8 | Introduction | ||
9 | ------------ | ||
10 | CAIF is a MUX protocol used by ST-Ericsson cellular modems for | ||
11 | communication between Modem and host. The host processes can open virtual AT | ||
12 | channels, initiate GPRS Data connections, Video channels and Utility Channels. | ||
13 | The Utility Channels are general purpose pipes between modem and host. | ||
14 | |||
15 | ST-Ericsson modems support a number of transports between modem | ||
16 | and host. Currently, UART and Loopback are available for Linux. | ||
17 | |||
18 | |||
19 | Architecture: | ||
20 | ------------ | ||
21 | The implementation of CAIF is divided into: | ||
22 | * CAIF Socket Layer, Kernel API, and Net Device. | ||
23 | * CAIF Core Protocol Implementation | ||
24 | * CAIF Link Layer, implemented as NET devices. | ||

47 | Using the Kernel API | ||
48 | ---------------------- | ||
49 | The Kernel API is used for accessing CAIF channels from the | ||
50 | kernel. | ||
51 | The user of the API has to implement two callbacks for receive | ||
52 | and control. | ||
53 | The receive callback gives a CAIF packet as a SKB. The control | ||
54 | callback will | ||
55 | notify of channel initialization complete, and flow-on/flow- | ||
56 | off. | ||
57 | |||
58 | |||
59 | struct caif_device caif_dev = { | ||
60 | .caif_config = { | ||
61 | .name = "MYDEV" | ||
62 | .type = CAIF_CHTY_AT | ||

64 | .receive_cb = my_receive, | ||
65 | .control_cb = my_control, | ||
66 | }; | ||

76 | |||
77 | CAIF Core Protocol Layer | ||
78 | ========================================= | ||
79 | |||
80 | CAIF Core layer implements the CAIF protocol as defined by ST-Ericsson. | ||
81 | It implements the CAIF protocol stack in a layered approach, where | ||
82 | each layer described in the specification is implemented as a separate layer. | ||
83 | The architecture is inspired by the design patterns "Protocol Layer" and | ||
84 | "Protocol Packet". | ||
85 | |||
86 | == CAIF structure == | ||
87 | The Core CAIF implementation contains: | ||
88 | - Simple implementation of CAIF. | ||
89 | - Layered architecture (a la Streams), each layer in the CAIF | ||
90 | specification is implemented in a separate c-file. | ||
91 | - Clients must implement PHY layer to access physical HW | ||
92 | with receive and transmit functions. | ||
93 | - Clients must call configuration function to add PHY layer. | ||
94 | - Clients must implement CAIF layer to consume/produce | ||
95 | CAIF payload with receive and transmit functions. | ||
96 | - Clients must call configuration function to add and connect the | ||
97 | Client layer. | ||
98 | - When receiving / transmitting CAIF Packets (cfpkt), ownership is passed | ||
99 | to the called function (except for framing layers' receive functions | ||
100 | or if a transmit function returns an error, in which case the caller | ||
101 | must free the packet). | ||
102 | |||
103 | Layered Architecture | ||
104 | -------------------- | ||
105 | The CAIF protocol can be divided into two parts: Support functions and Protocol | ||
106 | Implementation. The support functions include: | ||
107 | |||
108 | - CFPKT CAIF Packet. Implementation of CAIF Protocol Packet. The | ||
109 | CAIF Packet has functions for creating, destroying and adding content | ||
110 | and for adding/extracting header and trailers to protocol packets. | ||
111 | |||
112 | - CFLST CAIF list implementation. | ||
113 | |||
114 | - CFGLUE CAIF Glue. Contains OS Specifics, such as memory | ||
115 | allocation, endianness, etc. | ||
116 | |||
117 | The CAIF Protocol implementation contains: | ||
118 | |||
119 | - CFCNFG CAIF Configuration layer. Configures the CAIF Protocol | ||
120 | Stack and provides a Client interface for adding Link-Layer and | ||
121 | Driver interfaces on top of the CAIF Stack. | ||
122 | |||
123 | - CFCTRL CAIF Control layer. Encodes and Decodes control messages | ||
124 | such as enumeration and channel setup. Also matches request and | ||
125 | response messages. | ||
126 | |||
127 | - CFSERVL General CAIF Service Layer functionality; handles flow | ||
128 | control and remote shutdown requests. | ||
129 | |||
130 | - CFVEI CAIF VEI layer. Handles CAIF AT Channels on VEI (Virtual | ||
131 | External Interface). This layer encodes/decodes VEI frames. | ||
132 | |||
133 | - CFDGML CAIF Datagram layer. Handles CAIF Datagram layer (IP | ||
134 | traffic), encodes/decodes Datagram frames. | ||
135 | |||
136 | - CFMUX CAIF Mux layer. Handles multiplexing between multiple | ||
137 | physical bearers and multiple channels such as VEI, Datagram, etc. | ||
138 | The MUX keeps track of the existing CAIF Channels and | ||
139 | Physical Instances and selects the apropriate instance based | ||
140 | on Channel-Id and Physical-ID. | ||
141 | |||
142 | - CFFRML CAIF Framing layer. Handles Framing i.e. Frame length | ||
143 | and frame checksum. | ||
144 | |||
145 | - CFSERL CAIF Serial layer. Handles concatenation/split of frames | ||
146 | into CAIF Frames with correct length. | ||

