scsi_hba_init(9F)




NAME

     scsi_hba_init, scsi_hba_fini - SCSI Host Bus Adapter  system
     initialization and completion routines


SYNOPSIS

     #include <sys/scsi/scsi.h>

     int scsi_hba_init(struct modlinkage *modlp);

     void scsi_hba_fini(struct modlinkage *modlp);


INTERFACE LEVEL

     Solaris architecture specific (Solaris DDI).


PARAMETERS

     modlp Pointer to the Host Bus Adapters module linkage struc-
           ture.


DESCRIPTION

  scsi_hba_init()
     scsi_hba_init() is the system-provided  initialization  rou-
     tine  for  SCSI  HBA  drivers.  The scsi_hba_init() function
     registers the HBA in the system and  allows  the  driver  to
     accept  configuration  requests  on  behalf  of  SCSI target
     drivers. The scsi_hba_init() routine must be called  in  the
     HBA's _init(9E) routine before mod_install(9F) is called. If
     mod_install(9F)  fails,  the  HBA's  _init(9E)  should  call
     scsi_hba_fini() before returning failure.

  scsi_hba_fini()
     scsi_hba_fini() is the system  provided  completion  routine
     for  SCSI  HBA  drivers.  scsi_hba_fini() removes all of the
     system  references  for  the  HBA  that  were   created   in
     scsi_hba_init().   The  scsi_hba_fini()  routine  should  be
     called in the HBA's _fini(9E) routine if  mod_remove(9F)  is
     successful.


RETURN VALUES

     scsi_hba_init() returns 0  if  successful,  and  a  non-zero
     value otherwise. If scsi_hba_init() fails, the HBA's _init()
     entry  point   should   return   the   value   returned   by
     scsi_hba_init().


CONTEXT

     scsi_hba_init() and scsi_hba_fini() should  be  called  from
     _init(9E) or _fini(9E), respectively.


SEE ALSO

     _fini(9E),   _init(9E),   mod_install(9F),   mod_remove(9F),
     scsi_pktalloc(9F), scsi_pktfree(9F), scsi_hba_tran(9S)

     Writing Device Drivers


NOTES

     The HBA is responsible for ensuring that no DDI request rou-
     tines  are  called on behalf of its SCSI target drivers once
     scsi_hba_fini() is called.
