I2C子系统之适配器的设备接口分析(i2c-dev.c文件分析)

Posted 2022-07-04 正在起飞的蜗牛

1、驱动实现的原理

(1)驱动实现的思路：将I2C控制器的操作方法直接提供给应用，驱动本身只实现最简单的I2C总线收发数据的方法，具体I2C接口硬件的操作时序由应用去控制；
(2)驱动只做了最基本的收发数据操作，驱动代码开发的难度降低了，但是应用开发的难度上升了，并且应用需要感知硬件的差异，但是我们大部分在写程序时都是需要对应用屏蔽硬件的差异，所以这套驱动框架并不常用；

2、驱动实现的效果

(1)在/dev目录下创建"i2c-n(n=0,1,2······)"设备节点，每一个设备节点代表Soc的一个I2C控制器；
(2)应用通过open、read、write、ioctl等函数，去于挂载在相应I2C总线上的I2C设备进行通信；
补充：一个I2C控制器就等同于一条I2C总线；I2C控制器在I2C子系统中也叫适配器；

3、驱动的加载：i2c_dev_init( )

//设备节点的操作方法
static const struct file_operations i2cdev_fops = 
	.owner		= THIS_MODULE,
	.llseek		= no_llseek,
	.read		= i2cdev_read,
	.write		= i2cdev_write,
	.unlocked_ioctl	= i2cdev_ioctl,
	.open		= i2cdev_open,
	.release	= i2cdev_release,
;

//I2C驱动
static struct i2c_driver i2cdev_driver = 
	.driver = 
		.name	= "dev_driver",
	,
	.attach_adapter	= i2cdev_attach_adapter,
	.detach_adapter	= i2cdev_detach_adapter,
;

#define I2C_MAJOR	89		/* Device major number		*/

static int __init i2c_dev_init(void)

	int res;

	printk(KERN_INFO "i2c /dev entries driver\\n");

	//注册设备号是89，次设备号范围是0-255、文件操作集合是i2cdev_fops的字符设备
	res = register_chrdev(I2C_MAJOR, "i2c", &i2cdev_fops);
	if (res)
		goto out;

	//注册名字是i2c-dev的设备类
	i2c_dev_class = class_create(THIS_MODULE, "i2c-dev");
	if (IS_ERR(i2c_dev_class)) 
		res = PTR_ERR(i2c_dev_class);
		goto out_unreg_chrdev;
	

	//注册i2c适配器设备驱动i2cdev_driver
	res = i2c_add_driver(&i2cdev_driver);
	if (res)
		goto out_unreg_class;

	return 0;

out_unreg_class:
	class_destroy(i2c_dev_class);
out_unreg_chrdev:
	unregister_chrdev(I2C_MAJOR, "i2c");
out:
	printk(KERN_ERR "%s: Driver Initialisation failed\\n", __FILE__);
	return res;

(1)注册设备号是89，次设备号范围是0-255、文件操作集合是i2cdev_fops的字符设备;
(2)注册名字是i2c-dev的设备类;
(3)注册i2c适配器设备驱动i2cdev_driver，将来内核注册的每个I2C适配器都会被该驱动以设备节点的方式暴露给应用；
总结：I2C驱动都同属于i2c-dev设备类，共用主设备号89；将来在"/sys/class/i2c-dev"目录下可以看到注册的I2C驱动；

4、打开设备节点

4.1、i2cdev_open()函数

static int i2cdev_open(struct inode *inode, struct file *file)

	//通过inode获取次设备号
	unsigned int minor = iminor(inode);
	
	struct i2c_client *client;
	struct i2c_adapter *adap;
	struct i2c_dev *i2c_dev;

	//根据次设备号从链表i2c_dev_list中获得对应的i2c_dev对象
	i2c_dev = i2c_dev_get_by_minor(minor);
	if (!i2c_dev)
		return -ENODEV;

	//获得ID为i2c_dev->adap->nr的适配器对象
	adap = i2c_get_adapter(i2c_dev->adap->nr);
	if (!adap)
		return -ENODEV;

	/* This creates an anonymous i2c_client, which may later be
	 * pointed to some address using I2C_SLAVE or I2C_SLAVE_FORCE.
	 *
	 * This client is ** NEVER REGISTERED ** with the driver model
	 * or I2C core code!!  It just holds private copies of addressing
	 * information and maybe a PEC flag.
	 */

