Hi,

I've posted a new version of the link ID management API document to:

http://www.opensolaris.org/os/project/clearview/uv/link_id_management.pdf

Changes include:

- re-written the section on SMF.  Hopefully it is clearer what I intend 
to do and why.  It includes things such as the list of properties is 
only a convenience and is not committed, a change of the layout for 
storing link information in SMF, and information on how temporary links 
are stored in SMF.  One thing is I do not talk about a refresh method 
for network/linkmgmtd.  Would it be useful to have one?
- Change of function signatures - dladm_get_conf_field, 
dladm_set_conf_field, etc.
- change of data types - There are fewer data types and they now map 1-1 
with SMF types
- change dladm_linkid_t to datalink_id_t
- change dladm_create_datalink_id so that it can accept a prefix and 
append a PPA

Comments, questions are welcome.  If I missed anyone's comments from 
earlier, please let me know.

thanks,
Dan
