本文主要描述了在android2.3平台G-sensor相关软硬件的体系架构和实现原理,按照Applications、Framework、HAL、Driver和Hardware五大层次分别介绍。
1.系统架构 (Architecture)
1.1 Android体系架构图
1.2 Sensor子系统架构图
· Application Framework
Sensor应用程序通过Sensor应用框架来获取sensor数据,应用框架层的Sensor Manager通过JNI与C++层进行通信。
· Sensor Libraries
Sensor中间层主要由Sensor Manager、Sensor service和Sensor硬件抽象层组成。
· Input Subsystem
通用的Linux输入框架专为与键盘、鼠标和触摸屏等输入设备而设计,并定义了一套标准事件集合。Sensor输入子系统采用采用了通用的Linux输入框架,它通过/sys/class/input节点和用户空间进行交互。
· Event Dev
Evdev提供了一种访问/dev/input/eventX输入设备事件的通用方法。
· AccelerometerDriver
此驱动通过SIRQ和I2C总线与MMA7660模组进行通信。SIRQ用来产生传感器事件中断。
2 应用 (Applications)
2.1 应用开发五步曲(1) 获取传感器管理器对象;
mSensorManager =(SensorManager) getSystemService(SENSOR_SERVICE);
(2) 获取传感器对象;
mSensor = mSensorManager.getDefaultSensor(Sensor.TYPE_ACCELEROMETER);
(3) 定义事件监听器;
mEventListener =new SensorEventListener() {
- @Override
- publicvoid onSensorChanged(SensorEvent event) {
- float[] values = event.values;
- mTextView.setText("Accelerometer:" + values[0] +", "
- + values[1] +", " + values[2]);
- }
-
- @Override
- publicvoidonAccuracyChanged(Sensor sensor,int accuracy) {
- }
(4) 注册事件监听器;
protectedvoid onResume() {
- super.onResume();
-
- mSensorManager.registerListener(mEventListener, mSensor,
- SensorManager.SENSOR_DELAY_NORMAL);
(5) 卸载事件监听器;
protectedvoid onPause() {
- super.onPause();
-
- mSensorManager.unregisterListener(mEventListener);
- }
3 框架 (Framework)
3.1 工作模型
3.1.1 SensorManager的创建
nativeClassInit(): 初始化Native类信息;
sensors_module_init(): 创建Native SensorManager实例,从SensorService读取Sensor设备列表;
sensors_module_get_next_sensor(): 从SensorService读取下一个Sensor设备;
3.1.2 SensorThread数据接收处理
sensors_create_queue(): 创建和SensorService共享的消息队列;
sensors_data_poll(): 从消息队列中读取SensorService发过来的消息;
3.1.3 SensorService的工作原理
SensorDevice::poll(): 调用HAL接口读取数据;
SensorEventConnection::sendEvents(): 往消息队列中写入消息,SensorThread后续会读取该消息;
3.1.4 SensorDevice对HAL的访问
4 硬件抽象层 (HAL)在linux操作系统中,应用同硬件之间的交互都是通过设备驱动来实现,Android系统为了降低应用开发人员开发难度,屏蔽硬件差异,定义出硬件抽象层,为开发人员提供获取各种设备相关的信息的接口。
4.1 Sensors HAL关键流程
4.1.1 打开Sensor设备
SensorBase ::openInput() : 打开input子系统的sensor消息文件句柄;
ioctl(EVIOCGABS(...)) : 获取ABS_X/ABS_Y/ABS_Z的加速度;
4.1.2 轮循Sensor事件
InputEventCircularReader::fill(): 调用read()从input子系统中读取事件放入环形缓冲区;
InputEventCircularReader::readEvent(): 从环形缓冲区中读取事件;
InputEventCircularReader::next(): 移动环形缓冲区当前指针;
5.2 Sensors HAL关键数据结构
5.2.1 sensors_module_t- struct sensors_module_t {
- struct hw_module_t common;
-
-
-
-
-
- int (*get_sensors_list)(struct sensors_module_t* module,
- struct sensor_t const** list);
- };
hw_get_module()会加载HAL模块,并返回HAL入口数据结构(hw_module_t)。HAL_MODULE_INFO_SYM默认是“HAL”,在hw_get_module中用dlsym获取。
- const struct sensors_module_t HAL_MODULE_INFO_SYM = {
- .common = {
- .tag = HARDWARE_MODULE_TAG,
- .version_major = 1,
- .version_minor = 0,
- .id = SENSORS_HARDWARE_MODULE_ID,
