Kernel Functions for Driversddi_mem_get8(9F)


NAME

 ddi_mem_get8, ddi_mem_get16, ddi_mem_get32, ddi_mem_get64, ddi_mem_getw, ddi_mem_getl, ddi_mem_getll, ddi_mem_getb - read data from mapped device in the memory space or allocated DMA memory

SYNOPSIS

 
#include <sys/ddi.h> 
#include <sys/sunddi.h>
uint8_t ddi_mem_get8(ddi_acc_handle_t handle, uint8_t *dev_addr);
 uint16_t ddi_mem_get16(ddi_acc_handle_t handle, uint16_t * dev_addr);
 uint32_t ddi_mem_get32(ddi_acc_handle_t handle, uint32_t *dev_addr);
 uint64_t ddi_mem_get64(ddi_acc_handle_t handle, uint64_t *dev_addr);

INTERFACE LEVEL

 

Solaris DDI specific (Solaris DDI).

PARAMETERS

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

DESCRIPTION

 

These routines generate a read of various sizes from memory space or allocated DMA memory. The ddi_mem_get8(), ddi_mem_get16(), ddi_mem_get32(), and ddi_mem_get64() functions read 8 bits, 16 bits, 32 bits and 64 bits of data, respectively, from the device address, dev_addr, in memory space.

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.

SEE ALSO

 

ddi_mem_put8(9F), ddi_mem_rep_get8(9F), ddi_mem_rep_put8(9F), ddi_regs_map_setup(9F), ddi_device_acc_attr(9S)

NOTES

 

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:
