From 1da177e4c3f41524e886b7f1b8a0c1fc7321cac2 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Linus Torvalds Date: Sat, 16 Apr 2005 15:20:36 -0700 Subject: Linux-2.6.12-rc2 Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history, even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about 3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good infrastructure for it.

Introduction + +The Linux I2O subsystem provides a set of ioctl() commands that can be +utilized by user space applications to communicate with IOPs and devices +on individual IOPs. This document defines the specific ioctl() commands +that are available to the user and provides examples of their uses. + +This document assumes the reader is familiar with or has access to the +I2O specification as no I2O message parameters are outlined. For information +on the specification, see http://www.i2osig.org + +This document and the I2O user space interface are currently maintained +by Deepak Saxena. Please send all comments, errata, and bug fixes to +deepak@csociety.purdue.edu + +II. IOP Access + +Access to the I2O subsystem is provided through the device file named +/dev/i2o/ctl. This file is a character file with major number 10 and minor +number 166. It can be created through the following command: + + mknod /dev/i2o/ctl c 10 166 + +III. Determining the IOP Count + + SYNOPSIS + + ioctl(fd, I2OGETIOPS, int *count); + + u8 count[MAX_I2O_CONTROLLERS]; + + DESCRIPTION + + This function returns the system's active IOP table. count should + point to a buffer containing MAX_I2O_CONTROLLERS entries. Upon + returning, each entry will contain a non-zero value if the given + IOP unit is active, and NULL if it is inactive or non-existent. + + RETURN VALUE. + + Returns 0 if no errors occur, and -1 otherwise. If an error occurs, + errno is set appropriately: + + EFAULT Invalid user space pointer was passed + +IV. Getting Hardware Resource Table + + SYNOPSIS + + ioctl(fd, I2OHRTGET, struct i2o_cmd_hrt *hrt); + + struct i2o_cmd_hrtlct + { + u32 iop; /* IOP unit number */ + void *resbuf; /* Buffer for result */ + u32 *reslen; /* Buffer length in bytes */ + }; + + DESCRIPTION + + This function returns the Hardware Resource Table of the IOP specified + by hrt->iop in the buffer pointed to by hrt->resbuf.

If an error occurs, -1 + is returned and errno is set appropriately: + + EFAULT Invalid user space pointer was passed + ENXIO Invalid IOP number + ENOBUFS Buffer not large enough.

The operation list for the message is + sent through the ops->opbuf buffer, and the result list is written + into the buffer pointed to by ops->resbuf. The number of bytes + written is placed into *(ops->reslen). + + RETURNS + + The return value is the size in bytes of the data written into + ops->resbuf if no errors occur.

The DownloadFlags, SwID, SwType + and SwSize fields of the ExecSwDownload message are filled in with + the values of sw->flags, sw->sw_id, sw->sw_type and *(sw->swlen). + + The fragments _must_ be sent in order and be 8K in size. The last + fragment _may_ be shorter, however. The kernel will compute its + size based on information in the sw->swlen field. + + Please note that SW transfers can take a long time. + + RETURNS + + This function returns 0 no errors occur. If an error occurs, -1 + is returned and errno is set appropriatly: + + EFAULT Invalid user space pointer was passed + ENXIO Invalid IOP number + ETIMEDOUT Timeout waiting for reply message + ENOMEM Kernel memory allocation error + +IX.

The + user is responsible for allocating memory pointed by sw->buf.

Removing Software + + SYNOPSIS + + ioctl(fd, I2OSWDEL, struct i2o_sw_xfer *sw); + + struct i2o_sw_xfer + { + u32 iop; /* IOP unit number */ + u8 flags; /* RemoveFlags */ + u8 sw_type; /* Software type */ + u32 sw_id; /* Software ID */ + void *buf; /* Unused */ + u32 *swlen; /* Length of the software data */ + u32 *maxfrag; /* Unused */ + u32 *curfrag; /* Unused */ + }; + + DESCRIPTION + + This function removes software from the IOP identified by sw->iop. + The RemoveFlags, SwID, SwType and SwSize fields of the ExecSwRemove message + are filled in with the values of sw->flags, sw->sw_id, sw->sw_type and + *(sw->swlen). Give zero in *(sw->len) if the value is unknown. IOP uses + *(sw->swlen) value to verify correct identication of the module to remove. + The actual size of the module is written into *(sw->swlen). + + RETURNS + + This function returns 0 if no errors occur. If an error occurs, -1 + is returned and errno is set appropriatly: + + EFAULT Invalid user space pointer was passed + ENXIO Invalid IOP number + ETIMEDOUT Timeout waiting for reply message + ENOMEM Kernel memory allocation error + +X. Validating Configuration + + SYNOPSIS + + ioctl(fd, I2OVALIDATE, int *iop); + u32 iop; + + DESCRIPTION + + This function posts an ExecConfigValidate message to the controller + identified by iop. This message indicates that the current + configuration is accepted. The iop changes the status of suspect drivers + to valid and may delete old drivers from its store. + + RETURNS + + This function returns 0 if no erro occur. If an error occurs, -1 is + returned and errno is set appropriatly: + + ETIMEDOUT Timeout waiting for reply message + ENXIO Invalid IOP number + +XI. Configuration Dialog + + SYNOPSIS + + ioctl(fd, I2OHTML, struct i2o_html *htquery); + struct i2o_html + { + u32 iop; /* IOP unit number */ + u32 tid; /* Target device ID */ + u32 page; /* HTML page */ + void *resbuf; /* Buffer for reply HTML page */ + u32 *reslen; /* Length in bytes of reply buffer */ + void *qbuf; /* Pointer to HTTP query string */ + u32 qlen; /* Length in bytes of query string buffer */ + }; + + DESCRIPTION + + This function posts an UtilConfigDialog message to the device identified + by htquery->iop and htquery->tid. The requested HTML page number is + provided by the htquery->page field, and the resultant data is stored + in the buffer pointed to by htquery->resbuf. If there is an HTTP query + string that is to be sent to the device, it should be sent in the buffer + pointed to by htquery->qbuf. If there is no query string, this field + should be set to NULL. The actual size of the reply received is written + into *(htquery->reslen). + + RETURNS + + This function returns 0 if no error occur. If an error occurs, -1 + is returned and errno is set appropriatly: + + EFAULT Invalid user space pointer was passed + ENXIO Invalid IOP number + ENOBUFS Buffer not large enough. If this occurs, the required + buffer length is written into *(ops->reslen) + ETIMEDOUT Timeout waiting for reply message + ENOMEM Kernel memory allocation error + +XII. Events + + In the process of determining this. Current idea is to have use + the select() interface to allow user apps to periodically poll + the /dev/i2o/ctl device for events. When select() notifies the user + that an event is available, the user would call read() to retrieve + a list of all the events that are pending for the specific device. + +============================================================================= +Revision History +============================================================================= + +Rev 0.1 - 04/01/99 +- Initial revision + +Rev 0.2 - 04/06/99 +- Changed return values to match UNIX ioctl() standard.
