在前面的博客中我们已经介绍了plaform总线设备驱动模型、I2C总线设备驱动模型,而本文要介绍的SPI总线设备驱动模型与I2C总线设备驱动模型相比,大体框架是一样,他们都是实际的总线。
- SPI控制器驱动程序叫做spi_master(spi_controller),主要提供transfer函数,进行SPI协议的数据传输;spi_master驱动也是基于platform模型的,注册spi_master时也会扫描一个链表进行SPI从设备的注册,这和I2C适配器驱动基本一致;
- SPI设备驱动,相比于I2C设备驱动,需要提供更多的硬件信息,设备名称、片选信号、最大传输速率、模式、中断号等,在driver里则使用spi_read、spi_writer 等函数,最终也会调用到 master->transfer 函数进行发送接收。
在通信协议-SPI小节,我们已经对SPI协议进行了详细的介绍,并在Mini2440裸机开发之SPI(OLED SSD1306)小节中介绍了通过SPI协议去点亮OLED。在这一节将会学习SPI总线设备驱动模型。
一、SPI驱动框架
1.1 SPI框架
SPI总线设备驱动模型和我们之前介绍的I2C总线设备驱动模型类似,它由SPI核心、SPI总线驱动(或者说SPI控制器驱动、SPI主机驱动)、SPI设备驱动组成。
对于linux系统来说,支持各式各样的SoC,并且还想要支持各种SPI硬件芯片,就必须将一些公共的部分抽离出来,这样就抽象出了:
- spi_device:描述具体的SPI设备,每个spi_device对应一个实际的SPI设备,比如NRF24L01、SSD1306 OLED等;
- spi driver:描述一个SPI设备驱动,每个spi_driver描述一种SPI设备的驱动;
- spi master(controller):描述SoC的一个SPI控制器;
- spi transfer:SPI通信算法,用于操作实际的SPI控制器,产生 SPI硬件波形;
在一个SoC上可能有多条SPI总线,一条总线对应一个SPI总线驱动,每一条总线上又可以接多个SPI设备。
1.1.1 SPI核心
SPI核心层是linux内核用来维护和管理SPI的核心部分。SPI核心层提供接口函数,允许一个spi_master、spi_driver和spi_device初始化时在SPI核心层中注册,以及退出时进行卸载,同时还提供了SPI总线读写访问的接口。
1.1.2 SPI总线驱动
SPI总线驱动包含了SPI控制器数据结构spi_master、SPI通信算法spi_transfer和控制SPI控制器产生通信信号的函数。
经由SPI总线驱动的代码,我们可以控制SP控制器以主控方式产生片选信号、读写周期等。
1.1.3 SPI设备驱动
SPI设备驱动主要包含了数据结构spi_driver和spi_device,我们需要根据具体设备实现其中的成员函数。
1.2 目录结构
linux内核将SPI驱动相关的代码放在drivers/spi目录下,这下面的文件还是比较多的,我们大概了解一下即可。
比如有保存SoC厂家提供的SPI控制器驱动相关的文件,比如spi-stm32.c、 spi-s3c24xx.c、spi-s3c64xx.c等。
SPI核心功能文件spi.c,实现了SPI总线的初始化、注册和控制器添加和注销等相关工作。
二、SPI总线注册
在linux驱动移植-platform总线设备驱动中我们已经介绍了platfrom总线的注册流程,SPI总线类型注册和platfrom总线注册类似。
2.1 SPI总线类型定义
在linux 设备模型中,总线类型由bus_type结构表示,我们所用的 I2C、SPI、USB 都是用这个结构体来定义的。该结构体定义在 include/linux/device.h文件中:
/**
* struct bus_type - The bus type of the device
*
* @name: The name of the bus.
* @dev_name: Used for subsystems to enumerate devices like ("foo%u", dev->id).
* @dev_root: Default device to use as the parent.
* @bus_groups: Default attributes of the bus.
* @dev_groups: Default attributes of the devices on the bus.
* @drv_groups: Default attributes of the device drivers on the bus.
* @match: Called, perhaps multiple times, whenever a new device or driver
* is added for this bus. It should return a positive value if the
* given device can be handled by the given driver and zero
* otherwise. It may also return error code if determining that
* the driver supports the device is not possible. In case of
* -EPROBE_DEFER it will queue the device for deferred probing.
* @uevent: Called when a device is added, removed, or a few other things
* that generate uevents to add the environment variables.
* @probe: Called when a new device or driver add to this bus, and callback
* the specific driver's probe to initial the matched device.
* @remove: Called when a device removed from this bus.
* @shutdown: Called at shut-down time to quiesce the device.
*
* @online: Called to put the device back online (after offlining it).
* @offline: Called to put the device offline for hot-removal. May fail.
