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.

Device drivers must not bypass those functions - or strange side effects may happen. - </para> -!Iarch/s390/include/asm/ccwdev.h -!Edrivers/s390/cio/device.c -!Edrivers/s390/cio/device_ops.c - </sect1> - <sect1 id="cmf"> - <title>The channel-measurement facility</title> - <para> - The channel-measurement facility provides a means to collect - measurement data which is made available by the channel subsystem - for each channel attached device. - </para> -!Iarch/s390/include/asm/cmb.h -!Edrivers/s390/cio/cmf.c - </sect1> - </chapter> - - <chapter id="ccwgroup"> - <title>The ccwgroup bus</title> - <para> - 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. - </para> - <sect1 id="ccwgroupdevices"> - <title>ccw group devices</title> -!Iarch/s390/include/asm/ccwgroup.h -!Edrivers/s390/cio/ccwgroup.c - </sect1> - </chapter> - - <chapter id="genericinterfaces"> - <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. - </para> -!Edrivers/s390/cio/airq.c - </chapter> - -</book> |
