.SH INTERFACE LEVEL
Solaris DDI specific (Solaris DDI). These entry points are required. You must
write them.
.SH PARAMETERS

.ne 2
.na
\fB\fImodinfop\fR \fR
.ad
.RS 13n
A pointer to an opaque \fBmodinfo\fR structure.

.SH DESCRIPTION
\fB_init()\fR initializes a loadable module. It is called before any other
routine in a loadable module. \fB_init()\fR returns the value returned by
\fBmod_install\fR(9F). The module may optionally perform some other work before
the \fBmod_install\fR(9F) call is performed. If the module has done some setup
before the \fBmod_install\fR(9F) function is called, then it should be prepared
to undo that setup if \fBmod_install\fR(9F) returns an error.
.sp
.LP
\fB_info()\fR returns information about a loadable module. \fB_info()\fR
returns the value returned by \fBmod_info\fR(9F).
.sp
.LP
\fB_fini()\fR prepares a loadable module for unloading. It is called when the
system wants to unload a module. If the module determines that it can be
unloaded, then \fB_fini()\fR returns the value returned by
\fBmod_remove\fR(9F). Upon successful return from \fB_fini()\fR no other
routine in the module will be called before \fB_init()\fR is called. If
\fB_init()\fR did not successfully complete, \fB_fini()\fR will not be
called.
.SH RETURN VALUES
\fB_init()\fR should return the appropriate error number if there is an error,
otherwise it should return the return value from \fBmod_install\fR(9F).
.sp
.LP
\fB_info()\fR should return the return value from \fBmod_info\fR(9F)
.sp
.LP
\fB_fini()\fR should return the return value from \fBmod_remove\fR(9F).
\fB_fini()\fR is permitted to return \fBEBUSY\fR prior to calling
\fBmod_remove\fR(9F) if the driver should not be unloaded. Driver global
resources, such as mutexes and calls to \fBddi_soft_state_fini\fR(9F), should
only be destroyed in \fB_fini()\fR after \fBmod_remove()\fR returns
successfully.

.SH WARNINGS
Do not change the structures referred to by the \fBmodlinkage\fR structure
after the call to \fBmod_install()\fR, as the system may copy or change them.
.SH NOTES
Even though the identifiers \fB_fini()\fR, \fB_info()\fR, and \fB_init()\fR
appear to be declared as globals, their scope is restricted by the kernel to
the module that they are defined in.
.SH BUGS
On some implementations \fB_info()\fR may be called before \fB_init()\fR.
