s390-drivers is generated using the docbook comments. It should
eventually supersede Documentation/s390/cds.txt.

59 | <title>Introduction</title> | ||
60 | <para> | ||
61 | This document describes the interfaces available for device drivers that | ||
62 | drive s390 based channel attached devices. This includes interfaces for | ||
63 | interaction with the hardware and interfaces for interacting with the | ||
64 | common driver core. Those interfaces are provided by the s390 common I/O | ||
65 | layer. | ||
66 | </para> | ||
67 | <para> | ||
68 | The document assumes a familarity with the technical terms associated | ||
69 | with the s390 channel I/O architecture. For a description of this | ||
70 | architecture, please refer to the "z/Architecture: Principles of | ||
71 | Operation", IBM publication no. SA22-7832. | ||
72 | </para> | ||
73 | <para> | ||
74 | While most I/O devices on a s390 system are typically driven through the | ||
75 | channel I/O mechanism described here, there are various other methods | ||
76 | (like the diag interface). These are out of the scope of this document. | ||
77 | </para> | ||
78 | <para> | ||
79 | Some additional information can also be found in the kernel source | ||
80 | under Documentation/s390/driver-model.txt. | ||

83 | <chapter id="ccw"> | ||
84 | <title>The ccw bus</title> | ||
85 | <para> | ||
86 | The ccw bus typically contains the majority of devices available to | ||
87 | a s390 system. Named after the channel command word (ccw), the basic | ||
88 | command structure used to address its devices, the ccw bus contains | ||
89 | so-called channel attached devices. They are addressed via subchannels, | ||
90 | visible on the css bus. A device driver, however, will never interact | ||
91 | with the subchannel directly, but only via the device on the ccw bus, | ||
92 | the ccw device. | ||
93 | </para> | ||
94 | <sect1 id="channelIO"> | ||
95 | <title>I/O functions for channel-attached devices</title> | ||
96 | <para> | ||
97 | Some hardware structures have been translated into C structures for use | ||
98 | by the common I/O layer and device drivers. For more information on | ||
99 | the hardware structures represented here, please consult the Principles | ||
100 | of Operation. | ||

104 | <sect1 id="ccwdev"> | ||
105 | <title>ccw devices</title> | ||
106 | <para> | ||
107 | Devices that want to initiate channel I/O need to attach to the ccw bus. | ||
108 | Interaction with the driver core is done via the common I/O layer, which | ||
109 | provides the abstractions of ccw devices and ccw device drivers. | ||
110 | </para> | ||
111 | <para> | ||
112 | The functions that initiate or terminate channel I/O all act upon a | ||
113 | ccw device structure. Device drivers must not bypass those functions | ||
114 | or strange side effects may happen. | ||

122 | <para> | ||
123 | The channel-measurement facility provides a means to collect | ||
124 | measurement data which is made available by the channel subsystem | ||
125 | for each channel attached device. | ||

133 | <title>The ccwgroup bus</title> | ||
134 | <para> | ||
135 | The ccwgroup bus only contains artificial devices, created by the user. | ||
136 | Many networking devices (e.g. qeth) are in fact composed of several | ||
137 | ccw devices (like read, write and data channel for qeth). The | ||
138 | ccwgroup bus provides a mechanism to create a meta-device which | ||
139 | contains those ccw devices as slave devices and can be associated | ||
140 | with the netdevice. | ||
