整个SPI驱动架构可以分为协议驱动、通用接口层和控制器驱动三大部分。其中,控制器驱动即spi主机,负责最底层的数据收发工作,为了完成数据的收发工作,控制器驱动需要完成以下这些功能:

(1)申请必要的硬件资源,例如中断,DMA通道,DMA内存缓冲区等等;

(2)配置SPI控制器的工作模式和参数,使之可以和相应的设备进行正确的数据交换工作;

(3)向通用接口层提供接口,使得上层的协议驱动可以通过通用接口层访问控制器驱动;

(4)配合通用接口层,完成数据消息队列的排队和处理,直到消息队列变空为止。

1 控制器设备platform_device

1.1 定义platform_device

spi控制器遵循linux的设备模型框架,所以,一个spi控制器在代码中对应一个挂在platfrom bus下面的一个device设备。所以在板级的代码中为SPI控制器定义一个platform_device结构即可。spi的platform_device其实就是spi_master即spi主机。下面以Samsung的SOC芯片:S32440,做为例子,看看如何定义这个platform_device。以下的代码来自:arch\arm\mach-s3c24xx\mach-mini2440.c中:

因为会有多个platfrom device,所以定义为数组:

1 static struct platform_device *mini2440_devices[] __initdata = {
 2     &s3c_device_ohci,
 3     &s3c_device_wdt,
 4     &s3c_device_i2c0,
 5     &s3c_device_rtc,
 6     &s3c_device_usbgadget,
 7     &mini2440_device_eth,
 8     &mini2440_led1,
 9     &mini2440_led2,
10     &mini2440_led3,
11     &mini2440_led4,
12     &mini2440_button_device,
13     &s3c_device_nand,
14     &s3c_device_sdi,
15     &s3c_device_iis,
16     &uda1340_codec,
17     &mini2440_audio,
18 };

上面数组中没有添加spi的platfrom,需要自己定义并添加。如下:

1 struct platform_device s3c2440_device_spi0 = {
 2     .name        = "s3c6410-spi",
 3     .id        = 0,
 4     .num_resources    = ARRAY_SIZE(s3c64xx_spi0_resource),
 5     .resource    = s3c2440_spi0_resource,
 6     .dev = {
 7         .dma_mask        = &samsung_device_dma_mask,
 8         .coherent_dma_mask    = DMA_BIT_MASK(32),
 9     },
10 };

 定义s3c2440_spi0_resource

1 static struct resource s3c2440_spi0_resource[] = {
2     [0] = DEFINE_RES_MEM(S3C_PA_SPI0, SZ_256),
3     [1] = DEFINE_RES_DMA(DMACH_SPI0_TX),
4     [2] = DEFINE_RES_DMA(DMACH_SPI0_RX),
5     [3] = DEFINE_RES_IRQ(IRQ_SPI0),
6 };

然后还要定义s3c2440_spi0_resource.

