1. Linux字符设备驱动的组成

引自宋宝华《Linux设备驱动开发详解--基于最新的Linux 4.0内核》P138内容:


在Linux中,字符设备驱动由如下几个部分组成。
1. 字符设备驱动模块加载与卸载函数
2. 字符设备驱动的file_operations 结构体中的成员函数


这里先介绍一下字符设备的开发流程:字符设备驱动是通过设备号 与上位机程序连接。而上位机程序对驱动的控制则是通过文件操作,即read、write、ioctl等完成。

  • ps.(对于Linux系统而言,一切皆文件,驱动加载成功后,会在/proc/devices里面添加驱动节点号信息)

因此一个字符设备驱动应包含1. 设备号的注册、卸载2. 文件操作两个功能,注册的设备号用于提供接口,而文件操作用于对驱动的操作。

字符设备驱动的结构如下图所示:

对于cdev_init函数中,建立file_operations之间的连接的疑问,看一下cdev_init的实现

void cdev_init(struct cdev *cdev, const struct file_operations *fops)

    memset(cdev, 0, sizeof *cdev);
    INIT_LIST_HEAD(&cdev->list);
    kobject_init(&cdev->kobj, &ktype_cdev_default);
    cdev->ops = fops;

可以看出,最后的一个语句cdev->ops = fops;完成了在cdev中的file_operations的绑定
下面从程序语言角度感性的认识一下设备号的注册、卸载函数原型,和文件操作函数原型。

1.1 字符设备驱动模块加载与卸载函数

//加载函数
static int __init xxx_init(void)

        ... ...

//卸载函数
static int __exit xxx_exit(void)

        ... ...

1.2 字符设备驱动的file_operations 结构体中的成员函数

static const struct file_operations xxx_fileops = 
    .owner  = THIS_MODULE,
    .write  = xxx_write,
    .read   = xxx_read,
    .open   = xxx_open,
    .unlocked_ioctl  = xxx_ioctl,
    ... ...
;

static int xxx_open( struct inode *inodes, struct file *filp )

        ... ...

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

        ... ...

static ssize_t xxx_write( struct file *filp, const char __user *buffer, size_t size, loff_t *f_pos )

        ... ...

static ssize_t xxx_read( struct file *filp, const char __user *buffer, size_t size, loff_t *f_pos )

        ... ...

2. 字符设备驱动——设备号注册卸载

以我写的字符设备驱动源代码为例,路径为linux-3.4.2\drivers\char\s3c2440_leds.c,文章后附有完整的代码
设备号的注册由static int __init s3c2440_leds_init(void)完成
设备号的卸载由static int __init s3c2440_leds_exit(void)完成
首先分析设备号的注册,然后分析卸载

2.1 设备号注册

设备号分为主设备号和次设备号,若源代码中定义了主设备号(次设备号一般为0),那么可以直接完成设备号的注册,其流程为

注册成功后,可通过cat /proc/devices命令查看设备号

2.2 设备号注销

相比设备号的注册,注销流程就十分简单:

3. 字符设备驱动——文件操作

上位机程序首先要调用open函数打开此驱动,具体方法就是,打开该设备号对应的文件,一般而言,该设备号文件在/dev/文件夹下,驱动在内核中注册成功后会在/proc/devices中包含设备号信息,但/dev/文件夹内并没有创建该设备号对应的文件,因此需要手动创建该设备号文件,命令为:

mknod /dev/leds c 230 0

表示在/dev文件夹下创建名为leds的字符设备文件,其主设备号为230,次设备号为0。
字符设备文件名可以另取,但设备号一定要对应/proc/devices里面的设备号。

然后通过fd = open("/dev/leds",0);完成设备驱动的打开

当上位机程序通过调用open函数打开(链接上)相应的驱动程序后,open函数会返回一个==文件描述符==暂且记为fd,然后对该驱动的read、write、ioctl等操作都可以通过使用fd完成。简单的字符设备驱动程序大多采用ioctl函数控制驱动程序,而这个ioctl函数本身也不难,其实现为:

static long s3c2440_leds_ioctl( struct file  *file, unsigned int cmd, unsigned long arg )

函数中
第一个参数:表示要操作的文件描述符
第二个参数:表示传递的命令字
第三个参数:表示传递的变量字
第二个参数和第三个参数的含义没有硬性规定,传递的参数符合对应的关键字限定类型即可

下面的给出示例参考

static long s3c2440_leds_ioctl( struct file  *file, unsigned int cmd, unsigned long arg )

    printk(DRV_NAME "\tRecv cmd: %u\n", cmd);
    printk(DRV_NAME "\tRecv arg: %lu\n", arg);
    //IO operations function.
    if(arg > 4) 
        return -EINVAL;
    

    switch (cmd) 
        case IOCTL_LED_ON:          //#define IOCTL_LED_ON 1
            s3c2410_gpio_setpin(S3C2410_GPF(arg+3), 0);//Set pin
            printk("Open LED %lu ",arg);
        return 0;

        case IOCTL_LED_OFF:         //#define IOCTL_LED_OFF 0
            s3c2410_gpio_setpin(S3C2410_GPF(arg+3), 1);
            printk("Close LED %lu ",arg);
        return 0;

        default:
            return -EINVAL;
