Merge remote-tracking branch 'mauro-exp/docbook3' into death-to-docbook

Browse Source 
Mauro says:

This patch series convert the remaining DocBooks to ReST.

The first version was originally
send as 3 patch series:

   [PATCH 00/36] Convert DocBook documents to ReST
   [PATCH 0/5] Convert more books to ReST
   [PATCH 00/13] Get rid of DocBook

The lsm book was added as if it were a text file under
Documentation. The plan is to merge it with another file
under Documentation/security, after both this series and
a security Documentation patch series gets merged.

It also adjusts some Sphinx-pedantic errors/warnings on
some kernel-doc markups.

I also added some patches here to add PDF output for all
existing ReST books.

<title>The Linux Journalling API</title>
<sect1 id="journaling_overview">
<title>Overview</title>
<sect2 id="journaling_details">
<title>Details</title>
<para>
The journalling layer is easy to use. You need to
first of all create a journal_t data structure. There are
two calls to do this dependent on how you decide to allocate the physical
media on which the journal resides. The jbd2_journal_init_inode() call
is for journals stored in filesystem inodes, or the jbd2_journal_init_dev()
call can be used for journal stored on a raw device (in a continuous range
of blocks). A journal_t is a typedef for a struct pointer, so when
you are finally finished make sure you call jbd2_journal_destroy() on it
to free up any used kernel memory.
</para>
<para>
Once you have got your journal_t object you need to 'mount' or load the journal
file. The journalling layer expects the space for the journal was already
allocated and initialized properly by the userspace tools. When loading the
journal you must call jbd2_journal_load() to process journal contents. If the
client file system detects the journal contents does not need to be processed
(or even need not have valid contents), it may call jbd2_journal_wipe() to
clear the journal contents before calling jbd2_journal_load().
</para>
<para>
Note that jbd2_journal_wipe(..,0) calls jbd2_journal_skip_recovery() for you if
it detects any outstanding transactions in the journal and similarly
jbd2_journal_load() will call jbd2_journal_recover() if necessary. I would
advise reading ext4_load_journal() in fs/ext4/super.c for examples on this
stage.
</para>
<para>
Now you can go ahead and start modifying the underlying
filesystem. Almost.
</para>
<para>
You still need to actually journal your filesystem changes, this
is done by wrapping them into transactions. Additionally you
also need to wrap the modification of each of the buffers
with calls to the journal layer, so it knows what the modifications
you are actually making are. To do this use jbd2_journal_start() which
returns a transaction handle.
</para>
<para>
jbd2_journal_start()
and its counterpart jbd2_journal_stop(), which indicates the end of a
transaction are nestable calls, so you can reenter a transaction if necessary,
but remember you must call jbd2_journal_stop() the same number of times as
jbd2_journal_start() before the transaction is completed (or more accurately
leaves the update phase). Ext4/VFS makes use of this feature to simplify
handling of inode dirtying, quota support, etc.
</para>
<para>
Inside each transaction you need to wrap the modifications to the
individual buffers (blocks). Before you start to modify a buffer you
need to call jbd2_journal_get_{create,write,undo}_access() as appropriate,
this allows the journalling layer to copy the unmodified data if it
needs to. After all the buffer may be part of a previously uncommitted
transaction.
At this point you are at last ready to modify a buffer, and once
you are have done so you need to call jbd2_journal_dirty_{meta,}data().
Or if you've asked for access to a buffer you now know is now longer
required to be pushed back on the device you can call jbd2_journal_forget()
in much the same way as you might have used bforget() in the past.
</para>
<para>
A jbd2_journal_flush() may be called at any time to commit and checkpoint
all your transactions.
</para>
<para>
Then at umount time , in your put_super() you can then call jbd2_journal_destroy()
to clean up your in-core journal object.
</para>
<para>
Unfortunately there a couple of ways the journal layer can cause a deadlock.
The first thing to note is that each task can only have
a single outstanding transaction at any one time, remember nothing
commits until the outermost jbd2_journal_stop(). This means
you must complete the transaction at the end of each file/inode/address
etc. operation you perform, so that the journalling system isn't re-entered
on another journal. Since transactions can't be nested/batched
across differing journals, and another filesystem other than
yours (say ext4) may be modified in a later syscall.
</para>
<para>
The second case to bear in mind is that jbd2_journal_start() can
block if there isn't enough space in the journal for your transaction
(based on the passed nblocks param) - when it blocks it merely(!) needs to
wait for transactions to complete and be committed from other tasks,
so essentially we are waiting for jbd2_journal_stop(). So to avoid
deadlocks you must treat jbd2_journal_start/stop() as if they
were semaphores and include them in your semaphore ordering rules to prevent
deadlocks. Note that jbd2_journal_extend() has similar blocking behaviour to
jbd2_journal_start() so you can deadlock here just as easily as on
jbd2_journal_start().
</para>
<para>
Try to reserve the right number of blocks the first time. ;-). This will
be the maximum number of blocks you are going to touch in this transaction.
I advise having a look at at least ext4_jbd.h to see the basis on which
ext4 uses to make these decisions.
</para>
<para>
Another wriggle to watch out for is your on-disk block allocation strategy.
Why? Because, if you do a delete, you need to ensure you haven't reused any
of the freed blocks until the transaction freeing these blocks commits. If you
reused these blocks and crash happens, there is no way to restore the contents
of the reallocated blocks at the end of the last fully committed transaction.
One simple way of doing this is to mark blocks as free in internal in-memory
block allocation structures only after the transaction freeing them commits.
Ext4 uses journal commit callback for this purpose.
</para>
<para>
With journal commit callbacks you can ask the journalling layer to call a
callback function when the transaction is finally committed to disk, so that
you can do some of your own management. You ask the journalling layer for
calling the callback by simply setting journal->j_commit_callback function
pointer and that function is called after each transaction commit. You can also
use transaction->t_private_list for attaching entries to a transaction that
need processing when the transaction commits.
</para>
<para>
JBD2 also provides a way to block all transaction updates via
jbd2_journal_{un,}lock_updates(). Ext4 uses this when it wants a window with a
clean and stable fs for a moment. E.g.
</para>
<programlisting>
jbd2_journal_lock_updates() //stop new stuff happening..
jbd2_journal_flush() // checkpoint everything.
..do stuff on stable fs
jbd2_journal_unlock_updates() // carry on with filesystem use.
</programlisting>
<para>
The opportunities for abuse and DOS attacks with this should be obvious,
if you allow unprivileged userspace to trigger codepaths containing these
calls.
</para>
</sect2>
<sect2 id="jbd_summary">
<title>Summary</title>
<para>
Using the journal is a matter of wrapping the different context changes,
being each mount, each modification (transaction) and each changed buffer
to tell the journalling layer about them.
</para>
</sect2>
</sect1>
<sect1 id="data_types">
<title>Data Types</title>
<para>
The journalling layer uses typedefs to 'hide' the concrete definitions
of the structures used. As a client of the JBD2 layer you can
just rely on the using the pointer as a magic cookie of some sort.
Obviously the hiding is not enforced as this is 'C'.

