net_routeto(9F) Kernel Functions for Drivers net_routeto(9F) NAME
net_routeto - indicate which network interface packets are sent SYNOPSIS
#include <sys/neti.h> phy_if_t net_routeto(const net_data_t *net, struct sockaddr *address, struct sockaddr *nexthop); INTERFACE LEVEL
Solaris DDI specific (Solaris DDI). PARAMETERS
net value returned from a successful call to net_protocol_lookup(9F). address network address to find a path out of the machine for. nexthop pointer to the sockaddr structure in which to store the address of the next hop. If this information is not required, the value NULL may be passed instead. DESCRIPTION
The net_routeto() function indicates which network interface packets destined for a particular address would be sent out of, according to the systems network routing tables. If next is supplied as a non-NULL pointer, the IP address of the nexthop router to be used is returned in it. RETURN VALUES
The net_routeto() function returns: -1 The network protocol does not support this function. 0 This function cannot find a route for the address given. >0 Indicates which network interface can be used to reach the given address. CONTEXT
The net_routeto() function may be called from user, kernel, or interrupt context. ATTRIBUTES

net_getifname(9F) Kernel Functions for Drivers net_getifname(9F) NAME
net_getifname - determine the name given to a network interface SYNOPSIS
#include <sys/neti.h> int net_getifname(const net_data_t net, const phy_if_t ifp, char *buffer, size_t buflen); INTERFACE LEVEL
Solaris DDI specific (Solaris DDI). PARAMETERS
net value returned from a successful call to net_protocol_lookup(9F). ifp value returned from a successful call to net_phylookup(9F) or net_phygetnext(9F). buffer pointer to the buffer in which to write the interface name. buflen size of the buffer in which to store the interface name. DESCRIPTION
The net_getifname() function copies the name of the network interface into the buffer provided. The name will always be null-terminated. If the buffer is too small to fit both the interface name and the null-terminated name, the name in the buffer is truncated to fit. See net_phygetnext(9F) for an example on how to use this function. RETURN VALUES
The net_getifname() function returns: -1 The network protocol does not support this function. 0 Successful completion. 1 Unsuccessful. CONTEXT
The net_getifname() function may be called from user, kernel, or interrupt context. ATTRIBUTES
