Device drivers ported from the Linux kernel
|
|
|
|
USB
|
|
###
|
|
|
|
Controller configuration
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
|
|
The driver can be started using different or all USB controller types a platform
|
|
offers (USB 1.0/2.0/3.0). Note that not all controllers are supported by all
|
|
platforms. Controllers can be enabled as attribute in the config node of the
|
|
driver. Supported attributes are: 'uhci', 'ehci', and 'xhci'.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Configuration snippet to enable UHCI and EHCI
|
|
|
|
! <config uhci="yes" ehci="yes">
|
|
|
|
HID
|
|
~~~
|
|
|
|
Supports keyboard and mouse. A run script can be found under 'run/usb_hid.run'.
|
|
|
|
Configuration snippet:
|
|
|
|
!<start name="usb_drv">
|
|
! <resource name="RAM" quantum="3M"/>
|
|
! <provides><service name="Input"/></provides>
|
|
! <config uhci="yes" ehci="yes" xhci="yes">
|
|
! <hid/>
|
|
! </config>
|
|
!</start>
|
|
|
|
Note: It has been observed that certain 1.0 versions of Qemu do not generate
|
|
mouse interrupts. The mouse driver should work correctly on Qemu 1.0.93 and
|
|
above.
|
|
|
|
HID - Touchscreen support
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
|
|
Touchscreen absolute coordinates must be calibrated (e.g. re-calculated) to
|
|
screen absolute coordinates. The screen resolution is not determined
|
|
automatically by the USB driver, but can be configured as sub node of the
|
|
hid xml tag:
|
|
|
|
!...
|
|
!<hid>
|
|
! <touchscreen width="1024" height="768" multitouch="no"/>
|
|
!<hid/>
|
|
!...
|
|
|
|
If a touchscreen is multi-touch-capable than the multitouch attribute gears
|
|
which type of Genode input events are generated. If set to 'no' (default)
|
|
than absolute events are generated and no multitouch events. If set to 'yes'
|
|
solely multitouch events are generated.
|
|
|
|
Storage
|
|
~~~~~~~
|
|
|
|
Currently supports one USB storage device. Hot plugging has not been tested. A
|
|
run script can be found under 'run/usb_storage.run'.
|
|
|
|
Configuration snippet:
|
|
|
|
!<start name="usb_drv">
|
|
! <resource name="RAM" quantum="2M"/>
|
|
! <provides> <service name="Block"/> </provides>
|
|
! <config><storage /></config>
|
|
!</start uhci="yes">
|
|
|
|
|
|
Network (Nic)
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
|
|
Configuration snippet:
|
|
|
|
!<start name="usb_drv">
|
|
! <resource name="RAM" quantum="3M"/>
|
|
! <provides>
|
|
! <service name="Nic"/>
|
|
! <service name="Input"/>
|
|
! </provides>
|
|
! <config ehci="yes" xhci="yes">
|
|
! <nic mac="2e:60:90:0c:4e:01" />
|
|
! <hid/>
|
|
! </config>
|
|
!</start>
|
|
|
|
Please observe that this setup starts the HID and Nic service at the same time.
|
|
Also there is the 'mac' attribute where one can specify the hardware address of
|
|
the network interface. This is necessary in case the EEPROM of the network card
|
|
cannot be accessed via the host controller making it impossible to retrieve the
|
|
devices hardware address. If this is the case and no 'mac' attribute is given a
|
|
fallback address will be assigned to the network device. Note that the fallback
|
|
address will always be the same.
|

|
LXIP
|
|
####
|
|
|
|
LXIP is a port of the Linux TCP/IP stack to Genode. It is build as a shared
|
|
library named 'lxip.lib.so'. The IP stack can be interfaced using Genode's
|
|
version of 'libc' by linking your application to 'lxip_libc' plugin in your
|
|
'target.mk' file.
|
|
|
|
WIFI
|
|
####
|
|
|
|
The wifi_drv component is a port of the Linux mac802.11 stack, including the
|
|
iwlwifi driver as well as libnl and wpa_supplicant, to Genode.
