看 门狗的驱动一般来说比较简单,只要做寄存器的设置实现开启、关闭、喂狗功能。本项目中我们使用的是at91sam9g45处理器,带有看门狗定时器。这个 看门狗的驱动却比较复杂,应用层想用它的话,将涉及到boot引导设置,uboot配置及驱动,改写驱动程序。下面将逐步说明。

1、boot引导(bootstrap-v1.14)

由于该看门狗的MR寄存器只能写一次(Only a processor reset resets it.),而默认情况下看门狗在boot引导程序中被关闭了,所以在boot引导程序中我们要开启看门狗。在at91sam9g45ekes.c文件的硬 件初始化函数hw_init中注释掉下面的配置即可开启看门狗:

/* writel(AT91C_WDTC_WDDIS, AT91C_BASE_WDTC + WDTC_WDMR); */

为了功能设置:我们配置如下:

writel(AT91C_WDTC_WDV | AT91C_WDTC_WDD | AT91C_WDTC_WDRSTEN | AT91C_WDTC_WDFIEN, AT91C_BASE_WDTC + WDTC_WDMR);

2、uboot配置及驱动(uboot-v1.3.4):

默认情况下,看门狗在uboot中没有配置,需要手动添加配置,在文件include/configs/at91sam9m10g45ek.h中添加如下配置

#define CONFIG_HW_WATCHDOG 1

#define CONFIG_AT91SAM9_WATCHDOG 1

此时编译uboot,会提示你找不到hw_watchdog_reset复位函数,这是因为虽然我们配置看门狗,但看门狗的uboot驱动并不存在,下面就来添加uboot下的看门狗驱动。

1)添加 include/asm-arm/arch-at91sam9/at91_wdt.h,内容如下

#ifndef AT91_WDT_H

#define AT91_WDT_H

#endif

2)添加drivers/watchdog/at91sam9_wdt.c,内容如下

/*

/*

*/

#include <common.h>

#include <watchdog.h>

#include <asm/arch/hardware.h>

#include <asm/arch/io.h>

#include <asm/arch/at91_wdt.h>

/*

* AT91SAM9 watchdog runs a 12bit counter @ 256Hz,

* value from/to milliseconds.

*/

#define ms_to_ticks(t) (((t << 8) / 1000) - 1)

#define ticks_to_ms(t) (((t + 1) * 1000) >> 8)

/* Hardware timeout in seconds */

#define WDT_HW_TIMEOUT 2

/*

* Set the watchdog time interval in 1/256Hz (write-once)

* Counter is 12 bit.

*/

static int at91_wdt_settimeout(unsigned int timeout)

{

unsigned int reg;

unsigned int mr;

/* Check if disabled */

mr = at91_sys_read(AT91_WDT_MR);

if (mr & AT91_WDT_WDDIS) {

printf("sorry, watchdog is disabled/n");

return -1;

}

/*

*/

reg = AT91_WDT_WDRSTEN /* causes watchdog reset */

/* | AT91_WDT_WDRPROC causes processor reset only */

| AT91_WDT_WDDBGHLT /* disabled in debug mode */

| AT91_WDT_WDD /* restart at any time */

| (timeout & AT91_WDT_WDV); /* timer value */

at91_sys_write(AT91_WDT_MR, reg);

return 0;

}

void hw_watchdog_reset(void)

{

at91_sys_write(AT91_WDT_CR, AT91_WDT_KEY | AT91_WDT_WDRSTT);

}

void hw_watchdog_init(void)

{

/* 16 seconds timer, resets enabled */

at91_wdt_settimeout(ms_to_ticks(WDT_HW_TIMEOUT * 1000));

}

3)添加drivers/watchdog/Makefile

include $(TOPDIR)/config.mk

LIB := $(obj)libwatchdog.a

COBJS-$(CONFIG_AT91SAM9_WATCHDOG) += at91sam9_wdt.o

COBJS := $(COBJS-y)

