Linux-2.6.12-rc2v2.6.12-rc2
Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.
Let it rip!

PROGRAMMING ADD ONS: CDPLAY.C + APPENDIX: Source code of cdplay.c +---------------------------------------------------------------------------- + +1. NOTE +This software has been successfully in alpha and beta test and is part of +the standard kernel since kernel 1.1.8x since December 1994. It works with +AZTECH CDA268-01A, ORCHID CDS-3110, ORCHID/WEARNES CDD110 and CONRAD TXC +(Nr.99 31 23 -series 04) and has proven to be stable with kernel +versions 1.0.9 and newer. But with any software there still may be bugs in it. +So if you encounter problems, you are invited to help us improve this software. +Please send me a detailed bug report (see chapter BUG REPORTS). You are also +invited in helping us to increase the number of drives, which are supported. + +Please read the README-files carefully and always keep a backup copy of your +old kernel, in order to reboot if something goes wrong! + +2. INSTALLATION +The driver consists of a header file 'aztcd.h', which normally should reside +in /usr/src/linux/drivers/cdrom and the source code 'aztcd.c', which normally +resides in the same place. It uses /dev/aztcd (/dev/aztcd0 in some distri- +butions), which must be a valid block device with major number 29 and reside +in directory /dev. To mount a CD-ROM, your kernel needs to have the ISO9660- +filesystem support included. + +PLEASE NOTE: aztcd.c has been developed in parallel to the linux kernel, +which had and is having many major and minor changes which are not backward +compatible. Quite definitely aztcd.c version 1.80 and newer will NOT work +in kernels older than 1.3.33. So please always use the most recent version +of aztcd.c with the appropriate linux-kernel. + +3. CONFIGURING YOUR KERNEL +If your kernel is already configured for using the AZTECH driver you will +see the following message while Linux boots: + Aztech CD-ROM Init: DriverVersion=<version number> BaseAddress=<baseaddress> + Aztech CD-ROM Init: FirmwareVersion=<firmware version id of your I/O-card>>> + Aztech CD-ROM Init: <drive type> detected + Aztech CD-ROM Init: End +If the message looks different and you are sure to have a supported drive, +it may have a different base address. The Aztech driver does look for the +CD-ROM drive at the base address specified in aztcd.h at compile time. This +address can be overwritten by boot parameter aztcd=....You should reboot and +start Linux with boot parameter aztcd=<base address>, e.g. aztcd=0x320. If +you do not know the base address, start your PC with DOS and look at the boot +message of your CD-ROM's DOS driver. If that still does not help, use boot +parameter aztcd=<base address>,0x79 , this tells aztcd to try a little harder. +aztcd may be configured to use autoprobing the base address by recompiling +it (see chapter 4.). + +If the message looks correct, as user 'root' you should be able to mount the +drive by + mount -t iso9660 -r /dev/aztcd0 /mnt +and use it as any other filesystem. (If this does not work, check if +/dev/aztcd0 and /mnt do exist and create them, if necessary by doing + mknod /dev/aztcd0 b 29 0 + mkdir /mnt + +If you still get a different message while Linux boots or when you get the +message, that the ISO9660-filesystem is not supported by your kernel, when +you try to mount the CD-ROM drive, you have to recompile your kernel. + +If you do *not* have an Aztech/Orchid/Okano/Wearnes/TXC drive and want to +bypass drive detection during Linux boot up, start with boot parameter aztcd=0. + +Most distributions nowadays do contain a boot disk image containing aztcd. +Please note, that this driver will not work with IDE/ATAPI drives! With these +you must use ide-cd.c instead. + +4. RECOMPILING YOUR KERNEL +If your kernel is not yet configured for the AZTECH driver and the ISO9660- +filesystem, you have to recompile your kernel: + +- Edit aztcd.h to set the I/O-address to your I/O-Base address (AZT_BASE_ADDR), + the driver does not use interrupts or DMA, so if you are using an AZTECH + CD268, an ORCHID CD-3110 or ORCHID/WEARNES CDD110 that's the only item you + have to set up. If you have a soundcard, read chapter 4.2. + Users of other drives should read chapter OTHER DRIVES of this file. + You also can configure that address by kernel boot parameter aztcd=... +- aztcd may be configured to use autoprobing the base address by setting + AZT_BASE_ADDR to '-1'. In that case aztcd probes the addresses listed + under AZT_BASE_AUTO. But please remember, that autoprobing always may + incorrectly influence other hardware components too! +- There are some other points, which may be configured, e.g. auto-eject the + CD when unmounting a drive, tray locking etc., see aztcd.h for details. +- If you're using a linux kernel version prior to 2.1.0, in aztcd.h + uncomment the line '#define AZT_KERNEL_PRIOR_2_1' +- Build a new kernel, configure it for 'Aztech/Orchid/Okano/Wearnes support' + (if you want aztcd to be part of the kernel). Do not configure it for + 'Aztech... support', if you want to use aztcd as a run time loadable module. + But in any case you must have the ISO9660-filesystem included in your + kernel. +- Activate the new kernel, normally this is done by running LILO (don't for- + get to configure it before and to keep a copy of your old kernel in case + something goes wrong!). +- Reboot +- If you've included aztcd in your kernel, you now should see during boot + some messages like + Aztech CD-ROM Init: DriverVersion=<version number> BaseAddress=<baseaddress> + Aztech CD-ROM Init: FirmwareVersion=<firmware version id of your I/O-card> + Aztech CD-ROM Init: <drive type> detected + Aztech CD-ROM Init: End +- If you have not included aztcd in your kernel, but want to load aztcd as a + run time loadable module see 4.1. +- If the message looks correct, as user 'root' you should be able to mount + the drive by + mount -t iso9660 -r /dev/aztcd0 /mnt + and use it as any other filesystem. (If this does not work, check if + /dev/aztcd0 and /mnt do exist and create them, if necessary by doing + mknod /dev/aztcd0 b 29 0 + mkdir /mnt +- If this still does not help, see chapters OTHER DRIVES and DEBUGGING. + +4.1 AZTCD AS A RUN-TIME LOADABLE MODULE +If you do not need aztcd permanently, you can also load and remove the driver +during runtime via insmod and rmmod. To build aztcd as a loadable module you +must configure your kernel for AZTECH module support (answer 'm' when con- +figuring the kernel). Anyhow, you may run into problems, if the version of +your boot kernel is not the same than the source kernel version, from which +you create the modules. So rebuild your kernel, if necessary. + +Now edit the base address of your AZTECH interface card in +/usr/src/linux/drivers/cdrom/aztcd.h to the appropriate value. +aztcd may be configured to use autoprobing the base address by setting +AZT_BASE_ADDR to '-1'. In that case aztcd probes the addresses listed +under AZT_BASE_AUTO. But please remember, that autoprobing always may +incorrectly influence other hardware components too! +There are also some special features which may be configured, e.g. +auto-eject a CD when unmounting the drive etc; see aztcd.h for details. +Then change to /usr/src/linux and do a + make modules + make modules_install +After that you can run-time load the driver via + insmod /lib/modules/X.X.X/misc/aztcd.o +and remove it via rmmod aztcd. +If you did not set the correct base address in aztcd.h, you can also supply the +base address when loading the driver via + insmod /lib/modules/X.X.X/misc/aztcd.o aztcd=<base address> +Again specifying aztcd=-1 will cause autoprobing. +If you do not have the iso9660-filesystem in your boot kernel, you also have +to load it before you can mount the CDROM: + insmod /lib/modules/X.X.X/fs/isofs.o +The mount procedure works as described in 4. above. +(In all commands 'X.X.X' is the current linux kernel version number) + +4.2 CDROM CONNECTED TO A SOUNDCARD +Most soundcards do have a bus interface to the CDROM-drive. In many cases +this soundcard needs to be configured, before the CDROM can be used. This +configuration procedure consists of writing some kind of initialization +data to the soundcard registers. The AZTECH-CDROM driver in the moment does +only support one type of soundcard (SoundWave32). Users of other soundcards +should try to boot DOS first and let their DOS drivers initialize the +soundcard and CDROM, then warm boot (or use loadlin) their PC to start +Linux. +Support for the CDROM-interface of SoundWave32-soundcards is directly +implemented in the AZTECH driver. Please edit linux/drivers/cdrom/aztdc.h, +uncomment line '#define AZT_SW32' and set the appropriate value for +AZT_BASE_ADDR and AZT_SW32_BASE_ADDR. This support was tested with an Orchid +CDS-3110 connected to a SoundWave32. +If you want your soundcard to be supported, find out, how it needs to be +configured and mail me (see 6.) the appropriate information. + +5. KNOWN PROBLEMS, FUTURE DEVELOPMENTS +5.1 MULTISESSION SUPPORT +Multisession support for CD's still is a myth. I implemented and tested a basic +support for multisession and XA CDs, but I still have not enough CDs and appli- +cations to test it rigorously. So if you'd like to help me, please contact me +(Email address see below). As of version 1.4 and newer you can enable the +multisession support in aztcd.h by setting AZT_MULTISESSION to 1. Doing so +will cause the ISO9660-filesystem to deal with multisession CDs, ie. redirect +requests to the Table of Contents (TOC) information from the last session, +which contains the info of all previous sessions etc.. If you do set +AZT_MULTISESSION to 0, you can use multisession CDs anyway. In that case the +drive's firmware will do automatic redirection. For the ISO9660-filesystem any +multisession CD will then look like a 'normal' single session CD. But never- +theless the data of all sessions are viewable and accessible. So with practical- +ly all real world applications you won't notice the difference. But as future +applications may make use of advanced multisession features, I've started to +implement the interface for the ISO9660 multisession interface via ioctl +CDROMMULTISESSION. + +5.2 STATUS RECOGNITION +The drive status recognition does not work correctly in all cases. Changing +a disk or having the door open, when a drive is already mounted, is detected +by the Aztech driver itself, but nevertheless causes multiple read attempts +by the different layers of the ISO9660-filesystem driver, which finally timeout, +so you have to wait quite a little... But isn't it bad style to change a disk +in a mounted drive, anyhow ?! + +The driver uses busy wait in most cases for the drive handshake (macros +STEN_LOW and DTEN_LOW). I tested with a 486/DX2 at 66MHz and a Pentium at +60MHz and 90MHz. Whenever you use a much faster machine you are likely to get +timeout messages. In that case edit aztcd.h and increase the timeout value +AZT_TIMEOUT. + +For some 'slow' drive commands I implemented waiting with a timer waitqueue +(macro STEN_LOW_WAIT). If you get this timeout message, you may also edit +aztcd.h and increase the timeout value AZT_STATUS_DELAY. The waitqueue has +shown to be a little critical. If you get kernel panic messages, edit aztcd.c +and substitute STEN_LOW_WAIT by STEN_LOW. Busy waiting with STEN_LOW is more +stable, but also causes CPU overhead. + +5.3 DOSEMU's CD-ROM SUPPORT +With release 1.20 aztcd was modified to allow access to CD-ROMS when running +under dosemu-0.60.0 aztcd-versions before 1.20 are most likely to crash +Linux, when a CD-ROM is accessed under dosemu. This problem has partly been +fixed, but still when accessing a directory for the first time the system +might hang for some 30sec. So be patient, when using dosemu's CD-ROM support +in combination with aztcd :-) ! +This problem has now (July 1995) been fixed by a modification to dosemu's +CD-ROM driver. The new version came with dosemu-0.60.2, see dosemu's +README.CDROM. + +6. BUG REPORTS +Please send detailed bug reports and bug fixes via EMail to + + Werner.Zimmermann@fht-esslingen.de + +Please include a description of your CD-ROM drive type and interface card, +the exact firmware message during Linux bootup, the version number of the +AZTECH-CDROM-driver and the Linux kernel version. Also a description of your +system's other hardware could be of interest, especially microprocessor type, +clock frequency, other interface cards such as soundcards, ethernet adapter, +game cards etc.. + +I will try to collect the reports and make the necessary modifications from +time to time. I may also come back to you directly with some bug fixes and +ask you to do further testing and debugging. + +Editors of CD-ROMs are invited to send a 'cooperation' copy of their +CD-ROMs to the volunteers, who provided the CD-ROM support for Linux. My +snail mail address for such 'stuff' is + Prof. Dr. W. Zimmermann + Fachhochschule fuer Technik Esslingen + Fachbereich IT + Flandernstrasse 101 + D-73732 Esslingen + Germany + + +7. OTHER DRIVES +The following drives ORCHID CDS3110, OKANO CDD110, WEARNES CDD110 and Conrad +TXC Nr. 993123-series 