NAME

ddi_io_rep_get8, ddi_io_rep_get16, ddi_io_rep_get32, ddi_io_rep_getw, ddi_io_rep_getb, ddi_io_rep_getl - read multiple data from the mapped device register in I/O space  

SYNOPSIS

#include <sys/ddi.h> 
#include <sys/sunddi.h>

void ddi_io_rep_get8(ddi_acc_handle_t handle, uint8_t *host_addr, uint8_t *dev_addr,, size_t repcount);

void ddi_io_rep_get16(ddi_acc_handle_t handle, uint16_t *host_addr, uint16_t *dev_addr,, size_t repcount);

void ddi_io_rep_get32(ddi_acc_handle_t handle, uint32_t *host_addr, uint32_t *dev_addr,, size_t repcount);  

INTERFACE LEVEL

Solaris DDI specific (Solaris DDI).  

PARAMETERS

handle The data access handle returned from setup calls, such as ddi_regs_map_setup(9F).

host_addr Base host address.

dev_addr Base device address.

repcount Number of data accesses to perform.

 

DESCRIPTION

These routines generate multiple reads from the device address, dev_addr, in I/O space. repcount data is copied from the device address, dev_addr, to the host address, host_addr. For each input datum, the ddi_io_rep_get8(), ddi_io_rep_get16(), and ddi_io_rep_get32() functions read 8 bits, 16 bits, and 32 bits of data, respectively, from the device address. host_addr must be aligned to the datum boundary described by the function.

Each individual datum will automatically be translated to maintain a consistent view between the host and the device based on the encoded information in the data access handle. The translation may involve byte-swapping if the host and the device have incompatible endian characteristics.  

CONTEXT

These functions can be called from user, kernel, or interrupt context.

NOTES

For drivers using these functions, it may not be easy to maintain a single source to support devices with multiple bus versions. For example, devices may offer I/O space in ISA bus (see isa(4)) but memory space only in PCI local bus. This is especially true in instruction set architectures such as x86 where accesses to the memory and I/O space are different.

The functions described in this manual page previously used symbolic names which specified their data access size; the function names have been changed so they now specify a fixed-width data size. See the following table for the new name equivalents:
