ESP-NETIF Custom I/O Driver
|
|
===========================
|
|
|
|
This section outlines implementing a new I/O driver with esp-netif connection capabilities.
|
|
By convention the I/O driver has to register itself as an esp-netif driver and thus holds a dependency on esp-netif component
|
|
and is responsible for providing data path functions, post-attach callback and in most cases also default event handlers to define network interface
|
|
actions based on driver's lifecycle transitions.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Packet input/output
|
|
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
|
|
|
|
As shown in the diagram, the following three API functions for the packet data path must be defined for connecting with esp-netif:
|
|
|
|
* :cpp:func:`esp_netif_transmit()`
|
|
* :cpp:func:`esp_netif_free_rx_buffer()`
|
|
* :cpp:func:`esp_netif_receive()`
|
|
|
|
The first two functions for transmitting and freeing the rx buffer are provided as callbacks, i.e. they get called from
|
|
esp-netif (and its underlying TCP/IP stack) and I/O driver provides their implementation.
|
|
|
|
The receiving function on the other hand gets called from the I/O driver, so that the driver's code simply calls :cpp:func:`esp_netif_receive()`
|
|
on a new data received event.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Post attach callback
|
|
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
|
|
|
|
A final part of the network interface initialization consists of attaching the esp-netif instance to the I/O driver, by means
|
|
of calling the following API:
|
|
|
|
.. code:: c
|
|
|
|
esp_err_t esp_netif_attach(esp_netif_t *esp_netif, esp_netif_iodriver_handle driver_handle);
|
|
|
|
It is assumed that the ``esp_netif_iodriver_handle`` is a pointer to driver's object, a struct derived from ``struct esp_netif_driver_base_s``,
|
|
so that the first member of I/O driver structure must be this base structure with pointers to
|
|
|
|
* post-attach function callback
|
|
* related esp-netif instance
|
|
|
|
As a consequence the I/O driver has to create an instance of the struct per below:
|
|
|
|
.. code:: c
|
|
|
|
typedef struct my_netif_driver_s {
|
|
esp_netif_driver_base_t base; /*!< base structure reserved as esp-netif driver */
|
|
driver_impl *h; /*!< handle of driver implementation */
|
|
} my_netif_driver_t;
|
|
|
|
with actual values of ``my_netif_driver_t::base.post_attach`` and the actual drivers handle ``my_netif_driver_t::h``.
|
|
So when the :cpp:func:`esp_netif_attach()` gets called from the initialization code, the post-attach callback from I/O driver's code
|
|
gets executed to mutually register callbacks between esp-netif and I/O driver instances. Typically the driver is started
|
|
as well in the post-attach callback. An example of a simple post-attach callback is outlined below:
|
|
|
|
.. code:: c
|
|
|
|
static esp_err_t my_post_attach_start(esp_netif_t * esp_netif, void * args)
|
|
{
|
|
my_netif_driver_t *driver = args;
|
|
const esp_netif_driver_ifconfig_t driver_ifconfig = {
|
|
.driver_free_rx_buffer = my_free_rx_buf,
|
|
.transmit = my_transmit,
|
|
.handle = driver->driver_impl
|
|
};
|
|
driver->base.netif = esp_netif;
|
|
ESP_ERROR_CHECK(esp_netif_set_driver_config(esp_netif, &driver_ifconfig));
|
|
my_driver_start(driver->driver_impl);
|
|
return ESP_OK;
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
|
|
Default handlers
|
|
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
|
|
|
|
I/O drivers also typically provide default definitions of lifecycle behaviour of related network interfaces based
|
|
on state transitions of I/O drivers. For example *driver start* ``->`` *network start*, etc.
|
|
An example of such a default handler is provided below:
|
|
|
|
.. code:: c
|
|
|
|
esp_err_t my_driver_netif_set_default_handlers(my_netif_driver_t *driver, esp_netif_t * esp_netif)
|
|
{
|
|
driver_set_event_handler(driver->driver_impl, esp_netif_action_start, MY_DRV_EVENT_START, esp_netif);
|
|
driver_set_event_handler(driver->driver_impl, esp_netif_action_stop, MY_DRV_EVENT_STOP, esp_netif);
|
|
return ESP_OK;
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
|
|
Network stack connection
|
|
------------------------
|
|
|
|
The packet data path functions for transmitting and freeing the rx buffer (defined in the I/O driver) are called from
|
|
the esp-netif, specifically from its TCP/IP stack connecting layer. The following API reference outlines these network stack
|
|
interaction with the esp-netif.
