- <para>
- The Linux MUSB subsystem is part of the larger Linux USB
- subsystem. It provides support for embedded USB Device Controllers
- (UDC) that do not use Universal Host Controller Interface (UHCI)
- or Open Host Controller Interface (OHCI).
- </para>
- <para>
- Instead, these embedded UDC rely on the USB On-the-Go (OTG)
- specification which they implement at least partially. The silicon
- reference design used in most cases is the Multipoint USB
- Highspeed Dual-Role Controller (MUSB HDRC) found in the Mentor
- Graphics Inventra™ design.
- </para>
- <para>
- As a self-taught exercise I have written an MUSB glue layer for
- the Ingenic JZ4740 SoC, modelled after the many MUSB glue layers
- in the kernel source tree. This layer can be found at
- drivers/usb/musb/jz4740.c. In this documentation I will walk
- through the basics of the jz4740.c glue layer, explaining the
- different pieces and what needs to be done in order to write your
- own device glue layer.

- <title>Linux MUSB Basics</title>
- <para>
- To get started on the topic, please read USB On-the-Go Basics (see
- Resources) which provides an introduction of USB OTG operation at
- the hardware level. A couple of wiki pages by Texas Instruments
- and Analog Devices also provide an overview of the Linux kernel
- MUSB configuration, albeit focused on some specific devices
- provided by these companies. Finally, getting acquainted with the
- USB specification at USB home page may come in handy, with
- practical instance provided through the Writing USB Device Drivers
- documentation (again, see Resources).
- </para>
- <para>
- Linux USB stack is a layered architecture in which the MUSB
- controller hardware sits at the lowest. The MUSB controller driver
- abstract the MUSB controller hardware to the Linux USB stack.

- </programlisting>
- <para>
- As outlined above, the glue layer is actually the platform
- specific code sitting in between the controller driver and the
- controller hardware.
- </para>
- <para>
- Just like a Linux USB driver needs to register itself with the
- Linux USB subsystem, the MUSB glue layer needs first to register
- itself with the MUSB controller driver. This will allow the
- controller driver to know about which device the glue layer
- supports and which functions to call when a supported device is
- detected or released; remember we are talking about an embedded
- controller chip here, so no insertion or removal at run-time.
- </para>
- <para>
- All of this information is passed to the MUSB controller driver
- through a platform_driver structure defined in the glue layer as:
- </para>
- <programlisting linenumbering="numbered">
-static struct platform_driver jz4740_driver = {
- .probe = jz4740_probe,
- .remove = jz4740_remove,
- .driver = {
- .name = "musb-jz4740",
- },
-};
- </programlisting>
- <para>
- The probe and remove function pointers are called when a matching
- device is detected and, respectively, released. The name string
- describes the device supported by this glue layer. In the current
- case it matches a platform_device structure declared in
- arch/mips/jz4740/platform.c. Note that we are not using device
- tree bindings here.
- </para>
- <para>
- In order to register itself to the controller driver, the glue
- layer goes through a few steps, basically allocating the
- controller hardware resources and initialising a couple of
- circuits. To do so, it needs to keep track of the information used
- throughout these steps. This is done by defining a private
- jz4740_glue structure:
- </para>
- <programlisting linenumbering="numbered">
-struct jz4740_glue {
- struct device *dev;
- struct platform_device *musb;
- struct clk *clk;
-};
- </programlisting>
- <para>
- The dev and musb members are both device structure variables. The
- first one holds generic information about the device, since it's
- the basic device structure, and the latter holds information more
- closely related to the subsystem the device is registered to. The
- clk variable keeps information related to the device clock
- operation.
- </para>
- <para>
- Let's go through the steps of the probe function that leads the
- glue layer to register itself to the controller driver.
- </para>
- <para>
- N.B.: For the sake of readability each function will be split in
- logical parts, each part being shown as if it was independent from
- the others.
- </para>
- <programlisting linenumbering="numbered">
-static int jz4740_probe(struct platform_device *pdev)
-{
- struct platform_device *musb;
- struct jz4740_glue *glue;
- struct clk *clk;
- int ret;
-
- glue = devm_kzalloc(&amp;pdev->dev, sizeof(*glue), GFP_KERNEL);
- if (!glue)
- return -ENOMEM;
-
- musb = platform_device_alloc("musb-hdrc", PLATFORM_DEVID_AUTO);
- if (!musb) {
- dev_err(&amp;pdev->dev, "failed to allocate musb device\n");
- return -ENOMEM;
- }
-
- clk = devm_clk_get(&amp;pdev->dev, "udc");
- if (IS_ERR(clk)) {
- dev_err(&amp;pdev->dev, "failed to get clock\n");
- ret = PTR_ERR(clk);
- goto err_platform_device_put;

