背景
基于 Linux 3.14 来简单分析设备驱动模型。
前言
对于嵌入式Linux的底层程序员而言，对设备驱动模型的学习非常重要：以后看具体的总线设备模型时会更加清晰。
建议先看了解：kobject、kset和ktype
Linux设备模型的目的：为内核建立一个统一的设备模型，从而又一个对系统结构的一般性抽象描述。
换句话说，Linux设备模型提取了设备操作的共同属性，进行抽象，并将这部分共同的属性在内核中实现，而为需要新添加设备或驱动提供一般性的统一接口，这使得驱动程序的开发变得更简单了，而程序员只需要去学习接口就行了。
在内核里，有各种各样的总线，如 usb_bus_type、spi_bus_type、pci_bus_type、platform_bus_type、i2c_bus_type 等，内核通过总线将设备与驱动分离。
设备模型是层次的结构，层次的每一个节点都是通过kobject实现的，在文件上则体现在sysfs文件系统。
关于kobkect，如果不清楚请移步： http://blog.csdn.net/lizuobin2/article/details/51523693
关于 uevet 、mdev 前面也说过了，请参考： http://blog.csdn.net/lizuobin2/article/details/51534385
kobject 结构可能的层次结构如图：
对于整个 设备总线驱动模型 的样子，大概如下图吧，也并不复杂。
简单来说，
bus负责维护 注册进来的devcie与driver，每注册进来一个device或者driver都会调用Bus->match函数 将device与driver进行配对，并将它们加入链表。如果配对成功，调用
Bus->probe或者driver->probe函数， 调用kobject_uevent函数设置环境变量（通知用户空间），mdev进行创建设备节点等操作。
我们从 Bus 、driver 到 device三个部分进行详细的分析。
总线：
总线(bus)是linux发展过程中抽象出来的一种设备模型，为了统一管理所有的设备，内核中每个设备都会被挂载在总线上，这个bus可以是对应硬件的bus(i2c bus、spi bus)、可以是虚拟bus(platform bus)。
bus将所有挂在上面的具体设备抽象成两部分，device_driver和device。
driver与device：
driver实现了同类型设备的驱动程序实现，而device则向系统注册具体的设备需要的资源，每当添加一个新的driver(device)到bus中时，都将调用bus的match函数，试图寻找匹配的device(driver)。
如果匹配成功，就调用probe函数，在probe函数中实现设备的初始化、各种配置以及生成用户空间的文件接口。
probe函数是总线在匹配成功时调用的函数，bus->probe和drv->probe中只会有一个起效，同时存在时使用bus->probe。
初始化
driver_init
所有的bus都是在buses_init，kernel启动以后，进行初始化，最终执行到：
// init/main.c
kernel_init();
kernel_init_freeable();
do_basic_setup();
driver_init(); // 注意这个
do_initcalls();
看看driver_init做了什么：
// drivers/base/init.c
void __init driver_init(void)
{
/* These are the core pieces */
devtmpfs_init();
devices_init(); // 初始化device
buses_init(); // 初始化bus
classes_init();
firmware_init();
hypervisor_init();
/* These are also core pieces, but must come after the
* core core pieces.
*/
platform_bus_init();
cpu_dev_init();
memory_dev_init();
container_dev_init();
}
注意devices_init与buses_init这两个函数会创建一些对应的对象，我们能够在sysfs中看到这些对应的对象，在后续中会用到。。
devices_init
// driversbase/base.h
struct kset *devices_kset;
extern struct kset *devices_kset;
// drivers/base/core.c
#include "base.h"
struct kset *devices_kset;
int __init devices_init(void)
{
// 创建 /sys/devices
devices_kset = kset_create_and_add("devices", &device_uevent_ops, NULL);
// 创建 /sys/dev
dev_kobj = kobject_create_and_add("dev", NULL);
// 创建 /sys/dev/block
sysfs_dev_block_kobj = kobject_create_and_add("block", dev_kobj);
// 创建 /sys/dev/char
sysfs_dev_char_kobj = kobject_create_and_add("char", dev_kobj);
return 0;
}
buses_init
// drivers/base/bus.c
static struct kset *system_kset;
static struct kset *bus_kset;
int __init buses_init(void)
{
// 创建 /sys/bus
bus_kset = kset_create_and_add("bus", &bus_uevent_ops, NULL);
if (!bus_kset)
return -ENOMEM;
// 创建 /sys/devices/system
system_kset = kset_create_and_add("system", NULL, &devices_kset->kobj);
if (!system_kset)
return -ENOMEM;
return 0;
}
同样是调用了kset_create_and_add，这里涉及到了kset、kobject这些概念。
kset_create_and_add
kobject_create_and_add这个函数首先会调用kobject_create来分配并初始化一个kobject对象，然后调用kobject_add函数在sysfs文件系统中为新生成的kobject对象建立一个新的目录。
// lib/kobject.c
/**
* kset_create_and_add - create a struct kset dynamically and add it to sysfs
*
* @name: the name for the kset
* @uevent_ops: a struct kset_uevent_ops for the kset
* @parent_kobj: the parent kobject of this kset, if any.
