At the lowest level are the socket drivers. Next is the Card Services module. Drivers for specific cards are layered on top of Card Services. One special Card Services client, called Driver Services, provides a link betweek user level utility programs and the kernel facilities. The socket driver layer is loosely based on the Socket Services API. There are two socket driver modules. The <tt/tcic/ module supports the Databook TCIC-2 family of host controllers. The <tt/i82365/ module supports the Intel i82365sl family and various Intel-compatible controllers, including Cirrus, VLSI, Ricoh, and Vadem chips. In addition, the <tt/i82365/ module implements support for CardBus controllers that follow the ``Yenta'' register-level specification. Card Services is the largest single component of the package. It provides an API somewhat similar to DOS Card Services, adapted to a Unix environment. The Linux implementation was based in part on the Solaris interface specification. It is implemented in the <tt/pcmcia_core/ module. Most version 2.1 features are implemented, with some PC Card 95 features. The Driver Services layer implements a user mode pseudo-device for accessing some Card Services functions from utility programs. It is responsible for keeping track of all client drivers, and for matching up drivers with physical sockets. It is implemented in the <tt/ds/ module. This document describes the kernel interface to the Card Services and Driver Services modules, and the user interface to Driver Services. It is intended for use by client device driver developers. The Linux PCMCIA-HOWTO describes how to install and use Linux PCMCIA support. It is available from <url url="http://pcmcia-cs.sourceforge.net">. <!-- ================================================================= --> <sect1>Copyright notice and disclaimer <p> Copyright (c) 1996-2002 David A.

The first mode was defined by the original Version 1.0 specification and only supports simple memory cards. The second mode, defined in Version 2.0, redefines a few of the memory card control signals to support IO port addressing and IO interrupt signalling. PC Card devices have two memory spaces: ``attribute memory'' and ``common memory''. The interface can address up to 16MB of each type of memory. Attribute memory is typically used for holding descriptive information and configuration registers. Common memory may include the bulk storage of a memory card, or device buffers in the case of IO cards. All cards that are compliant with the version 2.0 PC Card specification should have a Card Information Structure (or ``CIS'') in attribute memory, which describes the card and how it should be configured. Separate control signals allow cards to signal their operating status to the host. These signals include card detect, ready/busy, write protect, battery low, and battery dead. The ``memory and IO'' interface mode allows cards to address up to 64K of IO ports. It also allows cards to signal IO interrupts, and routes one card output to the host system's speaker. In this mode, several of the memory card control signals are unavailable because those pins are used to carry the extra IO card signals. On some cards, these signals can instead be read from a special configuration register in attribute memory, the ``Pin Replacement Register''. <sect1>The socket controller <p> The socket controller serves as a bridge between PC Card devices and the system bus. There are several varieties of controllers, but all share the same basic functionality. The Socket Services software layer takes care of all the details of how to program the host controller. The socket controller has the job of mapping windows of addresses in the host memory and IO spaces to windows of addresses in card space. All supported controllers support at least four independent memory windows and two IO windows per socket. Each memory window is defined by a base address in the host address space, a base address in the card address space, and a window size. Some controllers differ in their alignment rules for memory windows, but all controllers will support windows whose size is at least 4K and also a power of two, and where the base address is a multiple of the window size. Each window can be programmed to point to either attribute or common memory. IO windows differ from memory windows in that host addresses that fall within an IO window are not modified before they are passed on to an IO card. Effectively, the base addresses of the window in the host and card address spaces are always equal. IO windows also have no alignment or size restrictions; an IO window can start and end on any byte boundary in the 64K IO address space. The PC Card bus defines a single interrupt signal from the card to the controller. The controller then has the responsibility of steering this interrupt to an appropriate interrupt request (``irq'') line. All controllers support steering card IO interrupts to essentially any free interrupt line. Because steering happens in the controller, the card itself is unaware of which interrupt it uses. All PC Card controllers can generate interrupts in response to card status changes. These interrupts are distinct from the IO interrupts generated by an IO card, and use a separate interrupt line. Signals that can generate interrupts include card detect, ready/busy, write protect, battery low, and battery dead. <!-- ================================================================= --> <sect>Card Services Subfunction Descriptions <p> Card Services calls have the general form: <tscreen><verb> #include "cs_types.h" #include "cs.h" int CardServices(int subfunc, void *arg1, void *arg2, ...); </verb></tscreen> Some Card Services functions require additional <tt/#include/ statements. The particular subfunction determines the number of expected arguments. A return code of <tt/CS_SUCCESS/ indicates that a call succeeded. Other return codes indicate errors. <!-- ================================================================= --> <sect1>Client management functions <p> Device drivers that use Card Services functions are called ``clients''. A device driver should use the <tt/RegisterClient/ call to get a client handle before using other services. Most Card Services functions will take this client handle as an argument. Before unloading, drivers should also unregister with <tt/DeregisterClient/. <!-- ================================================================= --> <sect2>RegisterClient <p> <tscreen><verb> int CardServices(RegisterClient, client_handle_t *client, client_reg_t *reg); </verb></tscreen> The <tt/client_reg_t/ data structure is given by: <tscreen><verb> typedef struct client_reg_t { dev_info_t *dev_info; u_int Attributes; u_int EventMask; int (*event_handler)(event_t event, int priority, event_callback_args_t *args); event_callback_args_t event_callback_args; u_int Version; } client_reg_t; </verb></tscreen> <tt/RegisterClient/ establishes a link between a client driver and Card Services, and connects the client with an appropriate socket. The <tt/dev_info/ parameter is used by Card Services to match the client with a socket and function; this correspondence is normally established by Driver Services via a call to <tt/BindDevice/. If successful, a client handle will be returned in <tt/client/. The following flags can be specified in <tt/Attributes/: <descrip> <tag><tt/INFO_MASTER_CLIENT/</tag> For use only by the Driver Services client. Among other things, specifies that this client should not be automatically unbound when a card is ejected from this socket. <tag><tt/INFO_IO_CLIENT/</tag> Specifies that this client is an IO card driver. <tag><tt/INFO_MTD_CLIENT/</tag> Specifies that this client is a Memory Technology Driver. <tag><tt/INFO_MEM_CLIENT/</tag> Specifies that this client is a memory card driver. <tag><tt/INFO_CARD_SHARE/</tag> Included for compatibility, has no effect. <tag><tt/INFO_CARD_EXCL/</tag> Included for compatibility, has no effect. </descrip> <tt/EventMask/ specifies what events this client should be notified of. The <tt/event_handler/ entry point will be called by Card Services when an event in <tt/EventMask/ is processed. The <tt/event_handler_args/ structure is a template for the structure that will be passed to the event handler. The <tt/Version/ parameter identifies the Card Services version level that this driver expects; it is currently ignored. A driver should be prepared to handle Card Services events before calling <tt/RegisterClient/. This call will always generate a <tt/CS_REGISTRATION_COMPLETE/ event, and may also generate an artificial <tt/CS_CARD_INSERTION/ event if the socket is currently occupied. Return codes: <descrip> <tag><tt/CS_OUT_OF_RESOURCE/</tag> An appropriate socket could not be found for this driver. </descrip> <!