OTHERQ(9F)						   Kernel Functions for Drivers 						OTHERQ(9F)

NAME
       OTHERQ, otherq - get pointer to queue's partner queue

SYNOPSIS
       #include <sys/stream.h>
       #include <sys/ddi.h>

       queue_t *OTHERQ(queue_t *q);

INTERFACE LEVEL
       Architecture independent level 1 (DDI/DKI).

PARAMETERS
       q	Pointer to the queue.

DESCRIPTION
       The  OTHERQ()  function returns a pointer to the other of the two queue structures that make up a STREAMS module or driver.  If q points to
       the read queue the write queue will be returned, and vice versa.

RETURN VALUES
       OTHERQ() returns a pointer to a queue's partner.

CONTEXT
       OTHERQ() can be called from user or interrupt context.

EXAMPLES
       Example 1: Setting Queues

       This routine sets the minimum packet size, the maximum packet size, the high water mark, and the low water mark	for  the  read	and  write
       queues  of  a given module or driver. It is passed either one of the queues.  This could be used if a module or driver wished to update its
       queue parameters dynamically.
