Writing s390 channel device drivers

Author:Cornelia Huck

Introduction

This document describes the interfaces available for device drivers thatdrive s390 based channel attached I/O devices. This includes interfacesfor interaction with the hardware and interfaces for interacting withthe common driver core. Those interfaces are provided by the s390 commonI/O layer.

The document assumes a familarity with the technical terms associatedwith the s390 channel I/O architecture. For a description of thisarchitecture, please refer to the “z/Architecture: Principles ofOperation”, IBM publication no. SA22-7832.

While most I/O devices on a s390 system are typically driven through thechannel I/O mechanism described here, there are various other methods(like the diag interface). These are out of the scope of this document.

The s390 common I/O layer also provides access to some devices that arenot strictly considered I/O devices. They are considered here as well,although they are not the focus of this document.

Some additional information can also be found in the kernel source underDocumentation/s390/driver-model.rst.

The css bus

The css bus contains the subchannels available on the system. They fallinto several categories:

  • Standard I/O subchannels, for use by the system. They have a childdevice on the ccw bus and are described below.
  • I/O subchannels bound to the vfio-ccw driver. SeeDocumentation/s390/vfio-ccw.rst.
  • Message subchannels. No Linux driver currently exists.
  • CHSC subchannels (at most one). The chsc subchannel driver can be usedto send asynchronous chsc commands.
  • eADM subchannels. Used for talking to storage class memory.

The ccw bus

The ccw bus typically contains the majority of devices available to as390 system. Named after the channel command word (ccw), the basiccommand structure used to address its devices, the ccw bus containsso-called channel attached devices. They are addressed via I/Osubchannels, visible on the css bus. A device driver forchannel-attached devices, however, will never interact with thesubchannel directly, but only via the I/O device on the ccw bus, the ccwdevice.

I/O functions for channel-attached devices

Some hardware structures have been translated into C structures for useby the common I/O layer and device drivers. For more information on thehardware structures represented here, please consult the Principles ofOperation.

ccw devices

Devices that want to initiate channel I/O need to attach to the ccw bus.Interaction with the driver core is done via the common I/O layer, whichprovides the abstractions of ccw devices and ccw device drivers.

The functions that initiate or terminate channel I/O all act upon a ccwdevice structure. Device drivers must not bypass those functions orstrange side effects may happen.

The channel-measurement facility

The channel-measurement facility provides a means to collect measurementdata which is made available by the channel subsystem for each channelattached device.

structcmbdata

channel measurement block data for user space

Definition

struct cmbdata {  __u64 size;  __u64 elapsed_time;  __u64 ssch_rsch_count;  __u64 sample_count;  __u64 device_connect_time;  __u64 function_pending_time;  __u64 device_disconnect_time;  __u64 control_unit_queuing_time;  __u64 device_active_only_time;  __u64 device_busy_time;  __u64 initial_command_response_time;};

Members

size
size of the stored data
elapsed_time
time since last sampling
ssch_rsch_count
number of ssch and rsch
sample_count
number of samples
device_connect_time
time of device connect
function_pending_time
time of function pending
device_disconnect_time
time of device disconnect
control_unit_queuing_time
time of control unit queuing
device_active_only_time
time of device active only
device_busy_time
time of device busy (ext. format)
initial_command_response_time
initial command response time (ext. format)

Description

All values are stored as 64 bit for simplicity, especiallyin 32 bit emulation mode. All time values are normalized tonanoseconds.Currently, two formats are known, which differ by the size ofthis structure, i.e. the last two members are only set whenthe extended channel measurement facility (first shipped inz990 machines) is activated.Potentially, more fields could be added, which would result in anew ioctl number.

The ccwgroup bus

The ccwgroup bus only contains artificial devices, created by the user.Many networking devices (e.g. qeth) are in fact composed of several ccwdevices (like read, write and data channel for qeth). The ccwgroup busprovides a mechanism to create a meta-device which contains those ccwdevices as slave devices and can be associated with the netdevice.
