.TH VND_PROP_GET 3VND "Feb 21, 2014"

.SH NAME

vnd_prop_get, vnd_prop_set \- get and set vnd properties

.SH SYNOPSIS

.LP
.nf
cc [ flag... ] file... -lvnd [ library... ]
#include <libvnd.h>

int vnd_prop_get(vnd_handle_t *vhp, vnd_prop_t prop, void *buf, size_t len);

int vnd_prop_set(vnd_handle_t *vhp, vnd_prop_t prop, void *buf, size_t len);
.fi

.SH DESCRIPTION
.LP
The vnd_prop_get and vnd_prop_set functions are used to retrieve
and set property values on the vnd_handle_t referred to by vhp. The
property to get or set is specified by the argument prop. The
argument buf and the size of buf, in len, should be a pointer to the
appropriate structure for the property as defined in libvnd(3LIB).

.LP
All of the supported properties are listed and described in the
libvnd(3LIB) manual page.


.SH RETURN VALUES
.LP
On success, the vnd_prop_get and vnd_prop_set functions return zero.
On failure, they return -1 and additional error information is
available through vnd_errno(3VND) and vnd_syserrno(3VND).

.LP
When vnd_prop_get returns successfully, the contents of buf are
filled in with the value of the corresponding property. The contents
of buf should not change across a call to vnd_prop_set.

.SH EXAMPLES

.LP
Example 1   Getting the value of the rxbuf property
.LP
The following sample C program retrieves the value of the
rxbuf property and prints it to standard out.

EXAMPLE 2    Setting a property

This sample C program sets the property VND_PROP_RXBUF to the value of
4200 bytes.

.LP
Example 3    Setting a property to the value of another.
.LP
In this sample C program, we set the VND_PROP_TXBUF to the maximum
allowable size as determined by the read-only property VND_PROP_MAXBUF.
