As I was navigating through the source code for the ZFS file system I saw that 
in zvol.c where the ioctls are defined, if a program sends a DKIOCGGEOM or 
DKIOCDVTOV, an ENOTSUP (Error Not Supported) is returned.

You can view this here: 
http://src.opensolaris.org/source/xref/onnv/onnv-gate/usr/src/uts/common/fs/zfs/zvol.c

My question is, what is an appropriate method to obtain the zpool's volume size 
from a C coded application?
I use zprop_get_list and zfs_prop_get form libzfs to read and parse zfs properties. There may be a more direct way, but zprop_get_list appears to be the generic solution.
