I've updated the libdlpi architecture document and proposed API manpages
of libdlpi.so and are available at :
http://www.opensolaris.org/os/project/clearview/libdlpi
A summary of the changes are:
* removed timeout argument from dlpi_open() and changed default timeout
value to DLPI_DEF_TIMEOUT.
* added a new flag option DLPI_NATIVE (native mode) to dlpi_open().
* added reference in PSARC document (1.7) for event-driven application with
respect to dlpi_fd() uses.
* the suggestion to changing timeout to be in millisec instead of
seconds was
not made due to the nature of DLPI operations that sometimes may not be
performed in a reliable manner in a granularity of milliseconds.
Note that these documents are being written for PSARC review, and
therefore refer to other PSARC cases which aren't yet available to the
community. As such, please let us know if you need additional details
to understand those references.
Thank you for your comments.
