CCW_DEVICE_START_KEY(9) The ccw bus CCW_DEVICE_START_KEY(9)
NAME
ccw_device_start_key - start a s390 channel program with key
SYNOPSIS
int ccw_device_start_key(struct ccw_device * cdev, struct ccw1 * cpa, unsigned long intparm, __u8 lpm, __u8 key, unsigned long flags);
ARGUMENTS
cdev
target ccw device
cpa
logical start address of channel program
intparm
user specific interruption parameter; will be presented back to cdev's interrupt handler. Allows a device driver to associate the
interrupt with a particular I/O request.
lpm
defines the channel path to be used for a specific I/O request. A value of 0 will make cio use the opm.
key
storage key to be used for the I/O
flags
additional flags; defines the action to be performed for I/O processing.
DESCRIPTION
Start a S/390 channel program. When the interrupt arrives, the IRQ handler is called, either immediately, delayed (dev-end missing, or
sense required) or never (no IRQ handler registered).
RETURNS
0, if the operation was successful; -EBUSY, if the device is busy, or status pending; -EACCES, if no path specified in lpm is operational;
-ENODEV, if the device is not operational.
CONTEXT
Interrupts disabled, ccw device lock held
