kstat2_template - structure for creating templated kstats

Solaris DDI specific (Solaris DDI)
Templates enable simplified creation of v2 kstats by providing much of the information needed to create the kstat in a static structure rather than as individual arguments to a function.
A number of templates are defined by the kstats framework which support the creation of common kstats such as those whose v1 kstat types were KSTAT_TYPE_IO and KSTAT_TYPE_INTR. Kstats using these templates are created using kstat2_lookup_template(9F) function with the appropriate kstat2_metatype_t value followed by a call to kstat2_create_with_template(9F) function.
Driver developers can also create their own templates. This would typically be useful in cases where modules/drivers share kstat layouts or where a driver creates and deletes a kstat regularly. Such kstats can be created by passing a pointer to a kstat2_template structure to kstat2_create_with_template(9F).
The public members of a kstat template are:
kstat2_named_t *template; /* Templated kstat data */ uchar_t ndata; /* # of kvals in template */ kstat2_md_t *metadata; /* Pointer to metadata for each of the named kvals */
template is an array of kstat2_named structures of length ndata. For kstats whose storage is managed by the framework, this templated data is copied into the kstat's ks2_data buffer when the kstat is created. Otherwise, the templated data is copied into the user's private data structure if its address is passed as the last parameter to kstat2_create_with_template(9F).
ndata is the number of kvals in template.
metadata is a pointer to the metadata for the kstats. This array must have the same number of elements as the kvals array and must be in the same order as the kvals array.
/*
* Assume the template has been created elsewhere and
* contains the definitions for two name-value pairs.
