libIO.so (for Itanium®-based systems) or libIO.sl (for PA-RISC systems) is a shared library, which provides APIs for accessing the HP-UX I/O subsystem information. The libIO(3X) manpage documents the APIs. The header file /usr/include/sys/libIO.h has the data structures needed for compiling the programs using libIO.
