4 | Contact: Alan Stern <stern@rowland.harvard.edu> | ||
5 | Description: | ||
6 | Each USB device directory will contain a file named | ||
7 | power/autosuspend. This file holds the time (in seconds) | ||
8 | the device must be idle before it will be autosuspended. | ||
9 | 0 means the device will be autosuspended as soon as | ||
10 | possible. Negative values will prevent the device from | ||
11 | being autosuspended at all, and writing a negative value | ||
12 | will resume the device if it is already suspended. | ||
13 | |||
14 | The autosuspend delay for newly-created devices is set to | ||
15 | the value of the usbcore.autosuspend module parameter. | ||

19 | KernelVersion: 2.6.21 | ||
20 | Contact: Alan Stern <stern@rowland.harvard.edu> | ||
21 | Description: | ||
22 | Each USB device directory will contain a file named | ||
23 | power/level. This file holds a power-level setting for | ||
24 | the device, one of "on", "auto", or "suspend". | ||
25 | |||
26 | "on" means that the device is not allowed to autosuspend, | ||
27 | although normal suspends for system sleep will still | ||
28 | be honored. "auto" means the device will autosuspend | ||
29 | and autoresume in the usual manner, according to the | ||
30 | capabilities of its driver. "suspend" means the device | ||
31 | is forced into a suspended state and it will not autoresume | ||
32 | in response to I/O requests. However remote-wakeup requests | ||
33 | from the device may still be enabled (the remote-wakeup | ||
34 | setting is controlled separately by the power/wakeup | ||
35 | attribute). | ||
36 | |||
37 | During normal use, devices should be left in the "auto" | ||
38 | level. The other levels are meant for administrative uses. | ||
39 | If you want to suspend a device immediately but leave it | ||
40 | free to wake up in response to I/O requests, you should | ||
41 | write "0" to power/autosuspend. | ||

1 | S3C2410 DMA | ||
2 | =========== | ||
3 | |||
4 | Introduction | ||
5 | ------------ | ||
6 | |||
7 | The kernel provides an interface to manage DMA transfers | ||
8 | using the DMA channels in the cpu, so that the central | ||
9 | duty of managing channel mappings, and programming the | ||
10 | channel generators is in one place. | ||
11 | |||
12 | |||
13 | DMA Channel Ordering | ||
14 | -------------------- | ||
15 | |||
16 | Many of the range do not have connections for the DMA | ||
17 | channels to all sources, which means that some devices | ||
18 | have a restricted number of channels that can be used. | ||
19 | |||
20 | To allow flexibilty for each cpu type and board, the | ||
21 | dma code can be given an dma ordering structure which | ||
22 | allows the order of channel search to be specified, as | ||
23 | well as allowing the prohibition of certain claims. | ||
24 | |||
25 | struct s3c24xx_dma_order has a list of channels, and | ||
26 | each channel within has a slot for a list of dma | ||
27 | channel numbers. The slots are searched in order, for | ||
28 | the presence of a dma channel number with DMA_CH_VALID | ||
29 | orred in. | ||
30 | |||
31 | If the order has the flag DMA_CH_NEVER set, then after | ||
32 | checking the channel list, the system will return no | ||
33 | found channel, thus denying the request. | ||
34 | |||
35 | A board support file can call s3c24xx_dma_order_set() | ||
36 | to register an complete ordering set. The routine will | ||
37 | copy the data, so the original can be discared with | ||
38 | __initdata. | ||

1 | CPU load | ||
2 | -------- | ||
3 | |||
4 | Linux exports various bits of information via `/proc/stat' and | ||
5 | `/proc/uptime' that userland tools, such as top(1), use to calculate | ||
6 | the average time system spent in a particular state, for example: | ||
7 | |||
8 | $ iostat | ||
9 | Linux 2.6.18.3-exp (linmac) 02/20/2007 | ||
10 | |||
11 | avg-cpu: %user %nice %system %iowait %steal %idle | ||
12 | 10.01 0.00 2.92 5.44 0.00 81.63 | ||
13 | |||
14 | ... | ||
15 | |||
16 | Here the system thinks that over the default sampling period the | ||
17 | system spent 10.01% of the time doing work in user space, 2.92% in the | ||
18 | kernel, and was overall 81.63% of the time idle. | ||
19 | |||
20 | In most cases the `/proc/stat' information reflects the reality quite | ||
21 | closely, however due to the nature of how/when the kernel collects | ||
22 | this data sometimes it can not be trusted at all. | ||
23 | |||
24 | So how is this information collected? Whenever timer interrupt is | ||
25 | signalled the kernel looks what kind of task was running at this | ||
26 | moment and increments the counter that corresponds to this tasks | ||
27 | kind/state. The problem with this is that the system could have | ||
28 | switched between various states multiple times between two timer | ||
29 | interrupts yet the counter is incremented only for the last state. | ||
30 | |||
31 | |||
32 | Example | ||
33 | ------- | ||
34 | |||
35 | If we imagine the system with one task that periodically burns cycles | ||
36 | in the following manner: | ||
37 | |||
38 | time line between two timer interrupts | ||
39 | |--------------------------------------| | ||
40 | ^ ^ | ||
41 | |_ something begins working | | ||
42 | |_ something goes to sleep | ||
43 | (only to be awaken quite soon) | ||
44 | |||
45 | In the above situation the system will be 0% loaded according to the | ||
46 | `/proc/stat' (since the timer interrupt will always happen when the | ||
47 | system is executing the idle handler), but in reality the load is | ||
48 | closer to 99%. | ||
49 | |||
50 | One can imagine many more situations where this behavior of the kernel | ||
51 | will lead to quite erratic information inside `/proc/stat'. | ||

257 | What: ACPI hotkey driver (CONFIG_ACPI_HOTKEY) | ||
258 | When: 2.6.21 | ||
259 | Why: hotkey.c was an attempt to consolidate multiple drivers that use | ||
260 | ACPI to implement hotkeys. However, hotkeys are not documented | ||
261 | in the ACPI specification, so the drivers used undocumented | ||
262 | vendor-specific hooks and turned out to be more different than | ||
263 | the same. | ||
264 | |||
265 | Further, the keys and the features supplied by each platform | ||
266 | are different, so there will always be a need for | ||
267 | platform-specific drivers. | ||
268 | |||
269 | So the new plan is to delete hotkey.c and instead, work on the | ||
270 | platform specific drivers to try to make them look the same | ||

307 | (interfaces don't return errors so memory allocation can't be | ||
308 | handled, calling contexts of these interfaces make handling | ||

182 | Secure operations are initiated by acquiring a key using the klog program. A | ||
183 | very primitive klog program is available at: | ||
184 | |||
185 | http://people.redhat.com/~dhowells/rxrpc/klog.c | ||
186 | |||
187 | This should be compiled by: | ||
188 | |||
189 | make klog LDLIBS="-lcrypto -lcrypt -lkrb4 -lkeyutils" | ||
190 | |||
191 | And then run as: | ||
192 | |||
193 | ./klog | ||
194 | |||
195 | Assuming it's successful, this adds a key of type RxRPC, named for the service | ||
196 | and cell, eg: "afs@<cellname>". This can be viewed with the keyctl program or | ||
197 | by cat'ing /proc/keys: | ||
198 | |||
199 | [root@andromeda ~]# keyctl show | ||
200 | Session Keyring | ||
201 | -3 --alswrv 0 0 keyring: _ses.3268 | ||

203 | 111416553 --als--v 0 0 \_ rxrpc: afs@CAMBRIDGE.REDHAT.COM | ||
204 | |||
205 | Currently the username, realm, password and proposed ticket lifetime are | ||
206 | compiled in to the program. | ||
207 | |||
208 | It is not required to acquire a key before using AFS facilities, but if one is | ||
209 | not acquired then all operations will be governed by the anonymous user parts | ||
210 | of the ACLs. | ||
211 | |||
212 | If a key is acquired, then all AFS operations, including mounts and automounts, | ||
213 | made by a possessor of that key will be secured with that key. | ||
214 | |||
215 | If a file is opened with a particular key and then the file descriptor is | ||
216 | passed to a process that doesn't have that key (perhaps over an AF_UNIX | ||
217 | socket), then the operations on the file will be made with key that was used to | ||
218 | open the file. | ||

2030 | |||
2031 | I/O counter: chars read | ||
2032 | The number of bytes which this task has caused to be read from storage. This | ||
2033 | is simply the sum of bytes which this process passed to read() and pread(). | ||
2034 | It includes things like tty IO and it is unaffected by whether or not actual | ||
2035 | physical disk IO was required (the read might have been satisfied from | ||
2036 | pagecache) | ||
2037 | |||
2038 | |||
2039 | wchar | ||
2040 | ----- | ||
2041 | |||
2042 | I/O counter: chars written | ||
2043 | The number of bytes which this task has caused, or shall cause to be written | ||
2044 | to disk. Similar caveats apply here as with rchar. | ||
2045 | |||
2046 | |||
2047 | syscr | ||
2048 | ----- | ||
2049 | |||
2050 | I/O counter: read syscalls | ||
2051 | Attempt to count the number of read I/O operations, i.e. syscalls like read() | ||
2052 | and pread(). | ||
2053 | |||
2054 | |||
2055 | syscw | ||
2056 | ----- | ||
2057 | |||
2058 | I/O counter: write syscalls | ||
2059 | Attempt to count the number of write I/O operations, i.e. syscalls like | ||
2060 | write() and pwrite(). | ||
2061 | |||
2062 | |||
2063 | read_bytes | ||
2064 | ---------- | ||
2065 | |||
2066 | I/O counter: bytes read | ||
2067 | Attempt to count the number of bytes which this process really did cause to | ||
2068 | be fetched from the storage layer. Done at the submit_bio() level, so it is | ||
2069 | accurate for block-backed filesystems. <please add status regarding NFS and | ||
2070 | CIFS at a later time> | ||
2071 | |||
2072 | |||
2073 | write_bytes | ||
2074 | ----------- | ||
2075 | |||
2076 | I/O counter: bytes written | ||
2077 | Attempt to count the number of bytes which this process caused to be sent to | ||
2078 | the storage layer. This is done at page-dirtying time. | ||
2079 | |||
2080 | |||
2081 | cancelled_write_bytes | ||
2082 | --------------------- | ||
2083 | |||
2084 | The big inaccuracy here is truncate. If a process writes 1MB to a file and | ||
2085 | then deletes the file, it will in fact perform no writeout. But it will have | ||
2086 | been accounted as having caused 1MB of write. | ||
2087 | In other words: The number of bytes which this process caused to not happen, | ||
2088 | by truncating pagecache. A task can cause "negative" IO too. If this task | ||
2089 | truncates some dirty pagecache, some IO which another task has been accounted | ||
2090 | for (in it's write_bytes) will not be happening. We _could_ just subtract that | ||
2091 | from the truncating task's write_bytes, but there is information loss in doing | ||
2092 | that. | ||
2093 | |||
2094 | |||
2095 | Note | ||
2096 | ---- | ||
2097 | |||
2098 | At its current implementation state, this is a bit racy on 32-bit machines: if | ||
2099 | process A reads process B's /proc/pid/io while process B is updating one of | ||
2100 | those 64-bit counters, process A could see an intermediate result. | ||
2101 | |||

