37 For device nodes whose \fBnodeid\fR value is \fBDI_PROM_NODEID\fR (see
38 \fBdi_nodeid\fR(3DEVINFO)), additional properties can be retrieved from the
39 \fBPROM\fR. The \fBdi_prom_init()\fR function returns a handle that is used to
40 retrieve such properties. This handle is passed to
41 \fBdi_prom_prop_lookup_bytes\fR(3DEVINFO) and
42 \fBdi_prom_prop_next\fR(3DEVINFO).
45 The \fBdi_prom_fini()\fR function destroys the handle and all handles to the
46 \fBPROM\fR device information obtained from that handle.
50 Upon successful completion, \fBdi_prom_init()\fR returns a handle. Otherwise,
51 \fBDI_PROM_HANDLE_NIL\fR is returned and \fBerrno\fR is set to indicate the
56 The \fBdi_prom_init()\fR sets \fBerrno\fR function to any error code that can
57 also be set by \fBopenprom\fR(7D) or \fBmalloc\fR(3C).