*
* @suspend: Called when a device on this bus wants to go to sleep mode.
* @resume: Called to bring a device on this bus out of sleep mode.
* @num_vf: Called to find out how many virtual functions a device on this
* bus supports.
* @dma_configure: Called to setup DMA configuration on a device on
* this bus.
* @pm: Power management operations of this bus, callback the specific
* device driver's pm-ops.
* @iommu_ops: IOMMU specific operations for this bus, used to attach IOMMU
* driver implementations to a bus and allow the driver to do
* bus-specific setup
* @p: The private data of the driver core, only the driver core can
* touch this.
* @lock_key: Lock class key for use by the lock validator
* @need_parent_lock: When probing or removing a device on this bus, the
* device core should lock the device's parent.
*
* A bus is a channel between the processor and one or more devices. For the
* purposes of the device model, all devices are connected via a bus, even if
* it is an internal, virtual, "platform" bus. Buses can plug into each other.
* A USB controller is usually a PCI device, for example. The device model
* represents the actual connections between buses and the devices they control.
* A bus is represented by the bus_type structure. It contains the name, the
* default attributes, the bus' methods, PM operations, and the driver core's
* private data.
*/
struct bus_type {
const char *name;
const char *dev_name;
struct device *dev_root;
const struct attribute_group **bus_groups;
const struct attribute_group **dev_groups;
const struct attribute_group **drv_groups;
int (*match)(struct device *dev, struct device_driver *drv);
int (*uevent)(struct device *dev, struct kobj_uevent_env *env);
int (*probe)(struct device *dev);
int (*remove)(struct device *dev);
void (*shutdown)(struct device *dev);
int (*online)(struct device *dev);
int (*offline)(struct device *dev);
int (*suspend)(struct device *dev, pm_message_t state);
int (*resume)(struct device *dev);
int (*num_vf)(struct device *dev);
int (*dma_configure)(struct device *dev);
const struct dev_pm_ops *pm;
const struct iommu_ops *iommu_ops;
struct subsys_private *p;
struct lock_class_key lock_key;
bool need_parent_lock;
};
其中部分字段的含义如下:
- name:总线名称;
- bus_groups:总线属性;
- dev_groups:该总线上所有设备的默认属性;
- drv_groups:该总线上所有驱动的默认属性;
- match:当有新的设备或驱动添加到总线上时match函数被调用,如果设备和驱动可以匹配,返回0;
- uevent:当一个设备添加、移除或添加环境变量时,函数调用;
- probe:当有新设备或驱动添加时,probe函数调用,并且回调该驱动的probe函数来初始化相关联的设备;
- remove:设备移除时调用remove函数;
- shutdown:设备关机时调用shutdown函数;
- suspend:设备进入睡眠时调用suspend函数;
- resume:设备唤醒时调用resume函数;
- pm:总线的电源管理选项,并回调设备驱动的电源管理模块;
- p: 驱动核心的私有数据,只有驱动核心才可以访问。使用struct subsys_private可以将struct bus_type中的部分细节屏蔽掉,利于外界使用bus_type;struct driver_private和struct device_private都有类似的功能。
spi_bus_type是 bus_type 类型的全局变量,这个变量已经被linux内核赋值好了,其结构体成员对应的函数也已经在内核里面写好,定义在drivers/spi/spi.c:
struct bus_type spi_bus_type = {
.name = "spi",
.dev_groups = spi_dev_groups,
.match = spi_match_device,
.uevent = spi_uevent,
};
这里我们重点关注SPI匹配函数spi_device_match即可。
2.2 SPI设备和驱动匹配
spi_bus_type中的spi_match_device就是我们常说的做驱动和设备匹配的函数,不同的总线对应的match函数肯定不一样,这个我们不用管,内核都会写好。我们所用的SPI总线对应的match函数是spi_match_device函数,该函数定义在drivers/spi/spi.c:
static int spi_match_device(struct device *dev, struct device_driver *drv)
{
const struct spi_device *spi = to_spi_device(dev);
const struct spi_driver *sdrv = to_spi_driver(drv);
/* Check override first, and if set, only use the named driver */
if (spi->driver_override)
return strcmp(spi->driver_override, drv->name) == 0;
/* Attempt an OF style match */
if (of_driver_match_device(dev, drv))
return 1;
/* Then try ACPI */
if (acpi_driver_match_device(dev, drv))
return 1;
if (sdrv->id_table)
return !!spi_match_id(sdrv->id_table, spi);
return strcmp(spi->modalias, drv->name) == 0;
}
该函数有两个参数:设备和设备驱动,该函数主要做了一下事情:
- 将设备转为SPI从设备类型;
- 将驱动转为SPI驱动类型;
- 调用of_driver_match_device进行设备树OF类型匹配;
- 调用acpi_driver_match_device进行ACPI类型匹配;
- 如果设置值了sdrv->id_table,进行id_table匹配;
- 最后比较spi的驱动name和spi设备里面的modalias信息;
通过对上面匹配函数的一个简单分析,我们知道匹配函数做匹配的顺序是先匹配设备树,然后匹配id_table表,最后匹配spi的驱动name和spi设备里面的modalias:
/* modalias support makes "modprobe $MODALIAS" new-style hotplug work,
* and the sysfs version makes coldplug work too.