250 | Emulating Open Drain Signals | ||
251 | ---------------------------- | ||
252 | Sometimes shared signals need to use "open drain" signaling, where only the | ||
253 | low signal level is actually driven. (That term applies to CMOS transistors; | ||
254 | "open collector" is used for TTL.) A pullup resistor causes the high signal | ||
255 | level. This is sometimes called a "wire-AND"; or more practically, from the | ||
256 | negative logic (low=true) perspective this is a "wire-OR". | ||
257 | |||
258 | One common example of an open drain signal is a shared active-low IRQ line. | ||
259 | Also, bidirectional data bus signals sometimes use open drain signals. | ||
260 | |||
261 | Some GPIO controllers directly support open drain outputs; many don't. When | ||
262 | you need open drain signaling but your hardware doesn't directly support it, | ||
263 | there's a common idiom you can use to emulate it with any GPIO pin that can | ||
264 | be used as either an input or an output: | ||
265 | |||
266 | LOW: gpio_direction_output(gpio, 0) ... this drives the signal | ||
267 | and overrides the pullup. | ||
268 | |||
269 | HIGH: gpio_direction_input(gpio) ... this turns off the output, | ||
270 | so the pullup (or some other device) controls the signal. | ||
271 | |||
272 | If you are "driving" the signal high but gpio_get_value(gpio) reports a low | ||
273 | value (after the appropriate rise time passes), you know some other component | ||
274 | is driving the shared signal low. That's not necessarily an error. As one | ||
275 | common example, that's how I2C clocks are stretched: a slave that needs a | ||
276 | slower clock delays the rising edge of SCK, and the I2C master adjusts its | ||
277 | signaling rate accordingly. | ||

93 | Implementation Details | ||
94 | ---------------------- | ||
95 | |||
96 | Future driver development should bear in mind that the following registers have | ||
97 | different functions on the 627EHF and the 627DHG. Some registers also have | ||
98 | different power-on default values, but BIOS should already be loading | ||
99 | appropriate defaults. Note that bank selection must be performed as is currently | ||
100 | done in the driver for all register addresses. | ||
101 | |||
102 | 0x49: only on DHG, selects temperature source for AUX fan, CPU fan0 | ||
103 | 0x4a: not completely documented for the EHF and the DHG documentation assigns | ||
104 | different behavior to bits 7 and 6, including extending the temperature | ||
105 | input selection to SmartFan I, not just SmartFan III. Testing on the EHF | ||
106 | will reveal whether they are compatible or not. | ||
107 | |||
108 | 0x58: Chip ID: 0xa1=EHF 0xc1=DHG | ||
109 | 0x5e: only on DHG, has bits to enable "current mode" temperature detection and | ||
110 | critical temperature protection | ||
111 | 0x45b: only on EHF, bit 3, vin4 alarm (EHF supports 10 inputs, only 9 on DHG) | ||
112 | 0x552: only on EHF, vin4 | ||
113 | 0x558: only on EHF, vin4 high limit | ||
114 | 0x559: only on EHF, vin4 low limit | ||
115 | 0x6b: only on DHG, SYS fan critical temperature | ||
116 | 0x6c: only on DHG, CPU fan0 critical temperature | ||
117 | 0x6d: only on DHG, AUX fan critical temperature | ||
118 | 0x6e: only on DHG, CPU fan1 critical temperature | ||
119 | |||
120 | 0x50-0x55 and 0x650-0x657 are marked "Test Register" for the EHF, but "Reserved | ||
121 | Register" for the DHG | ||
122 | |||
123 | The DHG also supports PECI, where the DHG queries Intel CPU temperatures, and | ||
124 | the ICH8 southbridge gets that data via PECI from the DHG, so that the | ||
125 | southbridge drives the fans. And the DHG supports SST, a one-wire serial bus. | ||

5 | About this software | 5 | Introduction |
6 | ------------------- | 6 | ------------ |
7 | 7 | ||
8 | The goal of this project is to develop a linux driver for Broadcom | 8 | Many of the wireless devices found in modern notebook computers are |
9 | BCM43xx chips, based on the specification at | 9 | based on the wireless chips produced by Broadcom. These devices have |
10 | http://bcm-specs.sipsolutions.net/ | 10 | been a problem for Linux users as there is no open-source driver |
11 | available. In addition, Broadcom has not released specifications | ||
12 | for the device, and driver availability has been limited to the | ||
13 | binary-only form used in the GPL versions of AP hardware such as the | ||
14 | Linksys WRT54G, and the Windows and OS X drivers. Before this project | ||
15 | began, the only way to use these devices were to use the Windows or | ||
16 | OS X drivers with either the Linuxant or ndiswrapper modules. There | ||
17 | is a strong penalty if this method is used as loading the binary-only | ||
18 | module "taints" the kernel, and no kernel developer will help diagnose | ||
19 | any kernel problems. | ||
11 | 20 | ||
12 | The project page is http://bcm43xx.berlios.de/ | 21 | Development |
22 | ----------- | ||
13 | 23 | ||
24 | This driver has been developed using | ||
25 | a clean-room technique that is described at | ||
26 | http://bcm-specs.sipsolutions.net/ReverseEngineeringProcess. For legal | ||
27 | reasons, none of the clean-room crew works on the on the Linux driver, | ||
28 | and none of the Linux developers sees anything but the specifications, | ||
29 | which are the ultimate product of the reverse-engineering group. | ||
14 | 30 | ||
15 | Requirements | 31 | Software |
16 | ------------ | 32 | -------- |
33 | |||
34 | Since the release of the 2.6.17 kernel, the bcm43xx driver has been | ||
35 | distributed with the kernel source, and is prebuilt in most, if not | ||
36 | all, distributions. There is, however, additional software that is | ||
37 | required. The firmware used by the chip is the intellectual property | ||
38 | of Broadcom and they have not given the bcm43xx team redistribution | ||
39 | rights to this firmware. Since we cannot legally redistribute | ||
40 | the firwmare we cannot include it with the driver. Furthermore, it | ||
41 | cannot be placed in the downloadable archives of any distributing | ||
42 | organization; therefore, the user is responsible for obtaining the | ||
43 | firmware and placing it in the appropriate location so that the driver | ||
44 | can find it when initializing. | ||
45 | |||
46 | To help with this process, the bcm43xx developers provide a separate | ||
47 | program named bcm43xx-fwcutter to "cut" the firmware out of a | ||
48 | Windows or OS X driver and write the extracted files to the proper | ||
49 | location. This program is usually provided with the distribution; | ||
50 | however, it may be downloaded from | ||
51 | |||
52 | http://developer.berlios.de/project/showfiles.php?group_id=4547 | ||
17 | 53 | ||
18 | 1) Linux Kernel 2.6.16 or later | 54 | The firmware is available in two versions. V3 firmware is used with |
19 | http://www.kernel.org/ | 55 | the in-kernel bcm43xx driver that uses a software MAC layer called |
56 | SoftMAC, and will have a microcode revision of 0x127 or smaller. The | ||
57 | V4 firmware is used by an out-of-kernel driver employing a variation of | ||
58 | the Devicescape MAC layer known as d80211. Once bcm43xx-d80211 reaches | ||
59 | a satisfactory level of development, it will replace bcm43xx-softmac | ||
60 | in the kernel as it is much more flexible and powerful. | ||
20 | 61 | ||

70 | however, most use '/lib/firmware'. Once this step is completed, | ||
71 | the bcm3xx driver should load when the system is booted. To see | ||
72 | any messages relating to the driver, issue the command 'dmesg | | ||

80 | or a PCI Express version (BCM4311 and BCM4312). In addition, if you | ||
81 | have an early BCM4306 and more than 1 GB RAM, your kernel will need | ||
82 | to be patched. These patches, which are being updated regularly, | ||
83 | are available at ftp://lwfinger.dynalias.org/patches. Look for | ||
84 | combined_2.6.YY.patch. Of course you will need kernel source downloaded | ||

32 | OVERVIEW | ||
33 | ======== | ||
34 | |||
35 | RxRPC is a two-layer protocol. There is a session layer which provides | ||
36 | reliable virtual connections using UDP over IPv4 (or IPv6) as the transport | ||
37 | layer, but implements a real network protocol; and there's the presentation | ||
38 | layer which renders structured data to binary blobs and back again using XDR | ||
39 | (as does SunRPC): | ||

52 | AF_RXRPC provides: | ||
53 | |||
54 | (1) Part of an RxRPC facility for both kernel and userspace applications by | ||
55 | making the session part of it a Linux network protocol (AF_RXRPC). | ||
56 | |||
57 | (2) A two-phase protocol. The client transmits a blob (the request) and then | ||
58 | receives a blob (the reply), and the server receives the request and then | ||
59 | transmits the reply. | ||
60 | |||
61 | (3) Retention of the reusable bits of the transport system set up for one call | ||
62 | to speed up subsequent calls. | ||
63 | |||
64 | (4) A secure protocol, using the Linux kernel's key retention facility to | ||
65 | manage security on the client end. The server end must of necessity be | ||
66 | more active in security negotiations. | ||
67 | |||
68 | AF_RXRPC does not provide XDR marshalling/presentation facilities. That is | ||
69 | left to the application. AF_RXRPC only deals in blobs. Even the operation ID | ||
70 | is just the first four bytes of the request blob, and as such is beyond the | ||
71 | kernel's interest. | ||
72 | |||
73 | |||
74 | Sockets of AF_RXRPC family are: | ||
75 | |||
76 | (1) created as type SOCK_DGRAM; | ||
77 | |||
78 | (2) provided with a protocol of the type of underlying transport they're going | ||
79 | to use - currently only PF_INET is supported. | ||
80 | |||
81 | |||
82 | The Andrew File System (AFS) is an example of an application that uses this and | ||
83 | that has both kernel (filesystem) and userspace (utility) components. | ||

