#include <sys/sunddi.h>


int devmap_devmem_setup(devmap_cookie_t dhp, dev_info_t *dip,
struct devmap_callback_ctl *callbackops, uint_t rnumber,
offset_t roff, size_t len, uint_t maxprot,
uint_t flags, const ddi_device_acc_attr_t *accattrp);

const ddi_device_acc_attr_t *accattrp);


INTERFACE LEVEL


illumos DDI specific (illumos DDI).

PARAMETERS


devmap_devmem_setup() parameters:

dhp
An opaque mapping handle that the system uses to
describe the mapping.


dip
Pointer to the device's dev_info structure.


callbackops
Pointer to a devmap_callback_ctl(9S) structure. The
structure contains pointers to device driver-supplied
functions that manage events on the device mapping.
The framework will copy the structure to the system
private memory.


rnumber
Index number to the register address space set.


roff
Offset into the register address space.


len
Length (in bytes) of the mapping to be mapped.


maxprot
Maximum protection flag possible for attempted
mapping. Some combinations of possible settings are:

PROT_READ
Read access is allowed.


PROT_WRITE
Write access is allowed.


PROT_EXEC
Execute access is allowed.


PROT_USER
User-level access is allowed. The
mapping is done as a result of a mmap(2)
system call.


PROT_ALL
All access is allowed.


flags
Used to determine the cache attribute.

Possible values of the cache attribute are:

IOMEM_DATA_CACHED
The CPU can cache the data
it fetches and push it to
memory at a later time.
This is the default
attribute that is used if
no cache attributes are
specified.


IOMEM_DATA_UC_WR_COMBINE
The CPU never caches the
data, but writes can occur
out of order or can be
combined. Reordering is
implied.

If
IOMEM_DATA_UC_WR_COMBINE
is specified but not
supported,
IOMEM_DATA_UNCACHED is
used instead.


IOMEM_DATA_UNCACHED
The CPU never caches data,
but has uncacheable access
to memory. Strict ordering
is implied.

The cache attributes are mutually exclusive. Any
combination of the values leads to a failure. On the
SPARC architecture, only IOMEM_DATA_CACHED is
meaningful. Others lead to a failure.


accattrp
Pointer to a ddi_device_acc_attr() structure of the
device. See ddi_device_acc_attr(9S). The value in
devacc_attr_dataorder is ignored in the current
release. The value in devacc_attr_endian_flags is
meaningful on the SPARC architecture only.


devmap_umem_setup() parameters:

dhp
An opaque data structure that the system uses to
describe the mapping.


dip
Pointer to the device's dev_info structure.


callbackops
Pointer to a devmap_callback_ctl(9S) structure. The
structure contains pointers to device driver-supplied
functions that manage events on the device mapping.


cookie
A kernel memory cookie (see ddi_umem_alloc(9F)).


koff
Offset into the kernel memory defined by cookie.


len
Length (in bytes) of the mapping to be mapped.


maxprot
Maximum protection flag possible for attempted
mapping. Some combinations of possible settings are:

PROT_READ
Read access is allowed.


PROT_WRITE
Write access is allowed.


PROT_EXEC
Execute access is allowed.


PROT_USER
User-level access is allowed (the
mapping is being done as a result of a
mmap(2) system call).


PROT_ALL
All access is allowed.


flags
Must be set to 0.


accattrp
Pointer to a ddi_device_acc_attr(9S) structure.
Ignored in the current release. Reserved for future
use.


DESCRIPTION


The devmap_devmem_setup() and devmap_umem_setup() functions are used
in the devmap(9E) entry point to pass mapping parameters from the
driver to the system.


The dhp argument specifies a device mapping handle that the system
uses to store all mapping parameters of a physical contiguous memory.
The system copies the data pointed to by callbackops to a system
private memory. This allows the driver to free the data after
returning from either devmap_devmem_setup() or devmap_umem_setup().
The driver is notified of user events on the mappings via the entry
points defined by devmap_callback_ctl(9S). The driver is notified of
the following user events:

Mapping Setup
User has called mmap(2) to create a mapping to the
device memory.


Access
User has accessed an address in the mapping that has
no translations.


Duplication
User has duplicated the mapping. Mappings are
duplicated when the process calls fork(2).


Unmapping
User has called munmap(2) on the mapping or is
exiting, exit(2).


See devmap_map(9E), devmap_access(9E), devmap_dup(9E), and
devmap_unmap(9E) for details on these entry points.


By specifying a valid callbackops to the system, device drivers can
manage events on a device mapping. For example, the devmap_access(9E)
entry point allows the drivers to perform context switching by
unloading the mappings of other processes and to load the mapping of
the calling process. Device drivers may specify NULL to callbackops
which means the drivers do not want to be notified by the system.


The maximum protection allowed for the mapping is specified in
maxprot. accattrp defines the device access attributes. See
ddi_device_acc_attr(9S) for more details.


devmap_devmem_setup() is used for device memory to map in the
register set given by rnumber and the offset into the register
address space given by roff. The system uses rnumber and roff to go
up the device tree to get the physical address that corresponds to
roff. The range to be affected is defined by len and roff. The range
from roff to roff + len must be a physical contiguous memory and page
aligned.


Drivers use devmap_umem_setup() for kernel memory to map in the
kernel memory described by cookie and the offset into the kernel
memory space given by koff. cookie is a kernel memory pointer
obtained from ddi_umem_alloc(9F). If cookie is NULL,
devmap_umem_setup() returns -1. The range to be affected is defined
by len and koff. The range from koff to koff + len must be within the
limits of the kernel memory described by koff + len and must be page
aligned.


Drivers use devmap_umem_setup() to export the kernel memory allocated
by ddi_umem_alloc(9F) to user space. The system selects a user
virtual address that is aligned with the kernel virtual address being
mapped to avoid cache incoherence if the mapping is not MAP_FIXED.

RETURN VALUES


0
Successful completion.


-1
An error occurred.
