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.
VERSIONS
These system calls are available since Linux 3.19.
STANDARDS
This Linux-specific system call is available only on the s390 architec-
ture. The required PCI support is available beginning with System z
EC12.
