NAME
unregister_callback - General: Deregisters a configuration callback routine SYNOPSIS
int unregister_callback( void (*function) (), int point, int order, ulong argument ); ARGUMENTS
Specifies the name of the routine that you want to deregister. You must have previously registered this callback routine by calling regis- ter_callback. Specifies the execution point at which the kernel calls the callback routine previously registered by calling register_call- back. The execution point you pass to this argument must match the value you passed to the point argument in the call to register_callback. Specifies the order value that you specified in a previous call to register_callback. Specifies an argument that you want the kernel to pass to the callback routine that you previously registered by calling register_callback. The argument you pass to this argument must match the value you passed to argument in the call to register_callback. You would pass the integer constant 0L if you passed this in the previ- ous call to register_callback to indicate there is no argument. DESCRIPTION
The unregister_callback routine deregisters a kernel module's configuration callback routine. The kernel module previously registered its routine or routines by calling the register_callback routine. The values you pass to unregister_callback must be the same ones you previ- ously passed to register_callback to deregister a specific routine. Kernel modules call unregister_callback to deregister the callback rou- tine when it is no longer needed. A kernel module typically calls unregister_callback when it encounters a fatal error during static or dynamic configuration. The cfgmgr framework executes callback routines scheduled to run after single-user mode each time the system goes from multiuser mode to single-user mode and back to multiuser mode. You should unregister any callback routines if you do not want this to occur. NOTES
The kernel maintains an internal callback list that stores the values you pass to the register_callback routine. These callbacks remain registered until the user removes them. The unregister_callback routine searches through the callback list for the specified callback routine, the specified point, the specified order, and the specified argument and removes that routine from the list. RETURN VALUES
Upon successful completion, the unregister_callback routine returns the value ESUCCESS. Otherwise, unregister_callback returns the following error constant, defined in /usr/sys/include/sys/errno.h: The value you passed to the point argument is outside the minimum and maximum range. The callback you specified to be removed does not exist in the callback list. The callback you specified to be removed does not exist in the callback list. FILES

NAME
FtpOptions - Set connection options. SYNOPSIS
#include <ftplib.h> int FtpOptions(int opt, long val, netbuf *nControl); PARAMETERS
opt Specifies the option to change. Valid options are FTPLIB_CONNMODE, FTPLIB_CALLBACK, FTPLIB_IDLETIME, FTPLIB_CALLBACKARG, and FTPLIB_CALLBACKBYTES. val Specifies the new value for the option. The value may need to by cast to a long. nControl A handle returned by FtpConnect()or FtpAccess(). DESCRIPTION
FtpOptions() changes the options for a connection handle. A data connection inherits the options assigned to the control connection it is created from. Callbacks are only called on file data connections. The following options and values are recognized.OptionValueFTPLIB_CONNMODE Specifies the connection mode. Either FTPLIB_PASSIVE or FTPLIB_PORT.FTPLIB_CALLBACK Specifies the address of a user callback routine.FTPLIB_IDLETIME Specifies the socket idle time in milliseconds that triggers calling the user's callback routine.FTPLIB_CALLBACKARG Specifies an argument to pass to the user's callback rou- tine.FTPLIB_CALLBACKBYTES Specifies the number of bytes to transfer between calls to the user's callback routine. The connection mode tells ftplib if it should use PASV or PORT to establish data connections. The default is specified as a build option. The user's callback routine is specified as:.sp typedef int (*FtpCallback)(netbuf *nControl, int xfered, void *arg); nControlis the data connection in use. xferedspecifies how many bytes of data have been transferred on the connec- tion.argis the value specified with option FTPLIB_CALLBACKARG. The user can request to be called back on either of two events. If the user wishes to be called when the data socket is idle for some period of time, use FTPLIB_IDLETIME and pass the time in mil- liseconds. If the user wishes to be called when a certain amount of data has been transferred, use FTPLIB_CALLBACKBYTES and pass the minimum number of bytes to transfer between callbacks. When using this option, ftplib keeps track of the number of bytes transferred and calls the user once the specified number of bytes or more has been transferred. It then resets the count to 0 and starts again. If the user wishes to continue the transfer, the callback routine should return true (non-zero). It can abort the transfer by return zero. RETURN VALUE
Returns 1 if a valid option was specified and the value is legal. Otherwise, returns 0. FTPlib 24 June 1998 FtpOptions(3)
