    NAME

    ioctl - control device
     
    

    SYNOPSIS

    #include <sys/ioctl.h>

    int ioctl(int d, int request, ...);  

    DESCRIPTION

    The ioctl() function manipulates the underlying device parameters of special files. In particular, many operating characteristics of character special files (e.g., terminals) may be controlled with ioctl() requests. The argument d must be an open file descriptor.

    The second argument is a device-dependent request code. The third argument is an untyped pointer to memory. It's traditionally char *argp (from the days before void * was valid C), and will be so named for this discussion.

    An ioctl() request has encoded in it whether the argument is an in parameter or out parameter, and the size of the argument argp in bytes. Macros and defines used in specifying an ioctl() request are located in the file <sys/ioctl.h>.  

    RETURN VALUE

    Usually, on success zero is returned. A few ioctl() requests use the return value as an output parameter and return a non-negative value on success. On error, -1 is returned, and errno is set appropriately.  

    ERRORS

    EBADF
    d is not a valid descriptor.
    EFAULT
    argp references an inaccessible memory area.
    EINVAL
    Request or argp is not valid.
    ENOTTY
    d is not associated with a character special device.
    ENOTTY
    The specified request does not apply to the kind of object that the descriptor d references.
     

    CONFORMING TO

    No single standard. Arguments, returns, and semantics of ioctl() vary according to the device driver in question (the call is used as a catch-all for operations that don't cleanly fit the Unix stream I/O model). See ioctl_list(2) for a list of many of the known ioctl() calls. The ioctl() function call appeared in Version 7 AT&T Unix.  

    NOTES

    In order to use this call, one needs an open file descriptor. Often the open(2) call has unwanted side effects, that can be avoided under Linux by giving it the O_NONBLOCK flag.