最终在kernel初始化的是会去调用。

1 static void __init mini2440_init(void)
 2 {
 3     struct mini2440_features_t features = { 0 };
 4     int i;
 5 
 6     printk(KERN_INFO "MINI2440: Option string mini2440=%s\n",
 7             mini2440_features_str);
 8 
 9     /* Parse the feature string */
10     mini2440_parse_features(&features, mini2440_features_str);
11 
12     /* turn LCD on */
13     s3c_gpio_cfgpin(S3C2410_GPC(0), S3C2410_GPC0_LEND);
14 
15     /* Turn the backlight early on */
16     WARN_ON(gpio_request_one(S3C2410_GPG(4), GPIOF_OUT_INIT_HIGH, NULL));
17     gpio_free(S3C2410_GPG(4));
18 
19     /* remove pullup on optional PWM backlight -- unused on 3.5 and 7"s */
20     gpio_request_one(S3C2410_GPB(1), GPIOF_IN, NULL);
21     s3c_gpio_setpull(S3C2410_GPB(1), S3C_GPIO_PULL_UP);
22     gpio_free(S3C2410_GPB(1));
23 
24     /* mark the key as input, without pullups (there is one on the board) */
25     for (i = 0; i < ARRAY_SIZE(mini2440_buttons); i++) {
26         s3c_gpio_setpull(mini2440_buttons[i].gpio, S3C_GPIO_PULL_UP);
27         s3c_gpio_cfgpin(mini2440_buttons[i].gpio, S3C2410_GPIO_INPUT);
28     }
29     if (features.lcd_index != -1) {
30         int li;
31 
32         mini2440_fb_info.displays =
33             &mini2440_lcd_cfg[features.lcd_index];
34 
35         printk(KERN_INFO "MINI2440: LCD");
36         for (li = 0; li < ARRAY_SIZE(mini2440_lcd_cfg); li++)
37             if (li == features.lcd_index)
38                 printk(" [%d:%dx%d]", li,
39                     mini2440_lcd_cfg[li].width,
40                     mini2440_lcd_cfg[li].height);
41             else
42                 printk(" %d:%dx%d", li,
43                     mini2440_lcd_cfg[li].width,
44                     mini2440_lcd_cfg[li].height);
45         printk("\n");
46         s3c24xx_fb_set_platdata(&mini2440_fb_info);
47     }
48 
49     s3c24xx_udc_set_platdata(&mini2440_udc_cfg);
50     s3c24xx_mci_set_platdata(&mini2440_mmc_cfg);
51     s3c_nand_set_platdata(&mini2440_nand_info);
52     s3c_i2c0_set_platdata(NULL);
53 
54     i2c_register_board_info(0, mini2440_i2c_devs,
55                 ARRAY_SIZE(mini2440_i2c_devs));
56 
57     platform_add_devices(mini2440_devices, ARRAY_SIZE(mini2440_devices));
58 
59     if (features.count)    /* the optional features */
60         platform_add_devices(features.optional, features.count);
61 
62 }

2 spi的platform_driver

既然spi控制器是挂在platform下的device,有platform_device,肯定也要有platform_driver

定义位于:/drivers/spi/spi-s3c24xx.c

1 static struct platform_driver s3c24xx_spi_driver = {
2     .probe        = s3c24xx_spi_probe,
3     .remove        = s3c24xx_spi_remove,
4     .driver        = {
5         .name    = "s3c2410-spi",
6         .owner    = THIS_MODULE,
7         .pm    = S3C24XX_SPI_PMOPS,
8     },
9 };

然后注册spi platform_driver 

module_platform_driver(s3c24xx_spi_driver);

宏展开后:

定义为于:include\linux\Platform_device.h

#define module_platform_driver(__platform_driver) \
    module_driver(__platform_driver, platform_driver_register, \
            platform_driver_unregister)

最终展开为驱动的入口和出口:

#define module_driver(__driver, __register, __unregister, ...) \
static int __init __driver##_init(void) \
{ \
    return __register(&(__driver) , ##__VA_ARGS__); \
} \
module_init(__driver##_init); \
static void __exit __driver##_exit(void) \
{ \
    __unregister(&(__driver) , ##__VA_ARGS__); \
} \
module_exit(__driver##_exit);

3 platform_device和platform_driver的匹配

当platform_device或者platform_driver添加到platform_bus的时候会调用platform_match()去匹配。

static int platform_match(struct device *dev, struct device_driver *drv)
{
....
}

匹配成功就会调用probe函数s3c24xx_spi_probe() :

除了完成必要的硬件资源初始化工作以外,最重要的工作就是通过spi_bitbang_start()完成了对控制器的注册工作。

1 static int s3c24xx_spi_probe(struct platform_device *pdev)
  2 {
  3     struct s3c2410_spi_info *pdata;

spi_master结构通常由控制器驱动定义,然后通过以下通用接口层的API注册到系统中:

22     if ((master->bus_num < 0) && master->dev.of_node)

1 static void spi_match_master_to_boardinfo(struct spi_master *master,
 2                 struct spi_board_info *bi)

5 spi_device的注册建立

当spi主机和spi板机设备匹配时调用spi_new_device 注册spi设备。详见: linux设备驱动SPI详解2-通用接口层 , 将spi_device添加到spi_bus上。所以对于spi来说,spi控制器是挂在platform虚拟总线上,但spi同时又有自己的bus,bus下有spi_device和spi_driver。

(追寻spi_init也就是spi_bus) 

