NAME

       libdlpi - Data Link Provider Interface (DLPI) library

SYNOPSIS

       cc [ flag... ] file... -ldlpi [ library... ]
       #include <libdlpi.h>

DESCRIPTION

       The  libdlpi library provides functions that support a programming interface for DLPI applications. The functions support only DLPI Version
       2 devices in connectionless mode.

INTERFACES

       The shared object libdlpi.so.1 provides the public interfaces defined below. See Intro(3)  for  additional  information	on  shared  object
       interfaces.

NAME

       dlpi_unbind - unbind DLPI handle

SYNOPSIS

       cc [ flag ... ] file ... -ldlpi [ library ... ]
       #include <libdlpi.h>

       int dlpi_unbind(dlpi_handle_t dh);

DESCRIPTION

       The  dlpi_unbind()  function  unbinds  to bind the DLPI handle dh from the bound SAP. The handle must be in the DL_IDLE DLPI state and upon
       success, the handle transitions to the DL_UNBOUND state.

       Upon success, the caller will no longer be able to send or receive data using the DLPI link associated with dh.

RETURN VALUES

       Upon success, DLPI_SUCCESS is returned. If DL_SYSERR is returned, errno contains the specific UNIX system error value.  Otherwise,  a  DLPI
       error value defined in <sys/dlpi.h> or an error value DLPI_ETIMEDOUT will be returned.

ERRORS

       DLPI_EBADMSG	 Bad DLPI message

       DLPI_EINHANDLE	 Invalid DLPI handle

       DLPI_ETIMEDOUT	 DLPI operation timed out