-
-err_platform_device_put:
- platform_device_put(musb);
- return ret;
-}
- </programlisting>
- <para>
- The first few lines of the probe function allocate and assign the
- glue, musb and clk variables. The GFP_KERNEL flag (line 8) allows
- the allocation process to sleep and wait for memory, thus being
- usable in a blocking situation. The PLATFORM_DEVID_AUTO flag (line
- 12) allows automatic allocation and management of device IDs in
- order to avoid device namespace collisions with explicit IDs. With
- devm_clk_get() (line 18) the glue layer allocates the clock -- the
- <literal>devm_</literal> prefix indicates that clk_get() is
- managed: it automatically frees the allocated clock resource data
- when the device is released -- and enable it.
- </para>
- <para>
- Then comes the registration steps:
- </para>
- <programlisting linenumbering="numbered">
-static int jz4740_probe(struct platform_device *pdev)
-{
- struct musb_hdrc_platform_data *pdata = &amp;jz4740_musb_platform_data;
-
- pdata->platform_ops = &amp;jz4740_musb_ops;
-
- platform_set_drvdata(pdev, glue);
-
- ret = platform_device_add_resources(musb, pdev->resource,
- pdev->num_resources);
- if (ret) {
- dev_err(&amp;pdev->dev, "failed to add resources\n");
- goto err_clk_disable;
- }
-
- ret = platform_device_add_data(musb, pdata, sizeof(*pdata));
- if (ret) {

