Detailed Description

Enumeration Type Documentation

   enum hwloc_topology_export_xml_flags_e
       Flags for exporting XML topologies. Flags to be given as a OR'ed set to hwloc_topology_export_xml().

       Enumerator

       HWLOC_TOPOLOGY_EXPORT_XML_FLAG_V1
              Export XML that is loadable by hwloc v1.x. However, the export may miss some details about the
              topology.

Function Documentation

   int hwloc_export_obj_userdata (void * reserved, hwloc_topology_t topology, hwloc_obj_t obj, const char *
       name, const void * buffer, size_t length)
       Export some object userdata to XML. This function may only be called from within the export() callback
       passed to hwloc_topology_set_userdata_export_callback(). It may be invoked one of multiple times to
       export some userdata to XML. The buffer content of length length is stored with optional name name.

       When importing this XML file, the import() callback (if set) will be called exactly as many times as
       hwloc_export_obj_userdata() was called during export(). It will receive the corresponding name, buffer
       and length arguments.

       reserved, topology and obj must be the first three parameters that were given to the export callback.

       Only printable characters may be exported to XML string attributes.

       If exporting binary data, the application should first encode into printable characters only (or use
       hwloc_export_obj_userdata_base64()). It should also take care of portability issues if the export may be
       reimported on a different architecture.

       Returns
           0 on success.

           -1 with errno set to EINVAL if a non-printable character is passed in name or buffer.

   int hwloc_export_obj_userdata_base64 (void * reserved, hwloc_topology_t topology, hwloc_obj_t obj, const char
       * name, const void * buffer, size_t length)
       Encode and export some object userdata to XML. This function is similar to hwloc_export_obj_userdata()
       but it encodes the input buffer into printable characters before exporting. On import, decoding is
       automatically performed before the data is given to the import() callback if any.

       This function may only be called from within the export() callback passed to
       hwloc_topology_set_userdata_export_callback().

       The name must be made of printable characters for export to XML string attributes.

       The function does not take care of portability issues if the export may be reimported on a different
       architecture.

       Returns
           0 on success.

           -1 with errno set to EINVAL if a non-printable character is passed in name.

   void hwloc_free_xmlbuffer (hwloc_topology_t topology, char * xmlbuffer)
       Free a buffer allocated by hwloc_topology_export_xmlbuffer()

   int hwloc_topology_export_xml (hwloc_topology_t topology, const char * xmlpath, unsigned long flags)
       Export the topology into an XML file. This file may be loaded later through hwloc_topology_set_xml().

       By default, the latest export format is used, which means older hwloc releases (e.g. v1.x) will not be
       able to import it. Exporting to v1.x specific XML format is possible using flag
       HWLOC_TOPOLOGY_EXPORT_XML_FLAG_V1 but it may miss some details about the topology. If there is any chance
       that the exported file may ever be imported back by a process using hwloc 1.x, one should consider
       detecting it at runtime and using the corresponding export format.

       flags is a OR'ed set of hwloc_topology_export_xml_flags_e.

       Returns
           0 on success, or -1 on error.

       Note
           See also hwloc_topology_set_userdata_export_callback() for exporting application-specific object
           userdata.

           The topology-specific userdata pointer is ignored when exporting to XML.

           Only printable characters may be exported to XML string attributes. Any other character, especially
           any non-ASCII character, will be silently dropped.

           If name is '-', the XML output is sent to the standard output.

   int hwloc_topology_export_xmlbuffer (hwloc_topology_t topology, char ** xmlbuffer, int * buflen, unsigned
       long flags)
       Export the topology into a newly-allocated XML memory buffer. xmlbuffer is allocated by the callee and
       should be freed with hwloc_free_xmlbuffer() later in the caller.

       This memory buffer may be loaded later through hwloc_topology_set_xmlbuffer().

       By default, the latest export format is used, which means older hwloc releases (e.g. v1.x) will not be
       able to import it. Exporting to v1.x specific XML format is possible using flag
       HWLOC_TOPOLOGY_EXPORT_XML_FLAG_V1 but it may miss some details about the topology. If there is any chance
       that the exported buffer may ever be imported back by a process using hwloc 1.x, one should consider
       detecting it at runtime and using the corresponding export format.

       The returned buffer ends with a \0 that is included in the returned length.

       flags is a OR'ed set of hwloc_topology_export_xml_flags_e.

       Returns
           0 on success, or -1 on error.

       Note
           See also hwloc_topology_set_userdata_export_callback() for exporting application-specific object
           userdata.

           The topology-specific userdata pointer is ignored when exporting to XML.

           Only printable characters may be exported to XML string attributes. Any other character, especially
           any non-ASCII character, will be silently dropped.

   void hwloc_topology_set_userdata_export_callback (hwloc_topology_t topology, void(*)(void *reserved,
       hwloc_topology_t topology, hwloc_obj_t obj) export_cb)
       Set the application-specific callback for exporting object userdata. The object userdata pointer is not
       exported to XML by default because hwloc does not know what it contains.

       This function lets applications set export_cb to a callback function that converts this opaque userdata
       into an exportable string.

       export_cb is invoked during XML export for each object whose userdata pointer is not NULL. The callback
       should use hwloc_export_obj_userdata() or hwloc_export_obj_userdata_base64() to actually export something
       to XML (possibly multiple times per object).

       export_cb may be set to NULL if userdata should not be exported to XML.

       Note
           The topology-specific userdata pointer is ignored when exporting to XML.

   void hwloc_topology_set_userdata_import_callback (hwloc_topology_t topology, void(*)(hwloc_topology_t
       topology, hwloc_obj_t obj, const char *name, const void *buffer, size_t length) import_cb)
       Set the application-specific callback for importing userdata. On XML import, userdata is ignored by
       default because hwloc does not know how to store it in memory.

       This function lets applications set import_cb to a callback function that will get the XML-stored
       userdata and store it in the object as expected by the application.

       import_cb is called during hwloc_topology_load() as many times as hwloc_export_obj_userdata() was called
       during export. The topology is not entirely setup yet. Object attributes are ready to consult, but links
       between objects are not.

       import_cb may be NULL if userdata should be ignored during import.

       Note
           buffer contains length characters followed by a null byte ('\0').

           This function should be called before hwloc_topology_load().

           The topology-specific userdata pointer is ignored when importing from XML.
