1 | Kernel CAPI Interface to Hardware Drivers | ||
2 | ----------------------------------------- | ||
3 | |||
4 | 1. Overview | ||
5 | |||
6 | From the CAPI 2.0 specification: | ||
7 | COMMON-ISDN-API (CAPI) is an application programming interface standard used | ||
8 | to access ISDN equipment connected to basic rate interfaces (BRI) and primary | ||
9 | rate interfaces (PRI). | ||
10 | |||
11 | Kernel CAPI operates as a dispatching layer between CAPI applications and CAPI | ||
12 | hardware drivers. Hardware drivers register ISDN devices (controllers, in CAPI | ||
13 | lingo) with Kernel CAPI to indicate their readiness to provide their service | ||
14 | to CAPI applications. CAPI applications also register with Kernel CAPI, | ||
15 | requesting association with a CAPI device. Kernel CAPI then dispatches the | ||
16 | application registration to an available device, forwarding it to the | ||
17 | corresponding hardware driver. Kernel CAPI then forwards CAPI messages in both | ||
18 | directions between the application and the hardware driver. | ||
19 | |||
20 | Format and semantics of CAPI messages are specified in the CAPI 2.0 standard. | ||
21 | This standard is freely available from http://www.capi.org. | ||
22 | |||
23 | |||
24 | 2. Driver and Device Registration | ||
25 | |||
26 | CAPI drivers optionally register themselves with Kernel CAPI by calling the | ||
27 | Kernel CAPI function register_capi_driver() with a pointer to a struct | ||
28 | capi_driver. This structure must be filled with the name and revision of the | ||
29 | driver, and optionally a pointer to a callback function, add_card(). The | ||
30 | registration can be revoked by calling the function unregister_capi_driver() | ||
31 | with a pointer to the same struct capi_driver. | ||
32 | |||
33 | CAPI drivers must register each of the ISDN devices they control with Kernel | ||
34 | CAPI by calling the Kernel CAPI function attach_capi_ctr() with a pointer to a | ||
35 | struct capi_ctr before they can be used. This structure must be filled with | ||
36 | the names of the driver and controller, and a number of callback function | ||
37 | pointers which are subsequently used by Kernel CAPI for communicating with the | ||
38 | driver. The registration can be revoked by calling the function | ||
39 | detach_capi_ctr() with a pointer to the same struct capi_ctr. | ||
40 | |||
41 | Before the device can be actually used, the driver must fill in the device | ||
42 | information fields 'manu', 'version', 'profile' and 'serial' in the capi_ctr | ||
43 | structure of the device, and signal its readiness by calling capi_ctr_ready(). | ||
44 | From then on, Kernel CAPI may call the registered callback functions for the | ||
45 | device. | ||
46 | |||
47 | If the device becomes unusable for any reason (shutdown, disconnect ...), the | ||
48 | driver has to call capi_ctr_reseted(). This will prevent further calls to the | ||
49 | callback functions by Kernel CAPI. | ||
50 | |||
51 | |||
52 | 3. Application Registration and Communication | ||
53 | |||
54 | Kernel CAPI forwards registration requests from applications (calls to CAPI | ||
55 | operation CAPI_REGISTER) to an appropriate hardware driver by calling its | ||
56 | register_appl() callback function. A unique Application ID (ApplID, u16) is | ||
57 | allocated by Kernel CAPI and passed to register_appl() along with the | ||
58 | parameter structure provided by the application. This is analogous to the | ||
59 | open() operation on regular files or character devices. | ||
60 | |||
61 | After a successful return from register_appl(), CAPI messages from the | ||
62 | application may be passed to the driver for the device via calls to the | ||
63 | send_message() callback function. The CAPI message to send is stored in the | ||
64 | data portion of an skb. Conversely, the driver may call Kernel CAPI's | ||
65 | capi_ctr_handle_message() function to pass a received CAPI message to Kernel | ||
66 | CAPI for forwarding to an application, specifying its ApplID. | ||
67 | |||
68 | Deregistration requests (CAPI operation CAPI_RELEASE) from applications are | ||
69 | forwarded as calls to the release_appl() callback function, passing the same | ||
70 | ApplID as with register_appl(). After return from release_appl(), no CAPI | ||
71 | messages for that application may be passed to or from the device anymore. | ||
72 | |||
73 | |||
74 | 4. Data Structures | ||
75 | |||
76 | 4.1 struct capi_driver | ||
77 | |||
78 | This structure describes a Kernel CAPI driver itself. It is used in the | ||
79 | register_capi_driver() and unregister_capi_driver() functions, and contains | ||
80 | the following non-private fields, all to be set by the driver before calling | ||
81 | register_capi_driver(): | ||
82 | |||
83 | char name[32] | ||
84 | the name of the driver, as a zero-terminated ASCII string | ||
85 | char revision[32] | ||
86 | the revision number of the driver, as a zero-terminated ASCII string | ||
87 | int (*add_card)(struct capi_driver *driver, capicardparams *data) | ||
88 | a callback function pointer (may be NULL) | ||
89 | |||
90 | |||
91 | 4.2 struct capi_ctr | ||
92 | |||
93 | This structure describes an ISDN device (controller) handled by a Kernel CAPI | ||
94 | driver. After registration via the attach_capi_ctr() function it is passed to | ||
95 | all controller specific lower layer interface and callback functions to | ||
96 | identify the controller to operate on. | ||
97 | |||
98 | It contains the following non-private fields: | ||
99 | |||
100 | - to be set by the driver before calling attach_capi_ctr(): | ||
101 | |||
102 | struct module *owner | ||
103 | pointer to the driver module owning the device | ||
104 | |||
105 | void *driverdata | ||
106 | an opaque pointer to driver specific data, not touched by Kernel CAPI | ||
107 | |||

110 | |||

115 | (optional) pointer to a callback function for sending firmware and | ||
116 | configuration data to the device | ||
117 | |||
118 | void (*reset_ctr)(struct capi_ctr *ctrlr) | ||

125 | pointers to callback functions for registration and deregistration of | ||
126 | applications with the device | ||
127 | |||
128 | u16 (*send_message)(struct capi_ctr *ctrlr, struct sk_buff *skb) | ||
129 | pointer to a callback function for sending a CAPI message to the | ||
130 | device | ||
131 | |||
132 | char *(*procinfo)(struct capi_ctr *ctrlr) | ||
133 | pointer to a callback function returning the entry for the device in | ||
134 | the CAPI controller info table, /proc/capi/controller | ||
135 | |||
136 | read_proc_t *ctr_read_proc | ||
137 | pointer to the read_proc callback function for the device's proc file | ||
138 | system entry, /proc/capi/controllers/<n>; will be called with a | ||
139 | pointer to the device's capi_ctr structure as the last (data) argument | ||
