const char *di_devlink_path(di_devlink_t devlink);

int di_devlink_type(di_devlink_t devlink);
devlink
An opaque handle to a devlink.
These functions return various attributes of a devlink.
The di_devlink_path() function returns the absolute path of a
devlink. On error, NULL is returned and errno is set to indicate the
error.
The di_devlink_content() function returns the content of the symbolic
link represented by devlink. On error, NULL is returned and errno is
set to indicate the error.
The di_devlink_type() function returns the devlink type, either
DI_PRIMARY_LINK or DI_SECONDARY_LINK. On error, -1 is returned and
errno is set to indicate the error.
These functions will fail if:
EINVAL
The devlink argument is invalid.
