.SH INTERFACE LEVEL
.sp
.LP
Solaris DDI specific (Solaris DDI).
.SH DESCRIPTION
.sp
.LP
The following routines are used to provide unique identifiers, device
\fBID\fRs, for devices. Specifically, kernel modules use these interfaces to
identify and locate devices, independent of the device's physical connection or
its logical device name or number.
.sp
.LP
\fBddi_devid_compare()\fR compares two device \fBID\fRs byte-by-byte and
determines both equality and sort order.
.sp
.LP
\fBddi_devid_sizeof()\fR returns the number of bytes allocated for the passed
in device \fBID\fR (\fIdevid\fR).
.sp
.LP
\fBddi_devid_init()\fR allocates memory and initializes the opaque device
\fBID\fR structure. This function does not store the \fIdevid\fR. If the device
id is not derived from the device's firmware, it is the driver's responsibility
to store the \fIdevid\fR on some reliable store. When a \fIdevid_type\fR of
either \fBDEVID_SCSI3_WWN,\fR \fBDEVID_SCSI_SERIAL\fR, or \fBDEVID_ENCAP\fR is
accepted, an array of bytes (\fIid\fR) must be passed in (\fInbytes\fR).
.sp
.LP
When the \fIdevid_type\fR \fBDEVID_FAB\fR is used, the array of bytes
(\fIid\fR) must be \fBNULL\fR and the length (\fInbytes\fR) must be zero. The
fabricated device ids, \fBDEVID_FAB\fR will be initialized with the machine's
host id and a timestamp.
.sp
.LP
Drivers must free the memory allocated by this function, using the
\fBddi_devid_free()\fR function.
.sp
.LP
\fBddi_devid_free()\fR frees the memory allocated for the returned \fIdevid\fR
by the \fBddi_devid_init()\fR and \fBdevid_str_decode()\fR functions.
.sp
.LP
\fBddi_devid_register()\fR registers the device \fBID\fR address (\fIdevid\fR)
with the \fBDDI\fR framework, associating it with the \fBdev_info\fR passed in
(\fIdip\fR). The drivers must register device \fBID\fRs at attach time. See
\fBattach\fR(9E).
.sp
.LP
\fBddi_devid_unregister()\fR removes the device \fBID\fR address from the
\fBdev_info\fR passed in (\fIdip\fR). Drivers must use this function to
unregister the device \fBID\fR when devices are being detached. This function
does not free the space allocated for the device \fBID\fR. The driver must free
the space allocated for the device \fBID\fR, using the \fBddi_devid_free()\fR
function. See \fBdetach\fR(9E).
.sp
.LP
\fBddi_devid_valid()\fR validates the device \fBID\fR (\fIdevid\fR) passed in.
The driver must use this function to validate any fabricated device \fBID\fR
that has been stored on a device.
.sp
.LP
The \fBddi_devid_get()\fR function returns a pointer to the device ID structure
through \fIretdevid\fR if there is already a registered device ID associated
with the \fBdev_info\fR node. A driver can use this interface to check and get
the device ID associated with the \fBdev_info\fR node. It returns
\fBDDI_FAILURE\fR if no device ID is registered for the node.
.sp
.LP
The \fBddi_devid_get()\fR function allocates memory for the opaque device ID
structure and initializes it with the associated device ID and returns the
pointer to it. The driver must free the memory allocated by this function using
the \fBddi_devid_free()\fR function.
.sp
.LP
The \fBddi_devid_str_encode()\fR function encodes a \fIdevid\fR and minor_name
into a null-terminated ASCII string, returning a pointer to that string. If
both a \fIdevid\fR and a \fIminor_name\fR are non-null, then a slash (\fB/\fR)
is used to separate the \fIdevid\fR from the \fIminor_name\fR in the encoded
string. If \fIminor_name\fR is null, then only the \fIdevid\fR is encoded. If
the \fIdevid\fR is null, then the special string \fBid0\fR is returned. Note
that you cannot compare the returned string against another string with
\fBstrcmp()\fR to determine \fIdevid\fR equality. The returned string must be
freed by calling \fBdevid_str_free()\fR.
.sp
.LP
The \fBddi_devid_str_decode()\fR function takes a string previously produced by
the \fBdevid_str_encode\fR(3DEVID) or \fBddi_devid_str_encode()\fR function and
decodes the contained device ID and minor_name, allocating and returning
pointers to the extracted parts through the \fIretdevid\fR and
\fIretminor_name\fR arguments. If the special \fIdevidstr\fR \fBid0\fR was
specified then the returned device ID and minor name will both be null. A
non-null returned \fIdevid\fR must be freed by the caller through the
\fBddi_devid_free()\fR function. A non-null returned minor name must be freed
by calling \fBddi_devid_str_free()\fR.
.sp
.LP
The \fBddi_devid_str_free()\fR function is used to free all strings returned by
the \fBddi_devid\fR functions (the \fBddi_devid_str_encode()\fR function return
value and the returned \fIretminor_name\fR argument).