*
* This function creates a kset structure dynamically and registers it
* with sysfs. When you are finished with this structure, call
* kset_unregister() and the structure will be dynamically freed when it
* is no longer being used.
*
* If the kset was not able to be created, NULL will be returned.
*/
struct kset *kset_create_and_add(const char *name,
const struct kset_uevent_ops *uevent_ops,
struct kobject *parent_kobj)
{
struct kset *kset;
int error;
kset = kset_create(name, uevent_ops, parent_kobj);
if (!kset)
return NULL;
error = kset_register(kset);
if (error) {
kfree(kset);
return NULL;
}
return kset;
}
EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL(kset_create_and_add);
此后，其他bus通过 bus_register 进行注册，实际上会注册到 bus_kest 中。
bus
bus_type原型
// include/linux/device.h
/**
* struct bus_type - The bus type of the device
*
* @name: The name of the bus.
* @dev_name: Used for subsystems to enumerate devices like ("foo%u", dev->id).
* @dev_root: Default device to use as the parent.
* @dev_attrs: Default attributes of the devices on the bus.
* @bus_groups: Default attributes of the bus.
* @dev_groups: Default attributes of the devices on the bus.
* @drv_groups: Default attributes of the device drivers on the bus.
* @match: Called, perhaps multiple times, whenever a new device or driver
* is added for this bus. It should return a nonzero value if the
* given device can be handled by the given driver.
* @uevent: Called when a device is added, removed, or a few other things
* that generate uevents to add the environment variables.
* @probe: Called when a new device or driver add to this bus, and callback
* the specific driver\'s probe to initial the matched device.
* @remove: Called when a device removed from this bus.
* @shutdown: Called at shut-down time to quiesce the device.
*
* @online: Called to put the device back online (after offlining it).
* @offline: Called to put the device offline for hot-removal. May fail.
*
* @suspend: Called when a device on this bus wants to go to sleep mode.
* @resume: Called to bring a device on this bus out of sleep mode.
* @pm: Power management operations of this bus, callback the specific
* device driver\'s pm-ops.
* @iommu_ops: IOMMU specific operations for this bus, used to attach IOMMU
* driver implementations to a bus and allow the driver to do
* bus-specific setup
* @p: The private data of the driver core, only the driver core can
* touch this.
* @lock_key: Lock class key for use by the lock validator
*
* A bus is a channel between the processor and one or more devices. For the
* purposes of the device model, all devices are connected via a bus, even if
* it is an internal, virtual, "platform" bus. Buses can plug into each other.
* A USB controller is usually a PCI device, for example. The device model
* represents the actual connections between buses and the devices they control.
* A bus is represented by the bus_type structure. It contains the name, the
* default attributes, the bus\' methods, PM operations, and the driver core\'s
* private data.