178 | In this layered approach the following "rules" apply. | ||
179 | - All layers embed the same structure "struct cflayer" | ||
180 | - A layer does not depend on any other layer's private data. | ||
181 | - Layers are stacked by setting the pointers | ||
182 | layer->up , layer->dn | ||
183 | - In order to send data upwards, each layer should do | ||
184 | layer->up->receive(layer->up, packet); | ||
185 | - In order to send data downwards, each layer should do | ||
186 | layer->dn->transmit(layer->dn, packet); | ||
187 | |||
188 | |||
189 | Linux Driver Implementation | ||
190 | =========================== | ||
191 | |||
192 | Linux GPRS Net Device and CAIF socket are implemented on top of the | ||
193 | CAIF Core protocol. The Net device and CAIF socket have an instance of | ||
194 | 'struct cflayer', just like the CAIF Core protocol stack. | ||
195 | Net device and Socket implement the 'receive()' function defined by | ||
196 | 'struct cflayer', just like the rest of the CAIF stack. In this way, transmit and | ||
197 | receive of packets is handled as by the rest of the layers: the 'dn->transmit()' | ||
198 | function is called in order to transmit data. | ||
199 | |||
200 | The layer on top of the CAIF Core implementation is | ||
201 | sometimes referred to as the "Client layer". | ||
202 | |||
203 | |||
204 | Configuration of Link Layer | ||
205 | --------------------------- | ||
206 | The Link Layer is implemented as Linux net devices (struct net_device). | ||
207 | Payload handling and registration is done using standard Linux mechanisms. | ||
208 | |||
209 | The CAIF Protocol relies on a loss-less link layer without implementing | ||
210 | retransmission. This implies that packet drops must not happen. | ||
211 | Therefore a flow-control mechanism is implemented where the physical | ||
212 | interface can initiate flow stop for all CAIF Channels. | ||

6 | === Start === | ||
7 | If you have compiled CAIF for modules do: | ||
8 | |||
9 | $modprobe crc_ccitt | ||
10 | $modprobe caif | ||
11 | $modprobe caif_socket | ||
12 | $modprobe chnl_net | ||
13 | |||
14 | |||
15 | === Preparing the setup with a STE modem === | ||
16 | |||
17 | If you are working on integration of CAIF you should make sure | ||
18 | that the kernel is built with module support. | ||
19 | |||
20 | There are some things that need to be tweaked to get the host TTY correctly | ||
21 | set up to talk to the modem. | ||
22 | Since the CAIF stack is running in the kernel and we want to use the existing | ||
23 | TTY, we are installing our physical serial driver as a line discipline above | ||
24 | the TTY device. | ||
25 | |||
26 | To achieve this we need to install the N_CAIF ldisc from user space. | ||
27 | The benefit is that we can hook up to any TTY. | ||
28 | |||
29 | The use of Start-of-frame-extension (STX) must also be set as | ||
30 | module parameter "ser_use_stx". | ||
31 | |||
32 | Normally Frame Checksum is always used on UART, but this is also provided as a | ||

