\fB\fIproviderName\fR\fR
.ad
.RS 16n
The name of the provider for which data is being retrieved.
.RE

.sp
.ne 2
.na
\fB\fInvl\fR\fR
.ad
.RS 16n
A pointer to a pointer to an \fBnvlist_t\fR. On success, this will contain the

A pointer to a \fBuint64_t\fR allocated by the caller. On success, this will
contain a token for the returned data that can be used in a call to
\fBstmfSetProviderDataProt\fR(3STMF) to ensure that the data returned in this
call is not stale. If this value is \fINULL\fR, the token will be ignored.
