一个现实的linux设备和驱动通常要挂接在一种总线上，像pci，usb，iic，spi等都是总线结构，这当然不是问题，但是嵌入式系统中，Soc系统集成的独立外设控制器，挂接在soc内存空间的外设等却不依附于此类总线。

基于这个背景，linux发明了一种虚拟总线：platform总线，相应的设备称为platform_device，而驱动成为platform_driver。注意，platform_device并不是与自负设备，块设备等平行的概念，而是linux提供的一种附加手段，例如s3c2440处理器中，把内部集成的iic，rtc，spi，lcd，watchdog，等控制器归纳为platform_device，但是他们本身就是字符设备。

platform_device

[cpp] view plain copy print ?

struct platform_device {
const char * name;
int id;
struct device dev;
u32 num_resources;
struct resource * resource;
const struct platform_device_id *id_entry;
/* arch specific additions */
struct pdev_archdata archdata;
};

struct platform_device { const char * name; int id; struct device dev; u32 num_resources; struct resource * resource; const struct platform_device_id *id_entry; /* arch specific additions */ struct pdev_archdata archdata; };

platform_device成员变量

1、struct device（部分），include<linux/device.h>

[cpp] view plain copy print ?

struct device {
struct device *parent;
struct device_private *p;
struct kobject kobj;
const char *init_name; /* initial name of the device */
struct device_type *type;
struct mutex mutex; /* mutex to synchronize calls to
* its driver.
*/
struct bus_type *bus; /* type of bus device is on */
struct device_driver *driver; /* which driver has allocated this
device */
void *platform_data; /* Platform specific data, device
core doesn’t touch it */

struct device { struct device *parent; struct device_private *p; struct kobject kobj; const char *init_name; /* initial name of the device */ struct device_type *type; struct mutex mutex; /* mutex to synchronize calls to * its driver. */ struct bus_type *bus; /* type of bus device is on */ struct device_driver *driver; /* which driver has allocated this device */ void *platform_data; /* Platform specific data, device core doesn’t touch it */

2、struct resource

[cpp] view plain copy print ?

struct resource {
resource_size_t start;
resource_size_t end;
const char *name;
unsigned long flags;
struct resource *parent, *sibling, *child;
};

struct resource { resource_size_t start; resource_size_t end; const char *name; unsigned long flags; struct resource *parent, *sibling, *child; }; platform_device对应的platform_driver

[cpp] view plain copy print ?

struct platform_driver {
int (*probe)(struct platform_device *);
int (*remove)(struct platform_device *);
void (*shutdown)(struct platform_device *);
int (*suspend)(struct platform_device *, pm_message_t state);
int (*resume)(struct platform_device *);
struct device_driver driver;
const struct platform_device_id *id_table;
};

struct platform_driver { int (*probe)(struct platform_device *); int (*remove)(struct platform_device *); void (*shutdown)(struct platform_device *); int (*suspend)(struct platform_device *, pm_message_t state); int (*resume)(struct platform_device *); struct device_driver driver; const struct platform_device_id *id_table; }; 支持电源管理时，需要实现 shutdown，suspend，resume这三个函数，若不支持，将他们设为null。

platform_driver结构体中的重要成员变量 device_driver

[cpp] view plain copy print ?

struct device_driver {
const char *name;
struct bus_type *bus;
struct module *owner;
const char *mod_name; /* used for built-in modules */
bool suppress_bind_attrs; /* disables bind/unbind via sysfs */
#if defined(CONFIG_OF)
const struct of_device_id *of_match_table;
#endif
int (*probe) (struct device *dev);
int (*remove) (struct device *dev);
void (*shutdown) (struct device *dev);
int (*suspend) (struct device *dev, pm_message_t state);
int (*resume) (struct device *dev);
const struct attribute_group **groups;
const struct dev_pm_ops *pm;
struct driver_private *p;
};

struct device_driver { const char *name; struct bus_type *bus; struct module *owner; const char *mod_name; /* used for built-in modules */ bool suppress_bind_attrs; /* disables bind/unbind via sysfs */ #if defined(CONFIG_OF) const struct of_device_id *of_match_table; #endif int (*probe) (struct device *dev); int (*remove) (struct device *dev); void (*shutdown) (struct device *dev); int (*suspend) (struct device *dev, pm_message_t state); int (*resume) (struct device *dev); const struct attribute_group **groups; const struct dev_pm_ops *pm; struct driver_private *p; };