*/
static const struct spi_device_id *spi_match_id(const struct spi_device_id *id,
const struct spi_device *sdev)
{
while (id->name[0]) {
if (!strcmp(sdev->modalias, id->name))
return id;
id++;
}
return NULL;
}
对于支持设备树的Linux版本,我们一上来做设备树匹配就完事,不支持设备树时,我们就得定义SPI设备,再用id_tabale表或name匹配,一般情况下都是选用name匹配。
2.3 SPI总线注册
SPI子系统的初始化是由spi_init函数完成的。SPI总线以模块的方式注册到内核。spi_init定义在drivers/spi/spi.c文件中:
static int __init spi_init(void)
{
int status;
buf = kmalloc(SPI_BUFSIZ, GFP_KERNEL);
if (!buf) {
status = -ENOMEM;
goto err0;
}
status = bus_register(&spi_bus_type); // 注册总线 在/sys/bus目录下创建spi目录
if (status < 0)
goto err1;
status = class_register(&spi_master_class); // 在/sys/class目录下创建spi_master目录
if (status < 0)
goto err2;
if (IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_SPI_SLAVE)) {
status = class_register(&spi_slave_class);
if (status < 0)
goto err3;
}
if (IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_OF_DYNAMIC))
WARN_ON(of_reconfig_notifier_register(&spi_of_notifier));
if (IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_ACPI))
WARN_ON(acpi_reconfig_notifier_register(&spi_acpi_notifier));
return 0;
err3:
class_unregister(&spi_master_class);
err2:
bus_unregister(&spi_bus_type);
err1:
kfree(buf);
buf = NULL;
err0:
return status;
}
我们重点关注bus_register总线注册函数,传入的参数就是我们上面介绍的spi_bus_type。
bus_register函数调用后,就会在用户空间/sys/bus目录下生成具有总线名称的目录,同时在该目录下创建devices、drivers文件夹,创建uevent、drivers_autoprobe、drivers_probe等文件。
执行如下命令:
/sys/bus/spi/devices里用来存放的是SPI设备链接,/sys/bus/spi/drivers里用来存放的是SPI驱动链接。需要注意的是在spi_bus_type总线链表里面存放的除了SPI从设备,还有SPI控制器。
从其他博文找到一张总线创建的说明图,下图是foo总线创建的过程:
三、SPI核心数据结构
学习SPI驱动,首先要了解驱动框架涉及到的数据结构,知道每个数据结构以及成员的含义之后,再去看源码就容易了。
3.1 struct spi_controller
struct spi_controller抽象了控制器硬件,在SoC中的指的就是内部SPI控制器,当向SPI核心层注册一个SPI控制器时就需要提供这样的一个结构体变量。它的定义在 include/linux/spi/spi.h 文件,如下:
/**
* struct spi_controller - interface to SPI master or slave controller
* @dev: device interface to this driver
* @list: link with the global spi_controller list
* @bus_num: board-specific (and often SoC-specific) identifier for a
* given SPI controller.
* @num_chipselect: chipselects are used to distinguish individual
* SPI slaves, and are numbered from zero to num_chipselects.
* each slave has a chipselect signal, but it's common that not
* every chipselect is connected to a slave.
* @dma_alignment: SPI controller constraint on DMA buffers alignment.
* @mode_bits: flags understood by this controller driver
* @bits_per_word_mask: A mask indicating which values of bits_per_word are
* supported by the driver. Bit n indicates that a bits_per_word n+1 is
* supported. If set, the SPI core will reject any transfer with an
* unsupported bits_per_word. If not set, this value is simply ignored,
* and it's up to the individual driver to perform any validation.
* @min_speed_hz: Lowest supported transfer speed
* @max_speed_hz: Highest supported transfer speed
* @flags: other constraints relevant to this driver
* @slave: indicates that this is an SPI slave controller
* @max_transfer_size: function that returns the max transfer size for
* a &spi_device; may be %NULL, so the default %SIZE_MAX will be used.
* @max_message_size: function that returns the max message size for
* a &spi_device; may be %NULL, so the default %SIZE_MAX will be used.
