36.In sys/param.h

45.Ft void
46.Fn devfs_clear_cdevpriv "void"
47.Sh DESCRIPTION
48The
49.Fn devfs_xxx_cdevpriv
50family of functions allows the
51.Fa cdev
52driver methods to associate some driver-specific data with each
53user process
54.Xr open 2
55of the device special file.
56Currently, functioning of these functions is restricted to the context
57of the
58.Fa cdevsw
59switch method calls performed as
60.Xr devfs 5
61operations in response to system calls that use filedescriptors.
62.Pp
63The
64.Fn devfs_set_cdevpriv
65function associates a data pointed by
66.Va priv
67with current calling context (filedescriptor).
68The data may be retrieved later, possibly from another call
69performed on this filedescriptor, by the
70.Fn devfs_get_cdevpriv
71function.
72The
73.Fn devfs_clear_cdevpriv
74disassociates previously attached data from context.
75Immediately after
76.Fn devfs_clear_cdevpriv
77finished operating, the
78.Va dtr
79callback is called, with private data supplied
80.Va data
81argument.
82The
83.Fn devfs_clear_cdevpriv
84function will be also be called if the open callback
85function returns an error code.
86.Pp
87On the last filedescriptor close, system automatically arranges
88.Fn devfs_clear_cdevpriv
89call.
90.Pp
91If successful, the functions return 0.
92.Pp
93The function
94.Fn devfs_set_cdevpriv
95returns the following values on error:
96.Bl -tag -width Er
97.It Bq Er ENOENT
98The current call is not associated with some filedescriptor.
99.It Bq Er EBUSY
100The private driver data is already associated with current
101filedescriptor.
102.El
103.Pp
104The function
105.Fn devfs_get_cdevpriv
106returns the following values on error:
107.Bl -tag -width Er
108.It Bq Er EBADF
109The current call is not associated with some filedescriptor.
110.It Bq Er ENOENT
111The private driver data was not associated with current
112filedescriptor, or
113.Fn devfs_clear_cdevpriv
114was called.
