s390_pci_mmio_write(2) System Calls Manual s390_pci_mmio_write(2)
NAME
s390_pci_mmio_write, s390_pci_mmio_read - transfer data to/from PCI
MMIO memory page
LIBRARY
Standard C library (libc, -lc)
SYNOPSIS
#include <sys/syscall.h> /* Definition of SYS_* constants */
#include <unistd.h>
int syscall(SYS_s390_pci_mmio_write, unsigned long mmio_addr,
const void user_buffer[.length], size_t length);
int syscall(SYS_s390_pci_mmio_read, unsigned long mmio_addr,
void user_buffer[.length], size_t length);
Note: glibc provides no wrappers for these system calls, necessitating
the use of syscall(2).
DESCRIPTION
The s390_pci_mmio_write() system call writes length bytes of data from
the user-space buffer user_buffer to the PCI MMIO memory location spec-
ified by mmio_addr. The s390_pci_mmio_read() system call reads length
bytes of data from the PCI MMIO memory location specified by mmio_addr
to the user-space buffer user_buffer.
These system calls must be used instead of the simple assignment or
data-transfer operations that are used to access the PCI MMIO memory
areas mapped to user space on the Linux System z platform. The address
specified by mmio_addr must belong to a PCI MMIO memory page mapping in
the caller's address space, and the data being written or read must not
cross a page boundary. The length value cannot be greater than the
system page size.
RETURN VALUE
On success, s390_pci_mmio_write() and s390_pci_mmio_read() return 0.
On failure, -1 is returned and errno is set to indicate the error.
ERRORS
EFAULT The address in mmio_addr is invalid.
EFAULT user_buffer does not point to a valid location in the caller's
address space.
EINVAL Invalid length argument.
ENODEV PCI support is not enabled.
ENOMEM Insufficient memory.
STANDARDS
Linux on s390.
HISTORY
Linux 3.19. System z EC12.