* @io_mutex: mutex for physical bus access
* @bus_lock_spinlock: spinlock for SPI bus locking
* @bus_lock_mutex: mutex for exclusion of multiple callers
* @bus_lock_flag: indicates that the SPI bus is locked for exclusive use
* @setup: updates the device mode and clocking records used by a
* device's SPI controller; protocol code may call this. This
* must fail if an unrecognized or unsupported mode is requested.
* It's always safe to call this unless transfers are pending on
* the device whose settings are being modified.
* @set_cs_timing: optional hook for SPI devices to request SPI master
* controller for configuring specific CS setup time, hold time and inactive
* delay interms of clock counts
* @transfer: adds a message to the controller's transfer queue.
* @cleanup: frees controller-specific state
* @can_dma: determine whether this controller supports DMA
* @queued: whether this controller is providing an internal message queue
* @kworker: thread struct for message pump
* @kworker_task: pointer to task for message pump kworker thread
* @pump_messages: work struct for scheduling work to the message pump
* @queue_lock: spinlock to syncronise access to message queue
* @queue: message queue
* @idling: the device is entering idle state
* @cur_msg: the currently in-flight message
* @cur_msg_prepared: spi_prepare_message was called for the currently
* in-flight message
* @cur_msg_mapped: message has been mapped for DMA
* @xfer_completion: used by core transfer_one_message()
* @busy: message pump is busy
* @running: message pump is running
* @rt: whether this queue is set to run as a realtime task
* @auto_runtime_pm: the core should ensure a runtime PM reference is held
* while the hardware is prepared, using the parent
* device for the spidev
* @max_dma_len: Maximum length of a DMA transfer for the device.
* @prepare_transfer_hardware: a message will soon arrive from the queue
* so the subsystem requests the driver to prepare the transfer hardware
* by issuing this call
* @transfer_one_message: the subsystem calls the driver to transfer a single
* message while queuing transfers that arrive in the meantime. When the
* driver is finished with this message, it must call
* spi_finalize_current_message() so the subsystem can issue the next
* message
* @unprepare_transfer_hardware: there are currently no more messages on the
* queue so the subsystem notifies the driver that it may relax the
* hardware by issuing this call
*
* @set_cs: set the logic level of the chip select line. May be called
* from interrupt context.
* @prepare_message: set up the controller to transfer a single message,
* for example doing DMA mapping. Called from threaded
* context.
* @transfer_one: transfer a single spi_transfer.
* - return 0 if the transfer is finished,
* - return 1 if the transfer is still in progress. When
* the driver is finished with this transfer it must
* call spi_finalize_current_transfer() so the subsystem
* can issue the next transfer. Note: transfer_one and
* transfer_one_message are mutually exclusive; when both
* are set, the generic subsystem does not call your
* transfer_one callback.
* @handle_err: the subsystem calls the driver to handle an error that occurs
* in the generic implementation of transfer_one_message().
* @mem_ops: optimized/dedicated operations for interactions with SPI memory.
* This field is optional and should only be implemented if the
* controller has native support for memory like operations.
* @unprepare_message: undo any work done by prepare_message().
* @slave_abort: abort the ongoing transfer request on an SPI slave controller
* @cs_gpios: LEGACY: array of GPIO descs to use as chip select lines; one per
* CS number. Any individual value may be -ENOENT for CS lines that
* are not GPIOs (driven by the SPI controller itself). Use the cs_gpiods
* in new drivers.
* @cs_gpiods: Array of GPIO descs to use as chip select lines; one per CS
* number. Any individual value may be NULL for CS lines that
* are not GPIOs (driven by the SPI controller itself).
* @use_gpio_descriptors: Turns on the code in the SPI core to parse and grab
* GPIO descriptors rather than using global GPIO numbers grabbed by the
* driver. This will fill in @cs_gpiods and @cs_gpios should not be used,
* and SPI devices will have the cs_gpiod assigned rather than cs_gpio.
* @statistics: statistics for the spi_controller
* @dma_tx: DMA transmit channel
* @dma_rx: DMA receive channel
* @dummy_rx: dummy receive buffer for full-duplex devices
* @dummy_tx: dummy transmit buffer for full-duplex devices
* @fw_translate_cs: If the boot firmware uses different numbering scheme
* what Linux expects, this optional hook can be used to translate
* between the two.
*
* Each SPI controller can communicate with one or more @spi_device
* children. These make a small bus, sharing MOSI, MISO and SCK signals
* but not chip select signals. Each device may be configured to use a
* different clock rate, since those shared signals are ignored unless
* the chip is selected.
*
* The driver for an SPI controller manages access to those devices through
* a queue of spi_message transactions, copying data between CPU memory and
* an SPI slave device. For each such message it queues, it calls the
* message's completion function when the transaction completes.
