IEEE 1394 support for FreeBSD-5.X and 4.X.
|
|
|
|
1. Introduction
|
|
|
|
This tarball contains IEEE1394(FireWire) driver which is first
|
|
written by Katsushi Kobayashi[1] <ikob@koganei.wide.ad.jp> and
|
|
modified by Hidetoshi Shimokawa <simokawa@freebsd.org>.
|
|
Please note this driver is still under development.
|
|
You can find latest snapshots under:
|
|
https://people.freebsd.org/~simokawa/
|
|
named firewire-2002XXXX.tar.gz
|
|
|
|
The driver consists of 6 parts:
|
|
|
|
- fwohci.c/fwohci_pci.c
|
|
OHCI[2] driver
|
|
- IEEE1394 link/phy chip control
|
|
- firewire.c
|
|
Chip independent driver
|
|
- CSR
|
|
- Transaction
|
|
- Character devices for userland
|
|
- fwmem.c
|
|
/dev/fwmem0: physical memory of a remote node.
|
|
- sbp.c
|
|
SBP-II[3] (a.k.a. SCSI over FireWire) driver
|
|
|
|
- if_fwe.c
|
|
NON-Standard implementation of Ethernet over FireWire.
|
|
|
|
- bus_mgm.c (userland)
|
|
Bus management function for user.
|
|
show topology map, change gap count, bus reset, etc.
|
|
|
|
2. Installation
|
|
|
|
Suppose you have kernel source at /sys.
|
|
|
|
- Extract tarball at root directory.
|
|
- cd /sys/dev/firewire
|
|
- make
|
|
- make install
|
|
- make load
|
|
|
|
3. SBP-II support (sbp)
|
|
|
|
- You need CAM(SCSI) support in your kernel.
|
|
If you are using FreeBSD-5 before 2002/03/23 or FreeBSD-4 before
|
|
2002/4/8, you need to apply CAM-patch in this archive
|
|
to handle HDD's(T_RBC or T_DIRECT which doesn't support READ_6).
|
|
|
|
- If you connect a few firewire devices only, try the following to
|
|
reduce gap overhead.
|
|
|
|
- ./bus_mgm -g 8
|
|
|
|
4. Ethernet over FireWire (if_fwe)
|
|
|
|
This is a sample driver for ethernet emulation. Please note this
|
|
does NOT conform to any standards like IP over FireWire(RFC2734[4]).
|
|
It just sends ethernet frames encapsulated in asynchronous stream
|
|
packets. It doesn't scale because it does something like unicast over multicast, but it's easy to be implemented and you can use any
|
|
facilities what ethernet can do. (ipv6, bridging, vlan etc.)
|
|
|
|
It also has DEVICE_POLLING[5] support. To enable it, edit your
|
|
kernel config file and Makefile.fwe then rebuild kernel and if_fwe.ko.
|
|
|
|
5. FireWire for Kernel Hackers
|
|
|
|
As you know, IEEE1394 is a bus and OHCI supports physical access
|
|
to the host memory. This means that you can access the remote
|
|
host over firewire without software support at the remote host.
|
|
In other words, you can investigate remote host's physical memory
|
|
whether its OS is alive or crashed or hangs up.
|
|
|
|
You need to apply KVMLIB-patch and rebuild libkvm then rebuild ps,
|
|
dmesg and gdb those are statically linked.
|
|
You may want to apply GDB-patch in this archive to get same behavior
|
|
as gdb with /dev/mem or want to insert savectx(&dumppcb) into panic(),
|
|
breakpoint() and so on to emulation crash dump.
|
|
|
|
You have to determine target node_id manually at this point.
|
|
(guess using bus_mgm -t or dmesg)
|
|
(Targets should be specified by EUI64 in the future)
|
|
|
|
# sysctl kern.firewire.fwmem_node=[node_id]
|
|
|
|
# ps -agx -M /dev/fwmem0 -N /sys/i386/compile/GENERIC/kernel
|
|
# dmesg -M /dev/fwmem0 -N /sys/i386/compile/GENERIC/kernel
|
|
# gdb -k -c /dev/fwmem0 /sys/i386/compile/GENERIC/kernel.debug
|
|
# dd if=/dev/fwmem0 of=vmcore bs=1m count=[phys. memory in MB]
|
|
|
|
remote gdb at 400,000,000 bps :-)

|
|
I have not tested yet.
|
|
|
|
7. Tested HW
|
|
|
|
OS
|
|
- FreeBSD-4/i386
|
|
- FreeBSD-4/alpha
|
|
- FreeBSD-5/i386
|
|
|
|
* Not tested on SMP.
|
|
* Not tested on big-endian machine...
|
|
|
|
OHCI
|
|
- Texas Instruments TSB12LV26 (PCI)
|
|
- Texas Instruments TSB43AA22 (PCI/Cardbus)
|
|
|
|
* There might be phy probing problem but most of the OHCI
|
|
chips should work.
|
|
* Tested with multiple firewire buses.

|
|
Reported by ikob
|
|
- Scanner: Epson GT-9700F
|
|
Now works!!
|
|
Sane-backend needs a patch(SANE-patch in this archive).
|
|
|
|
if_fwe
|
|
- IPv4, IPv6, bridging, vlan.
|
|
- You need at least two FreeBSD machines with this driver to use.