04 nearly look the same as AZTECH CDA268-01A, especially +they seem to use the same command codes. So it was quite simple to make the +AZTECH driver work with these drives. + +Unfortunately I do not have any of these drives available, so I couldn't test +it myself. In some installations, it seems necessary to initialize the drive +with the DOS driver before (especially if combined with a sound card) and then +do a warm boot (CTRL-ALT-RESET) or start Linux from DOS, e.g. with 'loadlin'. + +If you do not succeed, read chapter DEBUGGING. Thanks in advance! + +Sorry for the inconvenience, but it is difficult to develop for hardware, +which you don't have available for testing. So if you like, please help us. + +If you do have a CyCDROM CR520ie thanks to Hilmar Berger's help your chances +are good, that it will work with aztcd. The CR520ie is sold as an IDE-drive +and really is connected to the IDE interface (primary at 0x1F0 or secondary +at 0x170, configured as slave, not as master). Nevertheless it is not ATAPI +compatible but still uses Aztech's command codes. + + +8. DEBUGGING : IF YOU DON'T SUCCEED, TRY THE FOLLOWING +-reread the complete README file +-make sure, that your drive is hardware configured for + transfer mode: polled + IRQ: not used + DMA: not used + Base Address: something like 300, 320 ... + You can check this, when you start the DOS driver, which came with your + drive. By appropriately configuring the drive and the DOS driver you can + check, whether your drive does operate in this mode correctly under DOS. If + it does not operate under DOS, it won't under Linux. + If your drive's base address is something like 0x170 or 0x1F0 (and it is + not a CyCDROM CR520ie or CR 940ie) you most likely are having an IDE/ATAPI- + compatible drive, which is not supported by aztcd.c, use ide-cd.c instead. + Make sure the Base Address is configured correctly in aztcd.h, also make + sure, that /dev/aztcd0 exists with the correct major number (compare it with + the entry in file /usr/include/linux/major.h for the Aztech drive). +-insert a CD-ROM and close the tray +-cold boot your PC (i.e. via the power on switch or the reset button) +-if you start Linux via DOS, e.g. using loadlin, make sure, that the DOS + driver for the CD-ROM drive is not loaded (comment out the calling lines + in DOS' config.sys!) +-look for the aztcd: init message during Linux init and note them exactly +-log in as root and do a mount -t iso9660 /dev/aztcd0 /mnt +-if you don't succeed in the first time, try several times. Try also to open + and close the tray, then mount again. Please note carefully all commands + you typed in and the aztcd-messages, which you get. +-if you get an 'Aztech CD-ROM init: aborted' message, read the remarks about + the version string below. + +If this does not help, do the same with the following differences +-start DOS before; make now sure, that the DOS driver for the CD-ROM is + loaded under DOS (i.e. uncomment it again in config.sys) +-warm boot your PC (i.e. via CTRL-ALT-DEL) + if you have it, you can also start via loadlin (try both). + ... + Again note all commands and the aztcd-messages. + +If you see STEN_LOW or STEN_LOW_WAIT error messages, increase the timeout +values. + +If this still does not help, +-look in aztcd.c for the lines #if 0 + #define AZT_TEST1 + ... + #endif + and substitute '#if 0' by '#if 1'. +-recompile your kernel and repeat the above two procedures. You will now get + a bundle of debugging messages from the driver. Again note your commands + and the appropriate messages. If you have syslogd running, these messages + may also be found in syslogd's kernel log file. Nevertheless in some + installations syslogd does not yet run, when init() is called, thus look for + the aztcd-messages during init, before the login-prompt appears. + Then look in aztcd.c, to find out, what happened. The normal calling sequence + is: aztcd_init() during Linux bootup procedure init() + after doing a 'mount -t iso9660 /dev/aztcd0 /mnt' the normal calling sequence is + aztcd_open() -> Status 2c after cold reboot with CDROM or audio CD inserted + -> Status 8 after warm reboot with CDROM inserted + -> Status 2e after cold reboot with no disk, closed tray + -> Status 6e after cold reboot, mount with door open + aztUpdateToc() + aztGetDiskInfo() + aztGetQChannelInfo() repeated several times + aztGetToc() + aztGetQChannelInfo() repeated several times + a list of track information + do_aztcd_request() } + azt_transfer() } repeated several times + azt_poll } + Check, if there is a difference in the calling sequence or the status flags! + + There are a lot of other messages, eg. the ACMD-command code (defined in + aztcd.h), status info from the getAztStatus-command and the state sequence of + the finite state machine in azt_poll(). The most important are the status + messages, look how they are defined and try to understand, if they make + sense in the context where they appear. With a CD-ROM inserted the status + should always be 8, except in aztcd_open(). Try to open the tray, insert an + audio disk, insert no disk or reinsert the CD-ROM and check, if the status + bits change accordingly. The status bits are the most likely point, where + the drive manufacturers may implement changes. + +If you still don't succeed, a good point to start is to look in aztcd.c in +function aztcd_init, where the drive should be detected during init. Do the +following: +-reboot the system with boot parameter 'aztcd=<your base address>,0x79'. With + parameter 0x79 most of the drive version detection is bypassed. After that + you should see the complete version string including leading and trailing + blanks during init. + Now adapt the statement + if ((result[1]=='A')&&(result[2]=='Z' ...) + in aztcd_init() to exactly match the first 3 or 4 letters you have seen. +-Another point is the 'smart' card detection feature in aztcd_init(). Normally + the CD-ROM drive is ready, when aztcd_init is trying to read the version + string and a time consuming ACMD_SOFT_RESET command can be avoided. This is + detected by looking, if AFL_OP_OK can be read correctly. If the CD-ROM drive + hangs in some unknown state, e.g. because of an error before a warm start or + because you first operated under DOS, even the version string may be correct, + but the following commands will not. Then change the code in such a way, + that the ACMD_SOFT_RESET is issued in any case, by substituting the + if-statement 'if ( ...=AFL_OP_OK)' by 'if (1)'. + +If you succeed, please mail me the exact version string of your drive and +the code modifications, you have made together with a short explanation. +If you don't succeed, you may mail me the output of the debugging messages. +But remember, they are only useful, if they are exact and complete and you +describe in detail your hardware setup and what you did (cold/warm reboot, +with/without DOS, DOS-driver started/not started, which Linux-commands etc.) + + +9. TECHNICAL HISTORY OF THE DRIVER +The AZTECH-Driver is a rework of the Mitsumi-Driver. Four major items had to +be reworked: + +a) The Mitsumi drive does issue complete status information acknowledging +each command, the Aztech drive does only signal that the command was +processed. So whenever the complete status information is needed, an extra +ACMD_GET_STATUS command is issued. The handshake procedure for the drive +can be found in the functions aztSendCmd(), sendAztCmd() and getAztStatus(). + +b) The Aztech Drive does not have a ACMD_GET_DISK_INFO command, so the +necessary info about the number of tracks (firstTrack, lastTrack), disk +length etc. has to be read from the TOC in the lead in track (see function +aztGetDiskInfo()). + +c) Whenever data is read from the drive, the Mitsumi drive is started with a +command to read an indefinite (0xffffff) number of sectors. When the appropriate +number of sectors is read, the drive is stopped by a ACDM_STOP command. This +does not work with the Aztech drive. I did not find a way to stop it. The +stop and pause commands do only work in AUDIO mode but not in DATA mode. +Therefore I had to modify the 'finite state machine' in function azt_poll to +only read a certain number of sectors and then start a new read on demand. As I +have not completely understood, how the buffer/caching scheme of the Mitsumi +driver was implemented, I am not sure, if I have covered all cases correctly, +whenever you get timeout messages, the bug is most likely to be in that +function azt_poll() around switch(cmd) .... case ACD_S_DATA. + +d) I did not get information about changing drive mode. So I doubt, that the +code around function azt_poll() case AZT_S_MODE does work. In my test I have +not been able to switch to reading in raw mode. For reading raw mode, Aztech +uses a different command than for cooked mode, which I only have implemen- +ted in the ioctl-section but not in the section which is used by the ISO9660. + +The driver was developed on an AST PC with Intel 486/DX2, 8MB RAM, 340MB IDE +hard disk and on an AST PC with Intel Pentium 60MHz, 16MB RAM, 520MB IDE +running Linux kernel version 1.0.9 from the LST 1.8 Distribution. The kernel +was compiled with gcc.2.5.8. My CD-ROM drive is an Aztech CDA268-01A. My +drive says, that it has Firmware Version AZT26801A1.3. It came with an ISA-bus +interface card and works with polled I/O without DMA and without interrupts. +The code for all other drives was 'remote' tested and debugged by a number of +volunteers on the Internet. + +Points, where I feel that possible problems might be and all points where I +did not completely understand the drive's behaviour or trust my own code are +marked with /*???*/ in the source code. There are also some parts in the +Mitsumi driver, where I did not completely understand their code. + + +10. ACKNOWLEDGMENTS +Without the help of P.Bush, Aztech, who delivered technical information +about the Aztech Drive and without the help of E.Moenkeberg, GWDG, who did a +great job in analyzing the command structure of various CD-ROM drives, this +work would not have been possible. E.Moenkeberg was also a great help in +making the software 'kernel ready' and in answering many of the CDROM-related +questions in the newsgroups. He really is *the* Linux CD-ROM guru.

PROGRAMMING ADD ONs: cdplay.c +You can use the ioctl-functions included in aztcd.c in your own programs. As +an example on how to do this, you will find a tiny CD Player for audio CDs +named 'cdplay.c'. It allows you to play audio CDs. You can play a specified +track, pause and resume or skip tracks forward and backwards. If you quit the +program without stopping the drive, playing is continued. You can also +(mis)use cdplay to read and hexdump data disks. You can find the code in the +APPENDIX of this file, which you should cut out with an editor and store in a +separate file 'cdplay.c'. To compile it and make it executable, do + gcc -s -Wall -O2 -L/usr/lib cdplay.c -o /usr/local/bin/cdplay # compiles it + chmod +755 /usr/local/bin/cdplay # makes it executable + ln -s /dev/aztcd0 /dev/cdrom # creates a link + (for /usr/lib substitute the top level directory, where your include files + reside, and for /usr/local/bin the directory, where you want the executable + binary to reside ) + +You have to set the correct permissions for cdplay *and* for /dev/mcd0 or +/dev/aztcd0 in order to use it. Remember, that you should not have /dev/cdrom +mounted, when you're playing audio CDs. + +This program is just a hack for testing the ioctl-functions in aztcd.c. I will +not maintain it, so if you run into problems, discard it or have a look into +the source code 'cdplay.c'. The program does only contain a minimum of user +protection and input error detection. If you use the commands in the wrong +order or if you try to read a CD at wrong addresses, you may get error messages +or even hang your machine. If you get STEN_LOW, STEN_LOW_WAIT or segment violation +error messages when using cdplay, after that, the system might not be stable +any more, so you'd better reboot. As the ioctl-functions run in kernel mode, +most normal Linux-multitasking protection features do not work. By using +uninitialized 'wild' pointers etc., it is easy to write to other users' data +and program areas, destroy kernel tables etc.. So if you experiment with ioctls +as always when you are doing systems programming and kernel hacking, you +should have a backup copy of your system in a safe place (and you also +should try restoring from a backup copy first)! + +A reworked and improved version called 'cdtester.c', which has yet more +features for testing CDROM-drives can be found in +Documentation/cdrom/sbpcd, written by E.Moenkeberg. + +Werner Zimmermann +Fachhochschule fuer Technik Esslingen +(EMail: Werner.Zimmermann@fht-esslingen.de) +October, 1997 + +--------------------------------------------------------------------------- +APPENDIX: Source code of cdplay.c + +/* Tiny Audio CD Player + + Copyright 1994, 1995, 1996 Werner Zimmermann (Werner.Zimmermann@fht-esslingen.de) + +This program originally was written to test the audio functions of the +AZTECH.CDROM-driver, but it should work with every CD-ROM drive.

The reasons for this are +presumably +\begin{itemize} +\item + The large list of hardware devices available for the many platforms + that \linux\ now supports (\ie, i386-PCs, Sparc Suns, etc.) +\item + The open design of the operating system, such that anybody can write a + driver for \linux. +\item + There is plenty of source code around as examples of how to write a driver. +\end{itemize} +The openness of \linux, and the many different types of available +hardware has allowed \linux\ to support many different hardware devices. +Unfortunately, the very openness that has allowed \linux\ to support +all these different devices has also allowed the behavior of each +device driver to differ significantly from one device to another. +This divergence of behavior has been very significant for \cdrom\ +devices; the way a particular drive reacts to a `standard' $ioctl()$ +call varies greatly from one device driver to another. To avoid making +their drivers totally inconsistent, the writers of \linux\ \cdrom\ +drivers generally created new device drivers by understanding, copying, +and then changing an existing one. Unfortunately, this practice did not +maintain uniform behavior across all the \linux\ \cdrom\ drivers. + +This document describes an effort to establish Uniform behavior across +all the different \cdrom\ device drivers for \linux. This document also +defines the various $ioctl$s, and how the low-level \cdrom\ device +drivers should implement them. Currently (as of the \linux\ 2.1.$x$ +development kernels) several low-level \cdrom\ device drivers, including +both IDE/ATAPI and SCSI, now use this Uniform interface. + +When the \cdrom\ was developed, the interface between the \cdrom\ drive +and the computer was not specified in the standards. As a result, many +different \cdrom\ interfaces were developed. Some of them had their +own proprietary design (Sony, Mitsumi, Panasonic, Philips), other +manufacturers adopted an existing electrical interface and changed +the functionality (CreativeLabs/SoundBlaster, Teac, Funai) or simply +adapted their drives to one or more of the already existing electrical +interfaces (Aztech, Sanyo, Funai, Vertos, Longshine, Optics Storage and +most of the `NoName' manufacturers). In cases where a new drive really +brought its own interface or used its own command set and flow control +scheme, either a separate driver had to be written, or an existing +driver had to be enhanced. History has delivered us \cdrom\ support for +many of these different interfaces. Nowadays, almost all new \cdrom\ +drives are either IDE/ATAPI or SCSI, and it is very unlikely that any +manufacturer will create a new interface. Even finding drives for the +old proprietary interfaces is getting difficult. + +When (in the 1.3.70's) I looked at the existing software interface, +which was expressed through \cdromh, it appeared to be a rather wild +set of commands and data formats.\footnote{I cannot recollect what +kernel version I looked at, then, presumably 1.2.13 and 1.3.34---the +latest kernel that I was indirectly involved in.} It seemed that many +features of the software interface had been added to accommodate the +capabilities of a particular drive, in an {\fo ad hoc\/} manner. More +importantly, it appeared that the behavior of the `standard' commands +was different for most of the different drivers: \eg, some drivers +close the tray if an $open()$ call occurs when the tray is open, while +others do not. Some drivers lock the door upon opening the device, to +prevent an incoherent file system, but others don't, to allow software +ejection. Undoubtedly, the capabilities of the different drives vary, +but even when two drives have the same capability their drivers' +behavior was usually different. + +I decided to start a discussion on how to make all the \linux\ \cdrom\ +drivers behave more uniformly. I began by contacting the developers of +the many \cdrom\ drivers found in the \linux\ kernel. Their reactions +encouraged me to write the \UCD\ which this document is intended to +describe. The implementation of the \UCD\ is in the file \cdromc. This +driver is intended to be an additional software layer that sits on top +of the low-level device drivers for each \cdrom\ drive. By adding this +additional layer, it is possible to have all the different \cdrom\ +devices behave {\em exactly\/} the same (insofar as the underlying +hardware will allow). + +The goal of the \UCD\ is {\em not\/} to alienate driver developers who +have not yet taken steps to support this effort. The goal of \UCD\ is +simply to give people writing application programs for \cdrom\ drives +{\em one\/} \linux\ \cdrom\ interface with consistent behavior for all +\cdrom\ devices. In addition, this also provides a consistent interface +between the low-level device driver code and the \linux\ kernel. Care +is taken that 100\,\% compatibility exists with the data structures and +programmer's interface defined in \cdromh. This guide was written to +help \cdrom\ driver developers adapt their code to use the \UCD\ code +defined in \cdromc. + +Personally, I think that the most important hardware interfaces are +the IDE/ATAPI drives and, of course, the SCSI drives, but as prices +of hardware drop continuously, it is also likely that people may have +more than one \cdrom\ drive, possibly of mixed types. It is important +that these drives behave in the same way. In December 1994, one of the +cheapest \cdrom\ drives was a Philips cm206, a double-speed proprietary +drive. In the months that I was busy writing a \linux\ driver for it, +proprietary drives became obsolete and IDE/ATAPI drives became the +standard. At the time of the last update to this document (November +1997) it is becoming difficult to even {\em find} anything less than a +16 speed \cdrom\ drive, and 24 speed drives are common. + +\newsection{Standardizing through another software level} +\label{cdrom.c} + +At the time this document was conceived, all drivers directly +implemented the \cdrom\ $ioctl()$ calls through their own routines. This +led to the danger of different drivers forgetting to do important things +like checking that the user was giving the driver valid data. More +importantly, this led to the divergence of behavior, which has already +been discussed. + +For this reason, the \UCD\ was created to enforce consistent \cdrom\ +drive behavior, and to provide a common set of services to the various +low-level \cdrom\ device drivers. The \UCD\ now provides another +software-level, that separates the $ioctl()$ and $open()$ implementation +from the actual hardware implementation. Note that this effort has +made few changes which will affect a user's application programs. The +greatest change involved moving the contents of the various low-level +\cdrom\ drivers' header files to the kernel's cdrom directory. This was +done to help ensure that the user is only presented with only one cdrom +interface, the interface defined in \cdromh. + +\cdrom\ drives are specific enough (\ie, different from other +block-devices such as floppy or hard disc drives), to define a set +of common {\em \cdrom\ device operations}, $<cdrom-device>_dops$. +These operations are different from the classical block-device file +operations, $<block-device>_fops$. + +The routines for the \UCD\ interface level are implemented in the file +\cdromc. In this file, the \UCD\ interfaces with the kernel as a block +device by registering the following general $struct\ file_operations$: +$$ +\halign{$#$\ \hfil&$#$\ \hfil&$/*$ \rm# $*/$\hfil\cr +struct& file_operations\ cdrom_fops = \{\hidewidth\cr + &NULL, & lseek \cr + &block_read, & read---general block-dev read \cr + &block_write, & write---general block-dev write \cr + &NULL, & readdir \cr + &NULL, & select \cr + &cdrom_ioctl, & ioctl \cr + &NULL, & mmap \cr + &cdrom_open, & open \cr + &cdrom_release, & release \cr + &NULL, & fsync \cr + &NULL, & fasync \cr + &cdrom_media_changed, & media change \cr + &NULL & revalidate \cr +\};\cr +} +$$ + +Every active \cdrom\ device shares this $struct$. The routines +declared above are all implemented in \cdromc, since this file is the +place where the behavior of all \cdrom-devices is defined and +standardized. The actual interface to the various types of \cdrom\ +hardware is still performed by various low-level \cdrom-device +drivers. These routines simply implement certain {\em capabilities\/} +that are common to all \cdrom\ (and really, all removable-media +devices). + +Registration of a low-level \cdrom\ device driver is now done through +the general routines in \cdromc, not through the Virtual File System +(VFS) any more. The interface implemented in \cdromc\ is carried out +through two general structures that contain information about the +capabilities of the driver, and the specific drives on which the +driver operates. The structures are: +\begin{description} +\item[$cdrom_device_ops$] + This structure contains information about the low-level driver for a + \cdrom\ device. This structure is conceptually connected to the major + number of the device (although some drivers may have different + major numbers, as is the case for the IDE driver). +\item[$cdrom_device_info$] + This structure contains information about a particular \cdrom\ drive, + such as its device name, speed, etc. This structure is conceptually + connected to the minor number of the device. +\end{description} + +Registering a particular \cdrom\ drive with the \UCD\ is done by the +low-level device driver though a call to: +$$register_cdrom(struct\ cdrom_device_info * <device>_info) +$$ +The device information structure, $<device>_info$, contains all the +information needed for the kernel to interface with the low-level +\cdrom\ device driver. One of the most important entries in this +structure is a pointer to the $cdrom_device_ops$ structure of the +low-level driver. + +The device operations structure, $cdrom_device_ops$, contains a list +of pointers to the functions which are implemented in the low-level +device driver. When \cdromc\ accesses a \cdrom\ device, it does it +through the functions in this structure. It is impossible to know all +the capabilities of future \cdrom\ drives, so it is expected that this +list may need to be expanded from time to time as new technologies are +developed. For example, CD-R and CD-R/W drives are beginning to become +popular, and support will soon need to be added for them. For now, the +current $struct$ is: +$$ +\halign{$#$\ \hfil&$#$\ \hfil&\hbox to 10em{$#$\hss}& + $/*$ \rm# $*/$\hfil\cr +struct& cdrom_device_ops\ \{ \hidewidth\cr + &int& (* open)(struct\ cdrom_device_info *, int)\cr + &void& (* release)(struct\ cdrom_device_info *);\cr + &int& (* drive_status)(struct\ cdrom_device_info *, int);\cr + &int& (* media_changed)(struct\ cdrom_device_info *, int);\cr + &int& (* tray_move)(struct\ cdrom_device_info *, int);\cr + &int& (* lock_door)(struct\ cdrom_device_info *, int);\cr + &int& (* select_speed)(struct\ cdrom_device_info *, int);\cr + &int& (* select_disc)(struct\ cdrom_device_info *, int);\cr + &int& (* get_last_session) (struct\ cdrom_device_info *, + struct\ cdrom_multisession *{});\cr + &int& (* get_mcn)(struct\ cdrom_device_info *, struct\ cdrom_mcn *{});\cr + &int& (* reset)(struct\ cdrom_device_info *);\cr + &int& (* audio_ioctl)(struct\ cdrom_device_info *, unsigned\ int, + void *{});\cr + &int& (* dev_ioctl)(struct\ cdrom_device_info *, unsigned\ int, + unsigned\ long);\cr +\noalign{\medskip} + &const\ int& capability;& capability flags \cr + &int& n_minors;& number of active minor devices \cr +\};\cr +} +$$ +When a low-level device driver implements one of these capabilities, +it should add a function pointer to this $struct$. When a particular +function is not implemented, however, this $struct$ should contain a +NULL instead. The $capability$ flags specify the capabilities of the +\cdrom\ hardware and/or low-level \cdrom\ driver when a \cdrom\ drive +is registered with the \UCD. The value $n_minors$ should be a positive +value indicating the number of minor devices that are supported by +the low-level device driver, normally~1. Although these two variables +are `informative' rather than `operational,' they are included in +$cdrom_device_ops$ because they describe the capability of the {\em +driver\/} rather than the {\em drive}. Nomenclature has always been +difficult in computer programming. + +Note that most functions have fewer parameters than their +$blkdev_fops$ counterparts. This is because very little of the +information in the structures $inode$ and $file$ is used. For most +drivers, the main parameter is the $struct$ $cdrom_device_info$, from +which the major and minor number can be extracted. (Most low-level +\cdrom\ drivers don't even look at the major and minor number though, +since many of them only support one device.) This will be available +through $dev$ in $cdrom_device_info$ described below. + +The drive-specific, minor-like information that is registered with +\cdromc, currently contains the following fields: +$$ +\halign{$#$\ \hfil&$#$\ \hfil&\hbox to 10em{$#$\hss}& + $/*$ \rm# $*/$\hfil\cr +struct& cdrom_device_info\ \{ \hidewidth\cr + & struct\ cdrom_device_ops *& ops;& device operations for this major\cr + & struct\ cdrom_device_info *& next;& next device_info for this major\cr + & void *& handle;& driver-dependent data\cr +\noalign{\medskip} + & kdev_t& dev;& device number (incorporates minor)\cr + & int& mask;& mask of capability: disables them \cr + & int& speed;& maximum speed for reading data \cr + & int& capacity;& number of discs in a jukebox \cr +\noalign{\medskip} + &int& options : 30;& options flags \cr + &unsigned& mc_flags : 2;& media-change buffer flags \cr + & int& use_count;& number of times device is opened\cr + & char& name[20];& name of the device type\cr +\}\cr +}$$ +Using this $struct$, a linked list of the