+PHY Management
+--------------
+
+The physical link (i2c, ...) management is defined by the following struture:
+
+struct nfc_phy_ops {
+        int (*write)(void *dev_id, struct sk_buff *skb);
+        int (*enable)(void *dev_id);
+        void (*disable)(void *dev_id);
+};
+
+enable(): turn the phy on (power on), make it ready to transfer data
+disable(): turn the phy off
+write(): Send a data frame to the chip. Note that to enable higher
+layers such as an llc to store the frame for re-emission, this function must
+not alter the skb. It must also not return a positive result (return 0 for
+success, negative for failure).
+
+Data coming from the chip shall be sent directly to nfc_hci_recv_frame().
+
+LLC
+---
+
+Communication between the CPU and the chip often requires some link layer
+protocol. Those are isolated as modules managed by the HCI layer. There are
+currently two modules : nop (raw transfert) and shdlc.
+A new llc must implement the following functions:
+
+struct nfc_llc_ops {
+        void *(*init) (struct nfc_hci_dev *hdev, xmit_to_drv_t xmit_to_drv,
+                       rcv_to_hci_t rcv_to_hci, int tx_headroom,
+                       int tx_tailroom, int *rx_headroom, int *rx_tailroom,
+                       llc_failure_t llc_failure);
+        void (*deinit) (struct nfc_llc *llc);
+        int (*start) (struct nfc_llc *llc);
+        int (*stop) (struct nfc_llc *llc);
+        void (*rcv_from_drv) (struct nfc_llc *llc, struct sk_buff *skb);
+        int (*xmit_from_hci) (struct nfc_llc *llc, struct sk_buff *skb);
+};
+
+- init() : allocate and init your private storage
+- deinit() : cleanup
+- start() : establish the logical connection
+- stop () : terminate the logical connection
+- rcv_from_drv() : handle data coming from the chip, going to HCI
+- xmit_from_hci() : handle data sent by HCI, going to the chip
 
-Most chips use shdlc to ensure integrity and delivery ordering of the HCP
-frames between the host controller (the chip) and hosts (entities connected
-to the chip, like the cpu). In order to simplify writing the driver, an shdlc
-layer is available for use by the driver.
-When used, the driver actually registers with shdlc, and shdlc will register
-with HCI. HCI sees shdlc as the driver and thus send its HCP frames
-through shdlc->xmit.
-SHDLC adds a new execution context (nfc_shdlc_sm_work()) to run its state
-machine and handle both its rx and tx path.
+The llc must be registered with nfc before it can be used. Do that by
+calling nfc_llc_register(const char *name, struct nfc_llc_ops *ops);
+
+Again, note that the llc does not handle the physical link. It is thus very
+easy to mix any physical link with any llc for a given chip driver.
