6.1 字符设备驱动结构
先看看字符设备驱动的架构：
6.1.1 cdev
cdev结构体是字符设备的核心数据结构，用于描述一个字符设备，cdev定义如下：
#include <linux/cdev.h> struct cdev { struct kobject kobj; struct module *owner; const struct file_operations *ops; // 文件操作结构体 struct list_head list; dev_t dev; // 设备号，12bit主设备号+20bit次设备号 unsigned int count; // 设备个数 };
设备号相关宏定义:
MAJOR(dev); // 获取主设备号
MINOR(dev); // 获取从设备号
MKDEV(major,minor); // 生产设备号
cdev相关函数接口:
void cdev_init(struct cdev *, const struct file_operations *); // 将cdev与file_operations挂钩
struct cdev *cdev_alloc(void);
void cdev_put(struct cdev *p);
int cdev_add(struct cdev *, dev_t, unsigned); // 向系统中添加cdev，同时将cdev与设备号挂钩（设备号和设备名称是文件系统的组成部分，与用户交互的桥梁）
// 注意判断返回值， A negative error code is returned on failure.返回1个负数
void cdev_del(struct cdev *); // 从系统中删除cdev
6.1.2 设备号
注册设备号和释放设备号，设备号也是系统资源，需要注意在注销函数时释放：
#include <linux/fs.h>
/**
* alloc_chrdev_region() - register a range of char device numbers
* @dev: output parameter for first assigned number
* @baseminor: first of the requested range of minor numbers
* @count: the number of minor numbers required
* @name: the name of the associated device or driver
*
* Allocates a range of char device numbers. The major number will be
* chosen dynamically, and returned (along with the first minor number)
* in @dev. Returns zero or a negative error code.
*/
int alloc_chrdev_region(dev_t *dev, unsigned baseminor, unsigned count,const char *name); // 动态分配，并注册设备号
/**
* register_chrdev_region() - register a range of device numbers
* @from: the first in the desired range of device numbers; must include the major number.
* @count: the number of consecutive device numbers required
* @name: the name of the device or driver.
*
* Return value is zero on success, a negative error code on failure.
*/
int register_chrdev_region(dev_t from, unsigned count, const char *name); // 将已知的设备号注册到系统中
/**
* unregister_chrdev_region() - return a range of device numbers
* @from: the first in the range of numbers to unregister
* @count: the number of device numbers to unregister
*
* This function will unregister a range of @count device numbers,
* starting with @from. The caller should normally be the one who
* allocated those numbers in the first place...
*/
void unregister_chrdev_region(dev_t from, unsigned count)； // 注销设备号
6.1.3 file_operations
file_operations是字符设备驱动设计的主要内容， 应用程序进行open、close、write、read等操作时，通过文件系统简介调用file_operations里驱动实现的函数接口。
#include <linux/fs.h> struct file_operations { struct module *owner; // module是内核表示模块的单元，THIS_MODULE表示当前模块，insmod时内核创建一个module结构体 loff_t (*llseek) (struct file *, loff_t, int); // 修改文件当前读写位置，返回新位置，出错时返回-1 ssize_t (*read) (struct file *, char __user *, size_t, loff_t *); // 读数据，与应用程序的read和fread对应 ssize_t (*write) (struct file *, const char __user *, size_t, loff_t *); // 写数据，与应用程序的write和fwrite对应;若未实现，应用调用时返回-EINVAL ssize_t (*aio_read) (struct kiocb *, const struct iovec *, unsigned long, loff_t); ssize_t (*aio_write) (struct kiocb *, const struct iovec *, unsigned long, loff_t); int (*iterate) (struct file *, struct dir_context *); unsigned int (*poll) (struct file *, struct poll_table_struct *); // 多路复用 long (*unlocked_ioctl) (struct file *, unsigned int, unsigned long); // 对应应用程序的ioctl long (*compat_ioctl) (struct file *, unsigned int, unsigned long); int (*mmap) (struct file *, struct vm_area_struct *); // 帧缓存是有用，应用映射后可直接访问内存空间，与应用程序的mmap对应。