Then, how GPIOs are mapped depends on what the platform uses to +describe its hardware layout. Currently, mappings can be defined through device +tree, ACPI, and platform data. + +Device Tree +----------- +GPIOs can easily be mapped to devices and functions in the device tree. The +exact way to do it depends on the GPIO controller providing the GPIOs, see the +device tree bindings for your controller. + +GPIOs mappings are defined in the consumer device's node, in a property named +<function>-gpios, where <function> is the function the driver will request +through gpiod_get().

Therefore, only the "idx" +argument of gpiod_get_index() is useful to discriminate between GPIOs assigned +to a device. The "con_id" argument can still be set for debugging purposes (it +will appear under error messages as well as debug and sysfs nodes). + +Platform Data +------------- +Finally, GPIOs can be bound to devices and functions using platform data. Board +files that desire to do so need to include the following header: + + #include <linux/gpio/driver.h> + +GPIOs are mapped by the means of tables of lookups, containing instances of the +gpiod_lookup structure.

Like many other kernel subsystems, gpiod_get() takes the +device that will use the GPIO and the function the requested GPIO is supposed to +fulfill: + + struct gpio_desc *gpiod_get(struct device *dev, const char *con_id) + +If a function is implemented by using several GPIOs together (e.g. a simple LED +device that displays digits), an additional index argument can be specified: + + struct gpio_desc *gpiod_get_index(struct device *dev, + const char *con_id, unsigned int idx) + +Both functions return either a valid GPIO descriptor, or an error code checkable +with IS_ERR(). They will never return a NULL pointer. + +Device-managed variants of these functions are also defined: + + struct gpio_desc *devm_gpiod_get(struct device *dev, const char *con_id) + + struct gpio_desc *devm_gpiod_get_index(struct device *dev, + const char *con_id, + unsigned int idx) + +A GPIO descriptor can be disposed of using the gpiod_put() function: + + void gpiod_put(struct gpio_desc *desc) + +It is strictly forbidden to use a descriptor after calling this function. The +device-managed variant is, unsurprisingly: + + void devm_gpiod_put(struct device *dev, struct gpio_desc *desc) + + +Using GPIOs +=========== + +Setting Direction +----------------- +The first thing a driver must do with a GPIO is setting its direction. This is +done by invoking one of the gpiod_direction_*() functions: + + int gpiod_direction_input(struct gpio_desc *desc) + int gpiod_direction_output(struct gpio_desc *desc, int value) + +The return value is zero for success, else a negative errno. It should be +checked, since the get/set calls don't return errors and since misconfiguration +is possible. You should normally issue these calls from a task context. However, +for spinlock-safe GPIOs it is OK to use them before tasking is enabled, as part +of early board setup. + +For output GPIOs, the value provided becomes the initial output value. This +helps avoid signal glitching during system startup. + +A driver can also query the current direction of a GPIO: + + int gpiod_get_direction(const struct gpio_desc *desc) + +This function will return either GPIOF_DIR_IN or GPIOF_DIR_OUT. + +Be aware that there is no default direction for GPIOs. Therefore, **using a GPIO +without setting its direction first is illegal and will result in undefined +behavior!** + + +Spinlock-Safe GPIO Access +------------------------- +Most GPIO controllers can be accessed with memory read/write instructions. Those +don't need to sleep, and can safely be done from inside hard (non-threaded) IRQ +handlers and similar contexts. + +Use the following calls to access GPIOs from an atomic context: + + int gpiod_get_value(const struct gpio_desc *desc); + void gpiod_set_value(struct gpio_desc *desc, int value); + +The values are boolean, zero for low, nonzero for high. When reading the value +of an output pin, the value returned should be what's seen on the pin. That +won't always match the specified output value, because of issues including +open-drain signaling and output latencies. + +The get/set calls do not return errors because "invalid GPIO" should have been +reported earlier from gpiod_direction_*(). However, note that not all platforms +can read the value of output pins; those that can't should always return zero. +Also, using these calls for GPIOs that can't safely be accessed without sleeping +(see below) is an error. + + +GPIO Access That May Sleep +-------------------------- +Some GPIO controllers must be accessed using message based buses like I2C or +SPI. Commands to read or write those GPIO values require waiting to get to the +head of a queue to transmit a command and get its response. This requires +sleeping, which can't be done from inside IRQ handlers. + +Platforms that support this type of GPIO distinguish them from other GPIOs by +returning nonzero from this call: + + int gpiod_cansleep(const struct gpio_desc *desc) + +To access such GPIOs, a different set of accessors is defined: + + int gpiod_get_value_cansleep(const struct gpio_desc *desc) + void gpiod_set_value_cansleep(struct gpio_desc *desc, int value) + +Accessing such GPIOs requires