Linux kernel驱动相关抽象概念及其实现 之“linux设备模型kobject,kset,ktype”

kobject,kset,ktype三个很重要的概念贯穿Linux内核驱动架构,特转载一篇博文:

(转载自http://blog.csdn.net/gdt_a20/article/details/6424597

一、sysfs文件系统下的每个目录对应于一个kobj,kset是kobj的封装,内嵌了一个kobj,其代表kset自身,ktype代表属性操作集,但由于通用性,因此把ktype单独剥离出来,kobj,kset,ktype成为了各个驱动模型最底层的关联元素,并由此形成了sys下的各种拓扑结构。

二、关于kobject

      首先看一下kobject的原型

struct kobject {  
    const char      *name;         //名字  
    struct list_head    entry;         //连接到kset建立层次结构  
    struct kobject      *parent;       //指向父节点,面向对象的层次架构  
    struct kset     *kset;          
    struct kobj_type    *ktype;        //属性文件  
    struct sysfs_dirent *sd;  
    struct kref     kref;          //引用计数  
    unsigned int state_initialized:1;      //初始化状态...  
    unsigned int state_in_sysfs:1;  
    unsigned int state_add_uevent_sent:1;  
    unsigned int state_remove_uevent_sent:1;  
    unsigned int uevent_suppress:1;  
};  

  

分析一下kobject的初始化过程

   初始化函数为

---int kobject_init_and_add(struct kobject *kobj, struct kobj_type *ktype,  //参数为kobject和属性结构体  
             struct kobject *parent, const char *fmt, ...)  
{  
    va_list args;  
    int retval;  
    kobject_init(kobj, ktype);     
    va_start(args, fmt);  
    retval = kobject_add_varg(kobj, parent, fmt, args);  
    va_end(args);  
    return retval;  
}  
---void kobject_init(struct kobject *kobj, struct kobj_type *ktype)  
{  
    char *err_str;  
    if (!kobj) {                        //kobj为NULL错误退出  
        err_str = "invalid kobject pointer!";  
        goto error;  
    }  
    if (!ktype) {                       //ktype为NULL错误退出  
        err_str = "must have a ktype to be initialized properly!/n";  
        goto error;  
    }  
    if (kobj->state_initialized) {   //如果初始化状态为1报错  
        /* do not error out as sometimes we can recover */  
        printk(KERN_ERR "kobject (%p): tried to init an initialized "  
               "object, something is seriously wrong./n", kobj);  
        dump_stack();  
    }  
    kobject_init_internal(kobj);       //初始化kobj   
    kobj->ktype = ktype;            //关联obj和ktype  
    return;  
error:  
    printk(KERN_ERR "kobject (%p): %s/n", kobj, err_str);  
    dump_stack();  
}  
-------static void kobject_init_internal(struct kobject *kobj)  
{  
    if (!kobj)  
        return;  
    kref_init(&kobj->kref);        //计数变成1  
    INIT_LIST_HEAD(&kobj->entry);  //都指向自己,prev和next  
    kobj->state_in_sysfs = 0;  
    kobj->state_add_uevent_sent = 0;  
    kobj->state_remove_uevent_sent = 0;  
    kobj->state_initialized = 1;  
}  
-------static int kobject_add_varg(struct kobject *kobj, struct kobject *parent,  
                const char *fmt, va_list vargs)  
{  
    int retval;  
    retval = kobject_set_name_vargs(kobj, fmt, vargs);  //设置名字,名字中不能有“/”  
    if (retval) {  
        printk(KERN_ERR "kobject: can not set name properly!/n");  
        return retval;  
    }  
    kobj->parent = parent;                 //设置parent,其父节点  
    return kobject_add_internal(kobj);  
}  
----static int kobject_add_internal(struct kobject *kobj)  
{  
    int error = 0;  
    struct kobject *parent;  
    if (!kobj)  
        return -ENOENT;  
    if (!kobj->name || !kobj->name[0]) {             //名字不能为空  
        WARN(1, "kobject: (%p): attempted to be registered with empty "  
             "name!/n", kobj);  
        return -EINVAL;  
    }  
    parent = kobject_get(kobj->parent);  //如果parent为真,则增加kobj->kref计数,也就是父节点的引用计数  
    /* join kset if set, use it as parent if we do not already have one */  
    if (kobj->kset) {                     
        if (!parent)  
            parent = kobject_get(&kobj->kset->kobj);  //如果kobj-parent父节点为NULL那么就用kobj->kset->kobj  
                                                                            //  作其父节点,并增加其引用计数  
        kobj_kset_join(kobj);                         //把kobj的entry成员添加到kobj->kset>list的尾部,现在的层次就是  
        kobj->parent = parent;                     //kobj->kset->list指向kobj->parent   
    }                                                     //    ->parent 指向kset->kobj                            
    pr_debug("kobject: '%s' (%p): %s: parent: '%s', set: '%s'/n",  
         kobject_name(kobj), kobj, __func__,  
         parent ? kobject_name(parent) : "<NULL>",  
         kobj->kset ? kobject_name(&kobj->kset->kobj) : "<NULL>");  
    error = create_dir(kobj);   //利用kobj创建目录和属性文件,其中会判断,如果parent为NULL那么就在sysfs_root下创建  
    if (error) {  
        kobj_kset_leave(kobj);  
        kobject_put(parent);  
        kobj->parent = NULL;  
        /* be noisy on error issues */  
        if (error == -EEXIST)  
            printk(KERN_ERR "%s failed for %s with "  
                   "-EEXIST, don't try to register things with "  
                   "the same name in the same directory./n",  
                   __func__, kobject_name(kobj));  
        else  
            printk(KERN_ERR "%s failed for %s (%d)/n",  
                   __func__, kobject_name(kobj), error);  
        dump_stack();  
    } else  
        kobj->state_in_sysfs = 1;  
    return error;  
}  
---static int create_dir(struct kobject *kobj)  
{  
    int error = 0;  
    if (kobject_name(kobj)) {  
        error = sysfs_create_dir(kobj);       //创建目录  
        if (!error) {  
            error = populate_dir(kobj);   //创建属性文件  
            if (error)  
                sysfs_remove_dir(kobj);  
        }  
    }  
    return error;  
}  

  

三、关于 kset

      首先看一下kset的原型

struct kset {  
    struct list_head list;  //连接着他下面的kobj成员,与kobj-entry关联  
    spinlock_t list_lock;  
    struct kobject kobj;    //代表kset自己  
    const struct kset_uevent_ops *uevent_ops;  
}; 

  再来看一下kset的初始化操作,kset表现为更高级一点的kobj,其初始化操作仍然是围绕其内部的kobj展开的。

struct kset *kset_create_and_add(const char *name,  
                 const struct kset_uevent_ops *uevent_ops,  
                 struct kobject *parent_kobj)  
{  
    struct kset *kset;  
    int error;  
    kset = kset_create(name, uevent_ops, parent_kobj);  //创建kset,关联操作函数和其父节点  
    if (!kset)  
        return NULL;  
    error = kset_register(kset);  
    if (error) {  
        kfree(kset);  
        return NULL;  
    }  
    return kset;  
}  
---static struct kset *kset_create(const char *name,  
                const struct kset_uevent_ops *uevent_ops,  
                struct kobject *parent_kobj)  
{  
    struct kset *kset;  
    int retval;  
    kset = kzalloc(sizeof(*kset), GFP_KERNEL);  //申请结构体内存  
    if (!kset)  
        return NULL;  
    retval = kobject_set_name(&kset->kobj, name);  //设置名字  
    if (retval) {  
        kfree(kset);  
        return NULL;  
    }  
    kset->uevent_ops = uevent_ops;               //关联操作函数  
    kset->kobj.parent = parent_kobj;             //关联父节点  
    /* 
     * The kobject of this kset will have a type of kset_ktype and belong to 
     * no kset itself.  That way we can properly free it when it is 
     * finished being used. 
     */  
    kset->kobj.ktype = &kset_ktype;            //关联属性文件  
    kset->kobj.kset = NULL;                      
    return kset;  
}  
----int kset_register(struct kset *k)  
{  
    int err;  
    if (!k)  
        return -EINVAL;  
    kset_init(k);  
    err = kobject_add_internal(&k->kobj);     //调用kobj操作函数      
    if (err)  
        return err;  
    kobject_uevent(&k->kobj, KOBJ_ADD);  
    return 0;  
}  
----void kset_init(struct kset *k)  
{  
    kobject_init_internal(&k->kobj);          //调用kobj操作函数  
    INIT_LIST_HEAD(&k->list);  
    spin_lock_init(&k->list_lock);  
}  

  四、上面给出了kobj,kset的初始化过程,以及相互产生关联的关键点,下面给出整体的一个流程图:
