Linux内核中Fixed-Link的相关内容2PHY驱动driver匹配上一回继续讲解of_phy_get_and_connect函数讲到了of_phy_connect函数本回开始解析该函数。为了便于理解和回顾再次贴出of_phy_get_and_connect函数代码在drivers/net/mdio/of_mdio.c中如下/** * of_phy_get_and_connect * - Get phy node and connect to the phy described in the device tree * dev: pointer to net_device claiming the phy * np: Pointer to device tree node for the net_device claiming the phy * hndlr: Link state callback for the network device * * If successful, returns a pointer to the phy_device with the embedded * struct device refcount incremented by one, or NULL on failure. The * refcount must be dropped by calling phy_disconnect() or phy_detach(). */ struct phy_device *of_phy_get_and_connect(struct net_device *dev, struct device_node *np, void (*hndlr)(struct net_device *)) { phy_interface_t iface; struct device_node *phy_np; struct phy_device *phy; int ret; ret of_get_phy_mode(np, iface); if (ret) return NULL; if (of_phy_is_fixed_link(np)) { ret of_phy_register_fixed_link(np); if (ret 0) { netdev_err(dev, broken fixed-link specification\n); return NULL; } phy_np of_node_get(np); } else { phy_np of_parse_phandle(np, phy-handle, 0); if (!phy_np) return NULL; } phy of_phy_connect(dev, phy_np, hndlr, 0, iface); of_node_put(phy_np); return phy; } EXPORT_SYMBOL(of_phy_get_and_connect);前文书讲过通过of_phy_register_fixed_link函数最终是通过fixed_phy_register函数完成了PHY设备struct phy_device设备的注册。接下来就要调用of_phy_connect函数来匹配PHY驱动struct phy_driver。当前正是讲到这个of_phy_connect函数。of_phy_connect函数。其也在drivers/net/mdio/of_mdio.c中代码如下/** * of_phy_connect - Connect to the phy described in the device tree * dev: pointer to net_device claiming the phy * phy_np: Pointer to device tree node for the PHY * hndlr: Link state callback for the network device * flags: flags to pass to the PHY * iface: PHY data interface type * * If successful, returns a pointer to the phy_device with the embedded * struct device refcount incremented by one, or NULL on failure. The * refcount must be dropped by calling phy_disconnect() or phy_detach(). */ struct phy_device *of_phy_connect(struct net_device *dev, struct device_node *phy_np, void (*hndlr)(struct net_device *), u32 flags, phy_interface_t iface) { struct phy_device *phy of_phy_find_device(phy_np); int ret; if (!phy) return NULL; phy-dev_flags | flags; ret phy_connect_direct(dev, phy, hndlr, iface); /* refcount is held by phy_connect_direct() on success */ put_device(phy-mdio.dev); return ret ? NULL : phy; } EXPORT_SYMBOL(of_phy_connect);先来看一下of_phy_connect函数的注释。of_phy_connect函数的作用是获取phy节点并连接到设备树中描述的phy。参数说明dev指向声称拥有phy的net_device的指针phy_np指向PHY设备树节点的指针hndlr网络设备的链路状态回调flags传递给PHY的标志ifacePHY数据接口类型返回值如果成功返回一个指向phy_device的指针其中嵌入的结构设备refcount递增1否则返回NULL。必须通过调用phy_disconnect()或phy_detach()来删除引用计数。下一回开始解析函数具体内容。