86 | ====================== | ||
87 | RXRPC PROTOCOL SUMMARY | ||
88 | ====================== | ||
89 | |||
90 | An overview of the RxRPC protocol: | ||
91 | |||
92 | (*) RxRPC sits on top of another networking protocol (UDP is the only option | ||
93 | currently), and uses this to provide network transport. UDP ports, for | ||
94 | example, provide transport endpoints. | ||
95 | |||
96 | (*) RxRPC supports multiple virtual "connections" from any given transport | ||
97 | endpoint, thus allowing the endpoints to be shared, even to the same | ||
98 | remote endpoint. | ||
99 | |||
100 | (*) Each connection goes to a particular "service". A connection may not go | ||
101 | to multiple services. A service may be considered the RxRPC equivalent of | ||
102 | a port number. AF_RXRPC permits multiple services to share an endpoint. | ||
103 | |||
104 | (*) Client-originating packets are marked, thus a transport endpoint can be | ||
105 | shared between client and server connections (connections have a | ||
106 | direction). | ||
107 | |||
108 | (*) Up to a billion connections may be supported concurrently between one | ||
109 | local transport endpoint and one service on one remote endpoint. An RxRPC | ||
110 | connection is described by seven numbers: | ||
111 | |||
112 | Local address } | ||
113 | Local port } Transport (UDP) address | ||
114 | Remote address } | ||
115 | Remote port } | ||
116 | Direction | ||
117 | Connection ID | ||
118 | Service ID | ||
119 | |||
120 | (*) Each RxRPC operation is a "call". A connection may make up to four | ||
121 | billion calls, but only up to four calls may be in progress on a | ||
122 | connection at any one time. | ||
123 | |||
124 | (*) Calls are two-phase and asymmetric: the client sends its request data, | ||
125 | which the service receives; then the service transmits the reply data | ||
126 | which the client receives. | ||
127 | |||
128 | (*) The data blobs are of indefinite size, the end of a phase is marked with a | ||
129 | flag in the packet. The number of packets of data making up one blob may | ||
130 | not exceed 4 billion, however, as this would cause the sequence number to | ||
131 | wrap. | ||
132 | |||
133 | (*) The first four bytes of the request data are the service operation ID. | ||
134 | |||
135 | (*) Security is negotiated on a per-connection basis. The connection is | ||
136 | initiated by the first data packet on it arriving. If security is | ||
137 | requested, the server then issues a "challenge" and then the client | ||
138 | replies with a "response". If the response is successful, the security is | ||
139 | set for the lifetime of that connection, and all subsequent calls made | ||
140 | upon it use that same security. In the event that the server lets a | ||
141 | connection lapse before the client, the security will be renegotiated if | ||
142 | the client uses the connection again. | ||
143 | |||
144 | (*) Calls use ACK packets to handle reliability. Data packets are also | ||
145 | explicitly sequenced per call. | ||
146 | |||
147 | (*) There are two types of positive acknowledgement: hard-ACKs and soft-ACKs. | ||
148 | A hard-ACK indicates to the far side that all the data received to a point | ||
149 | has been received and processed; a soft-ACK indicates that the data has | ||
150 | been received but may yet be discarded and re-requested. The sender may | ||
151 | not discard any transmittable packets until they've been hard-ACK'd. | ||
152 | |||
153 | (*) Reception of a reply data packet implicitly hard-ACK's all the data | ||
154 | packets that make up the request. | ||
155 | |||
156 | (*) An call is complete when the request has been sent, the reply has been | ||
157 | received and the final hard-ACK on the last packet of the reply has | ||
158 | reached the server. | ||
159 | |||
160 | (*) An call may be aborted by either end at any time up to its completion. | ||
161 | |||
162 | |||
163 | ===================== | ||
164 | AF_RXRPC DRIVER MODEL | ||
165 | ===================== | ||
166 | |||
167 | About the AF_RXRPC driver: | ||
168 | |||
169 | (*) The AF_RXRPC protocol transparently uses internal sockets of the transport | ||
170 | protocol to represent transport endpoints. | ||
171 | |||
172 | (*) AF_RXRPC sockets map onto RxRPC connection bundles. Actual RxRPC | ||
173 | connections are handled transparently. One client socket may be used to | ||
174 | make multiple simultaneous calls to the same service. One server socket | ||
175 | may handle calls from many clients. | ||
176 | |||
177 | (*) Additional parallel client connections will be initiated to support extra | ||
178 | concurrent calls, up to a tunable limit. | ||
179 | |||
180 | (*) Each connection is retained for a certain amount of time [tunable] after | ||
181 | the last call currently using it has completed in case a new call is made | ||
182 | that could reuse it. | ||
183 | |||
184 | (*) Each internal UDP socket is retained [tunable] for a certain amount of | ||
185 | time [tunable] after the last connection using it discarded, in case a new | ||
186 | connection is made that could use it. | ||
187 | |||
188 | (*) A client-side connection is only shared between calls if they have have | ||
189 | the same key struct describing their security (and assuming the calls | ||
190 | would otherwise share the connection). Non-secured calls would also be | ||
191 | able to share connections with each other. | ||
192 | |||
193 | (*) A server-side connection is shared if the client says it is. | ||
194 | |||
195 | (*) ACK'ing is handled by the protocol driver automatically, including ping | ||
196 | replying. | ||
197 | |||
198 | (*) SO_KEEPALIVE automatically pings the other side to keep the connection | ||
199 | alive [TODO]. | ||
200 | |||
201 | (*) If an ICMP error is received, all calls affected by that error will be | ||
202 | aborted with an appropriate network error passed through recvmsg(). | ||
203 | |||
204 | |||
205 | Interaction with the user of the RxRPC socket: | ||
206 | |||
207 | (*) A socket is made into a server socket by binding an address with a | ||
208 | non-zero service ID. | ||
209 | |||
210 | (*) In the client, sending a request is achieved with one or more sendmsgs, | ||
211 | followed by the reply being received with one or more recvmsgs. | ||
212 | |||
213 | (*) The first sendmsg for a request to be sent from a client contains a tag to | ||
214 | be used in all other sendmsgs or recvmsgs associated with that call. The | ||
215 | tag is carried in the control data. | ||
216 | |||
217 | (*) connect() is used to supply a default destination address for a client | ||
218 | socket. This may be overridden by supplying an alternate address to the | ||
219 | first sendmsg() of a call (struct msghdr::msg_name). | ||
220 | |||
221 | (*) If connect() is called on an unbound client, a random local port will | ||
222 | bound before the operation takes place. | ||
223 | |||
224 | (*) A server socket may also be used to make client calls. To do this, the | ||
225 | first sendmsg() of the call must specify the target address. The server's | ||
226 | transport endpoint is used to send the packets. | ||
227 | |||
228 | (*) Once the application has received the last message associated with a call, | ||
229 | the tag is guaranteed not to be seen again, and so it can be used to pin | ||
230 | client resources. A new call can then be initiated with the same tag | ||
231 | without fear of interference. | ||
232 | |||
233 | (*) In the server, a request is received with one or more recvmsgs, then the | ||
234 | the reply is transmitted with one or more sendmsgs, and then the final ACK | ||
235 | is received with a last recvmsg. | ||
236 | |||
237 | (*) When sending data for a call, sendmsg is given MSG_MORE if there's more | ||
238 | data to come on that call. | ||
239 | |||
240 | (*) When receiving data for a call, recvmsg flags MSG_MORE if there's more | ||
241 | data to come for that call. | ||
242 | |||
243 | (*) When receiving data or messages for a call, MSG_EOR is flagged by recvmsg | ||
244 | to indicate the terminal message for that call. | ||
245 | |||
246 | (*) A call may be aborted by adding an abort control message to the control | ||
247 | data. Issuing an abort terminates the kernel's use of that call's tag. | ||
248 | Any messages waiting in the receive queue for that call will be discarded. | ||
249 | |||
250 | (*) Aborts, busy notifications and challenge packets are delivered by recvmsg, | ||
251 | and control data messages will be set to indicate the context. Receiving | ||
252 | an abort or a busy message terminates the kernel's use of that call's tag. | ||
253 | |||
254 | (*) The control data part of the msghdr struct is used for a number of things: | ||
255 | |||
256 | (*) The tag of the intended or affected call. | ||
257 | |||
258 | (*) Sending or receiving errors, aborts and busy notifications. | ||
259 | |||
260 | (*) Notifications of incoming calls. | ||
261 | |||
262 | (*) Sending debug requests and receiving debug replies [TODO]. | ||
263 | |||
264 | (*) When the kernel has received and set up an incoming call, it sends a | ||
265 | message to server application to let it know there's a new call awaiting | ||
266 | its acceptance [recvmsg reports a special control message]. The server | ||
267 | application then uses sendmsg to assign a tag to the new call. Once that | ||
268 | is done, the first part of the request data will be delivered by recvmsg. | ||
269 | |||
270 | (*) The server application has to provide the server socket with a keyring of | ||
271 | secret keys corresponding to the security types it permits. When a secure | ||
272 | connection is being set up, the kernel looks up the appropriate secret key | ||
273 | in the keyring and then sends a challenge packet to the client and | ||
274 | receives a response packet. The kernel then checks the authorisation of | ||
275 | the packet and either aborts the connection or sets up the security. | ||
276 | |||
277 | (*) The name of the key a client will use to secure its communications is | ||
278 | nominated by a socket option. | ||
279 | |||
280 | |||
281 | Notes on recvmsg: | ||
282 | |||
283 | (*) If there's a sequence of data messages belonging to a particular call on | ||
284 | the receive queue, then recvmsg will keep working through them until: | ||
285 | |||
286 | (a) it meets the end of that call's received data, | ||
287 | |||
288 | (b) it meets a non-data message, | ||
289 | |||
290 | (c) it meets a message belonging to a different call, or | ||
291 | |||
292 | (d) it fills the user buffer. | ||
293 | |||
294 | If recvmsg is called in blocking mode, it will keep sleeping, awaiting the | ||
295 | reception of further data, until one of the above four conditions is met. | ||
296 | |||
297 | (2) MSG_PEEK operates similarly, but will return immediately if it has put any | ||
298 | data in the buffer rather than sleeping until it can fill the buffer. | ||
299 | |||
300 | (3) If a data message is only partially consumed in filling a user buffer, | ||
301 | then the remainder of that message will be left on the front of the queue | ||
302 | for the next taker. MSG_TRUNC will never be flagged. | ||
303 | |||
304 | (4) If there is more data to be had on a call (it hasn't copied the last byte | ||
305 | of the last data message in that phase yet), then MSG_MORE will be | ||
306 | flagged. | ||
307 | |||
308 | |||
309 | ================ | ||
310 | CONTROL MESSAGES | ||
311 | ================ | ||
312 | |||
313 | AF_RXRPC makes use of control messages in sendmsg() and recvmsg() to multiplex | ||
314 | calls, to invoke certain actions and to report certain conditions. These are: | ||
315 | |||
316 | MESSAGE ID SRT DATA MEANING | ||
317 | ======================= === =========== =============================== | ||
318 | RXRPC_USER_CALL_ID sr- User ID App's call specifier | ||
319 | RXRPC_ABORT srt Abort code Abort code to issue/received | ||
320 | RXRPC_ACK -rt n/a Final ACK received | ||
321 | RXRPC_NET_ERROR -rt error num Network error on call | ||
322 | RXRPC_BUSY -rt n/a Call rejected (server busy) | ||
323 | RXRPC_LOCAL_ERROR -rt error num Local error encountered | ||
324 | RXRPC_NEW_CALL -r- n/a New call received | ||
325 | RXRPC_ACCEPT s-- n/a Accept new call | ||
326 | |||
327 | (SRT = usable in Sendmsg / delivered by Recvmsg / Terminal message) | ||
328 | |||
329 | (*) RXRPC_USER_CALL_ID | ||
330 | |||
331 | This is used to indicate the application's call ID. It's an unsigned long | ||
332 | that the app specifies in the client by attaching it to the first data | ||
333 | message or in the server by passing it in association with an RXRPC_ACCEPT | ||
334 | message. recvmsg() passes it in conjunction with all messages except | ||
335 | those of the RXRPC_NEW_CALL message. | ||
336 | |||
337 | (*) RXRPC_ABORT | ||
338 | |||
339 | This is can be used by an application to abort a call by passing it to | ||
340 | sendmsg, or it can be delivered by recvmsg to indicate a remote abort was | ||
341 | received. Either way, it must be associated with an RXRPC_USER_CALL_ID to | ||
342 | specify the call affected. If an abort is being sent, then error EBADSLT | ||
343 | will be returned if there is no call with that user ID. | ||
344 | |||
345 | (*) RXRPC_ACK | ||
346 | |||
347 | This is delivered to a server application to indicate that the final ACK | ||
348 | of a call was received from the client. It will be associated with an | ||
349 | RXRPC_USER_CALL_ID to indicate the call that's now complete. | ||
350 | |||
351 | (*) RXRPC_NET_ERROR | ||
352 | |||
353 | This is delivered to an application to indicate that an ICMP error message | ||
354 | was encountered in the process of trying to talk to the peer. An | ||
355 | errno-class integer value will be included in the control message data | ||
356 | indicating the problem, and an RXRPC_USER_CALL_ID will indicate the call | ||
357 | affected. | ||
358 | |||
359 | (*) RXRPC_BUSY | ||
360 | |||
361 | This is delivered to a client application to indicate that a call was | ||
362 | rejected by the server due to the server being busy. It will be | ||
363 | associated with an RXRPC_USER_CALL_ID to indicate the rejected call. | ||
364 | |||
365 | (*) RXRPC_LOCAL_ERROR | ||
366 | |||
367 | This is delivered to an application to indicate that a local error was | ||
368 | encountered and that a call has been aborted because of it. An | ||
369 | errno-class integer value will be included in the control message data | ||
370 | indicating the problem, and an RXRPC_USER_CALL_ID will indicate the call | ||
371 | affected. | ||
372 | |||
373 | (*) RXRPC_NEW_CALL | ||
374 | |||
375 | This is delivered to indicate to a server application that a new call has | ||
376 | arrived and is awaiting acceptance. No user ID is associated with this, | ||
377 | as a user ID must subsequently be assigned by doing an RXRPC_ACCEPT. | ||
378 | |||
379 | (*) RXRPC_ACCEPT | ||
380 | |||
381 | This is used by a server application to attempt to accept a call and | ||
382 | assign it a user ID. It should be associated with an RXRPC_USER_CALL_ID | ||
383 | to indicate the user ID to be assigned. If there is no call to be | ||
384 | accepted (it may have timed out, been aborted, etc.), then sendmsg will | ||
385 | return error ENODATA. If the user ID is already in use by another call, | ||
386 | then error EBADSLT will be returned. | ||
387 | |||
388 | |||
389 | ============== | ||
390 | SOCKET OPTIONS | ||
391 | ============== | ||
392 | |||
393 | AF_RXRPC sockets support a few socket options at the SOL_RXRPC level: | ||
394 | |||
395 | (*) RXRPC_SECURITY_KEY | ||
396 | |||
397 | This is used to specify the description of the key to be used. The key is | ||
398 | extracted from the calling process's keyrings with request_key() and | ||
399 | should be of "rxrpc" type. | ||
400 | |||
401 | The optval pointer points to the description string, and optlen indicates | ||
402 | how long the string is, without the NUL terminator. | ||
403 | |||
404 | (*) RXRPC_SECURITY_KEYRING | ||
405 | |||
406 | Similar to above but specifies a keyring of server secret keys to use (key | ||
407 | type "keyring"). See the "Security" section. | ||
408 | |||
409 | (*) RXRPC_EXCLUSIVE_CONNECTION | ||
410 | |||
411 | This is used to request that new connections should be used for each call | ||
412 | made subsequently on this socket. optval should be NULL and optlen 0. | ||
413 | |||
414 | (*) RXRPC_MIN_SECURITY_LEVEL | ||
415 | |||
416 | This is used to specify the minimum security level required for calls on | ||
417 | this socket. optval must point to an int containing one of the following | ||
418 | values: | ||
419 | |||
420 | (a) RXRPC_SECURITY_PLAIN | ||
421 | |||
422 | Encrypted checksum only. | ||
423 | |||
424 | (b) RXRPC_SECURITY_AUTH | ||
425 | |||
426 | Encrypted checksum plus packet padded and first eight bytes of packet | ||
427 | encrypted - which includes the actual packet length. | ||
428 | |||
429 | (c) RXRPC_SECURITY_ENCRYPTED | ||
430 | |||
431 | Encrypted checksum plus entire packet padded and encrypted, including | ||
432 | actual packet length. | ||
433 | |||
434 | |||
435 | ======== | ||
436 | SECURITY | ||
437 | ======== | ||
438 | |||
439 | Currently, only the kerberos 4 equivalent protocol has been implemented | ||
440 | (security index 2 - rxkad). This requires the rxkad module to be loaded and, | ||
441 | on the client, tickets of the appropriate type to be obtained from the AFS | ||
442 | kaserver or the kerberos server and installed as "rxrpc" type keys. This is | ||
443 | normally done using the klog program. An example simple klog program can be | ||
444 | found at: | ||
445 | |||
446 | http://people.redhat.com/~dhowells/rxrpc/klog.c | ||
447 | |||
448 | The payload provided to add_key() on the client should be of the following | ||
449 | form: | ||
450 | |||
451 | struct rxrpc_key_sec2_v1 { | ||
452 | uint16_t security_index; /* 2 */ | ||
453 | uint16_t ticket_length; /* length of ticket[] */ | ||
454 | uint32_t expiry; /* time at which expires */ | ||
455 | uint8_t kvno; /* key version number */ | ||
456 | uint8_t __pad[3]; | ||
457 | uint8_t session_key[8]; /* DES session key */ | ||
458 | uint8_t ticket[0]; /* the encrypted ticket */ | ||
459 | }; | ||
460 | |||
461 | Where the ticket blob is just appended to the above structure. | ||
462 | |||
463 | |||
464 | For the server, keys of type "rxrpc_s" must be made available to the server. | ||
465 | They have a description of "<serviceID>:<securityIndex>" (eg: "52:2" for an | ||
466 | rxkad key for the AFS VL service). When such a key is created, it should be | ||
467 | given the server's secret key as the instantiation data (see the example | ||
468 | below). | ||
469 | |||
470 | add_key("rxrpc_s", "52:2", secret_key, 8, keyring); | ||
471 | |||
472 | A keyring is passed to the server socket by naming it in a sockopt. The server | ||
473 | socket then looks the server secret keys up in this keyring when secure | ||
474 | incoming connections are made. This can be seen in an example program that can | ||
475 | be found at: | ||
476 | |||
477 | http://people.redhat.com/~dhowells/rxrpc/listen.c | ||
478 | |||
479 | |||
480 | ==================== | ||
481 | EXAMPLE CLIENT USAGE | ||
482 | ==================== | ||
483 | |||
484 | A client would issue an operation by: | ||
485 | |||
486 | (1) An RxRPC socket is set up by: | ||
487 | |||
488 | client = socket(AF_RXRPC, SOCK_DGRAM, PF_INET); | ||
489 | |||
490 | Where the third parameter indicates the protocol family of the transport | ||
491 | socket used - usually IPv4 but it can also be IPv6 [TODO]. | ||
492 | |||
493 | (2) A local address can optionally be bound: | ||
494 | |||
495 | struct sockaddr_rxrpc srx = { | ||
496 | .srx_family = AF_RXRPC, | ||
497 | .srx_service = 0, /* we're a client */ | ||
498 | .transport_type = SOCK_DGRAM, /* type of transport socket */ | ||
499 | .transport.sin_family = AF_INET, | ||
500 | .transport.sin_port = htons(7000), /* AFS callback */ | ||
501 | .transport.sin_address = 0, /* all local interfaces */ | ||
502 | }; | ||
503 | bind(client, &srx, sizeof(srx)); | ||
504 | |||
505 | This specifies the local UDP port to be used. If not given, a random | ||
506 | non-privileged port will be used. A UDP port may be shared between | ||
507 | several unrelated RxRPC sockets. Security is handled on a basis of | ||
508 | per-RxRPC virtual connection. | ||
509 | |||
510 | (3) The security is set: | ||
511 | |||
512 | const char *key = "AFS:cambridge.redhat.com"; | ||
513 | setsockopt(client, SOL_RXRPC, RXRPC_SECURITY_KEY, key, strlen(key)); | ||
514 | |||
515 | This issues a request_key() to get the key representing the security | ||
516 | context. The minimum security level can be set: | ||
517 | |||
518 | unsigned int sec = RXRPC_SECURITY_ENCRYPTED; | ||
519 | setsockopt(client, SOL_RXRPC, RXRPC_MIN_SECURITY_LEVEL, | ||
520 | &sec, sizeof(sec)); | ||
521 | |||
522 | (4) The server to be contacted can then be specified (alternatively this can | ||
523 | be done through sendmsg): | ||
524 | |||
525 | struct sockaddr_rxrpc srx = { | ||
526 | .srx_family = AF_RXRPC, | ||
527 | .srx_service = VL_SERVICE_ID, | ||
528 | .transport_type = SOCK_DGRAM, /* type of transport socket */ | ||
529 | .transport.sin_family = AF_INET, | ||
530 | .transport.sin_port = htons(7005), /* AFS volume manager */ | ||
531 | .transport.sin_address = ..., | ||
532 | }; | ||
533 | connect(client, &srx, sizeof(srx)); | ||
534 | |||
535 | (5) The request data should then be posted to the server socket using a series | ||
536 | of sendmsg() calls, each with the following control message attached: | ||
537 | |||
538 | RXRPC_USER_CALL_ID - specifies the user ID for this call | ||
539 | |||
540 | MSG_MORE should be set in msghdr::msg_flags on all but the last part of | ||
541 | the request. Multiple requests may be made simultaneously. | ||
542 | |||
543 | If a call is intended to go to a destination other then the default | ||
544 | specified through connect(), then msghdr::msg_name should be set on the | ||
545 | first request message of that call. | ||
546 | |||
547 | (6) The reply data will then be posted to the server socket for recvmsg() to | ||
548 | pick up. MSG_MORE will be flagged by recvmsg() if there's more reply data | ||
549 | for a particular call to be read. MSG_EOR will be set on the terminal | ||
550 | read for a call. | ||
551 | |||
552 | All data will be delivered with the following control message attached: | ||
553 | |||
554 | RXRPC_USER_CALL_ID - specifies the user ID for this call | ||
555 | |||
556 | If an abort or error occurred, this will be returned in the control data | ||
557 | buffer instead, and MSG_EOR will be flagged to indicate the end of that | ||
558 | call. | ||
559 | |||
560 | |||
561 | ==================== | ||
562 | EXAMPLE SERVER USAGE | ||
563 | ==================== | ||
564 | |||
565 | A server would be set up to accept operations in the following manner: | ||
566 | |||
567 | (1) An RxRPC socket is created by: | ||
568 | |||
569 | server = socket(AF_RXRPC, SOCK_DGRAM, PF_INET); | ||
570 | |||
571 | Where the third parameter indicates the address type of the transport | ||
572 | socket used - usually IPv4. | ||
573 | |||
574 | (2) Security is set up if desired by giving the socket a keyring with server | ||
575 | secret keys in it: | ||
576 | |||
577 | keyring = add_key("keyring", "AFSkeys", NULL, 0, | ||
578 | KEY_SPEC_PROCESS_KEYRING); | ||
579 | |||
580 | const char secret_key[8] = { | ||
581 | 0xa7, 0x83, 0x8a, 0xcb, 0xc7, 0x83, 0xec, 0x94 }; | ||
582 | add_key("rxrpc_s", "52:2", secret_key, 8, keyring); | ||
583 | |||
584 | setsockopt(server, SOL_RXRPC, RXRPC_SECURITY_KEYRING, "AFSkeys", 7); | ||
585 | |||
586 | The keyring can be manipulated after it has been given to the socket. This | ||
587 | permits the server to add more keys, replace keys, etc. whilst it is live. | ||
588 | |||
589 | (2) A local address must then be bound: | ||
590 | |||
591 | struct sockaddr_rxrpc srx = { | ||
592 | .srx_family = AF_RXRPC, | ||
593 | .srx_service = VL_SERVICE_ID, /* RxRPC service ID */ | ||
594 | .transport_type = SOCK_DGRAM, /* type of transport socket */ | ||
595 | .transport.sin_family = AF_INET, | ||
596 | .transport.sin_port = htons(7000), /* AFS callback */ | ||
597 | .transport.sin_address = 0, /* all local interfaces */ | ||
598 | }; | ||
599 | bind(server, &srx, sizeof(srx)); | ||
600 | |||
601 | (3) The server is then set to listen out for incoming calls: | ||
602 | |||
603 | listen(server, 100); | ||
604 | |||
605 | (4) The kernel notifies the server of pending incoming connections by sending | ||
606 | it a message for each. This is received with recvmsg() on the server | ||
607 | socket. It has no data, and has a single dataless control message | ||
608 | attached: | ||
609 | |||
610 | RXRPC_NEW_CALL | ||
611 | |||
612 | The address that can be passed back by recvmsg() at this point should be | ||
613 | ignored since the call for which the message was posted may have gone by | ||
614 | the time it is accepted - in which case the first call still on the queue | ||
615 | will be accepted. | ||
616 | |||
617 | (5) The server then accepts the new call by issuing a sendmsg() with two | ||
618 | pieces of control data and no actual data: | ||
619 | |||
620 | RXRPC_ACCEPT - indicate connection acceptance | ||
621 | RXRPC_USER_CALL_ID - specify user ID for this call | ||
622 | |||
623 | (6) The first request data packet will then be posted to the server socket for | ||
624 | recvmsg() to pick up. At that point, the RxRPC address for the call can | ||
625 | be read from the address fields in the msghdr struct. | ||
626 | |||
627 | Subsequent request data will be posted to the server socket for recvmsg() | ||
628 | to collect as it arrives. All but the last piece of the request data will | ||
629 | be delivered with MSG_MORE flagged. | ||
630 | |||
631 | All data will be delivered with the following control message attached: | ||
632 | |||
633 | RXRPC_USER_CALL_ID - specifies the user ID for this call | ||
634 | |||
635 | (8) The reply data should then be posted to the server socket using a series | ||
636 | of sendmsg() calls, each with the following control messages attached: | ||
637 | |||
638 | RXRPC_USER_CALL_ID - specifies the user ID for this call | ||
639 | |||
640 | MSG_MORE should be set in msghdr::msg_flags on all but the last message | ||
641 | for a particular call. | ||
642 | |||
643 | (9) The final ACK from the client will be posted for retrieval by recvmsg() | ||
644 | when it is received. It will take the form of a dataless message with two | ||
645 | control messages attached: | ||
646 | |||
647 | RXRPC_USER_CALL_ID - specifies the user ID for this call | ||
648 | RXRPC_ACK - indicates final ACK (no data) | ||
649 | |||
650 | MSG_EOR will be flagged to indicate that this is the final message for | ||
651 | this call. | ||
652 | |||
653 | (10) Up to the point the final packet of reply data is sent, the call can be | ||
654 | aborted by calling sendmsg() with a dataless message with the following | ||
655 | control messages attached: | ||
656 | |||
657 | RXRPC_USER_CALL_ID - specifies the user ID for this call | ||
658 | RXRPC_ABORT - indicates abort code (4 byte data) | ||
659 | |||
660 | Any packets waiting in the socket's receive queue will be discarded if | ||
661 | this is issued. | ||
662 | |||
663 | Note that all the communications for a particular service take place through | ||
664 | the one server socket, using control messages on sendmsg() and recvmsg() to | ||
665 | determine the call affected. | ||
666 | |||
667 | |||
668 | ========================= | ||
669 | AF_RXRPC KERNEL INTERFACE | ||
670 | ========================= | ||
671 | |||
672 | The AF_RXRPC module also provides an interface for use by in-kernel utilities | ||
673 | such as the AFS filesystem. This permits such a utility to: | ||
674 | |||
675 | (1) Use different keys directly on individual client calls on one socket | ||
676 | rather than having to open a whole slew of sockets, one for each key it | ||
677 | might want to use. | ||
678 | |||
679 | (2) Avoid having RxRPC call request_key() at the point of issue of a call or | ||
680 | opening of a socket. Instead the utility is responsible for requesting a | ||
681 | key at the appropriate point. AFS, for instance, would do this during VFS | ||
682 | operations such as open() or unlink(). The key is then handed through | ||
683 | when the call is initiated. | ||
684 | |||
685 | (3) Request the use of something other than GFP_KERNEL to allocate memory. | ||
686 | |||
687 | (4) Avoid the overhead of using the recvmsg() call. RxRPC messages can be | ||
688 | intercepted before they get put into the socket Rx queue and the socket | ||
689 | buffers manipulated directly. | ||
690 | |||
691 | To use the RxRPC facility, a kernel utility must still open an AF_RXRPC socket, | ||
692 | bind an addess as appropriate and listen if it's to be a server socket, but | ||
693 | then it passes this to the kernel interface functions. | ||
694 | |||
695 | The kernel interface functions are as follows: | ||
696 | |||
697 | (*) Begin a new client call. | ||
698 | |||
699 | struct rxrpc_call * | ||
700 | rxrpc_kernel_begin_call(struct socket *sock, | ||
701 | struct sockaddr_rxrpc *srx, | ||
702 | struct key *key, | ||
703 | unsigned long user_call_ID, | ||
704 | gfp_t gfp); | ||
705 | |||
706 | This allocates the infrastructure to make a new RxRPC call and assigns | ||
707 | call and connection numbers. The call will be made on the UDP port that | ||
708 | the socket is bound to. The call will go to the destination address of a | ||
709 | connected client socket unless an alternative is supplied (srx is | ||
710 | non-NULL). | ||
711 | |||
712 | If a key is supplied then this will be used to secure the call instead of | ||
713 | the key bound to the socket with the RXRPC_SECURITY_KEY sockopt. Calls | ||
714 | secured in this way will still share connections if at all possible. | ||
715 | |||
716 | The user_call_ID is equivalent to that supplied to sendmsg() in the | ||
717 | control data buffer. It is entirely feasible to use this to point to a | ||
718 | kernel data structure. | ||
719 | |||
720 | If this function is successful, an opaque reference to the RxRPC call is | ||
721 | returned. The caller now holds a reference on this and it must be | ||
722 | properly ended. | ||
723 | |||
724 | (*) End a client call. | ||
725 | |||
726 | void rxrpc_kernel_end_call(struct rxrpc_call *call); | ||
727 | |||
728 | This is used to end a previously begun call. The user_call_ID is expunged | ||
729 | from AF_RXRPC's knowledge and will not be seen again in association with | ||
730 | the specified call. | ||
731 | |||
732 | (*) Send data through a call. | ||
733 | |||
734 | int rxrpc_kernel_send_data(struct rxrpc_call *call, struct msghdr *msg, | ||
735 | size_t len); | ||
736 | |||
737 | This is used to supply either the request part of a client call or the | ||
738 | reply part of a server call. msg.msg_iovlen and msg.msg_iov specify the | ||
739 | data buffers to be used. msg_iov may not be NULL and must point | ||
740 | exclusively to in-kernel virtual addresses. msg.msg_flags may be given | ||
741 | MSG_MORE if there will be subsequent data sends for this call. | ||
742 | |||
743 | The msg must not specify a destination address, control data or any flags | ||
744 | other than MSG_MORE. len is the total amount of data to transmit. | ||
745 | |||
746 | (*) Abort a call. | ||
747 | |||
748 | void rxrpc_kernel_abort_call(struct rxrpc_call *call, u32 abort_code); | ||
749 | |||
750 | This is used to abort a call if it's still in an abortable state. The | ||
751 | abort code specified will be placed in the ABORT message sent. | ||
752 | |||
753 | (*) Intercept received RxRPC messages. | ||
754 | |||
755 | typedef void (*rxrpc_interceptor_t)(struct sock *sk, | ||
756 | unsigned long user_call_ID, | ||
757 | struct sk_buff *skb); | ||
758 | |||
759 | void | ||
760 | rxrpc_kernel_intercept_rx_messages(struct socket *sock, | ||
761 | rxrpc_interceptor_t interceptor); | ||
762 | |||
763 | This installs an interceptor function on the specified AF_RXRPC socket. | ||
764 | All messages that would otherwise wind up in the socket's Rx queue are | ||
765 | then diverted to this function. Note that care must be taken to process | ||
766 | the messages in the right order to maintain DATA message sequentiality. | ||
767 | |||
768 | The interceptor function itself is provided with the address of the socket | ||
769 | and handling the incoming message, the ID assigned by the kernel utility | ||
770 | to the call and the socket buffer containing the message. | ||
771 | |||
772 | The skb->mark field indicates the type of message: | ||
773 | |||
774 | MARK MEANING | ||
775 | =============================== ======================================= | ||
776 | RXRPC_SKB_MARK_DATA Data message | ||
777 | RXRPC_SKB_MARK_FINAL_ACK Final ACK received for an incoming call | ||
778 | RXRPC_SKB_MARK_BUSY Client call rejected as server busy | ||
779 | RXRPC_SKB_MARK_REMOTE_ABORT Call aborted by peer | ||
780 | RXRPC_SKB_MARK_NET_ERROR Network error detected | ||
781 | RXRPC_SKB_MARK_LOCAL_ERROR Local error encountered | ||
782 | RXRPC_SKB_MARK_NEW_CALL New incoming call awaiting acceptance | ||
783 | |||
784 | The remote abort message can be probed with rxrpc_kernel_get_abort_code(). | ||
785 | The two error messages can be probed with rxrpc_kernel_get_error_number(). | ||
786 | A new call can be accepted with rxrpc_kernel_accept_call(). | ||
787 | |||
788 | Data messages can have their contents extracted with the usual bunch of | ||
789 | socket buffer manipulation functions. A data message can be determined to | ||
790 | be the last one in a sequence with rxrpc_kernel_is_data_last(). When a | ||
791 | data message has been used up, rxrpc_kernel_data_delivered() should be | ||
792 | called on it.. | ||
793 | |||
794 | Non-data messages should be handled to rxrpc_kernel_free_skb() to dispose | ||
795 | of. It is possible to get extra refs on all types of message for later | ||
796 | freeing, but this may pin the state of a call until the message is finally | ||
797 | freed. | ||
798 | |||
799 | (*) Accept an incoming call. | ||
800 | |||
801 | struct rxrpc_call * | ||
802 | rxrpc_kernel_accept_call(struct socket *sock, | ||
803 | unsigned long user_call_ID); | ||
804 | |||
805 | This is used to accept an incoming call and to assign it a call ID. This | ||
806 | function is similar to rxrpc_kernel_begin_call() and calls accepted must | ||
807 | be ended in the same way. | ||
808 | |||
809 | If this function is successful, an opaque reference to the RxRPC call is | ||
810 | returned. The caller now holds a reference on this and it must be | ||
811 | properly ended. | ||
812 | |||
813 | (*) Reject an incoming call. | ||
814 | |||
815 | int rxrpc_kernel_reject_call(struct socket *sock); | ||
816 | |||
817 | This is used to reject the first incoming call on the socket's queue with | ||
818 | a BUSY message. -ENODATA is returned if there were no incoming calls. | ||
819 | Other errors may be returned if the call had been aborted (-ECONNABORTED) | ||
820 | or had timed out (-ETIME). | ||
821 | |||
822 | (*) Record the delivery of a data message and free it. | ||
823 | |||
824 | void rxrpc_kernel_data_delivered(struct sk_buff *skb); | ||
825 | |||
826 | This is used to record a data message as having been delivered and to | ||
827 | update the ACK state for the call. The socket buffer will be freed. | ||
828 | |||
829 | (*) Free a message. | ||
830 | |||
831 | void rxrpc_kernel_free_skb(struct sk_buff *skb); | ||
832 | |||
833 | This is used to free a non-DATA socket buffer intercepted from an AF_RXRPC | ||
834 | socket. | ||
835 | |||
836 | (*) Determine if a data message is the last one on a call. | ||
837 | |||
838 | bool rxrpc_kernel_is_data_last(struct sk_buff *skb); | ||
839 | |||
840 | This is used to determine if a socket buffer holds the last data message | ||
841 | to be received for a call (true will be returned if it does, false | ||
842 | if not). | ||
843 | |||
844 | The data message will be part of the reply on a client call and the | ||
845 | request on an incoming call. In the latter case there will be more | ||
846 | messages, but in the former case there will not. | ||
847 | |||
848 | (*) Get the abort code from an abort message. | ||
849 | |||
850 | u32 rxrpc_kernel_get_abort_code(struct sk_buff *skb); | ||
851 | |||
852 | This is used to extract the abort code from a remote abort message. | ||
853 | |||
854 | (*) Get the error number from a local or network error message. | ||
855 | |||
856 | int rxrpc_kernel_get_error_number(struct sk_buff *skb); | ||
857 | |||
858 | This is used to extract the error number from a message indicating either | ||
859 | a local error occurred or a network error occurred. | ||

