INTERFACE LEVEL
PARAMETERS
-
nvpair
-
Name-value pair (nvpair) to be processed.
-
nelem
-
Address to store the number of elements in value.
-
val
-
Address to store the value or starting address of array value.
DESCRIPTION
These functions retrieve the value of nvpair. The data type of nvpair must match the function name for the call to be successful.
There is no nvpair_value_boolean(); the existence of the name implies the value is true.
For array data types, including string, the memory containing the data is managed by the library and references to the value remains valid until nvlist_free() is called on the nvlist_t from which nvpair is obtained. See nvlist_free(9F)
RETURN VALUES
-
0
-
Success
-
EINVAL
-
Either one of the arguments is NULL or type of nvpair does not match the interface name.