- goto err_clk_disable;
- }
-
- return 0;
-
-err_clk_disable:
- clk_disable_unprepare(clk);
-err_platform_device_put:
- platform_device_put(musb);
- return ret;
-}
- </programlisting>
- <para>
- The first step is to pass the device data privately held by the
- glue layer on to the controller driver through
- platform_set_drvdata() (line 7). Next is passing on the device
- resources information, also privately held at that point, through
- platform_device_add_resources() (line 9).
- </para>
- <para>
- Finally comes passing on the platform specific data to the
- controller driver (line 16). Platform data will be discussed in
- <link linkend="device-platform-data">Chapter 4</link>, but here
- we are looking at the platform_ops function pointer (line 5) in
- musb_hdrc_platform_data structure (line 3). This function
- pointer allows the MUSB controller driver to know which function
- to call for device operation:
- </para>
- <programlisting linenumbering="numbered">
-static const struct musb_platform_ops jz4740_musb_ops = {
- .init = jz4740_musb_init,
- .exit = jz4740_musb_exit,
-};
- </programlisting>
- <para>
- Here we have the minimal case where only init and exit functions
- are called by the controller driver when needed. Fact is the
- JZ4740 MUSB controller is a basic controller, lacking some
- features found in other controllers, otherwise we may also have
- pointers to a few other functions like a power management function
- or a function to switch between OTG and non-OTG modes, for
- instance.
- </para>
- <para>
- At that point of the registration process, the controller driver
- actually calls the init function:
- </para>
- <programlisting linenumbering="numbered">
-static int jz4740_musb_init(struct musb *musb)
-{
- musb->xceiv = usb_get_phy(USB_PHY_TYPE_USB2);
- if (!musb->xceiv) {
- pr_err("HS UDC: no transceiver configured\n");
- return -ENODEV;
- }
-
- /* Silicon does not implement ConfigData register.
- * Set dyn_fifo to avoid reading EP config from hardware.
- */
- musb->dyn_fifo = true;
-
- musb->isr = jz4740_musb_interrupt;
-
- return 0;
-}
- </programlisting>
- <para>
- The goal of jz4740_musb_init() is to get hold of the transceiver
- driver data of the MUSB controller hardware and pass it on to the
- MUSB controller driver, as usual. The transceiver is the circuitry
- inside the controller hardware responsible for sending/receiving
- the USB data. Since it is an implementation of the physical layer
- of the OSI model, the transceiver is also referred to as PHY.
- </para>
- <para>
- Getting hold of the MUSB PHY driver data is done with
- usb_get_phy() which returns a pointer to the structure
- containing the driver instance data. The next couple of
- instructions (line 12 and 14) are used as a quirk and to setup
- IRQ handling respectively. Quirks and IRQ handling will be
- discussed later in <link linkend="device-quirks">Chapter
- 5</link> and <link linkend="handling-irqs">Chapter 3</link>.
- </para>
- <programlisting linenumbering="numbered">
-static int jz4740_musb_exit(struct musb *musb)
-{
- usb_put_phy(musb->xceiv);
-
- return 0;
-}
- </programlisting>
- <para>
- Acting as the counterpart of init, the exit function releases the
- MUSB PHY driver when the controller hardware itself is about to be
- released.
- </para>
- <para>
- Again, note that init and exit are fairly simple in this case due
- to the basic set of features of the JZ4740 controller hardware.
- When writing an musb glue layer for a more complex controller
- hardware, you might need to take care of more processing in those
- two functions.
- </para>
- <para>
- Returning from the init function, the MUSB controller driver jumps
- back into the probe function:
- </para>
- <programlisting linenumbering="numbered">

- clk_disable_unprepare(clk);
-err_platform_device_put:
- platform_device_put(musb);
- return ret;
-}
- </programlisting>
- <para>
- This is the last part of the device registration process where the
- glue layer adds the controller hardware device to Linux kernel
- device hierarchy: at this stage, all known information about the
- device is passed on to the Linux USB core stack.
- </para>
- <programlisting linenumbering="numbered">
-static int jz4740_remove(struct platform_device *pdev)

-}
- </programlisting>
- <para>
- Acting as the counterpart of probe, the remove function unregister
- the MUSB controller hardware (line 5) and disable the clock (line
- 6), allowing it to be gated.
- </para>
- </chapter>
-
- <chapter id="handling-irqs">
- <title>Handling IRQs</title>
- <para>
- Additionally to the MUSB controller hardware basic setup and
- registration, the glue layer is also responsible for handling the
- IRQs:
- </para>
- <programlisting linenumbering="numbered">
-static irqreturn_t jz4740_musb_interrupt(int irq, void *__hci)

- retval = musb_interrupt(musb);
-
- spin_unlock_irqrestore(&amp;musb->lock, flags);
-
- return retval;
-}
- </programlisting>
- <para>
- Here the glue layer mostly has to read the relevant hardware
- registers and pass their values on to the controller driver which
- will handle the actual event that triggered the IRQ.
- </para>
- <para>
- The interrupt handler critical section is protected by the
- spin_lock_irqsave() and counterpart spin_unlock_irqrestore()
- functions (line 7 and 24 respectively), which prevent the
- interrupt handler code to be run by two different threads at the
- same time.
- </para>
- <para>
- Then the relevant interrupt registers are read (line 9 to 11):
- </para>
- <itemizedlist>
- <listitem>
- <para>
- MUSB_INTRUSB: indicates which USB interrupts are currently
- active,
- </para>
- </listitem>
- <listitem>
- <para>
- MUSB_INTRTX: indicates which of the interrupts for TX
- endpoints are currently active,

