Description of the Interface between Linklevel and Hardwarelevel
of isdn4linux:
The Communication between Linklevel (LL) and Hardwarelevel (HL)
is based on the struct isdn_if (defined in isdnif.h).
An HL-driver can register itself at LL by calling the function
register_isdn() with a pointer to that struct. Prior to that, it has
to preset some of the fields of isdn_if. The LL sets the rest of
the fields. All further communication is done via callbacks using
the function-pointers defined in isdn_if.
Changes/Version numbering:
During development of the ISDN subsystem, several changes have been
made to the interface. Before it went into kernel, the package
had a unique version number. The last version, distributed separately
was 0.7.4. When the subsystem went into kernel, every functional unit
got a separate version number. These numbers are shown at initialization,
separated by slashes:
c.c/t.t/n.n/p.p/a.a/v.v
where
c.c is the revision of the common code.
t.t is the revision of the tty related code.
n.n is the revision of the network related code.
p.p is the revision of the ppp related code.
a.a is the revision of the audio related code.
v.v is the revision of the V.110 related code.
Changes in this document are marked with '***CHANGEx' where x representing
the version number. If that number starts with 0, it refers to the old,
separately distributed package. If it starts with one of the letters
above, it refers to the revision of the corresponding module.
***CHANGEIx refers to the revision number of the isdnif.h
1. Description of the fields of isdn_if:
int channels;
This field has to be set by the HL-driver to the number of channels
supported prior to calling register_isdn(). Upon return of the call,
the LL puts an id there, which has to be used by the HL-driver when
invoking the other callbacks.
int maxbufsize;
***CHANGE0.6: New since this version.
Also to be preset by the HL-driver. With this value the HL-driver
tells the LL the maximum size of a data-packet it will accept.
unsigned long features;
To be preset by the HL-driver. Using this field, the HL-driver
announces the features supported. At the moment this is limited to
report the supported layer2 and layer3-protocols. For setting this
field the constants ISDN_FEATURE..., declared in isdnif.h have to be
used.
***CHANGE0.7.1: The line type (1TR6, EDSS1) has to be set.
unsigned short hl_hdrlen;
***CHANGE0.7.4: New field.
To be preset by the HL-driver, if it supports sk_buff's. The driver
should put here the amount of additional space needed in sk_buff's for
its internal purposes. Drivers not supporting sk_buff's should
initialize this field to 0.
void (*rcvcallb_skb)(int, int, struct sk_buff *)
***CHANGE0.7.4: New field.
This field will be set by LL. The HL-driver delivers received data-
packets by calling this function. Upon calling, the HL-driver must
already have its private data pulled off the head of the sk_buff.
Parameter:
int driver-Id
int Channel-number locally to the driver. (starting with 0)
struct sk_buff * Pointer to sk_buff, containing received data.
int (*statcallb)(isdn_ctrl*);
This field will be set by LL. This function has to be called by the
HL-driver for signaling status-changes or other events to the LL.
Parameter:
isdn_ctrl*
The struct isdn_ctrl also defined in isdn_if. The exact meanings of its
fields are described together with the descriptions of the possible
events. Here is only a short description of the fields:
driver = driver Id.
command = event-type. (one of the constants ISDN_STAT_...)
arg = depends on event-type.
num = depends on event-type.
Returnvalue:
0 on success, else -1
int (*command)(isdn_ctrl*);
This field has to be preset by the HL-driver. It points to a function,
to be called by LL to perform functions like dialing, B-channel
setup, etc. The exact meaning of the parameters is described with the
descriptions of the possible commands.
Parameter:
isdn_ctrl*
driver = driver-Id
command = command to perform. (one of the constants ISDN_CMD_...)
arg = depends on command.
num = depends on command.
Returnvalue:
>=0 on success, else error-code (-ENODEV etc.)
int (*writebuf_skb)(int, int, int, struct sk_buff *)
***CHANGE0.7.4: New field.
***CHANGEI.1.21: New field.
This field has to be preset by the HL-driver. The given function will
be called by the LL for delivering data to be send via B-Channel.