registered minor devices is +built, using the $next$ field. The device number, the device operations +struct and specifications of properties of the drive are stored in this +structure. + +The $mask$ flags can be used to mask out some of the capabilities listed +in $ops\to capability$, if a specific drive doesn't support a feature +of the driver. The value $speed$ specifies the maximum head-rate of the +drive, measured in units of normal audio speed (176\,kB/sec raw data or +150\,kB/sec file system data). The value $n_discs$ should reflect the +number of discs the drive can hold simultaneously, if it is designed +as a juke-box, or otherwise~1. The parameters are declared $const$ +because they describe properties of the drive, which don't change after +registration. + +A few registers contain variables local to the \cdrom\ drive. The +flags $options$ are used to specify how the general \cdrom\ routines +should behave. These various flags registers should provide enough +flexibility to adapt to the different users' wishes (and {\em not\/} the +`arbitrary' wishes of the author of the low-level device driver, as is +the case in the old scheme). The register $mc_flags$ is used to buffer +the information from $media_changed()$ to two separate queues. Other +data that is specific to a minor drive, can be accessed through $handle$, +which can point to a data structure specific to the low-level driver. +The fields $use_count$, $next$, $options$ and $mc_flags$ need not be +initialized. + +The intermediate software layer that \cdromc\ forms will perform some +additional bookkeeping. The use count of the device (the number of +processes that have the device opened) is registered in $use_count$. The +function $cdrom_ioctl()$ will verify the appropriate user-memory regions +for read and write, and in case a location on the CD is transferred, +it will `sanitize' the format by making requests to the low-level +drivers in a standard format, and translating all formats between the +user-software and low level drivers. This relieves much of the drivers' +memory checking and format checking and translation. Also, the necessary +structures will be declared on the program stack. + +The implementation of the functions should be as defined in the +following sections. Two functions {\em must\/} be implemented, namely +$open()$ and $release()$. Other functions may be omitted, their +corresponding capability flags will be cleared upon registration. +Generally, a function returns zero on success and negative on error. A +function call should return only after the command has completed, but of +course waiting for the device should not use processor time. + +\subsection{$Int\ open(struct\ cdrom_device_info * cdi, int\ purpose)$} + +$Open()$ should try to open the device for a specific $purpose$, which +can be either: +\begin{itemize} +\item[0] Open for reading data, as done by {\tt {mount()}} (2), or the +user commands {\tt {dd}} or {\tt {cat}}. +\item[1] Open for $ioctl$ commands, as done by audio-CD playing +programs. +\end{itemize} +Notice that any strategic code (closing tray upon $open()$, etc.)\ is +done by the calling routine in \cdromc, so the low-level routine +should only be concerned with proper initialization, such as spinning +up the disc, etc. % and device-use count + + +\subsection{$Void\ release(struct\ cdrom_device_info * cdi)$} + + +Device-specific actions should be taken such as spinning down the device. +However, strategic actions such as ejection of the tray, or unlocking +the door, should be left over to the general routine $cdrom_release()$. +This is the only function returning type $void$. + +\subsection{$Int\ drive_status(struct\ cdrom_device_info * cdi, int\ slot_nr)$} +\label{drive status} + +The function $drive_status$, if implemented, should provide +information on the status of the drive (not the status of the disc, +which may or may not be in the drive). If the drive is not a changer, +$slot_nr$ should be ignored. In \cdromh\ the possibilities are listed: +$$ +\halign{$#$\ \hfil&$/*$ \rm# $*/$\hfil\cr +CDS_NO_INFO& no information available\cr +CDS_NO_DISC& no disc is inserted, tray is closed\cr +CDS_TRAY_OPEN& tray is opened\cr +CDS_DRIVE_NOT_READY& something is wrong, tray is moving?\cr +CDS_DISC_OK& a disc is loaded and everything is fine\cr +} +$$ + +\subsection{$Int\ media_changed(struct\ cdrom_device_info * cdi, int\ disc_nr)$} + +This function is very similar to the original function in $struct\ +file_operations$. It returns 1 if the medium of the device $cdi\to +dev$ has changed since the last call, and 0 otherwise. The parameter +$disc_nr$ identifies a specific slot in a juke-box, it should be +ignored for single-disc drives. Note that by `re-routing' this +function through $cdrom_media_changed()$, we can implement separate +queues for the VFS and a new $ioctl()$ function that can report device +changes to software (\eg, an auto-mounting daemon). + +\subsection{$Int\ tray_move(struct\ cdrom_device_info * cdi, int\ position)$} + +This function, if implemented, should control the tray movement. (No +other function should control this.) The parameter $position$ controls +the desired direction of movement: +\begin{itemize} +\item[0] Close tray +\item[1] Open tray +\end{itemize} +This function returns 0 upon success, and a non-zero value upon +error. Note that if the tray is already in the desired position, no +action need be taken, and the return value should be 0. + +\subsection{$Int\ lock_door(struct\ cdrom_device_info * cdi, int\ lock)$} + +This function (and no other code) controls locking of the door, if the +drive allows this. The value of $lock$ controls the desired locking +state: +\begin{itemize} +\item[0] Unlock door, manual opening is allowed +\item[1] Lock door, tray cannot be ejected manually +\end{itemize} +This function returns 0 upon success, and a non-zero value upon +error. Note that if the door is already in the requested state, no +action need be taken, and the return value should be 0. + +\subsection{$Int\ select_speed(struct\ cdrom_device_info * cdi, int\ speed)$} + +Some \cdrom\ drives are capable of changing their head-speed. There +are several reasons for changing the speed of a \cdrom\ drive. Badly +pressed \cdrom s may benefit from less-than-maximum head rate. Modern +\cdrom\ drives can obtain very high head rates (up to $24\times$ is +common). It has been reported that these drives can make reading +errors at these high speeds, reducing the speed can prevent data loss +in these circumstances. Finally, some of these drives can +make an annoyingly loud noise, which a lower speed may reduce. %Finally, +%although the audio-low-pass filters probably aren't designed for it, +%more than real-time playback of audio might be used for high-speed +%copying of audio tracks. + +This function specifies the speed at which data is read or audio is +played back. The value of $speed$ specifies the head-speed of the +drive, measured in units of standard cdrom speed (176\,kB/sec raw data +or 150\,kB/sec file system data). So to request that a \cdrom\ drive +operate at 300\,kB/sec you would call the CDROM_SELECT_SPEED $ioctl$ +with $speed=2$. The special value `0' means `auto-selection', \ie, +maximum data-rate or real-time audio rate. If the drive doesn't have +this `auto-selection' capability, the decision should be made on the +current disc loaded and the return value should be positive. A negative +return value indicates an error. + +\subsection{$Int\ select_disc(struct\ cdrom_device_info * cdi, int\ number)$} + +If the drive can store multiple discs (a juke-box) this function +will perform disc selection. It should return the number of the +selected disc on success, a negative value on error. Currently, only +the ide-cd driver supports this functionality. + +\subsection{$Int\ get_last_session(struct\ cdrom_device_info * cdi, struct\ + cdrom_multisession * ms_info)$} + +This function should implement the old corresponding $ioctl()$. For +device $cdi\to dev$, the start of the last session of the current disc +should be returned in the pointer argument $ms_info$. Note that +routines in \cdromc\ have sanitized this argument: its requested +format will {\em always\/} be of the type $CDROM_LBA$ (linear block +addressing mode), whatever the calling software requested. But +sanitization goes even further: the low-level implementation may +return the requested information in $CDROM_MSF$ format if it wishes so +(setting the $ms_info\rightarrow addr_format$ field appropriately, of +course) and the routines in \cdromc\ will make the transformation if +necessary. The return value is 0 upon success. + +\subsection{$Int\ get_mcn(struct\ cdrom_device_info * cdi, struct\ + cdrom_mcn * mcn)$} + +Some discs carry a `Media Catalog Number' (MCN), also called +`Universal Product Code' (UPC). This number should reflect the number +that is generally found in the bar-code on the product. Unfortunately, +the few discs that carry such a number on the disc don't even use the +same format. The return argument to this function is a pointer to a +pre-declared memory region of type $struct\ cdrom_mcn$. The MCN is +expected as a 13-character string, terminated by a null-character. + +\subsection{$Int\ reset(struct\ cdrom_device_info * cdi)$} + +This call should perform a hard-reset on the drive (although in +circumstances that a hard-reset is necessary, a drive may very well not +listen to commands anymore). Preferably, control is returned to the +caller only after the drive has finished resetting. If the drive is no +longer listening, it may be wise for the underlying low-level cdrom +driver to time out. + +\subsection{$Int\ audio_ioctl(struct\ cdrom_device_info * cdi, unsigned\ + int\ cmd, void * arg)$} + +Some of the \cdrom-$ioctl$s defined in \cdromh\ can be +implemented by the routines described above, and hence the function +$cdrom_ioctl$ will use those. However, most $ioctl$s deal with +audio-control. We have decided to leave these to be accessed through a +single function, repeating the arguments $cmd$ and $arg$. Note that +the latter is of type $void*{}$, rather than $unsigned\ long\ +int$. The routine $cdrom_ioctl()$ does do some useful things, +though. It sanitizes the address format type to $CDROM_MSF$ (Minutes, +Seconds, Frames) for all audio calls. It also verifies the memory +location of $arg$, and reserves stack-memory for the argument. This +makes implementation of the $audio_ioctl()$ much simpler than in the +old driver scheme. For example, you may look up the function +$cm206_audio_ioctl()$ in {\tt {cm206.c}} that should be updated with +this documentation. + +An unimplemented ioctl should return $-ENOSYS$, but a harmless request +(\eg, $CDROMSTART$) may be ignored by returning 0 (success). Other +errors should be according to the standards, whatever they are. When +an error is returned by the low-level driver, the \UCD\ tries whenever +possible to return the error code to the calling program. (We may decide +to sanitize the return value in $cdrom_ioctl()$ though, in order to +guarantee a uniform interface to the audio-player software.) + +\subsection{$Int\ dev_ioctl(struct\ cdrom_device_info * cdi, unsigned\ int\ + cmd, unsigned\ long\ arg)$} + +Some $ioctl$s seem to be specific to certain \cdrom\ drives. That is, +they are introduced to service some capabilities of certain drives. In +fact, there are 6 different $ioctl$s for reading data, either in some +particular kind of format, or audio data. Not many drives support +reading audio tracks as data, I believe this is because of protection +of copyrights of artists. Moreover, I think that if audio-tracks are +supported, it should be done through the VFS and not via $ioctl$s. A +problem here could be the fact that audio-frames are 2352 bytes long, +so either the audio-file-system should ask for 75264 bytes at once +(the least common multiple of 512 and 2352), or the drivers should +bend their backs to cope with this incoherence (to which I would be +opposed). Furthermore, it is very difficult for the hardware to find +the exact frame boundaries, since there are no synchronization headers +in audio frames. Once these issues are resolved, this code should be +standardized in \cdromc. + +Because there are so many $ioctl$s that seem to be introduced to +satisfy certain drivers,\footnote{Is there software around that + actually uses these? I'd be interested!