Kernel Functions for Drivers        csx_Parse_CISTPL_GEOMETRY(9F)



NAME
     csx_Parse_CISTPL_GEOMETRY - parse the Geometry tuple

SYNOPSIS
     #include 



     int32_t csx_Parse_CISTPL_GEOMETRY(client_handle_t ch, tuple_t *tu,
          cistpl_geometry_t *pt);


INTERFACE LEVEL
     Solaris DDI Specific (Solaris DDI)

PARAMETERS
     ch    Client handle returned from csx_RegisterClient(9F).


     tu    Pointer  to  a  tuple_t  structure   (see   tuple(9S))
           returned   by   a  call  to  csx_GetFirstTuple(9F)  or
           csx_GetNextTuple(9F).


     pt    Pointer to a cistpl_geometry_t  structure  which  con-
           tains  the  parsed  CISTPL_GEOMETRY  tuple information
           upon return from this function.


DESCRIPTION
     This function parses the  Geometry  tuple,  CISTPL_GEOMETRY,
     into a form usable by PC Card drivers.


     The CISTPL_GEOMETRY tuple indicates the geometry of a  disk-
     like device.

STRUCTURE MEMBERS
     The structure members of cistpl_geometry_t are:

         uint32_t     spt;
          uint32_t     tpc;
          uint32_t     ncyl;



     The fields are defined as follows:

     spt     This field  indicates  the  number  of  sectors  per
             track.
