Programming gameport drivers
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
|
|
A basic classic gameport
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
|
|
If the gameport doesn't provide more than the inb()/outb() functionality,
|
|
the code needed to register it with the joystick drivers is simple::
|
|
|
|
struct gameport gameport;
|
|
|
|
gameport.io = MY_IO_ADDRESS;
|
|
gameport_register_port(&gameport);
|
|
|
|
Make sure struct gameport is initialized to 0 in all other fields. The
|
|
gameport generic code will take care of the rest.
|
|
|
|
If your hardware supports more than one io address, and your driver can
|
|
choose which one to program the hardware to, starting from the more exotic
|
|
addresses is preferred, because the likelihood of clashing with the standard
|
|
0x201 address is smaller.
|
|
|
|
E.g. if your driver supports addresses 0x200, 0x208, 0x210 and 0x218, then
|
|
0x218 would be the address of first choice.
|
|
|
|
If your hardware supports a gameport address that is not mapped to ISA io
|
|
space (is above 0x1000), use that one, and don't map the ISA mirror.
|
|
|
|
Also, always request_region() on the whole io space occupied by the
|
|
gameport. Although only one ioport is really used, the gameport usually
|
|
occupies from one to sixteen addresses in the io space.
|
|
|
|
Please also consider enabling the gameport on the card in the ->open()
|
|
callback if the io is mapped to ISA space - this way it'll occupy the io
|
|
space only when something really is using it. Disable it again in the
|
|
->close() callback. You also can select the io address in the ->open()
|
|
callback, so that it doesn't fail if some of the possible addresses are
|
|
already occupied by other gameports.
|
|
|
|
Memory mapped gameport
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
|
|
When a gameport can be accessed through MMIO, this way is preferred, because
|
|
it is faster, allowing more reads per second. Registering such a gameport
|
|
isn't as easy as a basic IO one, but not so much complex::
|
|
|
|
struct gameport gameport;
|
|
|
|
void my_trigger(struct gameport *gameport)
|
|
{
|
|
my_mmio = 0xff;
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
unsigned char my_read(struct gameport *gameport)
|
|
{
|
|
return my_mmio;
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
gameport.read = my_read;
|
|
gameport.trigger = my_trigger;
|
|
gameport_register_port(&gameport);
|
|
|
|
.. _gameport_pgm_cooked_mode:
|
|
|
|
Cooked mode gameport
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
|
|
There are gameports that can report the axis values as numbers, that means
|
|
the driver doesn't have to measure them the old way - an ADC is built into
|
|
the gameport. To register a cooked gameport::
|
|
|
|
struct gameport gameport;
|
|
|
|
int my_cooked_read(struct gameport *gameport, int *axes, int *buttons)
|
|
{
|
|
int i;
|
|
|
|
for (i = 0; i < 4; i++)
|
|
axes[i] = my_mmio[i];
|
|
buttons[0] = my_mmio[4];
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
int my_open(struct gameport *gameport, int mode)
|
|
{
|
|
return -(mode != GAMEPORT_MODE_COOKED);
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
gameport.cooked_read = my_cooked_read;
|
|
gameport.open = my_open;
|
|
gameport.fuzz = 8;
|
|
gameport_register_port(&gameport);
|
|
|
|
The only confusing thing here is the fuzz value. Best determined by
|
|
experimentation, it is the amount of noise in the ADC data. Perfect
|
|
gameports can set this to zero, most common have fuzz between 8 and 32.
|
|
See analog.c and input.c for handling of fuzz - the fuzz value determines
|
|
the size of a gaussian filter window that is used to eliminate the noise
|
|
in the data.
|
|
|
|
More complex gameports
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
|
|
Gameports can support both raw and cooked modes. In that case combine either
|
|
examples 1+2 or 1+3. Gameports can support internal calibration - see below,
|
|
and also lightning.c and analog.c on how that works. If your driver supports
|
|
more than one gameport instance simultaneously, use the ->private member of
|
|
the gameport struct to point to your data.
