the WAIT mode.
errMsg
gives the reason for the error.
ioctl(DEV_OLAR_GET_ABEVENT/NOWAIT) error : errno =
errMsg
An error has occurred on the ioctl() call to get Attention Button events from the kernel in
the NOWAIT mode.
errMsg
gives the reason for the error.
ioctl(DEV_OLAR_GET_ABEVENT/WAIT) error : errno =
errMsg
sleeping for n seconds
An error has occurred on the ioctl() call to get Attention Button events from the kernel in
the WAIT mode.
errMsg
gives the reason for the error. This error occurred within 1 second
of the previous error. The daemon will sleep for n seconds before making another ioctl()
call.
#
oprnNum oprn
- slot(

errMsg
Could not open the device in the read-write mode.
errMsg
gives the reason for the error.
Error setting close-on-exec flag on /dev/olar file =
errMsg

errMsg
gives the reason
for the error. At times, terminating the daemon with kill -9 may not clear all kernel data
structures. If you try to restart the daemon, it may report an error,
ioctl(DEV_OLAR_INIT_ABEVENT) Failed. In such circumstances, the system must be
rebooted to start the daemon successfully.
ioctl(DEV_OLAR_INIT_ABEVENT) Failed, olar_error_no =
olarErrMsg
The initialization of hotplugd for getting Attention Button events failed.
olarErrMsg
gives
the reason for the error.

errMsg
gives the

olarErrMsg
gives the reason for the error.