- </listitem>
- <listitem>
- <para>
- MUSB_INTRRX: indicates which of the interrupts for TX
- endpoints are currently active.
- </para>
- </listitem>
- </itemizedlist>
- <para>
- Note that musb_readb() is used to read 8-bit registers at most,
- while musb_readw() allows us to read at most 16-bit registers.
- There are other functions that can be used depending on the size
- of your device registers. See musb_io.h for more information.
- </para>
- <para>
- Instruction on line 18 is another quirk specific to the JZ4740
- USB device controller, which will be discussed later in <link
- linkend="device-quirks">Chapter 5</link>.
- </para>
- <para>
- The glue layer still needs to register the IRQ handler though.
- Remember the instruction on line 14 of the init function:
- </para>
- <programlisting linenumbering="numbered">
-static int jz4740_musb_init(struct musb *musb)
-{
- musb->isr = jz4740_musb_interrupt;
-
- return 0;
-}
- </programlisting>
- <para>
- This instruction sets a pointer to the glue layer IRQ handler
- function, in order for the controller hardware to call the handler
- back when an IRQ comes from the controller hardware. The interrupt
- handler is now implemented and registered.
- </para>
- </chapter>
-
- <chapter id="device-platform-data">
- <title>Device Platform Data</title>
- <para>
- In order to write an MUSB glue layer, you need to have some data
- describing the hardware capabilities of your controller hardware,
- which is called the platform data.
- </para>
- <para>
- Platform data is specific to your hardware, though it may cover a
- broad range of devices, and is generally found somewhere in the
- arch/ directory, depending on your device architecture.
- </para>
- <para>
- For instance, platform data for the JZ4740 SoC is found in
- arch/mips/jz4740/platform.c. In the platform.c file each device of
- the JZ4740 SoC is described through a set of structures.
- </para>
- <para>
- Here is the part of arch/mips/jz4740/platform.c that covers the
- USB Device Controller (UDC):
- </para>
- <programlisting linenumbering="numbered">

- </programlisting>
- <para>
- The jz4740_udc_xceiv_device platform device structure (line 2)
- describes the UDC transceiver with a name and id number.
- </para>
- <para>
- At the time of this writing, note that
- &quot;usb_phy_gen_xceiv&quot; is the specific name to be used for
- all transceivers that are either built-in with reference USB IP or
- autonomous and doesn't require any PHY programming. You will need
- to set CONFIG_NOP_USB_XCEIV=y in the kernel configuration to make
- use of the corresponding transceiver driver. The id field could be
- set to -1 (equivalent to PLATFORM_DEVID_NONE), -2 (equivalent to
- PLATFORM_DEVID_AUTO) or start with 0 for the first device of this
- kind if we want a specific id number.
- </para>
- <para>
- The jz4740_udc_resources resource structure (line 7) defines the
- UDC registers base addresses.
- </para>
- <para>
- The first array (line 9 to 11) defines the UDC registers base
- memory addresses: start points to the first register memory
- address, end points to the last register memory address and the
- flags member defines the type of resource we are dealing with. So
- IORESOURCE_MEM is used to define the registers memory addresses.
- The second array (line 14 to 17) defines the UDC IRQ registers
- addresses. Since there is only one IRQ register available for the
- JZ4740 UDC, start and end point at the same address. The
- IORESOURCE_IRQ flag tells that we are dealing with IRQ resources,
- and the name &quot;mc&quot; is in fact hard-coded in the MUSB core
- in order for the controller driver to retrieve this IRQ resource
- by querying it by its name.
- </para>
- <para>
- Finally, the jz4740_udc_device platform device structure (line 21)
- describes the UDC itself.
- </para>
- <para>
- The &quot;musb-jz4740&quot; name (line 22) defines the MUSB
- driver that is used for this device; remember this is in fact
- the name that we used in the jz4740_driver platform driver
- structure in <link linkend="linux-musb-basics">Chapter
- 2</link>. The id field (line 23) is set to -1 (equivalent to
- PLATFORM_DEVID_NONE) since we do not need an id for the device:
- the MUSB controller driver was already set to allocate an
- automatic id in <link linkend="linux-musb-basics">Chapter
- 2</link>. In the dev field we care for DMA related information
- here. The dma_mask field (line 25) defines the width of the DMA
- mask that is going to be used, and coherent_dma_mask (line 26)
- has the same purpose but for the alloc_coherent DMA mappings: in
- both cases we are using a 32 bits mask. Then the resource field
- (line 29) is simply a pointer to the resource structure defined
- before, while the num_resources field (line 28) keeps track of
- the number of arrays defined in the resource structure (in this
- case there were two resource arrays defined before).
- </para>
- <para>
- With this quick overview of the UDC platform data at the arch/
- level now done, let's get back to the MUSB glue layer specific
- platform data in drivers/usb/musb/jz4740.c:
- </para>
- <programlisting linenumbering="numbered">