101 | The host is not able to send the message from UART, the tty has not been | ||
102 | able to complete the transmit operation. | ||
103 | |||
104 | - if /sys/kernel/debug/caif_serial/<tty>/tty_status is non-zero there | ||
105 | might be problems transmitting over UART. | ||
106 | E.g. host and modem wiring is not correct you will typically see | ||
107 | tty_status = 0x10 (hw_stopped) and ser_state = 0x10 (FLOW_OFF_SENT). | ||
108 | You will probably see the enumeration message in last_tx_message | ||
109 | and empty last_rx_message. | ||

17 | History | ||
18 | ======= | ||
19 | |||
20 | The original pppol2tp driver was introduced in 2.6.23 and provided | ||
21 | L2TPv2 functionality (rfc2661). L2TPv2 is used to tunnel one or more PPP | ||
22 | sessions over a UDP tunnel. | ||
23 | |||
24 | L2TPv3 (rfc3931) changes the protocol to allow different frame types | ||
25 | to be passed over an L2TP tunnel by moving the PPP-specific parts of | ||
26 | the protocol out of the core L2TP packet headers. Each frame type is | ||
27 | known as a pseudowire type. Ethernet, PPP, HDLC, Frame Relay and ATM | ||
28 | pseudowires for L2TP are defined in separate RFC standards. Another | ||
29 | change for L2TPv3 is that it can be carried directly over IP with no | ||
30 | UDP header (UDP is optional). It is also possible to create static | ||
31 | unmanaged L2TPv3 tunnels manually without a control protocol | ||
32 | (userspace daemon) to manage them. | ||
33 | |||
34 | To support L2TPv3, the original pppol2tp driver was split up to | ||
35 | separate the L2TP and PPP functionality. Existing L2TPv2 userspace | ||
36 | apps should be unaffected as the original pppol2tp sockets API is | ||
37 | retained. L2TPv3, however, uses netlink to manage L2TPv3 tunnels and | ||
38 | sessions. | ||

9 | 42 | ||
10 | The PPPoL2TP driver, drivers/net/pppol2tp.c, provides a mechanism by | 43 | The L2TP protocol separates control and data frames. The L2TP kernel |
11 | which PPP frames carried through an L2TP session are passed through | 44 | drivers handle only L2TP data frames; control frames are always |
12 | the kernel's PPP subsystem. The standard PPP daemon, pppd, handles all | 45 | handled by userspace. L2TP control frames carry messages between L2TP |
13 | PPP interaction with the peer. PPP network interfaces are created for | 46 | clients/servers and are used to setup / teardown tunnels and |
14 | each local PPP endpoint. | 47 | sessions. An L2TP client or server is implemented in userspace. |
15 | 48 | ||
16 | The L2TP protocol http://www.faqs.org/rfcs/rfc2661.html defines L2TP | 49 | Each L2TP tunnel is implemented using a UDP or L2TPIP socket; L2TPIP |

19 | sessions. An L2TP client or server is implemented in userspace and | 52 | userspace, though for unmanaged L2TPv3 tunnels, the socket can also be |
20 | will use a regular UDP socket per tunnel. L2TP data frames carry PPP | 53 | created by the kernel. Each L2TP session (pseudowire) gets a network |
21 | frames, which may be PPP control or PPP data. The kernel's PPP | 54 | interface instance. In the case of PPP, these interfaces are created |
55 | indirectly by pppd using a pppol2tp socket. In the case of ethernet, | ||
56 | the netdevice is created upon a netlink request to create an L2TPv3 | ||
57 | ethernet pseudowire. | ||
58 | |||
59 | For PPP, the PPPoL2TP driver, net/l2tp/l2tp_ppp.c, provides a | ||
60 | mechanism by which PPP frames carried through an L2TP session are | ||
61 | passed through the kernel's PPP subsystem. The standard PPP daemon, | ||
62 | pppd, handles all PPP interaction with the peer. PPP network | ||
63 | interfaces are created for each local PPP endpoint. The kernel's PPP | ||
22 | subsystem arranges for PPP control frames to be delivered to pppd, | 64 | subsystem arranges for PPP control frames to be delivered to pppd, |
23 | while data frames are forwarded as usual. | 65 | while data frames are forwarded as usual. |
24 | 66 | ||
67 | For ethernet, the L2TPETH driver, net/l2tp/l2tp_eth.c, implements a | ||
68 | netdevice driver, managing virtual ethernet devices, one per | ||
69 | pseudowire. These interfaces can be managed using standard Linux tools | ||
70 | such as "ip" and "ifconfig". If only IP frames are passed over the | ||
71 | tunnel, the interface can be given an IP addresses of itself and its | ||
72 | peer. If non-IP frames are to be passed over the tunnel, the interface | ||
73 | can be added to a bridge using brctl. All L2TP datapath protocol | ||
74 | functions are handled by the L2TP core driver. | ||
75 | |||
25 | Each tunnel and session within a tunnel is assigned a unique tunnel_id | 76 | Each tunnel and session within a tunnel is assigned a unique tunnel_id |
26 | and session_id. These ids are carried in the L2TP header of every | 77 | and session_id. These ids are carried in the L2TP header of every |

