+.SH DESCRIPTION
+.sp
+.LP
+The \fBesbbcall()\fR function, like \fBbufcall\fR(9F), serves as a
+\fBtimeout\fR(9F) call of indeterminate length. If \fBesballoc\fR(9F) is unable
+to allocate a message and data block header to go with its externally supplied
+data buffer, \fBesbbcall()\fR can be used to schedule the routine \fIfunc\fR,
+to be called with the argument \fIarg\fR when a buffer becomes available. The
+\fIfunc\fR argument can be a routine that calls \fBesballoc\fR(9F) or it may be
+another kernel function.
+.SH RETURN VALUES
+.sp
+.LP
+On success, a \fBbufcall\fR \fBID\fRis returned. On failure, \fB0\fR is
+returned. The value returned from a successful call should be saved for
+possible future use with \fBunbufcall()\fR should it become necessary to cancel
+the \fBesbbcall()\fR request (as at driver close time).
+.SH CONTEXT
+.sp
+.LP
+The \fBesbbcall()\fR function can be called from user, interrupt, or kernel
+context.
