The address mapping is controlled by an .Xr ioctl 2 call to map the device into user space, and an unmap call when finished. .Pp The ioctls supported by .Ox are: .Bl -tag -width GRFIOCGINFO .It Dv GRFIOCGINFO Get Graphics Info .Pp Get info about device, setting the entries in the .Em grfinfo structure, as defined in .Aq Pa machine/grfioctl.h : .Bd -literal struct grfinfo { int gd_id; /* HP-UX identifier */ caddr_t gd_regaddr; /* control registers physaddr */ int gd_regsize; /* control registers size */ caddr_t gd_fbaddr; /* frame buffer physaddr */ int gd_fbsize; /* frame buffer size */ short gd_colors; /* number of colors */ short gd_planes; /* number of planes */ /* new stuff */ int gd_fbwidth; /* frame buffer width */ int gd_fbheight; /* frame buffer height */ int gd_dwidth; /* displayed part width */ int gd_dheight; /* displayed part height */ int gd_pad[6]; /* for future expansion */ }; .Ed .It Dv GRFIOCON Graphics On .Pp Turn graphics on by enabling .Tn CRT output. The screen will come on, displaying whatever is in the frame buffer, using whatever colormap is in place. .It Dv GRFIOCOFF Graphics Off .Pp Turn graphics off by disabling output to the .Tn CRT . The frame buffer contents are not affected. .It Dv GRFIOCMAP Map Device to user space .Pp Map in control registers and frame buffer space. Once the device file is mapped, the frame buffer memory and registers are accessible. .It Dv GRFIOCUNMAP Unmap Device .Pp Unmap control registers and frame buffer space. .El .Sh FILES .Bl -tag -width /dev/XXXX -compact .It Pa /dev/grf? .Ox interface special files .El .Sh EXAMPLES This short code fragment is an example of opening some graphics device and mapping in the control and frame buffer space: .Bd -literal #define GRF_DEV /* /dev/grfN */ struct fbstruct *regs; /* fbstruct = gboxfb, rboxfb, etc. */ u_char *Addr, frame_buffer; struct grfinfo gi; int disp_fd; disp_fd = open(GRF_DEV, O_WRONLY); if (ioctl(disp_fd, GRFIOCGINFO, &gi) < 0) return -1; ioctl(disp_fd, GRFIOCON, 0); if (ioctl(disp_fd, GRFIOCMAP, &Addr) < 0) { ioctl(disp_fd, GRFIOCOFF, 0); return -1; } regs = (fbstruct *)Addr; /* Control Registers */ frame_buffer = (u_char *)Addr + gi.gd_regsize; /* Frame buffer mem */ .Ed .Sh DIAGNOSTICS None under .Ox . .Pp .Tn HP-UX The .Tn CE.utilities/Crtadjust programs, running in .Tn HP-UX compatibility mode, can be used for each specific device. .Sh SEE ALSO .Xr ioctl 2 , .Xr cons 4 , .Xr dvbox 4 , .Xr gbox 4 , .Xr hil 4 , .Xr hyper 4 , .Xr intro 4 , .Xr ite 4 , .Xr rbox 4 , .Xr topcat 4