} any `non-standard' $ioctl$s +are routed through the call $dev_ioctl()$. In principle, `private' +$ioctl$s should be numbered after the device's major number, and not +the general \cdrom\ $ioctl$ number, {\tt {0x53}}. Currently the +non-supported $ioctl$s are: {\it CDROMREADMODE1, CDROMREADMODE2, + CDROMREADAUDIO, CDROMREADRAW, CDROMREADCOOKED, CDROMSEEK, + CDROMPLAY\-BLK and CDROM\-READALL}. + + +\subsection{\cdrom\ capabilities} +\label{capability} + +Instead of just implementing some $ioctl$ calls, the interface in +\cdromc\ supplies the possibility to indicate the {\em capabilities\/} +of a \cdrom\ drive. This can be done by ORing any number of +capability-constants that are defined in \cdromh\ at the registration +phase. Currently, the capabilities are any of: +$$ +\halign{$#$\ \hfil&$/*$ \rm# $*/$\hfil\cr +CDC_CLOSE_TRAY& can close tray by software control\cr +CDC_OPEN_TRAY& can open tray\cr +CDC_LOCK& can lock and unlock the door\cr +CDC_SELECT_SPEED& can select speed, in units of $\sim$150\,kB/s\cr +CDC_SELECT_DISC& drive is juke-box\cr +CDC_MULTI_SESSION& can read sessions $>\rm1$\cr +CDC_MCN& can read Media Catalog Number\cr +CDC_MEDIA_CHANGED& can report if disc has changed\cr +CDC_PLAY_AUDIO& can perform audio-functions (play, pause, etc)\cr +CDC_RESET& hard reset device\cr +CDC_IOCTLS& driver has non-standard ioctls\cr +CDC_DRIVE_STATUS& driver implements drive status\cr +} +$$ +The capability flag is declared $const$, to prevent drivers from +accidentally tampering with the contents. The capability fags actually +inform \cdromc\ of what the driver can do. If the drive found +by the driver does not have the capability, is can be masked out by +the $cdrom_device_info$ variable $mask$. For instance, the SCSI \cdrom\ +driver has implemented the code for loading and ejecting \cdrom's, and +hence its corresponding flags in $capability$ will be set. But a SCSI +\cdrom\ drive might be a caddy system, which can't load the tray, and +hence for this drive the $cdrom_device_info$ struct will have set +the $CDC_CLOSE_TRAY$ bit in $mask$. + +In the file \cdromc\ you will encounter many constructions of the type +$$\it +if\ (cdo\rightarrow capability \mathrel\& \mathord{\sim} cdi\rightarrow mask + \mathrel{\&} CDC_<capability>) \ldots +$$ +There is no $ioctl$ to set the mask\dots The reason is that +I think it is better to control the {\em behavior\/} rather than the +{\em capabilities}. + +\subsection{Options} + +A final flag register controls the {\em behavior\/} of the \cdrom\ +drives, in order to satisfy different users' wishes, hopefully +independently of the ideas of the respective author who happened to +have made the drive's support available to the \linux\ community. The +current behavior options are: +$$ +\halign{$#$\ \hfil&$/*$ \rm# $*/$\hfil\cr +CDO_AUTO_CLOSE& try to close tray upon device $open()$\cr +CDO_AUTO_EJECT& try to open tray on last device $close()$\cr +CDO_USE_FFLAGS& use $file_pointer\rightarrow f_flags$ to indicate + purpose for $open()$\cr +CDO_LOCK& try to lock door if device is opened\cr +CDO_CHECK_TYPE& ensure disc type is data if opened for data\cr +} +$$ + +The initial value of this register is $CDO_AUTO_CLOSE \mathrel| +CDO_USE_FFLAGS \mathrel| CDO_LOCK$, reflecting my own view on user +interface and software standards. Before you protest, there are two +new $ioctl$s implemented in \cdromc, that allow you to control the +behavior by software. These are: +$$ +\halign{$#$\ \hfil&$/*$ \rm# $*/$\hfil\cr +CDROM_SET_OPTIONS& set options specified in $(int)\ arg$\cr +CDROM_CLEAR_OPTIONS& clear options specified in $(int)\ arg$\cr +} +$$ +One option needs some more explanation: $CDO_USE_FFLAGS$. In the next +newsection we explain what the need for this option is. + +A software package {\tt setcd}, available from the Debian distribution +and {\tt sunsite.unc.edu}, allows user level control of these flags. + +\newsection{The need to know the purpose of opening the \cdrom\ device} + +Traditionally, Unix devices can be used in two different `modes', +either by reading/writing to the device file, or by issuing +controlling commands to the device, by the device's $ioctl()$ +call. The problem with \cdrom\ drives, is that they can be used for +two entirely different purposes. One is to mount removable +file systems, \cdrom s, the other is to play audio CD's. Audio commands +are implemented entirely through $ioctl$s, presumably because the +first implementation (SUN?) has been such. In principle there is +nothing wrong with this, but a good control of the `CD player' demands +that the device can {\em always\/} be opened in order to give the +$ioctl$ commands, regardless of the state the drive is in. + +On the other hand, when used as a removable-media disc drive (what the +original purpose of \cdrom s is) we would like to make sure that the +disc drive is ready for operation upon opening the device. In the old +scheme, some \cdrom\ drivers don't do any integrity checking, resulting +in a number of i/o errors reported by the VFS to the kernel when an +attempt for mounting a \cdrom\ on an empty drive occurs. This is not a +particularly elegant way to find out that there is no \cdrom\ inserted; +it more-or-less looks like the old IBM-PC trying to read an empty floppy +drive for a couple of seconds, after which the system complains it +can't read from it. Nowadays we can {\em sense\/} the existence of a +removable medium in a drive, and we believe we should exploit that +fact. An integrity check on opening of the device, that verifies the +availability of a \cdrom\ and its correct type (data), would be +desirable. + +These two ways of using a \cdrom\ drive, principally for data and +secondarily for playing audio discs, have different demands for the +behavior of the $open()$ call. Audio use simply wants to open the +device in order to get a file handle which is needed for issuing +$ioctl$ commands, while data use wants to open for correct and +reliable data transfer. The only way user programs can indicate what +their {\em purpose\/} of opening the device is, is through the $flags$ +parameter (see {\tt {open(2)}}). For \cdrom\ devices, these flags aren't +implemented (some drivers implement checking for write-related flags, +but this is not strictly necessary if the device file has correct +permission flags). Most option flags simply don't make sense to +\cdrom\ devices: $O_CREAT$, $O_NOCTTY$, $O_TRUNC$, $O_APPEND$, and +$O_SYNC$ have no meaning to a \cdrom. + +We therefore propose to use the flag $O_NONBLOCK$ to indicate +that the device is opened just for issuing $ioctl$ +commands. Strictly, the meaning of $O_NONBLOCK$ is that opening and +subsequent calls to the device don't cause the calling process to +wait. We could interpret this as ``don't wait until someone has +inserted some valid data-\cdrom.'' Thus, our proposal of the +implementation for the $open()$ call for \cdrom s is: +\begin{itemize} +\item If no other flags are set than $O_RDONLY$, the device is opened +for data transfer, and the return value will be 0 only upon successful +initialization of the transfer. The call may even induce some actions +on the \cdrom, such as closing the tray. +\item If the option flag $O_NONBLOCK$ is set, opening will always be +successful, unless the whole device doesn't exist. The drive will take +no actions whatsoever. +\end{itemize} + +\subsection{And what about standards?} + +You might hesitate to accept this proposal as it comes from the +\linux\ community, and not from some standardizing institute. What +about SUN, SGI, HP and all those other Unix and hardware vendors? +Well, these companies are in the lucky position that they generally +control both the hardware and software of their supported products, +and are large enough to set their own standard. They do not have to +deal with a dozen or more different, competing hardware +configurations.\footnote{Incidentally, I think that SUN's approach to +mounting \cdrom s is very good in origin: under Solaris a +volume-daemon automatically mounts a newly inserted \cdrom\ under {\tt +{/cdrom/$<volume-name>$/}}. In my opinion they should have pushed this +further and have {\em every\/} \cdrom\ on the local area network be +mounted at the similar location, \ie, no matter in which particular +machine you insert a \cdrom, it will always appear at the same +position in the directory tree, on every system. When I wanted to +implement such a user-program for \linux, I came across the +differences in behavior of the various drivers, and the need for an +$ioctl$ informing about media changes.} + +We believe that using $O_NONBLOCK$ to indicate that a device is being opened +for $ioctl$ commands only can be easily introduced in the \linux\ +community. All the CD-player authors will have to be informed, we can +even send in our own patches to the programs. The use of $O_NONBLOCK$ +has most likely no influence on the behavior of the CD-players on +other operating systems than \linux. Finally, a user can always revert +to old behavior by a call to $ioctl(file_descriptor, CDROM_CLEAR_OPTIONS, +CDO_USE_FFLAGS)$. + +\subsection{The preferred strategy of $open()$} + +The routines in \cdromc\ are designed in such a way that run-time +configuration of the behavior of \cdrom\ devices (of {\em any\/} type) +can be carried out, by the $CDROM_SET/CLEAR_OPTIONS$ $ioctls$. Thus, various +modes of operation can be set: +\begin{description} +\item[$CDO_AUTO_CLOSE \mathrel| CDO_USE_FFLAGS \mathrel| CDO_LOCK$] This +is the default setting. (With $CDO_CHECK_TYPE$ it will be better, in the +future.) If the device is not yet opened by any other process, and if +the device is being opened for data ($O_NONBLOCK$ is not set) and the +tray is found to be open, an attempt to close the tray is made. Then, +it is verified that a disc is in the drive and, if $CDO_CHECK_TYPE$ is +set, that it contains tracks of type `data mode 1.' Only if all tests +are passed is the return value zero. The door is locked to prevent file +system corruption. If the drive is opened for audio ($O_NONBLOCK$ is +set), no actions are taken and a value of 0 will be returned. +\item[$CDO_AUTO_CLOSE \mathrel| CDO_AUTO_EJECT \mathrel| CDO_LOCK$] This +mimics the behavior of the current sbpcd-driver. The option flags are +ignored, the tray is closed on the first open, if necessary. Similarly, +the tray is opened on the last release, \ie, if a \cdrom\ is unmounted, +it is automatically ejected, such that the user can replace it. +\end{description} +We hope that these option can convince everybody (both driver +maintainers and user program developers) to adopt the new \cdrom\ +driver scheme and option flag interpretation. + +\newsection{Description of routines in \cdromc} + +Only a few routines in \cdromc\ are exported to the drivers. In this +new section we will discuss these, as well as the functions that `take +over' the \cdrom\ interface to the kernel. The header file belonging +to \cdromc\ is called \cdromh. Formerly, some of the contents of this +file were placed in the file {\tt {ucdrom.h}}, but this file has now been +merged back into \cdromh. + +\subsection{$Struct\ file_operations\ cdrom_fops$} + +The contents of this structure were described in section~\ref{cdrom.c}. +A pointer to this structure is assigned to the $fops$ field +of the $struct gendisk$. + +\subsection{$Int\ register_cdrom( struct\ cdrom_device_info\ * cdi)$} + +This function is used in about the same way one registers $cdrom_fops$ +with the kernel, the device operations and information structures, +as described in section~\ref{cdrom.c}, should be registered with the +\UCD: +$$ +register_cdrom(\&<device>_info)); +$$ +This function returns zero upon success, and non-zero upon +failure. The structure $<device>_info$ should have a pointer to the +driver's $<device>_dops$, as in +$$ +\vbox{\halign{&$#$\hfil\cr +struct\ &cdrom_device_info\ <device>_info = \{\cr +& <device>_dops;\cr +&\ldots\cr +\}\cr +}}$$ +Note that a driver must have one static structure, $<device>_dops$, while +it may have as many structures $<device>_info$ as there are minor devices +active. $Register_cdrom()$ builds a linked list from these. + +\subsection{$Int\ unregister_cdrom(struct\ cdrom_device_info * cdi)$} + +Unregistering device $cdi$ with minor number $MINOR(cdi\to dev)$ removes +the minor device from the list. If it was the last registered minor for +the low-level driver, this disconnects the registered device-operation +routines from the \cdrom\ interface. This function returns zero upon +success, and non-zero upon failure. + +\subsection{$Int\ cdrom_open(struct\ inode * ip, struct\ file * fp)$} + +This function is not called directly by the low-level drivers, it is +listed in the standard $cdrom_fops$. If the VFS opens a file, this +function becomes active. A strategy is implemented in this routine, +taking care of all capabilities and options that are set in the +$cdrom_device_ops$ connected to the device. Then, the program flow is +transferred to the device_dependent $open()$ call. + +\subsection{$Void\ cdrom_release(struct\ inode *ip, struct\ file +*fp)$} + +This function implements the reverse-logic of $cdrom_open()$, and then +calls the device-dependent $release()$ routine.

The different calls fall into three +categories: $ioctl$s that can be directly implemented by device +operations, ones that are routed through the call $audio_ioctl()$, and +the remaining ones, that are presumable device-dependent. Generally, a +negative return value indicates an error. + +\subsubsection{Directly implemented $ioctl$s} +\label{ioctl-direct} + +The following `old' \cdrom-$ioctl$s are implemented by directly +calling device-operations in $cdrom_device_ops$, if implemented and +not masked: +\begin{description} +\item[CDROMMULTISESSION] Requests the last session on a \cdrom. +\item[CDROMEJECT] Open tray. +\item[CDROMCLOSETRAY] Close tray. +\item[CDROMEJECT_SW] If $arg\not=0$, set behavior to auto-close (close +tray on first open) and auto-eject (eject on last release), otherwise +set behavior to non-moving on $open()$ and $release()$ calls. +\item[CDROM_GET_MCN] Get the Media Catalog Number from a CD. +\end{description} + +\subsubsection{$Ioctl$s routed through $audio_ioctl()$} +\label{ioctl-audio} + +The following set of $ioctl$s are all implemented through a call to +the $cdrom_fops$ function $audio_ioctl()$. Memory checks and +allocation are performed in $cdrom_ioctl()$, and also sanitization of +address format ($CDROM_LBA$/$CDROM_MSF$) is done. +\begin{description} +\item[CDROMSUBCHNL] Get sub-channel data in argument $arg$ of type $struct\ +cdrom_subchnl *{}$. +\item[CDROMREADTOCHDR] Read Table of Contents header, in $arg$ of type +$struct\ cdrom_tochdr *{}$. +\item[CDROMREADTOCENTRY] Read a Table of Contents entry in $arg$ and +specified by $arg$ of type $struct\ cdrom_tocentry *{}$. +\item[CDROMPLAYMSF] Play audio fragment specified in Minute, Second, +Frame format, delimited by $arg$ of type $struct\ cdrom_msf *{}$. +\item[CDROMPLAYTRKIND] Play audio fragment in track-index format +delimited by $arg$ of type $struct\ \penalty-1000 cdrom_ti *{}$. +\item[CDROMVOLCTRL] Set volume specified by $arg$ of type $struct\ +cdrom_volctrl *{}$. +\item[CDROMVOLREAD] Read volume into by $arg$ of type $struct\ +cdrom_volctrl *{}$. +\item[CDROMSTART] Spin up disc. +\item[CDROMSTOP] Stop playback of audio