USB Mass Storage

如标题所示,我们开始分析USB Mass Storage的架构.

那么driver的起点是哪里?

LinuxSource/drivers/usb/storage/usb.c

module_init(usb_stor_init);

这是一切的起点,好了现在要开始逐行分析usb_stor_init()这个函数了.

static int __init usb_stor_init(void)
{
	int retval;

	pr_info("Initializing USB Mass Storage driver...\n");

	/* register the driver, return usb_register return code if error */
	retval = usb_register(&usb_storage_driver);
	if (retval == 0) {
		pr_info("USB Mass Storage support registered.\n");
		usb_usual_set_present(USB_US_TYPE_STOR);
	}
	return retval;
}

这个函数非常简单,注册了USB Mass Storage 驱动.如果注册成功了就调用usb_usual_set_present(). 

先看下usb_storage_driver.

/***********************************************************************
 * Initialization and registration
 ***********************************************************************/

static struct usb_driver usb_storage_driver = {
	.name =		"usb-storage",
	.probe =	storage_probe,
	.disconnect =	usb_stor_disconnect,
	.suspend =	usb_stor_suspend,
	.resume =	usb_stor_resume,
	.reset_resume =	usb_stor_reset_resume,
	.pre_reset =	usb_stor_pre_reset,
	.post_reset =	usb_stor_post_reset,
	.id_table =	usb_storage_usb_ids,
	.supports_autosuspend = 1,
	.soft_unbind =	1,
};

好了,开始分析usb_register()

static inline int usb_register(struct usb_driver *driver)
{
	return usb_register_driver(driver, THIS_MODULE, KBUILD_MODNAME);
}

这个函数又调用了usb_register_driver()

继续向下走

/**
 * usb_register_driver - register a USB interface driver
 * @new_driver: USB operations for the interface driver
 * @owner: module owner of this driver.
 * @mod_name: module name string
 *
 * Registers a USB interface driver with the USB core.  The list of
 * unattached interfaces will be rescanned whenever a new driver is
 * added, allowing the new driver to attach to any recognized interfaces.
 * Returns a negative error code on failure and 0 on success.
 *
 * NOTE: if you want your driver to use the USB major number, you must call
 * usb_register_dev() to enable that functionality.  This function no longer
 * takes care of that.
 */
int usb_register_driver(struct usb_driver *new_driver, struct module *owner,
			const char *mod_name)
{
	int retval = 0;

	if (usb_disabled())
		return -ENODEV;

	new_driver->drvwrap.for_devices = 0;
	new_driver->drvwrap.driver.name = (char *) new_driver->name;
	new_driver->drvwrap.driver.bus = &usb_bus_type;
	new_driver->drvwrap.driver.probe = usb_probe_interface;
	new_driver->drvwrap.driver.remove = usb_unbind_interface;
	new_driver->drvwrap.driver.owner = owner;
	new_driver->drvwrap.driver.mod_name = mod_name;
	spin_lock_init(&new_driver->dynids.lock);
	INIT_LIST_HEAD(&new_driver->dynids.list);

	retval = driver_register(&new_driver->drvwrap.driver);
	if (retval)
		goto out;

	usbfs_update_special();

	retval = usb_create_newid_file(new_driver);
	if (retval)
		goto out_newid;

	retval = usb_create_removeid_file(new_driver);
	if (retval)
		goto out_removeid;

	pr_info("%s: registered new interface driver %s\n",
			usbcore_name, new_driver->name);

out:
	return retval;

out_removeid:
	usb_remove_newid_file(new_driver);
out_newid:
	driver_unregister(&new_driver->drvwrap.driver);

	printk(KERN_ERR "%s: error %d registering interface "
			"	driver %s\n",
			usbcore_name, retval, new_driver->name);
	goto out;
}

前面一段的赋值就不用多说了,然后向系统注册driver.

/**
 * driver_register - register driver with bus
 * @drv: driver to register
 *
 * We pass off most of the work to the bus_add_driver() call,
 * since most of the things we have to do deal with the bus
 * structures.
 */
int driver_register(struct device_driver *drv)
{
	int ret;
	struct device_driver *other;

	BUG_ON(!drv->bus->p);

	if ((drv->bus->probe && drv->probe) ||
	    (drv->bus->remove && drv->remove) ||
	    (drv->bus->shutdown && drv->shutdown))
		printk(KERN_WARNING "Driver '%s' needs updating - please use "
			"bus_type methods\n", drv->name);

	other = driver_find(drv->name, drv->bus);
	if (other) {
		put_driver(other);
		printk(KERN_ERR "Error: Driver '%s' is already registered, "
			"aborting...\n", drv->name);
		return -EBUSY;
	}

	ret = bus_add_driver(drv);
	if (ret)
		return ret;
	ret = driver_add_groups(drv, drv->groups);
	if (ret)
		bus_remove_driver(drv);
	return ret;
}

函数中的判断语句是不会执行到的.为什么呢?

struct bus_type usb_bus_type = {
	.name =		"usb",
	.match =	usb_device_match,
	.uevent =	usb_uevent,
#ifdef CONFIG_USB_SUSPEND
	.pm =		&usb_bus_pm_ops,
#endif
};

然后在bus上寻找usb-storage有没有这个驱动,那么很显然是没有的了.既然没有就向bus上注册这个驱动了.

也就是bus_add_driver().
