spi子系统分析

上文从下到上的介绍了spi子系统，现在反过来从上到下的来介绍spi子系统的使用：

int spi_register_driver(struct spi_driver *sdrv)
{
        sdrv->driver.bus = &spi_bus_type;
        if (sdrv->probe)
                sdrv->driver.probe = spi_drv_probe;
        if (sdrv->remove)
                sdrv->driver.remove = spi_drv_remove;
        if (sdrv->shutdown)
                sdrv->driver.shutdown = spi_drv_shutdown;
        return driver_register(&sdrv->driver);
}

2.6内核的典型做法，不直接使用原始设备驱动，而是使用包装后的抽象设备驱动spi_driver, 间接与原始设备驱动建立联系，并最终通过调用driver_register来注册原始设备驱动(要充分理解2.6内核的抽象化思想)。
注：
    以后我们也不会直接与原始设备打交道了，而是通过spi_device来间接操作spi设备了^_^

好了，稍微总结一下：
spi的读写请求通过：spi_transfer->spi_message->spi_bitbang添加都bitbang->queue中，被bitbang->work反方向提取出来执行(后面会提到)。
通 过queue_work(bitbang->workqueue, &bitbang->work)把bitbang-work加入bitbang->workqueue后，在某个合适的时间， bitbang->work将被调度运行，bitbang_work函数将被调用：

/*
* SECOND PART ... simple transfer queue runner.

* This costs a task context per controller, running the queue by
* performing each transfer in sequence. Smarter hardware can queue
* several DMA transfers at once, and process several controller queues
* in parallel; this driver doesn't match such hardware very well.
*
* Drivers can provide word-at-a-time i/o primitives, or provide

总结：
    简单的spi子系统大致就是这样, 相对比较简单易懂, 具体的应用可以参考一下代spi接口的触摸屏控制芯片驱动：
driver/input/touchscreen/ads7846.c
不过看明白它需要多花些时间了，因为毕竟这个驱动不仅和spi子系统打交道而且还和input子系统打交道，可不是那么容易应付的哦!