1728 | VII - Specifying interrupt information for devices | ||
1729 | =================================================== | ||
1730 | |||
1731 | The device tree represents the busses and devices of a hardware | ||
1732 | system in a form similar to the physical bus topology of the | ||
1733 | hardware. | ||
1734 | |||
1735 | In addition, a logical 'interrupt tree' exists which represents the | ||
1736 | hierarchy and routing of interrupts in the hardware. | ||
1737 | |||
1738 | The interrupt tree model is fully described in the | ||
1739 | document "Open Firmware Recommended Practice: Interrupt | ||
1740 | Mapping Version 0.9". The document is available at: | ||
1741 | <http://playground.sun.com/1275/practice>. | ||
1742 | |||
1743 | 1) interrupts property | ||
1744 | ---------------------- | ||
1745 | |||
1746 | Devices that generate interrupts to a single interrupt controller | ||
1747 | should use the conventional OF representation described in the | ||
1748 | OF interrupt mapping documentation. | ||
1749 | |||
1750 | Each device which generates interrupts must have an 'interrupt' | ||
1751 | property. The interrupt property value is an arbitrary number of | ||
1752 | of 'interrupt specifier' values which describe the interrupt or | ||
1753 | interrupts for the device. | ||
1754 | |||
1755 | The encoding of an interrupt specifier is determined by the | ||
1756 | interrupt domain in which the device is located in the | ||
1757 | interrupt tree. The root of an interrupt domain specifies in | ||
1758 | its #interrupt-cells property the number of 32-bit cells | ||
1759 | required to encode an interrupt specifier. See the OF interrupt | ||
1760 | mapping documentation for a detailed description of domains. | ||
1761 | |||
1762 | For example, the binding for the OpenPIC interrupt controller | ||
1763 | specifies an #interrupt-cells value of 2 to encode the interrupt | ||
1764 | number and level/sense information. All interrupt children in an | ||
1765 | OpenPIC interrupt domain use 2 cells per interrupt in their interrupts | ||
1766 | property. | ||
1767 | |||
1768 | The PCI bus binding specifies a #interrupt-cell value of 1 to encode | ||
1769 | which interrupt pin (INTA,INTB,INTC,INTD) is used. | ||
1770 | |||
1771 | 2) interrupt-parent property | ||
1772 | ---------------------------- | ||
1773 | |||
1774 | The interrupt-parent property is specified to define an explicit | ||
1775 | link between a device node and its interrupt parent in | ||
1776 | the interrupt tree. The value of interrupt-parent is the | ||
1777 | phandle of the parent node. | ||
1778 | |||
1779 | If the interrupt-parent property is not defined for a node, it's | ||
1780 | interrupt parent is assumed to be an ancestor in the node's | ||
1781 | _device tree_ hierarchy. | ||
1782 | |||
1783 | 3) OpenPIC Interrupt Controllers | ||
1784 | -------------------------------- | ||
1785 | |||
1786 | OpenPIC interrupt controllers require 2 cells to encode | ||
1787 | interrupt information. The first cell defines the interrupt | ||
1788 | number. The second cell defines the sense and level | ||
1789 | information. | ||
1790 | |||
1791 | Sense and level information should be encoded as follows: | ||
1792 | |||
1793 | 0 = low to high edge sensitive type enabled | ||
1794 | 1 = active low level sensitive type enabled | ||
1795 | 2 = active high level sensitive type enabled | ||
1796 | 3 = high to low edge sensitive type enabled | ||
1797 | |||
1798 | 4) ISA Interrupt Controllers | ||
1799 | ---------------------------- | ||
1800 | |||
1801 | ISA PIC interrupt controllers require 2 cells to encode | ||
1802 | interrupt information. The first cell defines the interrupt | ||
1803 | number. The second cell defines the sense and level | ||
1804 | information. | ||
1805 | |||
1806 | ISA PIC interrupt controllers should adhere to the ISA PIC | ||
1807 | encodings listed below: | ||
1808 | |||
1809 | 0 = active low level sensitive type enabled | ||
1810 | 1 = active high level sensitive type enabled | ||
1811 | 2 = high to low edge sensitive type enabled | ||