-- ================================================================= --> <sect2>DeregisterClient <p> <tscreen><verb> int CardServices(DeregisterClient, client_handle_t client); </verb></tscreen> <tt/DeregisterClient/ severs the connection between a client and Card Services. It should be called after the client has freed any resources it has allocated. Once a connection is broken, it cannot be reestablished until after another call to <tt/BindDevice/. Return codes: <descrip> <tag><tt/CS_BAD_HANDLE/</tag> The client handle is invalid. <tag><tt/CS_IN_USE/</tag> The client still has allocated resources, such as IO port windows or an interrupt, or the socket configuration is locked. </descrip> <!-- ================================================================= --> <sect2>SetEventMask <p> <tscreen><verb> int CardServices(SetEventMask, client_handle_t client, eventmask_t *mask); </verb></tscreen> The <tt/eventmask_t/ structure is given by: <tscreen><verb> typedef struct eventmask_t { u_int Attributes; u_int EventMask; } eventmask_t; </verb></tscreen> <tt/SetEventMask/ updates the mask that determines which events this client will be notified of. Return codes: <descrip> <tag><tt/CS_BAD_HANDLE/</tag> The client handle is invalid. </descrip> <!-- ================================================================= --> <sect2>BindDevice <p> <tscreen><verb> int CardServices(BindDevice, bind_req_t *req); </verb></tscreen> The <tt/bind_req/ structure is given by: <tscreen><verb> typedef struct bind_req_t { socket_t Socket; u_char Function; dev_info_t *dev_info; } bind_req_t; </verb></tscreen> <tt/BindDevice/ associates a device driver with a particular socket. It is normally called by Driver Services after a newly inserted card has been identified. Once a driver has been bound to a socket, it will be eligible to register as a client of that socket. Note that this call does not take a client handle as an argument. This is the only Card Services call that takes a socket number as an argument. The <tt/Function/ field specifies which function(s) of a multifunction card are to be bound to this driver. Function numbers correspond to entries in the card's <tt/CISTPL_LONGLINK_MFC/ tuple. If <tt/Function/ is set to <tt/BIND_FN_ALL/, the driver will be bound to all card functions. A driver will only be able to access CIS tuples corresponding to functions for which it is bound. Return codes: <descrip> <tag><tt/CS_BAD_SOCKET/</tag> The specified socket number is invalid. </descrip> <!-- ================================================================= --> <sect1>Socket state control <p> These functions are more or less concerned with getting and setting the current operating state of a socket. <tt/GetStatus/ returns the current socket state. <tt/ResetCard/ is used to send a hard reset signal to a socket. <tt/SuspendCard/ and <tt/ResumeCard/ can be used to power down and power up a socket without releasing the drivers currently bound to that socket. <tt/EjectCard/ and <tt/InsertCard/ essentially mimic real card ejection and insertion events. <!-- ================================================================= --> <sect2>GetStatus <p> <tscreen><verb> int CardServices(GetStatus, client_handle_t client, cs_status_t *status); </verb></tscreen> The <tt/cs_status_t/ data structure is given by: <tscreen><verb> typedef struct cs_status_t { u_char Function; u_int CardState; u_int SocketState; } cs_status_t; </verb></tscreen> <tt/GetStatus/ returns the current status of a client's socket. For cards that are configured in IO mode, <tt/GetStatus/ uses the Pin Replacement Register and Extended Status Register to determine the card status. For normal clients, the <tt/Function/ field is ignored, but for clients bound with <tt/BIND_FN_ALL/, this field specifies the function whose configuration registers should be used to determine the socket state, if the socket is currently configured. The following flags are defined in <tt/CardState/: <descrip> <tag><tt/CS_EVENT_CARD_DETECT/</tag> Specifies that the socket is occupied. <tag><tt/CS_EVENT_CB_DETECT/</tag> Specifies that the socket is occupied by a CardBus device. <tag><tt/CS_EVENT_WRITE_PROTECT/</tag> Specifies that the card is currently write protected. <tag><tt/CS_EVENT_BATTERY_LOW/</tag> Specifies that the card battery is low. <tag><tt/CS_EVENT_BATTERY_DEAD/</tag> Specifies that the card battery is dead. <tag><tt/CS_EVENT_READY_CHANGE/</tag> Specifies that the card is ready. <tag><tt/CS_EVENT_PM_SUSPEND/</tag> Specifies that the socket is suspended. <tag><tt/CS_EVENT_REQUEST_ATTENTION/</tag> Specifies that the request attention bit in the extended status register is set. <tag><tt/CS_EVENT_CARD_INSERTION/</tag> Specifies that a card insertion event is in progress. An insertion event will be sent to the client when socket setup is complete. <tag><tt/CS_EVENT_3VCARD/</tag> Indicates that the card supports 3.3V operation. <tag><tt/CS_EVENT_XVCARD/</tag> Indicates that the card supports ``X.X''V operation. The actual voltage is currently undefined in the specification. </descrip> <tt/SocketState/ is currently unused, but in theory, it should latch changes in the state of the fields in <tt/CardState/. Return codes: <descrip> <tag><tt/CS_BAD_HANDLE/</tag> The client handle is invalid. </descrip> <!-- ================================================================= --> <sect2>ResetCard <p> <tscreen><verb> int CardServices(ResetCard, client_handle_t client); </verb></tscreen> <tt/ResetCard/ requests that a client's socket be reset. When this call is made, Card Services sends all clients a <tt/CS_EVENT_RESET_REQUEST/ event. If any client rejects the request, Card Services sends the initiating client a <tt/CS_EVENT_RESET_COMPLETE/ event with <tt/event_callback_args.info/ set to the return code of the client that rejected the request. If all clients agree to the request, Card Services sends a <tt/CS_EVENT_RESET_PHYSICAL/ event, then resets the socket. When the socket signals that it is ready, a <tt/CS_EVENT_CARD_RESET/ event is generated. Finally, a <tt/CS_EVENT_RESET_COMPLETE/ event is sent to the initiating client, with <tt/event_callback_args.info/ set to zero. Return codes: <descrip> <tag><tt/CS_BAD_HANDLE/</tag> The client handle is invalid. <tag><tt/CS_NO_CARD/</tag> The socket assigned to this client is currently vacant. <tag><tt/CS_IN_USE/</tag> This socket is currently being reset. </descrip> <!-- ================================================================= --> <sect2>SuspendCard <p> <tscreen><verb> int CardServices(SuspendCard, client_handle_t client); </verb></tscreen> Card Services sends all clients <tt/CS_EVENT_PM_SUSPEND/ events, then shuts down and turns off power to the socket. Return codes: <descrip> <tag><tt/CS_BAD_HANDLE/</tag> The client handle is invalid. <tag><tt/CS_NO_CARD/</tag> The socket assigned to this client is currently vacant. <tag><tt/CS_IN_USE/</tag> This socket is already suspended. </descrip> <!-- ================================================================= --> <sect2>ResumeCard <p> <tscreen><verb> int CardServices(ResumeCard, client_handle_t client); </verb></tscreen> After restoring power to the socket, Card Services will notify all clients with <tt/CS_EVENT_PM_RESUME/ events. Return codes: <descrip> <tag><tt/CS_BAD_HANDLE/</tag> The client handle is invalid. <tag><tt/CS_NO_CARD/</tag> The socket assigned to this client is currently vacant. <tag><tt/CS_IN_USE/</tag> This socket is not currently suspended. </descrip> <!