《linux内核源码分析----dma.c》

linux0.11、linux1.0、linux1.3、linux2.0、linux2.6
分别是1万多行、16万行、32万行、70万行、480万行c代码。

1.0带vfs和proc文件系统,内核的基本模型是没有多少变化。因此用于讲解kernel源码比较适合。

/kernel/dma.c里面只做了一件事情:资源管理。
早期的cpu中dma管理器硬件资源不是那么强大,默认只有8个通道。所以是用数组来标识资源。比较新的内核源码是用链表来做资源管理。

#define MAX_DMA_CHANNELS 8
static volatile unsigned int dma_chan_busy[MAX_DMA_CHANNELS]; 每个数组元素对应一路dma,为0标识空闲,不为0标识资源已经被占用

mutex_atomic_swap(volatile unsigned int * p, unsigned int newval)函数里面内嵌汇编码,利用xchgl汇编指令(对应cpu的一个特殊电路,保证原子操作)原子的设置变量的值。如果p指向的值等于newval,则返回0设置不成功,如果*p不等于newval,则返回1。*p的值总是等于newval。

以下是dma.c的源码:

/* $Id: dma.c,v 1.5 1992/11/18 02:49:05 root Exp root $
 * linux/kernel/dma.c: A DMA channel allocator. Inspired by linux/kernel/irq.c.
 * Written by Hennus Bergman, 1992.

/* A note on resource allocation:
 *
 * All drivers needing DMA channels, should allocate and release them
 * through the public routines `request_dma()' and `free_dma()'.
 *
 * In order to avoid problems, all processes should allocate resources in
 * the same sequence and release them in the reverse order.
 * 
 * So, when allocating DMAs and IRQs, first allocate the IRQ, then the DMA.
 * When releasing them, first release the DMA, then release the IRQ.
 * If you don't, you may cause allocation requests to fail unnecessarily.
 * This doesn't really matter now, but it will once we get real semaphores
 * in the kernel.
