DEVICE_GET_IVARS(9)					   BSD Kernel Developer's Manual				       DEVICE_GET_IVARS(9)

NAME
device_get_ivars, device_set_ivars -- access bus private variables SYNOPSIS
#include <sys/param.h> #include <sys/bus.h> void * device_get_ivars(device_t dev); void device_set_ivars(device_t dev, void *ivar); DESCRIPTION
The device_get_ivars() function returns the bus-specific instance variables of a device. The device_set_ivars() function sets the bus-specific instance variables of a device. Typically, only bus drivers will use these functions. The kernel assumes that the bus driver will manage this memory, and no automatic mem- ory allocation or deallocation happens. Client drivers should access ivars through the BUS_READ_IVAR(9) interface instead. SEE ALSO
