GSS-API Programming Guide
|
This book
instructs developers on how to use the Generic Security Services Application
Interface (GSS-API) to make their network-based programs secure. The GSS-API
provides developers with a way to use installed security mechanisms, and the
authentication, confidentiality, and data integrity features they provide,
to protect transmissions over networks. The GSS-API eliminates the necessity
for data-transmission programs to be platform-specific or mechanism-specific.

ONC+
Developer's Guide
|
This book
describes the ONC+TM distributed services that were developed
at Sun Microsystems. ONC+ technologies consist of a family of technologies,
services, and tools. The technologies include the following:
-
Transport-independent remote procedure call (TI-RPC) was developed
to make RPC applications transport-independent.
-
External data representation (XDR) is an architecture-independent
specification for representing data.
-
Network Information Services Plus (NIS+) is the enterprise
naming service in the Solaris environment. This service provides a scalable
and secure information base.

|
Programming Interfaces Guide
|
This book describes interfaces specific to the Solaris 9 environment in areas
such as shared memory, transport selection, and real-time administration.
This book also describes applications that relate to API/ABI compliance, such
as appcert. The ONC+ Developer's Guide
describes higher-level networking interfaces.

Solaris 64-bit Developer's Guide
|
This book is written primarily for the application developer and provides
guidance on choosing whether to use the 32-bit or 64-bit Solaris application
programming environment. The book explains the similarities and differences
between the 32-bit and 64-bit application environments and explains how to
write code that is portable between the two environments. This book also
describes some of the tools that are provided by the operating system for
developing 64-bit applications.

This book provides information for developers who want to support
a new data service to store Solaris DHCP service information.
|
|
Solaris Modular Debugger Guide
|
This book describes the Solaris Modular Debugger (MDB), which is a general-purpose
debugging tool for the Solaris operating environment. The primary feature
of MDB is its extensibility. This book describes how to use MDB to debug
complex software systems, with a particular emphasis on the facilities available
for debugging the Solaris kernel and associated device drivers and modules.
The book also includes a complete reference for and discussion of the MDB
language syntax, debugger features, and MDB Module Programming API.

Writing Device Drivers
|
This book provides information on developing device drivers for character-oriented
devices, block-oriented devices, and SCSI target and HBA devices for the Solaris
operating environment. This book discusses how to develop multithreaded reentrant
device drivers for all architectures that conform to the Solaris DDI/DKI.
A common driver programming approach is described that allows drivers to be
written without concern for platform-specific issues such as endianness and
data ordering.
Additional topics include the porting of Solaris
drivers to a 64–bit environment, cluster-aware drivers, driver autoconfiguration,
programmed I/O, Direct Memory Access (DMA), and power management. Other topics
include device context management; compilation, installation, and testing
of drivers; and debugging of drivers.
