The buffer returned from .Fn g_read_data is allocated with .Fn g_malloc , so it should be freed by the caller with .Fn g_free after use. If the operation fails, an error value will be stored in the .Fa error argument if it is not .Dv NULL . .Pp The .Fn g_write_data function writes .Fa length bytes of data from the buffer pointed to by .Fa ptr to the provider attached to consumer .Fa cp , starting at offset .Fa offset . .Sh RESTRICTIONS/CONDITIONS The .Fa length argument should be a multiple of the provider's sectorsize and less than or equal to .Dv DFLTPHYS .Dv ( DFLTPHYS is defined in .In sys/param.h ) . .Pp The topology lock must not be held. .Sh RETURN VALUES The .Fn g_read_data function returns a pointer to a data buffer or .Dv NULL if an error occurred. In that case an error value is stored in the .Fa error argument unless it is .Dv NULL . .Pp The .Fn g_write_data function returns 0 if successful; otherwise an error code is returned. .Sh ERRORS Possible errors: .Bl -tag -width Er .It Bq Er EIO An I/O error occurred while reading from or writing to the consumer. .El .Sh SEE ALSO .Xr geom 4 , .Xr DECLARE_GEOM_CLASS 9 , .Xr g_access 9 , .Xr g_attach 9 , .Xr g_bio 9 , .Xr g_consumer 9 , .Xr g_event 9 , .Xr g_geom 9 , .Xr g_provider 9 , .Xr g_provider_by_name 9 , .Xr g_wither_geom 9 .Sh AUTHORS .An -nosplit This manual page was written by .An Pawel Jakub Dawidek Aq pjd@FreeBSD.org .
