Actually if you create func:

create function p1() returns INTEGER DETERMINISTIC NO SQL return @p1;
and view:

create view h_parm as
select * from sw_hardware_big where unit_id = p1() ;
Then you can call a view with a parameter:

select s.* from (select @p1:=12 p) parm , h_parm s;
I hope it helps.

DROP FUNCTION IF EXISTS `PKey`;

CREATE DEFINER = `root`@`localhost` FUNCTION `PKey`(`aPKey` bigint)
 RETURNS bigint(30)
BEGIN
	RETURN aPKey;
END;

CREATE 
VIEW `VAnimal`AS 
SELECT
animal.id,
animal.name
FROM
animal
WHERE
animal.id = PKey() ;
