CSX_ERROR2TEXT(9F) Kernel Functions for Drivers CSX_ERROR2TEXT(9F)

NAME

csx_Error2Text - convert error return codes to text strings

SYNOPSIS

#include <sys/pccard.h>

int32_t csx_Error2Text(error2text_t *er);

INTERFACE LEVEL

illumos DDI Specific (illumos DDI)

PARAMETERS

er
Pointer to an error2text_t structure.

DESCRIPTION

This function is an illumos-specific extension that provides a method
for clients to convert Card Services error return codes to text
strings.

STRUCTURE MEMBERS

The structure members of error2text_t are:

uint32_t item; /*the error code*/
char test[CS_ERROR_MAX_BUFSIZE}; /*the error code*/

A pointer to the text for the Card Services error return code in the
item field is returned in the text field if the error return code is
found. The client is not responsible for allocating a buffer to hold
the text. If the Card Services error return code specified in the
item field is not found, the text field will be set to a string of
the form:

"{unknown Card Services return code}"

RETURN VALUES

CS_SUCCESS
Successful operation.

CS_UNSUPPORTED_FUNCTION
No PCMCIA hardware installed.

CONTEXT

This function may be called from user or kernel context.

EXAMPLES

Example 1: : Using the csxError2Text function

if ((ret = csx_RegisterClient(&client_handle, &
client_reg)) != CS_SUCCESS)
{
error2text_t error2text;
error2text.item = ret;
csx_Error2Text(&error2text);
cmn_err(CE_CONT, "RegisterClient failed %s (0x%x)",
error2text.text, ret);
}
