NAME

pm_busy_component, pm_idle_component − control device components’ availability for power management

SYNOPSIS

#include <sys/ddi.h>
#include <sys/sunddi.h>

int pm_busy_component(dev_info_t ∗dip, int component);

int pm_idle_component(dev_info_t ∗dip, int component);

INTERFACE LEVEL

Solaris DDI specific (Solaris DDI). 

ARGUMENTS

pm_busy_component()

dip Pointer to the device’s dev_info structure. 

component The number of the component to be power-managed. 

pm_idle_component()

dip Pointer to the device’s dev_info structure. 

component The number of the component to be power-managed. 

DESCRIPTION

The pm_busy_component() function sets component of dip to be busy.  Calls to pm_busy_component() are stacked, requiring a corresponding number of calls to pm_idle_component() to make the component idle again.  When a device is busy it will not be power-managed by the system. 

The pm_idle_component() function marks component idle, recording the time that component went idle.  This function must be called once for each call to pm_busy_component().  A component which is idle is available to be power-managed by the system.  The pm_idle_component() function has no effect if the component is already idle, except to update the system’s notion of when the device went idle. 

RETURN VALUES

The pm_busy_component() and pm_idle_component() functions return:

DDI_SUCCESS
Successfully set the indicated component busy or idle.

DDI_FAILURE
Invalid component number component or the device has no components. 

CONTEXT

These functions can be called from user or kernel context.
