    u8 (*set_pullup)(void *, int);
    void (*search)(void *, struct w1_master *, u8, w1_slave_found_callback);
    char *dev_id;
};

Members

data

the first parameter in all the functions below

read_bit

Sample the line level return the level read (0 or 1)

write_bit

Sets the line level

touch_bit

the lowest-level function for devices that really support the 1-wire protocol. touch_bit(0) = write-0 cycle touch_bit(1) = write-1 / read cycle return the bit read (0 or 1)

read_byte

Reads a bytes. Same as 8 touch_bit(1) calls. return the byte read

write_byte

Writes a byte. Same as 8 touch_bit(x) calls.

read_block

Same as a series of read_byte() calls return the number of bytes read

write_block

Same as a series of write_byte() calls

triplet

Combines two reads and a smart write for ROM searches return bit0=Id bit1=comp_id bit2=dir_taken

reset_bus

long write-0 with a read for the presence pulse detection return -1=Error, 0=Device present, 1=No device present

set_pullup

Put out a strong pull-up pulse of the specified duration. return -1=Error, 0=completed

search

Really nice hardware can handles the different types of ROM search w1_master* is passed to the slave found callback. u8 is search_type, W1_SEARCH or W1_ALARM_SEARCH

dev_id

Optional device id string, which w1 slaves could use for creating names, which then give a connection to the w1 master

Note

read_bit and write_bit are very low level functions and should only be used with hardware that doesn't really support 1-wire operations, like a parallel/serial port. Either define read_bit and write_bit OR define, at minimum, touch_bit and reset_bus.

module_w1_family

module_w1_family (__w1_family)

Helper macro for registering a 1-Wire families

Parameters

__w1_family

w1_family struct

Description

Helper macro for 1-Wire families which do not do anything special in module init/exit. This eliminates a lot of boilerplate. Each module may only use this macro once, and calling it replaces module_init() and module_exit()

drivers/w1/w1.c

W1 core functions.

Performs a ROM Search & registers any devices found.

Parameters

struct w1_master *dev

The master device to search

u8 search_type

W1_SEARCH to search all devices, or W1_ALARM_SEARCH to return only devices in the alarmed state

w1_slave_found_callback cb

Function to call when a device is found

Description

The 1-wire search is a simple binary tree search. For each bit of the address, we read two bits and write one bit. The bit written will put to sleep all devies that don't match that bit. When the two reads differ, the direction choice is obvious. When both bits are 0, we must choose a path to take. When we can scan all 64 bits without having to choose a path, we are done.

See "Application note 187 1-wire search algorithm" at www.maxim-ic.com

Writes a series of bytes.

Parameters

struct w1_master *dev

the master device

const u8 *buf

pointer to the data to write

int len

the number of bytes to write

void w1_touch_block(struct w1_master *dev, u8 *buf, int len)

Touches a series of bytes.

Parameters

struct w1_master *dev

the master device

u8 *buf

pointer to the data to write

int len

the number of bytes to write

u8 w1_read_block(struct w1_master *dev, u8 *buf, int len)

Reads a series of bytes.

int w1_reset_bus(struct w1_master *dev)

Issues a reset bus sequence.

Parameters

struct w1_master *dev

the master device

Return

0=Device present, 1=No device present or error

int w1_reset_select_slave(struct w1_slave *sl)

reset and select a slave

Parameters

struct w1_slave *sl

the slave to select

Description

Resets the bus and then selects the slave by sending either a skip rom or a rom match. A skip rom is issued if there is only one device registered on the bus. The w1 master lock must be held.

Return

0=success, anything else=error

int w1_reset_resume_command(struct w1_master *dev)

resume instead of another match ROM

Parameters

struct w1_master *dev

the master device

Description

When the workflow with a slave amongst many requires several successive commands a reset between each, this function is similar to doing a reset then a match ROM for the last matched ROM. The advantage being that the matched ROM step is skipped in favor of the resume command. The slave must support the command of course.

If the bus has only one slave, traditionnaly the match ROM is skipped and a "SKIP ROM" is done for efficiency. On multi-slave busses, this doesn't work of course, but the resume command is the next best thing.

The w1 master lock must be held.

void w1_next_pullup(struct w1_master *dev, int delay)

register for a strong pullup

Parameters

struct w1_master *dev

the master device

int delay

time in milliseconds

Description

Put out a strong pull-up of the specified duration after the next write operation. Not all hardware supports strong pullups. Hardware that doesn't support strong pullups will sleep for the given time after the write operation without a strong pullup. This is a one shot request for the next write, specifying zero will clear a previous request. The w1 master lock must be held.

Return

0=success, anything else=error

void w1_write_bit(struct w1_master *dev, int bit)

Generates a write-0 or write-1 cycle.

Parameters

struct w1_master *dev

the master device

bit to write

Description

Only call if dev->bus_master->touch_bit is NULL

void w1_pre_write(struct w1_master *dev)

pre-write operations

Parameters

struct w1_master *dev

the master device

Description

Pre-write operation, currently only supporting strong pullups. Program the hardware for a strong pullup, if one has been requested and the hardware supports it.

void w1_post_write(struct w1_master *dev)

post-write options

Parameters

struct w1_master *dev

the master device

Description

Post-write operation, currently only supporting strong pullups. If a strong pullup was requested, clear it if the hardware supports them, or execute the delay otherwise, in either case clear the request.

u8 w1_read_bit(struct w1_master *dev)

Generates a write-1 cycle and samples the level.

Parameters

struct w1_master *dev

the master device

Description

Only call if dev->bus_master->touch_bit is NULL
