.Nm devfs_set_cdevpriv ,

.Nd manage per-open filedescriptor data for devices
.Sh SYNOPSIS
.In sys/param.h
.In sys/conf.h
.Bd -literal
typedef	void (*cdevpriv_dtr_t)(void *data);
.Ed
.Ft int
.Fn devfs_get_cdevpriv "void **datap"
.Ft int
.Fn devfs_set_cdevpriv "void *priv" "cdevpriv_dtr_t dtr"
.Ft void
.Fn devfs_clear_cdevpriv "void"
.Sh DESCRIPTION
The
.Fn devfs_xxx_cdevpriv
family of functions allows the
.Fa cdev
driver methods to associate some driver-specific data with each
user process
.Xr open 2
of the device special file.
Currently, functioning of these functions is restricted to the context
of the
.Fa cdevsw
switch method calls performed as
.Xr devfs 5
operations in response to system calls that use filedescriptors.
.Pp
The
.Fn devfs_set_cdevpriv
function associates a data pointed by
.Va priv
with current calling context (filedescriptor).
The data may be retrieved later, possibly from another call
performed on this filedescriptor, by the
.Fn devfs_get_cdevpriv
function.
The
.Fn devfs_clear_cdevpriv
disassociates previously attached data from context.
Immediately after
.Fn devfs_clear_cdevpriv
finished operating, the
.Va dtr
callback is called, with private data supplied
.Va data
argument.
The
.Fn devfs_clear_cdevpriv
function will be also be called if the open callback
function returns an error code.
.Pp
On the last filedescriptor close, system automatically arranges
.Fn devfs_clear_cdevpriv
call.
.Pp
If successful, the functions return 0.
.Pp
The function
.Fn devfs_set_cdevpriv
returns the following values on error:
.Bl -tag -width Er
.It Bq Er ENOENT
The current call is not associated with some filedescriptor.
.It Bq Er EBUSY
The private driver data is already associated with current
filedescriptor.
.El
.Pp
The function
.Fn devfs_get_cdevpriv
returns the following values on error:
.Bl -tag -width Er
.It Bq Er EBADF
The current call is not associated with some filedescriptor.
.It Bq Er ENOENT
The private driver data was not associated with current
filedescriptor, or
.Fn devfs_clear_cdevpriv
was called.
