LSMD(1) libStorageMgmt plug-in daemon LSMD(1)NAME
Daemon - lsmd
DESCRIPTION
libStorageMgmt plug-in daemon. Plug-ins execute in their own process space for fault isolation and to accommodate different plug-in
licensing requirements. Runs as an unprivileged user.
OPTIONS --plugindir = The directory where the plugins are located
--socketdir = The directory for IPC sockets
-v = Verbose logging
-d = New style daemon (systemd) non-forking
BUGS
Please report bugs to <libstoragemgmt-devel@lists.sourceforge.net>

picld_plugin_register - register plug-in with the daemon
SYNOPSIS
cc [ flag... ] file... -lpicltree [ library... ]
#include <picltree.h>
int picld_plugin_register(picld_plugin_reg_t *regp);
DESCRIPTION
The picld_plugin_register() function is the function used by a plug-in module to register itself with the PICL daemon upon initialization.
The plug-in provides its name and the entry points of the initialization and cleanup routines in the regp argument.
typedef struct {
int version; /* PICLD_PLUGIN_VERSION */
int critical; /* is plug-in critical? */
char *name; /* name of the plugin module */
void (*plugin_init)(void); /* init/reinit function */
void (*plugin_fini)(void); /* fini/cleanup function */
} picld_plugin_reg_t;
The plug-in module also specifies whether it is a critical module for the proper system operation. The critical field in the registration
information is set to PICLD_PLUGIN_NON_CRITICAL by plug-in modules that are not critical to system operation, and is set to PICLD_PLUG-
IN_CRITICAL by plug-in modules that are critical to the system operation. An environment control plug-in module is an example for a
PICLD_PLUGIN_CRITICAL type of plug-in module.
The PICL daemon saves the information passed during registration in regp in the order in which the plug-ins registered.
Upon initialization, the PICL daemon invokes the plugin_init() routine of each of the registered plug-in modules in the order in which they
registered. In their plugin_init() routines, the plug-in modules collect the platform configuration data and add it to the PICL tree using
PICLTREE interfaces(3PICLTREE).
On reinitialization, the PICL daemon invokes the plugin_fini() routines of the registered plug-in modules in the reverse order of registra-
tion. Then, the plugin_init() entry points are invoked again in the order in which the plug-ins registered.
RETURN VALUES
Upon successful completion, 0 is returned. On failure, a negative value is returned.
ERRORS
PICL_NOTSUPPORTED Version not supported
PICL_FAILURE General system failure
