.Sh DESCRIPTION
The
.Fn mc_open
and
.Fn mc_close
entry points are called when the file system node corresponding to the
device is opened.
Standard device drivers do not need to implement this function and should not
define the callback.
.Pp
The GLDv3 guarantees that calls to the
.Fn mc_open
and
.Fn mc_close
entry points are serialized.
Only one such call will be issued to the device driver at any time.
.Sh RETURN VALUES
Upon successful completion, the device driver should return
.Sy 0
for its
.Fn mc_open
entry point.
Otherwise, it should return a non-zero error number to indicate an error
occurred.
