mmap - check virtual mapping for memory mapped device
#include <sys/types.h> #include <sys/cred.h> #include <sys/mman.h> #include <sys/ddi.h> int prefixmmap(dev_t dev, off_t off, int prot);
This interface is obsolete. devmap(9E) should be used instead.
dev
off
prot
PROT_READ
PROT_WRITE
PROT_EXEC
PROT_USER
PROT_ALL
Future releases of Solaris will provide this function for binary and source compatibility. However, for increased functionality, use devmap(9E) instead. See devmap(9E) for details.
The mmap() entry point is a required entry point for character drivers supporting memory-mapped devices. A memory mapped device has memory that can be mapped into a process's address space. The mmap(2) system call, when applied to a character special file, allows this device memory to be mapped into user space for direct access by the user application.
The mmap() entry point is called as a result of an mmap(2) system call, and also as a result of a page fault. mmap() is called to translate the offset off in device memory to the corresponding physical page frame number.
The mmap() entry point checks if the offset off is within the range of pages exported by the device. For example, a device that has 512 bytes of memory that can be mapped into user space should not support offsets greater than 512. If the offset does not exist, then -1 is returned. If the offset does exist, mmap() returns the value returned by hat_getkpfnum(9F) for the physical page in device memory containing the offset off.
hat_getkpfnum(9F) accepts a kernel virtual address as an argument. A kernel virtual address can be obtained by calling ddi_regs_map_setup(9F) in the driver's attach(9E) routine. The corresponding ddi_regs_map_free(9F) call can be made in the driver's detach(9E) routine. Refer to the example below mmap Entry Point for more information.
mmap() should only be supported for memory-mapped devices. See segmap(9E) for further information on memory-mapped device drivers.
If a device driver shares data structures with the application, for example through exported kernel memory, and the driver gets recompiled for a 64-bit kernel but the application remains 32-bit, the binary layout of any data structures will be incompatible if they contain longs or pointers. The driver needs to know whether there is a model mismatch between the current thread and the kernel and take necessary action. ddi_mmap_get_model(9F) can be use to get the C Language Type Model which the current thread expects. In combination with ddi_model_convert_from(9F) the driver can determine whether there is a data model mismatch between the current thread and the device driver. The device driver might have to adjust the shape of data structures before exporting them to a user thread which supports a different data model. See ddi_mmap_get_model(9F) for an example.
If the protection and offset are valid for the device, the driver should return the value returned by hat_getkpfnum(9F), for the page at offset off in the device's memory. If not, -1 should be returned.
Example 1 mmap() Entry Point
The following is an example of the mmap() entry point. If offset off is valid, hat_getkpfnum(9F) is called to obtain the page frame number corresponding to this offset in the device's memory. In this example, xsp->regp->csr is a kernel virtual address which maps to device memory. ddi_regs_map_setup(9F) can be used to obtain this address. For example, ddi_regs_map_setup(9F) can be called in the driver's attach(9E) routine. The resulting kernel virtual address is stored in the xxstate structure, which is accessible from the driver's mmap() entry point. See ddi_soft_state(9F). The corresponding ddi_regs_map_free(9F) call can be made in the driver's detach(9E) routine.
struct reg { uint8_t csr; uint8_t data; }; struct xxstate { ... struct reg *regp ... }; struct xxstate *xsp; ... static int xxmmap(dev_t dev, off_t off, int prot) { int instance; struct xxstate *xsp; /* No write access */ if (prot & PROT_WRITE) return (-1); instance = getminor(dev); xsp = ddi_get_soft_state(statep, instance); if (xsp == NULL) return (-1); /* check for a valid offset */ if ( off is invalid ) return (-1); return (hat_getkpfnum (xsp->regp->csr + off)); }
See attributes(5) for a description of the following attributes:

For some devices, mapping device memory in the driver's attach(9E) routine and unmapping device memory in the driver's detach(9E) routine is a sizeable drain on system resources. This is especially true for devices with a large amount of physical address space.
One alternative is to create a mapping for only the first page of device memory in attach(9E). If the device memory is contiguous, a kernel page frame number may be obtained by calling hat_getkpfnum(9F) with the kernel virtual address of the first page of device memory and adding the desired page offset to the result. The page offset may be obtained by converting the byte offset off to pages. See ddi_btop(9F).
Another alternative is to call ddi_regs_map_setup(9F) and ddi_regs_map_free(9F) in mmap(). These function calls would bracket the call to hat_getkpfnum(9F).
However, note that the above alternatives may not work in all cases. The existence of intermediate nexus devices with memory management unit translation resources that are not locked down may cause unexpected and undefined behavior.
