.SH DESCRIPTION
.sp
.LP
\fBddi_prop_exists()\fR checks for the existence of a property regardless of
the property value data type.
.sp
.LP
Properties are searched for based on the \fIdip\fR, \fIname\fR, and
\fImatch_dev\fR. The property search order is as follows:
.RS +4
.TP
1.
Search software properties created by the driver.
.RE
.RS +4
.TP
2.
Search the software properties created by the system (or nexus nodes in the
device info tree).
.RE
.RS +4
.TP
3.
Search the driver global properties list.
.RE
.RS +4
.TP
4.
If \fBDDI_PROP_NOTPROM\fR is not set, search the \fBPROM \fRproperties (if
they exist).
.RE
.RS +4
.TP
5.
If \fBDDI_PROP_DONTPASS\fR is not set, pass this request to the parent
device information node.
.RE
.RS +4
.TP
6.
Return \fB0\fR if not found and \fB1\fR if found.
.RE
.sp
.LP
Usually, the \fImatch_dev\fR argument should be set to the actual device number
that this property is associated with. However, if the \fImatch_dev\fR
argument is \fBDDI_DEV_T_ANY,\fR then \fBddi_prop_exists()\fR will match the
request regardless of the \fImatch_dev\fR the property was created with.
That is the first property whose name matches \fIname\fR will be returned. If
a property was created with \fImatch_dev\fR set to \fBDDI_DEV_T_NONE\fR then
the only way to look up this property is with a \fImatch_dev\fR set to
\fBDDI_DEV_T_ANY.\fR \fBPROM \fRproperties are always created with
\fImatch_dev\fR set to \fBDDI_DEV_T_NONE.\fR
.sp
.LP
\fIname\fR must always be set to the name of the property being looked up.
.SH RETURN VALUES
.sp
.LP
\fBddi_prop_exists()\fR returns \fB1\fR if the property exists and \fB0\fR
otherwise.
.SH CONTEXT
.sp
.LP
These functions can be called from user or kernel context.
.SH EXAMPLES
.LP
\fBExample 1 \fR: Using \fBddi_prop_exists()\fR
.sp
.LP
The following example demonstrates the use of \fBddi_prop_exists()\fR.
.sp
.in +2

/*