若驱动未实现时如果应用调用，返回-ENODEV int (*open) (struct inode *, struct file *); // 若未定义，应用调用时返回成功 int (*flush) (struct file *, fl_owner_t id); int (*release) (struct inode *, struct file *); int (*fsync) (struct file *, loff_t, loff_t, int datasync); int (*aio_fsync) (struct kiocb *, int datasync); int (*fasync) (int, struct file *, int); int (*lock) (struct file *, int, struct file_lock *); ssize_t (*sendpage) (struct file *, struct page *, int, size_t, loff_t *, int); unsigned long (*get_unmapped_area)(struct file *, unsigned long, unsigned long, unsigned long, unsigned long); int (*check_flags)(int); int (*flock) (struct file *, int, struct file_lock *); ssize_t (*splice_write)(struct pipe_inode_info *, struct file *, loff_t *, size_t, unsigned int); ssize_t (*splice_read)(struct file *, loff_t *, struct pipe_inode_info *, size_t, unsigned int); int (*setlease)(struct file *, long, struct file_lock **); long (*fallocate)(struct file *file, int mode, loff_t offset, loff_t len); int (*show_fdinfo)(struct seq_file *m, struct file *f); };
【注意】
各结构体成员的参数是struct file和struct inode，而不是应用程序里的文件描述符fd；
6.1.4 生成设备文件
原书中没有介绍如何在/dev目录下自动生成设备文件，可使用如下函数实现
#include <linux/device.h>
#define class_create(owner, name)
({
static struct lock_class_key __key;
__class_create(owner, name, &__key);
})
/**
* class_create - create a struct class structure
* @owner: pointer to the module that is to "own" this struct class
* @name: pointer to a string for the name of this class.
* @key: the lock_class_key for this class; used by mutex lock debugging
*
* This is used to create a struct class pointer that can then be used
* in calls to device_create().
*
* Returns &struct class pointer on success, or ERR_PTR() on error.
*
* Note, the pointer created here is to be destroyed when finished by
* making a call to class_destroy().
*/
struct class *__class_create(struct module *owner, const char *name,struct lock_class_key *key)
/** * device_create - creates a device and registers it with sysfs * @class: pointer to the struct class that this device should be registered to * @parent: pointer to the parent struct device of this new device, if any * @devt: the dev_t for the char device to be added * @drvdata: the data to be added to the device for callbacks * @fmt: string for the device's name * * This function can be used by char device classes. A struct device * will be created in sysfs, registered to the specified class. * * A "dev" file will be created, showing the dev_t for the device, if * the dev_t is not 0,0. * If a pointer to a parent struct device is passed in, the newly created * struct device will be a child of that device in sysfs. * The pointer to the struct device will be returned from the call. * Any further sysfs files that might be required can be created using this * pointer. * * Returns &struct device pointer on success, or ERR_PTR() on error. * * Note: the struct class passed to this function must have previously * been created with a call to class_create(). */ struct device *device_create(struct class *class, struct device *parent, dev_t devt, void *drvdata, const char *fmt, ...)
/**
* device_destroy - removes a device that was created with device_create()
* @class: pointer to the struct class that this device was registered with
* @devt: the dev_t of the device that was previously registered
*
* This call unregisters and cleans up a device that was created with a
* call to device_create().
*/
void device_destroy(struct class *class, dev_t devt);
！！！6.1.5 字符设备驱动结构
6.1.4.1 模块加载和卸载
#include <linux/cdev.h> // cdev
#include <linux/fs.h> // file_operations
#include <linux/device.h> // class,device
/* 设备结构体 */ struct xxx_dev_t {
struct cdev cdev; // 一般cdev结构体不进行动态分配，直接定义在驱动程序里
struct class class; // 定义class，为了生成/dev/设备文件
....
