.SH NAME
modlstrmod \- linkage structure for loadable STREAMS modules
.SH SYNOPSIS
.nf
#include <sys/modctl.h>
.fi

.SH INTERFACE LEVEL
illumos DDI specific (illumos DDI)
.SH DESCRIPTION
The \fBmodlstrmod\fR structure is used by STREAMS modules to export module
specific information to the kernel.
.SH STRUCTURE MEMBERS
.in +2
.nf
struct mod_ops     *strmod_modops;
char               *strmod_linkinfo;
struct fmodsw      *strmod_fmodsw;

.na
\fB\fBstrmod_modops\fR \fR
.ad
.RS 20n
Must always be initialized to the address of \fBmod_strmodops\fR. This
identifies the module as a loadable STREAMS module.
.RE

.sp
.ne 2
.na
\fB\fBstrmod_linkinfo\fR \fR
.ad
.RS 20n
Can be any string up to \fBMODMAXNAMELEN\fR, and is used to describe the
module. This string is usually the name of the module, but can contain other
information (such as a version number).