注册bus：bus_register

*/
int bus_register(struct bus_type *bus)
{
int retval;
struct subsys_private *priv;
priv = kzalloc(sizeof(struct subsys_private), GFP_KERNEL);
/* 1. bus 与 prv 相互建立联系 */
// 私有数据 .bus -> bus 本身
priv->bus = bus;
// bus->p 指向 priv
bus->p = priv;
// 内核通知链
BLOCKING_INIT_NOTIFIER_HEAD(&priv->bus_notifier);
/* 设置 bus->prv->subsys->kobj */
// 设置 priv->subsys.kobj.name = bus->name 对应于/sys/ 目录下的目录名
retval = kobject_set_name(&priv->subsys.kobj, "%s", bus->name);
// 所有的 priv->subsys.kobj.kset 指向 bus_kse 对应于图中④与六的关系
priv->subsys.kobj.kset = bus_kset;
// 所有的priv->subsys.kobj.ktype 等于 bus_ktype
priv->subsys.kobj.ktype = &bus_ktype;
priv->drivers_autoprobe = 1;
/* 注册 kset (bus->prv->subsys priv->devices_kset priv->drivers_kset) */
// 注册 priv->subsys ，由于 priv->subsys.kobj.kset = bus_kset，所以会在 /sys/bus/目录下创建 目录 如/sys/bus/plateform
retval = kset_register(&priv->subsys);
// sysfs_create_file(&bus->p->subsys.kobj, &bus_attr_uevent->attr);
retval = bus_create_file(bus, &bus_attr_uevent);
// 由于 priv->subsys.kobj.kset = bus_kset ，因此会创建 /sys/bus/XXX/devices 目录 如 /sys/bus/plateform/devices
priv->devices_kset = kset_create_and_add("devices", NULL,
&priv->subsys.kobj);
// 同理 创建 /sys/bus/XXX/devices 目录 如 /sys/bus/plateform/drivers
priv->drivers_kset = kset_create_and_add("drivers", NULL,
&priv->subsys.kobj);
// 初始化 klist_devices 并设置get put 函数 初始化 klist_drivers 不知为何没有get put ?
klist_init(&priv->klist_devices, klist_devices_get, klist_devices_put);
klist_init(&priv->klist_drivers, NULL, NULL);
retval = add_probe_files(bus);
// 添加 bus->attrs 属性文件
retval = bus_add_attrs(bus);
pr_debug("bus: \'%s\': registered\\n", bus->name);
return 0;
}
EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL(bus_register);
目前，能通过 bus_register 函数处理的工作有：
1、将 Bus 与 priv 相互建立联系，用于处理私有数据
2、注册通知链BLOCKING_INIT_NOTIFIER_HEAD(&priv->bus_notifier);
3、设置bus->priv->subsys(kset).kobj的名字为 bus->name
4、设置 bus->priv->subsys(kset).kobj.kset 指向 bus_kset
5、设置 bus->priv->subsys(kset).kobj.ktype 为 bus_ktype ，提供 show store 函数
6、设置 bus->priv->drivers_autoprobe = 1;
7、注册 bus->priv->subsys(kset) ：对应于图中④与⑥的关系
由于4，且没有指定
bus->priv->subsys(kset).kobj.Parent，会将bus_kest.kobj设置为bus->priv->subsys(kset).kobj.Parent因此，会将
bus->priv->subsys(kset).kobj.entry加入bus_kest链表，且会在/sys/bus目录下创建相应的总线目录/sys/bus/$(bus->name)，例如/sys/bus/platform
8、创建 bus_attr_uevent->attr 属性文件
9、创建并注册 devices_kset ，devices_kset.kobj.parent = bus->priv->subsys.kobj ,名字为 device ，因此会创建 /sys/bus/$(bus->name)/devices
10、创建并注册 drivers_kset ，drivers_kset.kobj.parent = bus->priv->subsys.kobj ,名字为 drivers ，因此会创建 /sys/bus/$(bus->name)/drivers
11、初始化 bus->priv->klist_devices 链表
12、初始化 bus->priv->klist_drivers 链表
13、创建 bus->bus_attrs 属性文件

driver_register做了这几件事情：
1、判断driver是否被注册过：通过名字查找总线中是否已经存在同名的对象
2、把驱动添加进bus中，

}
在向Bus注册一个driver时，会调用到 driver_attch来寻找与之配对的 deivice。
driver_attach
从逻辑上来说，一个驱动可以支持多个设备；一个设备只能绑定一个驱动。
因此，driver_attach最终一一遍历目前所有的驱动和设备，并绑定对应的设备。
// drivers/base/dd.c

根据名字我们应该能猜测出来，调用Bus的每一个 dev 与 driver 进行 __driver_attach。
具体的做法是通过初始化一个迭代器指向链表的头部（在这里是bus->p->klist_devices），然后通过next_device进行遍历，并逐一执行fn方法。
关于迭代器的函数我这里贴出来，但是不再做深入的解释了。
// lib/klist.c
void klist_iter_init_node(struct klist *k, struct klist_iter *i,
struct klist_node *n)
{
i->i_klist = k;
i->i_cur = n;
if (n)
kref_get(&n->n_ref);
}
EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL(klist_iter_init_node);
// drivers/base/core.c
static struct device *next_device(struct klist_iter *i)
{
struct klist_node *n = klist_next(i);
struct device *dev = NULL;
struct device_private *p;
if (n) {
p = to_device_private_parent(n);
dev = p->device;
}
return dev;
}
// drivers/base/base.h
#define to_device_private_parent(obj) \\
container_of(obj, struct device_private, knode_parent)
我们看看fn，在这里它执行的是__driver_attach。
__driver_attach
static int __driver_attach(struct device *dev, void *data)
{
struct device_driver *drv = data;
/*
* Lock device and try to bind to it. We drop the error
* here and always return 0, because we need to keep trying
* to bind to devices and some drivers will return an error
* simply if it didn\'t support the device.
