- read contract status information from a status object

Synopsis

cc [ flag… ] file… -D_LARGEFILE64_SOURCE -lcontract [ library… ]
#include <libcontract.h>
#include <sys/contract/device.h>

int ct_dev_status_get_dev_state(ct_stathdl_t stathdl,
     uint_t *statep);

int ct_dev_status_get_aset(ct_stathdl_t stathdl,
     uint_t *asetp);

int ct_dev_status_get_minor(ct_stathdl_t stathdl, char *buf,
     size_t *buflenp);

int ct_dev_status_get_noneg(ct_stathdl_t stathdl,
     uint_t *nonegp);

Parameters

asetp

a pointer to a uint_t variable for receiving the acceptable state set (such as A-set) for the contract

buf

a buffer for receiving the devfs path of a minor in a contract

buflenp

a pointer to a variable of type size_t for passing the size of the buffer buf. If the buffer is too small (< PATH_MAX), the minimum size of the buffer needed (PATH_MAX) is passed back to the caller with this argument.

nonegp

a pointer to a uint_t variable for receiving the setting of the “noneg” term

stathdl

a status object returned by ct_status_read(3CONTRACT)

statep

a pointer to a uint_t variable for receiving the current state of the device which is the subject of the contract

Description

These functions read contract status information from a status object stathdl returned by ct_status_read(). The detail level in the call to ct_status_read() needs to be at least CTD_FIXED for the following calls to be successful. The one exception is ct_dev_status_get_minor(), which requires a detail level of CTD_ALL.

The ct_dev_status_get_dev_state() function returns the current state of the device which is the subject of the contract. This can be one of the following:

CT_DEV_EV_ONLINE

The device is online and functioning normally.

CT_DEV_EV_DEGRADED

The device is online but degraded.

CT_DEV_EV_OFFLINE

The device is offline and not configured.

The ct_dev_status_get_aset() function returns the A-set of the contract. This can be the bitset of one or more of the following states: CT_DEV_EV_ONLINE, CT_DEV_EV_DEGRADED, or CT_DEV_EV_OFFLINE.

The ct_dev_status_get_minor() function reads the devfs path of the minor participating in the contract. The devfs path returned does not include the /devices prefix. If the buffer passed in by the caller is too small (< PATH_MAX), the minimum size of the buffer required ( PATH_MAX) is returned to the caller via the buflenp argument.

The ct_dev_status_get_noneg() function returns the “noneg” setting for the contract. A value of 1 is returned in the nonegp argument if NONEG is set, else 0 is returned.

Return Values

Upon successful completion, these functions return 0. Otherwise, they return a non-zero error value.

Errors

The ct_dev_status_get_minor() function will fail if:

EOVERFLOW

The buffer size is too small to hold the result.

The ct_dev_status_get_dev_state(), ct_dev_status_get_aset(), ct_dev_status_get_minor() and ct_dev_status_get_noneg() functions will fail if:

EINVAL

An invalid argument was specified.

ENOENT

The requested data is not present in the status object.
