Sample Multithreaded Device Driver Using a Per Module Inner Perimeter

Example 60, Multithreaded, Loadable, STREAMS Pseudo-Driver is a sample multithreaded, loadable, STREAMS pseudo-driver. The driver MT design is the simplest possible based on using a per module inner perimeter. Thus, only one thread can execute in the driver at any time. In addition, a quntimeout synchronous callback routine is used. The driver cancels an outstanding qtimeout by calling quntimeout in the close routine. For more information, see close Race Conditions. For more information, see the quntimeout(9F) and qtimeout(9F) man page.
