Kernel Functions for Driversunbufcall(9F)


NAME

 unbufcall - cancel a pending bufcall request

SYNOPSIS

 
#include <sys/stream.h>
void unbufcall(bufcall_id_t id);

INTERFACE LEVEL

 

Architecture independent level 1 (DDI/DKI).


PARAMETERS

 
id
Identifier returned from bufcall(9F) or esbbcall(9F) .

DESCRIPTION

 

unbufcall cancels a pending bufcall() or esbbcall() request. The argument id is a non-zero identifier for the request to be cancelled. id is returned from the bufcall() or esbbcall() function used to issue the request. unbufcall() will not return until the pending callback is cancelled or has run. Because of this, locks acquired by the callback routine should not be held across the call to unbufcall() or deadlock may result.


RETURN VALUES

 

None.


CONTEXT

 

unbufcall() can be called from user or interrupt context.
