2.4.1 Error Message Formats

MOTLoad displays error messages in one of six formats:

function_name(): open(<device_name>) failed, errno=<value>

function_name(): ioctl(<value>) failed, errno=<value>

function_name(): io_operation([device]) failed, errno=<value>

function_name(): error_message, errno=<value>

function_name(): error_message

error_messsage

In some cases, the message format may vary slightly from the above. For these messages, the

format and meaning is identified under the Error Messages section for the affected command.

When the operation attempts to open a device but encounters a failure during the open

process, the open message is displayed and identifies the complete device name (for example,

/dev/ide0/hdisk0).

When a general IOCTL command fails, the ioctl value identifies the failing I/O operation of a

specific device type; for example, block, terminal, tape, and so on. For an example set of IOCTL

codes, refer to the IOCTL Codes (Block) table (below). It is not necessary to know all the codes

for each type of device since the individual error message sections define the meaning of each

ioctl error message.

2.4.2 IOCTL Codes (Block)

The following table lists the IOCTL codes:

IOBLOCK_IOCTL_GET_DEVICE_TYPE 100

IOBLOCK_IOCTL_STATUS 101

IOBLOCK_IOCTL_RESET 102

IOBLOCK_IOCTL_GET_BLOCK_SIZE 103

IOBLOCK_IOCTL_NBLOCKS 104

IOBLOCK_IOCTL_FORMAT 105

IOBLOCK_IOCTL_SEEK_SET 106

IOBLOCK_IOCTL_SEEK_CURRENT 107

IOBLOCK_IOCTL_SEEK_END 108

1 2 ... 27 28 29 30 31 32 33 34 35 36 37 ... 281 282
