硬件访问服务AIDL HAL

JNI 向上提供本地函数, 向下加载HAL文件并调用HAL的函数
HAL 负责访问驱动程序执行硬件操作

在Android 5 中 HAL module 框架主要分为如下三个结构体

hardware/libhardware/include/hardware/hardware.h 文件中定义

struct hw_module_t
struct hw_module_methods_t
struct hw_device_t

/**
 * Every hardware module must have a data structure named HAL_MODULE_INFO_SYM
 * and the fields of this data structure must begin with hw_module_t
 * followed by module specific information.
 * 大概的意思是 
硬件层必须导出  HAL_MODULE_INFO_SYM 且 一个成员变量必须是 hw_module_t
 */
typedef struct hw_module_t {
    /** tag must be initialized to HARDWARE_MODULE_TAG */
    uint32_t tag;

    /**
     * The API version of the implemented module. The module owner is
     * responsible for updating the version when a module interface has
     * changed.
     *
     * The derived modules such as gralloc and audio own and manage this field.
     * The module user must interpret the version field to decide whether or
     * not to inter-operate with the supplied module implementation.
     * For example, SurfaceFlinger is responsible for making sure that
     * it knows how to manage different versions of the gralloc-module API,
     * and AudioFlinger must know how to do the same for audio-module API.
     *
     * The module API version should include a major and a minor component.
     * For example, version 1.0 could be represented as 0x0100. This format
     * implies that versions 0x0100-0x01ff are all API-compatible.
     *
     * In the future, libhardware will expose a hw_get_module_version()
     * (or equivalent) function that will take minimum/maximum supported
     * versions as arguments and would be able to reject modules with
     * versions outside of the supplied range.
     */
    uint16_t module_api_version;
#define version_major module_api_version
    /**
     * version_major/version_minor defines are supplied here for temporary
     * source code compatibility. They will be removed in the next version.
     * ALL clients must convert to the new version format.
     */

    /**
     * The API version of the HAL module interface. This is meant to
     * version the hw_module_t, hw_module_methods_t, and hw_device_t
     * structures and definitions.
     *
     * The HAL interface owns this field. Module users/implementations
     * must NOT rely on this value for version information.
     *
     * Presently, 0 is the only valid value.
     */
    uint16_t hal_api_version;
#define version_minor hal_api_version

    /** Identifier of module */
    const char *id;

    /** Name of this module */
    const char *name;

    /** Author/owner/implementor of the module */
    const char *author;

    /** Modules methods */
    struct hw_module_methods_t* methods;

    /** module's dso */
    void* dso;

#ifdef __LP64__
    uint64_t reserved[32-7];
#else
    /** padding to 128 bytes, reserved for future use */
    uint32_t reserved[32-7];
#endif

} hw_module_t;

说明：1.硬件抽象层必须自定义一个硬件模块结构体 且第一个成员变量必须是 hw_module_t

　　　2.必须存在一个导出符号HAL_MODULE_INFO_SYM

　       3.tag成员值必须设置为HARDWARE_MODULE_TAG

          4.methods定义了硬件抽象层模块的操作方法列表  类型是 hw_module_methods_t

typedef struct hw_module_methods_t {
    /** Open a specific device */
    int (*open)(const struct hw_module_t* module, const char* id,
            struct hw_device_t** device);

} hw_module_methods_t;

说明：module  硬件所在模块

           id设备Id

           device 打开的设备

/**
 * Every device data structure must begin with hw_device_t
 * followed by module specific public methods and attributes.
 */
typedef struct hw_device_t {
    /** tag must be initialized to HARDWARE_DEVICE_TAG */
    uint32_t tag;

    /**
     * Version of the module-specific device API. This value is used by
     * the derived-module user to manage different device implementations.
     *
     * The module user is responsible for checking the module_api_version
     * and device version fields to ensure that the user is capable of
     * communicating with the specific module implementation.
     *
     * One module can support multiple devices with different versions. This
     * can be useful when a device interface changes in an incompatible way
     * but it is still necessary to support older implementations at the same
     * time. One such example is the Camera 2.0 API.
     *
     * This field is interpreted by the module user and is ignored by the
     * HAL interface itself.
     */
    uint32_t version;

    /** reference to the module this device belongs to */
    struct hw_module_t* module;

    /** padding reserved for future use */
#ifdef __LP64__
    uint64_t reserved[12];
#else
    uint32_t reserved[12];
#endif

    /** Close this device */
    int (*close)(struct hw_device_t* device);

} hw_device_t;

说明：1.每一个硬件设备必须自定义一个设备结构体 且第一个成员变量必须是hw_device_t

           2.结构体hw_device_t 成员tag必须设置值为HARDWARE_DEVICE_TAG

           3.成员close 是一个函数指针 用来关闭一个硬件设备

 

JNI 怎么使用HAL

　　a. hw_get_module 获得一个hw_module_t结构体

　　b. 调用 module->methods->open(module, device_name, &device)
　　　 获得一个hw_device_t结构体
　　　 并且把hw_device_t结构体转换为设备自定义的结构体

struct led_device_t{
    struct hw_device_t common;
    int (*led_open)(struct led_device_t* dev);
    int (*led_ctrl)(struct led_device_t * dev,int which,int status);
};

 

HAL 怎么编写

　　a. 实现一个名为HMI的hw_module_t结构体
　　b. 实现一个open函数, 它会根据name返回一个设备自定义的结构体
　　　 这个设备自定义的结构体的第1个成员是 hw_device_t结构体
　　　 还可以定义设备相关的成员
