USBA_HCDI_GET_DEVICE_PRIVATE(9F) Kernel Functions for Drivers

NAME

usba_hcdi_get_device_private - get HCD per-device private value

SYNOPSIS

#include <sys/usb/usba/hcdi.h>

void *
usba_hcdi_get_device_private(usba_device_t *usb_device);

INTERFACE LEVEL

Volatile - illumos USB HCD private function

This is a private function that is not part of the stable DDI. It may
be removed or changed at any time.

PARAMETERS

usb_device Pointer to a USB device.

DESCRIPTION

The usba_hcdi_get_device_private() function obtains the private data
set by a HCD driver. This private data is created by the HCD driver's
optional entry point usba_hcdi_device_init(9E) and is removed during
the HCD driver's optional entry point usba_hcdi_device_fini(9E). If an
HCD driver does not implement these entry points then the value
obtained by a call will always be the null pointer, NULL.

The framework provides no form of locking of this data and it is up to
the HCD driver to use whatever synchronization primitives it requires
if needed.

CONTEXT

The usba_hcdi_get_device_private() function is generally called from
the context of a usba_hcdi(9E) entry point, but may be called from
user, kernel, or interrupt context.

RETURN VALUES

The private data set by an HCD driver is always returned. If no such
value has been set, then NULL is returned.
