WR 9F "16 Jan 2006" "SunOS 5.11" "Kernel Functions for Drivers"
NAME
WR, wr - get pointer to the write queue for this module or driver
SYNOPSIS

#include <sys/stream.h>
#include <sys/ddi.h>



queue_t *WR(queue_t *q);
INTERFACE LEVEL

Architecture independent level 1 (DDI/DKI).

PARAMETERS

q

Pointer to the read queue whose write queue is to be returned.

DESCRIPTION

The WR() function accepts a read queue pointer as an argument and returns a pointer to the write queue of the same module.

CAUTION: Make sure the argument to this function is a pointer to a read queue. WR() will not check for queue type, and a system panic could result if the pointer is not to a read queue.

RETURN VALUES

The pointer to the write queue.

CONTEXT

The WR() function can be called from user, interrupt, or kernel context.

EXAMPLES

Example 1 Using WR()

In a STREAMS close(9E) routine, the driver or module is passed a pointer to the read queue. These usually are set to the address of the module-specific data structure for the minor device.

 
1 xxxclose(q, flag)
2 queue_t *q;
3 int flag;
4 {
5 q->q_ptr = NULL;
6 WR(q)->q_ptr = NULL;
 . . .
7 }
