NAME

       di_prom_init, di_prom_fini - create and destroy a handle to the PROM device information

SYNOPSIS

       cc [ flag... ] file... -ldevinfo [ library... ]
       #include <libdevinfo.h>

       di_prom_handle_t di_prom_init(void);

       void di_prom_fini(di_prom_handle_t  ph);

PARAMETERS

       ph	Handle to prom returned by di_prom_init().

DESCRIPTION

       For device nodes whose nodeid value is DI_PROM_NODEID (see  di_nodeid(3DEVINFO)), additional properties can be retrieved from the PROM. The
       di_prom_init() function returns a handle that is used to retrieve such properties. This handle is passed to di_prom_prop_lookup_bytes(3DEV-
       INFO) and di_prom_prop_next(3DEVINFO).

       The di_prom_fini() function destroys the handle	and all handles to the PROM device information obtained from that handle.

RETURN VALUES

       Upon  successful  completion,  di_prom_init()  returns a handle. Otherwise, DI_PROM_HANDLE_NIL is returned and errno is set to indicate the
       error.

ERRORS

       The di_prom_init() sets errno function to any error code that can also be set by openprom(7D) or malloc(3C).
