*** 155,165 **** The nvlist_xalloc() function differs from nvlist_alloc() in that nvlist_xalloc() can use a different allocator, as described in the Pluggable Allocators section. ! The nvlist_free() function frees a name-value pair list. The nvlist_size() function returns the minimum size of a contiguous buffer large enough to pack nvl. The encoding parameter specifies the method of encoding when packing nvl. Supported encoding methods are: --- 155,166 ---- The nvlist_xalloc() function differs from nvlist_alloc() in that nvlist_xalloc() can use a different allocator, as described in the Pluggable Allocators section. !