用于向内核注册platform_driver的函数platform_driver_register(platform_driver *)

反之，注销platform_driver的函数platform_drvier_unregister(platform*)

一般实现platform_driver时，除了实现file_operations中的read、write等函数外，还要实现platform_driver中的probe与remove等函数，其余均按正常的linux设备驱动的编写方法编写驱动程序。

例如将mychar移植成platform_driver，简略的如下形式

[cpp] view plain copy print ?

static int __devinit mychar_probe(struct platform_device *pdev)
{
//申请设备号
//申请设备结构体的内存
//注册cdev
//其实probe 函数里就是实现之前在mychar_init中实现的功能
}
static int __devexit mychar_remove(struct platform_device *pdev)
{
//实现之前在mychar_exit()中的释放内存的功能
}
static struct platform_driver mychar_device_driver = {
.probe = mychar_probe,
.remove = __devexit_p(mychar_remove),
.driver = {
.name = “mychar”,
.owner = THIS_MODULE,
}
};
//在mychar_init中注册platform_driver
static int __init mychar_init(void)
{
return platform_driver_register(&mychar_device_driver);
}
//在mychar_exit 中注销platform
static void __exit mychar_exit(void)
{
platform_driver_unregister(mychar_device_driver);
}
//驱动余下部分与之前实现的mychar相同
module_init(mychar_init);
module_exit(mychar_exit);

static int __devinit mychar_probe(struct platform_device *pdev) { //申请设备号 //申请设备结构体的内存 //注册cdev //其实probe 函数里就是实现之前在mychar_init中实现的功能 } static int __devexit mychar_remove(struct platform_device *pdev) { //实现之前在mychar_exit()中的释放内存的功能 } static struct platform_driver mychar_device_driver = { .probe = mychar_probe, .remove = __devexit_p(mychar_remove), .driver = { .name = “mychar”, .owner = THIS_MODULE, } }; //在mychar_init中注册platform_driver static int __init mychar_init(void) { return platform_driver_register(&mychar_device_driver); } //在mychar_exit 中注销platform static void __exit mychar_exit(void) { platform_driver_unregister(mychar_device_driver); } //驱动余下部分与之前实现的mychar相同 module_init(mychar_init); module_exit(mychar_exit);注意，如果要让这个驱动在开发板上能工作，需要在板文件中添加相应的代码，在板文件例如 arch/arm/mach-s3c2440/mach-mini2440.c，代码如下

[cpp] view plain copy print ?

static struct platform_device mychar_device = {
.name = “mychar”,
.id = -1,
};

static struct platform_device mychar_device = { .name = “mychar”, .id = -1, };这样就表示，开发板上有一个devie，名字叫mychar，因为mychar是内存中虚拟出来的，所以这里并不需要设置别的，只要设置一下与driver相匹配的name：mychar就可以了

通常开发板不会只有这一个设备，所以在platform_device数组中，将上面的mychar_device添加进来，如下：

[cpp] view plain copy print ?

static struct platform_device *mini2440_devices[] __initdata = {
&mychar_device,
&s3c_rtc,
&s3c_device_fb,
…
}

static struct platform_device *mini2440_devices[] __initdata = { &mychar_device, &s3c_rtc, &s3c_device_fb, … }

platform_devece的资源与数据（resource 与platform_data）

还记的在platform_device 中的struct resource *resource吗，

[cpp] view plain copy print ?

<pre name=“code” class=“cpp”> resource_size_t start;
resource_size_t end;
const char *name;
unsigned long flags;

<pre name=”code” class=”cpp”> resource_size_t start; resource_size_t end; const char *name; unsigned long flags;

通常只关心struct resource中的以上四个成员变量

start 与end两个字段的值随着flags的改变而改变，当flags 为 IORESOURCE_MEM 时，start，end分别表示该platform_device 占据的内存的开始地址和结束地址，若flags为IORESOURCE_IRQ 时，start end 则表示该platform_device 使用的中断号的开始值和结束值，假如只使用了1个中断号，那么start与end相同。

例如dm9000的resource部分：

[cpp] view plain copy print ?