	//创建一个i2c_client对象并初始化
	client = kzalloc(sizeof(*client), GFP_KERNEL);
	if (!client) 
		i2c_put_adapter(adap);
		return -ENOMEM;
	
	snprintf(client->name, I2C_NAME_SIZE, "i2c-dev %d", adap->nr);
	client->driver = &i2cdev_driver;
	client->adapter = adap;

	//保存到struct file结构体的私有数据，后续会用到
	file->private_data = client;

	return 0;

(1)从inode中获取次设备号，然后根据次设备号从链表i2c_dev_list中获得对应的i2c_dev对象；
(2)获得ID为i2c_dev->adap->nr的适配器对象，适配器对象就是在内核中用于表示I2C控制器的；
(3)创建一个i2c_client对象并初始化，将adap、i2cdev_driver、名字都保存到client中；
(4)最后将i2c_client对象作为file的私有数据供后续其他操作使用；

5、从I2C设备读取数据

5.1、函数调用

i2cdev_read()
	i2c_master_recv()
		i2c_transfer()
			adap->algo->master_xfer()	//adap适配器收发数据的方法
	copy_to_user()

5.2、i2cdev_read()函数

static ssize_t i2cdev_read(struct file *file, char __user *buf, size_t count,
		loff_t *offset)

	char *tmp;
	int ret;

	//解析处open时构建的struct i2c_client结构体
	struct i2c_client *client = file->private_data;

	if (count > 8192)
		count = 8192;

	tmp = kmalloc(count, GFP_KERNEL);
	if (tmp == NULL)
		return -ENOMEM;

	pr_debug("i2c-dev: i2c-%d reading %zu bytes.\\n",
		iminor(file->f_path.dentry->d_inode), count);

	//接收数据，然后再把数据拷贝到用户空间缓存区
	ret = i2c_master_recv(client, tmp, count);
	if (ret >= 0)
		ret = copy_to_user(buf, tmp, count) ? -EFAULT : ret;
	
	kfree(tmp);
	return ret;

(1)解析处open时构建的struct i2c_client结构体;
(2)调用i2c_master_recv()函数接收数据，然后再把数据拷贝到用户空间缓存区；

5.3、i2c_master_recv()函数

int i2c_master_recv(struct i2c_client *client, char *buf, int count)

	struct i2c_adapter *adap = client->adapter;
	struct i2c_msg msg;
	int ret;

	//在open()方法中并没有看到对client->addr赋值，因此打开设备后并不能直接调用read()方法
	msg.addr = client->addr;	//从设备在I2C总线上的地址
	msg.flags = client->flags & I2C_M_TEN;
	msg.flags |= I2C_M_RD;
	msg.len = count;
	msg.buf = buf;

	//i2c_transfer()通过调用适配器通信方法master_xfer将消息发出
	ret = i2c_transfer(adap, &msg, 1);

	/* If everything went ok (i.e. 1 msg transmitted), return #bytes
	   transmitted, else error code. */
	return (ret == 1) ? count : ret;

(1)i2c_master_recv()是通过填充i2c_msg结构体，然后调用i2c_transfer()函数来实现传输；
(2)i2c_transfer()则通过调用适配器通信方法master_xfer()将消息发出；
补充：在填充msg时赋值了从设备在I2C总线上的地址，但是在open时并没有对addr进行赋值，所以是不能open后直接进行read操作的，需要先调用ioctl函数设置从设备地址addr，表明要操作I2C总线上的哪个设备；

6、往I2C设备写数据

6.1、函数调用关系

i2cdev_write()
	copy_from_user()
	i2c_master_send()
		i2c_transfer()
			adap->algo->master_xfer()

6.2、i2cdev_write()函数

static ssize_t i2cdev_write(struct file *file, const char __user *buf,
		size_t count, loff_t *offset)

	int ret;
	char *tmp;
	struct i2c_client *client = file->private_data;

	if (count > 8192)
		count = 8192;

	tmp = kmalloc(count, GFP_KERNEL);
	if (tmp == NULL)
		return -ENOMEM;