<title>Initializing</title>
<para>
The init function init_rs returns a pointer to an
rs decoder structure, which holds the necessary
information for encoding, decoding and error correction
with the given polynomial. It either uses an existing
matching decoder or creates a new one. On creation all
the lookup tables for fast en/decoding are created.
The function may take a while, so make sure not to
call it in critical code paths.
</para>
<programlisting>
/* the Reed Solomon control structure */
static struct rs_control *rs_decoder;
/* Symbolsize is 10 (bits)
* Primitive polynomial is x^10+x^3+1
* first consecutive root is 0
* primitive element to generate roots = 1
* generator polynomial degree (number of roots) = 6
*/
rs_decoder = init_rs (10, 0x409, 0, 1, 6);
</programlisting>
</sect1>
<sect1>
<title>Encoding</title>
<para>
The encoder calculates the Reed-Solomon code over
the given data length and stores the result in
the parity buffer. Note that the parity buffer must
be initialized before calling the encoder.
</para>
<para>
The expanded data can be inverted on the fly by
providing a non-zero inversion mask. The expanded data is
XOR'ed with the mask. This is used e.g. for FLASH
ECC, where the all 0xFF is inverted to an all 0x00.
The Reed-Solomon code for all 0x00 is all 0x00. The
code is inverted before storing to FLASH so it is 0xFF
too. This prevents that reading from an erased FLASH
results in ECC errors.
</para>
<para>
The databytes are expanded to the given symbol size
on the fly. There is no support for encoding continuous
bitstreams with a symbol size != 8 at the moment. If
it is necessary it should be not a big deal to implement
such functionality.
</para>
<programlisting>
/* Parity buffer. Size = number of roots */
uint16_t par[6];
/* Initialize the parity buffer */
memset(par, 0, sizeof(par));
/* Encode 512 byte in data8. Store parity in buffer par */
encode_rs8 (rs_decoder, data8, 512, par, 0);
</programlisting>
</sect1>
<sect1>
<title>Decoding</title>
<para>
The decoder calculates the syndrome over
the given data length and the received parity symbols
and corrects errors in the data.
</para>
<para>
If a syndrome is available from a hardware decoder
then the syndrome calculation is skipped.
</para>
<para>
The correction of the data buffer can be suppressed
by providing a correction pattern buffer and an error
location buffer to the decoder. The decoder stores the
calculated error location and the correction bitmask
in the given buffers. This is useful for hardware
decoders which use a weird bit ordering scheme.
</para>

