Ends a session with the Serial Optical Link (SOL) device handler.
The CIO_HALT operation ends a session with the SOL device handler. The caller indicates the network ID to halt. This CIO_HALT operation corresponds to the CIO_START operation successfully issued with the specified network ID. A CIO_HALT operation should be issued for each CIO_START operation successfully issued.
Data for the specified network ID is no longer received. Data received for the specified network ID before the halt is passed to a user-mode caller by the sol_select and sol_read entry points. Data is passed back to a kernel-mode caller by the rx_fn routine specified at open time.
For the CIO_HALT operation, the arg parameter points to the session_blk structure. This structure is defined in the /usr/include/sys/comio.h file and contains the following fields:
| status | Returns one of the following status values: |
| netid | Specifies the network ID. The network ID is placed in the least significant byte of the netid field. |
The CIO_HALT operation can be called from the process environment only.
The CIO_HALT operation functions with a Serial Link Adapter and Serial Optical Channel Converter that have been correctly configured for use on a qualified network. Consult hardware specifications for more information on configuring hardware and network qualifications.