}xxx_dev; /* 驱动模块加载函数 */ static int __init xxx_init( void )
{
...
cdev_init( &xxx_dev.cdev, &xxx_fops ); // 建立cdev与file_operations的关联
xxx_dev.cdev.owner = THIS_MODULE;
/* 注册设备号 */
if( xxx_major ){
register_chrdev_region( xxx_dev_no, 1, DEV_NAME );
}
else{
alloc_chrdev_region( &xxx_dev_no,0,1,DEV_NAME );
}
ret = cdev_add( &xxx_dev.cdev, xxx_dev_no,1 ); // 注册字符设备
if(ret){
// err proccess
}
/* 设备文件相关 */
xxx_dev.class = class_create( THIS_MODULE, DEV_NAME ); // 创建class
device_create( &xxx_dev.class, NULL, xxx_dev_no,NULL, DEV_NAME ); // 创建device，会在/dev目录下生成名字为DEV_NAME的设备文件
...
} /* 驱动模块卸载函数 */
static void __exit xxx_exit( void )
{
unregister_chrdev_region( xxx_dev_no, 1); // 释放占用的设备号
cdev_del( &xxx_dev.cdev ); // 注销字符设备
}
module_init(xxx_init);
module_eixt(xxx_exit);
【注意】
- init和exit函数的格式，static int __init xxx_init( void )，否则
6.1.4.2 file_operations成员函数
大多数驱动都要实现read、write、ioctl等函数
【注意】：
1.参数中的*f_pos实际应该就是指向filp->f_pos的指针，由文件系统统一管理的偏移，驱动中read/write要直接使用这个偏移，并在完成操作后更新这个指针；
2.llseek的参数中没有*f_pos，直接操作filp->f_pos即可。
struct file_operations xxx_fops = {
.owner = THIS_MODULE,
.read = xxx_read,
.write = xxx_write,
.unlocked_ioctl = xxx_ioctl,
...
}
ssize_t xxx_read( struct file * filp, char __user *buf, size_t count, loff_t * f_pos )
{
...
copy_to_user( buf, ..., ...);
...
}
ssize_t xxx_write( struct file * filp, char __user *buf, size_t count, loff_t * f_pos )
{
...
copy_from_user( buf, ..., ...);
...
}
long xxx_ioctrl( struct file * filp, unsigned int cmd, unsigned long arg )
{
...
switch( cmd ){
case XXX_CMD1:
...
break;
case XXX_CMD2:
...
break;
default:
// 不支持的命令
return -ENOTTY;
}
return 0;
}
【注意】:
1.读写函数的参数中，buf是用户空间的，处于内核态的驱动不应该直接读写，应该调用特定接口，如下：
2. 注意copy_to/from_user的参数位置，都是从第2个参数拷贝到第一个参数，有点类似memcpy，别搞反了！
3. 注意检查copy函数的返回值，返回值n是剩余的字节数，正常时应该为0
#include <linux/uaccess.h> // 内部包含 arch/arm/inculde/asm/uaccess.h,看来除了linux源码根目录的include目录，arch/arm/include也是驱动搜索的头文件目录
static inline unsigned long __must_check copy_from_user(void *to, const void __user *from, unsigned long n) { if (access_ok(VERIFY_READ, from, n)) // 先检查是否传入的缓冲区是否属于用户空间 n = __copy_from_user(to, from, n); else /* security hole - plug it */ memset(to, 0, n); return n; } static inline unsigned long __must_check copy_to_user(void __user *to, const void *from, unsigned long n) { if (access_ok(VERIFY_WRITE, to, n)) n = __copy_to_user(to, from, n); return n; }