- .name = "MMA7660 Sensors Module",
- .author = "The Android Open Source Project",
- .methods = &sensors_module_methods,
- },
- .get_sensors_list = sensors__get_sensors_list
- };
5.2.2 hw_module_methods_t
static struct hw_module_methods_t sensors_module_methods = {5.2.3 sensors_poll_context_t- struct sensors_poll_context_t {
- struct sensors_poll_device_t device;
- sensors_poll_context_t();
- ~sensors_poll_context_t();
- int activate(int handle, int enabled);
- int setDelay(int handle, int64_t ns);
- int pollEvents(sensors_event_t* data, int count);
- int handleToDriver(int handle);
- };
5.2.4 sensors_poll_device_t
- struct sensors_poll_device_t {
- struct hw_device_t common;
-
- int (*activate)(struct sensors_poll_device_t *dev,
- int handle, int enabled);
-
- int (*setDelay)(struct sensors_poll_device_t *dev,
- int handle, int64_t ns);
-
- int (*poll)(struct sensors_poll_device_t *dev,
- sensors_event_t* data, int count);
- };
5.2.5 sensor_t定义传感器的基本参数。
- static const struct sensor_t sSensorList[] = {
- { "MMA7660 3-axis Accelerometer",
- "Freescale Semiconductor",
- 1, SENSORS_HANDLE_BASE+ID_A,
- SENSOR_TYPE_ACCELEROMETER, 3.0f*9.81f, (3.0f*9.81f)/64.0f, 0.35f, 0, { } },
- };
- struct sensor_t {
- const char* name;
- const char* vendor;
- int version;
- int handle;
- int type;
- float maxRange;
- float resolution;
- float power;
- int32_t minDelay;
- void* reserved[8];
- };
6 驱动 (driver)
6.1 mma7660驱动框架mma7660与主机通信是通过I2C接口,因此mma7660驱动程序采用Linux系统的I2C子系统框架来实现,主要由3部分组成:
(1) I2C核心
I2C核心提供了I2C总线驱动和设备驱动的注册、注销方法,I2C通信方法(即“algorithm”)上层的、与具体适配器无关的代码以及探测设备、检测设备地址的上层代码等。这部分是与平台无关的。
此部分在Linux内核的I2C驱动中实现,mma7660驱动使用其提供的功能接口来注册设备驱动。
(2) I2C总线驱动
I2C总线驱动是对I2C硬件体系结构中适配器端的实现。I2C总线驱动主要包含了I2C适配器数据结构i2c_adapter、I2C适配器的algorithm数据结构i2c_algorithm和控制I2C适配器产生通信信号的函数。经由I2C总线驱动的代码,我们可以控制I2C适配器以主控方式产生开始位、停止位、读写周期,以及以从设备方式被读写、产生ACK等。不同的CPU平台对应着不同的I2C总线驱动。
此部分在Linux内核的I2C驱动中实现,mma7660驱动直接获取其提供的adapter,并调用I2C核心的接口来注册。
(3) I2C设备驱动
I2C设备驱动是对I2C硬件体系结构中设备端的实现。设备一般挂接在受CPU控制的I2C适配器上,通过I2C适配器与CPU交换数据。I2C设备驱动主要包含了数据结构i2c_driver和i2c_client,mma7660驱动需要实现其中的成员函数。
在Linux内核源代码中的drivers目录下的i2c_dev.c文件,实现了I2C适配器设备文件的功能,应用程序通过“i2c-%d”文件名并使用文件操作接口open()、write()、read()、ioctl()和close()等来访问这个设备。应用层可以借用这些接口访问挂接在适配器上的I2C设备的存储空间或寄存器并控制I2C设备的工作方式。

6.3 命令行调试
6.3.1 sysfs调试接口
(1)
定义sysfs attribute相关数据结构;
- static SENSOR_DEVICE_ATTR(all_axis_force, S_IRUGO, show_xyz_force, NULL, 0);
- static SENSOR_DEVICE_ATTR(x_axis_force, S_IRUGO, show_axis_force, NULL, 0);

- };
-
- static const struct attribute_group mma7660_group =
- {

- };
(2)

- case 1:
- result = sprintf(buf, "Front\n");
- break;
- case 2:
- result = sprintf(buf, "Back\n");
- break;
- default:
- result = sprintf(buf, "Unknown\n");
- }
- }
- return result;
- }
- ssize_t show_xyz_force(struct device *dev, struct device_attribute *attr, char *buf)
- {