16 | |||
17 | 2. Probing for availability of MSA | ||
18 | ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ | ||
19 | It should be possible to use Kernels with the z990 crypto implementations both | ||
20 | on machines with MSA available and on those without MSA (pre z990 or z990 | ||
21 | without MSA). Therefore a simple probing mechanism has been implemented: | ||
22 | In the init function of each crypto module the availability of MSA and of the | ||
23 | respective crypto algorithm in particular will be tested. If the algorithm is | ||
24 | available the module will load and register its algorithm with the crypto API. | ||
25 | |||
26 | If the respective crypto algorithm is not available, the init function will | ||
27 | return -ENOSYS. In that case a fallback to the standard software implementation | ||
28 | of the crypto algorithm must be taken ( -> the standard crypto modules are | ||
29 | also built when compiling the kernel). | ||
30 | |||
31 | |||
32 | 3. Ensuring z990 crypto module preference | ||
33 | ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ | ||
34 | If z990 crypto instructions are available the optimized modules should be | ||
35 | preferred instead of standard modules. | ||
36 | |||
37 | 3.1. compiled-in modules | ||
38 | ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ | ||
39 | For compiled-in modules it has to be ensured that the z990 modules are linked | ||
40 | before the standard crypto modules. Then, on system startup the init functions | ||
41 | of z990 crypto modules will be called first and query for availability of z990 | ||
42 | crypto instructions. If instruction is available, the z990 module will register | ||
43 | its crypto algorithm implementation -> the load of the standard module will fail | ||
44 | since the algorithm is already registered. | ||
45 | If z990 crypto instruction is not available the load of the z990 module will | ||
46 | fail -> the standard module will load and register its algorithm. | ||
47 | |||
48 | 3.2. dynamic modules | ||
49 | ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ | ||
50 | A system administrator has to take care of giving preference to z990 crypto | ||
51 | modules. If MSA is available appropriate lines have to be added to | ||
52 | /etc/modprobe.conf. | ||
53 | |||
54 | Example: z990 crypto instruction for SHA1 algorithm is available | ||
55 | |||
56 | add the following line to /etc/modprobe.conf (assuming the | ||
57 | z990 crypto modules for SHA1 is called sha1_z990): | ||
58 | |||
59 | alias sha1 sha1_z990 | ||
60 | |||
61 | -> when the sha1 algorithm is requested through the crypto API | ||
62 | (which has a module autoloader) the z990 module will be loaded. | ||
63 | |||
64 | TBD: a userspace module probing mechanism | ||
65 | something like 'probe sha1 sha1_z990 sha1' in modprobe.conf | ||
66 | -> try module sha1_z990, if it fails to load standard module sha1 | ||
67 | the 'probe' statement is currently not supported in modprobe.conf | ||
68 | |||
69 | |||
70 | 4. Currently implemented z990 crypto algorithms | ||
71 | ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ | ||
72 | The following crypto algorithms with z990 MSA support are currently implemented. | ||
73 | The name of each algorithm under which it is registered in crypto API and the | ||
74 | name of the respective module is given in square brackets. | ||
75 | |||
76 | - SHA1 Digest Algorithm [sha1 -> sha1_z990] | ||
77 | - DES Encrypt/Decrypt Algorithm (64bit key) [des -> des_z990] | ||
78 | - Triple DES Encrypt/Decrypt Algorithm (128bit key) [des3_ede128 -> des_z990] | ||
79 | - Triple DES Encrypt/Decrypt Algorithm (192bit key) [des3_ede -> des_z990] | ||
80 | |||
81 | In order to load, for example, the sha1_z990 module when the sha1 algorithm is | ||
82 | requested (see 3.2.) add 'alias sha1 sha1_z990' to /etc/modprobe.conf. | ||

