Linux内核——字符设备驱动

字符设备驱动的框架

设备节点：inode，类型为字符设备，记录设备号
设备号：内核确定驱动的唯一编号
cdev：字符驱动对象

register_chrdev 分析

注册 字符设备的关键是将 cdev 放到一个容器中，待后续使用。

注册设备驱动需要的操作

• 申请设备号
• 构建 cdev 结构
• 使用设备号作为键，将cdev放到 kobj_map 容器中。

  int cdev_add(struct cdev *p, dev_t dev, unsigned count)
  {
      p->dev = dev;
      p->count = count;
      return kobj_map(cdev_map, dev, count, NULL, exact_match, exact_lock, p);
  }

  struct kobj_map {
      struct probe {
          struct probe *next;
          dev_t dev;
          unsigned long range;
          struct module *owner;
          kobj_probe_t *get;
          int (*lock)(dev_t, void *);
          void *data;
      } *probes[255];
      struct mutex *lock;
  };

  int kobj_map(struct kobj_map *domain, dev_t dev, unsigned long range,
           struct module *module, kobj_probe_t *probe,
           int (*lock)(dev_t, void *), void *data)
  {
      unsigned n = MAJOR(dev + range - 1) - MAJOR(dev) + 1;  // 次设备号获得创建设备数量
      unsigned index = MAJOR(dev);      // 使用 主设备号做哈希键
      unsigned i;
      struct probe *p;

      if (n > 255)
          n = 255;

      p = kmalloc(sizeof(struct probe) * n, GFP_KERNEL);

      if (p == NULL)
          return -ENOMEM;

      for (i = 0; i < n; i++, p++) {        // 每个设备的probe复制
          p->owner = module;
          p->get = probe;
          p->lock = lock;
          p->dev = dev;
          p->range = range;
          p->data = data;      // 这里data 为 cdev
      }
      mutex_lock(domain->lock);
      for (i = 0, p -= n /* 把p复位，指向要加入的首个probe */; i < n; i++, p++, index++) {
          struct probe **s = &domain->probes[index % 255];  // probes是元素为指针的数组，s指向数组元素
          while (*s && (*s)->range < range)
              s = &(*s)->next;
          p->next = *s;    // 加入链表
          *s = p;
      }
      mutex_unlock(domain->lock);
      return 0;
  }

注册完cdev后，cdev加入cdev_map表待使用

open分析

• 根据pathname找到 inode
• 根据inode的i_flag知道是设备文件，并使用 inode->i_rdev找到驱动
• 将cdev->ops复制给 file->f_op，返回file
  open后，file->f_op就关联了驱动代码
  具体看如何通过 设备号找到 cdev 和 fops

  int chrdev_open(struct inode * inode, struct file * filp)
  {
      struct cdev *p;
      struct cdev *new = NULL;
      int ret = 0;

      spin_lock(&cdev_lock);
      p = inode->i_cdev;   // 第一次open时，p == NULL
      if (!p) {  // 第一次open
          struct kobject *kobj;
          int idx;
          spin_unlock(&cdev_lock);
          kobj = kobj_lookup(cdev_map, inode->i_rdev, &idx);  // 根据设备号找 kobj
          if (!kobj)
              return -ENXIO;
          new = container_of(kobj, struct cdev, kobj);  // struct cdev 包含 kobj 属性，偏移以获得 cdev
          spin_lock(&cdev_lock);
          p = inode->i_cdev;
          if (!p) {    
              inode->i_cdev = p = new;
              inode->i_cindex = idx;
              list_add(&inode->i_devices, &p->list);
              new = NULL;
          } else if (!cdev_get(p))
              ret = -ENXIO;
      } else if (!cdev_get(p))
          ret = -ENXIO;
      spin_unlock(&cdev_lock);
      cdev_put(new);
      if (ret)
          return ret;
      filp->f_op = fops_get(p->ops);   // 根据cdev->ops 获得 fops 记录到 file
      if (!filp->f_op) {
          cdev_put(p);
          return -ENXIO;
      }
      if (filp->f_op->open) {
          lock_kernel();
          ret = filp->f_op->open(inode,filp);  // 回调 具体驱动的 open
          unlock_kernel();
      }
      if (ret)
          cdev_put(p);
      return ret;
  }

根据 设备号获得 kobj

  struct kobject *kobj_lookup(struct kobj_map *domain, dev_t dev, int *index)
  {
      struct kobject *kobj;
      struct probe *p;
      unsigned long best = ~0UL;

  retry:
      mutex_lock(domain->lock);
      for (p = domain->probes[MAJOR(dev) % 255] /* 以主设备号做哈希键 */; p; p = p->next) {
          struct kobject *(*probe)(dev_t, int *, void *);
          struct module *owner;
          void *data;

          if (p->dev > dev || p->dev + p->range - 1 < dev)
              continue;
          if (p->range - 1 >= best)
              break;
          if (!try_module_get(p->owner))
              continue;
          owner = p->owner;
          data = p->data;
          probe = p->get;
          best = p->range - 1;
          *index = dev - p->dev;
          if (p->lock && p->lock(dev, data) < 0) {
              module_put(owner);
              continue;
          }
          mutex_unlock(domain->lock);
          kobj = probe(dev, index, data);
          /* Currently ->owner protects _only_ ->probe() itself. */
          module_put(owner);
          if (kobj)
              return kobj;  // return
          goto retry;
      }
      mutex_unlock(domain->lock);
      return NULL;
  }

