Kernel Functions for Drivers                ddiintrsetmask(9F)



NAME
     ddiintrsetmask, ddiintrclrmask - set or clear mask for
     a given interrupt

SYNOPSIS
     #include 
     #include 
     #include 
     #include 

     int ddiintrsetmask(ddiintrhandlet h);


     int ddiintrclrmask(ddiintrhandlet h);


INTERFACE LEVEL
     Solaris DI specific (Solaris DI).

PARAMETERS
     h    DI interrupt handle


DESCRIPTION
     The ddiintrsetmask() function masks the  given  interrupt
     pointed  to by the device's interrupt handle h if the device
     or  host  bridge  supports  the   masking   operation.   The
     ddiintrgetcap()    function    returns    the   RO   flag
     DINTRFLAGMASKABLE if the device or host bridge supports
     interrupt  mask bits for the given interrupt type. In flight
     interrupts can still be taken and delivered to the driver.


     The ddiintrclrmask() function unmasks the given interrupt
     pointed  by the device's interrupt handle h if the device or
     host bridge supports the masking operation.


     The ddiintrsetmask()  and  ddiintrclrmask()  functions
     should  be called only if an interrupt is enabled. Otherwise
     the framework will return DIEINVAL to such calls.


     The mask cannot be cleared directly if the OS implementation
     has  also  temporarily  masked  the  interrupt.  A  call  to
     ddiintrclrmask()  must  be  preceded   by   a   call   to
     ddiintrsetmask().   It   is   not   necessary   to   call
     ddiintrclrmask() when adding and enabling the interrupt.

RETURN VALUES
     The ddiintrsetmask()  and  ddiintrclrmask()  functions
     return:

     DISUCES    On success.


     DIEINVAL     On encountering invalid input  parameters  or
                    when an interrupt is not enabled.


     DIFAILURE    On any implementation specific failure.


     DIENOTSUP    On device not supporting operation.


CONTEXT
     The ddiintrsetmask()  and  ddiintrclrmask()  functions
     can be called from any context.

NOTES
     Consumers of these interfaces should verify that the  return
     value  is  not equal to DISUCES. Incomplete checking for
     failure codes could result in  inconsistent  behavior  among
     platforms.
