-
DKIOCEJECT
- If the drive supports removable media, this ioctl() requests the disk drive to eject its disk.
-
DKIOCREMOVABLE
- The argument to this ioctl() is an integer. After successful completion, this ioctl() will set that integer to a non-zero value if the drive in question has removable
media. If the media is not removable, that integer will be set to 0.
-
DKIOCSTATE
- This ioctl() blocks until the state of the drive, inserted or ejected, is changed. The argument is a pointer to a dkio_state, enum, whose possible enumerations
are listed below. The initial value should be either the last reported state of the drive, or DKIO_NONE. Upon return, the enum pointed to by the argument is updated with the current state of the drive.
| |
enum dkio_state {
DKIO_NONE, /* Return disk's current state */
DKIO_EJECTED, /* Disk state is 'ejected' */
DKIO_INSERTED /* Disk state is 'inserted' */
};
|
-
DKIOCLOCK
- For devices with removable media, this ioctl() requests the disk drive to lock the door.
-
DKIOCUNLOCK
- For devices with removable media, this ioctl() requests the disk drive to unlock the door.
-
DKIOCGMEDIAINFO
- The argument to this ioctl() is a pointer to a dk_minfo structure. The structure indicates the type of media or the command set profile used by the drive
to operate on the media. The dk_minfo structure also indicates the logical media blocksize the drive uses as the basic unit blocksize of operation and the raw formatted capacity of the media in number of logical blocks.

#define DK_JAZ 0x10004 /* IOMEGA JAZ media */
|
If the media exists and the host can obtain a current profile list, the command will succeed and return the dk_minfo structure with data representing that media.
If there is no media in the drive, the command will fail and the host will return an ENXIO error, indicating that it cannot gather the information requested.
If the profile list is not available, the host will attempt to identify the media-type based on the available information.
If identification is not possible, the host will return media type DK_UNKNOWN. See NOTES for blocksize usage and capacity information.
-
DKIOCSMBOOT
- The argument is a pointer to struct mboot.
Copies the mboot information supplied in the argument to the absolute sector 0 of the device. Prior to copying the information, this ioctl() performs the following checks on the mboot data:
- Ensures that the signature field is set to 0xAA55.
- Ensures that partitions do not overlap.
- On SPARC platforms, determines if the device is a removable media.
If the above verification fails, errno will be set to EINVAL and the ioctl() command will fail.
IA Platforms -- Upon successful write of mboot, the partition map structure maintained in the driver is updated. If the new Solaris partition is different from the previous one, the internal VTOC table maintained in the driver will be set as follows:
If _SUNOS_VTOC_8 is defined:
| PARTITION | START | SIZE |
| 0 | 0 | Capacity of device |
| 2 | 0 | Capacity of device |
If _SUNOS_VTOC_16 is defined:
| PARTITION | START | SIZE |
| 2 | 0 | Size specified in mboot - 2 cylinders |
| 8 | 0 | Sectors/cylinder |
| 9 | Sectors/cylinder | 2 * sectors/cylinder |
To determine if the Solaris partition has changed:
If either offset or the size of the Solaris partition is different from the previous one then it shall be deemed to have changed. In all other cases, the internal VTOC info will remain as before.
SPARC Platforms -- The VTOC label and mboot both occupy the same location, namely sector 0. As a result, following the successful write of mboot info, the internal VTOC table maintained in the driver will be set as follows:
| PARTITION | START | SIZE |
| 0 | 0 | Capacity of device |
| 2 | 0 | Capacity of device |
See the NOTES section for usage of DKIOCSMBOOT when modifying Solaris partitions.
-
DKIOCGMBOOT
- The argument is a pointer to struct mboot. The 512 bytes of absolute sector 0 of the device is copied to the mboot structure pointed to by the argument.
RETURN VALUES
| |
Upon successful completion, the value returned is 0. Otherwise, -1 is returned and errno is set to indicate the error.
|
IA Only
| |
The following ioctl() requests set and/or retrieve the current disk controller, partitions, or geometry information on IA architecture.
-
DKIOCG_PHYGEOM
- The argument is a pointer to a dk_geom structure (described below). This ioctl() gets the driver's notion of the physical geometry of the disk drive. It
is functionally identical to the DKIOCGGEOM ioctl().
-
DKIOCG_VIRTGEOM
- The argument is a pointer to a dk_geom structure (described below). This ioctl() gets the controller's (and hence the driver's) notion of the virtual geometry
of the disk drive. Virtual geometry is a view of the disk geometry maintained by the firmware in a host bus adapter or disk controller. If the disk is larger than 8 Gbytes, this ioctl will fail because a CHS-based geometry is not relevant or useful for this drive.

-
DKIOCADDBAD
- This ioctl() forces the driver to re-examine the alternates slice and rebuild the internal bad block map accordingly. It should be used whenever the alternates slice is changed
by any method other than the addbadsec(1M) or format(1M) utilities. DKIOCADDBAD can only be used for software remapping on IDE drives; SCSI drives use hardware remapping of alternate sectors.
-
DKIOCPARTINFO
- The argument is a pointer to a part_info structure (described below). This ioctl() gets the driver's notion of the size and extent of the partition or slice
indicated by the file descriptor argument.

/*
* Used by applications to get partition or slice information
*/
struct part_info {
daddr_t p_start;
int p_length;
