linux驱动——input输入子系统（1）—输入子系统核心层（Input Core）的地址链接
linux驱动——input输入子系统（2）——handler的地址链接
evdev输入事件驱动，为输入子系统提供了一个默认的事件处理方法。其接收来自底层驱动的大多数事件，并使用相应的逻辑对其进行处理。
1、evdev有关的代码都在Evdev.c (linux2.6.28\drivers\input)文件中，作为模块存在。
module_init(evdev_init);
module_exit(evdev_exit);
static void __exit evdev_exit(void)
{
input_unregister_handler(&evdev_handler);
}
static int __init evdev_init(void)
{
return input_register_handler(&evdev_handler);对这个函数应该很熟悉，我们上一篇才说过。
其中有：
static struct input_handler evdev_handler = {
.event
= evdev_event,
.connect
= evdev_connect,
.disconnect
= evdev_disconnect,
.fops = &evdev_fops,
.minor
= EVDEV_MINOR_BASE,
其中有：#define EVDEV_MINOR_BASE64
因为一个handler可以处理32个设备，所以evdev_handler所能处理的设备文件范围为（13,64）～（13,64+32），其中13是所有输入设备的主设备号。
.name = "evdev",
.id_table
= evdev_ids,
其中：static const struct input_device_id evdev_ids[] = {
{ .driver_info = 1 },/* Matches all devices */
{ }, /* Terminating zero entry */
};
evdev_ids没有定义flags，也没有定义匹配属性值。这个evdev_ids的意思就是：evdev_handler可以匹配所有 input_dev设备，也就是所有的input_dev发出的事件，都可以由evdev_handler来处理。
};
}
2、如果input_dev和handler匹配成功后，会调用handler->connect()函数，现在就来分析evdev_connect函数，源码如下所示：
/*
* Create new evdev device. Note that input core serializes calls
* to connect and disconnect so we don't need to lock evdev_table here.
*/
static int evdev_connect(struct input_handler *handler, struct input_dev *dev,
const struct input_device_id *id)
{
struct evdev *evdev;
int minor;
int error;
for (minor = 0; minor < EVDEV_MINORS; minor++)
if (!evdev_table[minor])
break;
其中有定义：#define EVDEV_MINORS32
static struct evdev *evdev_table[EVDEV_MINORS];
struct evdev {
int exist;
int open;
int minor;
char name[16];
struct input_handle handle;
wait_queue_head_t wait;
struct evdev_client *grab;
struct list_head client_list;
spinlock_t client_lock; /* protects client_list */
struct mutex mutex;
struct device dev;
};
表示evdev_handler所表示的32个设备，这个循环为了找到空的一项
if (minor == EVDEV_MINORS) { 没找到，则退出
printk(KERN_ERR "evdev: no more free evdev devices\n");
return -ENFILE;
}
evdev = kzalloc(sizeof(struct evdev), GFP_KERNEL);
if (!evdev)
return -ENOMEM;
INIT_LIST_HEAD(&evdev->client_list); 初始化
spin_lock_init(&evdev->client_lock);
mutex_init(&evdev->mutex);
init_waitqueue_head(&evdev->wait);
snprintf(evdev->name, sizeof(evdev->name), "event%d", minor);
evdev->exist = 1;
evdev->minor = minor;
evdev->handle.dev = input_get_device(dev); 对evdev中handle的初始化，这些初始化的目的是使input_dev和input_handler联系起来。
evdev->handle.name = evdev->name;
evdev->handle.handler = handler;
evdev->handle.private = evdev;
strlcpy(evdev->dev.bus_id, evdev->name, sizeof(evdev->dev.bus_id)); 初始化一个evdev->dev的设备
evdev->dev.devt = MKDEV(INPUT_MAJOR, EVDEV_MINOR_BASE + minor);
evdev->dev.class = &input_class;
evdev->dev.parent = &dev->dev;
evdev->dev.release = evdev_free;
device_initialize(&evdev->dev);
error = input_register_handle(&evdev->handle); 注册一个input_handle结构体
if (error)
goto err_free_evdev;
error = evdev_install_chrdev(evdev);源码如下：
static int evdev_install_chrdev(struct evdev *evdev)
{
/*
* No need to do any locking here as calls to connect and
* disconnect are serialized by the input core
*/
evdev_table[evdev->minor] = evdev;
return 0;
}
if (error)
goto err_unregister_handle;
error = device_add(&evdev->dev); 和设备模型有关
if (error)
goto err_cleanup_evdev;
return 0;
下面都是错误处理的代码
err_cleanup_evdev:
evdev_cleanup(evdev);
err_unregister_handle:
input_unregister_handle(&evdev->handle);
err_free_evdev:
put_device(&evdev->dev);
return error;
}
3、evdev设备的打开
对主设备号为INPUT_MAJOR的设备结点进行操作，会将操作集转换成handler的操作集。在evdev_handler中定义了一个fops集合，被赋值为evdev_fops的指针，evdev_fops结构的定义如下所示：
static const struct file_operations evdev_fops = {
.owner
= THIS_MODULE,
.read = evdev_read,
.write
= evdev_write,
.poll = evdev_poll,
.open = evdev_open,
.release
= evdev_release,
.unlocked_ioctl= evdev_ioctl,
#ifdef CONFIG_COMPAT
.compat_ioctl
= evdev_ioctl_compat,
#endif
.fasync
= evdev_fasync,
.flush
= evdev_flush
};
当用户程序调用open时，会调用evdev_open函数，源码如下：
static int evdev_open(struct inode *inode, struct file *file)
{
struct evdev *evdev;
struct evdev_client *client;
int i = iminor(inode) - EVDEV_MINOR_BASE; 得到了在evdev_table[]中的序号
int error;
if (i >= EVDEV_MINORS)
return -ENODEV;
error = mutex_lock_interruptible(&evdev_table_mutex);
if (error)
return error;
evdev = evdev_table[i]; 得到struct evdev
if (evdev)
get_device(&evdev->dev); 增加引用计数
mutex_unlock(&evdev_table_mutex);
if (!evdev)
return -ENODEV;
client = kzalloc(sizeof(struct evdev_client), GFP_KERNEL); 分配一个struct evdev_client结构体的空间
其中：
struct evdev_client {
struct input_event buffer[EVDEV_BUFFER_SIZE];
int head;
int tail;
spinlock_t buffer_lock; /* protects access to buffer, head and tail */
struct fasync_struct *fasync;
struct evdev *evdev;
struct list_head node;
};
if (!client) {
error = -ENOMEM;
goto err_put_evdev;
}
spin_lock_init(&client->buffer_lock);
client->evdev = evdev;
evdev_attach_client(evdev, client); 将client挂到evdev->client_list上。
error =evdev_open_device(evdev); 打开输入设备
static int evdev_open_device(struct evdev *evdev)
{
int retval;
retval = mutex_lock_interruptible(&evdev->mutex);
if (retval)
return retval;
if (!evdev->exist) 判断设备的存在
retval = -ENODEV;
else if (!evdev->open++) { 如果是第一次打开，调用input_open_device打开evdev对应的handle
retval = input_open_device(&evdev->handle);
if (retval)
evdev->open--;
}
mutex_unlock(&evdev->mutex);
return retval;
}
if (error)
goto err_free_client;
file->private_data = client; 将 client赋给file的private_data
return 0;
err_free_client:
evdev_detach_client(evdev, client);
kfree(client);
err_put_evdev:
put_device(&evdev->dev);
return error;
}
