NAME
usb_pipe_set_private, usb_pipe_get_private - USB user-defined pipe data-field facility SYNOPSIS
#include <sys/usb/usba.h> int usb_pipe_set_private(usb_pipe_handle_t pipe_handle, usb_opaque_t data); usb_opaque_t usb_pipe_get_private (usb_pipe_handle_t pipe_handle); INTERFACE LEVEL
Solaris DDI specific (Solaris DDI) PARAMETERS
For usb_pipe_set_private(): pipe_handle Pipe handle into which user-defined data is placed. data Data to store in the pipe handle. For usb_pipe_get_private(): pipe_handle Pipe handle from which user-defined data is retrieved. DESCRIPTION
The usb_set_driver_private() function initializes the user-private data field of the pipe referred to by pipe_handle, using data. The user-private data field is used to store any data the client desires and is not used in any way by the USBA or OS framework. Client driv- ers often store their soft-state here for convenient retrieval by their callback handlers. The usb_get_driver_private() function retrieves the user-private data stored via usb_set_driver_private(), from the pipe referred to by pipe_handle. RETURN VALUES
For usb_pipe_set_private(): USB_SUCCESS Private data has been successfully stored in pipe handle. USB_INVALID_PIPE pipe_handle argument is NULL or invalid. Pipe is closing or closed. USB_INVALID_PERM The pipe_handle argument refers to the default control pipe. For usb_pipe_get_private(): On success: usb_opaque_t pointer to data being retrieved. On failure: NULL. Fails if pipe handle is NULL or invalid. Fails if pipe handle is to a pipe which is closing or closed. CONTEXT
May be called from user, kernel or interrupt context. EXAMPLES
usb_pipe_handle_t pipe; /* Some driver defined datatype. */ xxx_data_t *data = kmem_zalloc(...); usb_pipe_set_private(pipe, data); ---- xxx_data_t *xxx_data_ptr = (xxx_data_t *)usb_pipe_get_private(pipe); ATTRIBUTES
