       OTHERQ - STREAMS: Gets a pointer to a module's other queue

SYNOPSIS    [Toc]    [Back]

       #include <sys/stream.h>

       queue_t * OTHERQ(

ARGUMENTS    [Toc]    [Back]

       Specifies the pointer to one of the two queues  that  make
       up  a  STREAMS module or driver. The typedef queue_t is an
       alternate name for struct queue_entry *.

DESCRIPTION    [Toc]    [Back]

       The OTHERQ interface returns a pointer to the other of the
       two  queue  structures  that  make  up a STREAMS module or
       driver. If the queue argument points to  the  read  queue,
       the  OTHERQ  interface  returns  the  write queue.  If the
       queue argument points  to  the  write  queue,  the  OTHERQ
       interface returns the read queue.

RETURN VALUES    [Toc]    [Back]

       Upon successful completion, the OTHERQ interface returns a
       pointer to the other of the two queue structures that make
       up a STREAMS module or driver.