- <para>
- First the glue layer configures some aspects of the controller

- This is done through the jz4740_musb_config musb_hdrc_config
- structure.
- </para>
- <para>
- Defining the OTG capability of the controller hardware, the
- multipoint member (line 3) is set to 0 (equivalent to false)
- since the JZ4740 UDC is not OTG compatible. Then num_eps (line
- 5) defines the number of USB endpoints of the controller
- hardware, including endpoint 0: here we have 3 endpoints +
- endpoint 0. Next is ram_bits (line 7) which is the width of the
- RAM address bus for the MUSB controller hardware. This
- information is needed when the controller driver cannot
- automatically configure endpoints by reading the relevant
- controller hardware registers. This issue will be discussed when
- we get to device quirks in <link linkend="device-quirks">Chapter
- 5</link>. Last two fields (line 8 and 9) are also about device
- quirks: fifo_cfg points to the USB endpoints configuration table
- and fifo_cfg_size keeps track of the size of the number of
- entries in that configuration table. More on that later in <link

- Then this configuration is embedded inside
- jz4740_musb_platform_data musb_hdrc_platform_data structure (line
- 11): config is a pointer to the configuration structure itself,
- and mode tells the controller driver if the controller hardware
- may be used as MUSB_HOST only, MUSB_PERIPHERAL only or MUSB_OTG
- which is a dual mode.