1 | s390 SCSI dump tool (zfcpdump) | ||
2 | |||
3 | System z machines (z900 or higher) provide hardware support for creating system | ||
4 | dumps on SCSI disks. The dump process is initiated by booting a dump tool, which | ||
5 | has to create a dump of the current (probably crashed) Linux image. In order to | ||
6 | not overwrite memory of the crashed Linux with data of the dump tool, the | ||
7 | hardware saves some memory plus the register sets of the boot cpu before the | ||
8 | dump tool is loaded. There exists an SCLP hardware interface to obtain the saved | ||
9 | memory afterwards. Currently 32 MB are saved. | ||
10 | |||
11 | This zfcpdump implementation consists of a Linux dump kernel together with | ||
12 | a userspace dump tool, which are loaded together into the saved memory region | ||
13 | below 32 MB. zfcpdump is installed on a SCSI disk using zipl (as contained in | ||
14 | the s390-tools package) to make the device bootable. The operator of a Linux | ||
15 | system can then trigger a SCSI dump by booting the SCSI disk, where zfcpdump | ||
16 | resides on. | ||
17 | |||
18 | The kernel part of zfcpdump is implemented as a debugfs file under "zcore/mem", | ||
19 | which exports memory and registers of the crashed Linux in an s390 | ||
20 | standalone dump format. It can be used in the same way as e.g. /dev/mem. The | ||
21 | dump format defines a 4K header followed by plain uncompressed memory. The | ||
22 | register sets are stored in the prefix pages of the respective cpus. To build a | ||
23 | dump enabled kernel with the zcore driver, the kernel config option | ||
24 | CONFIG_ZFCPDUMP has to be set. When reading from "zcore/mem", the part of | ||
25 | memory, which has been saved by hardware is read by the driver via the SCLP | ||
26 | hardware interface. The second part is just copied from the non overwritten real | ||
27 | memory. | ||
28 | |||
29 | The userspace application of zfcpdump can reside e.g. in an intitramfs or an | ||
30 | initrd. It reads from zcore/mem and writes the system dump to a file on a | ||
31 | SCSI disk. | ||
32 | |||
33 | To build a zfcpdump kernel use the following settings in your kernel | ||
34 | configuration: | ||
35 | * CONFIG_ZFCPDUMP=y | ||
36 | * Enable ZFCP driver | ||
37 | * Enable SCSI driver | ||
38 | * Enable ext2 and ext3 filesystems | ||
39 | * Disable as many features as possible to keep the kernel small. | ||
40 | E.g. network support is not needed at all. | ||
41 | |||
42 | To use the zfcpdump userspace application in an initramfs you have to do the | ||
43 | following: | ||
44 | |||
45 | * Copy the zfcpdump executable somewhere into your Linux tree. | ||
46 | E.g. to "arch/s390/boot/zfcpdump. If you do not want to include | ||
47 | shared libraries, compile the tool with the "-static" gcc option. | ||
48 | * If you want to include e2fsck, add it to your source tree, too. The zfcpdump | ||
49 | application attempts to start /sbin/e2fsck from the ramdisk. | ||
50 | * Use an initramfs config file like the following: | ||
51 | |||
52 | dir /dev 755 0 0 | ||
53 | nod /dev/console 644 0 0 c 5 1 | ||

