V4L2用户空间和kernel层driver的交互过程

V4L2用户空间和kernel层driver的交互过程

​
这篇文章详细分析了V4L2用户空间和kernel层driver的交互过程，目的只有一个：
更清晰的理解V4L2视频驱动程序的系统结构，驱动编程方法，为以后开发视频驱动打好基础

既然从用户层出发探究驱动层，这里先贴出应用层code：

上面code中我已经标注出程序顺序指向的步骤1--14步，下面将一一说明应用从做这14步时驱动层是怎样响应，变化过程， 驱动加载初始化部分上一篇文章已经说过了
正式开始取经之路哇。。。。 。。。

STEP 1：
fd = open (dev_name, O_RDWR| O_NONBLOCK, 0);
打开字符设备，这个字符设备是video_device_register时创建的，code在v4l2_dev.c中，具体：

static int v4l2_open(struct inode *inode, struct file *filp)
{
    struct video_device *vdev;
    int ret = 0;

    /* Check if the video device is available */
    mutex_lock(&videodev_lock);
    vdev = video_devdata(filp);
    /* return ENODEV if the video device has already been removed. */
    if (vdev == NULL || !video_is_registered(vdev)) {
        mutex_unlock(&videodev_lock);
        return -ENODEV;
    }
    /* and increase the device refcount */
    video_get(vdev);
    mutex_unlock(&videodev_lock);

    /*
    * Here using the API you get the method you get the open() method write
    * The other methods in fops use the same method to use you own code
    */
    if (vdev->fops->open) {
        if (vdev->lock && mutex_lock_interruptible(vdev->lock)) {
            ret = -ERESTARTSYS;
            goto err;
        }
        if (video_is_registered(vdev))
            ret = vdev->fops->open(filp);
        else
            ret = -ENODEV;
        if (vdev->lock)
            mutex_unlock(vdev->lock);
    }

err:
    /* decrease the refcount in case of an error */
    if (ret)
        video_put(vdev);
    return ret;
}

重点在标注部分，通过这个V4L2的API调用我们自己驱动程序中定义的open方法，我们自己的open方法所属的fops是在vivi.c驱动程序的vivi_create_instance方法中 video_device_register之前关联进来的

int v4l2_fh_open(struct file *filp)
{
    struct video_device *vdev = video_devdata(filp);
    struct v4l2_fh *fh = kzalloc(sizeof(*fh), GFP_KERNEL);

    /*
    * IN the open method, do only one job
    * set v4l2_fh into filp->private_data for later use, and initial v4l2_fh
    */
    filp->private_data = fh;
    if (fh == NULL)
        return -ENOMEM;
    v4l2_fh_init(fh, vdev);
    v4l2_fh_add(fh);
    return 0;
}
EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL(v4l2_fh_open);

这个open方法只是初始化了一个v4l2_fh，并关联到filp->private中，方便以后使用
这里设置V4L2_FL_USES_V4L2_FH这个标志位，设置优先级为UNSET，如果我们的自己驱动程序实现了，支持
VIDIOC_SUBSCRIBE_EVENT,那么v4l2_event_init，在events初始化中初始化链表，并设置sequence为-1，如果不支持，则设置fh->events为NULL
最后add list

STEP 2：
if (-1 == xioctl (fd, VIDIOC_QUERYCAP, &cap))
这么调用完成下面过程，不行的从驱动层获取cap。直到成功拿到我们想要的数据

static int xioctl (int fd,int request,void * arg)
{
    int r;
    /* Here use this method to make sure cmd success*/
    do r = ioctl (fd, request, arg);
    while (-1 == r && EINTR == errno);
    return r;
}

也就是调用驱动层的ioctl方法，从v4l2 api中的ictol 调用我们自己定义的ioctl ，这中间的过程不在多做说明，我们自己的驱动的控制过程由v4l2_ioctl.c这个文件中的方法实现，一个很庞大的switch
值得一提的是，慢慢后面你会明白的，这里 v4l2_ioctl.c这个文件中的方法实现其实只是会中转站，它接着就回调了我们自己驱动程序中定义的控制接口，后面再说吧

long video_ioctl2(struct file *file,
     unsigned int cmd, unsigned long arg)
{
    return video_usercopy(file, cmd, arg, __video_do_ioctl);
}

这里这个 __video_do_ioctl 方法其实完全做了我们所有的控制过程，又为什么又要经过video_usercopy这个方法呢，不妨看一看这个方法

long
video_usercopy(struct file *file, unsigned int cmd, unsigned long arg,
     v4l2_kioctl func)
{
    char    sbuf[128];
    void *mbuf = NULL;
    void    *parg = (void *)arg;
    long    err = -EINVAL;
    bool    has_array_args;
    size_t array_size = 0;
    void __user *user_ptr = NULL;
    void    **kernel_ptr = NULL;

    /* Copy arguments into temp kernel buffer */
    if (_IOC_DIR(cmd) != _IOC_NONE) {
........这里检查128个字节的大小是否够存放用户端发送来的数据，不够则需要重新申请一个新的内存用来存放，指向parg这个地址
        if (_IOC_SIZE(cmd) <= sizeof(sbuf)) {
            parg = sbuf;
        } else {
            /* too big to allocate from stack */
            mbuf = kmalloc(_IOC_SIZE(cmd), GFP_KERNEL);
            if (NULL == mbuf)
                return -ENOMEM;
            parg = mbuf;
        }

        err = -EFAULT;
        if (_IOC_DIR(cmd) & _IOC_WRITE) {
            unsigned long n = cmd_input_size(cmd);

            if (copy_from_user(parg, (void __user *)arg, n))
                goto out;

