[PATCH v3 8/9] platform/surface: Add Surface Aggregator user-space interface

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

 



Add a misc-device providing user-space access to the Surface Aggregator
EC, mainly intended for debugging, testing, and reverse-engineering.
This interface gives user-space applications the ability to send
requests to the EC and receive the corresponding responses.

The device-file is managed by a pseudo platform-device and corresponding
driver to avoid dependence on the dedicated bus, allowing it to be
loaded in a minimal configuration.

A python library and scripts to access this device can be found at [1].

 - add copyright lines
 - change SPDX identifier to GPL-2.0+ (was GPL-2.0-or-later)
 - move from debugfs to proper misc-device
 - move interface definitions to uapi header

 - address issues when driver is unbound while file still open

Changes in v2:
 - add ioctl-number.rst entry
 - improve documentation
 - spell check comments and strings, fix typos
 - unify comment style
 - run checkpatch --strict, fix warnings and style issues

Changes in v3:

+==============================
+User-Space EC Interface (cdev)
+==============================
+
+The ``surface_aggregator_cdev`` module provides a misc-device for the SSAM
+controller to allow for a (more or less) direct connection from user-space to
+the SAM EC. It is intended to be used for development and debugging, and
+therefore should not be used or relied upon in any other way. Note that this
+module is not loaded automatically, but instead must be loaded manually.
+
+The provided interface is accessible through the ``/dev/surface/aggregator``
+device-file. All functionality of this interface is provided via IOCTLs.
+These IOCTLs and their respective input/output parameter structs are defined in
+``include/uapi/linux/surface_aggregator/cdev.h``.
+
+A small python library and scripts for accessing this interface can be found
+at https://github.com/linux-surface/surface-aggregator-module/tree/master/scripts/ssam.
+
+
+Controller IOCTLs
+=================
+
+The following IOCTLs are provided:
+
+.. flat-table:: Controller IOCTLs
+   :widths: 1 1 1 1 4
+   :header-rows: 1
+
+   * - Type
+     - Number
+     - Direction
+     - Name
+     - Description
+
+   * - ``0xA5``
+     - ``1``
+     - ``WR``
+     - ``REQUEST``
+     - Perform synchronous SAM request.
+
+
+``REQUEST``
+-----------
+
+Defined as ``_IOWR(0xA5, 1, struct ssam_cdev_request)``.
+
+Executes a synchronous SAM request. The request specification is passed in
+as argument of type |ssam_cdev_request|, which is then written to/modified
+by the IOCTL to return status and result of the request.
+
+Request payload data must be allocated separately and is passed in via the
+``payload.data`` and ``payload.length`` members. If a response is required,
+the response buffer must be allocated by the caller and passed in via the
+``response.data`` member. The ``response.length`` member must be set to the
+capacity of this buffer, or if no response is required, zero. Upon
+completion of the request, the call will write the response to the response
+buffer (if its capacity allows it) and overwrite the length field with the
+actual size of the response, in bytes.
+
+Additionally, if the request has a response, this must be indicated via the
+request flags, as is done with in-kernel requests. Request flags can be set
+via the ``flags`` member and the values correspond to the values found in
+|ssam_cdev_request_flags|.
+
+Finally, the status of the request itself is returned in the ``status``
+member (a negative errno value indicating failure). Note that failure
+indication of the IOCTL is separated from failure indication of the request:
+The IOCTL returns a negative status code if anything failed during setup of
+the request (``-EFAULT``) or if the provided argument or any of its fields
+are invalid (``-EINVAL``). In this case, the status value of the request
+argument may be set, providing more detail on what went wrong (e.g.
+``-ENOMEM`` for out-of-memory), but this value may also be zero. The IOCTL
+will return with a zero status code in case the request has been set up,
+submitted, and completed (i.e. handed back to user-space) successfully from
+inside the IOCTL, but the request ``status`` member may still be negative in
+case the actual execution of the request failed after it has been submitted.
+
+A full definition of the argument struct is provided below:
