.SH NAME
dlpi_unbind \- unbind DLPI handle
.SH SYNOPSIS
.LP
.nf
\fBcc\fR [ \fIflag\fR ... ] \fIfile\fR ... \fB-ldlpi\fR [ \fIlibrary\fR ... ]

.SH DESCRIPTION
.sp
.LP
The \fBdlpi_unbind()\fR function unbinds to bind the \fBDLPI\fR handle \fIdh\fR from the bound \fBSAP\fR. The handle must be in the \fBDL_IDLE\fR \fBDLPI\fR state and upon success, the handle transitions to the \fBDL_UNBOUND\fR state.
.sp
.LP
Upon success, the caller will no longer be able to send or receive data using the \fBDLPI\fR link associated with \fIdh\fR.
.SH RETURN VALUES
.sp
.LP
Upon success, \fBDLPI_SUCCESS\fR is returned. If \fBDL_SYSERR\fR is returned, \fBerrno\fR contains the specific UNIX system error value. Otherwise, a \fBDLPI\fR error value defined in \fB<sys/dlpi.h>\fR or an error value \fBDLPI_ETIMEDOUT\fR will be returned.