<sect1 id="Introduction"><title>Introduction</title>
<para>
In March 2001, the National Security Agency (NSA) gave a presentation
about Security-Enhanced Linux (SELinux) at the 2.5 Linux Kernel
Summit. SELinux is an implementation of flexible and fine-grained
nondiscretionary access controls in the Linux kernel, originally
implemented as its own particular kernel patch. Several other
security projects (e.g. RSBAC, Medusa) have also developed flexible
access control architectures for the Linux kernel, and various
projects have developed particular access control models for Linux
(e.g. LIDS, DTE, SubDomain). Each project has developed and
maintained its own kernel patch to support its security needs.
</para>
<para>
In response to the NSA presentation, Linus Torvalds made a set of
remarks that described a security framework he would be willing to
consider for inclusion in the mainstream Linux kernel. He described a
general framework that would provide a set of security hooks to
control operations on kernel objects and a set of opaque security
fields in kernel data structures for maintaining security attributes.
This framework could then be used by loadable kernel modules to
implement any desired model of security. Linus also suggested the
possibility of migrating the Linux capabilities code into such a
module.
</para>
<para>
The Linux Security Modules (LSM) project was started by WireX to
develop such a framework. LSM is a joint development effort by
several security projects, including Immunix, SELinux, SGI and Janus,
and several individuals, including Greg Kroah-Hartman and James
Morris, to develop a Linux kernel patch that implements this
framework. The patch is currently tracking the 2.4 series and is
targeted for integration into the 2.5 development series. This
technical report provides an overview of the framework and the example
capabilities security module provided by the LSM kernel patch.
</para>
</sect1>
<sect1 id="framework"><title>LSM Framework</title>
<para>
The LSM kernel patch provides a general kernel framework to support
security modules. In particular, the LSM framework is primarily
focused on supporting access control modules, although future
development is likely to address other security needs such as
auditing. By itself, the framework does not provide any additional
security; it merely provides the infrastructure to support security
modules. The LSM kernel patch also moves most of the capabilities
logic into an optional security module, with the system defaulting
to the traditional superuser logic. This capabilities module
is discussed further in <xref linkend="cap"/>.
</para>
<para>
The LSM kernel patch adds security fields to kernel data structures
and inserts calls to hook functions at critical points in the kernel
code to manage the security fields and to perform access control. It
also adds functions for registering and unregistering security
modules, and adds a general <function>security</function> system call
to support new system calls for security-aware applications.
</para>
<para>
The LSM security fields are simply <type>void*</type> pointers. For
process and program execution security information, security fields
were added to <structname>struct task_struct</structname> and
<structname>struct linux_binprm</structname>. For filesystem security
information, a security field was added to
<structname>struct super_block</structname>. For pipe, file, and socket
security information, security fields were added to
<structname>struct inode</structname> and
<structname>struct file</structname>. For packet and network device security
information, security fields were added to
<structname>struct sk_buff</structname> and
<structname>struct net_device</structname>. For System V IPC security
information, security fields were added to
<structname>struct kern_ipc_perm</structname> and
<structname>struct msg_msg</structname>; additionally, the definitions
for <structname>struct msg_msg</structname>, <structname>struct
msg_queue</structname>, and <structname>struct
shmid_kernel</structname> were moved to header files
(<filename>include/linux/msg.h</filename> and
<filename>include/linux/shm.h</filename> as appropriate) to allow
the security modules to use these definitions.
</para>
<para>
Each LSM hook is a function pointer in a global table,
security_ops. This table is a
<structname>security_operations</structname> structure as defined by
<filename>include/linux/security.h</filename>. Detailed documentation
for each hook is included in this header file. At present, this
structure consists of a collection of substructures that group related
hooks based on the kernel object (e.g. task, inode, file, sk_buff,
etc) as well as some top-level hook function pointers for system
operations. This structure is likely to be flattened in the future
for performance. The placement of the hook calls in the kernel code
is described by the "called:" lines in the per-hook documentation in
the header file. The hook calls can also be easily found in the
kernel code by looking for the string "security_ops->".
</para>
<para>
Linus mentioned per-process security hooks in his original remarks as a
possible alternative to global security hooks. However, if LSM were
to start from the perspective of per-process hooks, then the base
framework would have to deal with how to handle operations that
involve multiple processes (e.g. kill), since each process might have
