Manual page for ddi_io_putb(9F)

ddi_io_putb, ddi_io_putw, ddi_io_putl - write data to the mapped device register in I/O space

SYNOPSIS

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

void ddi_io_putb(ddi_acc_handle_t handle, int dev_port, uchar_t value);

void ddi_io_putw(ddi_acc_handle_t handle, int dev_port, ushort_t value);

void ddi_io_putl(ddi_acc_handle_t handle, int dev_port, ulong_t value);

INTERFACE LEVEL

Solaris DDI specific (Solaris DDI).

ARGUMENTS

handle
The data access handle returned from setup calls, such as ddi_regs_map_setup.9f
dev_port
The device port.
value
The data to be written to the device.

DESCRIPTION

These routines generate a write of various sizes to the device port, dev_port, in I/O space. The ddi_io_putb(), ddi_io_putw(), and ddi_io_putl() functions write 8 bits, 16 bits, and 32 bits of data, respectively, to the device port, dev_port.

Each individual datum will automatically be translated to maintain a consistent view between the host and the device based on the encoded information in the data access handle. The translation may involve byte-swapping if the host and the device have incompatible endian characteristics.

CONTEXT

These functions can be called from user, kernel, or interrupt context.

SEE ALSO

isa.4 ddi_io_getb.9f ddi_io_rep_getb.9f ddi_io_rep_putb.9f ddi_regs_map_setup.9f ddi_device_acc_attr.9s

NOTES

For drivers using these functions, it may not be easy to maintain a single source to support devices with multiple bus versions. For example, devices may offer I/O space in ISA bus (see isa.4 but memory space only in PCI local bus. This is especially true in instruction set architectures such as x86 where accesses to the memory and I/O space are different.