read分析

可见由于open后,file->f_op 为 cdev->fops 所以，基于文件的操作都通过file->f_op就能调用驱动。

另一种写法

#include <linux/module.h>
#include <linux/file.h>
#include <linux/rtc.h>

static ssize_t rtc_read (struct file *fp, char __user *buf, size_t sz, loff_t *pos)
{
        printk("%s\n", __func__);
        return 0;
}

static ssize_t rtc_write (struct file *fp, const char __user *buf, size_t sz, loff_t *pos)
{
        printk("%s\n", __func__);
        return 0;
}

static int rtc_open (struct inode *pinode, struct file *fp)
{
        printk("%s\n", __func__);
        return 0;
}

static int rtc_release (struct inode *pinode, struct file *fp)
{
        printk("%s\n", __func__);
        return 0;
}

static const struct file_operations rtc_fops = {
        .owner = THIS_MODULE,
        .read = rtc_read,
        .write = rtc_write,
        .open = rtc_open,
        .release = rtc_release,
};

static dev_t dev;
static struct cdev *rtc_cdev;

static int __init rtc_init(void)
{
        // 构建cdev
        rtc_cdev = cdev_alloc();
        cdev_init(rtc_cdev, &rtc_fops);

        // 申请设备号
        dev = MKDEV(222, 0);
        register_chrdev_region(dev, 1, "rtc-demo");

        // 将cdev加入kobj树
        cdev_add(rtc_cdev, dev, 1);

        return 0;
}

static void __exit rtc_exit(void)
{
        // 将cdev从kobj树移除
        cdev_del(rtc_cdev);

        // 释放设备号
        unregister_chrdev_region(dev, 1);
}

module_init(rtc_init);
module_exit(rtc_exit);

动态申请设备号

主设备号高12位，次设备号低20位
设备号的转换

#define MAJOR(dev)  ((unsigned int) ((dev) >> MINORBITS))
#define MINOR(dev)  ((unsigned int) ((dev) & MINORMASK))
#define MKDEV(ma,mi)    (((ma) << MINORBITS) | (mi))

        // 申请设备号
#if 0
        dev = MKDEV(222, 0);
        register_chrdev_region(dev, 1, "rtc-demo");
#else
        alloc_chrdev_region(&dev, 0, 1, "rtc-demo");
        printk("major : %d, minor : %d\n", MAJOR(dev), MINOR(dev));
#endif

自动创建设备节点

由于动态申请设备号所以需要自动创建设备节点

udev/mdev ： 一个用户空间程序，通过扫描sysfs获得内核编号，用于创建设备节点。此外该程序还依赖 tmpfs。

为了udev获得驱动的信息，驱动必须将信息导出到sysfs，方法是 class_create , device_create

  /**
   * class_create - create a struct class structure
   * @owner: pointer to the module that is to "own" this struct class
   * @name: pointer to a string for the name of this class.
   *
   * This is used to create a struct class pointer that can then be used
   * in calls to device_create().
   *
   * Returns &struct class pointer on success, or ERR_PTR() on error.
   *
   * Note, the pointer created here is to be destroyed when finished by
   * making a call to class_destroy().
   */
  #define class_create(owner, name)       \
  ({                      \
      static struct lock_class_key __key; \
      __class_create(owner, name, &__key);    \
  })


  /**
   * device_create - creates a device and registers it with sysfs
   * @class: pointer to the struct class that this device should be registered to
   * @parent: pointer to the parent struct device of this new device, if any
   * @devt: the dev_t for the char device to be added
   * @drvdata: the data to be added to the device for callbacks
   * @fmt: string for the device's name
   *
   * This function can be used by char device classes.  A struct device
   * will be created in sysfs, registered to the specified class.
   *
   * A "dev" file will be created, showing the dev_t for the device, if
   * the dev_t is not 0,0.
   * If a pointer to a parent struct device is passed in, the newly created
   * struct device will be a child of that device in sysfs.
   * The pointer to the struct device will be returned from the call.
   * Any further sysfs files that might be required can be created using this
   * pointer.
   *
   * Returns &struct device pointer on success, or ERR_PTR() on error.
   *

