Fault Management in the Solaris OS

The Solaris OS has implemented fault management for years, but now the I/O fault services interfaces are documented in the Writing Device Drivers book.

1. Go to the Solaris Express Developer Edition version of Writing Device Drivers
2. Click “Designing Device Drivers for the Solaris Platform”
3. Click “Chapter 13, Hardening Solaris Drivers”
4. Click “Sun Fault Management Architecture I/O Fault Services”

The other material in this driver hardening chapter also is very important. It was all selected for inclusion by the Sun fault management engineering team.

For more information about fault management in the Solaris OS, see the fault management community site on the OpenSolaris web site.

To ask questions or make comments, use the fm:discuss forum on the OpenSolaris site.
