Device Information Library Functions   di_path_bus_addr(3DEVINFO)



NAME
     di_path_bus_addr,   di_path_client_node,   di_path_instance,
     di_path_node_name, di_path_phci_node, di_path_state - return
     libdevinfo path node information

SYNOPSIS
     cc [ flag... ] file... -ldevinfo [ library... ]
     #include 

     char *di_path_bus_addr(di_path_t path);


     di_node_t di_path_client_node(di_path_t path);


     int di_path_instance(di_path_t path);


     char *di_path_node_name(di_path_t path);


     di_node_t di_path_phci_node(di_path_t path);


     di_path_state_t di_path_state(di_path_t path);


PARAMETERS
     path    The handle to a path  node  in  a  di_init(3DEVINFO)
             snapshot.


DESCRIPTION
     These functions extract information associated with  a  path
     node.

RETURN VALUES
     The di_path_bus_addr() function returns a string  represent-
     ing  the  pHCI child path node's unit-address. This function
     is the di_path_t peer of di_bus_addr(3DEVINFO).


     The di_path_client_node() function returns the di_node_t  of
     the  'client'  device  node  associated  with the given path
     node. If the client  device  node  is  not  present  in  the
     current  device  tree  snapshot, DI_NODE_NIL is returned and
     errno is set to ENOTSUP.


     The di_path_node_name() function  returns  a  pointer  to  a
     null-terminated  string  containing the path node name. This
     function is the di_path_t peer of di_node_name(3DEVINFO).

     The di_path_instance() function returns the instance  number
     associated  with  the given path node.  A path node instance
     is persistent across attach(9E)/detach(9E)and device  recon-
     figurations, but not across reboot.  A path node instance is
     unrelated to a device node di_instance(3DEVINFO).


     The di_path_phci_node() function returns  the  di_node_t  of
     the  pHCI  host adapter associated with the given path node.
     If the pHCI device node is not present in the current device
     tree  snapshot,  DI_NODE_NIL is returned and errno is set to
     ENOTSUP.


     The di_path_state() function returns the  state  of  an  I/O
     path. This function may return one of the following values:

     DI_PATH_STATE_ONLINE

         Identifies that the path_info node  is  online  and  I/O
         requests can be routed through this path.


     DI_PATH_STATE_OFFLINE

         Identifies that the path_info node is in offline state.


     DI_PATH_STATE_FAULT

         Identifies that the path_info node is in  faulted  state
         and not ready for I/O operations.


     DI_PATH_STATE_STANDBY

         Identifies that the path_info node is in  standby  state
         and not ready for I/O operations.
