NAME
     devmap_set_ctx_timeout - set the timeout value for the  con-
     text management callback

SYNOPSIS
     #include 
     #include 



     void devmap_set_ctx_timeout(devmap_cookie_t dhp, clock_t ticks);


INTERFACE LEVEL
     Solaris DDI specific (Solaris DDI).

PARAMETERS
     dhp      An opaque mapping handle that the  system  uses  to
              describe the mapping.


     ticks    Number of clock ticks to  wait  between  successive
              calls to the context management callback function.


DESCRIPTION
     The devmap_set_ctx_timeout()  function  specifies  the  time
     interval  for the system to wait between successive calls to
     the   driver's   context   management   callback   function,
     devmap_contextmgt(9E).


     Device drivers typically  call  devmap_set_ctx_timeout()  in
     the  devmap_map(9E)  routine.  If  the  drivers  do not call
     devmap_set_ctx_timeout()  to  set  the  timeout  value,  the
     default  timeout  value of 0 will result in no delay between
     successive calls to the driver's devmap_contextmgt(9E) call-
     back function.

CONTEXT
     The devmap_set_ctx_timeout() function  can  be  called  from
     user, interrupt, or kernel context.
