vxfs_ap_alloc2 (3)

NAME

vxfs_ap_alloc2 - allocate an fsap_info2 structure

SYNOPSIS

For 32-bit applications:

cc -I /opt/VRTS/include -L /opt/VRTS/lib

-l vxfsutil -ldl

For 64-bit applications:

cc -I /opt/VRTS/include -L /opt/VRTS/lib/64

-l vxfsutil -ldld
#include <sys/types.h>

#include <vxfsutil.h>

struct fsap_info2 * vxfs_ap_alloc2(uint32_t ncomp, uint32_t flags);

AVAILABILITY

VRTSvxfs

DESCRIPTION

vxfs_ap_alloc2() allocates an fsap_info2 structure large enough to contain ncomp components, where components are either volumes if flags is 0, or subpolicies if flags has FSAP_SUBPOLICIES set.

To use this function, specify -l vxfsutil while linking. Specify the /opt/VRTSfssdk/5.0/lib directory for 32-bit executables, or the /opt/VRTSfssdk/5.0/lib/64 directory for 64-bit executables.

If the LIBVXFSUTIL_DLL_PATH environment variable is defined, it should be set to the name of the vxfsutil.so file, such as ~/mylib/vxfsutil.so. If undefined, this variable is assumed to point to the 32-bit and 64-bit vxfsutil.so files, /opt/VRTSvxfs/lib/vxfsutil.so and /opt/VRTSvxfs/lib/64/vxfsutil.so, respectively.

The fsap_info2 structure is freed by calling vxfs_ap_free2().


struct fsap_info2 { char ap_name[FSAP_NAMESZ]; uint32_t ap_flags; uint32_t ap_order; uint64_t ap_chunk; uint32_t ap_ncomp; uint32_t ap_pad; union { char apc_vols[1][FSVOL_NAMEZ]; char apc_subp[1][FSAP_NAMEZ]; } ap_comp; }; #define ap_vols ap_comp.apc_vols #define ap_subp ap_comp.apc_subp

Possible values for flags are:
FSAP_ANYUSER
  The policy can be assigned by non-privileged users. By default, only privileged users can assign policies.
FSAP_SUBPOLICIES
  The policy definition will contain the names of other allocation policies in its component list. Without this flag, the component list will contain volume names. A policy can refer to either subpolicies or volumes, but not to both.

NOTES

This function is supported only on Version 6 and later disk layouts. This API supports file system versions 6.0 and above.

RETURN VALUES

vxfs_ap_alloc2() returns a pointer to the newly allocated fsap_info2 structure, or NULL on failure.