SRCS := $(COBJS:.o=.c)

OBJS := $(addprefix $(obj),$(COBJS))

all: $(LIB)

$(LIB): $(obj).depend $(OBJS)

$(AR) $(ARFLAGS) $@ $(OBJS)

#########################################################################

# defines $(obj).depend target

include $(SRCTREE)/rules.mk

sinclude $(obj).depend

#########################################################################

4)修改uboot的Makefile,主要是把watchdog编辑到工程里

修改1:

LIBS += drivers/video/libvideo.a

+LIBS += drivers/watchdog/libwatchdog.a(添加)

LIBS += common/libcommon.a

修改2:

TAG_SUBDIRS += drivers/usb

TAG_SUBDIRS += drivers/video

+TAG_SUBDIRS += drivers/watchdog (添加)

5)修改串口驱动drivers/serial/atmel_usart.c,主要是在串口读的时候复位看门狗,防止系统重启

int serial_getc(void)

{

- while (!(usart3_readl(CSR) & USART3_BIT(RXRDY))) ; (删除)

+ while (!(usart3_readl(CSR) & USART3_BIT(RXRDY))) (添加)

+ WATCHDOG_RESET(); (添加)

return usart3_readl(RHR);

}

3、改写驱动程序(linux2.6.30内核)

1、配置内核

在默认情况,系统并不加载看门狗驱动,需要配置内核:make menuconfig

Device drivers-->Watchdog Timer Support-->AT91SAM9 watchdog

注:在笔者的at91sam9g45处理器,编译后配置编译后还是不能加载,后花了很久时间才找出原因,看门狗配置项如下:

CONFIG_AT91SAM9X_WATCHDOG=y (.config文件)

而平台设备加载中(arch/arm/mach-at91/at91sam9g45_devices.c文件)

#if defined(CONFIG_AT91SAM9_WATCHDOG) || defined(CONFIG_AT91SAM9_WATCHDOG_MODULE)

static struct platform_device at91sam9g45_wdt_device = {

.name = "at91_wdt",

.id = -1,

.num_resources = 0,

};

static void __init at91_add_device_watchdog(void)

{

platform_device_register(&at91sam9g45_wdt_device);

}

#else

static void __init at91_add_device_watchdog(void) {}

#endif

宏定义和配置项不符,难怪加载不进去,修改CONFIG_AT91SAM9_WATCHDOG为CONFIG_AT91SAM9X_WATCHDOG

正常启动,系统/dev目录下有watchdog设备

2、修改驱动

由于,该系统看门狗在处理器复位时才可以设置模式寄存器(MR),所以看门狗一旦开启,就不能关闭。

查看看门狗驱动(drivers/watchdog/at91sam9_wdt.c),我们发现驱动在平台驱动注册的时候at91wdt_driver函数中调用了:

setup_timer(&at91wdt_private.timer, at91_ping, 0);

mod_timer(&at91wdt_private.timer, jiffies + WDT_TIMEOUT);

调用内核定时器定时复位看门狗。当应用程序要使用看门狗时,可以从内核定时器列表中删除看门狗定时器,然后手动定时复位看门狗;当应用程序不使用时,再将看门狗定时器添加到内核定时器中。

这些操作我们放在IOCTL中,代码如下(at91_wdt_ioctl函数):

switch(cmd) {

case WDIOC_SETON: //"开启"看门狗自动定时复位

setup_timer(&at91wdt_private.timer, at91_ping, 0);

mod_timer(&at91wdt_private.timer, jiffies + WDT_TIMEOUT);

return 0;

case WDIOC_SETOFF: //"关闭"看门狗自动定时复位,变位手动复位

del_timer(&at91wdt_private.timer);

return 0;

case WDIOC_KEEPALIVE:

//at91wdt_private.next_heartbeat = jiffies + heartbeat * HZ;

at91_wdt_reset();

return 0;
