Disk drivers support a set of ioctl(2) requests for disk controller, geometry, and partition information. Basic to these ioctl() requests are the definitions in <sys/dkio.h>.
The following ioctl() requests set and/or retrieve the current disk controller, partitions, or geometry information on all architectures:
DKIOCINFO
The argument is a pointer to a dk_cinfo structure (described below). This structure tells the controller-type and attributes regarding bad-block processing done on the controller.

DKIOCGAPART
The argument is a pointer to a dk_allmap structure (described below). This ioctl() gets the controller's notion of the current partition table for disk drive.
DKIOCSAPART
The argument is a pointer to a dk_allmap structure (described below). This ioctl() sets the controller's notion of the partition table without changing the disk itself.

DKIOCGEXTVTOC
The argument is a pointer to an extvtoc structure (described below). This ioctl returns the device's current volume table of contents (VTOC). VTOC is extended to support a disk up to 2TB in size. For disks larger than 1TB this ioctl must be used instead of DKIOCGVTOC.
DKIOCSEXTVTOC
The argument is a pointer to an extvtoc structure (described below). This ioctl changes the VTOC associated with the device. VTOC is extended to support a disk up to 2TB in size. For disks larger than 1TB this ioctl must be used instead of DKIOCSVTOC.

Partition permissions flags and identification tags
are defined the same as vtoc structure.
DKIOCEJECT
If the drive supports removable media, this ioctl() requests the disk drive to eject its disk.
DKIOCREMOVABLE
The argument to this ioctl() is an integer. After successful completion, this ioctl() sets that integer to a non-zero value if the drive in question has removable media. If the media is not removable, the integer is set to 0.
DKIOCHOTPLUGGABLE
The argument to this ioctl() is an integer. After successful completion, this ioctl() sets that integer to a non-zero value if the drive in question is hotpluggable. If the media is not hotpluggable, the integer is set to 0.
DKIOCSTATE
This ioctl() blocks until the state of the drive, inserted or ejected, is changed. The argument is a pointer to a dkio_state, enum, whose possible enumerations are listed below. The initial value should be either the last reported state of the drive, or DKIO_NONE. Upon return, the enum pointed to by the argument is updated with the current state of the drive.
enum dkio_state {
DKIO_NONE, /* Return disk's current state */
DKIO_EJECTED, /* Disk state is 'ejected' */
DKIO_INSERTED /* Disk state is 'inserted' */
};
DKIOCLOCK
For devices with removable media, this ioctl() requests the disk drive to lock the door.
DKIOCUNLOCK
For devices with removable media, this ioctl() requests the disk drive to unlock the door.
DKIOCGMEDIAINFO
The argument to this ioctl() is a pointer to a dk_minfo structure. The structure indicates the type of media or the command set profile used by the drive to operate on the media. The dk_minfo structure also indicates the logical media block size the drive uses as the basic unit block size of operation and the raw formatted capacity of the media in number of logical blocks.
DKIOCGMEDIAINFOEXT
The argument to this ioctl() is a pointer to a dk_minfo_ext structure. The structure indicates the type of media or the command set profile used by the drive to operate on the media. The dk_minfo_ext structure also indicates the logical media block size the drive uses as the basic unit block size of operation, the raw formatted capacity of the media in number of logical blocks and the physical block size of the media.
/*
* Used for media info or profile info
*/
struct dk_minfo {
uint_t dki_media_type; /* Media type or profile info */
uint_t dki_lbsize; /* Logical blocksize of media */
diskaddr_t dki_capacity; /* Capacity as # of dki_lbsize blks */
};

