Device Drivers
|
||||
|
||||
See the kerneldoc for the struct device_driver.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Allocation
|
||||
~~~~~~~~~~
|
||||
|
||||
Device drivers are statically allocated structures. Though there may
|
||||
be multiple devices in a system that a driver supports, struct
|
||||
device_driver represents the driver as a whole (not a particular
|
||||
device instance).
|
||||
|
||||
Initialization
|
||||
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
||||
|
||||
The driver must initialize at least the name and bus fields. It should
|
||||
also initialize the devclass field (when it arrives), so it may obtain
|
||||
the proper linkage internally. It should also initialize as many of
|
||||
the callbacks as possible, though each is optional.
|
||||
|
||||
Declaration
|
||||
~~~~~~~~~~~
|
||||
|
||||
As stated above, struct device_driver objects are statically
|
||||
allocated. Below is an example declaration of the eepro100
|
||||
driver. This declaration is hypothetical only; it relies on the driver
|
||||
being converted completely to the new model.
|
||||
|
||||
static struct device_driver eepro100_driver = {
|
||||
.name = "eepro100",
|
||||
.bus = &pci_bus_type,
|
||||
|
||||
.probe = eepro100_probe,
|
||||
.remove = eepro100_remove,
|
||||
.suspend = eepro100_suspend,
|
||||
.resume = eepro100_resume,
|
||||
};
|
||||
|
||||
Most drivers will not be able to be converted completely to the new
|
||||
model because the bus they belong to has a bus-specific structure with
|
||||
bus-specific fields that cannot be generalized.
|
||||
|
||||
The most common example of this are device ID structures. A driver
|
||||
typically defines an array of device IDs that it supports. The format
|
||||
of these structures and the semantics for comparing device IDs are
|
||||
completely bus-specific. Defining them as bus-specific entities would
|
||||
sacrifice type-safety, so we keep bus-specific structures around.
|
||||
|
||||
Bus-specific drivers should include a generic struct device_driver in
|
||||
the definition of the bus-specific driver. Like this:
|
||||
|
||||
struct pci_driver {
|
||||
const struct pci_device_id *id_table;
|
||||
struct device_driver driver;
|
||||
};
|
||||
|
||||
A definition that included bus-specific fields would look like
|
||||
(using the eepro100 driver again):
|
||||
|
||||
static struct pci_driver eepro100_driver = {
|
||||
.id_table = eepro100_pci_tbl,
|
||||
.driver = {
|
||||
.name = "eepro100",
|
||||
.bus = &pci_bus_type,
|
||||
.probe = eepro100_probe,
|
||||
.remove = eepro100_remove,
|
||||
.suspend = eepro100_suspend,
|
||||
.resume = eepro100_resume,
|
||||
},
|
||||
};
|
||||
|
||||
Some may find the syntax of embedded struct initialization awkward or
|
||||
even a bit ugly. So far, it's the best way we've found to do what we want...
|
||||
|
||||
Registration
|
||||
~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
||||
|
||||
int driver_register(struct device_driver * drv);
|
||||
|
||||
The driver registers the structure on startup. For drivers that have
|
||||
no bus-specific fields (i.e. don't have a bus-specific driver
|
||||
structure), they would use driver_register and pass a pointer to their
|
||||
struct device_driver object.
|
||||
|
||||
Most drivers, however, will have a bus-specific structure and will
|
||||
need to register with the bus using something like pci_driver_register.
|
||||
|
||||
It is important that drivers register their driver structure as early as
|
||||
possible. Registration with the core initializes several fields in the
|
||||
struct device_driver object, including the reference count and the
|
||||
lock. These fields are assumed to be valid at all times and may be
|
||||
used by the device model core or the bus driver.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Transition Bus Drivers
|
||||
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
||||
|
||||
By defining wrapper functions, the transition to the new model can be
|
||||
made easier. Drivers can ignore the generic structure altogether and
|
||||
let the bus wrapper fill in the fields. For the callbacks, the bus can
|
||||
define generic callbacks that forward the call to the bus-specific
|
||||
callbacks of the drivers.
|
||||
|
||||
This solution is intended to be only temporary. In order to get class
|
||||
information in the driver, the drivers must be modified anyway. Since
|
||||
converting drivers to the new model should reduce some infrastructural
|
||||
complexity and code size, it is recommended that they are converted as
|
||||
class information is added.
