It is used by some \fBSCSI \fRcommands such as \fBREQUEST_SENSE\fR, which involve a small amount of data and require cache-consistent memory for proper operation. It uses \fBddi_iopb_alloc\fR(9F) for allocating the data area and \fBscsi_resalloc\fR(9F) to allocate the packet and \fBDMA\fR resources. .sp .LP \fIcallback\fR indicates what \fBget_pktiopb()\fR should do when resources are not available: .sp .ne 2 .na \fB\fBNULL_FUNC\fR\fR .ad .RS 16n Do not wait for resources. Return a \fINULL\fR pointer. .RE .sp .ne 2 .na \fB\fBSLEEP_FUNC\fR\fR .ad .RS 16n Wait indefinitely for resources. .RE .sp .ne 2 .na \fBOther Values\fR .ad .RS 16n \fIcallback\fR points to a function which is called when resources may have become available. \fIcallback\fR \fBmust\fR return either \fB0\fR (indicating that it attempted to allocate resources but failed to do so again), in which case it is put back on a list to be called again later, or \fB1\fR indicating either success in allocating resources or indicating that it no longer cares for a retry. .RE .sp .LP The \fBfree_pktiopb()\fR function is used for freeing the packet and its associated resources. .SH RETURN VALUES .sp .LP The \fBget_pktiopb()\fR function returns a pointer to the newly allocated \fBscsi_pkt\fR or a \fINULL\fR pointer. .SH CONTEXT .sp .LP If \fIcallback\fR is \fBSLEEP_FUNC\fR, then this routine can be called only from user or kernel context. Otherwise, it can be called from user, interrupt, or kernel context. The \fIcallback\fR function should not block or call routines that block. .sp .LP The \fBfree_pktiopb()\fR function can be called from user, interrupt, or kernel context. .SH ATTRIBUTES .sp .LP See \fBattributes\fR(5) for a description of the following attributes: .sp .sp .TS box; c | c l | l .

These functions have been replaced by, respectively, \fBscsi_alloc_consistent_buf\fR(9F) and \fBscsi_free_consistent_buf\fR(9F). .sp .LP The \fBget_pktiopb()\fR function uses scarce resources. For this reason and its obsolescence (see above), its use is discouraged.
