 int nvlist_add_string_array(nvlist_t *nvl, char *name, char **val, uint_t nelem);

INTERFACE LEVEL

 

Solaris DDI specific (Solaris DDI)

PARAMETERS

 

nvl
The nvlist_t to be processed.
name
Name of the name-value pair (nvpair).
nelem
Number of elements in value (that is, array size).
val
Value or starting address of the array value.

DESCRIPTION

 

These functions adds a new name-value pair to nvlist_t. The memory allocation policy follows that specified in nvlist_alloc(), nvlist_unpack(), or nvlist_dup(). See nvlist_alloc(9F). The uniqueness of nvpair name and data types follow the nvflag argument specified in nvlist_alloc().

If NV_UNIQUE_NAME was specified for nvflag, existing nvpairs with matching names are removed before the new nvpair is added.

If NV_UNIQUE_NAME_TYPE was specified for nvflag, existing nvpairs with matching names and data types are removed before the new nvpair is added.

If neither was specified for nvflag, the new nvpair is unconditionally added at the end of the list. The library preserves the order of the name-value pairs across packing, unpacking, and duplication.

RETURN VALUES

 

0
success
EINVAL
invalid argument
ENOMEM
insufficient memory

CONTEXT

 

These functions can be called from interrupt context only if the nvlist_t was allocated with the KM_NOSLEEP flag set. See nvlist_alloc(9F) for a description of KM_NOSLEEP. These functions can be called from user context in all cases.
