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.

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

289	
290	    With this command, the HL-driver is told to hangup (B-Channel if
291	    established first, then D-Channel). This command is also used for
292	    actively rejecting an incoming call.
293

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.

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

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

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

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.
748			    ISDN_STAT_L1ERR_RECV:     Packet lost while receiving.
