ASTRIBANK_IS_STARTING(8)												  ASTRIBANK_IS_STARTING(8)

NAME

       astribank_is_starting - Mark / check is a Xorcom Astribank (xpp) is starting

SYNOPSIS

       astribank_is_starting [-d] [-v] [-t timeout] <-a|-r|-w>

       astribank_is_starting [-d] [-v]

       astribank_is_starting -h

DESCRIPTION

       astribank_is_starting is an internal tool used by various xpp scripts to mark that there may be an Astribank device currently initializing,
       and to check for that mark.

       Technically the mark is a SysV semaphore.

OPTIONS

       -a
	      Add.  Set the mark. Should return 0 unless there's an error.

       -r
	      Remove.  Reset the mark. Should return 0 unless there's an error.

       -ttimeout
	      Timeout.	Set the timeout value for the -w option. Default is 60 seconds.

       -w
	      Wait.  Wait for mark to be reset. Should return 0 unless there's an error.

       Without -a or -r: return 0 if the mark has been set, or a non-zero value otherwise.

       -d
	      Print debug information to stderr.

       -v
	      Verbose execution.

       -h
	      Displays usage message.

FILES

       /proc/sysvipc/sem
	      If set, the astribank should appear there with the ID 11211168 (0xAB11A0).  Naturally the ID (or rather, the usage of a semaphore in
	      the first place) is an implementation detail that may change.

NOTES

       astribank_is_starting  is used to mark the fact that an Astribank may be currently reenumerating (technically: distonnecting and connecting
       as a new USB device) after loading the firmware. Thus the script that loads the firmware (/usr/share/dahdi/xpp_fxloader) uses this  utility
       to set the mark.

       The mark is reset by /usr/share/dahdi/waitfor_xpds , which is typically run by the DAHDI init script and waits for all Astribanks to finish
       loading.

       Q: Why do you use a semaphore?

       A: because, unlike the filesystem, it is writable at any given time.

BUGS

       Option ordering matter. The -v and -d options should preceed the actions (-a, -r and -w).  The  -ttimeout  option  should  preceed  the	-w
       option.
