hdio 7I "13 Aug 2002" "SunOS 5.11" "Ioctl Requests"
NAME
hdio - SMD and IPI disk control operations
SYNOPSIS

#include <sys/hdio.h> 
DESCRIPTION

Note -

The SMC and IPI drivers have been discontinued. dkio(7I) is now the preferred method for retrieving disk information.

The SMD and IPI disk drivers supplied with this release support a set of ioctl(2) requests for diagnostics and bad sector information. Basic to these ioctl() requests are the definitions in <sys/hdio.h>.

IOCTLS

HDKIOCGTYPE

The argument is a pointer to a hdk_type structure (described below). This ioctl() gets specific information from the hard disk.

HDKIOCSTYPE

The argument is a pointer to a hdk_type structure (described below). This ioctl() sets specific information about the hard disk.

/*
 * Used for drive info
 */
struct hdk_type {
 ushort_t hdkt_hsect; /* hard sector count (read only) */
 ushort_t hdkt_promrev; /* prom revision (read only) */
 uchar_t hdkt_drtype; /* drive type (ctlr specific) */
 uchar_t hdkt_drstat; /* drive status (ctlr specific, ro) */
};

HDKIOCGBAD

The argument is a pointer to a hdk_badmap structure (described below). This ioctl() is used to get the bad sector map from the disk.

HDKIOCSBAD

The argument is a pointer to a hdk_badmap structure (described below). This ioctl() is used to set the bad sector map on the disk.

/*
 * Used for bad sector map
 */
struct hdk_badmap {
 caddr_t hdkb_bufaddr; /* address of user's map buffer */
};

HDKIOCGDIAG

The argument is a pointer to a hdk_diag structure (described below). This ioctl() gets the most recent command that failed along with the sector and error number from the hard disk.

/*
 * Used for disk diagnostics
 */
struct hdk_diag {
 ushort_t hdkd_errcmd; /* most recent command in error */
 daddr_t hdkd_errsect; /* most recent sector in error */
 uchar_t hdkd_errno; /* most recent error number */
 uchar_t hdkd_severe; /* severity of most recent error */
};
