before calling KSEG_TO_PHYS, calls IS_KSEG_VA to determine if the virtual address is from the kernel-unmapped address space.
       If the virtual address is from the kernel-unmapped address space, then calls KSEG_TO_PHYS to convert the address to a corresponding  physi-
       cal address.
