1. 无线网络驱动(ath9k_htc)
ath9k_htc是一个基于USB接口的SoftMAC无线网络适配器。为了其驱动能正常工作,首先必须调用usb_register来注册驱动定义的usb_driver,以借助USB Core的力量来处理与USB协议相关的事件。其代码如下:
-
static struct usb_driver ath9k_hif_usb_driver = {
-
.name = KBUILD_MODNAME,
-
.probe = ath9k_hif_usb_probe,
-
.disconnect = ath9k_hif_usb_disconnect,
-
#ifdef CONFIG_PM
-
.suspend = ath9k_hif_usb_suspend,
-
.resume = ath9k_hif_usb_resume,
-
.reset_resume = ath9k_hif_usb_resume,
-
#endif
-
.id_table = ath9k_hif_usb_ids,
-
.soft_unbind = 1,
-
};
2. 关键数据结构
1) struct ieee80211_hw: 它包含802.11 PHY的配置和硬件信息。
2.1 各层间关键数据接口
3. USB无线适配器枚举过程
当此基于USB接口的无线网络适配器被枚举时,ath9k_hif_usb_probe将被调用。其调用流程如下图所示:
3.1 struct ieee80211_ops 实例 ath9k_htc_ops(驱动实现)
ath9k_htc_ops: mac80211通过这些回调函数回调driver的处理函数。ath9k_htc为了接受mac80211的管理,它必须首先向mac80211注册,以申明自己的存在,从而可以接受mac80211的调用。
-
struct ieee80211_ops ath9k_htc_ops = {
-
.tx = ath9k_htc_tx, // 发送mac80211要求发送的帧
-
.start = ath9k_htc_start, // 第一个被attach到此硬件的net_device被enable之前被调用,之后,可以接收帧数据

3.3 struct iw_handler_def 实例 cfg80211_wext_handler(wireless实现)
cfg80211_wext_handler实现了wext要求的ioctl操作,将通过net_device->wireless_handlers->standard[ioctl cmd- SIOCIWFIRST]来进行调用。在net/wireless/wext-compat.c中的定义如下所示:
-
static const iw_handler cfg80211_handlers[] = {
-
[IW_IOCTL_IDX(SIOCGIWNAME)] = (iw_handler) cfg80211_wext_giwname,
-

.get_wireless_stats = cfg80211_wireless_stats,

}
4. 创建并注册net_device
当执行mac80211_config_ops-> ieee80211_add_iface时,它将创建net_device和对应的ieee80211_sub_if_data, 然后主要做了以下几件事:
1) 把net_device对应的名字增加到/sys/class/net/目录下
2) 把新创建的net_device插入到init_net->dev_base_head中
3) 通知上层协议,有一个新的net_device出现了,大家可以使用它了
4) 把新创建的ieee80211_sub_if_data增加到ieee80211_local的interfaces列表中
其流程如下图所示:
mac80211中定义的net_device_ops ieee80211_dataif_ops,以下这些方法,都有一个struct net_device参数。其具体定义如下:
-
static const struct net_device_ops ieee80211_dataif_ops = {
-
.ndo_open = ieee80211_open, // net_device变换到 UP 时被调用
-
.ndo_stop = ieee80211_stop, // net_device变换到 Down 时被调用
-
.ndo_uninit = ieee80211_teardown_sdata, // 取消注册或注册失败时调用
-
.ndo_start_xmit = ieee80211_subif_start_xmit, // 需要发送包时被调用
-
.ndo_set_multicast_list = ieee80211_set_multicast_list,// 多播地址列表变化时被调用
-
.ndo_change_mtu = ieee80211_change_mtu, // 当用户想改变一个设备的MTU时被调用
-
.ndo_set_mac_address = ieee80211_change_mac, // mac地址需要改变时被调用
-
.ndo_select_queue = ieee80211_netdev_select_queue, //当net_device支持多个发送队列时,用来决定使用哪个队列
-
};
mac80211中初始化net_device->netdev_ops:
-
static void ieee80211_if_setup(struct net_device *dev)
-
{
-
ether_setup(dev);
-
dev->priv_flags &= ~IFF_TX_SKB_SHARING;
-
dev->netdev_ops = &ieee80211_dataif_ops;
-
dev->destructor = free_netdev;
-
}
5. 数据接收(Data RX)流程
数据接收流程如下图所示:
IP层与TCP/UDP层接口定义如下:
-
static const struct net_protocol tcp_protocol = {
-
.handler = tcp_v4_rcv,
-
.err_handler = tcp_v4_err,
-
.gso_send_check = tcp_v4_gso_send_check,
-
.gso_segment = tcp_tso_segment,
-
.gro_receive = tcp4_gro_receive,
-
.gro_complete = tcp4_gro_complete,
-
.no_policy = 1,
-
.netns_ok = 1,
-
};
-
static const struct net_protocol udp_protocol = {
-
.handler = udp_rcv,
-
.err_handler = udp_err,
-
.gso_send_check = udp4_ufo_send_check,
-
.gso_segment = udp4_ufo_fragment,
-
.no_policy = 1,
-
.netns_ok = 1,
-
};
-
static const struct net_protocol icmp_protocol = {
-
.handler = icmp_rcv,
-
.err_handler = ping_err,
-
.no_policy = 1,
-
.netns_ok = 1,
-
};
IP层与net/core层接口定义如下:
-
static struct packet_type ip_packet_type __read_mostly = {
-
.type = cpu_to_be16(ETH_P_IP),
-
.func = ip_rcv,
-
.gso_send_check = inet_gso_send_check,
-
.gso_segment = inet_gso_segment,
-
.gro_receive = inet_gro_receive,
-
.gro_complete = inet_gro_complete,
-
};