its own hook for controlling the operation. This would require a
general mechanism for composing hooks in the base framework.
Additionally, LSM would still need global hooks for operations that
have no process context (e.g. network input operations).
Consequently, LSM provides global security hooks, but a security
module is free to implement per-process hooks (where that makes sense)
by storing a security_ops table in each process' security field and
then invoking these per-process hooks from the global hooks.
The problem of composition is thus deferred to the module.
</para>
<para>
The global security_ops table is initialized to a set of hook
functions provided by a dummy security module that provides
traditional superuser logic. A <function>register_security</function>
function (in <filename>security/security.c</filename>) is provided to
allow a security module to set security_ops to refer to its own hook
functions, and an <function>unregister_security</function> function is
provided to revert security_ops to the dummy module hooks. This
mechanism is used to set the primary security module, which is
responsible for making the final decision for each hook.
</para>
<para>
LSM also provides a simple mechanism for stacking additional security
modules with the primary security module. It defines
<function>register_security</function> and
<function>unregister_security</function> hooks in the
<structname>security_operations</structname> structure and provides
<function>mod_reg_security</function> and
<function>mod_unreg_security</function> functions that invoke these
hooks after performing some sanity checking. A security module can
call these functions in order to stack with other modules. However,
the actual details of how this stacking is handled are deferred to the
module, which can implement these hooks in any way it wishes
(including always returning an error if it does not wish to support
stacking). In this manner, LSM again defers the problem of
composition to the module.
</para>
<para>
Although the LSM hooks are organized into substructures based on
kernel object, all of the hooks can be viewed as falling into two
major categories: hooks that are used to manage the security fields
and hooks that are used to perform access control. Examples of the
first category of hooks include the
<function>alloc_security</function> and
<function>free_security</function> hooks defined for each kernel data
structure that has a security field. These hooks are used to allocate
and free security structures for kernel objects. The first category
of hooks also includes hooks that set information in the security
field after allocation, such as the <function>post_lookup</function>
hook in <structname>struct inode_security_ops</structname>. This hook
is used to set security information for inodes after successful lookup
operations. An example of the second category of hooks is the
<function>permission</function> hook in
<structname>struct inode_security_ops</structname>. This hook checks
permission when accessing an inode.
</para>
</sect1>
<sect1 id="cap"><title>LSM Capabilities Module</title>
<para>
The LSM kernel patch moves most of the existing POSIX.1e capabilities
logic into an optional security module stored in the file
<filename>security/capability.c</filename>. This change allows
users who do not want to use capabilities to omit this code entirely
from their kernel, instead using the dummy module for traditional
superuser logic or any other module that they desire. This change
also allows the developers of the capabilities logic to maintain and
enhance their code more freely, without needing to integrate patches
back into the base kernel.
</para>
<para>
In addition to moving the capabilities logic, the LSM kernel patch
could move the capability-related fields from the kernel data
structures into the new security fields managed by the security
modules. However, at present, the LSM kernel patch leaves the
capability fields in the kernel data structures. In his original
remarks, Linus suggested that this might be preferable so that other
security modules can be easily stacked with the capabilities module
without needing to chain multiple security structures on the security field.
It also avoids imposing extra overhead on the capabilities module
to manage the security fields. However, the LSM framework could
certainly support such a move if it is determined to be desirable,
with only a few additional changes described below.
</para>
<para>
At present, the capabilities logic for computing process capabilities
on <function>execve</function> and <function>set*uid</function>,
checking capabilities for a particular process, saving and checking
capabilities for netlink messages, and handling the
<function>capget</function> and <function>capset</function> system
calls have been moved into the capabilities module. There are still a
few locations in the base kernel where capability-related fields are
directly examined or modified, but the current version of the LSM
patch does allow a security module to completely replace the
assignment and testing of capabilities. These few locations would
need to be changed if the capability-related fields were moved into
the security field. The following is a list of known locations that
still perform such direct examination or modification of
capability-related fields:

<title>Introduction</title>
<para>
This document describes the interfaces available for device drivers that
drive s390 based channel attached I/O devices. This includes interfaces for
interaction with the hardware and interfaces for interacting with the
common driver core. Those interfaces are provided by the s390 common I/O
layer.
</para>
<para>
The document assumes a familarity with the technical terms associated
with the s390 channel I/O architecture. For a description of this
architecture, please refer to the "z/Architecture: Principles of
Operation", IBM publication no. SA22-7832.
</para>
<para>
While most I/O devices on a s390 system are typically driven through the
channel I/O mechanism described here, there are various other methods
(like the diag interface). These are out of the scope of this document.
</para>
<para>
Some additional information can also be found in the kernel source
under Documentation/s390/driver-model.txt.
</para>
</chapter>
<chapter id="ccw">
<title>The ccw bus</title>
<para>
The ccw bus typically contains the majority of devices available to
a s390 system. Named after the channel command word (ccw), the basic
command structure used to address its devices, the ccw bus contains
so-called channel attached devices. They are addressed via I/O
subchannels, visible on the css bus. A device driver for
channel-attached devices, however, will never interact with the
subchannel directly, but only via the I/O device on the ccw bus,
the ccw device.
</para>
<sect1 id="channelIO">
<title>I/O functions for channel-attached devices</title>
<para>
Some hardware structures have been translated into C structures for use
by the common I/O layer and device drivers. For more information on
the hardware structures represented here, please consult the Principles
of Operation.
</para>