	//把要发送的数据从用户空间拷贝到内核空间
	if (copy_from_user(tmp, buf, count)) 
		kfree(tmp);
		return -EFAULT;
	

	pr_debug("i2c-dev: i2c-%d writing %zu bytes.\\n",
		iminor(file->f_path.dentry->d_inode), count);

	ret = i2c_master_send(client, tmp, count);
	kfree(tmp);
	return ret;

(1)解析处open时构建的struct i2c_client结构体;
(2)调用i2c_master_send()函数发送数据，最终都是调用适配器通信方法master_xfer()，和读数据的过程基本一致；

7、ioctl函数：i2cdev_ioctl()

static long i2cdev_ioctl(struct file *file, unsigned int cmd, unsigned long arg)

	//解析处open()时创建的client
	struct i2c_client *client = file->private_data;
	unsigned long funcs;

	dev_dbg(&client->adapter->dev, "ioctl, cmd=0x%02x, arg=0x%02lx\\n",
		cmd, arg);

	switch (cmd) 
	case I2C_SLAVE:	//分配从设备地址，如果地址已经分配，则返回EBUSY错误
	case I2C_SLAVE_FORCE:	//不管分配与否，强制设置该地址
		if ((arg > 0x3ff) ||
		    (((client->flags & I2C_M_TEN) == 0) && arg > 0x7f))
			return -EINVAL;
		if (cmd == I2C_SLAVE && i2cdev_check_addr(client->adapter, arg))
			return -EBUSY;
		/* REVISIT: address could become busy later */
		client->addr = arg;
		return 0;
	case I2C_TENBIT:	//设置I2C_M_TEN标识．启用10bit地址模式
		if (arg)
			client->flags |= I2C_M_TEN;
		else
			client->flags &= ~I2C_M_TEN;
		return 0;
	case I2C_PEC:	//启动SMBus的包错误检查
		if (arg)
			client->flags |= I2C_CLIENT_PEC;
		else
			client->flags &= ~I2C_CLIENT_PEC;
		return 0;
	case I2C_FUNCS:	//读取适配器支持的功能
		funcs = i2c_get_functionality(client->adapter);
		return put_user(funcs, (unsigned long __user *)arg);

	case I2C_RDWR:	//读取、写入I2C消息
		return i2cdev_ioctl_rdrw(client, arg);

	case I2C_SMBUS:	//处理SMBus消息传输
		return i2cdev_ioctl_smbus(client, arg);

	case I2C_RETRIES:	//设置重试次数
		client->adapter->retries = arg;
		break;
	case I2C_TIMEOUT:	//设置超时时间
		client->adapter->timeout = msecs_to_jiffies(arg * 10);
		break;
	default:
		return -ENOTTY;
	
	return 0;

8、设备节点是何时创建

8.1、函数调用关系

i2c_dev_init()
	i2c_add_driver()
		i2c_register_driver()
			bus_for_each_dev()
				__process_new_driver()
					driver->attach_adapter()
						i2cdev_attach_adapter()
							device_create()
							device_create_file()

8.2、i2cdev_attach_adapter()函数

static int i2cdev_attach_adapter(struct i2c_adapter *adap)

	struct i2c_dev *i2c_dev;
	int res;

	//分配一个i2c_dev对象，并添加到i2c_dev_list链表中
	i2c_dev = get_free_i2c_dev(adap);
	if (IS_ERR(i2c_dev))
		return PTR_ERR(i2c_dev);

	/* 创建设备对象并在sysfs中注册，在/dev目录下创建设备号为MKDEV(I2C_MAJOR, adap->nr)，
		名称为"i2c-%d"的字符设备节点*/
	i2c_dev->dev = device_create(i2c_dev_class, &adap->dev,
				     MKDEV(I2C_MAJOR, adap->nr), NULL,
				     "i2c-%d", adap->nr);
	if (IS_ERR(i2c_dev->dev)) 
		res = PTR_ERR(i2c_dev->dev);
		goto error;
	

	//创建"/sys/class/i2c-dev/"i2c-%d"/name"文件
	res = device_create_file(i2c_dev->dev, &dev_attr_name);
	if (res)
		goto error_destroy;

	pr_debug("i2c-dev: adapter [%s] registered as minor %d\\n",
		 adap->name, adap->nr);
	return 0;
error_destroy:
	device_destroy(i2c_dev_class, MKDEV(I2C_MAJOR, adap->nr));
error:
	return_i2c_dev(i2c_dev);
	return res;
