.TH DDI_DMA_NEXTSEG 9F "Apr 04, 2006"
.SH NAME
ddi_dma_nextseg \- get next DMA segment
.SH SYNOPSIS
.LP
.nf
#include <sys/ddi.h>
#include <sys/sunddi.h>
\fBint\fR \fBddi_dma_nextseg\fR(\fBddi_dma_win_t\fR \fIwin\fR, \fBddi_dma_seg_t\fR \fIseg\fR,
\fBddi_dma_seg_t *\fR\fInseg\fR);
.fi
.SH INTERFACE LEVEL
.sp
.LP
This interface is obsolete. \fBddi_dma_nextcookie\fR(9F) should be used
instead.
.SH PARAMETERS
.sp
.ne 2
.na
\fB\fIwin\fR\fR
.ad
.RS 8n
A \fBDMA\fR window.
.RE
.sp
.ne 2
.na
\fB\fIseg\fR\fR
.ad
.RS 8n
The current \fBDMA\fR segment or \fINULL\fR.
.RE
.sp
.ne 2
.na
\fB\fInseg\fR\fR
.ad
.RS 8n
A pointer to the next \fBDMA\fR segment to be filled in. If \fIseg\fR is
\fINULL\fR, a pointer to the first segment within the specified window is
returned.
.RE
.SH DESCRIPTION
.sp
.LP
The \fBddi_dma_nextseg()\fR function gets the next \fBDMA\fR segment within the
specified window \fIwin\fR. If the current segment is \fINULL\fR, the first
\fBDMA\fR segment within the window is returned.
.sp
.LP
A \fBDMA\fR segment is always required for a \fBDMA\fR window. A \fBDMA\fR
segment is a contiguous portion of a \fBDMA\fR window (see
\fBddi_dma_nextwin\fR(9F)) which is entirely addressable by the device for a
data transfer operation.
.sp
.LP
An example where multiple \fBDMA\fR segments are allocated is where the system
does not contain \fBDVMA\fR capabilities and the object may be non-contiguous.
In this example the object will be broken into smaller contiguous \fBDMA\fR
segments. Another example is where the device has an upper limit on its
transfer size (for example an 8-bit address register) and has expressed this in
the \fBDMA\fR limit structure (see \fBddi_dma_lim_sparc\fR(9S) or
\fBddi_dma_lim_x86\fR(9S)). In this example the object will be broken into
smaller addressable \fBDMA\fR segments.
.SH RETURN VALUES
.sp
.LP
The \fBddi_dma_nextseg()\fR function returns:
.sp
.ne 2
.na
\fB\fBDDI_SUCCESS\fR\fR
.ad
.RS 17n
Successfully filled in the next segment pointer.
.RE
.sp
.ne 2
.na
\fB\fBDDI_DMA_DONE\fR\fR
.ad
.RS 17n
There is no next segment. The current segment is the final segment within the
specified window.
.RE
.sp
.ne 2
.na
\fB\fBDDI_DMA_STALE\fR\fR
.ad
.RS 17n
\fIwin\fR does not refer to the currently active window.
.RE
.SH CONTEXT
.sp
.LP
The \fBddi_dma_nextseg()\fR function can be called from user, interrupt, or
kernel context.
.SH EXAMPLES
.sp
.LP
For an example, see \fBddi_dma_segtocookie\fR(9F).