-- ================================================================= --> <sect2>EjectCard <p> <tscreen><verb> int CardServices(EjectCard, client_handle_t client); </verb></tscreen> Card Services sends eject events to all clients, then shuts down and turns off power to the socket. All clients except for Driver Services will be unlinked from the socket. Return codes: <descrip> <tag><tt/CS_BAD_HANDLE/</tag> The client handle is invalid. <tag><tt/CS_NO_CARD/</tag> The socket assigned to this client is currently vacant. </descrip> <!-- ================================================================= --> <sect2>InsertCard <p> <tscreen><verb> int CardServices(InsertCard, client_handle_t client); </verb></tscreen> Card Services sends insertion events to all clients of this socket (normally, only Driver Services). Return codes: <descrip> <tag><tt/CS_BAD_HANDLE/</tag> The client handle is invalid. <tag><tt/CS_NO_CARD/</tag> The socket assigned to this client is currently vacant. <tag><tt/CS_IN_USE/</tag> The socket has already been configured. </descrip> <!-- ================================================================= --> <sect1>IO card configuration calls <p> The normal order of events is for a driver to reserve IO ports and an interrupt line with calls to <tt/RequestIO/ and <tt/RequestIRQ/, then to call <tt/RequestConfiguration/ to actually configure the socket. If any of these calls fails, a driver should be sure to release any resources it successfully reserved. Multifunction cards can have separate configurations for each card function. However, the configurations do need to be consistent with one another. While each card function has its own set of configuration registers, each socket has only a single interrupt line and can only map two contiguous ranges of IO ports. CardBus cards are configured somewhat differently. The <tt/RequestIO/ and <tt/RequestConfiguration/ calls have similar roles, however, Card Services takes responsibility for most of the configuration details, and the contents of the request structures are ignored. <!-- ================================================================= --> <sect2>RequestIO <p> <tscreen><verb> int CardServices(RequestIO, client_handle_t client, io_req_t *req); </verb></tscreen> The <tt/io_req_t/ data structure is given by: <tscreen><verb> typedef struct io_req_t { ioaddr_t BasePort1; ioaddr_t NumPorts1; u_int Attributes1; ioaddr_t BasePort2; ioaddr_t NumPorts2; u_int Attributes2; u_int IOAddrLines; } io_req_t; </verb></tscreen> <tt/RequestIO/ reserves IO port windows for a card. <tt/BasePort1/ specifies the base IO port address of the window to be reserved. If <tt/NumPorts2/ is non-zero, a second IO port window will also be reserved. <tt/IOAddrLines/ specifies the number of address lines that are actually decoded by the card. The IO port allocation algorithm assumes that any alias of the requested address(es) that preserves the lower <tt/IOAddrLines/ bits will be acceptable, and will update <tt/BasePort1/ and <tt/BasePort2/ to reflect the address range(s) actually assigned. Prior to release 3.1.4, the <tt/IOAddrLines/ field was ignored. The allocator always tried to assign the exact address range requested, unless the base address was zero; in that case, it would assign any available window aligned to the nearest power of two larger than the window size. The new allocator verifies that the <tt/IOAddrLines/ parameter agrees with the requested window parameters, and defaults to the pre-3.1.4 behavior if an inconsistency is found. With multifunction cards, this call will allocate IO ports for each card function in such a way that all a card's ports can be mapped by the two low-level IO port windows associated with each physical socket. For example, if the drivers for a hypothetical four-function card each attempt to allocate one IO window of 8 ports, Card Services will consolidate these into a single contiguous 32-port block. When this function is invoked by a CardBus client, the IO request structure is ignored. Instead, Card Services examines the card and allocates any necessary system resources: this includes IO and memory space, as well as an interrupt, if needed. One call will reserve all resources needed for all card functions, not just the function of the client making the call. This call does not actually configure a socket's IO windows: this is done by a subsequent call to <tt/RequestConfiguration/. The following flags can be specified in <tt/Attributes1/ and <tt/Attributes2/: <descrip> <tag><tt/IO_DATA_PATH_WIDTH/</tag> This field may either be <tt/IO_DATA_PATH_WIDTH_16/ for 16-bit access, or <tt/IO_DATA_PATH_WIDTH_8/ for 8-bit access, or <tt/IO_DATA_PATH_WIDTH_AUTO/ to dynamically size the bus based on the access size. </descrip> Return codes: <descrip> <tag><tt/CS_BAD_HANDLE/</tag> The client handle is invalid. <tag><tt/CS_NO_CARD/</tag> The socket assigned to this client is currently vacant. <tag><tt/CS_IN_USE/</tag> This socket's IO windows have already been reserved. <tag><tt/CS_CONFIGURATION_LOCKED/</tag> This socket's configuration has been locked by a call to <tt/RequestConfiguration/. <tag><tt/CS_BAD_ATTRIBUTE/</tag> An unsupported attribute flag was specified. <tag><tt/CS_UNSUPPORTED_FUNCTION/</tag> For a CardBus client, this is returned if Card Services was not configured with CardBus support. </descrip> <!-- ================================================================= --> <sect2>ReleaseIO <p> <tscreen><verb> int CardServices(ReleaseIO, client_handle_t client, io_req_t *req); </verb></tscreen> <tt/ReleaseIO/ un-reserves IO port windows allocated by a previous call to <tt/RequestIO/. The <tt/req/ parameter should be the same one passed to <tt/RequestIO/. If several card functions are sharing a larger IO port window, ports released by one function may not become available for other uses until all card functions have released their IO ports. For a CardBus client, this call releases all system resources allocated for this card. Return codes: <descrip> <tag><tt/CS_BAD_HANDLE/</tag> The client handle is invalid. <tag><tt/CS_CONFIGURATION_LOCKED/</tag> This socket's configuration has been locked by a call to <tt/RequestConfiguration/. The configuration should be released before calling ReleaseIO. <tag><tt/CS_BAD_ARGS/</tag> The parameters in <tt/req/ do not match the parameters passed to <tt/RequestIO/. </descrip> <!-- ================================================================= --> <sect2>RequestIRQ <p> <tscreen><verb> int CardServices(RequestIRQ, client_handle_t client, irq_req_t *req); </verb></tscreen> The <tt/irq_req_t/ structure is given by: <tscreen><verb> typedef struct irq_req_t { u_int Attributes; u_int AssignedIRQ; u_int IRQInfo1, IRQInfo2; void *(Handler)(int, struct pt_regs *); void *Instance } irq_req_t; </verb></tscreen> <tt/RequestIRQ/ reserves an interrupt line for use by a card. The <tt/IRQInfo1/ and <tt/IRQInfo2/ fields correspond to the interrupt description bytes in a <tt/CFTABLE_ENTRY/ tuple. If <tt/IRQ_INFO2_VALID/ is set in <tt/IRQInfo1/, then <tt/IRQInfo2/ is a bit-mapped mask of allowed interrupt values. Each bit corresponds to one interrupt line: bit 0 = irq 0, bit 1 = irq 1, etc. So, a mask of 0x1100 would mean that interrupts 12 and 8 could be used. If <tt/IRQ_INFO2_VALID/ is not set, <tt/IRQInfo1/ is just the desired interrupt number. If the call is successful, the reserved interrupt is returned in <tt/AssignedIRQ/. If the <tt/IRQ_HANDLER_PRESENT/ flag is set, then this call also specifies an interrupt handler to be installed when the interrupt is enabled. When <tt/RequestConfiguration/ is called, the handler given by <tt/Handler/ will be installed. For 2.0 and later kernels, the interrupt handler will be installed with the device ``instance'' given in <tt/Instance/. For pre-2.1.60 kernels, the kernel <tt/irq2dev_map/ table will also be updated. With multifunction cards, the interrupt will be allocated in shared mode, and the handler(s) have responsibility for determining which card function(s) require attention when an interrupt is received. If a client instead bypasses