fragment. +\item[CDROMPAUSE] Pause playback of audio fragment. +\item[CDROMRESUME] Resume playing. +\end{description} + +\subsubsection{New $ioctl$s in \cdromc} + +The following $ioctl$s have been introduced to allow user programs to +control the behavior of individual \cdrom\ devices. New $ioctl$ +commands can be identified by the underscores in their names. +\begin{description} +\item[CDROM_SET_OPTIONS] Set options specified by $arg$. Returns the +option flag register after modification. Use $arg = \rm0$ for reading +the current flags. +\item[CDROM_CLEAR_OPTIONS] Clear options specified by $arg$. Returns + the option flag register after modification. +\item[CDROM_SELECT_SPEED] Select head-rate speed of disc specified as + by $arg$ in units of standard cdrom speed (176\,kB/sec raw data or + 150\,kB/sec file system data). The value 0 means `auto-select', \ie, + play audio discs at real time and data discs at maximum speed. The value + $arg$ is checked against the maximum head rate of the drive found in the + $cdrom_dops$. +\item[CDROM_SELECT_DISC] Select disc numbered $arg$ from a juke-box. + First disc is numbered 0. The number $arg$ is checked against the + maximum number of discs in the juke-box found in the $cdrom_dops$. +\item[CDROM_MEDIA_CHANGED] Returns 1 if a disc has been changed since + the last call. Note that calls to $cdrom_media_changed$ by the VFS + are treated by an independent queue, so both mechanisms will detect + a media change once. For juke-boxes, an extra argument $arg$ + specifies the slot for which the information is given. The special + value $CDSL_CURRENT$ requests that information about the currently + selected slot be returned. +\item[CDROM_DRIVE_STATUS] Returns the status of the drive by a call to + $drive_status()$. Return values are defined in section~\ref{drive + status}. Note that this call doesn't return information on the + current playing activity of the drive; this can be polled through an + $ioctl$ call to $CDROMSUBCHNL$. For juke-boxes, an extra argument + $arg$ specifies the slot for which (possibly limited) information is + given. The special value $CDSL_CURRENT$ requests that information + about the currently selected slot be returned. +\item[CDROM_DISC_STATUS] Returns the type of the disc currently in the + drive. It should be viewed as a complement to $CDROM_DRIVE_STATUS$. + This $ioctl$ can provide \emph {some} information about the current + disc that is inserted in the drive. This functionality used to be + implemented in the low level drivers, but is now carried out + entirely in \UCD. + + The history of development of the CD's use as a carrier medium for + various digital information has lead to many different disc types. + This $ioctl$ is useful only in the case that CDs have \emph {only + one} type of data on them. While this is often the case, it is + also very common for CDs to have some tracks with data, and some + tracks with audio. Because this is an existing interface, rather + than fixing this interface by changing the assumptions it was made + under, thereby breaking all user applications that use this + function, the \UCD\ implements this $ioctl$ as follows: If the CD in + question has audio tracks on it, and it has absolutely no CD-I, XA, + or data tracks on it, it will be reported as $CDS_AUDIO$. If it has + both audio and data tracks, it will return $CDS_MIXED$. If there + are no audio tracks on the disc, and if the CD in question has any + CD-I tracks on it, it will be reported as $CDS_XA_2_2$. Failing + that, if the CD in question has any XA tracks on it, it will be + reported as $CDS_XA_2_1$. Finally, if the CD in question has any + data tracks on it, it will be reported as a data CD ($CDS_DATA_1$). + + This $ioctl$ can return: + $$ + \halign{$#$\ \hfil&$/*$ \rm# $*/$\hfil\cr + CDS_NO_INFO& no information available\cr + CDS_NO_DISC& no disc is inserted, or tray is opened\cr + CDS_AUDIO& Audio disc (2352 audio bytes/frame)\cr + CDS_DATA_1& data disc, mode 1 (2048 user bytes/frame)\cr + CDS_XA_2_1& mixed data (XA), mode 2, form 1 (2048 user bytes)\cr + CDS_XA_2_2& mixed data (XA), mode 2, form 1 (2324 user bytes)\cr + CDS_MIXED& mixed audio/data disc\cr + } + $$ + For some information concerning frame layout of the various disc + types, see a recent version of \cdromh. + +\item[CDROM_CHANGER_NSLOTS] Returns the number of slots in a + juke-box. +\item[CDROMRESET] Reset the drive. +\item[CDROM_GET_CAPABILITY] Returns the $capability$ flags for the + drive. Refer to section \ref{capability} for more information on + these flags. +\item[CDROM_LOCKDOOR] Locks the door of the drive. $arg == \rm0$ + unlocks the door, any other value locks it. +\item[CDROM_DEBUG] Turns on debugging info. Only root is allowed + to do this. Same semantics as CDROM_LOCKDOOR. +\end{description} + +\subsubsection{Device dependent $ioctl$s} + +Finally, all other $ioctl$s are passed to the function $dev_ioctl()$, +if implemented. No memory allocation or verification is carried out. + +\newsection{How to update your driver} + +\begin{enumerate} +\item Make a backup of your current driver. +\item Get hold of the files \cdromc\ and \cdromh, they should be in + the directory tree that came with this documentation. +\item Make sure you include \cdromh. +\item Change the 3rd argument of $register_blkdev$ from +$\&<your-drive>_fops$ to $\&cdrom_fops$. +\item Just after that line, add the following to register with the \UCD: + $$register_cdrom(\&<your-drive>_info);$$ + Similarly, add a call to $unregister_cdrom()$ at the appropriate place. +\item Copy an example of the device-operations $struct$ to your + source, \eg, from {\tt {cm206.c}} $cm206_dops$, and change all + entries to names corresponding to your driver, or names you just + happen to like. If your driver doesn't support a certain function, + make the entry $NULL$. At the entry $capability$ you should list all + capabilities your driver currently supports. If your driver + has a capability that is not listed, please send me a message. +\item Copy the $cdrom_device_info$ declaration from the same example + driver, and modify the entries according to your needs. If your + driver dynamically determines the capabilities of the hardware, this + structure should also be declared dynamically. +\item Implement all functions in your $<device>_dops$ structure, + according to prototypes listed in \cdromh, and specifications given + in section~\ref{cdrom.c}. Most likely you have already implemented + the code in a large part, and you will almost certainly need to adapt the + prototype and return values. +\item Rename your $<device>_ioctl()$ function to $audio_ioctl$ and + change the prototype a little. Remove entries listed in the first + part in section~\ref{cdrom-ioctl}, if your code was OK, these are + just calls to the routines you adapted in the previous step. +\item You may remove all remaining memory checking code in the + $audio_ioctl()$ function that deals with audio commands (these are + listed in the second part of section~\ref{cdrom-ioctl}). There is no + need for memory allocation either, so most $case$s in the $switch$ + statement look similar to: + $$ + case\ CDROMREADTOCENTRY\colon get_toc_entry\bigl((struct\ + cdrom_tocentry *{})\ arg\bigr); + $$ +\item All remaining $ioctl$ cases must be moved to a separate + function, $<device>_ioctl$, the device-dependent $ioctl$s. Note that + memory checking and allocation must be kept in this code! +\item Change the prototypes of $<device>_open()$ and + $<device>_release()$, and remove any strategic code (\ie, tray + movement, door locking, etc.). +\item Try to recompile the drivers. We advise you to use modules, both + for {\tt {cdrom.o}} and your driver, as debugging is much easier this + way. +\end{enumerate} + +\newsection{Thanks} + +Thanks to all the people involved. First, Erik Andersen, who has +taken over the torch in maintaining \cdromc\ and integrating much +\cdrom-related code in the 2.1-kernel.

They are not software compatible. + +Setting Up the Hardware +----------------------- + +The CDU31A driver is unable to safely tell if an interface card is +present that it can use because the interface card does not announce +its presence in any way besides placing 4 I/O locations in memory. It +used to just probe memory and attempt commands, but Linus wisely asked +me to remove that because it could really screw up other hardware in +the system. + +Because of this, you must tell the kernel where the drive interface +is, what interrupts are used, and possibly if you are on a PAS-16 +soundcard. + +If you have the Sony CDU31A/CDU33A drive interface card, the following +diagram will help you set it up. If you have another card, you are on +your own. You need to make sure that the I/O address and interrupt is +not used by another card in the system. You will need to know the I/O +address and interrupt you have set. Note that use of interrupts is +highly recommended, if possible, it really cuts down on CPU used. +Unfortunately, most soundcards do not support interrupts for their +CDROM interfaces.

For instance, to configure a drive at address 320 on interrupt 5, +use the following: + + cdu31a=0x320,5 + +I use the following boot line: + + cdu31a=0x1f88,0,PAS + +because I have a PAS-16 which does not support interrupt for the +CDU31A interface. + +Adding this as an append line at the beginning of the /etc/lilo.conf +file will set it for lilo configurations.

Introduction +--------------- + +The ide-cd driver should work with all ATAPI ver 1.2 to ATAPI 2.6 compliant +CDROM drives which attach to an IDE interface. Note that some CDROM vendors +(including Mitsumi, Sony, Creative, Aztech, and Goldstar) have made +both ATAPI-compliant drives and drives which use a proprietary +interface.

In addition, there is at least one drive +(CyCDROM CR520ie) which attaches to the IDE port but is not ATAPI; +this driver will not work with drives like that either (but see the +aztcd driver). + +This driver provides the following features: + + - Reading from data tracks, and mounting ISO 9660 filesystems. + + - Playing audio tracks. Most of the CDROM player programs floating + around should work; I usually use Workman. + + - Multisession support. + + - On drives which support it, reading digital audio data directly + from audio tracks. The program cdda2wav can be used for this. + Note, however, that only some drives actually support this. + + - There is now support for CDROM changers which comply with the + ATAPI 2.6 draft standard (such as the NEC CDR-251). This additional + functionality includes a function call to query which slot is the + currently selected slot, a function call to query which slots contain + CDs, etc. A sample program which demonstrates this functionality is + appended to the end of this file. The Sanyo 3-disc changer + (which does not conform to the standard) is also now supported. + Please note the driver refers to the first CD as slot # 0. + + +2. Installation +--------------- + +0.

When configuring the kernel, in the section + entitled "Floppy, IDE, and other block devices", say either `Y' + (which will compile the support directly into the kernel) or `M' + (to compile support as a module which can be loaded and unloaded) + to the options: + + Enhanced IDE/MFM/RLL disk/cdrom/tape/floppy support + Include IDE/ATAPI CDROM support + + and `no' to + + Use old disk-only driver on primary interface + + Depending on what type of IDE interface you have, you may need to + specify additional configuration options. See + Documentation/ide.txt. + +2. You should also ensure that the iso9660 filesystem is either + compiled into the kernel or available as a loadable module. You + can see if a filesystem is known to the kernel by catting + /proc/filesystems. + +3. The CDROM drive should be connected to the host on an IDE + interface. Each interface on a system is defined by an I/O port + address and an IRQ number, the standard assignments being + 0x1f0 and 14 for the primary interface and 0x170 and 15 for the + secondary interface. Each interface can control up to two devices, + where each device can be a hard drive, a CDROM drive, a floppy drive, + or a tape drive. The two devices on an interface are called `master' + and `slave'; this is usually selectable via a jumper on the drive. + + Linux names these devices as follows. The master and slave devices + on the primary IDE interface are called `hda' and `hdb', + respectively. The drives on the secondary interface are called + `hdc' and `hdd'. (Interfaces at other locations get other letters + in the third position; see Documentation/ide.txt.) + + If you want your CDROM drive to be found automatically by the + driver, you should make sure your IDE interface uses either the + primary or secondary addresses mentioned above. In addition, if + the CDROM drive is the only device on the IDE interface, it should + be jumpered as `master'. (If for some reason you cannot configure + your system in this manner, you can probably still use the driver. + You may have to pass extra configuration information to the kernel + when you boot, however. See Documentation/ide.txt for more + information.) + +4. Boot the system. If the drive is recognized, you should see a + message which looks like + + hdb: NEC CD-ROM DRIVE:260, ATAPI CDROM drive + + If you do not see this, see section 5 below. + +5. You may want to create a symbolic link /dev/cdrom pointing to the + actual device. You can do this with the command + + ln -s /dev/hdX /dev/cdrom + + where X should be replaced by the letter indicating where your + drive is installed. + +6. You should be able to see any error messages from the driver with + the `dmesg' command. + + +3. Basic usage +-------------- + +An ISO 9660 CDROM can be mounted by putting the disc in the drive and +typing (as root) + + mount -t iso9660 /dev/cdrom /mnt/cdrom + +where it is assumed that /dev/cdrom is a link