Chapter 3 Differences Between STREAMS/UX and System V Release 4 STREAMS

This chapter summarizes the differences between STREAMS/UX and System V Release 4.2 STREAMS. Chapter 4 discusses STREAMS/UX multiprocessor support and the differences between STREAMS/UX and System V Release 4 Multiprocessor STREAMS. You need to use this manual in conjunction with USL's UNIX System V Release 4.2 STREAMS Modules and Drivers and UNIX System V Release 4.2 Device Driver Reference. The USL manuals will be referred to as the SVR4.2 STREAMS manual and the SVR4.2 Driver manual from now on. Unless otherwise stated in this chapter and Chapter 4, STREAMS/UX information described in the SVR4.2 STREAMS and SVR4.2 Driver manuals will be applicable to STREAMS/UX.

	NOTE: This chapter is intended primarily for programmers, and is written with the assumption that you have already read the SVR4.2 STREAMS Modules and Drivers manuals.
