ddi_get8(9F) Kernel Functions for Drivers ddi_get8(9F)
NAME
ddi_get8, ddi_get16, ddi_get32, ddi_get64, ddi_getb, ddi_getw, ddi_getl, ddi_getll - read data from the mapped memory address, device reg-
ister or allocated DMA memory address
SYNOPSIS
#include <sys/ddi.h>
#include <sys/sunddi.h>
uint8_t ddi_get8(ddi_acc_handle_t handle, uint8_t *dev_addr);
uint16_t ddi_get16(ddi_acc_handle_t handle, uint16_t *dev_addr);
uint32_t ddi_get32(ddi_acc_handle_t handle, uint32_t *dev_addr);
uint64_t ddi_get64(ddi_acc_handle_t handle, uint64_t *dev_addr);
INTERFACE LEVEL
Solaris DDI specific (Solaris DDI). The ddi_getb(), ddi_getl(), ddi_getll(), and ddi_getw() functions are obsolete. The ddi_get8() function
replaces ddi_getb(). The ddi_get32() function replaces ddi_getl(). The ddi_get64() function replaces ddi_getll(). The ddi_get16() function
replaces ddi_getw().
PARAMETERS
handle The data access handle returned from setup calls, such as ddi_regs_map_setup(9F).
dev_addr Base device address.
DESCRIPTION
The ddi_get8(), ddi_get16(), ddi_get32(), and ddi_get64() functions read 8 bits, 16 bits, 32 bits and 64 bits of data, respectively, from
the device address, dev_addr.
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 char-
acteristics.
For certain bus types, you can call these DDI functions from a high-interrupt context. These types include ISA and SBus buses. See sys-
bus(4), isa(4), and sbus(4) for details. For the PCI bus, you can, under certain conditions, call these DDI functions from a high-interrupt
context. See pci(4).
RETURN VALUES
These functions return the value read from the mapped address.
CONTEXT
These functions can be called from user, kernel, or interrupt context.
