This gives relief to the device drivers as they don't +have to deal with different bus types, polling versus interrupt +processing, shared versus non-shared interrupt processing, DMA versus port +I/O (PIO), and other hardware features more. However, this implies that +either every single device driver needs to implement the hardware I/O +attachment functionality itself, or the operating system provides for a +unified method to access the hardware, providing all the functionality that +every single device driver would have to provide itself. + +The document does not intend to explain the ESA/390 hardware architecture in +every detail.This information can be obtained from the ESA/390 Principles of +Operation manual (IBM Form. No. SA22-7201). + +In order to build common device support for ESA/390 I/O interfaces, a +functional layer was introduced that provides generic I/O access methods to +the hardware. + +The common device support layer comprises the I/O support routines defined +below. Some of them implement common Linux device driver interfaces, while +some of them are ESA/390 platform specific. + +Note: + In order to write a driver for S/390, you also need to look into the interface + described in Documentation/s390/driver-model.rst. + +Note for porting drivers from 2.4: + +The major changes are: + +* The functions use a ccw_device instead of an irq (subchannel). +* All drivers must define a ccw_driver (see driver-model.txt) and the associated + functions. +* request_irq() and free_irq() are no longer done by the driver. +* The oper_handler is (kindof) replaced by the probe() and set_online() functions + of the ccw_driver. +* The not_oper_handler is (kindof) replaced by the remove() and set_offline() + functions of the ccw_driver. +* The channel device layer is gone. +* The interrupt handlers must be adapted to use a ccw_device as argument. + Moreover, they don't return a devstat, but an irb. +* Before initiating an io, the options must be set via ccw_device_set_options(). +* Instead of calling read_dev_chars()/read_conf_data(), the driver issues + the channel program and handles the interrupt itself. + +ccw_device_get_ciw() + get commands from extended sense data. + +ccw_device_start(), ccw_device_start_timeout(), ccw_device_start_key(), ccw_device_start_key_timeout() + initiate an I/O request. + +ccw_device_resume() + resume channel program execution. + +ccw_device_halt() + terminate the current I/O request processed on the device. + +do_IRQ() + generic interrupt routine. This function is called by the interrupt entry + routine whenever an I/O interrupt is presented to the system. The do_IRQ() + routine determines the interrupt status and calls the device specific + interrupt handler according to the rules (flags) defined during I/O request + initiation with do_IO(). + +The next chapters describe the functions other than do_IRQ() in more details. +The do_IRQ() interface is not described, as it is called from the Linux/390 +first level interrupt handler only and does not comprise a device driver +callable interface. Instead, the functional description of do_IO() also +describes the input to the device specific interrupt handler. + +Note: + All explanations apply also to the 64 bit architecture s390x. + + +Common Device Support (CDS) for Linux/390 Device Drivers +======================================================== + +General Information +------------------- + +The following chapters describe the I/O related interface routines the +Linux/390 common device support (CDS) provides to allow for device specific +driver implementations on the IBM ESA/390 hardware platform. Those interfaces +intend to provide the functionality required by every device driver +implementation to allow to drive a specific hardware device on the ESA/390 +platform. Some of the interface routines are specific to Linux/390 and some +of them can be found on other Linux platforms implementations too. +Miscellaneous function prototypes, data declarations, and macro definitions +can be found in the architecture specific C header file +linux/arch/s390/include/asm/irq.h. + +Overview of CDS interface concepts +---------------------------------- + +Different to other hardware platforms, the ESA/390 architecture doesn't define +interrupt lines managed by a specific interrupt controller and bus systems +that may or may not allow for shared interrupts, DMA processing, etc.. Instead, +the ESA/390 architecture has implemented a so called channel subsystem, that +provides a unified view of the devices physically attached to the systems. +Though the ESA/390 hardware platform knows about a huge variety of different +peripheral attachments like disk devices (aka. DASDs), tapes, communication +controllers, etc. they can all be accessed by a well defined access method and +they are presenting I/O completion a unified way : I/O interruptions. Every +single device is uniquely identified to the system by a so called subchannel, +where the ESA/390 architecture allows for 64k devices be attached. + +Linux, however, was