6 实现spi_master中的回调函数

事实上,SPI控制器驱动程序的主要工作,就是要实现spi_master结构中的几个回调函数,其它的工作逻辑,均由通用接口层帮我们完成,通用接口层会在适当的时机调用这几个回调函数,各个回调函数的作用如下,具体的实现例子位于:drivers\spi\Spi-s3c24xx.c

int (*setup)(struct spi_device *spi)
当协议驱动希望修改控制器的工作模式或参数时,会调用通用接口层提供的API:spi_setup(),该API函数最后会调用setup回调函数来完成设置工作。
int (*transfer)(struct spi_device *spi, struct spi_message *mesg)
目前已经可以不用我们自己实现该回调函数,初始化时直接设为NULL即可,目前的通用接口层已经实现了消息队列化,注册spi_master时,通用接口层会提供实现好的通用函数。现在只有一些老的驱动还在使用该回调方式,新的驱动应该停止使用该回调函数,而是应该使用队列化的transfer_one_message回调。需要注意的是,我们只能选择其中一种方式,设置了transfer_one_message回调,就不能设置transfer回调,反之亦然。

void (*cleanup)(struct spi_device *spi)
当一个SPI从设备(spi_device结构)被释放时,该回调函数会被调用,以便释放该从设备所占用的硬件资源。

int (*prepare_transfer_hardware)(struct spi_master *master)
int (*unprepare_transfer_hardware)(struct spi_master *master)
这两个回调函数用于在发起一个数据传送过程前和后,给控制器驱动一个机会,申请或释放某些必要的硬件资源,例如DMA资源和内存资源等等。int (*transfer_one_message)(struct spi_master *master, struct spi_message *mesg)
当通用接口层发现master的队列中有消息需要传送时,会调用该回调函数,所以该函数是真正完成一个消息传送的工作函数,当传送工作完成时,应该调用spi_finalize_current_message函数,以便通知通用接口层,发起队列中的下一个消息的传送工作。

6.1 spi_master中transfer 回调函数

transfer回调函数的定义flow如下:

s3c24xx_spi_probe()
1 static int s3c24xx_spi_probe(struct platform_device *pdev)
 2 {
 3     ...
 4 
 5     /* register our spi controller */
 6 
 7     err = spi_bitbang_start(&hw->bitbang);
 8     if (err) {
 9         dev_err(&pdev->dev, "Failed to register SPI master\n");
10         goto err_register;
11     }
12 ...
13 }

函数:spi_bitbang_start,定义位于:drivers\spi\spi-bitbang.c

1 int spi_bitbang_start(struct spi_bitbang *bitbang)
 2 {
 3     struct spi_master *master = bitbang->master;
 4     int status;
 5 
 6     if (!master || !bitbang->chipselect)
 7         return -EINVAL;
 8 
 9     INIT_WORK(&bitbang->work, bitbang_work);
10     spin_lock_init(&bitbang->lock);
11     INIT_LIST_HEAD(&bitbang->queue);
12 
13     if (!master->mode_bits)
14         master->mode_bits = SPI_CPOL | SPI_CPHA | bitbang->flags;
15 
16     if (!master->transfer)//判断master中transfer回调函数是否存在,s3c24xx_spi_probe函数中没有为其赋值定义
17         master->transfer = spi_bitbang_transfer;回调函数tranfer赋值
      ...
}

tranfer回调函数定义:

1 /**
 2  * spi_bitbang_transfer - default submit to transfer queue
 3  */
 4 int spi_bitbang_transfer(struct spi_device *spi, struct spi_message *m)
 5 {
 6     struct spi_bitbang    *bitbang;
 7     unsigned long        flags;
 8     int            status = 0;
 9 
10     m->actual_length = 0;
11     m->status = -EINPROGRESS;
12 
13     bitbang = spi_master_get_devdata(spi->master);
14 
15     spin_lock_irqsave(&bitbang->lock, flags);
16     if (!spi->max_speed_hz)
17         status = -ENETDOWN;
18     else {
19         list_add_tail(&m->queue, &bitbang->queue);
20         queue_work(bitbang->workqueue, &bitbang->work);
21     }
22     spin_unlock_irqrestore(&bitbang->lock, flags);
23 
24     return status;
25 }

行胜于言,自强不息。
