Operating Systems HP-UX pstat_getdisk() call doesn’t work properly in HPUX 11.31 (11i V3) Post 302140662 by sandiworld on Monday 15th of October 2007 08:51:09 AM

pstat_getdisk() call doesn’t work properly in HPUX 11.31 (11i V3)

As per the man page, pstat_getdisk() call returns the number of instances, which could be 0 upon successful completion, otherwise a value of -1 is returned.

Please have a look at this sample program ->

#include <stdio.h>
#include <sys/pstat.h>

int main()
{
int j = 0, ret;
struct pst_diskinfo sDiskData;

while(1)
{
ret = pstat_getdisk(&sDiskData, sizeof(sDiskData), 1, j);
if(ret<0)
{
printf("\nReturned with code %d \n",ret);
break;
}
printf("\n Ret Code : %d , Device Name : %s%d",ret,sDiskData.psd_drv_name.psd_name,sDiskData.psd_instance);
j++;
}
return 0;
}

On HP-UX 11.11 and 11.23, the call pstat_getdisk() returns series of ‘1’s then single ‘0’ and finally ‘-1’ and the program terminates successfully.

On HP-UX 11.31 the call pstat_getdisk() returns series of ‘1’s followed by series of ‘0’s and never returns ‘-1’, so the same program never terminates.

The workaround would be to replace the condition
if(ret<0)
with
if(ret==0)

But, will this call always returns ‘1’s followed by ‘0’s or there can be a case in which the call will return ‘0’ in between?

In another way, can we get an invalid index in between or all the valid disks are in sequence only?

PAPI_set_domain(3)						       PAPI							PAPI_set_domain(3)

NAME
PAPI_set_domain - Set the default counting domain for new event sets bound to the cpu component. SYNOPSIS
Detailed Description @par C Prototype: int PAPI_set_domain( int domain ); @param domain one of the following constants as defined in the papi.h header file @arg PAPI_DOM_USER User context counted @arg PAPI_DOM_KERNEL Kernel/OS context counted @arg PAPI_DOM_OTHER Exception/transient mode counted @arg PAPI_DOM_SUPERVISOR Supervisor/hypervisor context counted @arg PAPI_DOM_ALL All above contexts counted @arg PAPI_DOM_MIN The smallest available context @arg PAPI_DOM_MAX The largest available context Return values: PAPI_OK PAPI_EINVAL One or more of the arguments is invalid. PAPI_set_domain sets the default counting domain for all new event sets created by PAPI_create_eventset in all threads. This call implicitly sets the domain for the cpu component (component 0) and is included to preserve backward compatibility. Example: int ret; // Initialize the library ret = PAPI_library_init(PAPI_VER_CURRENT); if (ret > 0 && ret != PAPI_VER_CURRENT) { fprintf(stderr,"PAPI library version mismatch!0); exit(1); } if (ret < 0) handle_error(ret); // Set the default domain for the cpu component ret = PAPI_set_domain(PAPI_DOM_KERNEL); if (ret != PAPI_OK) handle_error(ret); ret = PAPI_create_eventset(&EventSet); if (ret != PAPI_OK) handle_error(ret); * See Also: PAPI_set_cmp_domain PAPI_set_granularity PAPI_set_opt PAPI_get_opt Author Generated automatically by Doxygen for PAPI from the source code. Version 5.2.0.0 Tue Jun 17 2014 PAPI_set_domain(3)