first built on the Intel PC architecture, with its two +cascaded 8259 programmable interrupt controllers (PICs), that allow for a +maximum of 15 different interrupt lines. All devices attached to such a system +share those 15 interrupt levels. Devices attached to the ISA bus system must +not share interrupt levels (aka. IRQs), as the ISA bus bases on edge triggered +interrupts. MCA, EISA, PCI and other bus systems base on level triggered +interrupts, and therewith allow for shared IRQs. However, if multiple devices +present their hardware status by the same (shared) IRQ, the operating system +has to call every single device driver registered on this IRQ in order to +determine the device driver owning the device that raised the interrupt. + +Up to kernel 2.4, Linux/390 used to provide interfaces via the IRQ (subchannel). +For internal use of the common I/O layer, these are still there. However, +device drivers should use the new calling interface via the ccw_device only. + +During its startup the Linux/390 system checks for peripheral devices. Each +of those devices is uniquely defined by a so called subchannel by the ESA/390 +channel subsystem. While the subchannel numbers are system generated, each +subchannel also takes a user defined attribute, the so called device number. +Both subchannel number and device number cannot exceed 65535. During sysfs +initialisation, the information about control unit type and device types that +imply specific I/O commands (channel command words - CCWs) in order to operate +the device are gathered. Device drivers can retrieve this set of hardware +information during their initialization step to recognize the devices they +support using the information saved in the struct ccw_device given to them. +This methods implies that Linux/390 doesn't require to probe for free (not +armed) interrupt request lines (IRQs) to drive its devices with. Where +applicable, the device drivers can use issue the READ DEVICE CHARACTERISTICS +ccw to retrieve device characteristics in its online routine. + +In order to allow for easy I/O initiation the CDS layer provides a +ccw_device_start() interface that takes a device specific channel program (one +or more CCWs) as input sets up the required architecture specific control blocks +and initiates an I/O request on behalf of the device driver. The +ccw_device_start() routine allows to specify whether it expects the CDS layer +to notify the device driver for every interrupt it observes, or with final status +only. See ccw_device_start() for more details. A device driver must never issue +ESA/390 I/O commands itself, but must use the Linux/390 CDS interfaces instead. + +For long running I/O request to be canceled, the CDS layer provides the +ccw_device_halt() function. Some devices require to initially issue a HALT +SUBCHANNEL (HSCH) command without having pending I/O requests. This function is +also covered by ccw_device_halt(). + + +get_ciw() - get command information word + +This call enables a device driver to get information about supported commands +from the extended SenseID data. + +:: + + struct ciw * + ccw_device_get_ciw(struct ccw_device *cdev, __u32 cmd); + +==== ======================================================== +cdev The ccw_device for which the command is to be retrieved. +cmd The command type to be retrieved. +==== ======================================================== + +ccw_device_get_ciw() returns: + +===== ================================================================ + NULL No extended data available, invalid device or command not found. +!NULL The command requested. +===== ================================================================ + +:: + + ccw_device_start() - Initiate I/O Request + +The ccw_device_start() routines is the I/O request front-end processor. All +device driver I/O requests must be issued using this routine. A device driver +must not issue ESA/390 I/O commands itself.

If a pending device status was recognized, +intparm will be set to 0 (zero). This may happen during I/O initiation or delayed +by an alert status notification. In any case this status is not related to the +current (last) I/O request. In case of a delayed status notification no special +interrupt will be presented to indicate I/O completion as the I/O request was +never started, even though ccw_device_start() returned with successful completion. + +The irb may contain an error value, and the device driver should check for this +first: + +========== ================================================================= +-ETIMEDOUT the common I/O layer terminated the request after the specified + timeout value +-EIO the common I/O layer terminated the request due to an error state +========== ================================================================= + +If the concurrent sense flag in the extended status word (esw) in the irb is +set, the field erw.scnt in the esw describes the number of device specific +sense bytes available in the extended control word irb->scsw.ecw[].