a context which may sleep, for example a threaded +IRQ handler, and those accessors must be used instead of spinlock-safe +accessors without the cansleep() name suffix. + +Other than the fact that these accessors might sleep, and will work on GPIOs +that can't be accessed from hardIRQ handlers, these calls act the same as the +spinlock-safe calls. + + +Active-low State and Raw GPIO Values +------------------------------------ +Device drivers like to manage the logical state of a GPIO, i.e. the value their +device will actually receive, no matter what lies between it and the GPIO line. +In some cases, it might make sense to control the actual GPIO line value. The +following set of calls ignore the active-low property of a GPIO and work on the +raw line value: + + int gpiod_get_raw_value(const struct gpio_desc *desc) + void gpiod_set_raw_value(struct gpio_desc *desc, int value) + int gpiod_get_raw_value_cansleep(const struct gpio_desc *desc) + void gpiod_set_raw_value_cansleep(struct gpio_desc *desc, int value) + +The active-low state of a GPIO can also be queried using the following call: + + int gpiod_is_active_low(const struct gpio_desc *desc) + +Note that these functions should only be used with great moderation ; a driver +should not have to care about the physical line level. + +GPIOs mapped to IRQs +-------------------- +GPIO lines can quite often be used as IRQs. You can get the IRQ number +corresponding to a given GPIO using the following call: + + int gpiod_to_irq(const struct gpio_desc *desc) + +It will return an IRQ number, or an negative errno code if the mapping can't be +done (most likely because that particular GPIO cannot be used as IRQ). It is an +unchecked error to use a GPIO that wasn't set up as an input using +gpiod_direction_input(), or to use an IRQ number that didn't originally come +from gpiod_to_irq(). gpiod_to_irq() is not allowed to sleep. + +Non-error values returned from gpiod_to_irq() can be passed to request_irq() or +free_irq(). They will often be stored into IRQ resources for platform devices, +by the board-specific initialization code. Note that IRQ trigger options are +part of the IRQ interface, e.g. IRQF_TRIGGER_FALLING, as are system wakeup +capabilities. + + +Interacting With the Legacy GPIO Subsystem +========================================== +Many kernel subsystems still handle GPIOs using the legacy integer-based +interface. Although it is strongly encouraged to upgrade them to the safer +descriptor-based API, the following two functions allow you to convert a GPIO +descriptor into the GPIO integer namespace and vice-versa: + + int desc_to_gpio(const struct gpio_desc *desc) + struct gpio_desc *gpio_to_desc(unsigned gpio) + +The GPIO number returned by desc_to_gpio() can be safely used as long as the +GPIO descriptor has not been freed. All the same, a GPIO number passed to +gpio_to_desc() must have been properly acquired, and usage of the returned GPIO +descriptor is only possible after the GPIO number has been released. + +Freeing a GPIO obtained by one API with the other API is forbidden and an +unchecked error. diff --git a/Documentation/gpio/driver.txt b/Documentation/gpio/driver.txt new file mode 100644 index 00000000000..9da0bfa7478 --- /dev/null +++ b/Documentation/gpio/driver.txt @@ -0,0 +1,75 @@ +GPIO Descriptor Driver Interface +================================ + +This document serves as a guide for GPIO chip drivers writers.

They are provided from many kinds of chip, and are familiar +to Linux developers working with embedded and custom hardware. Each GPIO +represents a bit connected to a particular pin, or "ball" on Ball Grid Array +(BGA) packages. Board schematics show which external hardware connects to +which GPIOs. Drivers can be written generically, so that board setup code +passes such pin configuration data to drivers. + +System-on-Chip (SOC) processors heavily rely on GPIOs. In some cases, every +non-dedicated pin can be configured as a GPIO; and most chips have at least +several dozen of them. Programmable logic devices (like FPGAs) can easily +provide GPIOs; multifunction chips like power managers, and audio codecs +often have a few such pins to help with pin scarcity on SOCs; and there are +also "GPIO Expander" chips that connect using the I2C or SPI serial buses. +Most PC southbridges have a few dozen GPIO-capable pins (with only the BIOS +firmware knowing how they're used). + +The exact capabilities of GPIOs vary between systems. Common options: + + - Output values are writable (high=1, low=0). Some chips also have + options about how that value is driven, so that for example only one + value might be driven, supporting "wire-OR" and similar schemes for the + other value (notably, "open drain" signaling). + + - Input values are likewise readable (1, 0). Some chips support readback + of pins configured as "output", which is very useful in such "wire-OR" + cases (to support bidirectional signaling). GPIO controllers may have + input de-glitch/debounce logic, sometimes with software controls. + + - Inputs can often be used as IRQ signals, often edge triggered but + sometimes level triggered. Such IRQs may be configurable as system + wakeup events, to wake the system from a low power state. + + - Usually a GPIO will be configurable as either