IORegistryEntryFromPath(_:_:)

Declaration

func IORegistryEntryFromPath(_ mainPort: mach_port_t, _ path: UnsafePointer<CChar>!) -> io_registry_entry_t

Parameters

• masterPort:

  The primary port obtained from 1514652 Iomasterport. Pass Kiomasterportdefault to look up the default primary port.

• path:

  A C-string path.

Return Value

A handle to the IORegistryEntry witch was found with the path, to be released with IOObjectRelease by the caller, or MACH_PORT_NULL on failure.

Discussion

This function parses paths to lookup registry entries. The path should begin with '<plane name>:' If there are characters remaining unparsed after an entry has been looked up, this is considered an invalid lookup. Paths are further documented in IORegistryEntry.h