It is not required to schedule a +bottom-half, unless a non deterministically long running error recovery procedure +or similar needs to be scheduled. During I/O processing the Linux/390 generic +I/O device driver support has already obtained the IRQ lock, i.e. the handler +must not try to obtain it again when calling ccw_device_start() or we end in a +deadlock situation! + +If a device driver relies on an I/O request to be completed prior to start the +next it can reduce I/O processing overhead by chaining a NoOp I/O command +CCW_CMD_NOOP to the end of the submitted CCW chain. This will force Channel-End +and Device-End status to be presented together, with a single interrupt. +However, this should be used with care as it implies the channel will remain +busy, not being able to process I/O requests for other devices on the same +channel. Therefore e.g. read commands should never use this technique, as the +result will be presented by a single interrupt anyway. + +In order to minimize I/O overhead, a device driver should use the +DOIO_REPORT_ALL only if the device can report intermediate interrupt +information prior to device-end the device driver urgently relies on. In this +case all I/O interruptions are presented to the device driver until final +status is recognized. + +If a device is able to recover from asynchronously presented I/O errors, it can +perform overlapping I/O using the DOIO_EARLY_NOTIFICATION flag. While some +devices always report channel-end and device-end together, with a single +interrupt, others present primary status (channel-end) when the channel is +ready for the next I/O request and secondary status (device-end) when the data +transmission has been completed at the device. + +Above flag allows to exploit this feature, e.g. for communication devices that +can handle lost data on the network to allow for enhanced I/O processing. + +Unless the channel subsystem at any time presents a secondary status interrupt, +exploiting this feature will cause only primary status interrupts to be +presented to the device driver while overlapping I/O is performed. When a +secondary status without error (alert status) is presented, this indicates +successful completion for all overlapping ccw_device_start() requests that have +been issued since the last secondary (final) status. + +Channel programs that intend to set the suspend flag on a channel command word +(CCW) must start the I/O operation with the DOIO_ALLOW_SUSPEND option or the +suspend flag will cause a channel program check. At the time the channel program +becomes suspended an intermediate interrupt will be generated by the channel +subsystem. + +ccw_device_resume() - Resume Channel Program Execution + +If a device driver chooses to suspend the current channel program execution by +setting the CCW suspend flag on a particular CCW, the channel program execution +is suspended. In order to resume channel program execution the CIO layer +provides the ccw_device_resume() routine. + +:: + + int ccw_device_resume(struct ccw_device *cdev); + +==== ================================================ +cdev ccw_device the resume operation is requested for +==== ================================================ + +The ccw_device_resume() function returns: + +========= ============================================== + 0 suspended channel program is resumed + -EBUSY status pending + -ENODEV cdev invalid or not-operational subchannel + -EINVAL resume function not applicable +-ENOTCONN there is no I/O request pending for completion +========= ============================================== + +Usage Notes: + +Please have a look at the ccw_device_start() usage notes for more details on +suspended channel programs. + +ccw_device_halt() - Halt I/O Request Processing + +Sometimes a device driver might need a possibility to stop the processing of +a long-running channel program or the device might require to initially issue +a halt subchannel (HSCH) I/O command. For those purposes the ccw_device_halt() +command is provided. + +ccw_device_halt() must be called disabled and with the ccw device lock held. + +:: + + int ccw_device_halt(struct ccw_device *cdev, + unsigned long intparm); + +======= ===================================================== +cdev ccw_device the halt operation is requested for +intparm interruption parameter; value is only used if no I/O + is outstanding, otherwise the intparm associated with + the I/O request is returned +======= ===================================================== + +The ccw_device_halt() function returns: + +======= ============================================================== + 0 request successfully initiated +-EBUSY the device is currently busy, or status pending. +-ENODEV cdev invalid. +-EINVAL The device is not operational or the ccw device is not online. +======= ============================================================== + +Usage Notes: + +A device driver may write a never-ending channel program by writing a channel +program that at its end loops back to its beginning by means of a transfer in +channel (TIC) command (CCW_CMD_TIC). Usually this is performed by network +device drivers by setting the PCI CCW flag (CCW_FLAG_PCI). Once this CCW is +executed a program controlled interrupt (PCI) is generated. The device driver +can then perform an appropriate action. Prior to interrupt of an outstanding +read to a network device (with or without PCI flag) a ccw_device_halt() +is required to end the pending operation. + +:: + + ccw_device_clear() - Terminage I/O Request Processing + +In order to terminate all I/O processing at the subchannel, the clear subchannel +(CSCH) command is used.
