3Description of the Interface between Linklevel and Hardwarelevel
4  of isdn4linux:
5
6
7  The Communication between Linklevel (LL) and Hardwarelevel (HL)
8  is based on the struct isdn_if (defined in isdnif.h).
9
10  An HL-driver can register itself at LL by calling the function
11  register_isdn() with a pointer to that struct. Prior to that, it has
12  to preset some of the fields of isdn_if. The LL sets the rest of
13  the fields. All further communication is done via callbacks using
14  the function-pointers defined in isdn_if.
15
16  Changes/Version numbering:
17
18  During development of the ISDN subsystem, several changes have been
19  made to the interface. Before it went into kernel, the package
20  had a unique version number. The last version, distributed separately
21  was 0.7.4. When the subsystem went into kernel, every functional unit
22  got a separate version number. These numbers are shown at initialization,
23  separated by slashes:
24
25     c.c/t.t/n.n/p.p/a.a/v.v
26
27  where
28
29   c.c is the revision of the common code.
30   t.t is the revision of the tty related code.
31   n.n is the revision of the network related code.
32   p.p is the revision of the ppp related code.
33   a.a is the revision of the audio related code.
34   v.v is the revision of the V.110 related code.
35
36  Changes in this document are marked with '***CHANGEx' where x representing
37  the version number. If that number starts with 0, it refers to the old,
38  separately distributed package. If it starts with one of the letters
39  above, it refers to the revision of the corresponding module. 
40  ***CHANGEIx refers to the revision number of the isdnif.h  
41
421. Description of the fields of isdn_if:
43
44  int channels;
45
46    This field has to be set by the HL-driver to the number of channels
47    supported prior to calling register_isdn(). Upon return of the call,
48    the LL puts an id there, which has to be used by the HL-driver when
49    invoking the other callbacks.
50
51  int maxbufsize;
52
53    ***CHANGE0.6: New since this version.
54
55    Also to be preset by the HL-driver. With this value the HL-driver
56    tells the LL the maximum size of a data-packet it will accept. 
57
58  unsigned long features;
59
60    To be preset by the HL-driver. Using this field, the HL-driver
61    announces the features supported. At the moment this is limited to
62    report the supported layer2 and layer3-protocols. For setting this
63    field the constants ISDN_FEATURE..., declared in isdnif.h have to be
64    used.
65
66    ***CHANGE0.7.1: The line type (1TR6, EDSS1) has to be set.
67
68  unsigned short hl_hdrlen;
69
70    ***CHANGE0.7.4: New field.
71
72    To be preset by the HL-driver, if it supports sk_buff's. The driver
73    should put here the amount of additional space needed in sk_buff's for
74    its internal purposes. Drivers not supporting sk_buff's should 
75    initialize this field to 0.
76
77  void (*rcvcallb_skb)(int, int, struct sk_buff *)
78
79    ***CHANGE0.7.4: New field.
80
81    This field will be set by LL. The HL-driver delivers received data-
82    packets by calling this function. Upon calling, the HL-driver must
83    already have its private data pulled off the head of the sk_buff.
84
85    Parameter:
86      int              driver-Id
87      int              Channel-number locally to the driver. (starting with 0)
88      struct sk_buff * Pointer to sk_buff, containing received data.
89
90  int (*statcallb)(isdn_ctrl*);
91
92    This field will be set by LL. This function has to be called by the
93    HL-driver for signaling status-changes or other events to the LL.
94
95    Parameter:
96      isdn_ctrl*
97
98      The struct isdn_ctrl also defined in isdn_if. The exact meanings of its
99      fields are described together with the descriptions of the possible
100      events. Here is only a short description of the fields:
101
102        driver  = driver Id.
103        command = event-type. (one of the constants ISDN_STAT_...)
104        arg     = depends on event-type.
105        num     = depends on event-type.
106
107    Returnvalue:
108      0 on success, else -1
109
110  int (*command)(isdn_ctrl*);
111
112    This field has to be preset by the HL-driver. It points to a function,
113    to be called by LL to perform functions like dialing, B-channel
114    setup, etc. The exact meaning of the parameters is described with the
115    descriptions of the possible commands.
116
117    Parameter:
118      isdn_ctrl*
119        driver  = driver-Id
120        command = command to perform. (one of the constants ISDN_CMD_...)
121        arg     = depends on command.
122        num     = depends on command.
123    
124    Returnvalue:
125      >=0 on success, else error-code (-ENODEV etc.)
126
127  int (*writebuf_skb)(int, int, int, struct sk_buff *)
128
129    ***CHANGE0.7.4: New field.
130    ***CHANGEI.1.21: New field.
131
132    This field has to be preset by the HL-driver. The given function will
133    be called by the LL for delivering data to be send via B-Channel.
134
135 
136    Parameter:
137      int              driver-Id ***CHANGE0.7.4: New parameter.
138      int              channel-number locally to the HL-driver. (starts with 0)
139      int	       ack ***ChangeI1.21: New parameter
140		       If this is !0, the driver has to signal the delivery
141		       by sending an ISDN_STAT_BSENT. If this is 0, the driver
142		       MUST NOT send an ISDN_STAT_BSENT.
143      struct sk_buff * Pointer to sk_buff containing data to be send via
144                       B-channel.

