Hi,

I'm using VxWorks 6.9, and I'm trying to format a disk using rawsFsLib.

My understanding leads me to do :

fd=open("/ata0:1", 2, 0777)

value=12 = 0xc

ioctl(12, 5, 0)

value = -1 = 0xffffffff

5 stands for FIODISKFORMAT in ioLib.h. I expected to format /ata0:1, wich if the the first partition of my sata disk.

Could someone help me and explain me why I get a "-1" value at the output of ioctl ?


Thanks in advance for your help.

Regards
Fabrice