对于简单类型，如char，int，long可以使用简单的函数进行复制，如下：
#define get_user(x,p) __get_user(x,p) // x是变量，p是用户空间地址， x = *p
#define put_user(x,p) __put_user(x,p) // *p = x
#define __get_user(x,ptr)
({
long __gu_err = 0;
__get_user_err((x),(ptr),__gu_err);
__gu_err;
})
#define __put_user(x,ptr)
({
long __pu_err = 0;
__put_user_err((x),(ptr),__pu_err);
__pu_err;
})
6.1.4.3 ioctl()命令
命令最好能区分不同设备，如果所有驱动都采用1,2,3这类命令，会造成命令码污染。linux有一套统一的ioctl命令生成的方式，最好使用该机制。 强制使用土鳖的1/2/3，没不会有啥大的问题。
设备类型type，是1个幻数，应参考内核中的ioctl-number.txt，不要与已使用的冲突；
序列号nr，8bit；
方向dir，_IOC_NONE（ 无数据传输） 、_IOC_READ（ 读） 、 _IOC_WRITE（ 写） 和_IOC_READ|_IOC_WRITE（ 双向） 。 数据传送的方向是从应用程序的角度来看的；
数据尺寸size，13~14bit；
用下述宏来生成命令：
#include <linux/ioctl.h> // 实际是 include/uapi/linux/ioctl.h，看来uapi也是驱动搜索的目录之一
#define _IO(type,nr) _IOC(_IOC_NONE,(type),(nr),0) #define _IOR(type,nr,size) _IOC(_IOC_READ,(type),(nr),(_IOC_TYPECHECK(size))) #define _IOW(type,nr,size) _IOC(_IOC_WRITE,(type),(nr),(_IOC_TYPECHECK(size))) #define _IOWR(type,nr,size) _IOC(_IOC_READ|_IOC_WRITE,(type),(nr),(_IOC_TYPECHECK(size)))
// 例如
#define GLOBALMEM_CMD_CLR _IO('g',0)
6.2 globalmem设备驱动示例
这本书使用globalmem模拟一种物理设备，所有的驱动都在这个设备上进行实例操作。
【注意】
1.模块编译的Makefile文件，首字母必须大写，否则make modules找不到Makefile文件，貌似是make modules时写死了，只认"Makefile"字样的文件；

6.2.2 支持N个设备
原则：cdev和file_operations本质上与驱动程序对应，理论上只需要1个就可以。同理，class定义设备的一种类型， 也不用定义多个。 具体设备（多个globalmem的buf）是多个，驱动程序要想办法把驱动文件file、inode与设备对应上就可以了。
上述原则与书中测试用例不太一致，书中定义了多个cdev。
同一套驱动需要支持多个同类设备，对上述驱动进行简单改造：
【注意】exit时要把init时建立的文件都销毁，漏掉了很容易引发问题。一开始忘记了device_destroy,导致rmmod后再insmod出问题，因为没有卸干净，

6.3 内核驱动的调试，printk
【问题1】 printk在ubuntu的shell终端里无法显示
printk打印的是控制台，也就是/dev/console。而图形界面中的终端，其实是把stdin,stdout,stderr三个文件重定向了一下。所以printk是无法再图形界面中的终端中显示的，当然可以再/var/log/syslog或者用dmesg查看。
在嵌入式设备中，其中初始化的时候把stdin，stdout,stderr均定向到了/dev/console中（main.c中的init_post函数里）。一般的情况下控制台就是串口。
【问题2】 ubuntu里怎么显示printk
ubuntu这类的发行版linux，有专门的守护进程负责记录log信息，有些log信息里就保存着printk的打印信息（内核信息），可以用dmesg命令或者查看/proc/kmsg文件
在一个单独的窗口里，可以输入如下命令，单独监测内核的日志文件，从而监控printk信息
// 方法1：
sudo cat /proc/kmsg // 阻塞显示内核信息，只显示增量信息,感觉没有dmesg好用，会漏一些信息
// 方法2：可运行如下脚本，定期用dmesg查看内核信息
while true
do
sudo dmesg -c // dmesg不是增量显示，会打印所有的存量信息，所以用-c，显示后删除
sleep 1
done

6.5 总结
总结一下应注意的事项：
1.write和read的pos指针的含义，llseek的f_pos的处理
2.copy_to/from_user的参数顺序
3.printk的查看方法
4.没有注册license引发的问题，MODULE_LICENSE("GPL")
5.错误类型及返回
6.使用私有数据的方法
7.一套驱动对应多个设备的方法
