An update to the Solaris Writing Device Drivers guide is in the works. This
document will describe how to use DDI functions to generate events already
present in the registry and diagnose common IO-related faults (also present in
the event registry).

This project will export the fault management registry of event
specifications and diagnosis article content. The initial delivery to
the OpenSolaris community will include the registry contents and

The initial target audience of this project is system administrators and
developers who want a listing of the possible fault diagnosis messages
and the event class and payload specifications.
...
The OpenSolaris event registry source will be regularly updated to
coincide
with updates to message IDs at http:///sun.com/msg. Community
contributions
to the event registry source will be permitted and sponsored for
developers
contributing fault management error handling and diagnosis software for
hardware and software components that are FMA capable and aware.
+1 from me. Any news on when the programmer's reference
manual might be made available?
cheers,
