/**
|
||||
* struct comedi_async - control data for asynchronous comedi commands
|
||||
* @prealloc_buf: preallocated buffer
|
||||
* @prealloc_bufsz: buffer size (in bytes)
|
||||
* @buf_map: map of buffer pages
|
||||
* @max_bufsize: maximum buffer size (in bytes)
|
||||
* @buf_write_count: "write completed" count (in bytes, modulo 2**32)
|
||||
* @buf_write_alloc_count: "allocated for writing" count (in bytes,
|
||||
* modulo 2**32)
|
||||
* @buf_read_count: "read completed" count (in bytes, modulo 2**32)
|
||||
* @buf_read_alloc_count: "allocated for reading" count (in bytes,
|
||||
* modulo 2**32)
|
||||
* @buf_write_ptr: buffer position for writer
|
||||
* @buf_read_ptr: buffer position for reader
|
||||
* @cur_chan: current position in chanlist for scan (for those
|
||||
* drivers that use it)
|
||||
* @scan_progress: amount received or sent for current scan (in bytes)
|
||||
* @munge_chan: current position in chanlist for "munging"
|
||||
* @munge_count: "munge" count (in bytes, modulo 2**32)
|
||||
* @munge_ptr: buffer position for "munging"
|
||||
* @events: bit-vector of events that have occurred
|
||||
* @cmd: details of comedi command in progress
|
||||
* @wait_head: task wait queue for file reader or writer
|
||||
* @cb_mask: bit-vector of events that should wake waiting tasks
|
||||
* @inttrig: software trigger function for command, or NULL
|
||||
*
|
||||
* Note about the ..._count and ..._ptr members:
|
||||
*
|
||||
* Think of the _Count values being integers of unlimited size, indexing
|
||||
* into a buffer of infinite length (though only an advancing portion
|
||||
* of the buffer of fixed length prealloc_bufsz is accessible at any time).
|
||||
* Then:
|
||||
*
|
||||
* Buf_Read_Count <= Buf_Read_Alloc_Count <= Munge_Count <=
|
||||
* Buf_Write_Count <= Buf_Write_Alloc_Count <=
|
||||
* (Buf_Read_Count + prealloc_bufsz)
|
||||
*
|
||||
* (Those aren't the actual members, apart from prealloc_bufsz.) When
|
||||
* the buffer is reset, those _Count values start at 0 and only increase
|
||||
* in value, maintaining the above inequalities until the next time the
|
||||
* buffer is reset. The buffer is divided into the following regions by
|
||||
* the inequalities:
|
||||
*
|
||||
* [0, Buf_Read_Count):
|
||||
* old region no longer accessible
|
||||
* [Buf_Read_Count, Buf_Read_Alloc_Count):
|
||||
* filled and munged region allocated for reading but not yet read
|
||||
* [Buf_Read_Alloc_Count, Munge_Count):
|
||||
* filled and munged region not yet allocated for reading
|
||||
* [Munge_Count, Buf_Write_Count):
|
||||
* filled region not yet munged
|
||||
* [Buf_Write_Count, Buf_Write_Alloc_Count):
|
||||
* unfilled region allocated for writing but not yet written
|
||||
* [Buf_Write_Alloc_Count, Buf_Read_Count + prealloc_bufsz):
|
||||
* unfilled region not yet allocated for writing
|
||||
* [Buf_Read_Count + prealloc_bufsz, infinity):
|
||||
* unfilled region not yet accessible
|
||||
*
|
||||
* Data needs to be written into the buffer before it can be read out,
|
||||
* and may need to be converted (or "munged") between the two
|
||||
* operations. Extra unfilled buffer space may need to allocated for
|
||||
* writing (advancing Buf_Write_Alloc_Count) before new data is written.
|
||||
* After writing new data, the newly filled space needs to be released
|
||||
* (advancing Buf_Write_Count). This also results in the new data being
|
||||
* "munged" (advancing Munge_Count). Before data is read out of the
|
||||
* buffer, extra space may need to be allocated for reading (advancing
|
||||
* Buf_Read_Alloc_Count). After the data has been read out, the space
|
||||
* needs to be released (advancing Buf_Read_Count).
|
||||
*
|
||||
* The actual members, buf_read_count, buf_read_alloc_count,
|
||||
* munge_count, buf_write_count, and buf_write_alloc_count take the
|
||||
* value of the corresponding capitalized _Count values modulo 2^32
|
||||
* (UINT_MAX+1). Subtracting a "higher" _count value from a "lower"
|
||||
* _count value gives the same answer as subtracting a "higher" _Count
|
||||
* value from a lower _Count value because prealloc_bufsz < UINT_MAX+1.
|
||||
* The modulo operation is done implicitly.
|
||||
*
|
||||
* The buf_read_ptr, munge_ptr, and buf_write_ptr members take the value
|
||||
* of the corresponding capitalized _Count values modulo prealloc_bufsz.
|
||||
* These correspond to byte indices in the physical buffer. The modulo
|
||||
* operation is done by subtracting prealloc_bufsz when the value
|
||||
* exceeds prealloc_bufsz (assuming prealloc_bufsz plus the increment is
|
||||
* less than or equal to UINT_MAX).
