The RTAS call ibm,get-dynamic-sensor-state is used to get the
sensor state identified by the location code and the sensor
token. The librtas library provides an API
rtas_get_dynamic_sensor() which uses /dev/mem access for work
area allocation but is restricted under system lockdown.
This patch provides an interface with new ioctl
PAPR_DYNAMIC_SENSOR_IOC_GET to the papr-indices character
driver which executes this HCALL and copies the sensor state
in the user specified ioctl buffer.
Refer PAPR 7.3.19 ibm,get-dynamic-sensor-state for more
information on this RTAS call.
- User input parameters to the RTAS call: location code string
and the sensor token
Expose these interfaces to user space with a /dev/papr-indices
character device using the following programming model:
int fd = open("/dev/papr-indices", O_RDWR);
int ret = ioctl(fd, PAPR_DYNAMIC_SENSOR_IOC_GET,
struct papr_indices_io_block)
- The user space specifies input parameters in
papr_indices_io_block struct
- Returned state for the specified sensor is copied to
papr_indices_io_block.dynamic_param.state