78 | |||
79 | In a Linux distribution the zfcpdump enabled kernel image must be copied to | ||
80 | /usr/share/zfcpdump/zfcpdump.image, where the s390 zipl tool is looking for the | ||
81 | dump kernel when preparing a SCSI dump disk. | ||
82 | |||
83 | If you use a ramdisk copy it to "/usr/share/zfcpdump/zfcpdump.rd". | ||

6 | This mini-driver drives the SNC and SPIC device present in the ACPI BIOS of the | ||
7 | Sony Vaio laptops. This driver mixes both devices functions under the same | ||
8 | (hopefully consistent) interface. This also means that the sonypi driver is | ||
9 | obsoleted by sony-laptop now. | ||
10 | |||
11 | Fn keys (hotkeys): | ||
12 | ------------------ | ||
13 | Some models report hotkeys through the SNC or SPIC devices, such events are | ||
14 | reported both through the ACPI subsystem as acpi events and through the INPUT | ||
15 | subsystem. See the logs of acpid or /proc/acpi/event and | ||
16 | /proc/bus/input/devices to find out what those events are and which input | ||
17 | devices are created by the driver. | ||
18 | |||
19 | Backlight control: | ||
20 | ------------------ | ||
21 | If your laptop model supports it, you will find sysfs files in the | ||
22 | /sys/class/backlight/sony/ | ||
23 | directory. You will be able to query and set the current screen | ||
24 | brightness: | ||
25 | brightness get/set screen brightness (an iteger | ||
26 | between 0 and 7) | ||
27 | actual_brightness reading from this file will query the HW | ||
28 | to get real brightness value | ||
29 | max_brightness the maximum brightness value | ||
30 | |||
31 | |||
32 | Platform specific: | ||
33 | ------------------ | ||
34 | Loading the sony-laptop module will create a | ||
35 | /sys/devices/platform/sony-laptop/ | ||
36 | directory populated with some files. | ||
37 | |||
38 | You then read/write integer values from/to those files by using | ||
39 | standard UNIX tools. | ||
40 | |||
41 | The files are: | ||
42 | brightness_default screen brightness which will be set | ||
43 | when the laptop will be rebooted | ||
44 | cdpower power on/off the internal CD drive | ||
45 | audiopower power on/off the internal sound card | ||
46 | lanpower power on/off the internal ethernet card | ||
47 | (only in debug mode) | ||
48 | bluetoothpower power on/off the internal bluetooth device | ||
49 | fanspeed get/set the fan speed | ||
50 | |||
51 | Note that some files may be missing if they are not supported | ||
52 | by your particular laptop model. | ||
53 | |||
54 | Example usage: | ||
55 | # echo "1" > /sys/devices/platform/sony-laptop/brightness_default | ||
56 | sets the lowest screen brightness for the next and later reboots, | ||
57 | # echo "8" > /sys/devices/platform/sony-laptop/brightness_default | ||
58 | sets the highest screen brightness for the next and later reboots, | ||
59 | # cat /sys/devices/platform/sony-laptop/brightness_default | ||
60 | retrieves the value. | ||
61 | |||
62 | # echo "0" > /sys/devices/platform/sony-laptop/audiopower | ||
63 | powers off the sound card, | ||
64 | # echo "1" > /sys/devices/platform/sony-laptop/audiopower | ||
65 | powers on the sound card. | ||
66 | |||
67 | Development: | ||
68 | ------------ | ||
69 | |||
70 | If you want to help with the development of this driver (and | ||
71 | you are not afraid of any side effects doing strange things with | ||
72 | your ACPI BIOS could have on your laptop), load the driver and | ||
73 | pass the option 'debug=1'. | ||
74 | |||
75 | REPEAT: DON'T DO THIS IF YOU DON'T LIKE RISKY BUSINESS. | ||
76 | |||
77 | In your kernel logs you will find the list of all ACPI methods | ||
78 | the SNC device has on your laptop. You can see the GCDP/GCDP methods | ||
79 | used to pwer on/off the CD drive, but there are others. | ||
80 | |||
81 | I HAVE NO IDEA WHAT THOSE METHODS DO. | ||
82 | |||
83 | The sony-laptop driver creates, for some of those methods (the most | ||
84 | current ones found on several Vaio models), an entry under | ||
85 | /sys/devices/platform/sony-laptop, just like the 'cdpower' one. | ||
86 | You can create other entries corresponding to your own laptop methods by | ||
87 | further editing the source (see the 'sony_nc_values' table, and add a new | ||
88 | entry to this table with your get/set method names using the | ||
89 | SNC_HANDLE_NAMES macro). | ||
90 | |||
91 | Your mission, should you accept it, is to try finding out what | ||
92 | those entries are for, by reading/writing random values from/to those | ||
93 | files and find out what is the impact on your laptop. | ||
94 | |||
95 | Should you find anything interesting, please report it back to me, | ||
96 | I will not disavow all knowledge of your actions :) | ||
97 | |||
98 | See also http://www.linux.it/~malattia/wiki/index.php/Sony_drivers for other | ||
99 | useful info. | ||
100 | |||
101 | Bugs/Limitations: | ||
102 | ----------------- | ||
103 | |||
104 | * This driver is not based on official documentation from Sony | ||
105 | (because there is none), so there is no guarantee this driver | ||
106 | will work at all, or do the right thing. Although this hasn't | ||
107 | happened to me, this driver could do very bad things to your | ||
108 | laptop, including permanent damage. | ||
109 | |||
110 | * The sony-laptop and sonypi drivers do not interact at all. In the | ||
111 | future, sonypi could use sony-laptop to do (part of) its business. | ||
112 | |||
113 | * spicctrl, which is the userspace tool used to communicate with the | ||
114 | sonypi driver (through /dev/sonypi) does not try to use the | ||
115 | sony-laptop driver. In the future, spicctrl could try sonypi first, | ||
116 | and if it isn't present, try sony-laptop instead. | ||

65 | frequently. | ||
66 | 74 | ||
67 | Driver version -- /proc/acpi/ibm/driver | 75 | The procfs interface creates the /proc/acpi/ibm directory. There is a |
68 | --------------------------------------- | 76 | file under that directory for each feature it supports. The procfs |
77 | interface is mostly frozen, and will change very little if at all: it | ||
78 | will not be extended to add any new functionality in the driver, instead | ||
79 | all new functionality will be implemented on the sysfs interface. | ||
80 | |||
81 | The sysfs interface tries to blend in the generic Linux sysfs subsystems | ||
82 | and classes as much as possible. Since some of these subsystems are not | ||
83 | yet ready or stabilized, it is expected that this interface will change, | ||
84 | and any and all userspace programs must deal with it. | ||
85 | |||
86 | |||
87 | Notes about the sysfs interface: | ||
88 | |||
89 | Unlike what was done with the procfs interface, correctness when talking | ||
90 | to the sysfs interfaces will be enforced, as will correctness in the | ||
91 | thinkpad-acpi's implementation of sysfs interfaces. | ||
92 | |||
93 | Also, any bugs in the thinkpad-acpi sysfs driver code or in the | ||
94 | thinkpad-acpi's implementation of the sysfs interfaces will be fixed for | ||
95 | maximum correctness, even if that means changing an interface in | ||
96 | non-compatible ways. As these interfaces mature both in the kernel and | ||
97 | in thinkpad-acpi, such changes should become quite rare. | ||
98 | |||
99 | Applications interfacing to the thinkpad-acpi sysfs interfaces must | ||
100 | follow all sysfs guidelines and correctly process all errors (the sysfs | ||
101 | interface makes extensive use of errors). File descriptors and open / | ||
102 | close operations to the sysfs inodes must also be properly implemented. | ||
103 | |||
104 | The version of thinkpad-acpi's sysfs interface is exported by the driver | ||
105 | as a driver attribute (see below). | ||
106 | |||
107 | Sysfs driver attributes are on the driver's sysfs attribute space, | ||
108 | for 2.6.20 this is /sys/bus/platform/drivers/thinkpad-acpi/. | ||

2 | ivtv release notes | ||
3 | ================== | ||
4 | |||
5 | This is a v4l2 device driver for the Conexant cx23415/6 MPEG encoder/decoder. | ||
6 | The cx23415 can do both encoding and decoding, the cx23416 can only do MPEG | ||
7 | encoding. Currently the only card featuring full decoding support is the | ||
8 | Hauppauge PVR-350. | ||
9 | |||
10 | NOTE: this driver requires the latest encoder firmware (version 2.06.039, size | ||
11 | 376836 bytes). Get the firmware from here: | ||
12 | |||
13 | http://dl.ivtvdriver.org/ivtv/firmware/firmware.tar.gz | ||
14 | |||
15 | NOTE: 'normal' TV applications do not work with this driver, you need | ||
16 | an application that can handle MPEG input such as mplayer, xine, MythTV, | ||
17 | etc. | ||
18 | |||
19 | The primary goal of the IVTV project is to provide a "clean room" Linux | ||
20 | Open Source driver implementation for video capture cards based on the | ||
21 | iCompression iTVC15 or Conexant CX23415/CX23416 MPEG Codec. | ||
22 | |||
23 | Features: | ||
24 | * Hardware mpeg2 capture of broadcast video (and sound) via the tuner or | ||
25 | S-Video/Composite and audio line-in. | ||
26 | * Hardware mpeg2 capture of FM radio where hardware support exists | ||
27 | * Supports NTSC, PAL, SECAM with stereo sound | ||
28 | * Supports SAP and bilingual transmissions. | ||
29 | * Supports raw VBI (closed captions and teletext). | ||
30 | * Supports sliced VBI (closed captions and teletext) and is able to insert | ||
31 | this into the captured MPEG stream. | ||
32 | * Supports raw YUV and PCM input. | ||
33 | |||
34 | Additional features for the PVR-350 (CX23415 based): | ||
35 | * Provides hardware mpeg2 playback | ||
36 | * Provides comprehensive OSD (On Screen Display: ie. graphics overlaying the | ||
37 | video signal) | ||
38 | * Provides a framebuffer (allowing X applications to appear on the video | ||
39 | device) (this framebuffer is not yet part of the kernel. In the meantime it | ||
40 | is available from www.ivtvdriver.org). | ||
41 | * Supports raw YUV output. | ||
42 | |||

56 | Devices | ||
57 | ======= | ||
58 | |||
59 | A maximum of 12 ivtv boards are allowed at the moment. | ||
60 | |||
61 | Cards that don't have a video output capability (i.e. non PVR350 cards) | ||
62 | lack the vbi8, vbi16, video16 and video48 devices. They also do not | ||
63 | support the framebuffer device /dev/fbx for OSD. | ||
64 | |||
65 | The radio0 device may or may not be present, depending on whether the | ||
66 | card has a radio tuner or not. | ||
67 | |||
68 | Here is a list of the base v4l devices: | ||
69 | crw-rw---- 1 root video 81, 0 Jun 19 22:22 /dev/video0 | ||
70 | crw-rw---- 1 root video 81, 16 Jun 19 22:22 /dev/video16 | ||
71 | crw-rw---- 1 root video 81, 24 Jun 19 22:22 /dev/video24 | ||