Card Services to install its own interrupt service routine, it should allocate the interrupt in shared mode if this client could be bound to a multifunction card. The following flags can be specified in <tt/Attributes/: <descrip> <tag><tt/IRQ_FORCED_PULSE/</tag> Specifies that the interrupt should be configured for pulsed mode, rather than the default level mode. <tag><tt/IRQ_TYPE_TIME/</tag> Specifies that this interrupt can be time-shared with other Card Services drivers. Only one driver should enable the interrupt at any time. <tag><tt/IRQ_FIRST_SHARED/</tag> In conjunction with <tt/IRQ_TYPE_TIME/, this should be set by the first driver requesting a shared interrupt. <tag><tt/IRQ_HANDLER_PRESENT/</tag> Indicates that the <tt/Handler/ field points to an interrupt service routine that should be installed. </descrip> Return codes: <descrip> <tag><tt/CS_BAD_HANDLE/</tag> The client handle is invalid. <tag><tt/CS_NO_CARD/</tag> The socket assigned to this client is currently vacant. <tag><tt/CS_IN_USE/</tag> An interrupt has already been reserved for this socket, or the requested interrupt is unavailable. <tag><tt/CS_CONFIGURATION_LOCKED/</tag> This card function's configuration has been locked by a call to <tt/RequestConfiguration/. <tag><tt/CS_BAD_ATTRIBUTE/</tag> An unsupported attribute flag was specified. </descrip> <!-- ================================================================= --> <sect2>ReleaseIRQ <p> <tscreen><verb> int CardServices(ReleaseIRQ, client_handle_t client, irq_req_t *req); </verb></tscreen> <tt/ReleaseIRQ/ un-reserves an interrupt assigned by an earlier call to <tt/RequestIRQ/. The <tt/req/ structure should be the same structure that was passed to <tt/RequestIRQ/. If a handler was specified in the <tt/RequestIRQ/ call, it will be unregistered at this time. Return codes: <descrip> <tag><tt/CS_BAD_HANDLE/</tag> The client handle is invalid. <tag><tt/CS_CONFIGURATION_LOCKED/</tag> This socket's configuration has been locked by a call to <tt/RequestConfiguration/. The configuration should be released before calling ReleaseIRQ. <tag><tt/CS_BAD_IRQ/</tag> The parameters in <tt/req/ do not match the parameters passed to <tt/RequestIRQ/. </descrip> <!-- ================================================================= --> <sect2>RequestConfiguration <p> <tscreen><verb> int CardServices(RequestConfiguration, client_handle_t client, config_req_t *req); </verb></tscreen> The <tt/config_req_t/ structure is given by: <tscreen><verb> typedef struct config_req_t { u_int Attributes; u_int Vcc, Vpp1, Vpp2; u_int IntType; u_int ConfigBase; u_char Status, Pin, Copy, ExtStatus; u_char ConfigIndex; u_int Present; } config_req_t; </verb></tscreen> <tt/RequestConfiguration/ is responsible for actually configuring a socket. This includes setting voltages, setting CIS configuration registers, setting up IO port windows, and setting up interrupts. <tt/IntType/ specifies the type of interface to use for this card. It may be <tt/INT_MEMORY/, <tt/INT_MEMORY_AND_IO/, or <tt/INT_CARDBUS/. Voltages are specified in units of 1/10 volt. Currently, <tt/Vpp1/ must equal <tt/Vpp2/. With multifunction cards, each card function is configured separately. Each function has its own set of CIS configuration registers. However, all functions must be configured with the same power and interface settings. When invoked by a CardBus client, most of the request structure is ignored, and all card functions will be configured based on data collected in a previous <tt/RequestIO/ call. This includes configuring the CardBus bridge, as well as initializing the Command, Base Address, and Interrupt Line registers in each card function's configuration space. <tt/IntType/ must be set to <tt/INT_CARDBUS/ in this case. The following flags can be specified in <tt/Attributes/. DMA and speaker control are not supported on all systems. <descrip> <tag><tt/CONF_ENABLE_IRQ/</tag> Enable the IO interrupt reserved by a previous call to <tt/RequestIRQ/. <tag><tt/CONF_ENABLE_DMA/</tag> Enable DMA accesses for this socket. <tag><tt/CONF_ENABLE_SPKR/</tag> Enable speaker output from this socket. </descrip> The <tt/Present/ parameter is a bit map specifying which CIS configuration registers are implemented by this card. <tt/ConfigBase/ gives the offset of the configuration registers in attribute memory. The following registers can be specified: <descrip> <tag><tt/PRESENT_OPTION/</tag> Specifies that the Configuration Option Register is present. The COR register will be set using the <tt/ConfigIndex/ parameter. <tag><tt/PRESENT_STATUS/</tag> Specifies that the Card Configuration and Status Register is present. The CCSR will be initialized with the <tt/Status/ parameter. <tag><tt/PRESENT_PIN_REPLACE/</tag> Specifies that the Pin Replacement Register is present.

All version 2 compliant cards should have a CIS, which describes the card and how it should be configured. The CIS is a linked list of ``tuples'' in the card's attribute memory space. Each tuple consists of an identification code, a length byte, and a series of data bytes. The layout of the data bytes for some tuple types is absurdly complicated, in an apparent effort to use every last bit. The <tt/ValidateCIS/ call checks to see if a card has a reasonable CIS. The <tt/GetFirstTuple/ and <tt/GetNextTuple/ calls are used to step through CIS tuple lists. <tt/GetTupleData/ extracts data bytes from a tuple. And <tt/ParseTuple/ unpacks most tuple types into more easily used forms. Finally, the <tt/ReplaceCIS/ call allows a client to provide Card Services with a substitute for the CIS found on the card. <!-- ================================================================= --> <sect2>GetFirstTuple, GetNextTuple <p> <tscreen><verb> #include "cistpl.h" int CardServices(GetFirstTuple, client_handle_t client, tuple_t *tuple); int CardServices(GetNextTuple, client_handle_t client, tuple_t *tuple); </verb></tscreen> The <tt/tuple_t/ data structure is given by: <tscreen><verb> typedef struct tuple_t { u_int Attributes; cis_data_t DesiredTuple; u_int Flags; cisdata_t TupleCode; u_int TupleLink; cisdata_t TupleOffset; cisdata_t TupleDataMax; cisdata_t TupleDataLen; cisdata_t *TupleData; } tuple_t; </verb></tscreen> <tt/GetFirstTuple/ searches a card's CIS for the first tuple code matching <tt/DesiredTuple/. The special code <tt/RETURN_FIRST_TUPLE/ will match the first tuple of any kind. If successful, <tt/TupleCode/ is set to the code of the first matching tuple found, and <tt/TupleLink/ is the address of this tuple in attribute memory. <tt/GetNextTuple/ is like <tt/GetFirstTuple/, except that given a <tt/tuple_t/ structure returned by a previous call to <tt/GetFirstTuple/ or <tt/GetNextTuple/, it will return the next tuple matching <tt/DesiredTuple/. These functions will automatically traverse any link tuples found in the CIS. For multifunction cards having a <tt/CISTPL_LONGLINK_MFC/ tuple, these functions will automatically follow just the CIS chain specific to a client driver's assigned function.

Its intended application is for cards with incomplete or inaccurate CIS information. If a correct CIS can be deduced from other information available for the card, this allows that information to be provided to clients in a clean fashion. The alternative is to pollute client source code with fixes targeted for each card with a CIS error. The replacement CIS remains in effect until the card is ejected, and all tuple-related services will use the replacement instead of the card's actual CIS. The <tt/Length/ field gives the number of bytes of CIS data in the <tt/Data/ array. The <tt/Data/ array can be considered to be just the even bytes of a card's attribute memory. It should contain all required features of a normal CIS, including an initial <tt/CISTPL_DEVICE/ tuple and a final <tt/CISTPL_END/ tuple. Long links (including <tt/CISTPL_LONGLINK_MFC/) may be used: all target addresses are interpreted in the replacement CIS space. In general, a replacement CIS should also contain the same basic identification tuples (<tt/CISTPL_MANFID/, <tt/CISTPL_VERS_1/) as the original card. This service was added in release 3.0.1.

