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.
