The low level driver is also +responsible for handling interrupts for the port, and providing any +console support. + + +Console Support +--------------- + +The serial core provides a few helper functions. This includes identifing +the correct port structure (via uart_get_console()) and decoding command line +arguments (uart_parse_options()). + +There is also a helper function (uart_console_write()) which performs a +character by character write, translating newlines to CRLF sequences. +Driver writers are recommended to use this function rather than implementing +their own version. + + +Locking +------- + +It is the responsibility of the low level hardware driver to perform the +necessary locking using port->lock. There are some exceptions (which +are described in the struct uart_ops listing below.) + +There are two locks. A per-port spinlock, and an overall semaphore. + +From the core driver perspective, the port->lock locks the following +data:: + + port->mctrl + port->icount + port->state->xmit.head (circ_buf->head) + port->state->xmit.tail (circ_buf->tail) + +The low level driver is free to use this lock to provide any additional +locking. + +The port_sem semaphore is used to protect against ports being added/ +removed or reconfigured at inappropriate times.

Introduction +=============== + + EIA-485, also known as TIA/EIA-485 or RS-485, is a standard defining the + electrical characteristics of drivers and receivers for use in balanced + digital multipoint systems. + This standard is widely used for communications in industrial automation + because it can be used effectively over long distances and in electrically + noisy environments. + +2. Hardware-related Considerations +================================== + + Some CPUs/UARTs (e.g., Atmel AT91 or 16C950 UART) contain a built-in + half-duplex mode capable of automatically controlling line direction by + toggling RTS or DTR signals. That can be used to control external + half-duplex hardware like an RS485 transceiver or any RS232-connected + half-duplex devices like some modems. + + For these microcontrollers, the Linux driver should be made capable of + working in both modes, and proper ioctls (see later) should be made + available at user-level to allow switching from one mode to the other, and + vice versa. + +3. Data Structures Already Available in the Kernel +================================================== + + The Linux kernel provides the serial_rs485 structure (see [1]) to handle + RS485 communications. This data structure is used to set and configure RS485 + parameters in the platform data and in ioctls. + + The device tree can also provide RS485 boot time parameters (see [2] + for bindings). The driver is in charge of filling this data structure from + the values given by the device tree. + + Any driver for devices capable of working both as RS232 and RS485 should + implement the rs485_config callback and provide rs485_supported in the + uart_port structure. The serial core calls rs485_config to do the device + specific part in response to TIOCSRS485 ioctl (see below). The rs485_config + callback receives a pointer to a sanitizated serial_rs485 structure. The + serial_rs485 userspace provides is sanitized before calling rs485_config + using rs485_supported that indicates what RS485 features the driver supports + for the uart_port. TIOCGRS485 ioctl can be used to read back the + serial_rs485 structure matching to the current configuration. + +4. Usage from user-level +======================== + + From user-level, RS485 configuration can be get/set using the previous + ioctls. For instance, to set RS485 you can use the following code:: + + #include + + /* Include definition for RS485 ioctls: TIOCGRS485 and TIOCSRS485 */ + #include + + /* Open your specific device (e.g., /dev/mydevice): */ + int fd = open ("/dev/mydevice", O_RDWR); + if (fd < 0) { + /* Error handling.

See errno. */ + } + + /* Use read() and write() syscalls here... */ + + /* Close the device when finished: */ + if (close (fd) < 0) { + /* Error handling. See errno. */ + } + +5. Multipoint Addressing +======================== + + The Linux kernel provides addressing mode for multipoint RS-485 serial + communications line. The addressing mode is enabled with SER_RS485_ADDRB + flag in serial_rs485. Struct serial_rs485 has two additional flags and + fields for enabling receive and destination addresses. + + Address mode flags: + - SER_RS485_ADDRB: Enabled addressing mode (sets also ADDRB in termios). + - SER_RS485_ADDR_RECV: Receive (filter) address enabled. + - SER_RS485_ADDR_DEST: Set destination address. + + Address fields (enabled with corresponding SER_RS485_ADDR_* flag): + - addr_recv: Receive address. + - addr_dest: Destination address. + + Once a receive address is set, the communication can occur only with the + particular device and other peers are filtered out. It is left up to the + receiver side to enforce the filtering. Receive address will be cleared + if SER_RS485_ADDR_RECV is not set. + + Note: not all devices supporting RS485 support multipoint addressing. + +6.