*
* driver_probe_device() will spit a warning if there
* is an error.
*/
// 1、匹配 现有的 drv 与 现在的 dev
if (!driver_match_device(drv, dev))
return 0;
if (dev->parent) /* Needed for USB */
device_lock(dev->parent);
device_lock(dev);
// 2、从这里开始probe
if (!dev->driver)
driver_probe_device(drv, dev);
device_unlock(dev);
if (dev->parent)
device_unlock(dev->parent);
return 0;
}
在 __driver_attach 中，首先会调用到 driver_match_device 函数（return drv->bus->match ? drv->bus->match(dev, drv) : 1;）进行匹配：
// drivers/base/base.h
static inline int driver_match_device(struct device_driver *drv,
struct device *dev)
{
return drv->bus->match ? drv->bus->match(dev, drv) : 1;
}
当match方法存在时，进行匹配，返回0代表成功。否则代表失败。
如果匹配成功，则继续调用 driver_probe_device(drv, dev)
// drivers/base/dd.c
/**
* driver_probe_device - attempt to bind device & driver together
* @drv: driver to bind a device to
* @dev: device to try to bind to the driver

really_probe 中干了四件大事。
关联dev与drv
在 dev 中记录 driver ：
dev->driver = drv;
已经match上了配对成功了嘛，所以可以将该device和driver关联起来： dev <- drv
然而device_driver中并没有device成员，因此并没有 drv <- dev。
通知bus、更新sysfs
driver_sysfs_add(dev);
1、通知总线绑定了设备和驱动
2、创建两个symlink，更新sysfs
- 在sysfs中该 dev.kobj 目录下创建与之匹配的driver的符号连接,名字为“driver”
- 在sysfs中该 driver.kobj 目录下创建与之匹配的device的符号连接,名字为 kobject_name(&dev->kobj)
// drivers/base/dd.c
static int driver_sysfs_add(struct device *dev)
{
int ret;
// 通知总线绑定了设备和驱动
if (dev->bus)
blocking_notifier_call_chain(&dev->bus->p->bus_notifier,
BUS_NOTIFY_BIND_DRIVER, dev);
/* 例如，
在/sys/bus/XXX/drivers/XXX 目录下建立symlink，链接名为 kobj->name，
链接指向 /sys/devices/platform/XXX
*/
ret = sysfs_create_link(&dev->driver->p->kobj, &dev->kobj,
kobject_name(&dev->kobj));
if (ret == 0) {
/* 例如，
在/sys/devices/platform/XXX/下建立symlink，链接名为driver，
指向/sys/bus/xxx/drivers目录下的某个目录*/
ret = sysfs_create_link(&dev->kobj, &dev->driver->p->kobj,
"driver");
if (ret)
sysfs_remove_link(&dev->driver->p->kobj,
kobject_name(&dev->kobj));
}
return ret;
}
执行真正的 probe 方法
多态
if (dev->bus->probe) {
ret = dev->bus->probe(dev);
if (ret)
goto probe_failed;
} else if (drv->probe) {
ret = drv->probe(dev);
if (ret)
goto probe_failed;
}
probe的规则是：如果BUS上实现了probe就用BUS的probe；否则才会用driver的probe。
绑定
driver_bound(dev);
将 device 放入 driver 链表中。
看来一个device只能有一个driver，但是driver可以支持多个device
// drivers/base/dd.c
static void driver_bound(struct device *dev)
{
// 判断是否绑定过
if (klist_node_attached(&dev->p->knode_driver)) {
printk(KERN_WARNING "%s: device %s already bound\\n",
__func__, kobject_name(&dev->kobj));
return;
}
// 将 device 放入 driver 链表中。
klist_add_tail(&dev->p->knode_driver, &dev->driver->p->klist_devices);
/*
* Make sure the device is no longer in one of the deferred lists and
* kick off retrying all pending devices
*/
driver_deferred_probe_del(dev);
driver_deferred_probe_trigger();
if (dev->bus)
blocking_notifier_call_chain(&dev->bus->p->bus_notifier,
BUS_NOTIFY_BOUND_DRIVER, dev);
}
// lib/klist.c
/**
* klist_node_attached - Say whether a node is bound to a list or not.
