MDS Name Space and Directory Structures

The Module Directory Service leverages name space and types defined by the CDSA Data Storage Library Services API. Even though MDS is a standalone service, application developer can use a similar programming paradigm to access MDS-managed databases and DL module-managed databases.

MDS defines several new data types in addition to those defined by CDSA's Data Storage Library Services. The new types define names for the MDS relations and the records stored in those relations. The MDS-specific names and data structures are defined below.

MDS Name Space

A relation identifier, also referred to as CSSM_DB_RECORDTYPE, identifies an MDS relation. MDS relation identifiers are allocated from the CSSM_DB_RECORDTYPE name space. The MDS system reserves and uses the following name space definitions.


/*  MDS predefined values for a 16K name space */
#define CSSM_DB_RELATIONID_MDS_START (0x40000000)
#define CSSM_DB_RELATIONID_MDS_END (0x40004000)

Object Directory

This constant defines the programmatic name for type of records stored in the MDS Object Directory database.


#define MDS_OBJECT_RECORDTYPE (CSSM_DB_RELATIONID_MDS_START)

CDSA Directory

These constants define the programmatic names for the record types stored in the MDS CDSA Directory database.

Data Structure

MDS defines a small number of data structures that are visible to the user through the MDS APIs. MDS type definitions are dependent on CDSA type definitions. These type are re-qualified as MDS data types to separate the MDS type space from CSSM and DL name spaces.

MDS_HANDLE

This defines an opaque handle used to identify the MDS context in which a user can receive MDS services.


typedef CSSM_DL_HANDLE     MDS_HANDLE;

MDS_DB_HANDLE

This defines an opaque handle used to identify an MDS-managed database.


typedef CSSM_DL_DB_HANDLE    MDS_DB_HANDLE;

MDS_FUNC

This structure defines a table of function pointer returned by MDS to a user when a service context has been established between MDS and a user. The user accesses MDS services through these function pointers.
