Similarly, if an uninitialized +.\"(or +.\".No non- Ns Fx ) +.\"slice is opened, its disklabel will be initialized with parameters returned +.\"by the drive and a single +.\".Sq Li c +.\"partition encompassing the entire slice. +.Sh IOCTLS +The following +.Xr ioctl 2 +calls apply to +.Tn SCSI +disks as well as to other disks. +They are defined in the header file +.In sys/dkio.h . +.Bl -tag -width Ds +.\".It Dv DIOCSBAD +.\"Usually used to set up a bad-block mapping system on the disk. +.\".Tn SCSI +.\"drive incorporate their own bad-block mapping so this command is not +.\"implemented. +.It Dv DIOCGDINFO Fa "struct disklabel *" +Read, from the kernel, the in-core copy of the disklabel for the +drive. +This may be a fictitious disklabel if the drive has never +been initialized, in which case it will contain information read +from the +.Tn SCSI +inquiry commands. +.It Dv DIOCSDINFO Fa "struct disklabel *" +Give the driver a new disklabel to use. +The driver +.Em will not +write the new +disklabel to the disk. +.It Dv DIOCWDINFO Fa "struct disklabel *" +Give the driver a new disklabel to use. +The driver +.Em will +write the new disklabel to the disk. +.It Dv DIOCLOCK Fa "int *" +Lock the media cartridge into the device, or unlock a cartridge previously +locked. +Used to prevent user and software eject while the media is in use. +.It Dv DIOCEJECT +Eject the media cartridge from a removable device. +.It Dv DIOCINQ Fa "struct dk_inquiry *" +Read the devices product information. +.El +.Pp +In addition, the +.Xr scsi 4 +general +.Fn ioctl +commands may be used with the +.Nm +driver, but only against the +.Sq Li c +(whole disk) partition. +.Sh NOTES +If a removable device is attached to the +.Nm +driver, then the act of changing the media will invalidate the +disklabel and information held within the kernel. +To avoid corruption, all access to the device will be discarded until there +are no more open file descriptors referencing the device. +During this period, all new open attempts will be rejected. +When no more open file descriptors reference the device, the first next +open will load a new set of parameters (including disklabel) for the drive. +.Sh FILES +.Bl -tag -width /dev/rsdXXXXX -compact +.It Pa /dev/sd Ns Ar u Ns Ar p +block mode +.Tn SCSI +disk unit +.Ar u , +partition +.Ar p +.It Pa /dev/rsd Ns Ar u Ns Ar p +raw mode +.Tn SCSI +disk unit +.Ar u , +partition +.Ar p +.El +.Sh DIAGNOSTICS +None. +.Sh SEE ALSO +.Xr intro 4 , +.Xr scsi 4 , +.Xr wd 4 , +.Xr disklabel 5 , +.Xr disklabel 8 , +.Xr fdisk 8 +.Sh HISTORY +.An Julian Elischer +wrote +.Nm +for Mach 2.5 and ported it to 386BSD. |
