  3 Description 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 
 42 1. 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.
145 
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 
210 2. 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.

273       command     = ISDN_CMD_ACCEPTD
274       arg         = channel-number locally to the driver. (starting with 0)

308       arg         = channel-number locally to the driver. (starting with 0)
309       parm        = unused.
310 
311   ISDN_CMD_SETEAZ:
312

320       parm.num    = ASCII-String, containing the desired EAZ's/MSN's
321                     (comma-separated). If an empty String is given, the
322                     HL-driver should respond to ALL incoming calls,
323                     regardless of the destination-address.
324       ***CHANGE0.6: New since this version the "empty-string"-feature.

573   ISDN_STAT_BCONN:
574 
575    With this call, the HL-driver signals the successful establishment of
576    a B-Channel-connection. (Response to ISDN_CMD_ACCEPTB or because the
577    remote-station has initiated establishment)
578 
579    The HL driver should call this when the logical l2/l3 protocol 
580    connection on top of the physical B-channel is established.
581 
582     Parameter:

647 
648     Parameter:
649       driver      = driver-Id
650       command     = ISDN_STAT_BSENT
651       arg         = channel-number, locally to the driver. (starting with 0)
652       parm.length = ***CHANGEI.1.21: New field.
653                     the driver has to set this to the original length
654                     of the skb at the time of receiving it from the linklevel.
655 
656   ISDN_STAT_NODCH:

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
678       arg         = number of channels to be added.
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:
700       driver      = driver-Id
701       command     = ISDN_STAT_DISPLAY
702       arg         = channel-number, locally to the driver. (starting with 0)
703       para.display= string containing DISPLAY-message.
704 
705   ISDN_STAT_PROT:
706 
707     With this call, the HL-driver delivers protocol specific infos to the LL.
708     The call is not implicitely bound to a connection.
709 
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)

737 
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.
