[RFC PATCH 19/21] usb: Add USB subsystem notifications

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Add a USB subsystem notification mechanism whereby notifications about
hardware events such as device connection, disconnection, reset and I/O
errors, can be reported to a monitoring process asynchronously.

Firstly, an event queue needs to be created:

	pipe2(fds, O_TMPFILE);
	ioctl(fds[1], IOC_WATCH_QUEUE_SET_SIZE, 256);

then a notification can be set up to report USB notifications via that
queue:

	struct watch_notification_filter filter = {
		.nr_filters = 1,
		.filters = {
			[0] = {
				.type = WATCH_TYPE_USB_NOTIFY,
				.subtype_filter[0] = UINT_MAX;
			},
		},
	};
	ioctl(fds[1], IOC_WATCH_QUEUE_SET_FILTER, &filter);
	notify_devices(fds[1], 12);

After that, messages will be placed into the queue when events occur on a
USB device or bus.  Messages are of the following format:

	struct usb_notification {
		struct watch_notification watch;
		__u32	error;
		__u32	reserved;
		__u8	name_len;
		__u8	name[0];
	} *n;

Where:

	n->watch.type will be WATCH_TYPE_USB_NOTIFY

	n->watch.subtype will be the type of notification, such as
	NOTIFY_USB_DEVICE_ADD.

	n->watch.info & WATCH_INFO_LENGTH will indicate the length of the
	message.

	n->watch.info & WATCH_INFO_ID will be the second argument to
	device_notify(), shifted.

	n->error and n->reserved are intended to convey information such as
	error codes, but are currently not used

	n->name_len and n->name convey the USB device name as an
	unterminated string.  This may be truncated - it is currently
	limited to a maximum 63 chars.

Note that it is permissible for messages to be of variable length - or, at
least, the length may be dependent on the subtype.
