Description

These functions provide unique identifiers (device IDs) for devices. Applications and device drivers use these functions to identify and locate devices, independent of the device's physical connection or its logical device name or number.

The devid_get() function returns in retdevid the device ID for the device associated with the open file descriptor fd, which refers to any device. It returns an error if the device does not have an associated device ID. The caller must free the memory allocated for retdevid using the devid_free() function.

The devid_free() function frees the space that was allocated for the returned devid by devid_get() and devid_str_decode().

The devid_get_minor_name() function returns the minor name, in retminor_name, for the device associated with the open file descriptor fd. This name is specific to the particular minor number, but is “instance number” specific. The caller of this function must free the memory allocated for the returned retminor_name string using devid_str_free().

The devid_deviceid_to_nmlist() function returns an array of devid_nmlist structures, where each entry matches the devid and minor_name passed in. If the minor_name specified is one of the special values (DEVID_MINOR_NAME_ALL, DEVID_MINOR_NAME_ALL_CHR, or DEVID_MINOR_NAME_ALL_BLK) , then all minor names associated with devid which also meet the special minor_name filtering requirements are returned. The devid_nmlist structure contains the device name and device number. The last entry of the array contains a null pointer for the devname and NODEV for the device number. This function traverses the file tree, starting at search_path. For each device with a matching device ID and minor name tuple, a device name and device number are added to the retlist. If no matches are found, an error is returned. The caller of this function must free the memory allocated for the returned array with the devid_free_nmlist() function. This function may take a long time to complete if called with the device ID of an unattached device.

The devid_free_nmlist() function frees the memory allocated by the devid_deviceid_to_nmlist() function.

The devid_compare() function compares two device IDs and determines both equality and sort order. The function returns an integer greater than 0 if the device ID pointed to by devid1 is greater than the device ID pointed to by devid2. It returns 0 if the device ID pointed to by devid1 is equal to the device ID pointed to by devid2. It returns an integer less than 0 if the device ID pointed to by devid1 is less than the device ID pointed to by devid2. This function is the only valid mechanism to determine the equality of two devids. This function may indicate equality for arguments which by simple inspection appear different.

The devid_sizeof() function returns the size of devid in bytes.

The devid_valid() function validates the format of a devid. It returns 1 if the format is valid, and 0 if invalid. This check may not be as complete as the corresponding kernel function ddi_devid_valid() (see ddi_devid_compare(9F)).

The devid_str_encode() function encodes a devid and minor_name into a null-terminated ASCII string, returning a pointer to that string. To avoid shell conflicts, the devid portion of the string is limited to uppercase and lowercase letters, digits, and the plus (+), minus (-), period (.), equals (=), underscore (_), tilde (~), and comma (,) characters. If there is an ASCII quote character in the binary form of a devid, the string representation will be in hex_id form, not ascii_id form. The comma (,) character is added for "id1," at the head of the string devid. If both a devid and a minor_name are non-null, a slash (/)is used to separate the devid from the minor_name in the encoded string. If minor_name is null, only the devid is encoded. If the devid is null then the special string "id0" is returned. Note that you cannot compare the returned string against another string with strcmp(3C) to determine devid equality. The string returned must be freed by calling devid_str_free().

The devid_str_decode() function takes a string previously produced by the devid_str_encode() or ddi_devid_str_encode() (see ddi_devid_compare(9F)) function and decodes the contained device ID and minor name, allocating and returning pointers to the extracted parts via the retdevid and retminor_name arguments. If the special devidstr "id0" was specified, the returned device ID and minor name will both be null. A non-null returned devid must be freed by the caller by the devid_free() function. A non-null returned minor name must be freed by calling devid_str_free().

The devid_str_free() function frees the character string returned by devid_str_encode() and the retminor_name argument returned by devid_str_decode().

Return Values

Upon successful completion, the devid_get(), devid_get_minor_name(), devid_str_decode(), and devid_deviceid_to_nmlist() functions return 0. Otherwise, they return -1.

The devid_compare() function returns the following values:

-1

The device ID pointed to by devid1 is less than the device ID pointed to by devid2.

0

The device ID pointed to by devid1 is equal to the device ID pointed to by devid2.

1

The device ID pointed to by devid1 is greater than the device ID pointed to by devid2.

The devid_sizeof() function returns the size of devid in bytes. If devid is null, the number of bytes that must be allocated and initialized to determine the size of a complete device ID is returned.

The devid_valid() function returns 1 if the devid is valid and 0 if the devid is invalid.

The devid_str_encode() function returns NULL to indicate failure. Failure may be caused by attempting to encode an invalid string. If the return value is non-null, the caller must free the returned string by using the devid_str_free() function.

Examples

Example 1 Using devid_get(), devid_get_minor_name(), and devid_str_encode()

The following example shows the proper use of devid_get(), devid_get_minor_name(), and devid_str_encode() to free the space allocated for devid, minor_name and encoded devid.

int fd;
ddi_devid_t    devid;
char        *minor_name, *devidstr;
if ((fd = open("/dev/dsk/c0t3d0s0", O_RDONLY|O_NDELAY)) < 0) {
    ...
}
if (devid_get(fd, &devid) != 0) {
    ...
}
if (devid_get_minor_name(fd, &minor_name) != 0) {
    ...
}
if ((devidstr = devid_str_encode(devid, minor_name)) == 0) {
    ...
}
printf("devid %s\n", devidstr);
devid_str_free(devidstr);
devid_free(devid);
devid_str_free(minor_name);

Example 2 Using devid_deviceid_to_nmlist() and devid_free_nmlist()

The following example shows the proper use of devid_deviceid_to_nmlist() and devid_free_nmlist():

devid_nmlist_t  *list = NULL;
int    err;
if (devid_deviceid_to_nmlist("/dev/rdsk", devid,
    minor_name, &list))
        return (-1);
/* loop through list and process device names and numbers */ 
devid_free_nmlist(list);
