w1_bus_master¶ operations available on a bus master
Definition

  u8 (* set_pullup) (void *, int);
  void (* search) (void *, struct w1_master *, u8, w1_slave_found_callback);
};
Members
data- the first parameter in all the functions below
 read_bit- Sample the line level return the level read (0 or 1)
 write_bit- Sets the line level
 touch_bit- the lowest-level function for devices that really support the 1-wire protocol. touch_bit(0) = write-0 cycle touch_bit(1) = write-1 / read cycle return the bit read (0 or 1)
 read_byte- Reads a bytes. Same as 8 touch_bit(1) calls. return the byte read
 write_byte- Writes a byte. Same as 8 touch_bit(x) calls.
 read_block- Same as a series of 
read_byte()calls return the number of bytes read write_block- Same as a series of 
write_byte()calls triplet- Combines two reads and a smart write for ROM searches return bit0=Id bit1=comp_id bit2=dir_taken
 reset_bus- long write-0 with a read for the presence pulse detection return -1=Error, 0=Device present, 1=No device present
 set_pullup- Put out a strong pull-up pulse of the specified duration. return -1=Error, 0=completed
 search- Really nice hardware can handles the different types of ROM search w1_master* is passed to the slave found callback. u8 is search_type, W1_SEARCH or W1_ALARM_SEARCH
 
Note
read_bit and write_bit are very low level functions and should only be used with hardware that doesn’t really support 1-wire operations, like a parallel/serial port. Either define read_bit and write_bit OR define, at minimum, touch_bit and reset_bus.

module_w1_family(__w1_family)¶ Helper macro for registering a 1-Wire families
Parameters
__w1_family- w1_family struct
 
Description
Helper macro for 1-Wire families which do not do anything special in module
init/exit. This eliminates a lot of boilerplate. Each module may only
use this macro once, and calling it replaces module_init() and module_exit()
drivers/w1/w1.c¶
W1 core functions.
- 
void 
w1_search(struct w1_master * dev, u8 search_type, w1_slave_found_callback cb)¶ Performs a ROM Search & registers any devices found.
Parameters
struct w1_master * dev- The master device to search
 u8 search_type- W1_SEARCH to search all devices, or W1_ALARM_SEARCH to return only devices in the alarmed state
 w1_slave_found_callback cb- Function to call when a device is found
 
Description
The 1-wire search is a simple binary tree search. For each bit of the address, we read two bits and write one bit. The bit written will put to sleep all devies that don’t match that bit. When the two reads differ, the direction choice is obvious. When both bits are 0, we must choose a path to take. When we can scan all 64 bits without having to choose a path, we are done.
See “Application note 187 1-wire search algorithm” at www.maxim-ic.com
Parameters
struct w1_master * dev- w1_master device
 
Description
The w1 master list_mutex must be held.
Return

Return

Parameters
struct w1_master * dev- the master device
 
Return
the byte read
Parameters
struct w1_master * dev- the master device
 const u8 * buf- pointer to the data to write
 int len- the number of bytes to write
 
Parameters
struct w1_master * dev- the master device
 u8 * buf- pointer to the data to write
 int len- the number of bytes to write
 
Parameters
struct w1_master * dev- the master device
 u8 * buf- pointer to the buffer to fill
 int len- the number of bytes to read
 
Return
the number of bytes read
Parameters
struct w1_master * dev- the master device
 
Return
0=Device present, 1=No device present or error
Parameters
struct w1_slave * sl- the slave to select
 
Description
Resets the bus and then selects the slave by sending either a skip rom or a rom match. A skip rom is issued if there is only one device registered on the bus. The w1 master lock must be held.
Return
0=success, anything else=error
Parameters
struct w1_master * dev- the master device
 
Description
When the workflow with a slave amongst many requires several successive commands a reset between each, this function is similar to doing a reset then a match ROM for the last matched ROM. The advantage being that the matched ROM step is skipped in favor of the resume command. The slave must support the command of course.
If the bus has only one slave, traditionnaly the match ROM is skipped and a “SKIP ROM” is done for efficiency. On multi-slave busses, this doesn’t work of course, but the resume command is the next best thing.
The w1 master lock must be held.
Parameters
struct w1_master * dev- the master device
 int delay- time in milliseconds
 
Description
Put out a strong pull-up of the specified duration after the next write operation. Not all hardware supports strong pullups. Hardware that doesn’t support strong pullups will sleep for the given time after the write operation without a strong pullup. This is a one shot request for the next write, specifying zero will clear a previous request. The w1 master lock must be held.
Return
0=success, anything else=error
- 
u8 
w1_touch_bit(struct w1_master * dev, int bit)¶ Generates a write-0 or write-1 cycle and samples the level.
Parameters
struct w1_master * dev- the master device
 int bit- 0 - write a 0, 1 - write a 0 read the level
 
Parameters
struct w1_master * dev- the master device
 int bit- bit to write
 
Description
Only call if dev->bus_master->touch_bit is NULL
Parameters
struct w1_master * dev- the master device
 
Description
Pre-write operation, currently only supporting strong pullups. Program the hardware for a strong pullup, if one has been requested and the hardware supports it.
Parameters
struct w1_master * dev- the master device
 
Description
Post-write operation, currently only supporting strong pullups. If a strong pullup was requested, clear it if the hardware supports them, or execute the delay otherwise, in either case clear the request.
Parameters
struct w1_master * dev- the master device
 
Description
Only call if dev->bus_master->touch_bit is NULL