/* DM9000AEP 10/100 ethernet controller */
static struct resource mini2440_dm9k_resource[] = {
[0] = {
.start = MACH_MINI2440_DM9K_BASE,
.end = MACH_MINI2440_DM9K_BASE + 3,
.flags = IORESOURCE_MEM
},
[1] = {
.start = MACH_MINI2440_DM9K_BASE + 4,
.end = MACH_MINI2440_DM9K_BASE + 7,
.flags = IORESOURCE_MEM
},
[2] = {
.start = IRQ_EINT7,
.end = IRQ_EINT7,
.flags = IORESOURCE_IRQ | IORESOURCE_IRQ_HIGHEDGE,
}
};

/* DM9000AEP 10/100 ethernet controller */ static struct resource mini2440_dm9k_resource[] = { [0] = { .start = MACH_MINI2440_DM9K_BASE, .end = MACH_MINI2440_DM9K_BASE + 3, .flags = IORESOURCE_MEM }, [1] = { .start = MACH_MINI2440_DM9K_BASE + 4, .end = MACH_MINI2440_DM9K_BASE + 7, .flags = IORESOURCE_MEM }, [2] = { .start = IRQ_EINT7, .end = IRQ_EINT7, .flags = IORESOURCE_IRQ | IORESOURCE_IRQ_HIGHEDGE, } };所谓的resource，具体来时是与板级硬件密切相关的，比如控制器映射到soc内存的地址范围，外部中断引脚等，

当然，要把定义的这个resources[]赋值给platform_device的.resource 字段，同时要设置.num_resources资源个数。

设备除了可以再bsp中定义资源以外，还可以附加一些数据信息，因为对设备的硬件描述除了中断，内存，DMA通道以外，可能还会有一些配置信息，而这些配置信息也依赖于板，不宜直接放置在设备驱动本身，因此platform也提供了platform_data的支持，platform_data的形式是自定义的，比如对于dm9000网卡来说，platform_data中可以存放mac地址，总线宽度，板上有误eeprom等信息。

[cpp] view plain copy print ?

* The DM9000 has no eeprom, and it’s MAC address is set by
* the bootloader before starting the kernel.
*/
tatic struct dm9000_plat_data mini2440_dm9k_pdata = {
.flags = (DM9000_PLATF_16BITONLY | DM9000_PLATF_NO_EEPROM),
;

* The DM9000 has no eeprom, and it’s MAC address is set by * the bootloader before starting the kernel. */ static struct dm9000_plat_data mini2440_dm9k_pdata = { .flags = (DM9000_PLATF_16BITONLY | DM9000_PLATF_NO_EEPROM), }; 然后将这个data赋值给platform_device中.dev的.platform_data数据项，如下：

[cpp] view plain copy print ?

static struct platform_device mini2440_device_eth = {
.name = “dm9000”,
.id = -1,
.num_resources = ARRAY_SIZE(mini2440_dm9k_resource),
.resource = mini2440_dm9k_resource,
.dev = {
.platform_data = &mini2440_dm9k_pdata,
},
};

static struct platform_device mini2440_device_eth = { .name = “dm9000”, .id = -1, .num_resources = ARRAY_SIZE(mini2440_dm9k_resource), .resource = mini2440_dm9k_resource, .dev = { .platform_data = &mini2440_dm9k_pdata, }, }; 所以在抑制linux到具体的开发板时，基本都是这么移植的是不是？回答是肯定的，这里注意了，以上与板级硬件密切相关的代码部分，均在bsp板级支持文件中，例如mach-s3c2440.c中，但是你看到了真正的驱动了吗比如字符设备的read write等函数的实现了吗。

真正的驱动代码在内核的driver文件夹下，比如dm9000的驱动在 drviver/net/文件夹下的dm9000.c中，而且这部分的代码是与具体的板级硬件无关的，再比如nandflash的驱动，配置也是在mach-s3c2440.c中，但关键的驱动源码在 drvier/mtd/nand/文件夹下

这样的结构就是linux驱动的分层思想，设备驱动的核心层与例化。
