14/*
15 * Initial driver API (1996 -> onward) :
16 * -----------------------------------
17 * The initial API just sends the IOCTL request received from user space
18 * to the driver (via the driver ioctl handler). The driver has to
19 * handle all the rest...
20 *
21 * The initial API also defines a specific handler in struct net_device
22 * to handle wireless statistics.
23 *
24 * The initial APIs served us well and has proven a reasonably good design.
25 * However, there is a few shortcommings :
26 * o No events, everything is a request to the driver.
27 * o Large ioctl function in driver with gigantic switch statement
28 * (i.e. spaghetti code).
29 * o Driver has to mess up with copy_to/from_user, and in many cases
30 * does it unproperly. Common mistakes are :
31 * * buffer overflows (no checks or off by one checks)
32 * * call copy_to/from_user with irq disabled
33 * o The user space interface is tied to ioctl because of the use
34 * copy_to/from_user.
35 *
36 * New driver API (2002 -> onward) :
37 * -------------------------------
38 * The new driver API is just a bunch of standard functions (handlers),
39 * each handling a specific Wireless Extension. The driver just export
40 * the list of handler it supports, and those will be called apropriately.
41 *
42 * I tried to keep the main advantage of the previous API (simplicity,
43 * efficiency and light weight), and also I provide a good dose of backward
44 * compatibility (most structures are the same, driver can use both API
45 * simultaneously, ...).
46 * Hopefully, I've also addressed the shortcomming of the initial API.
47 *
48 * The advantage of the new API are :
49 * o Handling of Extensions in driver broken in small contained functions
50 * o Tighter checks of ioctl before calling the driver
51 * o Flexible commit strategy (at least, the start of it)
52 * o Backward compatibility (can be mixed with old API)
53 * o Driver doesn't have to worry about memory and user-space issues
54 * The last point is important for the following reasons :
55 * o You are now able to call the new driver API from any API you
56 * want (including from within other parts of the kernel).
57 * o Common mistakes are avoided (buffer overflow, user space copy
58 * with irq disabled and so on).
59 *
60 * The Drawback of the new API are :
61 * o bloat (especially kernel)
62 * o need to migrate existing drivers to new API
63 * My initial testing shows that the new API adds around 3kB to the kernel
64 * and save between 0 and 5kB from a typical driver.
65 * Also, as all structures and data types are unchanged, the migration is
66 * quite straightforward (but tedious).
67 *
68 * ---
69 *
70 * The new driver API is defined below in this file. User space should
71 * not be aware of what's happening down there...
72 *
73 * A new kernel wrapper is in charge of validating the IOCTLs and calling
74 * the appropriate driver handler. This is implemented in :
75 * # net/core/wireless.c
76 *
77 * The driver export the list of handlers in :
78 * # include/linux/netdevice.h (one place)
79 *
80 * The new driver API is available for WIRELESS_EXT >= 13.
81 * Good luck with migration to the new API ;-)
82 */
83
84/* ---------------------- THE IMPLEMENTATION ---------------------- */
85/*
86 * Some of the choice I've made are pretty controversials. Defining an
87 * API is very much weighting compromises. This goes into some of the
88 * details and the thinking behind the implementation.
89 *
90 * Implementation goals :
91 * --------------------
92 * The implementation goals were as follow :
93 * o Obvious : you should not need a PhD to understand what's happening,
94 * the benefit is easier maintainance.
95 * o Flexible : it should accommodate a wide variety of driver
96 * implementations and be as flexible as the old API.
97 * o Lean : it should be efficient memory wise to minimise the impact
98 * on kernel footprint.
99 * o Transparent to user space : the large number of user space
100 * applications that use Wireless Extensions should not need
101 * any modifications.
102 *
103 * Array of functions versus Struct of functions
104 * ---------------------------------------------
105 * 1) Having an array of functions allow the kernel code to access the
106 * handler in a single lookup, which is much more efficient (think hash
107 * table here).
108 * 2) The only drawback is that driver writer may put their handler in
109 * the wrong slot. This is trivial to test (I set the frequency, the
110 * bitrate changes). Once the handler is in the proper slot, it will be
111 * there forever, because the array is only extended at the end.
