The data input register is used to obtain the input, and the data output register is sent to the host.Sending result. Therefore, the basic interface between the processor and the device is the control and Status Register. When the processor executes the program and encounters
First, we know that the driver is part of the kernel, so what role does the driver play in the kernel?The role of the device driver in the kernel: they are separate "black boxes" that enable a particular hardware to respond to a well-defined internal programming interface that completely hides the work details of the

0 is returned, indicating that the operation is successful. If one permission is disabled,-1 is returned. When you get the-1 value, you can refer to errno to determine the value returned by the actual device driver.

A Linux USB driver consists of two parts. Some are USB device controller (UDC) drivers and others are hardware-independent function drivers (such as mouse, USB flash drive, USB serial port, USB network, etc ); it can also be divided into three layers: controller drivers, Gadget drivers, and upper layers.
I. Controller (USB

level of the bus is added, and eventually all the connected PCI devices will be detected, the detailed probe process, which we analyze behind.
Each PCI device is uniquely identified by a set of parameters, which are stored in the pci_device_id of the struct body, defined in include/linux/mod_devicetable.h:

In struct bus_type, two linked lists are prepared for devices and drivers. The struct device represents two members, struct bus_type * bus and struct device_driver * driver. Similarly, the struct device_driver that represents the driver also has two members: struct bus_type * bus and struct list_head devices. The definition of struct
that the effect is not obvious. The reason is: lack of practice. Learning programming is the same as learning swimming, but it is impossible to learn it on paper. Without learning in practice, I soon forgot what I learned. In the end I learned only a rough idea. Starting from today, I will follow the path of "Linux Device Driver (version 3rd)", learn and program, and write this record at the same time to c

The core of the Linux TTY driver is immediately below the standard character device driver layer and provides a range of functions th
Mac module receives data from the network;
(4) The Mac module notifies the DMA module to fetch data;
(5) The DMA module extracts the appropriate BD from the BD table;
(6) The Mac module sends data to the cache corresponding to the current BD;
(7) the network device notifies the processor to start receiving data (in interrupted or polling mode );
(8) The protocol layer removes data from the current BD cache.
Step (3 )~ (6) The hardware is automaticall
Relationship between applications and library functions, kernels, and drivers
Applications, libraries, kernels, and drivers: the application calls the application function library to complete the function, the application accesses various resources in the form of files, the application function library, some functions directly complete the function, and some functions are called through the system.
The kernel calls the kernel processing system.
