       close(D2I)                                                close(D2I)


       NAME
             close - close Host Bus Adapter pass-through access

       SYNOPSIS
             int prefixclose(dev_t dev, int flags, int otype, cred_t *cred_p);

          Arguments
             dev   Device number.

             flags Flags for close.

             otype Type of close.

             cred_p
                   Credential pointer of the closing process.

       DESCRIPTION
             This entry point is for HBA drivers.  close(D2I) returns
             target level access to a device, attached to a Host Bus
             Adapter (HBA), currently operating in pass-through mode.

          Return Values
             On success, close returns 0.  On failure, it returns the
             appropriate error number corresponding to the failure.  (See
             errno.h.)

       USAGE
             After completing pass-through access to a device, the user
             level application should issue the pass-through close to allow
             target level access to the device once more.

             The arguments to this routine are the same as those for any
             standard close(D2) routine.

          Level
             Base only.
