Name

ddi_dma_buf_setup - easier DMA setup for use with buffer structures

Synopsis


#include <sys/ddi.h>

#include <sys/sunddi.h>

int ddi_dma_buf_setup(dev_info_t *dip, struct buf *bp, u_int flags, int (*waitfp)(caddr_t), caddr_t arg, ddi_dma_lim_t *lim, ddi_dma_handle_t *handlep);

Interface Level

Solaris DDI specific (Solaris DDI).

Arguments

dip
A pointer to the device’s dev_info structure.
bp
A pointer to a system buffer structure (see buf(9S) ).
flags
Flags that go into a ddi_dma_req structure (see ddi_dma_req(9S) ).
waitfp
The address of a function to call back later if resources aren’t available now. The special function addresses DDI_DMA_SLEEP and DDI_DMA_DONTWAIT (see ddi_dma_req(9S) ) are taken to mean, respectively, wait until resources are available, or do not wait at all and do not schedule a callback.
arg
Argument to be passed to a callback function, if such a function is specified.
lim
A pointer to a DMA limits structure for this device (see ddi_dma_lim_sparc(9S) or ddi_dma_lim_x86(9S) ). If this pointer is NULL, a default set of DMA limits is assumed.
handlep
Pointer to a DMA handle. See ddi_dma_setup(9F) for a discussion of handle.

Description

ddi_dma_buf_setup() is an interface to ddi_dma_setup(9F) . It uses its arguments to construct an appropriate ddi_dma_req structure and calls ddi_dma_setup() with it.

Return Values

See ddi_dma_setup(9F) for the possible return values for this function.

Context

ddi_dma_buf_setup() can be called from user or interrupt context, except when waitfp is set to DDI_DMA_SLEEP, in which case it can be called from user context only.
