CONFIG_INTRHOOK(9) | Kernel Developer's Manual | CONFIG_INTRHOOK(9) |
NAME¶
config_intrhook
—
SYNOPSIS¶
#include <sys/kernel.h>
int
config_intrhook_establish
(struct
intr_config_hook *hook);
void
config_intrhook_disestablish
(struct
intr_config_hook *hook);
DESCRIPTION¶
Theconfig_intrhook_establish
() function schedules a
function to be run after interrupts have been enabled, but before root is
mounted. If the system has already passed this point in its initialization,
the function is called immediately.
The config_intrhook_disestablish
()
function removes the entry from the hook queue.
Before root is mounted, all the previously established hooks are
run. The boot process is then stalled until all handlers remove their hook
from the hook queue with
config_intrhook_disestablish
(). The boot process
then proceeds to attempt to mount the root file system. Any driver that can
potentially provide devices they wish to be mounted as root must use either
this hook, or probe all these devices in the initial probe. Since interrupts
are disabled during the probe process, many drivers need a method to probe
for devices with interrupts enabled.
The requests are made with the intr_config_hook structure. This structure is defined as follows:
struct intr_config_hook { TAILQ_ENTRY(intr_config_hook) ich_links;/* Private */ void (*ich_func)(void *arg); /* function to call */ void *ich_arg; /* Argument to call */ };
Storage for the intr_config_hook structure must be provided by the driver. It must be stable from just before the hook is established until after the hook is disestablished.
Specifically, hooks are run at
SI_SUB_INT_CONFIG_HOOKS
(), which is immediately
after the scheduler is started, and just before the root file system device
is discovered.
RETURN VALUES¶
A zero return value means the hook was successfully added to the queue (with either deferred or immediate execution). A non-zero return value means the hook could not be added to the queue because it was already on the queue.SEE ALSO¶
DEVICE_ATTACH(9)HISTORY¶
These functions were introduced in FreeBSD 3.0 with the CAM subsystem, but are available for any driver to use.AUTHORS¶
