Description Robert Millan 2010-08-01 13:10:03 UTC 
This patch makes OpenSolaris <sys/nvpair.h> buildable outside the compatibility environment, so that it can be installed system-wide, along with <libnvpair.h>, making it easier for third party apps to link with libnvpair.

It's been forwarded to OpenSolaris BTS already:
- https://defect.opensolaris.org/bz/show_bug.cgi?id=16697#c0

See also the discussion on GRUB list [1] about this problem:

[1] I'm in the process of adding support to GRUB for booting from ZFS

If this wasn't imported into OpenSolaris I suggest a illumos issue gets
filled.

We seem to have ended up in the worst of all possible worlds here.  We have files like nvpair.h and libzfs_core.h installed, but they depend on Solaris compat headers that are *not* installed.  Worse, we have a libnv.h that exposes an nvlist_t that looks like the one that libzfs_core.h uses, but is not actually compatible.