* @n: Node that we\'re testing.
*/
int klist_node_attached(struct klist_node *n)
{
return (n->n_klist != NULL);
}
EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL(klist_node_attached);
kobject_uevent通知用户空间
主要是在/sys/devices/.../中添加dev的uevent属性文件，先不说这个。

/**
* struct device - The basic device structure
* @parent: The device\'s "parent" device, the device to which it is attached.
* In most cases, a parent device is some sort of bus or host
* controller. If parent is NULL, the device, is a top-level device,
* which is not usually what you want.
* @p: Holds the private data of the driver core portions of the device.
* See the comment of the struct device_private for detail.
* @kobj: A top-level, abstract class from which other classes are derived.
* @init_name: Initial name of the device.
* @type: The type of device.
* This identifies the device type and carries type-specific
* information.
* @mutex: Mutex to synchronize calls to its driver.
* @bus: Type of bus device is on.
* @driver: Which driver has allocated this
* @platform_data: Platform data specific to the device.
* Example: For devices on custom boards, as typical of embedded
* and SOC based hardware, Linux often uses platform_data to point
* to board-specific structures describing devices and how they
* are wired. That can include what ports are available, chip
* variants, which GPIO pins act in what additional roles, and so
* on. This shrinks the "Board Support Packages" (BSPs) and
* minimizes board-specific #ifdefs in drivers.
* @power: For device power management.
* See Documentation/power/devices.txt for details.
* @pm_domain: Provide callbacks that are executed during system suspend,
* hibernation, system resume and during runtime PM transitions
* along with subsystem-level and driver-level callbacks.
* @pins: For device pin management.
* See Documentation/pinctrl.txt for details.
* @numa_node: NUMA node this device is close to.
* @dma_mask: Dma mask (if dma\'ble device).
* @coherent_dma_mask: Like dma_mask, but for alloc_coherent mapping as not all
* hardware supports 64-bit addresses for consistent allocations
* such descriptors.
* @dma_parms: A low level driver may set these to teach IOMMU code about
* segment limitations.
* @dma_pools: Dma pools (if dma\'ble device).
* @dma_mem: Internal for coherent mem override.
* @cma_area: Contiguous memory area for dma allocations
* @archdata: For arch-specific additions.
* @of_node: Associated device tree node.
* @acpi_node: Associated ACPI device node.
* @devt: For creating the sysfs "dev".
* @id: device instance
* @devres_lock: Spinlock to protect the resource of the device.
* @devres_head: The resources list of the device.
* @knode_class: The node used to add the device to the class list.
* @class: The class of the device.
* @groups: Optional attribute groups.
* @release: Callback to free the device after all references have
* gone away. This should be set by the allocator of the
* device (i.e. the bus driver that discovered the device).
* @iommu_group: IOMMU group the device belongs to.
*
* @offline_disabled: If set, the device is permanently online.
* @offline: Set after successful invocation of bus type\'s .offline().
*
* At the lowest level, every device in a Linux system is represented by an
* instance of struct device. The device structure contains the information
* that the device model core needs to model the system. Most subsystems,
* however, track additional information about the devices they host. As a
* result, it is rare for devices to be represented by bare device structures;
* instead, that structure, like kobject structures, is usually embedded within
* a higher-level representation of the device.

device_attach
从逻辑上来说，一个驱动可以支持多个设备；一个设备只能绑定一个驱动。
device_attach尝试为设备寻找到一个驱动；
因此，device_attach稍微与driver_attach不一样：调用driver_match_device匹配设备和驱动，成功就结束循环退出（而不是执行到循环）；
