Requests information about the Data Link Provider Interface (DLPI) stream.
The message consists of one M_PCPROTO message block, which contains the following structure:
typedef struct
{
ulong dl_primitive;
} dl_info_req_t;
This structure is defined in /usr/include/sys/dlpi.h.
The DL_INFO_REQ primitive requests information from the data link service (DLS) provider about the DLPI stream. This information includes a set of provider-specific parameters, as well as the current state of the interface.
| dl_primitive | Conveys the DL_INFO_REQ primitive. |
| Valid | The primitive is valid in any state in which a local acknowledgment is not pending. |
| New | The resulting state is unchanged. |
The DLS provider responds to the information request with a DL_INFO_ACK primitive.
This primitive is part of Base Operating System (BOS) Runtime.
The DL_INFO_ACK primitive.
