miocpullup(9F)						   Kernel Functions for Drivers 					    miocpullup(9F)

NAME

       miocpullup - Prepare the payload of an M_IOCTL message for access

SYNOPSIS

       #include <sys/stream.h>
       #include <sys/strsun.h>

       int miocpullup(mblk_t *mp, size_t size);

INTERFACE LEVEL

       Solaris DDI specific (Solaris DDI).

PARAMETERS

       mp	       M_IOCTL message.

       size	       Number of bytes to prepare.

DESCRIPTION

       The  miocpullup()  function  prepares the payload of the specified M_IOCTL message for access by ensuring that it consists of at least size
       bytes of data.

       If the M_IOCTL message is transparent, or its total payload is less than size bytes, an error is returned.  Otherwise, the payload is  con-
       catenated  as  necessary  to  provide  contiguous  access  to at least size bytes of data. As a special case, if size is zero, miocpullup()
       returns successfully, even if no payload exists.

RETURN VALUES

       Zero is returned on success. Otherwise an errno value is returned indicating the problem.

CONTEXT

       This function can be called from user, kernel or interrupt context.

mcopyout(9F)						   Kernel Functions for Drivers 					      mcopyout(9F)

NAME

       mcopyout - Convert an M_IOCTL or M_IOCDATA message to an M_COPYOUT

SYNOPSIS

       #include <sys/stream.h>
       #include <sys/strsun.h>

       void mcopyout(mblk_t *mp, void *private, size_t size, void *useraddr,
	     mblk_t *dp);

INTERFACE LEVEL

       Solaris DDI specific (Solaris DDI).

PARAMETERS

       mp	   M_IOCTL or M_IOCDATA message.

       private	   Value to set the cq_private field of the copyreq(9S) to.

       size	   Value to set the cq_size field of the copyreq(9S) to.

       useraddr    Optionally, the value to set the cq_addr field of the copyreq(9S) to.

       dp	   Optionally, the payload to copy out.

DESCRIPTION

       The mcopyout() function converts an M_IOCTL or M_IOCDATA message into an M_COPYOUT message using the supplied arguments.

       To  convert  the  message,  mcopyout() changes the message type to M_COPYOUT, and its payload from a iocblk(9S) to a copyreq(9S). Since the
       iocblk(9S) and copyreq(9S) are designed to overlay one another, the only fields which must be updated are cq_private, cq_size, and cq_addr,
       which  are  set to the supplied values. If useraddr is passed as NULL, the M_IOCTL must be transparent and cq_addr is assigned the pointer-
       sized quantity found at mp->b_cont->b_rptr.

       If dp is not NULL, any trailing message blocks associated with mp are freed, mp->b_cont is reset to dp and dp->b_wptr is set to	dp->b_rptr
       + size. Otherwise, any trailing message blocks are unaffected.

RETURN VALUES

       None.

CONTEXT

       This function can be called from user, kernel or interrupt context.
