The UCAN Protocol
|
|
=================
|
|
|
|
UCAN is the protocol used by the microcontroller-based USB-CAN
|
|
adapter that is integrated on System-on-Modules from Theobroma Systems
|
|
and that is also available as a standalone USB stick.
|
|
|
|
The UCAN protocol has been designed to be hardware-independent.
|
|
It is modeled closely after how Linux represents CAN devices
|
|
internally. All multi-byte integers are encoded as Little Endian.
|
|
|
|
All structures mentioned in this document are defined in
|
|
``drivers/net/can/usb/ucan.c``.
|
|
|
|
USB Endpoints
|
|
=============
|
|
|
|
UCAN devices use three USB endpoints:
|
|
|
|
CONTROL endpoint
|
|
The driver sends device management commands on this endpoint
|
|
|
|
IN endpoint
|
|
The device sends CAN data frames and CAN error frames
|
|
|
|
OUT endpoint
|
|
The driver sends CAN data frames on the out endpoint
|
|
|
|
|
|
CONTROL Messages
|
|
================
|
|
|
|
UCAN devices are configured using vendor requests on the control pipe.
|
|
|
|
To support multiple CAN interfaces in a single USB device all
|
|
configuration commands target the corresponding interface in the USB
|
|
descriptor.
|
|
|
|
The driver uses ``ucan_ctrl_command_in/out`` and
|
|
``ucan_device_request_in`` to deliver commands to the device.
|
|
|
|

IN Message Format
|
|
=================
|
|
|
|
A data packet on the USB IN endpoint contains one or more
|
|
``ucan_message_in`` values. If multiple messages are batched in a USB
|
|
data packet, the ``len`` field can be used to jump to the next
|
|
``ucan_message_in`` value (take care to sanity-check the ``len`` value
|
|
against the actual data size).
|
|
|
|
.. _can_ucan_in_message_len:
|
|
|
|
``len`` field
|
|
-------------
|
|
|
|
Each ``ucan_message_in`` must be aligned to a 4-byte boundary (relative
|
|
to the start of the start of the data buffer). That means that there
|
|
may be padding bytes between multiple ``ucan_message_in`` values:
|
|
|
|
.. code::
|
|
|
|
+----------------------------+ < 0
|
|
| |
|
|
| struct ucan_message_in |
|
|
| |
|
|
+----------------------------+ < len
|
|
[padding]
|
|
+----------------------------+ < round_up(len, 4)
|
|
| |
|
|
| struct ucan_message_in |
|
|
| |
|
|
+----------------------------+
|
|
[...]
|
|
|
|
``type`` field
|
|
--------------
|
|
|
|
The ``type`` field specifies the type of the message.
|
|
|
|
UCAN_IN_RX
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
|
|
``subtype``
|
|
zero
|
|
|
|
Data received from the CAN bus (ID + payload).
|
|
|
|
UCAN_IN_TX_COMPLETE
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
|
|
``subtype``
|
|
zero
|
|
|
|
The CAN device has sent a message to the CAN bus. It answers with a
|
|
list of tuples <echo-ids, flags>.
|
|
|
|
The echo-id identifies the frame from (echos the id from a previous
|
|
UCAN_OUT_TX message). The flag indicates the result of the
|
|
transmission. Whereas a set Bit 0 indicates success. All other bits
|
|
are reserved and set to zero.
|
|
|
|
Flow Control
|
|
------------
|
|
|
|
When receiving CAN messages there is no flow control on the USB
|
|
buffer. The driver has to handle inbound message quickly enough to
|
|
avoid drops. I case the device buffer overflow the condition is
|
|
reported by sending corresponding error frames (see
|
|
:ref:`can_ucan_error_handling`)
|
|
|
|
|
|
OUT Message Format
|
|
==================
|
|
|
|
A data packet on the USB OUT endpoint contains one or more ``struct
|
|
ucan_message_out`` values. If multiple messages are batched into one
|
|
data packet, the device uses the ``len`` field to jump to the next
|
|
ucan_message_out value. Each ucan_message_out must be aligned to 4
|
|
bytes (relative to the start of the data buffer). The mechanism is
|
|
same as described in :ref:`can_ucan_in_message_len`.
|
|
|
|
.. code::
|
|
|
|
+----------------------------+ < 0
|
|
| |
|
|
| struct ucan_message_out |
|
|
| |
|
|
+----------------------------+ < len
|
|
[padding]
|
|
+----------------------------+ < round_up(len, 4)
|
|
| |
|
|
| struct ucan_message_out |
|
|
| |
|
|
+----------------------------+
|
|
[...]
|
|
|
|
``type`` field
|
|
--------------
|
|
|
|
In protocol version 3 only ``UCAN_OUT_TX`` is defined, others are used
|
|
only by legacy devices (protocol version 1).
|
|
|
|
UCAN_OUT_TX
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
``subtype``
|
|
echo id to be replied within a CAN_IN_TX_COMPLETE message
|
|
|
|
Transmit a CAN frame. (parameters: ``id``, ``data``)
|
|
|
|
Flow Control
|
|
------------
|
|
|
|
When the device outbound buffers are full it starts sending *NAKs* on
|
|
the *OUT* pipe until more buffers are available. The driver stops the
|
|
queue when a certain threshold of out packets are incomplete.
|
|
|

|
|
|
CAN Error Handling
|
|
==================
|
|
|
|
If error reporting is turned on the device encodes errors into CAN
|
|
error frames (see ``uapi/linux/can/error.h``) and sends it using the
|
|
IN endpoint. The driver updates its error statistics and forwards
|
|
it.
|
|
|
|
Although UCAN devices can suppress error frames completely, in Linux
|
|
the driver is always interested. Hence, the device is always started with
|
|
the ``UCAN_MODE_BERR_REPORT`` set. Filtering those messages for the
|
|
user space is done by the driver.
|
|
|
|
Bus OFF
|
|
-------
|
|
|
|
- The device does not recover from bus of automatically.
|
|
- Bus OFF is indicated by an error frame (see ``uapi/linux/can/error.h``)
|
|
- Bus OFF recovery is started by ``UCAN_COMMAND_RESTART``
|
|
- Once Bus OFF recover is completed the device sends an error frame
|
|
indicating that it is on ERROR-ACTIVE state.
|
|
- During Bus OFF no frames are sent by the device.
|
|
- During Bus OFF transmission requests from the host are completed
|
|
immediately with the success bit left unset.