This signal may be helpful for supporting interrupt sharing. <tag><tt/CCSR_POWER_DOWN/</tag> Setting this bit signals that the card should enter a power down state. <tag><tt/CCSR_AUDIO_ENA/</tag> Specifies that the card's audio output should be enabled. <tag><tt/CCSR_IOIS8/</tag> This is used by the host to indicate that it can only perform 8-bit IO operations and that 16-bit accesses will be carried out as two 8-bit accesses. <tag><tt/CCSR_SIGCHG_ENA/</tag> This indicates to the card that it should use the <tt/SIGCHG/ signal to indicate changes in the <tt/WP/, <tt/READY/, <tt/BVD1/, and <tt/BVD2/ signals. <tag><tt/CCSR_CHANGED/</tag> This bit signals to the host that one of the signals in the Pin Replacement Register has changed state. </descrip> <!-- ================================================================= --> <sect2>Pin Replacement Register <p> Signals in this register replace signals that are not available when a socket is operating in memory and IO mode. An IO card will normally assert the <tt/SIGCHG/ signal to indicate that one of these signals has changed state, then a driver can poll this register to find out specifically what happened. The following bit fields are defined: <descrip> <tag><tt/PRR_WP_STATUS/</tag> The current state of the write protect signal. <tag><tt/PRR_READY_STATUS/</tag> The current state of the ready signal. <tag><tt/PRR_BVD2_STATUS/</tag> The current state of the battery warn signal. <tag><tt/PRR_BVD1_STATUS/</tag> The current state of the battery dead signal. <tag><tt/PRR_WP_EVENT/</tag> Indicates that the write protect signal has changed state since the PRR register was last read. <tag><tt/PRR_READY_EVENT/</tag> Indicates that the ready signal has changed state since the PRR register was last read. <tag><tt/PRR_BVD2_EVENT/</tag> Indicates that the battery warn signal has changed state since the PRR register was last read. <tag><tt/PRR_BVD1_EVENT/</tag> Indicates that the battery dead signal has changed state since the PRR register was last read. </descrip> This register can also be written. In this case, the <tt/STATUS/ bits act as a mask; if a <tt/STATUS/ bit is set, the corresponding <tt/EVENT/ bit is updated by the write. <!-- ================================================================= --> <sect2>Socket and Copy Register <p> This register is used when several identical cards may be set up to share the same range of IO ports, to emulate an ISA bus card that would control several devices. For example, an ISA hard drive controller might control several drives, selectable by writing a drive number to an IO port. For several card drives to emulate this controller interface, each needs to ``know'' which drive it is, so that it can identify which IO operations are intended for it. The following bit fields are defined: <descrip> <tag><tt/SCR_SOCKET_NUM/</tag> This should indicate the socket number in which the card is located. <tag><tt/SCR_COPY_NUM/</tag> If several identical cards are installed in a system, this field should be set to a unique number identifying which of the identical cards this is. </descrip> <!-- ================================================================= --> <sect2>Extended Status Register <p> The following bit fields are defined: <descrip> <tag><tt/ESR_REQ_ATTN_ENA/</tag> When set, the <tt/CCSR_CHANGED/ bit will be set when the <tt/ESR_REQ_ATTN/ bit is set, possibly generating a status change interrupt. <tag><tt/ESR_REQ_ATTN/</tag> Signals a card event, such as an incoming call for a modem. </descrip> <!-- ================================================================= --> <sect2>IO Base and Size Registers <p> For multifunction cards, these registers are used to tell the card how the host IO windows have been configured for each card function. There are four IO Base registers, from <tt/CISREG_IOBASE_0/ to <tt/CISREG_IOBASE_3/, for the low-order through high-order bytes of an IO address up to 32 bits long. The <tt/CISREG_IOSIZE/ register is supposed to be written as the number of IO ports allocated, minus one. For MFC-compliant cards, Card Services will automatically set all of these registers when <tt/RequestConfiguration/ is called. <!-- ================================================================= --> <sect>Card Services Event Handling <p> Card Services events have several sources: <itemize> <item>Card status changes reported by the low-level socket drivers. <item>Artificial events generated by Card Services itself. <item>Advanced Power Management (APM) events. <item>Events generated by other Card Services clients. </itemize> Socket driver events may be either interrupt-driven or polled. <!-- ================================================================= --> <sect1>Event handler operations <p> When Card Services recognizes that an event has occurred, it checks the event mask of each client to determine which clients should receive an event notification. When a client registers with Card Services, it specifies an event handler callback function. This handler should have the form: <tscreen><verb> int (*event_handler)(event_t event, int priority, event_callback_args_t *args); </verb></tscreen> The <tt/priority/ parameter is set to either <tt/CS_EVENT_PRI_LOW/ for ordinary events, or <tt/CS_EVENT_PRI_HIGH/ for events that require an immediate response. The only high priority event is <tt/CS_EVENT_CARD_REMOVAL/. A client event handler should process this event as efficiently as possible so that Card Services can quickly notify other clients. The <tt/event_callback_args_t/ structure is given by: <tscreen><verb> typedef struct event_callback_args_t { client_handle_t client_handle; void *info; void *mtdrequest; void *buffer; void *misc; void *client_data; struct bus_operations *bus; } event_callback_args_t; </verb></tscreen> The <tt/client_handle/ member is set to the handle of the client whose socket was responsible for the event. This is useful if a driver is bound to several sockets. The <tt/info/ field is currently only used to return an exit status from a call to <tt/ResetCard/. The <tt/client_data/ field may be used by a driver to point to a local data structure associated with this device. The remaining fields are currently unused. For sockets that do not directly map cards into the host IO and memory space, the <tt/bus/ field is a pointer to a table of entry points for IO primitives for this socket. <sect1>Event descriptions <p> <descrip> <tag><tt/CS_EVENT_CARD_INSERTION/</tag> This event signals that a card has been inserted. If a driver is bound to an already occupied socket, Card Services will send the driver an artificial insertion event. <tag><tt/CS_EVENT_CARD_REMOVAL/</tag> This event signals that a card has been removed. This event should be handled with minimum delay so that Card Services can notify all clients as quickly as possible. <tag><tt/CS_EVENT_BATTERY_LOW/</tag> This event signals a change of state of the ``battery low'' signal. <tag><tt/CS_EVENT_BATTERY_DEAD/</tag> This event signals a change of state of the ``battery dead'' signal. <tag><tt/CS_EVENT_READY_CHANGE/</tag> This event signals a change of state of the ``ready'' signal. <tag><tt/CS_EVENT_WRITE_PROTECT/</tag> This event signals a change of state of the ``write protect'' signal. <tag><tt/CS_EVENT_REGISTRATION_COMPLETE/</tag> This event is sent to a driver after a successful call to <tt/RegisterClient/. <tag><tt/CS_EVENT_RESET_REQUEST/</tag> This event is sent when a client calls <tt/ResetCard/. An event handler can veto the reset operation by returning failure. <tag><tt/CS_EVENT_RESET_PHYSICAL/</tag> This is sent to all clients just before a reset signal is sent to a card. <tag><tt/CS_EVENT_CARD_RESET/</tag> This event signals that a reset operation is finished. The success or failure of the reset should be determined using <tt/GetStatus/. <tag><tt/CS_EVENT_RESET_COMPLETE/</tag> This event is sent to a client that has called <tt/ResetCard/ to signal the end of reset processing. <tag><tt/CS_EVENT_PM_SUSPEND/</tag> This event signals that Card Services has received either a user initiated or APM suspend request. An event handler can veto the suspend by returning failure. <tag><tt/CS_EVENT_PM_RESUME/</tag> This signals that the system is back on line after a suspend/resume cycle. <tag><tt/CS_EVENT_MTD_REQUEST/</tag> This is used to initiate an MTD memory operation. A description of the request is passed in the <tt/mtdrequest/ field of the callback arguments. A host buffer address may be passed in <tt/buffer/. <tag><tt/CS_EVENT_ERASE_COMPLETE/</tag> This is used to signal a client that a queued erase operation has completed. A pointer to the erase queue entry is returned in the <tt/info/ field of the callback arguments. </descrip> <!