csx_AccessConfigurationRegister(9F) Kernel Functions for Drivers csx_AccessConfigurationRegister(9F)
NAME
csx_AccessConfigurationRegister - read or write a PC Card Configuration Register
SYNOPSIS
#include <sys/pccard.h>
int32_t csx_AccessConfigurationRegister(client_handle_t ch,
access_config_reg_t *acr);
INTERFACE LEVEL
Solaris DDI Specific (Solaris DDI)
PARAMETERS
ch Client handle returned from csx_RegisterClient(9F).
acr Pointer to an access_config_reg_t structure.
DESCRIPTION
This function allows a client to read or write a PCCard Configuration Register.
STRUCTURE MEMBERS
The structure members of access_config_reg_t are:
uint32_t Socket; /* socket number*/
uint32_t Action; /* register access operation*/
uint32_t Offset; /* config register offset*/
uint32_t Value; /* value read or written*/
The fields are defined as follows:
Socket Not used in Solaris, but for portability with other Card Services implementations, it should be set to the logical socket number.
Action May be set to CONFIG_REG_READ or CONFIG_REG_WRITE. All other values in the Action field are reserved for future use. If the
Action field is set to CONFIG_REG_WRITE, the Value field is written to the specified configuration register. Card Services does
not read the configuration register after a write operation. For that reason, the Value field is only updated by a CON-
FIG_REG_READ request.
Offset Specifies the byte offset for the desired configuration register from the PC Card configuration register base specified in
csx_RequestConfiguration(9F).
Value Contains the value read from the PC Card Configuration Register for a read operation. For a write operation, the Value field con-
tains the value to write to the configuration register. As noted above, on return from a write request, the Value field is the
value written to the PC Card and not any changed value that may have resulted from the write request (that is, no read after
write is performed).
A client must be very careful when writing to the COR (Configuration Option Register) at offset 0. This has the potential to change the
type of interrupt request generated by the PC Card or place the card in the reset state. Either request may have undefined results. The
client should read the register to determine the appropriate setting for the interrupt mode (Bit 6) before writing to the register.
If a client wants to reset a PCCard, the csx_ResetFunction(9F) function should be used. Unlike csx_AccessConfigurationRegister(), the
csx_ResetFunction(9F) function generates a series of event notifications to all clients using the PC Card, so they can re-establish the
appropriate card state after the reset operation is complete.
RETURN VALUES
CS_SUCCESS Successful operation.
CS_BAD_ARGS Specified arguments are invalid. Client specifies an Offset that is out of range or neither CONFIG_REG_READ or
CONFIG_REG_WRITE is set.
CS_UNSUPPORTED_MODE Client has not called csx_RequestConfiguration(9F) before calling this function.
CS_BAD_HANDLE Client handle is invalid.
CS_NO_CARD No PC card in socket.
CS_UNSUPPORTED_FUNCTION No PCMCIA hardware installed.
CONTEXT
This function may be called from user or kernel context.