</sect1>
<sect1 id="ccwdev">
<title>ccw devices</title>
<para>
Devices that want to initiate channel I/O need to attach to the ccw bus.
Interaction with the driver core is done via the common I/O layer, which
provides the abstractions of ccw devices and ccw device drivers.
</para>
<para>
The functions that initiate or terminate channel I/O all act upon a
ccw device structure. Device drivers must not bypass those functions
or strange side effects may happen.

The ccwgroup bus only contains artificial devices, created by the user.
Many networking devices (e.g. qeth) are in fact composed of several
ccw devices (like read, write and data channel for qeth). The
ccwgroup bus provides a mechanism to create a meta-device which
contains those ccw devices as slave devices and can be associated
with the netdevice.

<title>Generic interfaces</title>
<para>
Some interfaces are available to other drivers that do not necessarily
have anything to do with the busses described above, but still are
indirectly using basic infrastructure in the common I/O layer.
One example is the support for adapter interrupts.

<title>Introduction</title>
<sect1 id="protocol_vs_bus">
<title>Protocol vs bus</title>
<para>
Once upon a time, the Small Computer Systems Interface defined both
a parallel I/O bus and a data protocol to connect a wide variety of
peripherals (disk drives, tape drives, modems, printers, scanners,
optical drives, test equipment, and medical devices) to a host
computer.
</para>
<para>
Although the old parallel (fast/wide/ultra) SCSI bus has largely
fallen out of use, the SCSI command set is more widely used than ever
to communicate with devices over a number of different busses.
</para>
<para>
The <ulink url='http://www.t10.org/scsi-3.htm'>SCSI protocol</ulink>
is a big-endian peer-to-peer packet based protocol. SCSI commands
are 6, 10, 12, or 16 bytes long, often followed by an associated data
payload.
</para>
<para>
SCSI commands can be transported over just about any kind of bus, and
are the default protocol for storage devices attached to USB, SATA,
SAS, Fibre Channel, FireWire, and ATAPI devices. SCSI packets are
also commonly exchanged over Infiniband,
<ulink url='http://i2o.shadowconnect.com/faq.php'>I20</ulink>, TCP/IP
(<ulink url='https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ISCSI'>iSCSI</ulink>), even
<ulink url='http://cyberelk.net/tim/parport/parscsi.html'>Parallel
ports</ulink>.
</para>
</sect1>
<sect1 id="subsystem_design">
<title>Design of the Linux SCSI subsystem</title>
<para>
The SCSI subsystem uses a three layer design, with upper, mid, and low
layers. Every operation involving the SCSI subsystem (such as reading
a sector from a disk) uses one driver at each of the 3 levels: one
upper layer driver, one lower layer driver, and the SCSI midlayer.
</para>
<para>
The SCSI upper layer provides the interface between userspace and the
kernel, in the form of block and char device nodes for I/O and
ioctl(). The SCSI lower layer contains drivers for specific hardware
devices.
</para>
<para>
In between is the SCSI mid-layer, analogous to a network routing
layer such as the IPv4 stack. The SCSI mid-layer routes a packet
based data protocol between the upper layer's /dev nodes and the
corresponding devices in the lower layer. It manages command queues,
provides error handling and power management functions, and responds
to ioctl() requests.