Parameter:
int driver-Id ***CHANGE0.7.4: New parameter.
int channel-number locally to the HL-driver. (starts with 0)
int ack ***ChangeI1.21: New parameter
If this is !0, the driver has to signal the delivery
by sending an ISDN_STAT_BSENT. If this is 0, the driver
MUST NOT send an ISDN_STAT_BSENT.
struct sk_buff * Pointer to sk_buff containing data to be send via
B-channel.
Returnvalue:
Length of data accepted on success, else error-code (-EINVAL on
oversized packets etc.)
int (*writecmd)(u_char*, int, int, int, int);
This field has to be preset by the HL-driver. The given function will be
called to perform write-requests on /dev/isdnctrl (i.e. sending commands
to the card) The data-format is hardware-specific. This function is
intended for debugging only. It is not necessary for normal operation
and never will be called by the tty-emulation- or network-code. If
this function is not supported, the driver has to set NULL here.
Parameter:
u_char* pointer to data.
int length of data.
int flag: 0 = call from within kernel-space. (HL-driver must use
memcpy, may NOT use schedule())
1 = call from user-space. (HL-driver must use
memcpy_fromfs, use of schedule() allowed)
int driver-Id.
int channel-number locally to the HL-driver. (starts with 0)
***CHANGEI1.14: The driver-Id and channel-number are new since this revision.
Returnvalue:
Length of data accepted on success, else error-code (-EINVAL etc.)
int (*readstat)(u_char*, int, int, int, int);
This field has to be preset by the HL-driver. The given function will be
called to perform read-requests on /dev/isdnctrl (i.e. reading replies
from the card) The data-format is hardware-specific. This function is
intended for debugging only. It is not necessary for normal operation
and never will be called by the tty-emulation- or network-code. If
this function is not supported, the driver has to set NULL here.
Parameter:
u_char* pointer to data.
int length of data.
int flag: 0 = call from within kernel-space. (HL-driver must use
memcpy, may NOT use schedule())
1 = call from user-space. (HL-driver must use
memcpy_fromfs, use of schedule() allowed)
int driver-Id.
int channel-number locally to the HL-driver. (starts with 0)
***CHANGEI1.14: The driver-Id and channel-number are new since this revision.
Returnvalue:
Length of data on success, else error-code (-EINVAL etc.)
char id[20];
***CHANGE0.7: New since this version.
This string has to be preset by the HL-driver. Its purpose is for
identification of the driver by the user. Eg.: it is shown in the
status-info of /dev/isdninfo. Furthermore it is used as Id for binding
net-interfaces to a specific channel. If a string of length zero is
given, upon return, isdn4linux will replace it by a generic name. (line0,
line1 etc.) It is recommended to make this string configurable during
module-load-time. (copy a global variable to this string.) For doing that,
modules 1.2.8 or newer are necessary.
2. Description of the commands, a HL-driver has to support:
All commands will be performed by calling the function command() described
above from within the LL. The field command of the struct-parameter will
contain the desired command, the field driver is always set to the
appropriate driver-Id.
Until now, the following commands are defined:

hardware or similar purposes (setting port-addresses, loading firmware
etc.) For this purpose, in the LL all ioctl-calls with an argument
>= IIOCDRVCTL (0x100) will be handed transparently to this
function after subtracting 0x100 and placing the result in arg.
Example:
If a userlevel-program calls ioctl(0x101,...) the function gets
called with the field command set to 1.
Parameter:
driver = driver-Id.

With this call, the HL-driver signals the LL to disable or enable the
use of supplied channel and driver.
The call may be used to reduce the available number of B-channels after
loading the driver. The LL has to ignore a disabled channel when searching
for free channels. The HL driver itself never delivers STAT callbacks for
disabled channels.
The LL returns a nonzero code if the operation was not successful or the
selected channel is actually regarded as busy.
Parameter:
driver = driver-Id
command = ISDN_STAT_DISCH
arg = channel-number, locally to the driver. (starting with 0)
