di_devlink_walk(3DEVINFO)			       Device Information Library Functions				 di_devlink_walk(3DEVINFO)

NAME

       di_devlink_walk - walk through links in a devlink snapshot

SYNOPSIS

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

       int di_devlink_walk(di_devlink_handle_t hdl,const char *re,
	    const char *mpath, uint_t flags, void *arg,
	    int (*devlink_callback)(di_devlink_t devlink, void *arg));

PARAMETERS

       hdl	  A handle to a snapshot of devlinks in "/dev".

       re	  An  extended	regular  expression  as  specified in regex(5) describing the paths of devlinks to visit. A null value matches all
		  devlinks.  The expression should not involve the "/dev" prefix. For example, the "^dsk/" will invoke devlink_callback() for  all
		  "/dev/dsk/" links.

       mpath	  A  path  to  a  minor node below "/devices" for which "/dev" links are to be looked up. A null value selects all devlinks.  This
		  path should not have a "/devices" prefix.

       flags	  Specify the type of devlinks to be selected.	If DI_PRIMARY_LINK is used, only primary links (for instance,  links  which  point
		  only	to "/devices" entries) are selected. If DI_SECONDARY_LINK is specified, only secondary links (for instance, devlinks which
		  point to other devlinks) are selected. If neither flag is specified, all devlinks are selected.

       arg	  A pointer to caller private data.

       devlink	  The devlink being visited.

DESCRIPTION

       The di_devlink_walk() function visits every link in the snapshot that meets the criteria specified by the caller. For  each  such  devlink,
       the caller-supplied function devlink_callback() is invoked. The return value of	devlink_callback() determines subsequent walk behavior.

RETURN VALUES

       Upon success, the di_devlink_walk() function returns 0. Otherwise, -1 is returned and errno is set to indicate the error.

       The devlink_callback() function can return the following values:

       DI_WALK_CONTINUE     Continue walking.

       DI_WALK_TERMINATE    Terminate the walk immediately.

ERRORS

       The devlink_callback() function will fail if:

       EINVAL	 One or more arguments is invalid.

       ENOMEM	 Insufficient memory is available.

di_devlink_dup(3DEVINFO)			       Device Information Library Functions				  di_devlink_dup(3DEVINFO)

NAME

       di_devlink_dup, di_devlink_free - copy and free a devlink object

SYNOPSIS

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

       di_devlink_t di_devlink_dup(di_devlink_t devlink);

       int di_devlink_free(di_devlink_t devlink);

PARAMETERS

       devlink	  An opaque handle to a devlink.

DESCRIPTION

       Typically,  a  di_devlink_t  object  is	only  accessible  from	within	the  scope of the di_devlink_walk(3DEVINFO) callback function. The
       di_devlink_dup() function allows the callback function implementation to make a duplicate copy of the di_devlink_t  object.  The  duplicate
       copy is valid and accessible until di_devlink_free() is called.

       The di_devlink_dup() function returns a copy of a devlink object. The di_devlink_free() function frees this copy.

RETURN VALUES

       Upon  successful completion, di_devlink_dup() returns a copy of the devlink object passed in.  Otherwise, NULL is returned and errno is set
       to indicate the error.

       Upon successful completion, di_devlink_free() returns 0. Otherwise, -1 is returned and errno is set to indicate the error.

ERRORS

       The di_devlink_dup() and di_devlink_free() functions will fail if:

       EINVAL	 The devlink argument is not a valid handle.

       The di_devlink_dup() function can set errno to any error value that can also be set by malloc(3C).
