.SH DESCRIPTION
.sp
.LP
The kernel device configuration data may be viewed in two ways, either as a
tree of device  configuration nodes or as a  list of nodes associated with each
driver. In the tree view, each node may contain references to  its parent, the
next sibling in a list of siblings, and the first child of a list of children.
In the per-driver view, each node contains a reference to the next node
associated with the same driver. Both views are captured in the snapshot, and
the interfaces are provided for node  access.
.sp
.LP
The \fBdi_child_node()\fR function obtains a handle to the first child of
\fInode\fR. If no child node exists in the snapshot, \fBDI_NODE_NIL\fR is
returned and \fIerrno\fR is set to \fBENXIO\fR or \fBENOTSUP\fR.
.sp
.LP
The \fBdi_parent_node()\fR function obtains a handle to the parent node of
\fInode\fR. If no parent node exists in the snapshot, \fBDI_NODE_NIL\fR is
returned and \fIerrno\fR is set to \fBENXIO\fR or \fBENOTSUP\fR.
.sp
.LP
The \fBdi_sibling_node()\fR function obtains a handle to the next sibling node
of \fInode\fR. If no next sibling  node exists in the snapshot,
\fBDI_NODE_NIL\fR is returned and \fIerrno\fR is set to \fBENXIO\fR or
\fBENOTSUP\fR.
.sp
.LP
The \fBdi_drv_first_node()\fR function obtains a handle to the first node
associated with the driver specified by \fBdrv_name\fR. If there is no such
driver, \fBDI_NODE_NIL\fR is returned with \fIerrno\fR is set to \fBEINVAL\fR.
If the driver exists but there is no node associated with this driver,
\fBDI_NODE_NIL\fR is  returned and \fIerrno\fR is set to \fBENXIO\fR or
\fBENOTSUP\fR.
.sp
.LP
The \fBdi_drv_next_node()\fR function returns a handle to the next node bound
to the same driver. If no more nodes exist, \fBDI_NODE_NIL\fR is returned.
.SH RETURN VALUES
.sp
.LP
Upon successful completion, a handle is returned. Otherwise,  \fBDI_NODE_NIL\fR
is returned and \fIerrno\fR is set to indicate the error.
.SH ERRORS

The node was not found in the snapshot, but it may exist in the kernel. This
error may occur if the snapshot contains a partial device tree.