146    Returnvalue:
147      Length of data accepted on success, else error-code (-EINVAL on
148      oversized packets etc.)
149
150  int (*writecmd)(u_char*, int, int, int, int);
151
152    This field has to be preset by the HL-driver. The given function will be
153    called to perform write-requests on /dev/isdnctrl (i.e. sending commands
154    to the card) The data-format is hardware-specific. This function is
155    intended for debugging only. It is not necessary for normal operation
156    and never will be called by the tty-emulation- or network-code. If
157    this function is not supported, the driver has to set NULL here.
158
159    Parameter:
160      u_char* pointer to data.
161      int     length of data.
162      int     flag: 0 = call from within kernel-space. (HL-driver must use
163                        memcpy, may NOT use schedule())
164                    1 = call from user-space. (HL-driver must use
165                        memcpy_fromfs, use of schedule() allowed)
166      int     driver-Id.
167      int     channel-number locally to the HL-driver. (starts with 0)
168
169***CHANGEI1.14: The driver-Id and channel-number are new since this revision.
170
171    Returnvalue:
172      Length of data accepted on success, else error-code (-EINVAL etc.)
173
174  int (*readstat)(u_char*, int, int, int, int);
175
176    This field has to be preset by the HL-driver. The given function will be
177    called to perform read-requests on /dev/isdnctrl (i.e. reading replies
178    from the card) The data-format is hardware-specific. This function is
179    intended for debugging only. It is not necessary for normal operation
180    and never will be called by the tty-emulation- or network-code. If
181    this function is not supported, the driver has to set NULL here.
182
183    Parameter:
184      u_char* pointer to data.
185      int     length of data.
186      int     flag: 0 = call from within kernel-space. (HL-driver must use
187                        memcpy, may NOT use schedule())
188                    1 = call from user-space. (HL-driver must use
189                        memcpy_fromfs, use of schedule() allowed)
190      int     driver-Id.
191      int     channel-number locally to the HL-driver. (starts with 0)
192
193***CHANGEI1.14: The driver-Id and channel-number are new since this revision.
194
195    Returnvalue:
196      Length of data on success, else error-code (-EINVAL etc.)
197
198  char id[20];
199       ***CHANGE0.7: New since this version.
200
201   This string has to be preset by the HL-driver. Its purpose is for
202   identification of the driver by the user. Eg.: it is shown in the
203   status-info of /dev/isdninfo. Furthermore it is used as Id for binding
204   net-interfaces to a specific channel. If a string of length zero is
205   given, upon return, isdn4linux will replace it by a generic name. (line0,
206   line1 etc.) It is recommended to make this string configurable during
207   module-load-time. (copy a global variable to this string.) For doing that,
208   modules 1.2.8 or newer are necessary.
209
2102. Description of the commands, a HL-driver has to support:
211
212   All commands will be performed by calling the function command() described
213   above from within the LL. The field command of the struct-parameter will
214   contain the desired command, the field driver is always set to the
215   appropriate driver-Id.
216
217   Until now, the following commands are defined:
218
219***CHANGEI1.34: The parameter "num" has been replaced by a union "parm" containing
220                the old "num" and a new setup_type struct used for ISDN_CMD_DIAL
221                and ISDN_STAT_ICALL callback.
222
223   ISDN_CMD_IOCTL:
224
225     This command is intended for performing ioctl-calls for configuring
226     hardware or similar purposes (setting port-addresses, loading firmware
227     etc.) For this purpose, in the LL all ioctl-calls with an argument
228     >= IIOCDRVCTL (0x100) will be handed transparently to this
229     function after subtracting 0x100 and placing the result in arg.
230     Example:
231       If a userlevel-program calls ioctl(0x101,...) the function gets
232       called with the field command set to 1.
233
234     Parameter:
235       driver   = driver-Id.
236       command  = ISDN_CMD_IOCTL
237       arg      = Original ioctl-cmd - IIOCDRVCTL
238       parm.num = first bytes filled with (unsigned long)arg
239   
240     Returnvalue:
241       Depending on driver.
242
243  
244  ISDN_CMD_DIAL:
245
246    This command is used to tell the HL-driver it should dial a given
247    number.
248
249    Parameter:
250      driver      = driver-Id.
251      command     = ISDN_CMD_DIAL
252      arg         = channel-number locally to the driver. (starting with 0)
253      
254      parm.setup.phone  = An ASCII-String containing the number to dial.
255      parm.setup.eazmsn = An ASCII-Sting containing the own EAZ or MSN.
256      parm.setup.si1    = The Service-Indicator.
257      parm.setup.si2    = Additional Service-Indicator.
258
259                    If the Line has been designed as SPV (a special german
260                    feature, meaning semi-leased-line) the phone has to
261                    start with an "S".
262      ***CHANGE0.6: In previous versions the EAZ has been given in the
263                    highbyte of arg.
264    ***CHANGE0.7.1: New since this version: ServiceIndicator and AddInfo.