Scan a host to determine which (if any) devices are attached.
The general scanning/probing algorithm is as follows, exceptions are
made to it depending on device specific flags, compilation options,
and global variable (boot or module load time) settings.
A specific LUN is scanned via an INQUIRY command; if the LUN has a
device attached, a scsi_device is allocated and setup for it.
For every id of every channel on the given host, start by scanning
LUN 0. Skip hosts that don't respond at all to a scan of LUN 0.
Otherwise, if LUN 0 has a device attached, allocate and setup a
scsi_device for it. If target is SCSI-3 or up, issue a REPORT LUN,
and scan all of the LUNs returned by the REPORT LUN; else,
sequentially scan LUNs up until some maximum is reached, or a LUN is
seen that cannot have a device attached to it.

In addition to the basic SCSI core objects this transport class
introduces two additional intermediate objects: The SAS PHY
as represented by struct sas_phy defines an "outgoing" PHY on
a SAS HBA or Expander, and the SAS remote PHY represented by
struct sas_rphy defines an "incoming" PHY on a SAS Expander or
end device. Note that this is purely a software concept, the
underlying hardware for a PHY and a remote PHY is the exactly
the same.

There is no concept of a SAS port in this code, users can see

<title>Introduction</title>
<para>
The Z85x30 family synchronous/asynchronous controller chips are
used on a large number of cheap network interface cards. The
kernel provides a core interface layer that is designed to make
it easy to provide WAN services using this chip.
</para>
<para>
The current driver only support synchronous operation. Merging the
asynchronous driver support into this code to allow any Z85x30
device to be used as both a tty interface and as a synchronous
controller is a project for Linux post the 2.4 release
</para>
</chapter>
<chapter id="Driver_Modes">
<title>Driver Modes</title>
<para>
The Z85230 driver layer can drive Z8530, Z85C30 and Z85230 devices
in three different modes. Each mode can be applied to an individual
channel on the chip (each chip has two channels).
</para>
<para>
The PIO synchronous mode supports the most common Z8530 wiring. Here
the chip is interface to the I/O and interrupt facilities of the
host machine but not to the DMA subsystem. When running PIO the
Z8530 has extremely tight timing requirements. Doing high speeds,
even with a Z85230 will be tricky. Typically you should expect to
achieve at best 9600 baud with a Z8C530 and 64Kbits with a Z85230.
</para>
<para>
The DMA mode supports the chip when it is configured to use dual DMA
channels on an ISA bus. The better cards tend to support this mode
of operation for a single channel. With DMA running the Z85230 tops
out when it starts to hit ISA DMA constraints at about 512Kbits. It
is worth noting here that many PC machines hang or crash when the
chip is driven fast enough to hold the ISA bus solid.
</para>
<para>
Transmit DMA mode uses a single DMA channel. The DMA channel is used
for transmission as the transmit FIFO is smaller than the receive
FIFO. it gives better performance than pure PIO mode but is nowhere
near as ideal as pure DMA mode.
</para>
</chapter>
<chapter id="Using_the_Z85230_driver">
<title>Using the Z85230 driver</title>
<para>
The Z85230 driver provides the back end interface to your board. To
configure a Z8530 interface you need to detect the board and to
identify its ports and interrupt resources. It is also your problem
to verify the resources are available.
</para>
<para>
Having identified the chip you need to fill in a struct z8530_dev,
which describes each chip. This object must exist until you finally
shutdown the board. Firstly zero the active field. This ensures
nothing goes off without you intending it. The irq field should
be set to the interrupt number of the chip. (Each chip has a single
interrupt source rather than each channel). You are responsible
for allocating the interrupt line. The interrupt handler should be
set to <function>z8530_interrupt</function>. The device id should
be set to the z8530_dev structure pointer. Whether the interrupt can
be shared or not is board dependent, and up to you to initialise.
</para>
<para>
The structure holds two channel structures.
Initialise chanA.ctrlio and chanA.dataio with the address of the
control and data ports. You can or this with Z8530_PORT_SLEEP to
indicate your interface needs the 5uS delay for chip settling done
in software. The PORT_SLEEP option is architecture specific. Other
flags may become available on future platforms, eg for MMIO.
Initialise the chanA.irqs to &amp;z8530_nop to start the chip up
as disabled and discarding interrupt events. This ensures that
stray interrupts will be mopped up and not hang the bus. Set
chanA.dev to point to the device structure itself. The
private and name field you may use as you wish. The private field
is unused by the Z85230 layer. The name is used for error reporting
and it may thus make sense to make it match the network name.
</para>
<para>
Repeat the same operation with the B channel if your chip has
both channels wired to something useful. This isn't always the
case. If it is not wired then the I/O values do not matter, but
you must initialise chanB.dev.
</para>
<para>
If your board has DMA facilities then initialise the txdma and
rxdma fields for the relevant channels. You must also allocate the
ISA DMA channels and do any necessary board level initialisation
to configure them. The low level driver will do the Z8530 and
DMA controller programming but not board specific magic.
</para>
<para>
Having initialised the device you can then call
<function>z8530_init</function>. This will probe the chip and
reset it into a known state. An identification sequence is then
run to identify the chip type. If the checks fail to pass the
function returns a non zero error code. Typically this indicates
that the port given is not valid. After this call the
type field of the z8530_dev structure is initialised to either
Z8530, Z85C30 or Z85230 according to the chip found.
</para>
<para>
Once you have called z8530_init you can also make use of the utility
function <function>z8530_describe</function>. This provides a
consistent reporting format for the Z8530 devices, and allows all
the drivers to provide consistent reporting.
</para>
</chapter>
<chapter id="Attaching_Network_Interfaces">
<title>Attaching Network Interfaces</title>
<para>
If you wish to use the network interface facilities of the driver,
then you need to attach a network device to each channel that is
present and in use. In addition to use the generic HDLC
you need to follow some additional plumbing rules. They may seem
complex but a look at the example hostess_sv11 driver should
reassure you.
</para>
<para>
The network device used for each channel should be pointed to by
the netdevice field of each channel. The hdlc-&gt; priv field of the
network device points to your private data - you will need to be