|
|
|
|
Configuration snippet:
|
|
|
|
!<start name="wifi_drv">
|
|
! <resource name="RAM" quantum="32M"/>
|
|
! <provides><service name="Nic"/></provides>
|
|
! <config>
|
|
! <libc stdout="/dev/log" stderr="/dev/log" rtc="/dev/rtc">
|
|
! <vfs>
|
|
! <dir name="dev"> <log/> <rtc/>
|
|
! <jitterentropy name="random"/>
|
|
! <jitterentropy name="urandom"/>
|
|
! </dir>
|
|
! <inline name="wpa_supplicant.conf">
|
|
!network={
|
|
! id_str="foobar"
|
|
! ssid="foobar"
|
|
! key_mgmt=WPA-PSK
|
|
! psk="foobarfoobar"
|
|
!}
|
|
! </inline>
|
|
! </vfs>
|
|
! </libc>
|
|
! </config>
|
|
! <route>
|
|
! <service name="Rtc"> <any-child /> </service>
|
|
! <any-service> <parent/> <any-child /> </any-service>
|
|
! </route>
|
|
!</start
|
|
|
|
The wifi_drv creates two distinct reports to communicate its state and
|
|
information about the wireless infrastructure to other components. The
|
|
first one is a list of all available accesspoints. The following examplary
|
|
report shows its structure:
|
|
|
|
!<wlan_accesspoints>
|
|
! <accesspoint ssid="skynet" bssid="00:01:02:03:04:05" quality="40"/>
|
|
! <accesspoint ssid="foobar" bssid="01:02:03:04:05:06" quality="70" protection="WPA-PSK"/>
|
|
! <accesspoint ssid="foobar" bssid="01:02:03:04:05:07" quality="10" protection="WPA-PSK"/>
|
|
!</wlan_accesspoints>
|
|
|
|
Each accesspoint node has attributes that contain the SSID and the BSSID
|
|
of the accesspoint as well as the link quality (signal strength). These
|
|
attributes are mandatory. If the network is protected, the node will also
|
|
have an attribute describing the type of protection in addition.
|
|
|
|
The second report provides information about the state of the connection
|
|
to the currently connected accesspoint:
|
|
|
|
!<wlan_state>
|
|
! <accesspoint ssid="foobar" bssid="01:02:03:04:05:06" quality="70" protection="WPA-PSK" state="connected"/>
|
|
!</wlan_state>
|
|
|
|
Valid state values are 'connected', 'disconnected', 'connecting' and
|
|
'disconnecting'.
|
|
|
|
In return, the wifi_drv get its configuration via a ROM module. This ROM
|
|
module contains the configuration for the selected accesspoint.
|
|
To connect to an open accesspoint a configuration like the following is used:
|
|
|
|
!<selected_accesspoint ssid="foobar"/>
|
|
|
|
If the network is protected by, e.g., WPA/WPA2, the protection type as well
|
|
as the the pre-shared key have to be specified:
|
|
|
|
!<selected_accesspoint ssid="securefoobar" protection="WPA-PSK" psk="foobar123!"/>
|
|
|
|
If a network consists of several different access points and a particular one
|
|
should be used it can be selected by specifing its BSSID in a 'bssid'
|
|
attribute.
|
|
|
|
Of all attributes only the 'ssid' attribute is mandatory, all others are
|
|
optional and should only be used when needed.
|
|
|
|
To disconnect from an accesspoint, a empty configuration is sent:
|
|
|
|
!<selected_accesspoint/>
|
|
|
|
By subscribing to both reports and providing the required ROM module, a
|
|
component can control the wireless driver. An example therefore is the Qt
|
|
based component in 'src/app/qt_wifi_connect'.
|
|
|
|
Currently only WPA/WPA2 protection using a pre-shared key is supported.
|
|
|
|
RAW
|
|
~~~
|
|
|
|
Allows raw access to USB devices via the 'Usb' session interface.
|
|
|
|
Configuration snippet:
|
|
|
|
!<start name="usb_drv">
|
|
! <resource name="RAM" quantum="8M"/>
|
|
! <provides><service name="Usb"/></provides>
|
|
! <config uhci="yes" ehci="yes" xhci="yes">
|
|
! <raw>
|
|
! <report devices="yes"/>
|
|
! </raw>
|
|
! </config>
|
|
!</start>
|
|
|
|
The optional 'devices' report lists the connected devices and gets updated when devices are added or removed.
|
|
|
|
Example report:
|
|
|
|
<devices>
|
|
<device vendor_id="0x17ef" product_id="0x4816"/>
|
|
<device vendor_id="0x0a5c" product_id="0x217f"/>
|
|
<device vendor_id="0x8087" product_id="0x0020"/>
|
|
<device vendor_id="0x8087" product_id="0x0020"/>
|
|
<device vendor_id="0x1d6b" product_id="0x0002"/>
|
|
<device vendor_id="0x1d6b" product_id="0x0002"/>
|
|
</devices>
|
|
|
|
There is no distinction yet for multiple devices of the same type.
|
