NAME

tsol_linkb- Concatenate two message blocks

SYNOPSIS

#include <sys/stream.h>

int tsol_linkb(mblk_t *mp1, mblk_t *mp2);

PARAMETERS

mp1

The message to which mp2 is to be added. mblk_t is an instance of the msgb(9S) structure.

mp2

The message to be added

DESCRIPTION

tsol_linkb() is a replacement for linkb(9F). tsol_linkb will return an error if the linking of two messages fails because of mismatched attributes; otherwise, tsol_linkb() performs like linkb(9F). tsol_linkb() creates a new message by adding mp2 to the tail of mp1. The continuation pointer, b_cont, of the first message is set to point to the second message: illustration.

Please refer to the printed version of this manual page for illustration.
