modldrv(9S) Data Structures for Drivers modldrv(9S)NAMEmodldrv - linkage structure for loadable drivers
SYNOPSIS
#include <sys/modctl.h>
INTERFACE LEVEL
Solaris DDI specific (Solaris DDI)
DESCRIPTION
The modldrv structure is used by device drivers to export driver spe‐
cific information to the kernel.
STRUCTURE MEMBERS
struct mod_ops *drv_modops;
char *drv_linkinfo;
struct dev_ops *drv_dev_ops;
drv_modops Must always be initialized to the address of
mod_driverops. This member identifies the module as a
loadable driver.
drv_linkinfo Can be any string up to MODMAXNAMELEN characters
(including the terminating NULL character), and is used
to describe the module and its version number. This is
usually the name of the driver and module version
information, but can contain other information as well.
drv_dev_ops Pointer to the driver's dev_ops(9S) structure.
