时钟设备是一种可编程设备,对其编程可产生中断。可以有定时中断,oneshot模式中断等。
/** * struct clock_event_device - clock event device descriptor * @event_handler: Assigned by the framework to be called by the low * level handler of the event source * @set_next_event: set next event function using a clocksource delta * @set_next_ktime: set next event function using a direct ktime value * @next_event: local storage for the next event in oneshot mode * @max_delta_ns: maximum delta value in ns * @min_delta_ns: minimum delta value in ns * @mult: nanosecond to cycles multiplier * @shift: nanoseconds to cycles divisor (power of two) * @state_use_accessors:current state of the device, assigned by the core code * @features: features * @retries: number of forced programming retries * @set_state_periodic: switch state to periodic * @set_state_oneshot: switch state to oneshot * @set_state_oneshot_stopped: switch state to oneshot_stopped * @set_state_shutdown: switch state to shutdown * @tick_resume: resume clkevt device * @broadcast: function to broadcast events * @min_delta_ticks: minimum delta value in ticks stored for reconfiguration * @max_delta_ticks: maximum delta value in ticks stored for reconfiguration * @name: ptr to clock event name * @rating: variable to rate clock event devices * @irq: IRQ number (only for non CPU local devices) * @bound_on: Bound on CPU * @cpumask: cpumask to indicate for which CPUs this device works * @list: list head for the management code * @owner: module reference */ struct clock_event_device { void (*event_handler)(struct clock_event_device *);
上面这个句柄是此结构的关键,提供中断处理函数。 int (*set_next_event)(unsigned long evt, struct clock_event_device *);
设置下一次中断到期时间。或者说是下一次到期的中断。 int (*set_next_ktime)(ktime_t expires, struct clock_event_device *); ktime_t next_event; u64 max_delta_ns; u64 min_delta_ns; u32 mult; u32 shift; enum clock_event_state state_use_accessors; unsigned int features; unsigned long retries;
int (*set_state_periodic)(struct clock_event_device *); int (*set_state_oneshot)(struct clock_event_device *); int (*set_state_oneshot_stopped)(struct clock_event_device *); int (*set_state_shutdown)(struct clock_event_device *); int (*tick_resume)(struct clock_event_device *);
void (*broadcast)(const struct cpumask *mask); void (*suspend)(struct clock_event_device *); void (*resume)(struct clock_event_device *); unsigned long min_delta_ticks; unsigned long max_delta_ticks;
const char *name; int rating; int irq; int bound_on; const struct cpumask *cpumask; struct list_head list; struct module *owner; } ____cacheline_aligned;
相关数据结构定义:
/* The registered clock event devices */
static LIST_HEAD(clockevent_devices);
static LIST_HEAD(clockevents_released);
/* Protection for the above */
static DEFINE_RAW_SPINLOCK(clockevents_lock);
/* Protection for unbind operations */
static DEFINE_MUTEX(clockevents_mutex);
