[comp.bugs.sys5] AT&T Transport Interface

ottmar@micomvax.UUCP (02/17/87)

I recently received the complete set of SVR3 documentation, and was
disappointed to find that the AT&T Transport Interface is *not*
explicitly documented.

The Network Programmer's Guide (307-230) and the SVID (307-131) both
describe only the AT&T Transport Library and not the underlying
STREAMS message formats.

Does anyone know how to obtain specifications for these messages ?
One obvious answer would be to read the library sources, but I
I don't yet have the SVR3 sources and don't know when they will arrive.

Any information would be appreciated e.g. a summary of how closely the
TI messages correspond to the transport library routines.
