PARAMETERS
nvlp Address of a pointer to nvlist_t.
nvflag Specify bit fields defining nvlist properties:
NV_UNIQUE_NAME The nvpair names are unique.
NV_UNIQUE_NAME_TYPE Name-data type combination is
unique.
See nvlist_add_boolean_value(3NVPAIR) for a description of
these flags values, and for behavior when neither is speci‐
fied.
flag Specify 0. Reserved for future use.
nvl The nvlist_t to be processed.
dst The destination nvlist_t.
size Pointer to buffer to contain the encoded size.
bufp Address of buffer to pack nvlist into. Must be 8-byte
aligned. If NULL, library will allocate memory.
buf Buffer containing packed nvlist.
buflen Size of buffer bufp or buf points to.
encoding Encoding method for packing.
nvo Pluggable allocator operations pointer (nv_alloc_ops_t).
nva A pointer to an nv_alloc_t structure to be used for the
specified nvlist_t.
DESCRIPTION
List Manipulation
The nvlist_alloc() function allocates a new name-value pair list and
updates nvlp to point to the handle. The nvflag argument specifies
nvlist properties to remain persistent across packing, unpacking, and
duplication. 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. See nvlist_add_byte(3NVPAIR) for more information.
The nvlist_xalloc() function is identical to nvlist_alloc() except that
nvlist_xalloc() can use a different allocator, as described in the
Pluggable Allocators section.
The nvlist_free() function frees a name-value pair list.
The nvlist_nvflag() function returns the nvflag value for the nvlist,
specified when it was allocated using nvlist_alloc() or nvlist_xal‐
loc().
The nvlist_size() function returns the minimum size of a contiguous
buffer large enough to pack nvl. The encoding parameter specifies the
method of encoding when packing nvl. Supported encoding methods are:
NV_ENCODE_NATIVE Straight bcopy() as described in bcopy(3C).
NV_ENCODE_XDR Use XDR encoding, suitable for sending to another
host.
The nvlist_pack() function packs nvl into contiguous memory starting at
*bufp. The encoding parameter specifies the method of encoding (see
above).
o If *bufp is not NULL, *bufp is expected to be a caller-allo‐
cated buffer of size *buflen.
o If *bufp is NULL, the library will allocate memory and up‐
date *bufp to point to the memory and update *buflen to con‐
tain the size of the allocated memory.
The nvlist_xpack() function is identical to nvlist_pack() except that
nvlist_xpack() can use a different allocator.
The nvlist_unpack() function takes a buffer with a packed nvlist_t and
unpacks it into a searchable nvlist_t. The library allocates memory for
nvlist_t. The caller is responsible for freeing the memory by calling
nvlist_free().
The nvlist_xunpack() function is identical to nvlist_unpack() except
that nvlist_xunpack() can use a different allocator.
The nvlist_dup() function makes a copy of nvl and updates nvlp to point
to the copy.
The nvlist_xdup() function is identical to nvlist_dup() except that
nvlist_xdup() can use a different allocator.
The nvlist_merge() function adds copies of all name-value pairs from
nvl to dst. Name-value pairs in dst are replaced with name-value pairs
from nvl that have identical names (if dst has the type NV_UNIQUE_NAME)
or identical names and types (if dst has the type NV_UNIQUE_NAME_TYPE).
The nvlist_lookup_nv_alloc() function retrieves the pointer to the al‐
locator that was used when manipulating a name-value pair list.
Pluggable Allocators
Using Pluggable Allocators
The nv_alloc_init(), nv_alloc_reset() and nv_alloc_fini() functions
provide an interface to specify the allocator to be used when manipu‐
lating a name-value pair list.
The nv_alloc_init() function determines the allocator properties and
puts them into the nva argument. The application must specify the
nv_arg and nvo arguments and an optional variable argument list. The
optional arguments are passed to the (*nv_ao_init()) function.
The nva argument must be passed to nvlist_xalloc(), nvlist_xpack(),
nvlist_xunpack() and nvlist_xdup().
The nv_alloc_reset() function is responsible for resetting the alloca‐
tor properties to the data specified by nv_alloc_init(). When no
(*nv_ao_reset()) function is specified, nv_alloc_reset() has no effect.
The nv_alloc_fini() function destroys the allocator properties deter‐
mined by nv_alloc_init(). When a (*nv_ao_fini()) function is specified,
it is called from nv_alloc_fini().
The disposition of the allocated objects and the memory used to store
them is left to the allocator implementation.
The nv_alloc_nosleep nv_alloc_t can be used with nvlist_xalloc() to
mimic the behavior of nvlist_alloc().
The nvpair allocator framework provides a pointer to the operation
structure of a fixed buffer allocator. This allocator, nv_fixed_ops,
uses a pre-allocated buffer for memory allocations. It is intended pri‐
marily for kernel use and is described on nvlist_alloc(9F).
An example program that uses the pluggable allocator functionality is
provided on nvlist_alloc(9F).
Creating Pluggable Allocators
Any producer of name-value pairs can specify its own allocator func‐
tions. The application must provide the following pluggable allocator
operations:
int (*nv_ao_init)(nv_alloc_t *nva, va_list nv_valist);
void (*nv_ao_fini)(nv_alloc_t *nva);
void *(*nv_ao_alloc)(nv_alloc_t *nva, size_t sz);
void (*nv_ao_reset)(nv_alloc_t *nva);
void (*nv_ao_free)(nv_alloc_t *nva, void *buf, size_t sz);
The nva argument of the allocator implementation is always the first
argument.
The optional (*nv_ao_init()) function is responsible for filling the
data specified by nv_alloc_init() into the nva_arg argument. The
(*nv_ao_init()) function is only called when nv_alloc_init() is exe‐
cuted.
The optional (*nv_ao_fini()) function is responsible for the cleanup of
the allocator implementation. It is called by nv_alloc_fini().
The required (*nv_ao_alloc()) function is used in the nvpair allocation
framework for memory allocation. The sz argument specifies the size of
the requested buffer.
The optional (*nv_ao_reset()) function is responsible for resetting the
nva_arg argument to the data specified by nv_alloc_init().
The required (*nv_ao_free()) function is used in the nvpair allocator
framework for memory deallocation. The buf argument is a pointer to a
block previously allocated by the (*nv_ao_alloc()) function. The size
argument sz must exactly match the original allocation.
The disposition of the allocated objects and the memory used to store
them is left to the allocator implementation.
RETURN VALUES
These functions return 0 on success and an error value on failure.
The nvlist_lookup_nv_alloc() function returns a pointer to an alloca‐
tor.
ERRORS
These functions will fail if:
EINVAL There is an invalid argument.
The nvlist_alloc(), nvlist_dup(), nvlist_pack(), nvlist_unpack(),
nvlist_merge(), nvlist_xalloc(), nvlist_xdup(), nvlist_xpack(), and
nvlist_xunpack() functions will fail if:
ENOMEM There is insufficient memory.
The nvlist_pack(), nvlist_unpack(), nvlist_xpack(), and nvlist_xun‐
pack() functions will fail if:
EFAULT An encode/decode error occurs.
ENOTSUP An encode/decode method is not supported.
