11  *
12  * This is intended to be used to create a list of properties to request,
13  * and _then_ request values for all properties.  Any change to the request
14  * list will discard any existing values.  This assumption allows a very
15  * efficient and simple memory model.  This was designed for SASL API auxiliary
16  * property support, but would be fine for other contexts where this property
17  * model is appropriate.
18  *
19  * The "struct propctx" is allocated by prop_new and is a fixed size structure.
20  * If a prop_init() call were added, it would be reasonable to embed a "struct
21  * propctx" in another structure.  prop_new also allocates a pool of memory
22  * (in the vbase field) which will be used for an array of "struct propval"
23  * to list all the requested properties.
24  *
25  * Properties may be multi-valued.