/*
* SFF 8090 Specification Version 3, media types 0x01 - 0xfffe are
* retained to maintain compatibility with SFF8090. The following
* define the optical media type.
*/
#define DK_MO_ERASABLE 0x03 /* MO Erasable */
#define DK_MO_WRITEONCE 0x04 /* MO Write once */
#define DK_AS_MO 0x05 /* AS MO */
#define DK_CDROM 0x08 /* CDROM */
#define DK_CDR 0x09 /* CD-R */
#define DK_CDRW 0x0A /* CD-RW */
#define DK_DVDROM 0x10 /* DVD-ROM */
#define DK_DVDR 0x11 /* DVD-R */
#define DK_DVDRAM 0x12 /* DVD_RAM or DVD-RW */
/*
* Media types for other rewritable magnetic media
*/
#define DK_FIXED_DISK 0x10001 /* Fixed disk SCSI or otherwise */
#define DK_FLOPPY 0x10002 /* Floppy media */
#define DK_ZIP 0x10003 /* IOMEGA ZIP media */
#define DK_JAZ 0x10004 /* IOMEGA JAZ media */
If the media exists and the host can obtain a current profile list, the command succeeds and returns the dk_minfo structure with data representing that media.
If there is no media in the drive, the command fails and the host returns an ENXIO error, indicating that it cannot gather the information requested.
If the profile list is not available, the host attempts to identify the media-type based on the available information.
If identification is not possible, the host returns media type DK_UNKNOWN. See NOTES for blocksize usage and capacity information.
DKIOCSMBOOT
The argument is a pointer to struct mboot. Copies the mboot information supplied in the argument to the absolute sector 0 of the device. Prior to copying the information, this ioctl() performs the following checks on the mboot data:
Ensures that the signature field is set to 0xAA55.
Ensures that partitions do not overlap.
On SPARC platforms, determines if the device is a removable media.
DKIOCGETVOLCAP
This ioctl provides information and status of available capabilities. vc_info is a bitmap and the valid flag values are:
DKV_ABR_CAP - Capable of application-based recovery DKV_DMR_CAP - Ability to read specific copy of data when multiple copies exist. For example, in a two way mirror, this ioctl is used to read each side of the mirror.vc_set is a bitmap and the valid flag values are:
DKV_ABR_CAP - This flag is set if ABR has been set on a device that supports ABR functionality. DKV_DMR_CAP - Directed read has been enabled.These capabilities are not required to be persistent across a system reboot and their persistence depends upon the implementation. For example, if the ABR capability for a DRL mirror simply clears the dirty-region list and subsequently stops updating this list, there is no reason for persistence because the VM recovery is a no-op. Conversely, if the ABR capability is applied to a non-DRL mirror to indicate that the VM should not perform a full recovery of the mirror following a system crash, the capability must be persistent so that the VM know whether or not to perform recovery. Return Errors:
EINVAL
Invalid device for this operation.
ENOTSUP
Functionality that is attempted to be set is not supported.
DKIOCSETVOLCAP
This ioctl sets the available capabilities for the device. If a capability flag is not set in vc_set, that capability is cleared. vc_info flags are ignored vc_set valid flags are:
DKV_ABR_CAP - Flag to set application-based recovery. A device can successfully support ABR only if it is capable. DKV_DMR_CAP - Flag to set directed read. int ioctl(int , DKIODMR, vol_directed_rd *);
DKIODMR
This ioctl allows highly available applications to perform round-robin reads from the underlying devices of a replicated device.
vdr_offset - offset at which the read should occur. vdr_nbytes - number of bytes to be read vdr_bytesread - number of bytes successfully read by the kernel. vdr_data - pointer to a user allocated buffer to return the data read vdr_side - side to be read. Initialized to DKV_SIDE_INIT vdr_side_name - The volume name that has been read. Valid vdr_flags are: DKV_DMR_NEXT_SIDE (set by user) DKV_DMR_DONE (return value) DKV_DMR_ERROR (return value) DKV_DMR_SUCCESS(return value) DKV_DMR_SHORT(return value)The calling sequence is as follows: The caller sets the vdr_flags to DK_DMR_NEXT_SIDE and vdr_side to DKV_SIDE_INIT at the start. Subsequent calls should be made without any changes to these values. If they are changed the results of the ioctl are indeterminate. When DKV_SIDE_INIT is set, the call results in the kernel reading from the first side. The kernel updates vdr_side to indicate the side that was read, and vdr_side_name to contain the name of that side. vdr_data contains the data that was read. Therefore to perform a round-robin read all of the valid sides, there is no need for the caller to change the contents of vdr_side. Subsequent ioctl calls result in reads from the next valid side until all valid sides have been read. On success, the kernel sets DKV_DMR_SUCCESS. The following table shows the values of vdr_flags that are returned when an error occurs:
vdr_flags | vdr_side | Notes -------------|-------------------|---------------------------- DKV_DMR_ERROR| DKV_SIDE_INIT | No valid side to read DKV_DMR_DONE | Not Init side | All valid sides read DKV_DMR_SHORT| Any value | Bytes requested cannot be read. vdr_bytesread set to bytes actually read.
Typical code fragment:
enable->vc_set |= DKV_ABR_SET;
retval = ioctl(filedes, DKIOSETVOLCAP, enable);
if (retval != EINVAL || retval != ENOTSUP) {
if (info->vc_set & DKV_DMR_SET) {
dr->vdr_flags |= DKV_DMR_NEXT_SIDE;
dr->vdr_side = DKV_SIDE_INIT;
dr->vdr_nbytes = 1024;
dr->vdr_offset = 0xff00;
do {
rval =ioctl(fildes, DKIODMR, dr);
if (rval != EINVAL) {
/* Process data */
}
} while (rval != EINVAL || dr->vdr_flags &
(DKV_DMR_DONE | DKV_DMR_ERROR | DKV_DMR_SHORT)
}
}
Upon successful completion, the value returned is 0. Otherwise, -1 is returned and errno is set to indicate the error.
The following ioctl() requests set and/or retrieve the current disk controller, partitions, or geometry information on the x86 architecture.
DKIOCG_PHYGEOM
The argument is a pointer to a dk_geom structure (described below). This ioctl() gets the driver's notion of the physical geometry of the disk drive. It is functionally identical to the DKIOCGGEOM ioctl().
DKIOCG_VIRTGEOM
The argument is a pointer to a dk_geom structure (described below). This ioctl() gets the controller's (and hence the driver's) notion of the virtual geometry of the disk drive. Virtual geometry is a view of the disk geometry maintained by the firmware in a host bus adapter or disk controller. If the disk is larger than 8 Gbytes, this ioctl fails because a CHS-based geometry is not relevant or useful for this drive.

