Yes, on Solaris 5.6 it's in
usr/include/sys/ddi.h
and it says
/* THIS IS UNPUBLISHED PROPRIETARY SOURCE CODE OF AT&T */
...

*/
so one is not at liberty to spread it round, either. Sorry. That's just the
way code used to be written I'm afraid.
It declares various structures for major and minor devices using #ifdefs,
pretty much in the manner NOT recommended for Linux device driver writing if
I remember Jens' talk rightly.
We shouldn't use it for Linux projects.
Cheers,
Jill.