-- ================================================================= --> <sect1>Client driver event handling responsibilities <p> A client driver should respond to <tt/CS_EVENT_CARD_INSERTION/ and <tt/CS_EVENT_CARD_REMOVAL/ events by configuring and un-configuring the socket. Because card removal is a high priority event, the driver should immediately block IO to the socket, perhaps by setting a flag in a device structure, and schedule all other shutdown processing to happen later using a timer interrupt. When a <tt/CS_EVENT_PM_RESET_REQUEST/ event is received, a driver should block IO and release a locked socket configuration. When a <tt/CS_EVENT_CARD_RESET/ is received, a driver should restore the socket configuration and unblock IO. A <tt/CS_EVENT_PM_SUSPEND/ event should be handled somewhat like a <tt/CS_EVENT_PM_RESET_REQUEST/ event, in that IO should be blocked and the socket configuration should be released. When a <tt/CS_EVENT_PM_RESUME/ event is received, a driver can expect a card to be ready to be reconfigured, similar to when a <tt/CS_EVENT_CARD_RESET/ event is received. <!-- ================================================================= --> <sect>Memory Technology Drivers <p> A Memory Technology Driver (``MTD'') is used by Card Services to implement bulk memory services for a particular type of memory device. An MTD should register as a normal Card Services client with a call to <tt/RegisterClient/. When it receives a card insertion event, it should use <tt/GetFirstRegion/ and <tt/GetNextRegion/ to identify memory regions that it will administer. Then, it should use <tt/RegisterMTD/ to take control of these regions. MTD read, write, copy, and erase requests are packaged into <tt/CS_EVENT_MTD_REQUEST/ events by Card Services, and passed to the MTD's event handler for processing. <!-- ================================================================= --> <sect1>MTD request handling <p> An MTD receives requests from Card Services in the form of <tt/CS_EVENT_MTD_REQUEST/ events. Card Services passes a description of the request in the <tt/mtdrequest/ field of the event callback arguments. For requests that transfer data to or from the host, the host buffer address is passed in the <tt/buffer/ field. The <tt/mtd_request_t/ structure is given by: <tscreen><verb> typedef struct mtd_request_t { u_int SrcCardOffset; u_int DestCardOffset; u_int TransferLength; u_int Function; u_long MediaID; u_int Status; u_int Timeout; } mtd_request_t; </verb></tscreen> The <tt/Function/ field is bit mapped and describes the action to be performed by this request: <descrip> <tag><tt/MTD_REQ_ACTION/</tag> Either <tt/MTD_REQ_ERASE/, <tt/MTD_REQ_READ/, <tt/MTD_REQ_WRITE/, or <tt/MTD_REQ_COPY/. <tag><tt/MTD_REQ_NOERASE/</tag> For a write command that is sized and aligned on erase block boundaries, this specifies that no erase should be performed. <tag><tt/MTD_REQ_VERIFY/</tag> Specifies that writes should be verified. <tag><tt/MTD_REQ_READY/</tag> Indicates that this request is a retry of a previously request that was delayed until the card asserted <tt/READY/. <tag><tt/MTD_REQ_TIMEOUT/</tag> Indicates that this request is a retry of a previously request that was delayed by a timeout. <tag><tt/MTD_REQ_FIRST/</tag> Indicates that this request is the first in a series of requests. <tag><tt/MTD_REQ_LAST/</tag> Indicates that this request is the last of a series of requests. <tag><tt/MTD_REQ_KERNEL/</tag> Indicates that the host buffer for a read or write command is located in kernel memory, as opposed to user memory. </descrip> The <tt/MediaID/ field is the value specified in the <tt/RegisterMTD/ request for this region. The <tt/Status/ field is used by the MTD when it is unable to satisfy a request because a device is busy. MTD requests normally run without blocking. If an MTD request would block, it should return an error code of <tt/CS_BUSY/, and set <tt/Status/ to one of the have the following values: <descrip> <tag><tt/MTD_WAITREQ/</tag> Specifies that the request should be retried after another MTD request currently in progress completes. <tag><tt/MTD_WAITTIMER/</tag> Specifies that the request should be continued after the time specified in the <tt/timeout/ field. <tag><tt/MTD_WAITRDY/</tag> Specifies that the request should be continued when the card signals <tt/READY/, or when the time specified in <tt/Timeout/ elapses, whichever happens first. <tag><tt/MTD_WAITPOWER/</tag> Specifies that the request should be retried after something happens that affects power availability to the socket. </descrip> For <tt/MTD_WAITTIMER/ and <tt/MTD_WAITRDY/, the <tt/Timeout/ field will specify the timeout interval in milliseconds. <!-- ================================================================= --> <sect1>MTD helper functions <p> Since an MTD processes requests generated by Card Services, there may be some restrictions on the sorts of Card Services calls that can be safely made from the MTD event handler. The MTD helper functions provide a limited set of special services that may be needed by an MTD but would be tricky to implement using the normal Card Services calls. In the Linux implementation, most CS calls can be safely made from an MTD event handler, but the MTD helper interface is included for compatibility. <tscreen><verb> #include "cs_types.h" #include "cs.h" #include "bulkmem.h" int MTDHelperEntry(int subfunc, void *arg1, void *arg2); </verb></tscreen> <!-- ================================================================= --> <sect2>MTDRequestWindow, MTDReleaseWindow <p> <tscreen><verb> int MTDHelperEntry(MTDRequestWindow, client_handle_t *handle, win_req_t *mod); int MTDHelperEntry(MTDReleaseWindow, window_handle_t handle); </verb></tscreen> These services are identical to the standard Card Services <tt/RequestWindow/ and <tt/ReleaseWindow/ calls. <!-- ================================================================= --> <sect2>MTDModifyWindow <p> <tscreen><verb> int MTDHelperEntry(MTDModifyWindow, memory_handle_t handle, mtd_mod_req_t *mod); </verb></tscreen> The <tt/mtd_mod_req_t/ structure is give by: <tscreen><verb> typedef struct mtd_mod_req_t { u_int Attributes; u_int AccessSpeed; u_int CardOffset; } mtd_mod_req_t; </verb></tscreen> <tt/MTDModifyWindow/ is essentially equivalent to using the normal <tt/ModifyWindow/ and <tt/MapMemPage/ calls. The following flags can be specified in <tt/Attributes/: <descrip> <tag><tt/WIN_MEMORY_TYPE/</tag> Either <tt/WIN_MEMORY_TYPE_CM/ for common memory, or <tt/WIN_MEMORY_TYPE_AM/ for attribute memory. <tag><tt/WIN_USE_WAIT/</tag> Specifies that the controller should observe the card's MWAIT signal. </descrip> A window configured with <tt/MTDModifyWindow/ will always be enabled, and have a 16 bit data width. Return codes: <descrip> <tag><tt/CS_BAD_HANDLE/</tag> The memory handle is invalid. </descrip> <!-- ================================================================= --> <sect2>MTDSetVpp <p> <tscreen><verb> int MTDHelperEntry(MTDSetVpp, client_handle_t client, mtd_vpp_req_t *req); </verb></tscreen> <tscreen><verb> typedef struct mtd_vpp_req_t { u_char Vpp1, Vpp2; } mtd_vpp_req_t; </verb></tscreen> <tt/MTDSetVpp/ changes the programming voltage for a socket. <tt/Vpp1/ and <tt/Vpp2/ should be given in units of 1/10 volt. Currently, <tt/Vpp1/ should always equal <tt/Vpp2/. Return codes: <descrip> <tag><tt/CS_BAD_HANDLE/</tag> The client handle is invalid. <tag><tt/CS_BAD_VPP/</tag> The specified Vpp is not available, or Vpp1 does not equal Vpp2. </descrip> <!-- ================================================================= --> <sect2>MTDRDYMask <p> <tscreen><verb> int MTDHelperEntry(MTDRDYMask, client_handle_t client, mtd_rdy_req_t *req); </verb></tscreen> <tscreen><verb> typedef struct mtd_rdy_req_t { u_int Mask; } mtd_rdy_req_t; </verb></tscreen> <tt/MTDRDYMask/ selects whether or not <tt/CS_EVENT_READY_CHANGE/ events will be enabled. The client should already have indicated to Card Services that it should receive ready change events, via a call to either <tt/RegisterClient/ or <tt/SetEventMask/. Ready change events will be enabled if the <tt/CS_EVENT_READY_CHANGE/ bit is set in the <tt/Mask/ argument. Return codes: <descrip> <tag><tt/CS_BAD_HANDLE/</tag> The client handle is invalid. </descrip> <!-- ================================================================= --> <sect> Driver Services Interface <p> Driver Services provides a link between Card Services client drivers and user mode utilities like the <tt/cardmgr/ daemon. It is a sort of Card Services ``super-client''. Driver Services uses the <tt/BindDevice/ function to link other client drivers with their corresponding cards. Unlike other clients, Driver Services remains permanently bound to all sockets as cards are inserted and removed. <!