运行mdev -s ，创建设备节点

填充fops

需要注意 用户空间和内核空间基于指针输入输出数据时，相关指向用户空间的指针要用 __user 描述。

填充read write

  inline static unsigned long rtc_tm_to_time(struct rtc_time_s *ptm)
  {
      return ptm->hour * 3600 + ptm->min * 60 + ptm->sec;
  }

  static ssize_t rtc_write (struct file *fp, const char __user *buf, size_t sz, loff_t *pos)
  {
      struct rtc_time_s tm;
      int len = sizeof(tm);

      if ( !access_ok(buf, len))
          return -1;
      if (copy_from_user(&tm, buf, len) != 0) {
          printk("rtc_write failed\n");
          return -1;
      }
      regs->RTCLR = rtc_tm_to_time(&tm);

      return len;
  }

  static void rtc_time_s_trans(unsigned long n, struct rtc_time_s *p)
  {
      p->hour = (n % 86400) / 3600;
      p->min = (n % 3600) / 60;
      p->sec = (n % 60);
  }

  static ssize_t rtc_read (struct file *fp, char __user *buf, size_t sz, loff_t *pos)
  {
      unsigned long cur_time = regs->RTCDR;
      struct rtc_time_s tm;
      int len = sizeof(tm);

      rtc_time_s_trans(cur_time, &tm);
      if (copy_to_user(buf, &tm, len) != 0) {
          printk("rtc_read error\n");
          return -1;
      }

      return len;
  }

ioctl

  struct file_operations {
      ...
      long (*unlocked_ioctl) (struct file *, unsigned int, unsigned long);
      long (*compat_ioctl) (struct file *, unsigned int, unsigned long);    // 需要兼容不同位宽时使用
  };

ioctl 对应两种回调，常用 unlocked_ioctl

传参都为

long (*unlocked_ioctl) (struct file *fp, unsigned int cmd, unsigned long arg);

其中cmd使用ioctl的宏设置

#define _IO(type,nr)        _IOC(_IOC_NONE,(type),(nr),0)
#define _IOR(type,nr,size)  _IOC(_IOC_READ,(type),(nr),sizeof(size))
#define _IOW(type,nr,size)  _IOC(_IOC_WRITE,(type),(nr),sizeof(size))
#define _IOWR(type,nr,size) _IOC(_IOC_READ|_IOC_WRITE,(type),(nr),sizeof(size))

比如定义设置RTC时间的命令，和读取RTC时间的命令

  #define RTC_CMD_MAGIC 'R'
  #define RTC_CMD_GET _IOR(RTC_CMD_MAGIC, 0, struct rtc_time_s *)
  #define RTC_CMD_SET _IOW(RTC_CMD_MAGIC, 1, struct rtc_time_s *)

ioctl实现

  static long rtc_ioctl (struct file *fp, unsigned int cmd, unsigned long arg)
  {
      struct rtc_time_s __user *buf = (struct rtc_time_s __user *)arg;
      unsigned long cur_time;
      struct rtc_time_s tm;

      switch (cmd) {
          case RTC_CMD_GET:
              cur_time = regs->RTCDR;
              rtc_time_s_trans(cur_time, &tm);
              if (copy_to_user(buf, &tm, sizeof(tm)) != 0) {
                  return -1;
              }
              break;

          case RTC_CMD_SET:
              if (copy_from_user(&tm, buf, sizeof(tm)) != 0) {
                  return -1;
              }
              cur_time = rtc_tm_to_time(&tm);
              regs->RTCLR = cur_time;
              break;

          default:
              return -1;
      }
      return 0;
  }

private_data

  struct file {
      ...
      /* needed for tty driver, and maybe others */
      void            *private_data;
  };

fp->private_data可用于实现驱动会话。
如在 open 操作时分配会话上下文，挂在 private_data上，其他操作调用时 fp->private_data 可以获得当前用户的会话信息。

提高驱动的安全性

为了避免用户非法输入导致内核挂掉，需要先检查用户数据。
常见的检查方法：
检查ioctl命令
_IOC_TYPE(cmd) 判断命令type是否合法
_IOC_DIR(cmd) 判断命令是读还是写
检查用户内存地址是否合法
access_ok(addr, sz) 判断用户传递的内存是否合法
返回值：1 成功，0 失败
有些函数内部自带检测：copy_from_user, copy_to_user, get_user, put_user
分支预测优化：likely, unlikely
比如

      if (copy_from_user(&tm, buf, len) != 0) {  // 由于这里出错可能性低
          printk("rtc_write failed\n");          // 所以这里不应该先缓存
          return -1;
      }
      regs->RTCLR = rtc_tm_to_time(&tm);         // 应该先缓存这里

使用 unlikely 告诉编译器为真的分支大概率不会执行，于是cache缓存时会跳过那部分指令

      if (unlikely(copy_from_user(&tm, buf, len) != 0)) {
          printk("rtc_write failed\n");
          return -1;
      }
      regs->RTCLR = rtc_tm_to_time(&tm);

制作库

由于直接基于文件系统导出的驱动接口不能直观描述接口功能，所以还需要做一个库，库直接操作驱动接口，用户使用库实现应用。
如 rtc的库可以这样声明

#ifndef __RTCLIB_H
#define __RTCLIB_H

#include <sys/ioctl.h>
#include <unistd.h>
#include <sys/types.h>
#include <sys/stat.h>
#include <fcntl.h>

struct rtc_time {
        unsigned int year;
        unsigned int mon;
        unsigned int day;
        unsigned int hour;
        unsigned int min;
        unsigned int sec;
};

int rtc_open(const char *pathname);
int rtc_close(int fd);
int rtc_set_time(int fd, struct rtc_time *ptm);
int rtc_get_time(int fd, struct rtc_time *ptm);

#endif
