For example, a SET_FOO ioctl would -be _IOW, although the kernel would actually read data from user space; -a GET_FOO ioctl would be _IOR, although the kernel would actually write -data to user space. - -The first argument to _IO, _IOW, _IOR, or _IOWR is an identifying letter -or number from the table below. Because of the large number of drivers, -many drivers share a partial letter with other drivers. - -If you are writing a driver for a new device and need a letter, pick an -unused block with enough room for expansion: 32 to 256 ioctl commands. -You can register the block by patching this file and submitting the -patch to Linus Torvalds. Or you can e-mail me at <mec@shout.net> and -I'll register one for you. - -The second argument to _IO, _IOW, _IOR, or _IOWR is a sequence number -to distinguish ioctls from each other. The third argument to _IOW, -_IOR, or _IOWR is the type of the data going into the kernel or coming -out of the kernel (e.g. 'int' or 'struct foo'). NOTE! Do NOT use -sizeof(arg) as the third argument as this results in your ioctl thinking -it passes an argument of type size_t. - -Some devices use their major number as the identifier; this is OK, as -long as it is unique. Some devices are irregular and don't follow any -convention at all. - -Following this convention is good because: - -(1) Keeping the ioctl's globally unique helps error checking: - if a program calls an ioctl on the wrong device, it will get an - error rather than some unexpected behaviour. - -(2) The 'strace' build procedure automatically finds ioctl numbers - defined with _IO, _IOW, _IOR, or _IOWR. - -(3) 'strace' can decode numbers back into useful names when the - numbers are unique. - -(4) People looking for ioctls can grep for them more easily when - this convention is used to define the ioctl numbers. - -(5) When following the convention, the driver code can use generic - code to copy the parameters between user and kernel space. - -This table lists ioctls visible from user land for Linux/x86. It contains -most drivers up to 2.6.31, but I know I am missing some. There has been -no attempt to list non-X86 architectures or ioctls from drivers/staging/. - -Code Seq#(hex) Include File Comments -======================================================== -0x00 00-1F linux/fs.h conflict!