28 | internal tunnel and/or session contexts. Zero tunnel / session ids are | 79 | present in data frames - it is inferred from the IP connection on |
29 | treated specially - zero ids are never assigned to tunnels or sessions | 80 | which the packet was received.) The L2TP driver uses the ids to lookup |
30 | in the network. In the driver, the tunnel context keeps a pointer to | 81 | internal tunnel and/or session contexts to determine how to handle the |
31 | the tunnel UDP socket. The session context keeps a pointer to the | 82 | packet. Zero tunnel / session ids are treated specially - zero ids are |

140 | For L2TPv3, userspace must use the netlink API defined in | ||

142 | general procedure to create a new L2TP tunnel with one session is:- | ||
143 | |||
144 | 1. Open a GENL socket using L2TP_GENL_NAME for configuring the kernel | ||
145 | using netlink. | ||
146 | |||
147 | 2. Create a UDP or L2TPIP socket for the tunnel. | ||
148 | |||
149 | 3. Create a new L2TP tunnel using a L2TP_CMD_TUNNEL_CREATE | ||
150 | request. Set attributes according to desired tunnel parameters, | ||
151 | referencing the UDP or L2TPIP socket created in the previous step. | ||
152 | |||

156 | The tunnel and all of its sessions are closed when the tunnel socket | ||
157 | is closed. The netlink API may also be used to delete sessions and | ||

159 | |||
160 | The L2TP driver also supports static (unmanaged) L2TPv3 tunnels. These | ||
161 | are where there is no L2TP control message exchange with the peer to | ||
162 | setup the tunnel; the tunnel is configured manually at each end of the | ||
163 | tunnel. There is no need for an L2TP userspace application in this | ||
164 | case -- the tunnel socket is created by the kernel and configured | ||
165 | using parameters sent in the L2TP_CMD_TUNNEL_CREATE netlink | ||
166 | request. The "ip" utility of iproute2 has commands for managing static | ||
167 | L2TPv3 tunnels; do "ip l2tp help" for more information. | ||

304 | Internal Implementation | ||
305 | ======================= | ||
306 | |||
307 | The driver keeps a struct l2tp_tunnel context per L2TP tunnel and a | ||
308 | struct l2tp_session context for each session. The l2tp_tunnel is | ||
309 | always associated with a UDP or L2TP/IP socket and keeps a list of | ||
310 | sessions in the tunnel. The l2tp_session context keeps kernel state | ||
311 | about the session. It has private data which is used for data specific | ||
312 | to the session type. With L2TPv2, the session always carried PPP | ||
313 | traffic. With L2TPv3, the session can also carry ethernet frames | ||
314 | (ethernet pseudowire) or other data types such as ATM, HDLC or Frame | ||
315 | Relay. | ||
316 | |||
317 | When a tunnel is first opened, the reference count on the socket is | ||
318 | increased using sock_hold(). This ensures that the kernel socket | ||
319 | cannot be removed while L2TP's data structures reference it. | ||
320 | |||
321 | Some L2TP sessions also have a socket (PPP pseudowires) while others | ||
322 | do not (ethernet pseudowires). We can't use the socket reference count | ||
323 | as the reference count for session contexts. The L2TP implementation | ||
324 | therefore has its own internal reference counts on the session | ||
325 | contexts. | ||
