4. Technical Description:
    4.1. Details:

	We augment the libnvpair(3LIB) interfaces with a simple addition:

	    uint_t nvlist_nvflag(nvlist_t *);

	This returns the second 'nvflag' argument to nvlist_alloc and
	nvlist_xalloc that the given nvlist_t was created with.  A
	subsystem receiving an nvlist from another may use this
	interface to confirm that the nvlist adheres to requirements
	(e.g., if the subsystem insists that all nvlists it processes
	should be allocated NV_UNIQUE_NAME).

	Values and semantics for nvflag are already documented in
	nvlist_alloc(3NVPAIR) and nvlist_add_boolean(3NVPAIR).  They
	include NV_UNIQUE_NAME and NV_UNIQUE_NAME_TYPE, and the case
	where neither of these is specified.

    4.5. Interfaces:

	As with other interfaces listed in libnvpair(3LIB) this addition
	is Committed.

	Interface		Stability
	-----------------------	------------
	nvlist_flag(3NVPAIR)	Committed

    4.6. Doc Impact:

	libnvpair(3NVPAIR) is updated to list the new interface

	nvlist_alloc(3NVPAIR) is updated to document the new interface