            /* zero out anything we don't copy from userspace */
            if (n < _IOC_SIZE(cmd))
                memset((u8 *)parg + n, 0, _IOC_SIZE(cmd) - n);
        } else {
            /* read-only ioctl */
            memset(parg, 0, _IOC_SIZE(cmd));
        }
    }
....check
    err = check_array_args(cmd, parg, &array_size, &user_ptr, &kernel_ptr);
    if (err < 0)

自我感觉这个方法还是有很多精妙之处的，主要的控制过程是在我标注的地方调用完成的，这个调用之前做check动作，检查用户端发来的命令是否合法，
最重要的是把用户端的数据copy到kernel 端；而这个调用之后，则是我们处理完我们的动作之后，我们在这里吧用户端请求的数据从kernel 端copy到用户端
这样做的好处是显而易见的，任务明确，控制只做控制，用户空间和kernel空间数据的copy在所有控制之前，控制之后进行
以上动作做完之后，进入庞大的控制中枢，这来开始至贴出具体到某一个控制的代码，否则code过大，不易分析：

case VIDIOC_QUERYCAP://查询视频设备的功能
    {
        struct v4l2_capability *cap = (struct v4l2_capability *)arg;

        if (!ops->vidioc_querycap)
            break;

        ret = ops->vidioc_querycap(file, fh, cap);
        if (!ret)/* i don't think here need to check */
            dbgarg(cmd, "driver=%s, card=%s, bus=%s, "
                    "version=0x%08x, "
                    "capabilities=0x%08x\n",
                    cap->driver, cap->card, cap->bus_info,
                    cap->version,
                    cap->capabilities);
        break;
    }

这来调用了我们自己驱动中填充的v4l2_ioctl_ops结构体，从这里开始，我上面说到的话得到了验证，这就是linux 中API 的强大之处
作为中间层的这个控制中枢又回调驱动自己定义编写的控制

/* ------------------------------------------------------------------
    IOCTL vidioc handling
   ------------------------------------------------------------------*/
static int vidioc_querycap(struct file *file, void *priv,
                    struct v4l2_capability *cap)
{
    struct vivi_dev *dev = video_drvdata(file);

    strcpy(cap->driver, "vivi");
    strcpy(cap->card, "vivi");
    strlcpy(cap->bus_info, dev->v4l2_dev.name, sizeof(cap->bus_info));
    cap->version = VIVI_VERSION;
    cap->capabilities = V4L2_CAP_VIDEO_CAPTURE | V4L2_CAP_STREAMING | \
             V4L2_CAP_READWRITE;
    return 0;
}

这来做的事情很简单，只是将配置信息保存到cap这个变量中，之后上传给用户空间

STEP 3：
/* 3. VIDIOC_CROPCAP查询驱动的修剪能力*/
/* 这里在vivi 驱动中我们没有实现此方法，即不支持此操作*/
if (0 == xioctl (fd, VIDIOC_CROPCAP, &cropcap))
这个判断在中间层控制中枢中进行的，check到我们自己的驱动中没有这个控制功能的支持
所以这里的 STEP 4同样不会进行

        }
        break;
    }

以后根据不同的type 决定了我们自己驱动程序中不同的控制实现，这个type是根据用户空间的设置而定的，还包括其他几个参数，如下：

fmt.type = V4L2_BUF_TYPE_VIDEO_CAPTURE;
fmt.fmt.pix.width = 640;
fmt.fmt.pix.height = 480;
fmt.fmt.pix.pixelformat = V4L2_PIX_FMT_YUYV;
fmt.fmt.pix.field = V4L2_FIELD_INTERLACED;

这里根据设定的type，所以驱动程序的处理过程如下：

static int vidioc_s_fmt_vid_cap(struct file *file, void *priv,
                    struct v4l2_format *f)
{
    struct vivi_dev *dev = video_drvdata(file);
    struct vb2_queue *q = &dev->vb_vidq;
....在下面这个函数中，做了一些试探性的动作，如果试探失败则下面不会赋值，试探通过则后续正常设置即可，在这个试探函数中同时做了一些设置动作
    int ret = vidioc_try_fmt_vid_cap(file, priv, f);
    if (ret < 0)
        return ret;

    if (vb2_is_streaming(q)) {
        dprintk(dev, 1, "%s device busy\n", __func__);
        return -EBUSY;
    }
....按用户空间需求设置
    dev->fmt = get_format(f);
    dev->width = f->fmt.pix.width;
    dev->height = f->fmt.pix.height;
    dev->field = f->fmt.pix.field;

    return 0;
}

 * This function implements poll file operation handler for a driver.
 * For CAPTURE queues, if a buffer is ready to be dequeued, the userspace will be informed that the file descriptor of a video device is available for reading.
 * For OUTPUT queues, if a buffer is ready to be dequeued, the file descriptor will be reported as available for writing.
 * The return values from this function are intended to be directly returned from poll handler in driver.

到此为止，整个过程算是基本完结了，不过其中videobuf2_core.c 在我看来自己必须专门钻研一下了
videobuf2_core .c 是视频数据传输的核心
也可以说是视频驱动的重中之重
待续。。。。。。
