The mac_init_ops() and mac_fini_ops() Functions

void mac_init_ops(struct dev_ops *ops, const char *name);

A GLDv3 device driver must invoke the mac_init_ops(9F) function in its _init(9E) entry point before calling mod_install(9F).

void mac_fini_ops(struct dev_ops *ops);

A GLDv3 device driver must invoke the mac_fini_ops(9F) function in its _fini(9E) entry point after calling mod_remove(9F).

Example 19–1 The mac_init_ops() and mac_fini_ops() Functions

int
_init(void)
{
        int     rv;
        mac_init_ops(&xx_devops, "xx");
        if ((rv = mod_install(&xx_modlinkage)) != DDI_SUCCESS) {
                mac_fini_ops(&xx_devops);
        }
        return (rv);
}

int
_fini(void)
{
        int     rv;
        if ((rv = mod_remove(&xx_modlinkage)) == DDI_SUCCESS) {
                mac_fini_ops(&xx_devops);
        }
        return (rv);
}
