The driver has to * handle all the rest... * * The initial API also defines a specific handler in struct net_device * to handle wireless statistics. * * The initial APIs served us well and has proven a reasonably good design. * However, there is a few shortcommings : * o No events, everything is a request to the driver. * o Large ioctl function in driver with gigantic switch statement * (i.e. spaghetti code). * o Driver has to mess up with copy_to/from_user, and in many cases * does it unproperly. Common mistakes are : * * buffer overflows (no checks or off by one checks) * * call copy_to/from_user with irq disabled * o The user space interface is tied to ioctl because of the use * copy_to/from_user. * * New driver API (2002 -> onward) : * ------------------------------- * The new driver API is just a bunch of standard functions (handlers), * each handling a specific Wireless Extension. The driver just export * the list of handler it supports, and those will be called apropriately. * * I tried to keep the main advantage of the previous API (simplicity, * efficiency and light weight), and also I provide a good dose of backward * compatibility (most structures are the same, driver can use both API * simultaneously, ...). * Hopefully, I've also addressed the shortcomming of the initial API. * * The advantage of the new API are : * o Handling of Extensions in driver broken in small contained functions * o Tighter checks of ioctl before calling the driver * o Flexible commit strategy (at least, the start of it) * o Backward compatibility (can be mixed with old API) * o Driver doesn't have to worry about memory and user-space issues * The last point is important for the following reasons : * o You are now able to call the new driver API from any API you * want (including from within other parts of the kernel). * o Common mistakes are avoided (buffer overflow, user space copy * with irq disabled and so on). * * The Drawback of the new API are : * o bloat (especially kernel) * o need to migrate existing drivers to new API * My initial testing shows that the new API adds around 3kB to the kernel * and save between 0 and 5kB from a typical driver. * Also, as all structures and data types are unchanged, the migration is * quite straightforward (but tedious). * * --- * * The new driver API is defined below in this file. User space should * not be aware of what's happening down there... * * A new kernel wrapper is in charge of validating the IOCTLs and calling * the appropriate driver handler. This is implemented in : * # net/core/wireless.c * * The driver export the list of handlers in : * # include/linux/netdevice.h (one place) * * The new driver API is available for WIRELESS_EXT >= 13. * Good luck with migration to the new API ;-) */ /* ---------------------- THE IMPLEMENTATION ---------------------- */ /* * Some of the choice I've made are pretty controversials. Defining an * API is very much weighting compromises. This goes into some of the * details and the thinking behind the implementation. * * Implementation goals : * -------------------- * The implementation goals were as follow : * o Obvious : you should not need a PhD to understand what's happening, * the benefit is easier maintenance. * o Flexible : it should accommodate a wide variety of driver * implementations and be as flexible as the old API. * o Lean : it should be efficient memory wise to minimise the impact * on kernel footprint. * o Transparent to user space : the large number of user space * applications that use Wireless Extensions should not need * any modifications. * * Array of functions versus Struct of functions * --------------------------------------------- * 1) Having an array of functions allow the kernel code to access the * handler in a single lookup, which is much more efficient (think hash * table here). * 2) The only drawback is that driver writer may put their handler in * the wrong slot. This is trivial to test (I set the frequency, the * bitrate changes). Once the handler is in the proper slot, it will be * there forever, because the array is only extended at the end. * 3) Backward/forward compatibility : adding new handler just require * extending the array, so you can put newer driver in older kernel * without having to patch the kernel code (and vice versa). * * All handler are of the same generic type * ---------------------------------------- * That's a feature !!! * 1) Having a generic handler allow to have generic code, which is more * efficient. If each of the handler was individually typed I would need * to add a big switch in the kernel (== more bloat). This solution is * more scalable, adding new Wireless Extensions doesn't add new code. * 2) You can use the same handler in different slots of the array. For * hardware, it may be more efficient or logical to handle multiple * Wireless Extensions with a single function, and the API allow you to * do that. (An example would be a single record on the card to control * both bitrate and frequency, the handler would read the old record, * modify it according to info->cmd and rewrite it). * * Functions prototype uses union iwreq_data * ----------------------------------------- * Some would have preferred functions defined this way : * static int mydriver_ioctl_setrate(struct net_device *dev, * long rate, int auto) * 1) The kernel code doesn't "validate" the content of iwreq_data, and * can't do it (different hardware may have different notion of what a * valid frequency is), so we don't pretend that we do it. * 2) The above form is not extendable. If I want to add a flag (for * example to distinguish setting max rate and basic rate), I would * break the prototype. Using iwreq_data is more flexible. * 3) Also, the above form is not generic (see above). * 4) I don't expect driver developper using the wrong field of the * union (Doh !), so static typechecking doesn't add much value. * 5) Lastly, you can skip the union by doing : * static int mydriver_ioctl_setrate(struct net_device *dev, * struct iw_request_info *info, * struct iw_param *rrq, * char *extra) * And then adding the handler in the array like this : * (iw_handler) mydriver_ioctl_setrate, // SIOCSIWRATE * * Using functions and not a registry * ---------------------------------- * Another implementation option would have been for every instance to * define a registry (a struct containing all the Wireless Extensions) * and only have a function to commit the registry to the hardware. * 1) This approach can be emulated by the current code, but not * vice versa. * 2) Some drivers don't keep any configuration in the driver, for them * adding such a registry would be a significant bloat. * 3) The code to translate from Wireless Extension to native format is * needed anyway, so it would not reduce significantely the amount of code. * 4) The current approach only selectively translate Wireless Extensions * to native format and only selectively set, whereas the registry approach * would require to translate all WE and set all parameters for any single * change. * 5) For many Wireless Extensions, the GET operation return the current * dynamic value, not the value that was set. * * This header is * --------------------------------- * 1) This header is kernel space only and should not be exported to * user space. Headers in "include/linux/" are exported, headers in * "include/net/" are not. * * Mixed 32/64 bit issues * ---------------------- * The Wireless Extensions are designed to be 64 bit clean, by using only * datatypes with explicit storage size. * There are some issues related to kernel and user space using different * memory model, and in particular 64bit kernel with 32bit user space. * The problem is related to struct iw_point, that contains a pointer * that *may* need to be translated. * This is quite messy. The new API doesn't solve this problem (it can't), * but is a step in the right direction : * 1) Meta data about each ioctl is easily available, so we know what type * of translation is needed. * 2) The move of data between kernel and user space is only done in a single * place in the kernel, so adding specific hooks in there is possible. * 3) In the long term, it allows to move away from using ioctl as the * user space API. * * So many comments and so few code * -------------------------------- * That's a feature. Comments won't bloat the resulting kernel binary. */ /***************************** INCLUDES *****************************/ #include /* IOCTL user space API */ #include /***************************** VERSION *****************************/ /* * This constant is used to know which version of the driver API is * available.
