Linux serial构架分析及驱动开发
Linux serial构架分析及驱动开发
前面介绍了tty核心分析及tty驱动开发的方法，tty设备包括串口、终端、伪终端三大类，其中终端和伪终端驱动内核都帮我们实现好了，很少需要改动。因此我们主要介绍串口驱动的开发及其在内核中的构架（其核心实现源码主要在/drivers/serial_core.c中），这一节中我们主要分析向内核中加入一个serial驱动用到的数据结构。
serial core是构建在tty core之上的。注册一个串口驱动即在tty core层注册一个tty驱动。下面我们看看串口驱动中用到的两个最重要的数据机构 struct uart_driver 表示一个serial驱动，struct uart_port 表示一个串口端口。
struct uart_driver {
struct module *owner;
const char *driver_name; //驱动名称
const char *dev_name; //设备名基础
int major; //主设备号
int minor; //起始次设备号
int nr; //设备个数
struct console *cons; //关联的控制台
/*
* these are private; the low level driver should not
* touch these; they should be initialised to NULL
*/
struct uart_state *state; //串口驱动操作设备数组
struct tty_driver *tty_driver; //表征串口驱动的tty驱动
};
上面结构中struct uart_state *state指向驱动操作的串口设备相关数据结构，其中struct uart_port *port就是我们下面要介绍的描述串口设备的结构，struct uart_info *info 指向相关联的struct tty_struct 结构和数据发射时环形缓冲区struct circ_buf xmit，即串口打开时的描述信息。uart_info有两个成员在底层串口驱动会用到：xmit和tty。用户空间程序通过串口发送数据时，上层驱动将用户数据保存在xmit；而串口发送中断处理函数就是通过xmit获取到用户数据并将它们发送出去。串口接收中断处理函数需要通过tty将接收到的数据传递给行规则层。具体的成员分析我们在后面介绍具体的操作时再分析。

uart_iconut为串口信息计数器，包含了发送字符计数、接收字符计数等。在串口的发送中断处理函数和接收中断处理函数中，我们需要管理这些计数。
struct uart_icount {
__u32 cts;
__u32 dsr;
__u32 rng;
__u32 dcd;
__u32 rx; //接收字符数
__u32 tx; //发送字符数
__u32 frame; //错误帧计数
__u32 overrun; //rx fifo溢出计数
__u32 parity; //帧校验错误计数
__u32 brk; //break计数
__u32 buf_overrun;
};
对于实现一个串口驱动，主要的工作量就是实现struct uart_ops *ops中的各个操作函数。
* This structure describes all the operations that can be
* done on the physical hardware.
