#include <sys/scsi/scsi.h> scsi_hba_tran_t *scsi_hba_tran_alloc(dev_info_t *dip, int flags);
void scsi_hba_tran_free(scsi_hba_tran_t *hba_tran);
Pointer to a dev_info structure, defining the HBA driver instance.
Flag modifiers. The only possible flag value is SCSI_HBA_CANSLEEP (memory allocation may sleep).
Pointer to a scsi_hba_tran(9S) structure.
The scsi_hba_tran_alloc() function allocates a scsi_hba_tran(9S) structure for a HBA driver. The HBA must use this structure to register its transport vectors with the system by using scsi_hba_attach_setup(9F).
If the flag SCSI_HBA_CANSLEEP is set in flags, scsi_hba_tran_alloc() may sleep when allocating resources; otherwise it may not sleep, and callers should be prepared to deal with allocation failures.
For scsi_hba_tran_free():
The scsi_hba_tran_free() function is used to free the scsi_hba_tran(9S) structure allocated by scsi_hba_tran_alloc().
The scsi_hba_tran_free() function can be called from user, interrupt, or kernel context context.
