Data Structures for Drivers                        modlstrmod(9S)



NAME
     modlstrmod - linkage structure for loadable STREAMS modules

SYNOPSIS
     #include 


INTERFACE LEVEL
     Solaris DI specific (Solaris DI)

DESCRIPTION
     The modlstrmod structure  is  used  by  STREAMS  modules  to
     export module specific information to the kernel.

STRUCTURE MEMBERS
       struct modops     *strmodmodops;
       char               *strmodlinkinfo;
       struct fmodsw      *strmodfmodsw;


     strmodmodops       Must  always  be  initialized   to   the
                         address  of  modstrmodops. This identi-
                         fies the module as  a  loadable  STREAMS
                         module.


     strmodlinkinfo     Can be any string up  to  MODMAXNAMELEN,
                         and is used to describe the module. This
                         string  is  usually  the  name  of   the
                         module,  but  can contain other informa-
                         tion (such as a version number).


     strmodfmodsw       Is a pointer to a template  of  a  class
                         entry  within  the module that is copied
                         to the kernel's  class  table  when  the
                         module is loaded.