|
|
|
|
Unregistering a gameport
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
|
|
Simple::
|
|
|
|
gameport_unregister_port(&gameport);
|
|
|
|
The gameport structure
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
|
|
::
|
|
|
|
struct gameport {
|
|
|
|
void *port_data;
|
|
|
|
A private pointer for free use in the gameport driver. (Not the joystick
|
|
driver!)
|
|
|
|
::
|
|
|
|
char name[32];
|
|
|
|
Driver's name as set by driver calling gameport_set_name(). Informational
|
|
purpose only.
|
|
|
|
::
|
|
|
|
char phys[32];
|
|
|
|
gameport's physical name/description as set by driver calling gameport_set_phys().
|
|
Informational purpose only.
|
|
|
|
::
|
|
|
|
int io;
|
|
|
|
I/O address for use with raw mode. You have to either set this, or ->read()
|
|
to some value if your gameport supports raw mode.
|
|
|
|
::
|
|
|
|
int speed;
|
|
|
|
Raw mode speed of the gameport reads in thousands of reads per second.
|
|
|
|
::
|
|
|
|
int fuzz;
|
|
|
|
If the gameport supports cooked mode, this should be set to a value that
|
|
represents the amount of noise in the data. See
|
|
:ref:`gameport_pgm_cooked_mode`.
|
|
|
|
::
|
|
|
|
void (*trigger)(struct gameport *);
|
|
|
|
Trigger. This function should trigger the ns558 oneshots. If set to NULL,
|
|
outb(0xff, io) will be used.
|
|
|
|
::
|
|
|
|
unsigned char (*read)(struct gameport *);
|
|
|
|
Read the buttons and ns558 oneshot bits. If set to NULL, inb(io) will be
|
|
used instead.
|
|
|
|
::
|
|
|
|
int (*cooked_read)(struct gameport *, int *axes, int *buttons);
|
|
|
|
If the gameport supports cooked mode, it should point this to its cooked
|
|
read function. It should fill axes[0..3] with four values of the joystick axes
|
|
and buttons[0] with four bits representing the buttons.
|
|
|
|
::
|
|
|
|
int (*calibrate)(struct gameport *, int *axes, int *max);
|
|
|
|
Function for calibrating the ADC hardware. When called, axes[0..3] should be
|
|
pre-filled by cooked data by the caller, max[0..3] should be pre-filled with
|
|
expected maximums for each axis. The calibrate() function should set the
|
|
sensitivity of the ADC hardware so that the maximums fit in its range and
|
|
recompute the axes[] values to match the new sensitivity or re-read them from
|
|
the hardware so that they give valid values.
|
|
|
|
::
|
|
|
|
int (*open)(struct gameport *, int mode);
|
|
|
|
Open() serves two purposes. First a driver either opens the port in raw or
|
|
in cooked mode, the open() callback can decide which modes are supported.
|
|
Second, resource allocation can happen here. The port can also be enabled
|
|
here. Prior to this call, other fields of the gameport struct (namely the io
|
|
member) need not to be valid.
|
|
|
|
::
|
|
|
|
void (*close)(struct gameport *);
|
|
|
|
Close() should free the resources allocated by open, possibly disabling the
|
|
gameport.
|
|
|
|
::
|
|
|
|
struct timer_list poll_timer;
|
|
unsigned int poll_interval; /* in msecs */
|
|
spinlock_t timer_lock;
|
|
unsigned int poll_cnt;
|
|
void (*poll_handler)(struct gameport *);
|
|
struct gameport *parent, *child;
|
|
struct gameport_driver *drv;
|
|
struct mutex drv_mutex; /* protects serio->drv so attributes can pin driver */
|
|
struct device dev;
|
|
struct list_head node;
|
|
|
|
For internal use by the gameport layer.
|
