.Dt G_ACCESS 9
|
|
.Os
|
|
.Sh NAME
|
|
.Nm g_access
|
|
.Nd "control access to GEOM consumers and their providers"
|
|
.Sh SYNOPSIS
|
|
.In geom/geom.h
|
|
.Ft int
|
|
.Fn g_access "struct g_consumer *cp" "int dcr" "int dcw" "int dce"
|
|
.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn g_access
|
|
function allows to open, close, and generally change access to the provider
|
|
which is attached to the given consumer
|
|
.Fa cp .
|
|
The arguments
|
|
.Fa dcr ,
|
|
.Fa dcw ,
|
|
and
|
|
.Fa dce
|
|
represent relative read, write, and exclusive access count changes.
|
|
Read and write access counts are self explanatory, and
|
|
exclusive access counts deny write access to other interested parties.
|
|
A provider's access count is the sum of the access counts of all
|
|
attached consumers.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
After attaching a consumer to a provider with
|
|
.Xr g_attach 9 ,
|
|
the
|
|
.Fn g_access
|
|
function has to be called on the consumer before starting I/O requests.
|
|
.Sh RESTRICTIONS/CONDITIONS
|
|
The consumer has to be attached to a provider.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The intended change must not result in a negative access count.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
No-operation is not permitted
|
|
.Fa ( dcr
|
|
=
|
|
.Fa dcw
|
|
=
|
|
.Fa dce
|
|
=
|
|
.Li 0 ) .
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The provider's geom must have an access method defined (e.g.,
|
|
.Va gp->access ) .
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The topology lock has to be held.
|
|
.Sh RETURN VALUES
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn g_access
|
|
function returns 0 if successful; otherwise an error code is returned.
|
|
Note that
|
|
.Fn g_access
|
|
cannot fail when the arguments
|
|
.Fa dcr ,
|
|
.Fa dcw ,
|
|
and
|
|
.Fa dce
|
|
are less than or equal to 0.
|
|
.Sh EXAMPLES
|
|
Create a consumer, attach it to a given provider, gain read access and
|
|
read first sector.

.Sh ERRORS
|
|
Possible errors:
|
|
.Bl -tag -width Er

The function is trying to open a provider for writing, but it is already
|
|
exclusively open.

|
|
.Pp
|
|
Any other error that can be returned by the provider's access method.
