qcacld-2.0的wlan分析之二

在设备进行pci总线注册之后，进入pci驱动的probe函数，该函数中最为重要的就是开启wlan的主机设备驱动，即hdd_wlan_startup()函数:

/**---------------------------------------------------------------------------
  \brief hdd_wlan_startup() - HDD init function
  This is the driver startup code executed once a WLAN device has been detected
  \param  - dev - Pointer to the underlying device
  \return -  0 for success, < 0 for failure
  --------------------------------------------------------------------------*/
int hdd_wlan_startup(struct device *dev, v_VOID_t *hif_sc)
{
   VOS_STATUS status;
   hdd_adapter_t *pAdapter = NULL;
#ifdef WLAN_OPEN_P2P_INTERFACE
   hdd_adapter_t *pP2pAdapter = NULL;
#endif
   hdd_context_t *pHddCtx = NULL;
   v_CONTEXT_t pVosContext= NULL;
#ifdef WLAN_BTAMP_FEATURE
   VOS_STATUS vStatus = VOS_STATUS_SUCCESS;
   WLANBAP_ConfigType btAmpConfig;
   hdd_config_t *pConfig;
#endif
   eHalStatus hal_status;
   int ret;
   int i;
   struct wiphy *wiphy;
   unsigned long rc;
   tSmeThermalParams thermalParam;
   tSirTxPowerLimit *hddtxlimit;
#ifdef FEATURE_WLAN_CH_AVOID
   int unsafeChannelIndex;
#endif

   ENTER();

.......

pAdapter = hdd_open_adapter( pHddCtx, WLAN_HDD_INFRA_STATION, "wlan%d",
       wlan_hdd_get_intf_addr(pHddCtx), FALSE );

......

success:
   EXIT();
   return 0;
}

该函数初始化内容繁多，主要集中的有两部分，一个是vos_open 打开开虚拟接口，另外是hdd_open_adapter 函数，提供了网络接口并建立了无线网络适配器。

hdd_wlan_startup 中通过wlan_hdd_cfg80211_wiphy_alloc 为无线设备分配一个wiphy结构体，再通过hdd_open_adapter 函数中hdd_register_interface 实现无线网络设备注册，

/*
 * FUNCTION: wlan_hdd_cfg80211_wiphy_alloc
 * This function is called by hdd_wlan_startup()
 * during initialization.
 * This function is used to allocate wiphy structure.
 */
struct wiphy *wlan_hdd_cfg80211_wiphy_alloc(int priv_size)
{
    struct wiphy *wiphy;
    ENTER();

    /*
     *   Create wiphy device
     */
    wiphy = wiphy_new(&wlan_hdd_cfg80211_ops, priv_size);

    if (!wiphy)
    {
        /* Print error and jump into err label and free the memory */
        hddLog(VOS_TRACE_LEVEL_ERROR, "%s: wiphy init failed", __func__);
        return NULL;
    }

    return wiphy;
}

在分配新的wiphy时，关联了wlan_hdd_cfg80211_ops 结构体，该结构体是cfg80211提供的操作结构体，即struct cfg80211_ops

hdd_adapter_t* hdd_open_adapter( hdd_context_t *pHddCtx, tANI_U8 session_type,
                                 const char *iface_name, tSirMacAddr macAddr,
                                 tANI_U8 rtnl_held )
{
   hdd_adapter_t *pAdapter = NULL;
   hdd_adapter_list_node_t *pHddAdapterNode = NULL;
   VOS_STATUS status = VOS_STATUS_E_FAILURE;
   VOS_STATUS exitbmpsStatus = VOS_STATUS_E_FAILURE;
   hdd_cfg80211_state_t *cfgState;
   int ret;

   hddLog(VOS_TRACE_LEVEL_INFO_HIGH, "%s: iface =%s type = %d\n", __func__,
