1、下图是DM9000的引脚图
2、这里我们结合具体的开发板FL2440
下面是FL2440和DM9000的引脚链接图
本人移植DM9000的时候将设备的资源定义放在了arch/arm/plat-s3c24xx/devs.c中，详情点击上一篇博文linux内核移植-移植2.6.35.4内核到s3c2440
下面是设备的资源定义
/*DM9000*/
/* 定义该设备使用的资源 */
static struct resource s3c_dm9000_resource[] = {
[0] = { /* 寄存器定义在mach-s3c2410/include/mach/map.h */
.start = S3C24XX_PA_DM9000, /* 实际地址 0x20000300 */
.end = S3C24XX_PA_DM9000+ 0x3, /* 0x20000303 */
.flags = IORESOURCE_MEM /* 资源标志为地址资源 */
},
[1]={
.start = S3C24XX_PA_DM9000 + 0x4, //CMD pin is A2 0x20000304
.end = S3C24XX_PA_DM9000 + 0x4 + 0x7c, // 0x20000380
.flags = IORESOURCE_MEM /* 资源标志为地址资源 */
},
[2] = {
.start = IRQ_EINT7, /* 中断为外部7号中断 */
.end = IRQ_EINT7, /* 中断为外部7号中断 */
.flags = IORESOURCE_IRQ /* 资源标志为中断资源 */
},
};
这里可以看到，DM9000网卡使用的地址空间资源在nGCS4地址区域，所以上图的DM9000地址使能引脚连接nGCS4引脚。中断使用的是EINT7外部中断。
接着定义平台数据和平台设备，代码如下：
/* 定义平台数据 */
static struct dm9000_plat_data s3c_device_dm9000_platdata = {
.flags= DM9000_PLATF_16BITONLY,
};
/* 定义平台设备 */
struct platform_device s3c_device_dm9000 = {
.name= "dm9000", //设备名，该名称与平台设备驱动中的名称一致
.id= 0,
.num_resources= ARRAY_SIZE(s3c_dm9000_resource),
.resource= s3c_dm9000_resource, //定义设备的资源
.dev= {
.platform_data = &s3c_device_dm9000_platdata, //定义平台数据
}
};
最后导出函数符号，保存函数地址和名称
EXPORT_SYMBOL(s3c_device_dm9000);
3、设备启动的初始化过程
MACHINE_START(S3C2440, "SMDK2440")
/* Maintainer: Ben Dooks <ben-linux@fluff.org> */
.phys_io = S3C2410_PA_UART,
.io_pg_offst = (((u32)S3C24XX_VA_UART) >> 18) & 0xfffc,
.boot_params = S3C2410_SDRAM_PA + 0x100,
.init_irq = s3c24xx_init_irq,/* 初始化中断 */
.map_io = smdk2440_map_io,
.init_machine = smdk2440_machine_init,//定义设备的初始化函数
.timer = &s3c24xx_timer,
MACHINE_END
而后会执行下面函数
static void __init smdk2440_machine_init(void)
{
s3c24xx_fb_set_platdata(&smdk2440_fb_info);
s3c_i2c0_set_platdata(NULL);
s3c24xx_ts_set_platdata(&smdk2410_ts_cfg);/* Added by yan */
platform_add_devices(smdk2440_devices, ARRAY_SIZE(smdk2440_devices));/* 向平台中添加设备 */
smdk_machine_init();
}
下面是具体的设备列表
static struct platform_device *smdk2440_devices[] __initdata = {
&s3c_device_ohci,
&s3c_device_lcd,/* ok */
&s3c_device_wdt,/* ok */
&s3c_device_i2c0,
&s3c_device_iis,
&s3c_device_rtc,/* ok */
&s3c24xx_uda134x,
&s3c_device_dm9000,
&s3c_device_adc,/* ok */
&s3c_device_ts,/* ok */
};
这样系统启动时，会给设备列表中的设备分配资源（地址资源和中断资源等）。
4、信息传输中的信息封装结构
4.1、sk_buff结构，定义在include/linux/skbuff.h中
struct sk_buff {
/* These two members must be first. */
struct sk_buff *next;
struct sk_buff *prev;
ktime_t tstamp;
struct sock *sk;
struct net_device *dev;
/*
* This is the control buffer. It is free to use for every
* layer. Please put your private variables there. If you
* want to keep them across layers you have to do a skb_clone()
* first. This is owned by whoever has the skb queued ATM.
*/

#ifdef CONFIG_IPV6_NDISC_NODETYPE
__u8 ndisc_nodetype:2,

#else

#endif
kmemcheck_bitfield_end(flags2);
/* 0/14 bit hole */
#ifdef CONFIG_NET_DMA
dma_cookie_t dma_cookie;
#endif
#ifdef CONFIG_NETWORK_SECMARK
__u32 secmark;
#endif
union {

__u16 vlan_tci;
sk_buff_data_t transport_header;
sk_buff_data_t network_header;

sk_buff_data_t tail;
sk_buff_data_t end;
unsigned char *head,