able to find your private data from this.
</para>
<para>
The way most drivers approach this particular problem is to
create a structure holding the Z8530 device definition and
put that into the private field of the network device. The
network device fields of the channels then point back to the
network devices.
</para>
<para>
If you wish to use the generic HDLC then you need to register
the HDLC device.
</para>
<para>
Before you register your network device you will also need to
provide suitable handlers for most of the network device callbacks.
See the network device documentation for more details on this.
</para>
</chapter>
<chapter id="Configuring_And_Activating_The_Port">
<title>Configuring And Activating The Port</title>
<para>
The Z85230 driver provides helper functions and tables to load the
port registers on the Z8530 chips. When programming the register
settings for a channel be aware that the documentation recommends
initialisation orders. Strange things happen when these are not
followed.
</para>
<para>
<function>z8530_channel_load</function> takes an array of
pairs of initialisation values in an array of u8 type. The first
value is the Z8530 register number. Add 16 to indicate the alternate
register bank on the later chips. The array is terminated by a 255.
</para>
<para>
The driver provides a pair of public tables. The
z8530_hdlc_kilostream table is for the UK 'Kilostream' service and
also happens to cover most other end host configurations. The
z8530_hdlc_kilostream_85230 table is the same configuration using
the enhancements of the 85230 chip. The configuration loaded is
standard NRZ encoded synchronous data with HDLC bitstuffing. All
of the timing is taken from the other end of the link.
</para>
<para>
When writing your own tables be aware that the driver internally
tracks register values. It may need to reload values. You should
therefore be sure to set registers 1-7, 9-11, 14 and 15 in all
configurations. Where the register settings depend on DMA selection
the driver will update the bits itself when you open or close.
Loading a new table with the interface open is not recommended.
</para>
<para>
There are three standard configurations supported by the core
code. In PIO mode the interface is programmed up to use
interrupt driven PIO. This places high demands on the host processor
to avoid latency. The driver is written to take account of latency
issues but it cannot avoid latencies caused by other drivers,
notably IDE in PIO mode. Because the drivers allocate buffers you
must also prevent MTU changes while the port is open.
</para>
<para>
Once the port is open it will call the rx_function of each channel
whenever a completed packet arrived. This is invoked from
interrupt context and passes you the channel and a network
buffer (struct sk_buff) holding the data. The data includes
the CRC bytes so most users will want to trim the last two
bytes before processing the data. This function is very timing
critical. When you wish to simply discard data the support
code provides the function <function>z8530_null_rx</function>
to discard the data.
</para>
<para>
To active PIO mode sending and receiving the <function>
z8530_sync_open</function> is called. This expects to be passed
the network device and the channel. Typically this is called from
your network device open callback. On a failure a non zero error
status is returned. The <function>z8530_sync_close</function>
function shuts down a PIO channel. This must be done before the
channel is opened again and before the driver shuts down
and unloads.
</para>
<para>
The ideal mode of operation is dual channel DMA mode. Here the
kernel driver will configure the board for DMA in both directions.
The driver also handles ISA DMA issues such as controller
programming and the memory range limit for you. This mode is
activated by calling the <function>z8530_sync_dma_open</function>
function. On failure a non zero error value is returned.
Once this mode is activated it can be shut down by calling the
<function>z8530_sync_dma_close</function>. You must call the close
function matching the open mode you used.
</para>
<para>
The final supported mode uses a single DMA channel to drive the
transmit side. As the Z85C30 has a larger FIFO on the receive
channel this tends to increase the maximum speed a little.
This is activated by calling the <function>z8530_sync_txdma_open
</function>. This returns a non zero error code on failure. The
<function>z8530_sync_txdma_close</function> function closes down
the Z8530 interface from this mode.
</para>
</chapter>
<chapter id="Network_Layer_Functions">
<title>Network Layer Functions</title>
<para>
The Z8530 layer provides functions to queue packets for
transmission. The driver internally buffers the frame currently
being transmitted and one further frame (in order to keep back
to back transmission running). Any further buffering is up to
the caller.
</para>
<para>
The function <function>z8530_queue_xmit</function> takes a network
buffer in sk_buff format and queues it for transmission. The
caller must provide the entire packet with the exception of the
bitstuffing and CRC. This is normally done by the caller via
the generic HDLC interface layer. It returns 0 if the buffer has been
queued and non zero values for queue full. If the function accepts
the buffer it becomes property of the Z8530 layer and the caller
should not free it.
</para>
<para>
The function <function>z8530_get_stats</function> returns a pointer
to an internally maintained per interface statistics block. This
provides most of the interface code needed to implement the network
layer get_stats callback.
</para>
</chapter>
<chapter id="Porting_The_Z8530_Driver">
<title>Porting The Z8530 Driver</title>
<para>
The Z8530 driver is written to be portable. In DMA mode it makes
assumptions about the use of ISA DMA. These are probably warranted
in most cases as the Z85230 in particular was designed to glue to PC
type machines. The PIO mode makes no real assumptions.
</para>
<para>
Should you need to retarget the Z8530 driver to another architecture
the only code that should need changing are the port I/O functions.
At the moment these assume PC I/O port accesses. This may not be
appropriate for all platforms. Replacing
<function>z8530_read_port</function> and <function>z8530_write_port
</function> is intended to be all that is required to port this
driver layer.
</para>

<title>Known Bugs And Assumptions</title>
<para>
<variablelist>
<varlistentry><term>Interrupt Locking</term>
<listitem>
<para>
The locking in the driver is done via the global cli/sti lock. This
makes for relatively poor SMP performance. Switching this to use a
per device spin lock would probably materially improve performance.
</para>
</listitem></varlistentry>
<varlistentry><term>Occasional Failures</term>
<listitem>
<para>
We have reports of occasional failures when run for very long
periods of time and the driver starts to receive junk frames. At
the moment the cause of this is not clear.
