NAME
     intro.D3 - introduction to kernel utility routines

SYNOPSIS
     #include <sys/types.h>
     #include <sys/ddi.h>

DESCRIPTION
     This section describes the kernel utility functions available for use by
     device drivers and STREAMS modules.

USAGE
     Drivers and STREAMS modules must not call any kernel routines other than
     the ones described in this section.

     Unless otherwise stated, any kernel utility routine that sleeps will do
     so such that signals will not interrupt the sleep.