-- ================================================================= --> <sect1> Interface to other client drivers <p> Driver Services keeps track of all client drivers that are installed and ready to attach to a socket. Client drivers need to have entry points for creating and deleting device ``instances'', where one device instance is everything needed to manage one physical card. Each client driver is identified by a unique 16-character tag that has the special type <tt/dev_info_t/, defined in <tt/cs_types.h/. Each device instance is described by a <tt/dev_link_t/ structure. <sect2> The dev_link_t structure <p> The <tt/dev_node_t/ and <tt/dev_link_t/ data structures are given by: <tscreen><verb> #include "ds.h" typedef struct dev_node_t { char dev_name[DEV_NAME_LEN]; u_char major, minor; struct dev_node_t *next; } typedef struct dev_link_t { dev_node_t *dev; u_int state, open; struct wait_queue *pending struct timer_list release client_handle_t handle; io_req_t io; irq_req_t irq; config_req_t conf; window_handle_t win; void *priv; struct dev_link_t *next; } dev_link_t; </verb></tscreen> The <tt/dev/ field of the <tt/dev_link_t/ structure points to a linked list of <tt/dev_node_t/ structures. In <tt/dev_node_t/, the <tt/dev_name/ field should be filled in by the driver with a device file name for accessing this device, if appropriate. For example, the <tt/serial_cs/ driver uses names like ``<tt/ttyS1/''. The <tt/major/ and <tt/minor/ fields give major and minor device numbers for accessing this device. Driver Services relays these fields to user mode programs via the <tt/DS_GET_DEVICE_INFO/ ioctl. In <tt/dev_link_t/, the <tt/state/ field should be used to keep track of the current device state. The following flags are defined: <descrip> <tag><tt/DEV_PRESENT/</tag> Indicates that the card is present. This bit should be set and cleared by the driver's event handler in response to card insertion and removal events. <tag><tt/DEV_CONFIG/</tag> Indicates that the card is configured for use. <tag><tt/DEV_CONFIG_PENDING/</tag> Indicates that configuration is in progress. <tag><tt/DEV_SUSPEND/</tag> Indicates that the card is suspended. <tag><tt/DEV_BUSY/</tag> Indicates that an IO operation is in progress. This bit may be used as an interlock to prevent access conflicts. <tag><tt/DEV_STALE_CONFIG/</tag> For some drivers, when a running card is ejected, the socket should not be unconfigured until any devices corresponding to this card are closed. This flag indicates that the socket should be unconfigured when the device is closed. <tag><tt/DEV_STALE_LINK/</tag> A driver instance should not be deleted until all its resources are released. This flag indicates that this driver instance should be freed as soon as the socket is unconfigured. </descrip> The <tt/open/ field is a usage count for this device. The device should only be freed when the open count is zero. The <tt/pending/ field can be used to manage a queue of processes waiting to use the device. The <tt/release/ field is used to schedule device shutdown processing when a card is ejected. A card removal event needs to be handled at high priority, so a driver's event handler will typically deal with an eject by resetting the <tt/DEV_PRESENT/ bit in the device state, then scheduling the shutdown processing to run at a later time. The <tt/handle/, <tt/io/, <tt/irq/, <tt/conf/, and <tt/win/ fields comprise all the normal data structures needed to configure an ordinary PC Card IO device The <tt/priv/ field can be used for any sort of private data structure needed to manage the device. The <tt/next/ field can be used to build linked lists of <tt/dev_link_t/ structures, for drivers that can handle multiple instances. <!-- ================================================================= --> <sect2> register_pccard_driver <p> <tscreen><verb> int register_pccard_driver(dev_info_t *dev_info, dev_link_t *(*attach)(void), void (*detach)(dev_link_t *)); </verb></tscreen> <tt/register_pccard_driver/ informs Driver Services that a client driver is present and ready to be bound to sockets. When Driver Services receives a <tt/DS_BIND_REQUEST/ ioctl that matches this driver's <tt/dev_info/ string, it will call the driver's <tt/attach()/ entry point. When it gets a <tt/DS_UNBIND_REQUEST/ ioctl, it will call <tt/detach()/. <!-- ================================================================= --> <sect2> unregister_pccard_driver <p> <tscreen><verb> int unregister_pccard_driver(dev_info_t *dev_info); </verb></tscreen> This informs Driver Services that it should no longer bind sockets to the specified client driver. <!-- ================================================================= --> <sect1> The CardBus client interface <p> The CardBus card interface is designed to be essentially an extension of the PCI bus. CardBus cards are typically designed using standard PCI chip sets. For simplicity in the client drivers, and maximum code sharing with regular kernel PCI drivers, we provide a sort of ``super client'' for configuring CardBus cards. This is implemented in the <tt/cb_enabler/ module. The <tt/cb_enabler/ module is somewhat similar in philosophy to the Driver Services layer for 16-bit cards. CardBus client drivers register with it, and provide a few entry points for handling device setup and shutdown, as well as power management handling. The <tt/cb_enabler/ module takes care of configuring the card and fielding Card Services events. So, all CardBus-specific code is in the enabler rather than the PCI driver. It is not mandatory for CardBus clients to use the <tt/cb_enabler/ interface. If a particular client requires more direct control over its CardBus configuration than is provided through the <tt/cb_enabler/ module, it can register directly with Card Services and perform Card Services calls directly, just like a 16-bit client. The <tt/cb_enabler/ module has two entry points: <tt/register_driver/ and <tt/unregister_driver/. At some point, these functions may migrate into the kernel: hence the generic names. <sect2> register_driver <p> <tscreen><verb> int register_driver(struct driver_operations *ops); </verb></tscreen> The <tt/driver_operations/ structure is given by: <tscreen><verb> typedef struct driver_operations { char *name dev_node_t *(*attach) (dev_locator_t *loc); void (*suspend) (dev_node_t *dev); void (*resume) (dev_node_t *dev); void (*detach) (dev_node_t *dev); } driver_operations; </verb></tscreen> The <tt/name/ field is used by <tt/cb_enabler/ when registering this client with Card Services. The rest of the structure describes a set of event handlers for this client. The function returns 0 on success, and -1 on failure. <sect2> unregister_driver <p> <tscreen><verb> void unregister_driver(struct driver_operations *ops); </verb></tscreen> The <tt/ops/ parameter should be the same structure pointer passed to a prior successful call to <tt/register_driver/. The client should take care to only call this function when no devices are currently being managed by this client. <sect2> The driver_operations entry points <p> The <tt/attach()/ entry point is used to configure a single device, given a ``device locator'' structure describing where to find it. The <tt/dev_locator_t/ structure is given by: <tscreen><verb> typedef struct dev_locator_t { enum { LOC_ISA, LOC_PCI } bus; union { struct { u_short io_base_1, io_base_2; u_long mem_base; u_char irq, dma; } isa; struct { u_char bus; u_char devfn; } pci; } b; } dev_locator_t; </verb></tscreen> The <tt/attach()/ function should return either <tt/NULL/ or a valid <tt/dev_node_t/ structure describing the new device. All the other entry points will use this pointer to identify the device to be manipulated. The <tt/cb_enabler/ module will invoke the <tt/attach()/ and <tt/detach()/ entry points in response to card insertion and removal events. The <tt/suspend()/ and <tt/resume()/ entry points will be called in response to power management events. There is no way for a driver to refuse a <tt/suspend()/ or <tt/detach()/ event. When a <tt/detach()/ event is received, the driver should block any subsequent IO to the specified device, but may preserve internal data structures until the kernel device is actually closed. <!-- ================================================================= --> <sect1> Interface to user mode utilities <p> Driver Services creates a pseudo-device for communicating with user mode PC Card utilities. The major number of the device is chosen dynamically, and PC Card utilities should read <tt>/proc/devices</tt> to determine it. Minor device numbers correspond to socket numbers, starting with 0. Only one process is allowed to open a socket for read/write access. Other processes can open the socket in read-only mode. A read-only connection to Driver Services can perform a subset of <tt/ioctl/ calls. A read/write connection can issue all <tt/ioctl/ calls, and can also receive Card Services event notifications. <!-- ================================================================= --> <sect2> Card Services event notifications <p> Driver Services implements <tt/read()/ and <tt/select()/ functions for event notification. Reading from a PC Card device returns an unsigned long value containing all the events received by Driver Services since the previous <tt/read()/. If no events have been received, the call will block until the next event. A <tt/select()/ call can be used to monitor several sockets for new events. The following events are monitored by Driver Services: <tt/CS_EVENT_CARD_INSERTION/, <tt/CS_EVENT_CARD_REMOVAL/, <tt/CS_EVENT_RESET_PHYSICAL/, <tt/CS_EVENT_CARD_RESET/, and <tt/CS_EVENT_RESET_COMPLETE/. <!-- ================================================================= --> <sect2> Ioctl descriptions <p> Most Driver Services <tt/ioctl/ operations directly map to Card Services functions.

