hat_getkpfnum() DDI Function Is Obsolete (5046984)
The hat_getkpfnum() DDI function is obsolete. Developers should update their device drivers
to not use the hat_getkpfnum() DDI interface. If drivers are using hat_getkpfnum,()
warnings similar to the following example are displayed:
WARNING: Module mydrv is using the obsolete hat_getkpfnum(9F)
interface in a way that will not be supported in
a future release of Solaris. Please contact the
vendor that supplied the module for assistance,
or consult the Writing Device Drivers guide,
available from http://www.sun.com for migration
advice.

To determine if a driver is using hat_getkpfnum(), consult the driver source code, or examine
the driver's symbols by using nm(). Using the driver mydrv as an example, type the following
syntax:
% nm /usr/kernel/drv/mydrv | grep hat_getkpfnum
For guidance about migrating drivers away from hat_getkpfnum(), refer to Appendix B,
“Summary of Solaris DDI/DKI Services,” in Writing Device Drivers.
