+.SH DESCRIPTION
+.sp
+.LP
+For device nodes whose \fBnodeid\fR value is \fBDI_PROM_NODEID\fR (see
+\fBdi_nodeid\fR(3DEVINFO)), additional properties can be retrieved from the
+\fBPROM\fR. The \fBdi_prom_init()\fR function returns a handle that is used to
+retrieve such properties. This handle is passed to
+\fBdi_prom_prop_lookup_bytes\fR(3DEVINFO) and
+\fBdi_prom_prop_next\fR(3DEVINFO).
+.sp
+.LP
+The \fBdi_prom_fini()\fR function destroys the handle  and all handles to the
+\fBPROM\fR device information obtained from that handle.
+.SH RETURN VALUES
+.sp
+.LP
+Upon successful completion, \fBdi_prom_init()\fR returns a handle. Otherwise,
+\fBDI_PROM_HANDLE_NIL\fR is returned and \fBerrno\fR is set to indicate the
+error.
+.SH ERRORS
+.sp
+.LP
+The \fBdi_prom_init()\fR sets \fBerrno\fR function to any error code that can
+also be set by \fBopenprom\fR(7D) or \fBmalloc\fR(3C).