- Remember that jz4740_musb_platform_data is then used to convey

- <title>Device Quirks</title>
- <para>
- Completing the platform data specific to your device, you may also
- need to write some code in the glue layer to work around some
- device specific limitations. These quirks may be due to some
- hardware bugs, or simply be the result of an incomplete
- implementation of the USB On-the-Go specification.
- </para>
- <para>
- The JZ4740 UDC exhibits such quirks, some of which we will discuss
- here for the sake of insight even though these might not be found
- in the controller hardware you are working on.
- </para>
- <para>
- Let's get back to the init function first:
- </para>
- <programlisting linenumbering="numbered">
-static int jz4740_musb_init(struct musb *musb)
-{
- musb->xceiv = usb_get_phy(USB_PHY_TYPE_USB2);
- if (!musb->xceiv) {
- pr_err("HS UDC: no transceiver configured\n");
- return -ENODEV;
- }
-
- /* Silicon does not implement ConfigData register.
- * Set dyn_fifo to avoid reading EP config from hardware.
- */
- musb->dyn_fifo = true;
-
- musb->isr = jz4740_musb_interrupt;
-
- return 0;
-}
- </programlisting>
- <para>
- Instruction on line 12 helps the MUSB controller driver to work
- around the fact that the controller hardware is missing registers
- that are used for USB endpoints configuration.
- </para>
- <para>
- Without these registers, the controller driver is unable to read
- the endpoints configuration from the hardware, so we use line 12
- instruction to bypass reading the configuration from silicon, and
- rely on a hard-coded table that describes the endpoints
- configuration instead:
- </para>
- <programlisting linenumbering="numbered">
-static struct musb_fifo_cfg jz4740_musb_fifo_cfg[] = {
-{ .hw_ep_num = 1, .style = FIFO_TX, .maxpacket = 512, },
-{ .hw_ep_num = 1, .style = FIFO_RX, .maxpacket = 512, },
-{ .hw_ep_num = 2, .style = FIFO_TX, .maxpacket = 64, },
-};
- </programlisting>
- <para>
- Looking at the configuration table above, we see that each
- endpoints is described by three fields: hw_ep_num is the endpoint
- number, style is its direction (either FIFO_TX for the controller
- driver to send packets in the controller hardware, or FIFO_RX to
- receive packets from hardware), and maxpacket defines the maximum
- size of each data packet that can be transmitted over that
- endpoint. Reading from the table, the controller driver knows that
- endpoint 1 can be used to send and receive USB data packets of 512
- bytes at once (this is in fact a bulk in/out endpoint), and
- endpoint 2 can be used to send data packets of 64 bytes at once
- (this is in fact an interrupt endpoint).
- </para>
- <para>
- Note that there is no information about endpoint 0 here: that one
- is implemented by default in every silicon design, with a
- predefined configuration according to the USB specification. For
- more examples of endpoint configuration tables, see musb_core.c.
- </para>
- <para>
- Let's now get back to the interrupt handler function:
- </para>
- <programlisting linenumbering="numbered">
-static irqreturn_t jz4740_musb_interrupt(int irq, void *__hci)
-{
- unsigned long flags;
- irqreturn_t retval = IRQ_NONE;
- struct musb *musb = __hci;
-
- spin_lock_irqsave(&amp;musb->lock, flags);
-
- musb->int_usb = musb_readb(musb->mregs, MUSB_INTRUSB);
- musb->int_tx = musb_readw(musb->mregs, MUSB_INTRTX);
- musb->int_rx = musb_readw(musb->mregs, MUSB_INTRRX);
-
- /*
- * The controller is gadget only, the state of the host mode IRQ bits is
- * undefined. Mask them to make sure that the musb driver core will
- * never see them set
- */
- musb->int_usb &amp;= MUSB_INTR_SUSPEND | MUSB_INTR_RESUME |
- MUSB_INTR_RESET | MUSB_INTR_SOF;
-
- if (musb->int_usb || musb->int_tx || musb->int_rx)
- retval = musb_interrupt(musb);
-
- spin_unlock_irqrestore(&amp;musb->lock, flags);
-
- return retval;
-}
- </programlisting>
- <para>
- Instruction on line 18 above is a way for the controller driver to
- work around the fact that some interrupt bits used for USB host
- mode operation are missing in the MUSB_INTRUSB register, thus left
- in an undefined hardware state, since this MUSB controller
- hardware is used in peripheral mode only. As a consequence, the
- glue layer masks these missing bits out to avoid parasite
- interrupts by doing a logical AND operation between the value read
- from MUSB_INTRUSB and the bits that are actually implemented in
- the register.
- </para>
- <para>
- These are only a couple of the quirks found in the JZ4740 USB
- device controller. Some others were directly addressed in the MUSB
- core since the fixes were generic enough to provide a better
- handling of the issues for others controller hardware eventually.

- <title>Conclusion</title>
- <para>
- Writing a Linux MUSB glue layer should be a more accessible task,
- as this documentation tries to show the ins and outs of this
- exercise.
- </para>
- <para>
- The JZ4740 USB device controller being fairly simple, I hope its
- glue layer serves as a good example for the curious mind. Used
- with the current MUSB glue layers, this documentation should
- provide enough guidance to get started; should anything gets out
- of hand, the linux-usb mailing list archive is another helpful
- resource to browse through.