pointing to the actual +device (as described in step 5 of the last section) and /mnt/cdrom is +an empty directory. You should now be able to see the contents of the +CDROM under the /mnt/cdrom directory. If you want to eject the CDROM, +you must first dismount it with a command like + + umount /mnt/cdrom + +Note that audio CDs cannot be mounted. + +Some distributions set up /etc/fstab to always try to mount a CDROM +filesystem on bootup. It is not required to mount the CDROM in this +manner, though, and it may be a nuisance if you change CDROMs often. +You should feel free to remove the cdrom line from /etc/fstab and +mount CDROMs manually if that suits you better. + +Multisession and photocd discs should work with no special handling. +The hpcdtoppm package (ftp.gwdg.de:/pub/linux/hpcdtoppm/) may be +useful for reading photocds. + +To play an audio CD, you should first unmount and remove any data +CDROM. Any of the CDROM player programs should then work (workman, +workbone, cdplayer, etc.). Lacking anything else, you could use the +cdtester program in Documentation/cdrom/sbpcd. + +On a few drives, you can read digital audio directly using a program +such as cdda2wav. The only types of drive which I've heard support +this are Sony and Toshiba drives. You will get errors if you try to +use this function on a drive which does not support it. + +For supported changers, you can use the `cdchange' program (appended to +the end of this file) to switch between changer slots. Note that the +drive should be unmounted before attempting this. The program takes +two arguments: the CDROM device, and the slot number to which you wish +to change. If the slot number is -1, the drive is unloaded. + + +4. Compilation options +---------------------- + +There are a few additional options which can be set when compiling the +driver. Most people should not need to mess with any of these; they +are listed here simply for completeness. A compilation option can be +enabled by adding a line of the form `#define <option> 1' to the top +of ide-cd.c. All these options are disabled by default. + +VERBOSE_IDE_CD_ERRORS + If this is set, ATAPI error codes will be translated into textual + descriptions. In addition, a dump is made of the command which + provoked the error. This is off by default to save the memory used + by the (somewhat long) table of error descriptions. + +STANDARD_ATAPI + If this is set, the code needed to deal with certain drives which do + not properly implement the ATAPI spec will be disabled. If you know + your drive implements ATAPI properly, you can turn this on to get a + slightly smaller kernel. + +NO_DOOR_LOCKING + If this is set, the driver will never attempt to lock the door of + the drive. + +CDROM_NBLOCKS_BUFFER + This sets the size of the buffer to be used for a CDROMREADAUDIO + ioctl. The default is 8. + +TEST + This currently enables an additional ioctl which enables a user-mode + program to execute an arbitrary packet command. See the source for + details. This should be left off unless you know what you're doing. + + +5. Common problems +------------------ + +This section discusses some common problems encountered when trying to +use the driver, and some possible solutions. Note that if you are +experiencing problems, you should probably also review +Documentation/ide.txt for current information about the underlying +IDE support code. Some of these items apply only to earlier versions +of the driver, but are mentioned here for completeness. + +In most cases, you should probably check with `dmesg' for any errors +from the driver. + +a. Drive is not detected during booting. + + - Review the configuration instructions above and in + Documentation/ide.txt, and check how your hardware is + configured. + + - If your drive is the only device on an IDE interface, it should + be jumpered as master, if at all possible. + + - If your IDE interface is not at the standard addresses of 0x170 + or 0x1f0, you'll need to explicitly inform the driver using a + lilo option. See Documentation/ide.txt. (This feature was + added around kernel version 1.3.30.) + + - If the autoprobing is not finding your drive, you can tell the + driver to assume that one exists by using a lilo option of the + form `hdX=cdrom', where X is the drive letter corresponding to + where your drive is installed. Note that if you do this and you + see a boot message like + + hdX: ATAPI cdrom (?) + + this does _not_ mean that the driver has successfully detected + the drive; rather, it means that the driver has not detected a + drive, but is assuming there's one there anyway because you told + it so. If you actually try to do I/O to a drive defined at a + nonexistent or nonresponding I/O address, you'll probably get + errors with a status value of 0xff. + + - Some IDE adapters require a nonstandard initialization sequence + before they'll function properly. (If this is the case, there + will often be a separate MS-DOS driver just for the controller.) + IDE interfaces on sound cards often fall into this category. + + Support for some interfaces needing extra initialization is + provided in later 1.3.x kernels. You may need to turn on + additional kernel configuration options to get them to work; + see Documentation/ide.txt. + + Even if support is not available for your interface, you may be + able to get it to work with the following procedure. First boot + MS-DOS and load the appropriate drivers. Then warm-boot linux + (i.e., without powering off). If this works, it can be automated + by running loadlin from the MS-DOS autoexec. + + +b. Timeout/IRQ errors. + + - If you always get timeout errors, interrupts from the drive are + probably not making it to the host. + + - IRQ problems may also be indicated by the message + `IRQ probe failed (<n>)' while booting. If <n> is zero, that + means that the system did not see an interrupt from the drive when + it was expecting one (on any feasible IRQ). If <n> is negative, + that means the system saw interrupts on multiple IRQ lines, when + it was expecting to receive just one from the CDROM drive. + + - Double-check your hardware configuration to make sure that the IRQ + number of your IDE interface matches what the driver expects. + (The usual assignments are 14 for the primary (0x1f0) interface + and 15 for the secondary (0x170) interface.) Also be sure that + you don't have some other hardware which might be conflicting with + the IRQ you're using. Also check the BIOS setup for your system; + some have the ability to disable individual IRQ levels, and I've + had one report of a system which was shipped with IRQ 15 disabled + by default. + + - Note that many MS-DOS CDROM drivers will still function even if + there are hardware problems with the interrupt setup; they + apparently don't use interrupts. + + - If you own a Pioneer DR-A24X, you _will_ get nasty error messages + on boot such as "irq timeout: status=0x50 { DriveReady SeekComplete }" + The Pioneer DR-A24X CDROM drives are fairly popular these days. + Unfortunately, these drives seem to become very confused when we perform + the standard Linux ATA disk drive probe. If you own one of these drives, + you can bypass the ATA probing which confuses these CDROM drives, by + adding `append="hdX=noprobe hdX=cdrom"' to your lilo.conf file and running + lilo (again where X is the drive letter corresponding to where your drive + is installed.) + +c. System hangups. + + - If the system locks up when you try to access the CDROM, the most + likely cause is that you have a buggy IDE adapter which doesn't + properly handle simultaneous transactions on multiple interfaces. + The most notorious of these is the CMD640B chip. This problem can + be worked around by specifying the `serialize' option when + booting. Recent kernels should be able to detect the need for + this automatically in most cases, but the detection is not + foolproof. See Documentation/ide.txt for more information + about the `serialize' option and the CMD640B. + + - Note that many MS-DOS CDROM drivers will work with such buggy + hardware, apparently because they never attempt to overlap CDROM + operations with other disk activity. + + +d. Can't mount a CDROM. + + - If you get errors from mount, it may help to check `dmesg' to see + if there are any more specific errors from the driver or from the + filesystem. + + - Make sure there's a CDROM loaded in the drive, and that's it's an + ISO 9660 disc. You can't mount an audio CD. + + - With the CDROM in the drive and unmounted, try something like + + cat /dev/cdrom | od | more + + If you see a dump, then the drive and driver are probably working + OK, and the problem is at the filesystem level (i.e., the CDROM is + not ISO 9660 or has errors in the filesystem structure). + + - If you see `not a block device' errors, check that the definitions + of the device special files are correct. They should be as + follows: + + brw-rw---- 1 root disk 3, 0 Nov 11 18:48 /dev/hda + brw-rw---- 1 root disk 3, 64 Nov 11 18:48 /dev/hdb + brw-rw---- 1 root disk 22, 0 Nov 11 18:48 /dev/hdc + brw-rw---- 1 root disk 22, 64 Nov 11 18:48 /dev/hdd + + Some early Slackware releases had these defined incorrectly. If + these are wrong, you can remake them by running the script + scripts/MAKEDEV.ide. (You may have to make it executable + with chmod first.) + + If you have a /dev/cdrom symbolic link, check that it is pointing + to the correct device file. + + If you hear people talking of the devices `hd1a' and `hd1b', these + were old names for what are now called hdc and hdd. Those names + should be considered obsolete. + + - If mount is complaining that the iso9660 filesystem is not + available, but you know it is (check /proc/filesystems), you + probably need a newer version of mount. Early versions would not + always give meaningful error messages. + + +e. Directory listings are unpredictably truncated, and `dmesg' shows + `buffer botch' error messages from the driver. + + - There was a bug in the version of the driver in 1.2.x kernels + which could cause this. It was fixed in 1.3.0. If you can't + upgrade, you can probably work around the problem by specifying a + blocksize of 2048 when mounting. (Note that you won't be able to + directly execute binaries off the CDROM in that case.) + + If you see this in kernels later than 1.3.0, please report it as a + bug. + + +f. Data corruption. + + - Random data corruption was occasionally observed with the Hitachi + CDR-7730 CDROM. If you experience data corruption, using "hdx=slow" + as a command line parameter may work around the problem, at the + expense of low system performance. + + +6. cdchange.c +------------- + +/* + * cdchange.c [-v] <device> [<slot>] + * + * This loads a CDROM from a specified slot in a changer, and displays + * information about the changer status.

Drives supported by these +drivers came packed with Media Magic's multi media kit, which also +included the ISP16 card. The idea (thanks Leo Spiekman) +to move it from these drivers into a separate module and moreover, not to +rely on the MAD16 sound driver, are as follows: +-duplication of code in the kernel is a waste of resources and should + be avoided; +-however, kernels and notably those included with Linux distributions + (cf Slackware 3.0 included version 0.5 of the isp16 configuration + code included in the drivers) don't always come with sound support + included. Especially when they already include a bunch of cdrom drivers. + Hence, the cdrom interface should be configurable _independently_ of + sound support. + +The ISP16, MAD16 and Mozart sound cards have an OPTi 82C928 or an +OPTi 82C929 chip. The interface on these cards should work with +any cdrom attached to the card, which is 'electrically' compatible +with Sanyo/Panasonic, Sony or Mitsumi non-ide drives. However, the +command sets for any proprietary drives may differ +(and hence may not be supported in the kernel) from these four types. +For a fact I know the interface works and the way of configuration +as described in this documentation works in combination with the +sjcd (in Sanyo/Panasonic compatibility mode) cdrom drivers +(probably with the optcd (in Sony compatibility mode) as well). +If you have such an OPTi based sound card and you want to use the +cdrom interface with a cdrom drive supported by any of the other cdrom +drivers, it will probably work. Please let me know any experience you +might have). +I understand that cards based on the OPTi 82C929 chips may be configured +(hardware jumpers that is) as an IDE interface. Initialisation of such a +card in this mode is not supported (yet?). + +The suggestion to configure the ISP16 etc. sound card by booting DOS and +do a warm reboot to boot Linux somehow doesn't work, at least not +on my machine (IPC P90), with the OPTi 82C928 based card. + +Booting the kernel through the boot manager LILO allows the use +of some command line options on the 'LILO boot:' prompt. At boot time +press Alt or Shift while the LILO prompt is written on the screen and enter +any kernel options. Alternatively these options may be used in +the appropriate section in /etc/lilo.conf.

The values 5 and 7 for irq +should be avoided in order to avoid any conflicts with optional +sound card configuration. +The syntax of the command line does not allow the specification of +irq when there's nothing specified for the base address and no +specification of dma when there is no specification of irq. +The value 'noisp16' for drive_type, which may be used as the first +non-integer option value (e.g. 'isp16=noisp16'), makes sure that probing +for and subsequent configuration of an ISP16-compatible card is skipped +all together. This can be useful to overcome possible conflicts which +may arise while the kernel is probing your hardware. +The default values are + port=0x340 + irq=0 + dma=0 + drive_type=Sanyo +reflecting my own configuration.

