EINTEGRITY was previously documented as a UFS-specific error for mount(2). This documents EINTEGRITY as a filesystem-independent error that may be reported by the backing store of a filesystem. While here, document EIO as a filesystem-independent error for both mount(2) and posix_fadvise(2). EIO was previously only documented for UFS for mount(2).

.Nm g_write_data
|
|
.Nd "read/write data from/to GEOM consumer"
|
|
.Sh SYNOPSIS
|
|
.In geom/geom.h
|
|
.Ft "void *"
|
|
.Fo g_read_data
|
|
.Fa "struct g_consumer *cp" "off_t offset" "off_t length" "int *error"

|
|
.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn g_read_data
|
|
function reads
|
|
.Fa length
|
|
bytes of data from the provider attached to consumer
|
|
.Fa cp ,
|
|
starting at offset
|
|
.Fa offset .
|
|
The buffer returned from
|
|
.Fn g_read_data
|
|
is allocated with
|
|
.Fn g_malloc ,
|
|
so it should be freed by the caller with
|
|
.Fn g_free
|
|
after use.
|
|
If the operation fails, an error value will be stored in the
|
|
.Fa error
|
|
argument if it is not
|
|
.Dv NULL .
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn g_write_data
|
|
function writes
|
|
.Fa length
|
|
bytes of data from the buffer pointed to by
|
|
.Fa ptr
|
|
to the provider attached to consumer
|
|
.Fa cp ,
|
|
starting at offset
|
|
.Fa offset .
|
|
.Sh RESTRICTIONS/CONDITIONS
|
|
The
|
|
.Fa length
|
|
argument
|
|
should be a multiple of the provider's sectorsize
|
|
and less than or equal to
|
|
.Dv DFLTPHYS
|
|
.Dv ( DFLTPHYS
|
|
is defined in
|
|
.In sys/param.h ) .
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The topology lock must not be held.
|
|
.Sh RETURN VALUES
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn g_read_data
|
|
function returns a pointer to a data buffer or
|
|
.Dv NULL
|
|
if an error occurred.
|
|
In that case an error value is stored in the
|
|
.Fa error
|
|
argument unless it is
|
|
.Dv NULL .
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn g_write_data
|
|
function returns 0 if successful; otherwise an error code is returned.
|
|
.Sh ERRORS
|
|
Possible errors:
|
|
.Bl -tag -width Er
|
|
.It Bq Er EIO
