一、平台总线设备驱动模型
Linux驱动程序开始基于“平台总线设备驱动”模型,把驱动程序分为2边:
- 左边注册一个platform_driver结构体,里面是比较固定、通用的代码
- 右边注册一个platform_device结构体,里面是硬件资源
- 可以通过c文件注册platform_device
- 也可以通过设备树创建节点,内核解析设备树时注册platform_device
二、数据结构
SPI子系统设计2类硬件:SPI控制器、SPI设备
SPI控制器有驱动程序,提供SPI的传输能力
SPI设备也有自己的驱动程序,提供SPI设备的访问能力:
- 知道怎么访问这个设备,知道这个设备的数据什么含义
- 调用SPI控制器的函数来收发数据
2.1 SPI控制器数据结构
相关的源码include\linux\spi\spi.h

struct device dev;

/* other than negative (== assign one dynamically), bus_num is fully
* board-specific. usually that simplifies to being SOC-specific.

* and one board's schematics might show it using SPI-2. software
* would normally use bus_num=2 for that controller.

Linux中使用结构体描述SPI控制器,其中最重要的是transfer函数,它用来手法数据的函数。

* - ...
*/

三、SPI框架
SPI控制器是platform框架下的,通过对比"spi-gpio"关键字,匹配到spi_master设备。
然后在probe函数中,解析设备树的子节点。生成spi_device
3.1 SPI控制器驱动程序
SPI控制器可以基于平台总线设备驱动模型来实现:
- 在设备树里描述SPI控制器的硬件信息,在设备树子节点里描述挂在下面的SPI设备信息
- 在platform_dirver中提供一个probe函数
- 它会注册一个spi_master
- 解析设备树子节点,创建spi_device结构体
3.2 SPI设备驱动程序
类似于平台总线驱动模型,Linux有一个SPI总线设备驱动模型
- 左边是spi_driver,使用C文件实现,里面有id_table表示能支持哪些SPI设备,有probe函数
- 右边是spi_device,用来描述SPI设备,比如它的片选引脚、频率
- 可以来自设备树:比如由SPI控制器驱动程序解析设备树后创建、注册spi_device
- 可以来自C文件:比如使用spi_register_board_info创建、注册spi_device