input or output, as needed + by different product boards; single direction ones exist too. + + - Most GPIOs can be accessed while holding spinlocks, but those accessed + through a serial bus normally can't. Some systems support both types. + +On a given board each GPIO is used for one specific purpose like monitoring +MMC/SD card insertion/removal, detecting card write-protect status, driving +a LED, configuring a transceiver, bit-banging a serial bus, poking a hardware +watchdog, sensing a switch, and so on. + + +Common GPIO Properties +====================== + +These properties are met through all the other documents of the GPIO interface +and it is useful to understand them, especially if you need to define GPIO +mappings. + +Active-High and Active-Low +-------------------------- +It is natural to assume that a GPIO is "active" when its output signal is 1 +("high"), and inactive when it is 0 ("low"). However in practice the signal of a +GPIO may be inverted before is reaches its destination, or a device could decide +to have different conventions about what "active" means. Such decisions should +be transparent to device drivers, therefore it is possible to define a GPIO as +being either active-high ("1" means "active", the default) or active-low ("0" +means "active") so that drivers only need to worry about the logical signal and +not about what happens at the line level. + +Open Drain and Open Source +-------------------------- +Sometimes shared signals need to use "open drain" (where only the low signal +level is actually driven), or "open source" (where only the high signal level is +driven) signaling. That term applies to CMOS transistors; "open collector" is +used for TTL. A pullup or pulldown resistor causes the high or low signal level. +This is sometimes called a "wire-AND"; or more practically, from the negative +logic (low=true) perspective this is a "wire-OR". + +One common example of an open drain signal is a shared active-low IRQ line. +Also, bidirectional data bus signals sometimes use open drain signals. + +Some GPIO controllers directly support open drain and open source outputs; many +don't. When you need open drain signaling but your hardware doesn't directly +support it, there's a common idiom you can use to emulate it with any GPIO pin +that can be used as either an input or an output: + + LOW: gpiod_direction_output(gpio, 0) ... this drives the signal and overrides + the pullup. + + HIGH: gpiod_direction_input(gpio) ... this turns off the output, so the pullup + (or some other device) controls the signal. + +The same logic can be applied to emulate open source signaling, by driving the +high signal and configuring the GPIO as input for low. This open drain/open +source emulation can be handled transparently by the GPIO framework. + +If you are "driving" the signal high but gpiod_get_value(gpio) reports a low +value (after the appropriate rise time passes), you know some other component is +driving the shared signal low. That's not necessarily an error. As one common +example, that's how I2C clocks are stretched: a slave that needs a slower clock +delays the rising edge of SCK, and the I2C master adjusts its signaling rate +accordingly. diff --git a/Documentation/gpio/sysfs.txt b/Documentation/gpio/sysfs.txt new file mode 100644 index 00000000000..c2c3a97f8ff --- /dev/null +++ b/Documentation/gpio/sysfs.txt @@ -0,0 +1,155 @@ +GPIO Sysfs Interface for Userspace +================================== + +Platforms which use the "gpiolib" implementors framework may choose to +configure a sysfs user interface to GPIOs.

This +allows increased kernel security by disallowing the loading of unsigned modules +or modules signed with an invalid key. Module signing increases security by +making it harder to load a malicious module into the kernel. The module +signature checking is done by the kernel so that it is not necessary to have +trusted userspace bits. + +This facility uses X.509 ITU-T standard certificates to encode the public keys +involved. The signatures are not themselves encoded in any industrial standard +type. The facility currently only supports the RSA public key encryption +standard (though it is pluggable and permits others to be used). The possible +hash algorithms that can be used are SHA-1, SHA-224, SHA-256, SHA-384, and +SHA-512 (the algorithm is selected by data in the signature). + + +========================== +CONFIGURING MODULE SIGNING +========================== + +The module signing facility is enabled by going to the "Enable Loadable Module +Support" section of the kernel configuration and turning on + + CONFIG_MODULE_SIG "Module signature verification" + +This has a number of options available: + + (1) "Require modules to be validly signed" (CONFIG_MODULE_SIG_FORCE) + + This specifies how the kernel should deal with a module that has a + signature for which the key is not known or a module that is unsigned. + + If this is off (ie.

All other modules will generate an error. + + Irrespective of the setting here, if the module has a signature block that + cannot be parsed, it will be rejected out of hand. + + + (2) "Automatically sign all modules" (CONFIG_MODULE_SIG_ALL) + + If this is on then modules will be automatically signed during the + modules_install phase of a build.