112 * 3) Backward/forward compatibility : adding new handler just require
113 * extending the array, so you can put newer driver in older kernel
114 * without having to patch the kernel code (and vice versa).
115 *
116 * All handler are of the same generic type
117 * ----------------------------------------
118 * That's a feature !!!
119 * 1) Having a generic handler allow to have generic code, which is more
120 * efficient. If each of the handler was individually typed I would need
121 * to add a big switch in the kernel (== more bloat). This solution is
122 * more scalable, adding new Wireless Extensions doesn't add new code.
123 * 2) You can use the same handler in different slots of the array. For
124 * hardware, it may be more efficient or logical to handle multiple
125 * Wireless Extensions with a single function, and the API allow you to
126 * do that. (An example would be a single record on the card to control
127 * both bitrate and frequency, the handler would read the old record,
128 * modify it according to info->cmd and rewrite it).
129 *
130 * Functions prototype uses union iwreq_data
131 * -----------------------------------------
132 * Some would have prefered functions defined this way :
133 * static int mydriver_ioctl_setrate(struct net_device *dev,
134 * long rate, int auto)
135 * 1) The kernel code doesn't "validate" the content of iwreq_data, and
136 * can't do it (different hardware may have different notion of what a
137 * valid frequency is), so we don't pretend that we do it.
138 * 2) The above form is not extendable. If I want to add a flag (for
139 * example to distinguish setting max rate and basic rate), I would
140 * break the prototype. Using iwreq_data is more flexible.
141 * 3) Also, the above form is not generic (see above).
142 * 4) I don't expect driver developper using the wrong field of the
143 * union (Doh !), so static typechecking doesn't add much value.
144 * 5) Lastly, you can skip the union by doing :
145 * static int mydriver_ioctl_setrate(struct net_device *dev,
146 * struct iw_request_info *info,
147 * struct iw_param *rrq,
148 * char *extra)
149 * And then adding the handler in the array like this :
150 * (iw_handler) mydriver_ioctl_setrate, // SIOCSIWRATE
151 *
152 * Using functions and not a registry
153 * ----------------------------------
154 * Another implementation option would have been for every instance to
155 * define a registry (a struct containing all the Wireless Extensions)
156 * and only have a function to commit the registry to the hardware.
157 * 1) This approach can be emulated by the current code, but not
158 * vice versa.
159 * 2) Some drivers don't keep any configuration in the driver, for them
160 * adding such a registry would be a significant bloat.
161 * 3) The code to translate from Wireless Extension to native format is
162 * needed anyway, so it would not reduce significantely the amount of code.
163 * 4) The current approach only selectively translate Wireless Extensions
164 * to native format and only selectively set, whereas the registry approach
165 * would require to translate all WE and set all parameters for any single
166 * change.
167 * 5) For many Wireless Extensions, the GET operation return the current
168 * dynamic value, not the value that was set.
169 *
170 * This header is <net/iw_handler.h>
171 * ---------------------------------
172 * 1) This header is kernel space only and should not be exported to
173 * user space. Headers in "include/linux/" are exported, headers in
174 * "include/net/" are not.
175 *
176 * Mixed 32/64 bit issues
177 * ----------------------
178 * The Wireless Extensions are designed to be 64 bit clean, by using only
179 * datatypes with explicit storage size.
180 * There are some issues related to kernel and user space using different
181 * memory model, and in particular 64bit kernel with 32bit user space.
182 * The problem is related to struct iw_point, that contains a pointer
183 * that *may* need to be translated.
184 * This is quite messy. The new API doesn't solve this problem (it can't),
185 * but is a step in the right direction :
186 * 1) Meta data about each ioctl is easily available, so we know what type
187 * of translation is needed.
188 * 2) The move of data between kernel and user space is only done in a single
189 * place in the kernel, so adding specific hooks in there is possible.
190 * 3) In the long term, it allows to move away from using ioctl as the
191 * user space API.
192 *
193 * So many comments and so few code
194 * --------------------------------
195 * That's a feature. Comments won't bloat the resulting kernel binary.
