NAME


devmap - validate and translate virtual mapping for memory mapped device

SYNOPSIS


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


int prefixdevmap(dev_t dev, devmap_cookie_t dhp, offset_t off,
size_t len, size_t *maplen, uint_t model);


INTERFACE LEVEL


illumos DDI specific (illumos DDI).

PARAMETERS


dev
Device whose memory is to be mapped.


dhp
An opaque mapping handle that the system uses to describe the
mapping.


off
User offset within the logical device memory at which the
mapping begins.


len
Length (in bytes) of the mapping to be mapped.


maplen
Pointer to length (in bytes) of mapping that has been
validated. maplen is less than or equal to len.


model
The data model type of the current thread.


DESCRIPTION


devmap() is a required entry point for character drivers supporting
memory-mapped devices if the drivers use the devmap framework to set up
the mapping. A memory mapped device has memory that can be mapped into a
process's address space. The mmap(2) system call, when applied to a
character special file, allows this device memory to be mapped into user
space for direct access by the user applications.


As a result of a mmap(2) system call, the system calls the devmap() entry
point during the mapping setup when D_DEVMAP is set in the cb_flag field
of the cb_ops(9S) structure, and any of the following conditions apply:

o ddi_devmap_segmap(9F) is used as the segmap(9E) entry point.

o segmap(9E) entry point is set to NULL.

o mmap(9E) entry point is set to NULL.


Otherwise EINVAL will be returned to mmap(2).


Device drivers should use devmap() to validate the user mappings to the
device, to translate the logical offset, off, to the corresponding
physical offset within the device address space, and to pass the mapping
information to the system for setting up the mapping.


dhp is a device mapping handle that the system uses to describe a mapping
to a memory that is either contiguous in physical address space or in
kernel virtual address space. The system may create multiple mapping
handles in one mmap(2) system call (for example, if the mapping contains
multiple physically discontiguous memory regions).


model returns the C Language Type Model which the current thread expects.
It is set to DDI_MODEL_ILP32 if the current thread expects 32-bit (
ILP32) semantics, or DDI_MODEL_LP64 if the current thread expects 64-bit
( LP64) semantics. model is used in combination with
ddi_model_convert_from(9F) to determine whether there is a data model
mismatch between the current thread and the device driver. The device
driver might have to adjust the shape of data structures before exporting
them to a user thread which supports a different data model.


devmap() should return EINVAL if the logical offset, off, is out of the
range of memory exported by the device to user space. If off + len
exceeds the range of the contiguous memory, devmap() should return the
length from off to the end of the contiguous memory region. The system
will repeatedly call devmap() until the original mapping length is
satisfied. The driver sets *maplen to the validated length which must be
either less than or equal to len.


The devmap() entry point must initialize the mapping parameters before
passing them to the system through either devmap_devmem_setup(9F) (if the
memory being mapped is device memory) or devmap_umem_setup(9F) (if the
memory being mapped is kernel memory). The devmap() entry point
initializes the mapping parameters by mapping the control callback
structure (see devmap_callback_ctl(9S)), the device access attributes,
mapping length, maximum protection possible for the mapping, and optional
mapping flags. See devmap_devmem_setup(9F) and devmap_umem_setup(9F) for
further information on initializing the mapping parameters.


The system will copy the driver's devmap_callback_ctl(9S) data into its
private memory so the drivers do not need to keep the data structure
after the return from either devmap_devmem_setup(9F) or
devmap_umem_setup(9F).


For device mappings, the system establishes the mapping to the physical
address that corresponds to off by passing the register number and the
offset within the register address space to devmap_devmem_setup(9F).


For kernel memory mapping, the system selects a user virtual address that
is aligned with the kernel address being mapped for cache coherence.

RETURN VALUES


0
Successful completion.


Non-zero
An error occurred.


EXAMPLES


Example 1: Implementing the devmap() Entry Point




The following is an example of the implementation for the devmap() entry
point. For mapping device memory, devmap() calls devmap_devmem_setup(9F)
with the register number, rnumber, and the offset within the register,
roff. For mapping kernel memory, the driver must first allocate the
kernel memory using ddi_umem_alloc(9F). For example, ddi_umem_alloc(9F)
can be called in the attach(9E) routine. The resulting kernel memory
cookie is stored in the driver soft state structure, which is accessible
from the devmap() entry point. See ddi_soft_state(9F). devmap() passes
the cookie obtained from ddi_umem_alloc(9F) and the offset within the
allocated kernel memory to devmap_umem_setup(9F). The corresponding
ddi_umem_free(9F) can be made in the detach(9E) routine to free up the
kernel memory.