78 | |||
79 | Base devices | ||
80 | ============ | ||
81 | |||
82 | For every extra card you have the numbers increased by one. For example, | ||
83 | /dev/video0 is listed as the 'base' encoding capture device so we have: | ||
84 | |||
85 | /dev/video0 is the encoding capture device for the first card (card 0) | ||
86 | /dev/video1 is the encoding capture device for the second card (card 1) | ||
87 | /dev/video2 is the encoding capture device for the third card (card 2) | ||
88 | |||
89 | Note that if the first card doesn't have a feature (eg no decoder, so no | ||
90 | video16, the second card will still use video17. The simple rule is 'add | ||
91 | the card number to the base device number'. If you have other capture | ||
92 | cards (e.g. WinTV PCI) that are detected first, then you have to tell | ||
93 | the ivtv module about it so that it will start counting at 1 (or 2, or | ||
94 | whatever). Otherwise the device numbers can get confusing. The ivtv | ||
95 | 'ivtv_first_minor' module option can be used for that. | ||
96 | |||
97 | |||
98 | /dev/video0 | ||
99 | The encoding capture device(s). | ||
100 | Read-only. | ||
101 | |||
102 | Reading from this device gets you the MPEG1/2 program stream. | ||
103 | Example: | ||
104 | |||
105 | cat /dev/video0 > my.mpg (you need to hit ctrl-c to exit) | ||
106 | |||
107 | |||
108 | /dev/video16 | ||
109 | The decoder output device(s) | ||
110 | Write-only. Only present if the MPEG decoder (i.e. CX23415) exists. | ||
111 | |||
112 | An mpeg2 stream sent to this device will appear on the selected video | ||
113 | display, audio will appear on the line-out/audio out. It is only | ||
114 | available for cards that support video out. Example: | ||
115 | |||
116 | cat my.mpg >/dev/video16 | ||
117 | |||
118 | |||
119 | /dev/video24 | ||
120 | The raw audio capture device(s). | ||
121 | Read-only | ||
122 | |||
123 | The raw audio PCM stereo stream from the currently selected | ||
124 | tuner or audio line-in. Reading from this device results in a raw | ||
125 | (signed 16 bit Little Endian, 48000 Hz, stereo pcm) capture. | ||
126 | This device only captures audio. This should be replaced by an ALSA | ||
127 | device in the future. | ||
128 | Note that there is no corresponding raw audio output device, this is | ||
129 | not supported in the decoder firmware. | ||
130 | |||
131 | |||
132 | /dev/video32 | ||
133 | The raw video capture device(s) | ||
134 | Read-only | ||
135 | |||
136 | The raw YUV video output from the current video input. The YUV format | ||
137 | is non-standard (V4L2_PIX_FMT_HM12). | ||
138 | |||
139 | Note that the YUV and PCM streams are not synchronized, so they are of | ||
140 | limited use. | ||
141 | |||
142 | |||
143 | /dev/video48 | ||
144 | The raw video display device(s) | ||
145 | Write-only. Only present if the MPEG decoder (i.e. CX23415) exists. | ||
146 | |||
147 | Writes a YUV stream to the decoder of the card. | ||
148 | |||
149 | |||
150 | /dev/radio0 | ||
151 | The radio tuner device(s) | ||
152 | Cannot be read or written. | ||
153 | |||
154 | Used to enable the radio tuner and tune to a frequency. You cannot | ||
155 | read or write audio streams with this device. Once you use this | ||
156 | device to tune the radio, use /dev/video24 to read the raw pcm stream | ||
157 | or /dev/video0 to get an mpeg2 stream with black video. | ||
158 | |||
159 | |||
160 | /dev/vbi0 | ||
161 | The 'vertical blank interval' (Teletext, CC, WSS etc) capture device(s) | ||
162 | Read-only | ||
163 | |||
164 | Captures the raw (or sliced) video data sent during the Vertical Blank | ||
165 | Interval. This data is used to encode teletext, closed captions, VPS, | ||
166 | widescreen signalling, electronic program guide information, and other | ||
167 | services. | ||
168 | |||
169 | |||
170 | /dev/vbi8 | ||
171 | Processed vbi feedback device(s) | ||
172 | Read-only. Only present if the MPEG decoder (i.e. CX23415) exists. | ||
173 | |||
174 | The sliced VBI data embedded in an MPEG stream is reproduced on this | ||
175 | device. So while playing back a recording on /dev/video16, you can | ||
176 | read the embedded VBI data from /dev/vbi8. | ||
177 | |||
178 | |||
179 | /dev/vbi16 | ||
180 | The vbi 'display' device(s) | ||
181 | Write-only. Only present if the MPEG decoder (i.e. CX23415) exists. | ||
182 | |||
183 | Can be used to send sliced VBI data to the video-out connector. | ||

1 | PVR350 Video decoder registers 0x02002800 -> 0x02002B00 | ||
2 | ======================================================= | ||
3 | |||
4 | This list has been worked out through trial and error. There will be mistakes | ||
5 | and omissions. Some registers have no obvious effect so it's hard to say what | ||
6 | they do, while others interact with each other, or require a certain load | ||
7 | sequence. Horizontal filter setup is one example, with six registers working | ||
8 | in unison and requiring a certain load sequence to correctly configure. The | ||
9 | indexed colour palette is much easier to set at just two registers, but again | ||
10 | it requires a certain load sequence. | ||
11 | |||
12 | Some registers are fussy about what they are set to. Load in a bad value & the | ||
13 | decoder will fail. A firmware reload will often recover, but sometimes a reset | ||
14 | is required. For registers containing size information, setting them to 0 is | ||
15 | generally a bad idea. For other control registers i.e. 2878, you'll only find | ||
16 | out what values are bad when it hangs. | ||

50 | The first five registers must all be loaded before accessing the trigger | ||
51 | (2818), as this register actually clocks the data through for the first | ||
52 | five. | ||
53 | |||
54 | To correctly program set the filter, this whole procedure must be done 16 | ||
55 | times. The actual register contents are copied from a lookup-table in the | ||
56 | firmware which contains 4 different filter settings. | ||

167 | Most of these registers either control horizontal scaling, or appear linked | ||
168 | to it in some way. Register 2854 contains the 'master' value & the other | ||
169 | registers can be calculated from that one. You must also remember to | ||
170 | correctly set the divider in Reg 2874. | ||
171 | |||
172 | To enlarge: | ||
173 | Reg 2854 = (source_width * 0x00200000) / destination_width | ||
174 | Reg 2874 = No divide | ||
175 | |||
176 | To reduce from full size down to half size: | ||
177 | Reg 2854 = (source_width/2 * 0x00200000) / destination width | ||
178 | Reg 2874 = Divide by 2 | ||
179 | |||
180 | To reduce from half size down to quarter size: | ||
181 | Reg 2854 = (source_width/4 * 0x00200000) / destination width | ||
182 | Reg 2874 = Divide by 4 | ||
183 | |||

302 | Horizontal offset moves the video image right. A small left shift is | ||

304 | range. | ||
305 | |||

337 | In normal usage, the first plane is Y & the second plane is UV. Though the | ||
338 | order of the planes can be swapped, only the byte order of the second plane | ||
339 | can be swapped. This isn't much use for the Y plane, but can be useful for | ||
340 | the UV plane. | ||

422 | These three registers control the vertical aliasing filter for the Y plane. | ||
423 | Operation is similar to the horizontal Y filter (2804). The only real | ||
424 | difference is that there are only two registers to set before accessing | ||
425 | the trigger register (2908). As for the horizontal filter, the values are | ||
426 | taken from a lookup table in the firmware, and the procedure must be | ||
427 | repeated 16 times to fully program the filter. | ||

524 | correctly set the divider in Reg 296C | ||

665 | Must be 0x001B (some kind of buffer pointer ?) | ||
666 | |||
667 | When the bits-per-pixel is set to 8, the colour mode is ignored and | ||
668 | assumed to be 8 bit indexed. For 16 & 32 bits-per-pixel the colour depth | ||
669 | is honoured, and when using a colour depth that requires fewer bytes than | ||
670 | allocated the extra bytes are used as padding. So for a 32 bpp with 8 bit | ||
671 | index colour, there are 3 padding bytes per pixel. It's also possible to | ||
672 | select 16bpp with a 32 bit colour mode. This results in the pixel width | ||
673 | being doubled, but the color key will not work as expected in this mode. | ||
674 | |||
675 | Colour key is as it suggests. You designate a colour which will become | ||
676 | completely transparent. When using 565, 555 or 444 colour modes, the | ||
677 | colour key is always 16 bits wide. The colour to key on is set in Reg 2A18. | ||
678 | |||
679 | Local alpha works differently depending on the colour mode. For 32bpp & 8 | ||
680 | bit indexed, local alpha is a per-pixel 256 step transparency, with 0 being | ||
681 | transparent and 255 being solid. For the 16bpp modes 555 & 444, the unused | ||
682 | bit(s) act as a simple transparency switch, with 0 being solid & 1 being | ||
683 | fully transparent. There is no local alpha support for 16bit 565. | ||
684 | |||
685 | Global alpha is a 256 step transparency that applies to the entire osd, | ||
686 | with 0 being transparent & 255 being solid. | ||
687 | |||
688 | It's possible to combine colour key, local alpha & global alpha. | ||

1 | Zoran 364xx based USB webcam module version 0.72 | ||
2 | site: http://royale.zerezo.com/zr364xx/ | ||
3 | mail: royale@zerezo.com | ||
4 | |||
5 | introduction: | ||
6 | This brings support under Linux for the Aiptek PocketDV 3300 in webcam mode. | ||
7 | If you just want to get on your PC the pictures and movies on the camera, you should use the usb-storage module instead. | ||
8 | The driver works with several other cameras in webcam mode (see the list below). | ||
9 | Maybe this code can work for other JPEG/USB cams based on the Coach chips from Zoran? | ||
10 | Possible chipsets are : ZR36430 (ZR36430BGC) and maybe ZR36431, ZR36440, ZR36442... | ||
11 | You can try the experience changing the vendor/product ID values (look at the source code). | ||
12 | You can get these values by looking at /var/log/messages when you plug your camera, or by typing : cat /proc/bus/usb/devices. | ||
13 | If you manage to use your cam with this code, you can send me a mail (royale@zerezo.com) with the name of your cam and a patch if needed. | ||
14 | This is a beta release of the driver. | ||
15 | Since version 0.70, this driver is only compatible with V4L2 API and 2.6.x kernels. | ||
16 | If you need V4L1 or 2.4x kernels support, please use an older version, but the code is not maintained anymore. | ||
17 | Good luck! | ||
18 | |||
19 | install: | ||
20 | In order to use this driver, you must compile it with your kernel. | ||
21 | Location: Device Drivers -> Multimedia devices -> Video For Linux -> Video Capture Adapters -> V4L USB devices | ||
22 | |||
23 | usage: | ||
24 | modprobe zr364xx debug=X mode=Y | ||
25 | - debug : set to 1 to enable verbose debug messages | ||
26 | - mode : 0 = 320x240, 1 = 160x120, 2 = 640x480 | ||
27 | You can then use the camera with V4L2 compatible applications, for example Ekiga. | ||
28 | To capture a single image, try this: dd if=/dev/video0 of=test.jpg bs=1 count=1 | ||
