 LDI_ADD_EVENT_HANDLER 9F "April 9, 2016"
 NAME
ldi_add_event_handler - add NDI event service callback handler
 SYNOPSIS

#include <sys/ddi_obsolete.h>

int ldi_add_event_handler(ldi_handle_t lh, ddi_eventcookie_t ec,
 void (*handler)(ldi_handle_t, ddi_eventcookie_t,
 void *, void *) void *arg, ldi_callback_id_t *id);


 INTERFACE LEVEL

Obsolete
 PARAMETERS
ldi_handle_t lh

Layered handle representing event notification device.


ddi_eventcookie_t ec

Cookie returned from call to ldi_get_eventcookie(9F).


void (*handler)(ldi_handle_t, ddi_eventcookie_t, void *, void *)

Callback handler for NDI event service notification.


void *arg

Pointer to opaque data supplied by caller. Typically, this is a pointer to the
layered driver's softstate structure.


ldi_callback_id_t *id

Pointer to registration id, where a unique registration id is returned.
Registration id must be saved and used when calling
ldi_remove_event_handler(9F) to unregister a callback handler.


 DESCRIPTION

This function is obsolete and is only maintained for compatibility. Use of this
function is strongly discouraged. For equivalent functionality provided by new
interfaces, see ldi_ev_get_cookie(9F) and
ldi_ev_register_callbacks(9F).

The ldi_add_event_handler() function adds a callback handler to be
invoked at the occurrence of the event specified by the cookie. Adding a
callback handler is also known as subscribing to an event. Upon successful
subscription, the handler is invoked when the event occurs. You can unregister
the handler by using ldi_remove_event_handler(9F).

An instance of a layered driver can register multiple handlers for an event or
a single handler for multiple events. Callback order is not defined and should
be assumed to be random.

The routine handler is invoked with the following arguments:
ldi_handle_t lh

Layered handle representing the device for which the event notification is
requested.


ddi_eventcookie_t ec

Structure describing event that occurred.


void *arg

Opaque data pointer provided by the driver during callback registration.


void *impl_data

Pointer to event specific data defined by the framework that invokes the
callback function.


 RETURN VALUES
DDI_SUCCESS

Callback handler registered successfully.


DDI_FAILURE

Failed to register callback handler. Possible reasons include lack of resources
or a bad cookie.


 CONTEXT

The ldi_add_event_handler() function can be called from user and kernel
contexts only.

Writing Device Drivers
 NOTES

Layered drivers must remove all registered callback handlers for a device
instance, represented by the layered handle, by calling
ldi_remove_event_handler(9F) before the layered driver's detach(9E)
routine completes.