|
||||
|
||||
Access
|
||||
~~~~~~
|
||||
|
||||
Once the object has been registered, it may access the common fields of
|
||||
the object, like the lock and the list of devices.
|
||||
|
||||
int driver_for_each_dev(struct device_driver * drv, void * data,
|
||||
int (*callback)(struct device * dev, void * data));
|
||||
|
||||
The devices field is a list of all the devices that have been bound to
|
||||
the driver. The LDM core provides a helper function to operate on all
|
||||
the devices a driver controls. This helper locks the driver on each
|
||||
node access, and does proper reference counting on each device as it
|
||||
accesses it.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
sysfs
|
||||
~~~~~
|
||||
|
||||
When a driver is registered, a sysfs directory is created in its
|
||||
bus's directory. In this directory, the driver can export an interface
|
||||
to userspace to control operation of the driver on a global basis;
|
||||
e.g. toggling debugging output in the driver.
|
||||
|
||||
A future feature of this directory will be a 'devices' directory. This
|
||||
directory will contain symlinks to the directories of devices it
|
||||
supports.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Callbacks
|
||||
~~~~~~~~~
|
||||
|
||||
int (*probe) (struct device * dev);
|
||||
|
||||
The probe() entry is called in task context, with the bus's rwsem locked
|
||||
and the driver partially bound to the device. Drivers commonly use
|
||||
container_of() to convert "dev" to a bus-specific type, both in probe()
|
||||
and other routines. That type often provides device resource data, such
|
||||
as pci_dev.resource[] or platform_device.resources, which is used in
|
||||
addition to dev->platform_data to initialize the driver.
|
||||
|
||||
This callback holds the driver-specific logic to bind the driver to a
|
||||
given device. That includes verifying that the device is present, that
|
||||
it's a version the driver can handle, that driver data structures can
|
||||
be allocated and initialized, and that any hardware can be initialized.
|
||||
Drivers often store a pointer to their state with dev_set_drvdata().
|
||||
When the driver has successfully bound itself to that device, then probe()
|
||||
returns zero and the driver model code will finish its part of binding
|
||||
the driver to that device.
|
||||
|
||||
A driver's probe() may return a negative errno value to indicate that
|
||||
the driver did not bind to this device, in which case it should have
|
||||
released all resources it allocated.
|
||||
|
||||
int (*remove) (struct device * dev);
|
||||
|
||||
remove is called to unbind a driver from a device. This may be
|
||||
called if a device is physically removed from the system, if the
|
||||
driver module is being unloaded, during a reboot sequence, or
|
||||
in other cases.
|
||||
|
||||
It is up to the driver to determine if the device is present or
|
||||
not. It should free any resources allocated specifically for the
|
||||
device; i.e. anything in the device's driver_data field.
|
||||
|
||||
If the device is still present, it should quiesce the device and place
|
||||
it into a supported low-power state.
|
||||
|
||||
int (*suspend) (struct device * dev, pm_message_t state);
|
||||
|
||||
suspend is called to put the device in a low power state.
|
||||
|
||||
int (*resume) (struct device * dev);
|
||||
|
||||
Resume is used to bring a device back from a low power state.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Attributes
|
||||
~~~~~~~~~~
|
||||
struct driver_attribute {
|
||||
struct attribute attr;
|
||||
ssize_t (*show)(struct device_driver *driver, char *buf);
|
||||
ssize_t (*store)(struct device_driver *, const char * buf, size_t count);
|
||||
};
|
||||
|
||||
Device drivers can export attributes via their sysfs directories.
|
||||
Drivers can declare attributes using a DRIVER_ATTR macro that works
|
||||
identically to the DEVICE_ATTR macro.
|
||||
|
||||
Example:
|
||||
|
||||
DRIVER_ATTR(debug,0644,show_debug,store_debug);
|
||||
|
||||
This is equivalent to declaring:
|
||||
|
||||
struct driver_attribute driver_attr_debug;
|
||||
|
||||
This can then be used to add and remove the attribute from the
|
||||
driver's directory using:
|
||||
|
||||
int driver_create_file(struct device_driver *, const struct driver_attribute *);
|
||||
void driver_remove_file(struct device_driver *, const struct driver_attribute *);
