Requests are received by OSIF via one of the kernel * interfaces (ioctl, nl80211, virtual file system, etc.). The * requests are translated to an internal format and are then passed * to lower layers, usually via SME, for processing. For requests * which require a response, that response comes up from the lower * layers in a separate thread of execution, ultimately resulting in a * call to a callback function that was provided by OSIF as part of the * initial request. So a mechanism is needed to synchronize the * request and response. This framework provides that mechanism. * * Once the framework has been initialized, the typical sequence of * events is as follows: * * Request Thread: * 1. Create a &struct osif_request_params which describes the request. * 2. Call osif_request_alloc() to allocate a &struct osif_request. * 3. Call osif_request_priv() to get a pointer to the private data. * 4. Place any information which must be shared with the Response * Callback in the private data area. * 5. Call osif_request_cookie() to get the unique cookie assigned * to the request. * 6. Call the underlying request handling API, passing the cookie * as the callback's private context. * 7. Call osif_request_wait_for_response() to wait for the response * (or for the request to time out). * 8. Use the return status to see if the request was successful. If * it was, retrieve any response information from the private * structure and prepare a response for userspace. * 9. Call osif_request_put() to relinquish access to the request. * 10. Return status to the caller. * * Response Callback: * 1. Call osif_request_get() with the provided cookie to see if the * request structure is still valid. If it returns %NULL then * return since this means the request thread has already timed * out. * 2. Call osif_request_priv() to get access to the private data area. * 3. Write response data into the private data area. * 4. Call osif_request_complete() to indicate that the response is * ready to be processed by the request thread. * 5. Call osif_request_put() to relinquish the callback function's * reference to the request. */ /* this is opaque to clients */ struct osif_request; /** * typedef osif_request_dealloc() - Private data deallocation function * @priv: pointer to request private date */ typedef void (*osif_request_dealloc)(void *priv); /** * struct osif_request_params - OSIF request parameters * @priv_size: Size of the private data area required to pass * information between the request thread and the response callback. * @timeout_ms: The amount of time to wait for a response in milliseconds. * @dealloc: Function to be called when the request is destroyed to * deallocate any allocations made in the private area of the * request struct.