666
667  ISDN_STAT_ADDCH: 
668
669    This call is for HL-drivers, which are unable to check card-type
670    or numbers of supported channels before they have loaded any firmware
671    using ioctl. Those HL-driver simply set the channel-parameter to a
672    minimum channel-number when registering, and later if they know
673    the real amount, perform this call, allocating additional channels.
674
675    Parameter:
676      driver      = driver-Id
677      command     = ISDN_STAT_ADDCH

679      parm        = unused.
680
681  ISDN_STAT_CAUSE:
682
683    With this call, the HL-driver delivers CAUSE-messages to the LL.
684    Currently the LL does not use this messages. Their contents is simply
685    logged via kernel-messages. Therefore, currently the format of the
686    messages is completely free. However they should be printable.
687
688    Parameter:
689      driver      = driver-Id
690      command     = ISDN_STAT_NODCH
691      arg         = channel-number, locally to the driver. (starting with 0)
692      parm.num    = ASCII string containing CAUSE-message.
693
694  ISDN_STAT_DISPLAY:
695
696    With this call, the HL-driver delivers DISPLAY-messages to the LL.
697    Currently the LL does not use this messages. 
698
699    Parameter:

710    Parameter:
711      driver      = driver-Id
712      command     = ISDN_STAT_PROT
713      arg         = The lower 8 Bits define the addressed protocol as defined
714                    in ISDN_PTYPE..., the upper bits are used to differentiate
715                    the protocol specific STAT.  
716      
717      para        = protocol and function specific. See isdnif.h for detail.
718
719  ISDN_STAT_DISCH:
720
721    With this call, the HL-driver signals the LL to disable or enable the
722    use of supplied channel and driver.
723    The call may be used to reduce the available number of B-channels after
724    loading the driver. The LL has to ignore a disabled channel when searching
725    for free channels. The HL driver itself never delivers STAT callbacks for
726    disabled channels. 	    
727    The LL returns a nonzero code if the operation was not successful or the
728    selected channel is actually regarded as busy.
729
730    Parameter:
731      driver      = driver-Id
732      command     = ISDN_STAT_DISCH
733      arg         = channel-number, locally to the driver. (starting with 0)
734      parm.num[0] = 0 if channel shall be disabled, else enabled.

738    ***CHANGEI1.21 new status message.
739    A signal can be sent to the linklevel if an Layer1-error results in
740    packet-loss on receive or send. The field errcode of the cmd.parm
741    union describes the error more precisely.
742
743    Parameter:
744      driver      = driver-Id
745      command     = ISDN_STAT_L1ERR
746      arg         = channel-number, locally to the driver. (starting with 0)
747      parm.errcode= ISDN_STAT_L1ERR_SEND:     Packet lost while sending.