unsigned short dkg_read_reinstruct; /* # sectors to skip, reads*/
unsigned short dkg_extra[7]; /* for compatible expansion*/
};
DKIOCADDBAD
This ioctl() forces the driver to re-examine the alternates slice and rebuild the internal bad block map accordingly. It should be used whenever the alternates slice is changed by any method other than the addbadsec(1M) or format(1M) utilities. DKIOCADDBAD can only be used for software remapping on IDE drives; SCSI drives use hardware remapping of alternate sectors.
DKIOCPARTINFO
The argument is a pointer to a part_info structure (described below). This ioctl() gets the driver's notion of the size and extent of the partition or slice indicated by the file descriptor argument.
/*
* Used by applications to get partition or slice information
*/
struct part_info {
daddr_t p_start;
int p_length;
};
DKIOCEXTPARTINFO
The argument is a pointer to an extpart_info structure (described below). This ioctl gets the driver's notion of the size and extent of the partition or slice indicated by the file descriptor argument. On disks larger than 1TB, this ioctl must be used instead of DKIOCPARTINFO.
/*
* Used by applications to get partition or slice information
*/
struct extpart_info {
diskkaddr_t p_start;
diskaddr_t p_length;
};
DKIOCSETEXTPART
This ioctl is used to update the in-memory copy of the logical drive information maintained by the driver. The ioctl takes no arguments. It causes a re-read of the partition information and recreation of minor nodes if required. Prior to updating the data structures, the ioctl ensures that the partitions do not overlap. Device nodes are created only for valid partition entries. If there is any change in the partition offset, size or ID from the previous read, the partition is deemed to have been changed and hence the device nodes are recreated. Any modification to any of the logical partitions results in the recreation of all logical device nodes.

Blocksize information provided in DKIOCGMEDIAINFO is the size (in bytes) of the device's basic unit of operation and can differ from the blocksize that the Solaris operating environment exports to the user. Capacity information provided in the DKIOCGMEDIAINFO are for reference only and you are advised to use the values returned by DKIOCGGEOM or other appropriate ioctl for accessing data using the standard interfaces.
For x86 only: If the DKIOCSMBOOT command is used to modify the Solaris partitions, the VTOC information should also be set appropriately to reflect the changes to partition. Failure to do so leads to unexpected results when the device is closed and reopened fresh at a later time. This is because a default VTOC is assumed by driver when a Solaris partition is changed. The default VTOC persists until the ioctl DKIOCSVTOC is called to modify VTOC or the device is closed and reopened. At that point, the old valid VTOC is read from the disk if it is still available.
