USB core callbacks
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
|
|
What callbacks will usbcore do?
|
|
===============================
|
|
|
|
Usbcore will call into a driver through callbacks defined in the driver
|
|
structure and through the completion handler of URBs a driver submits.
|
|
Only the former are in the scope of this document. These two kinds of
|
|
callbacks are completely independent of each other. Information on the
|
|
completion callback can be found in :ref:`usb-urb`.
|
|
|
|
The callbacks defined in the driver structure are:
|
|
|
|
1. Hotplugging callbacks:
|
|
|
|
- @probe:
|
|
Called to see if the driver is willing to manage a particular
|
|
interface on a device.
|
|
|
|
- @disconnect:
|
|
Called when the interface is no longer accessible, usually
|
|
because its device has been (or is being) disconnected or the
|
|
driver module is being unloaded.
|
|
|
|
2. Odd backdoor through usbfs:
|
|
|
|
- @ioctl:
|
|
Used for drivers that want to talk to userspace through
|
|
the "usbfs" filesystem. This lets devices provide ways to
|
|
expose information to user space regardless of where they
|
|
do (or don't) show up otherwise in the filesystem.
|
|
|
|
3. Power management (PM) callbacks:
|
|
|
|
- @suspend:
|
|
Called when the device is going to be suspended.
|
|
|
|
- @resume:
|
|
Called when the device is being resumed.
|
|
|
|
- @reset_resume:
|
|
Called when the suspended device has been reset instead
|
|
of being resumed.
|
|
|
|
4. Device level operations:
|
|
|
|
- @pre_reset:
|
|
Called when the device is about to be reset.
|
|
|
|
- @post_reset:
|
|
Called after the device has been reset
|
|
|
|
The ioctl interface (2) should be used only if you have a very good
|
|
reason. Sysfs is preferred these days. The PM callbacks are covered
|
|
separately in :ref:`usb-power-management`.
|
|
|
|
Calling conventions
|
|
===================
|
|
|
|
All callbacks are mutually exclusive. There's no need for locking
|
|
against other USB callbacks. All callbacks are called from a task
|
|
context. You may sleep. However, it is important that all sleeps have a
|
|
small fixed upper limit in time. In particular you must not call out to
|
|
user space and await results.
|
|
|
|
Hotplugging callbacks
|
|
=====================
|
|
|
|
These callbacks are intended to associate and disassociate a driver with
|
|
an interface. A driver's bond to an interface is exclusive.
|
|
|
|
The probe() callback
|
|
--------------------
|
|
|
|
::
|
|
|
|
int (*probe) (struct usb_interface *intf,
|
|
const struct usb_device_id *id);
|
|
|
|
Accept or decline an interface. If you accept the device return 0,
|
|
otherwise -ENODEV or -ENXIO. Other error codes should be used only if a
|
|
genuine error occurred during initialisation which prevented a driver
|
|
from accepting a device that would else have been accepted.
|
|
You are strongly encouraged to use usbcore's facility,
|
|
usb_set_intfdata(), to associate a data structure with an interface, so
|
|
that you know which internal state and identity you associate with a
|
|
particular interface. The device will not be suspended and you may do IO
|
|
to the interface you are called for and endpoint 0 of the device. Device
|
|
initialisation that doesn't take too long is a good idea here.
|
|
|
|
The disconnect() callback
|
|
-------------------------
|
|
|
|
::
|
|
|
|
void (*disconnect) (struct usb_interface *intf);
|
|
|
|
This callback is a signal to break any connection with an interface.
|
|
You are not allowed any IO to a device after returning from this
|
|
callback. You also may not do any other operation that may interfere
|
|
with another driver bound the interface, eg. a power management
|
|
operation.
|
|
If you are called due to a physical disconnection, all your URBs will be
|
|
killed by usbcore. Note that in this case disconnect will be called some
|
|
time after the physical disconnection. Thus your driver must be prepared
|
|
to deal with failing IO even prior to the callback.
|
|
|
|
Device level callbacks
|
|
======================
|
|
|
|
pre_reset
|
|
---------
|
|
|
|
::
|
|
|
|
int (*pre_reset)(struct usb_interface *intf);
|
|
|
|
A driver or user space is triggering a reset on the device which
|
|
contains the interface passed as an argument. Cease IO, wait for all
|
|
outstanding URBs to complete, and save any device state you need to
|
|
restore. No more URBs may be submitted until the post_reset method
|
|
is called.
|
|
|
|
If you need to allocate memory here, use GFP_NOIO or GFP_ATOMIC, if you
|
|
are in atomic context.
|
|
|
|
post_reset
|
|
----------
|
|
|
|
::
|
|
|
|
int (*post_reset)(struct usb_interface *intf);
|
|
|
|
The reset has completed. Restore any saved device state and begin
|
|
using the device again.
|
|
|
|
If you need to allocate memory here, use GFP_NOIO or GFP_ATOMIC, if you
|
|
are in atomic context.
|
|
|
|
Call sequences
|
|
==============
|
|
|
|
No callbacks other than probe will be invoked for an interface
|
|
that isn't bound to your driver.
|
|
|
|
Probe will never be called for an interface bound to a driver.
|
|
Hence following a successful probe, disconnect will be called
|
|
before there is another probe for the same interface.
|
|
|
|
Once your driver is bound to an interface, disconnect can be
|
|
called at any time except in between pre_reset and post_reset.
|
|
pre_reset is always followed by post_reset, even if the reset
|
|
failed or the device has been unplugged.
|
|
|
|
suspend is always followed by one of: resume, reset_resume, or
|
|
disconnect.