Look for it in <tt>clients/dummy_cs.c</tt>. This is not just a piece of sample code: it is written to function as a sort of generic card enabler. If bound to an IO card, it will read the card's CIS and configure the card appropriately, assuming that the card's CIS is complete and accurate. <!-- ================================================================= --> <sect1>Module initialization and cleanup <p> All loadable modules must supply <tt/init_module()/ and <tt/cleanup_module()/ functions, which are invoked by the module support code when the module is installed and removed. A client driver's init function should register the driver with Driver Services, via the <tt/register_pccard_driver()/ call. The cleanup function should use <tt/unregister_pccard_driver()/ to unregister with Driver Services. Depending on the driver, the cleanup function may also need to free any device structures that still exist at shutdown time. <sect1>The *_attach() and *_detach() functions <p> The <tt/*_attach()/ entry point is responsible for creating an ``instance'' of the driver, setting up any data structures needed to manage one card. The <tt/*_attach()/ function should allocate and initialize a <tt/dev_link_t/ structure, and call <tt/RegisterClient/ to establish a link with Card Services. It returns a pointer to the new <tt/dev_link_t/ structure, or <tt/NULL/ if the new instance could not be created. The <tt/*_detach()/ entry point deletes a driver instance created by a previous call to <tt/*_attach/. It also breaks the link with Card Services, using <tt/DeregisterClient/. The <tt/*_attach()/ entry point is called by Driver Services when a card has been successfully identified and mapped to a matching driver by a <tt/DS_BIND_REQUEST/ ioctl(). The <tt/*_detach()/ entry point is called in response to a <tt/DS_UNBIND_REQUEST/ ioctl() call. <sect1>The *_config() and *_release() functions <p> The <tt/*_config()/ function is called to prepare a card for IO. Most drivers read some configuration details from the card itsef, but most have at least some built-in knowledge of how the device should be set up. For example, the serial card driver reads a card's <tt/CFTABLE_ENTRY/ tuples to determine appropriate IO port base addresses and corresponding configuration indices, but the driver ignores the interrupt information in the CIS. The <tt/*_config/ function will parse relevant parts of a card's CIS, then make calls to <tt/RequestIO/, <tt/RequestIRQ/, and/or <tt/RequestWindow/, then call <tt/RequestConfiguration/. When a card is successfully configured, the <tt/*_config()/ routine should fill in the <tt/dev_name/, <tt/major/, and <tt/minor/ fields in the <tt/dev_link_t/ structure. These fields will be returned to user programs by Driver Services in response to a <tt/DS_GET_DEVICE_INFO/ ioctl(). The <tt/*_release()/ function should release any resource allocated by a previous call to <tt/*_config()/, and blank out the device's <tt/dev_name/ field. The <tt/*_config()/ and <tt/*_release/ functions are normally called in response to card status change events or from timer interrupts. Thus, they cannot sleep, and should not call other kernel functions that might block. <sect1>The client event handler <p> The <tt/*_event()/ entry point is called from Card Services to notify a driver of card status change events. <sect1>Locking and synchronization issues <p> A configured socket should only be released when all associated devices are closed. Releasing a socket allows its system resources to be allocated for use by another device. If the released resources are reallocated while IO to the original device is still in progress, the original driver may interfere with use of the new device. A driver instance should only be freed after its corresponding socket configuration has been released. Card Services requires that a client explicitly release any allocated resources before a call to <tt/DeregisterClient/ will succeed. All loadable modules have a ``use count'' that is used by the system to determine when it is safe to unload a module. The convention in client drivers is to increment the use count when a device is opened, and to decrement the count when a device is closed. So, a driver can be unloaded whenever all associated devices are closed. in particular, a driver can be unloaded even if it is still bound to a socket, and the module cleanup code needs to be able to appropriately free any such resources that are still allocated. This should always be safe, because if the driver has a use count of zero, all devices are closed, which means all active sockets can be released, and all device instances can be detached. If a driver's <tt/*_release()/ function is called while a device is still open, it should set the <tt/DEV_STALE_CONFIG/ flag in the device state, to signal that the device should be released when the driver's <tt/close()/ function is called. If <tt/*_detach()/ is called for a configured device, the <tt/DEV_STALE_LINK/ flag should be set to signal that the instance should be detached when the <tt/*_release()/ function is called. <sect1>Using existing Linux drivers to access PC Card devices <p> Many of the current client drivers use existing Linux driver code to perform device IO operations. The Card Services client module handles card configuration and responds to card status change events, but delegates device IO to a compatible driver for a conventional ISA bus card. In some cases, a conventional driver can be used without modification. However, to fully support PC Card features like hot swapping and power management, there needs to be some communication between the PC Card client code and the device IO code. Most Linux drivers expect to probe for devices at boot time, and are not designed to handle adding and removing devices. One side-effect of the move towards driver modularization is that it is usually easier to adapt a modularized driver to handle removable devices. It is important that a device driver be able to recover from having a device disappear at an inappropriate time. At best, the driver should check for device presence before attempting any IO operation or before handling an IO interrupt. Loops that check device status should have timeouts so they will eventually exit if a device never responds. The <tt/dummy_cs/ driver may be useful for loading legacy drivers for compatible PC Card devices. After binding <tt/dummy_cs/ to a card, the legacy driver module may be able to detect and communicate with the device as if it were not a PC Card. This arrangement will generally not support clean hot swapping or power management functions, however it may be useful as a basis for later developing a more full-featured client driver. <!-- ================================================================= --> <sect>The Socket Driver Layer <p> In the Linux PCMCIA model, the ``Socket Services'' layer is a private API intended only for the use of Card Services. The API is based loosely on the PCMCIA Socket Services specification, but is oriented towards support for the common x86 laptop host controller types. <sect1>Card Services entry points for socket drivers <p> Card Services provides special entry points for registering and unregistering socket drivers: <tscreen><verb> typedef int (*ss_entry_t)(u_int sock, u_int cmd, void *arg); extern int register_ss_entry(int nsock, ss_entry_t entry); extern void unregister_ss_entry(ss_entry_t entry); </verb></tscreen> The socket driver invokes <tt/register_ss_entry/ with <tt/nsock/ indicating how many sockets are owned by this driver, and <tt/entry/ pointing to the function that will provide socket services for these sockets. The <tt/unregister_ss_entry/ routine can be safely invoked whenever Card Services does not have any callback functions registered for sockets owned by this driver. <sect1>Services provided by the socket driver <p> Socket Services calls have the following form: <tscreen><verb> #include "pcmcia/ss.h" int (*ss_entry)(u_int sock, int service, void *arg); </verb></tscreen> Non-zero return codes indicate that a request failed. <!-- ================================================================= --> <sect2>SS_InquireSocket <p> <tscreen><verb> int (*ss_entry)(u_int sock, SS_InquireSocket, socket_cap_t *cap); </verb></tscreen> The <tt/socket_cap_t/ data structure is given by: <tscreen><verb> typedef struct socket_cap_t { u_int features; u_int irq_mask; u_int map_size; u_char pci_irq; u_char cardbus; struct bus_operations *bus; } socket_cap_t; </verb></tscreen> The <tt/SS_InquireSocket/ service is used to retrieve socket capabilities. The <tt/irq_mask/ field is a bit mask indicating which ISA interrupts can be configured for IO cards. The <tt/map_size/ field gives the address granularity of memory windows. The <tt/pci_irq/ field, if not zero, is the PCI interrupt number assigned to this socket. It is independent of <tt/irq_mask/, and can actually be used in any situation where exactly one interrupt is associated with a specific socket. For CardBus bridges, the <tt/cardbus/ field should be non-zero, an