A +private key is used to generate a signature and the corresponding public key is +used to check it. The private key is only needed during the build, after which +it can be deleted or stored securely. The public key gets built into the +kernel so that it can be used to check the signatures as the modules are +loaded. + +Under normal conditions, the kernel build will automatically generate a new +keypair using openssl if one does not exist in the files: + + signing_key.priv + signing_key.x509 + +during the building of vmlinux (the public part of the key needs to be built +into vmlinux) using parameters in the: + + x509.genkey + +file (which is also generated if it does not already exist). + +It is strongly recommended that you provide your own x509.genkey file. + +Most notably, in the x509.genkey file, the req_distinguished_name section +should be altered from the default: + + [ req_distinguished_name ] + O = Magrathea + CN = Glacier signing key + emailAddress = slartibartfast@magrathea.h2g2 + +The generated RSA key size can also be set with: + + [ req ] + default_bits = 4096 + + +It is also possible to manually generate the key private/public files using the +x509.genkey key generation configuration file in the root node of the Linux +kernel sources tree and the openssl command. The following is an example to +generate the public/private key files: + + openssl req -new -nodes -utf8 -sha256 -days 36500 -batch -x509 \ + -config x509.genkey -outform DER -out signing_key.x509 \ + -keyout signing_key.priv + + +========================= +PUBLIC KEYS IN THE KERNEL +========================= + +The kernel contains a ring of public keys that can be viewed by root. They're +in a keyring called ".system_keyring" that can be seen by: + + [root@deneb ~]# cat /proc/keys + ... + 223c7853 I------ 1 perm 1f030000 0 0 keyring .system_keyring: 1 + 302d2d52 I------ 1 perm 1f010000 0 0 asymmetri Fedora kernel signing key: d69a84e6bce3d216b979e9505b3e3ef9a7118079: X509.RSA a7118079 [] + ... + +Beyond the public key generated specifically for module signing, any file +placed in the kernel source root directory or the kernel build root directory +whose name is suffixed with ".x509" will be assumed to be an X.509 public key +and will be added to the keyring. + +Further, the architecture code may take public keys from a hardware store and +add those in also (e.g. from the UEFI key database). + +Finally, it is possible to add additional public keys by doing: + + keyctl padd asymmetric "" [.system_keyring-ID] <[key-file] + +e.g.: + + keyctl padd asymmetric "" 0x223c7853 <my_public_key.x509 + +Note, however, that the kernel will only permit keys to be added to +.system_keyring _if_ the new key's X.509 wrapper is validly signed by a key +that is already resident in the .system_keyring at the time the key was added. + + +========================= +MANUALLY SIGNING MODULES +========================= + +To manually sign a module, use the scripts/sign-file tool available in +the Linux kernel source tree. The script requires 4 arguments: + + 1. The hash algorithm (e.g., sha256) + 2. The private key filename + 3. The public key filename + 4. The kernel module to be signed + +The following is an example to sign a kernel module: + + scripts/sign-file sha512 kernel-signkey.priv \ + kernel-signkey.x509 module.ko + +The hash algorithm used does not have to match the one configured, but if it +doesn't, you should make sure that hash algorithm is either built into the +kernel or can be loaded without requiring itself. + + +============================ +SIGNED MODULES AND STRIPPING +============================ + +A signed module has a digital signature simply appended at the end. The string +"~Module signature appended~." at the end of the module's file confirms that a +signature is present but it does not confirm that the signature is valid! + +Signed modules are BRITTLE as the signature is outside of the defined ELF +container. Thus they MAY NOT be stripped once the signature is computed and +attached. Note the entire module is the signed payload, including any and all +debug information present at the time of signing. + + +====================== +LOADING SIGNED MODULES +====================== + +Modules are loaded with insmod, modprobe, init_module() or finit_module(), +exactly as for unsigned modules as no processing is done in userspace. The +signature checking is all done within the kernel. + + +========================================= +NON-VALID SIGNATURES AND UNSIGNED MODULES +========================================= + +If CONFIG_MODULE_SIG_FORCE is enabled or enforcemodulesig=1 is supplied on +the kernel command line, the kernel will only load validly signed modules +for which it has a public key. Otherwise, it will also load modules that are +unsigned. Any module for which the kernel has a key, but which proves to have +a signature mismatch will not be permitted to load. + +Any module that has an unparseable signature will be rejected. + + +========================================= +ADMINISTERING/PROTECTING THE PRIVATE KEY +========================================= + +Since the private key is used to sign modules, viruses and malware could use +the private key to sign modules and compromise the operating system. The +private key must be either destroyed or moved to a secure location and not kept +in the root node of the kernel source tree. diff --git a/Documentation/networking/ip-sysctl.txt b/Documentation/networking/ip-sysctl.txt index 3c12d9a7ed0..8a984e994e6 100644 --- a/Documentation/networking/ip-sysctl.txt +++ b/Documentation/networking/ip-sysctl.txt @@ -16,8 +16,12 @@ ip_default_ttl - INTEGER Default: 64 (as recommended by RFC1700) ip_no_pmtu_disc - BOOLEAN - Disable Path MTU Discovery. - default FALSE + Disable Path MTU Discovery.
