pci_report_pmcap(9F)
NAME
pci_report_pmcap - Report Power Management capability of a
PCI device
SYNOPSIS
#include <sys/ddi.h>
#include <sys/sunddi.h>
int pci_report_pmcap(dev_info_t *dip, int cap, void *arg);
INTERFACE LEVEL
Solaris DDI specific (Solaris DDI)
PARAMETERS
dip Pointer to the device's dev_info structure
cap Power management capability
arg Argument for the capability
DESCRIPTION
Some PCI devices provide power management capabilities in
addition to those provided by the PCI Power Management
Specification. The pci_report_pmcap(9F) function reports
those Power Management capabilities of the PCI device to the
framework. Framework supports dynamic changing of the capa-
bility by allowing pci_report_pmcap(9F) to be called multi-
ple times. Following are the supported capabilities as indi-
cated by the cap:
PCI_PM_IDLESPEED - The PCI_PM_IDLESPEED value indicates the
lowest PCI clock speed that a device can tolerate when idle,
and is applicable only to 33 MHz PCI bus. arg represents
the lowest possible idle speed in KHz (1 KHz is 1000 Hz).
The integer value representing the speed should be cast to
(void *) before passing as arg to pci_report_pmcap(9F).
The special values of arg are:
PCI_PM_IDLESPEED_ANY
The device can tolerate any idle clock speed.
PCI_PM_IDLESPEED_NONE
The device cannot tolerate slowing down of PCI
clock even when idle.
If the driver doesn't make this call, PCI_PM_IDLESPEED_NONE
is assumed. In this case, one offending device can keep the
entire bus from being power managed.
RETURN VALUES
The pci_report_pmcap(9F) function returns:
DDI_SUCCESS
Successful reporting of the capability
DDI_FAILURE
Failure to report capability because of invalid
argument(s)
CONTEXT
The pci_report_pmcap(9F) function can be called from user,
kernel and interrupt context.
EXAMPLES
1. A device driver knows that the device it controls works
with any clock between DC and 33 MHz as specified in Section
4.2.3.1: Clock Specification of the PCI Bus Specification
Revision 2.1. The device driver makes the following call
from its attach(9E):
if (pci_report_pmcap(dip, PCI_PM_IDLESPEED, PCI_PM_IDLESPEED_ANY) !=
DDI_SUCCESS)
cmn_err(CE_WARN, "%s%d: pci_report_pmcap failed\n",
ddi_driver_name(dip), ddi_get_instance(dip));
2. A device driver controls a 10/100 Mb Ethernet device
which runs the device state machine on the chip from the PCI
clock. For the device state machine to receive packets at
100 Mb, the PCI clock cannot drop below 4 MHz. The driver
makes the following call whenever it negotiates a 100 Mb
Ethernet connection:
if (pci_report_pmcap(dip, PCI_PM_IDLESPEED, (void *)4000) !=
DDI_SUCCESS)
cmn_err(CE_WARN, "%s%d: pci_report_pmcap failed\n",
ddi_driver_name(dip), ddi_get_instance(dip));
