NAME
cb_ops - character/block entry points structure
SYNOPSIS
#include <sys/conf.h>
#include <sys/ddi.h>
#include <sys/sunddi.h>

INTERFACE LEVEL
Solaris DDI specific (Solaris DDI)
DESCRIPTION
The cb_ops structure contains all entry points for drivers that support
both character and block entry points. All leaf device drivers that
support direct user process access to a device should declare a cb_ops
structure.
+ All drivers that safely allow multiple threads of execution in the driver
+ at the same time must set the D_MP flag in the cb_flag field. See
+ open(9E).
- All drivers that safely allow multiple threads of execution in the
- driver at the same time must set the D_MP flag in the cb_flag field.
- See open(9E).
-
-
If the driver properly handles 64-bit offsets, it should also set the
D_64BIT flag in the cb_flag field. This specifies that the driver will
use the uio_loffset field of the uio(9S) structure.
-
If the driver returns EINTR from open(9E), it should also set the
D_OPEN_RETURNS_EINTR flag in the cb_flag field. This lets the framework
know that it is safe for the driver to return EINTR when waiting, to
- provide exclusion for a last-reference close(9E) call to complete
- before calling open(9E).
+ provide exclusion for a last-reference close(9E) call to complete before
+ calling open(9E).
+ The mt-streams(9F) function describes other flags that can be set in the
+ cb_flag field.
- The mt-streams(9F) function describes other flags that can be set in
- the cb_flag field.
-
-
The cb_rev is the cb_ops structure revision number. This field must be
set to CB_REV.
-
Non-STREAMS drivers should set cb_str to NULL.
-
The following DDI/DKI or DKI-only or DDI-only functions are provided in
the character/block driver operations structure.