Other drives do +follow the specification, but suffer bad performance problems if the +writes are not 32KB aligned. + +Both problems can be solved by using the pktcdvd driver, which always +generates aligned writes. + + # dvd+rw-format /dev/hdc + # pktsetup dev_name /dev/hdc + # mkudffs /dev/pktcdvd/dev_name + # mount /dev/pktcdvd/dev_name /cdrom -t udf -o rw,noatime + + +Packet writing for DVD-RAM media +-------------------------------- + +DVD-RAM discs are random writable, so using the pktcdvd driver is not +necessary. However, using the pktcdvd driver can improve performance +in the same way it does for DVD+RW media. + + +Notes +----- + +- CD-RW media can usually not be overwritten more than about 1000 + times, so to avoid unnecessary wear on the media, you should always + use the noatime mount option. + +- Defect management (ie automatic remapping of bad sectors) has not + been implemented yet, so you are likely to get at least some + filesystem corruption if the disc wears out. + +- Since the pktcdvd driver makes the disc appear as a regular block + device with a 2KB block size, you can put any filesystem you like on + the disc. For example, run: + + # /sbin/mke2fs /dev/pktcdvd/dev_name + + to create an ext2 filesystem on the disc. + + +Links +----- + +See http://fy.chalmers.se/~appro/linux/DVD+RW/ for more information +about DVD writing. diff --git a/Documentation/cdrom/sbpcd b/Documentation/cdrom/sbpcd new file mode 100644 index 000000000000..d1825dffca34 --- /dev/null +++ b/Documentation/cdrom/sbpcd @@ -0,0 +1,1057 @@ +This README belongs to release 4.2 or newer of the SoundBlaster Pro +(Matsushita, Kotobuki, Panasonic, CreativeLabs, Longshine and Teac) +CD-ROM driver for Linux. + +sbpcd really, really is NOT for ANY IDE/ATAPI drive! +Not even if you have an "original" SoundBlaster card with an IDE interface! +So, you'd better have a look into README.ide if your port address is 0x1F0, +0x170, 0x1E8, 0x168 or similar. +I get tons of mails from IDE/ATAPI drive users - I really can't continue +any more to answer them all. So, if your drive/interface information sheets +mention "IDE" (primary, secondary, tertiary, quaternary) and the DOS driver +invoking line within your CONFIG.SYS is using an address below 0x230: +DON'T ROB MY LAST NERVE - jumper your interface to address 0x170 and IRQ 15 +(that is the "secondary IDE" configuration), set your drive to "master" and +use ide-cd as your driver. If you do not have a second IDE hard disk, use the +LILO commands + hdb=noprobe hdc=cdrom +and get lucky. +To make it fully clear to you: if you mail me about IDE/ATAPI drive problems, +my answer is above, and I simply will discard your mail, hoping to stop the +flood and to find time to lead my 12-year old son towards happy computing. + +The driver is able to drive the whole family of "traditional" AT-style (that +is NOT the new "Enhanced IDE" or "ATAPI" drive standard) Matsushita, +Kotobuki, Panasonic drives, sometimes labelled as "CreativeLabs". The +well-known drives are CR-521, CR-522, CR-523, CR-562, CR-563. +CR-574 is an IDE/ATAPI drive. + +The Longshine LCS-7260 is a double-speed drive which uses the "old" +Matsushita command set. It is supported - with help by Serge Robyns. +Vertos ("Elitegroup Computer Systems", ECS) has a similar drive - support +has started; get in contact if you have such a "Vertos 100" or "ECS-AT" +drive. + +There exists an "IBM External ISA CD-ROM Drive" which in fact is a CR-563 +with a special controller board. This drive is supported (the interface is +of the "LaserMate" type), and it is possibly the best buy today (cheaper than +an internal drive, and you can use it as an internal, too - e.g. plug it into +a soundcard). + +CreativeLabs has a new drive "CD200" and a similar drive "CD200F". The latter +is made by Funai and sometimes named "E2550UA", newer models may be named +"MK4015". The CD200F drives should fully work. +CD200 drives without "F" are still giving problems: drive detection and +playing audio should work, data access will result in errors. I need qualified +feedback about the bugs within the data functions or a drive (I never saw a +CD200). + +The quad-speed Teac CD-55A drive is supported, but still does not reach "full +speed". The data rate already reaches 500 kB/sec if you set SBP_BUFFER_FRAMES +to 64 (it is not recommended to do that for normal "file access" usage, but it +can speed up things a lot if you use something like "dd" to read from the +drive; I use it for verifying self-written CDs this way). +The drive itself is able to deliver 600 kB/sec, so this needs +work; with the normal setup, the performance currently is not even as good as +double-speed. + +This driver is NOT for Mitsumi or Sony or Aztech or Philips or XXX drives, +and again: this driver is in no way usable for any IDE/ATAPI drive. If you +think your drive should work and it doesn't: send me the DOS driver for your +beast (gzipped + uuencoded) and your CONFIG.SYS if you want to ask me for help, +and include an original log message excerpt, and try to give all information +a complete idiot needs to understand your hassle already with your first +mail. And if you want to say "as I have mailed you before", be sure that I +don't remember your "case" by such remarks; at the moment, I have some +hundreds of open correspondences about Linux CDROM questions (hope to reduce if +the IDE/ATAPI user questions disappear). + + +This driver will work with the soundcard interfaces (SB Pro, SB 16, Galaxy, +SoundFX, Mozart, MAD16 ...) and with the "no-sound" cards (Panasonic CI-101P, +LaserMate, WDH-7001C, Longshine LCS-6853, Teac ...). + +It works with the "configurable" interface "Sequoia S-1000", too, which is +used on the Spea Media FX and Ensonic Soundscape sound cards. You have to +specify the type "SBPRO 2" and the true CDROM port address with it, not the +"configuration port" address. + +If you have a sound card which needs a "configuration driver" instead of +jumpers for interface types and addresses (like Mozart cards) - those +drivers get invoked before the DOS CDROM driver in your CONFIG.SYS, typical +names are "cdsetup.sys" and "mztinit.sys" - let the sound driver do the +CDROM port configuration (the leading comments in linux/drivers/sound/mad16.c +are just for you!). Hannu Savolainen's mad16.c code is able to set up my +Mozart card - I simply had to add + #define MAD16_CONF 0x06 + #define MAD16_CDSEL 0x03 +to configure the CDROM interface for type "Panasonic" (LaserMate) and address +0x340. + +The interface type has to get configured in linux/drivers/cdrom/sbpcd.h, +because the register layout is different between the "SoundBlaster" and the +"LaserMate" type. + +I got a report that the Teac interface card "I/F E117098" is of type +"SoundBlaster" (i.e. you have to set SBPRO to 1) even with the addresses +0x300 and above. This is unusual, and it can't get covered by the auto +probing scheme. +The Teac 16-bit interface cards (like P/N E950228-00A, default address 0x2C0) +need the SBPRO 3 setup. + +If auto-probing found the drive, the address is correct. The reported type +may be wrong. A "mount" will give success only if the interface type is set +right. Playing audio should work with a wrong set interface type, too. + +With some Teac and some CD200 drives I have seen interface cards which seem +to lack the "drive select" lines; always drive 0 gets addressed. To avoid +"mirror drives" (four drives detected where you only have one) with such +interface cards, set MAX_DRIVES to 1 and jumper your drive to ID 0 (if +possible). + + +Up to 4 drives per interface card, and up to 4 interface cards are supported. +All supported drive families can be mixed, but the CR-521 drives are +hard-wired to drive ID 0. The drives have to use different drive IDs, and each +drive has to get a unique minor number (0...3), corresponding indirectly to +its drive ID. +The drive IDs may be selected freely from 0 to 3 - they do not have to be in +consecutive order. + +As Don Carroll, don@ds9.us.dell.com or FIDO 1:382/14, told me, it is possible +to change old drives to any ID, too. He writes in this sense: + "In order to be able to use more than one single speed drive + (they do not have the ID jumpers) you must add a DIP switch + and two resistors. The pads are already on the board next to + the power connector. You will see the silkscreen for the + switch if you remove the top cover. + 1 2 3 4 + ID 0 = x F F x O = "on" + ID 1 = x O F x F = "off" + ID 2 = x F O x x = "don't care" + ID 3 = x O O x + Next to the switch are the positions for R76 (7k) and R78 + (12k). I had to play around with the resistor values - ID 3 + did not work with other values. If the values are not good, + ID 3 behaves like ID 0." + +To use more than 4 drives, you simply need a second controller card at a +different address and a second cable. + +The driver supports reading of data from the CD and playing of audio tracks. +The audio part should run with WorkMan, xcdplayer, with the "non-X11" products +CDplayer and WorkBone - tell me if it is not compatible with other software. +The only accepted measure for correctness with the audio functions is the +"cdtester" utility (appended) - most audio player programmers seem to be +better musicians than programmers. ;-) + +With the CR-56x and the CD200 drives, the reading of audio frames is possible. +This is implemented by an IOCTL function which reads READ_AUDIO frames of +2352 bytes at once (configurable with the "READ_AUDIO" define, default is 0). +Reading the same frame a second time gives different data; the frame data +start at a different position, but all read bytes are valid, and we always +read 98 consecutive chunks (of 24 Bytes) as a frame. Reading more than 1 frame +at once possibly misses some chunks at each frame boundary. This lack has to +get corrected by external, "higher level" software which reads the same frame +again and tries to find and eliminate overlapping chunks (24-byte-pieces). + +The transfer rate with reading audio (1-frame-pieces) currently is very slow. +This can be better reading bigger chunks, but the "missing" chunks possibly +occur at the beginning of each single frame. +The software interface possibly may change a bit the day the SCSI driver +supports it too. + +With all but the CR-52x drives, MultiSession is supported. +Photo CDs work (the "old" drives like CR-521 can access only the first +session of a photoCD). +At ftp.gwdg.de:/pub/linux/hpcdtoppm/ you will find Hadmut Danisch's package to +convert photo CD image files and Gerd Knorr's viewing utility. + +The transfer rate will reach 150 kB/sec with CR-52x drives, 300 kB/sec with +CR-56x drives, and currently not more than 500 kB/sec (usually less than +250 kB/sec) with the Teac quad speed drives. +XA (PhotoCD) disks with "old" drives give only 50 kB/sec. + +This release consists of +- this README file +- the driver file linux/drivers/cdrom/sbpcd.c +- the stub files linux/drivers/cdrom/sbpcd[234].c +- the header file linux/drivers/cdrom/sbpcd.h. + + +To install: +----------- + +1. Setup your hardware parameters. Though the driver does "auto-probing" at a + lot of (not all possible!) addresses, this step is recommended for + everyday use. You should let sbpcd auto-probe once and use the reported + address if a drive got found. The reported type may be incorrect; it is + correct if you can mount a data CD. There is no choice for you with the + type; only one is right, the others are deadly wrong. + + a. Go into /usr/src/linux/drivers/cdrom/sbpcd.h and configure it for your + hardware (near the beginning): + a1. Set it up for the appropriate type of interface board. + "Original" CreativeLabs sound cards need "SBPRO 1". + Most "compatible" sound cards (almost all "non-CreativeLabs" cards) + need "SBPRO 0". + The "no-sound" board from OmniCd needs the "SBPRO 1" setup. + The Teac 8-bit "no-sound" boards need the "SBPRO 1" setup. + The Teac 16-bit "no-sound" boards need the "SBPRO 3" setup. + All other "no-sound" boards need the "SBPRO 0" setup. + The Spea Media FX and Ensoniq SoundScape cards need "SBPRO 2". + sbpcd.c holds some examples in its auto-probe list. + If you configure "SBPRO" wrong, the playing of audio CDs will work, + but you will not be able to mount a data CD. + a2. Tell the address of your CDROM_PORT (not of the sound port). + a3. If 4 drives get found, but you have only one, set MAX_DRIVES to 1. + a4. Set DISTRIBUTION to 0. + b. Additionally for 2.a1 and 2.a2, the setup may be done during + boot time (via the "kernel command line" or "LILO option"): + sbpcd=0x320,LaserMate + or + sbpcd=0x230,SoundBlaster + or + sbpcd=0x338,SoundScape + or + sbpcd=0x2C0,Teac16bit + This is especially useful if you install a fresh distribution. + If the second parameter is a number, it gets taken as the type + setting; 0 is "LaserMate", 1 is "SoundBlaster", 2 is "SoundScape", + 3 is "Teac16bit". + So, for example + sbpcd=0x230,1 + is equivalent to + sbpcd=0x230,SoundBlaster + +2. "cd /usr/src/linux" and do a "make config" and select "y" for Matsushita + CD-ROM support and for ISO9660 FileSystem support. If you do not have a + second, third, or fourth controller installed, do not say "y" to the + secondary Matsushita CD-ROM questions. + +3. Then make the kernel image ("make zlilo" or similar). + +4. Make the device file(s). This step usually already has been done by the + MAKEDEV script. + The driver uses MAJOR 25, so, if necessary, do + mknod /dev/sbpcd b 25 0 (if you have only one drive) + and/or + mknod /dev/sbpcd0 b 25 0 + mknod /dev/sbpcd1 b 25 1 + mknod /dev/sbpcd2 b 25 2 + mknod /dev/sbpcd3 b 25 3 + to make the node(s). + + The "first found" drive gets MINOR 0 (regardless of its jumpered ID), the + "next found" (at the same cable) gets MINOR 1, ... + + For a second interface board, you have to make nodes like + mknod /dev/sbpcd4 b 26 0 + mknod /dev/sbpcd5 b 26 1 + and so on. Use the MAJORs 26, 27, 28. + + If you further make a link like + ln -s sbpcd /dev/cdrom + you can use the name /dev/cdrom, too. + +5. Reboot with the new kernel. + +You should now be able to do + mkdir /CD +and + mount -rt iso9660 /dev/sbpcd /CD +or + mount -rt iso9660 -o block=2048 /dev/sbpcd /CD +and see the contents of your CD in the /CD directory. +To use audio CDs, a mounting is not recommended (and it would fail if the +first track is not a data track). + + +Using sbpcd as a "loadable module": +----------------------------------- + +If you do NOT select "Matsushita/Panasonic CDROM driver support" during the +"make config" of your kernel, you can build the "loadable module" sbpcd.o. + +If sbpcd gets used as a module, the support of more than one interface +card (i.e. drives 4...15) is disabled. + +You can specify interface address and type with the "insmod" command like: + # insmod /usr/src/linux/modules/sbpcd.o sbpcd=0x340,0 +or + # insmod /usr/src/linux/modules/sbpcd.o sbpcd=0x230,1 +or + # insmod /usr/src/linux/modules/sbpcd.o sbpcd=0x338,2 +where the last number represents the SBPRO setting (no strings allowed here). + + +Things of interest: +------------------- + +The driver is configured to try the LaserMate type of interface at I/O port +0x0340 first. If this is not appropriate, sbpcd.h should get changed +(you will find the right place - just at the beginning). + +No DMA and no IRQ is used. + +To reduce or increase the amount of kernel messages, edit sbpcd.c and play +with the "DBG_xxx" switches (initialization of the variable "sbpcd_debug"). +Don't forget to reflect on what you do; enabling all DBG_xxx switches at once +may crash your system, and each message line is accompanied by a delay. + +The driver uses the "variable BLOCK_SIZE" feature. To use it, you have to +specify "block=2048" as a mount option. Doing this will disable the direct +execution of a binary from the CD; you have to copy it to a device with the +standard BLOCK_SIZE (1024) first. So, do not use this if your system is +directly "running from the CDROM" (like some of Yggdrasil's installation +variants). There are CDs on the market (like the German "unifix" Linux +distribution) which MUST get handled with a block_size of 1024. Generally, +one can say all the CDs which hold files of the name YMTRANS.TBL are defective; +do not use block=2048 with those. + +Within sbpcd.h, you will find some "#define"s (e.g. EJECT and JUKEBOX). With +these, you can configure the driver for some special things. +You can use the appended program "cdtester" to set the auto-eject feature +during runtime. Jeff Tranter's "eject" utility can do this, too (and more) +for you. + +There is an ioctl CDROMMULTISESSION to obtain with a user program if +the CD is an XA disk and - if it is - where the last session starts. The +"cdtester" program illustrates how to call it. + + +Auto-probing at boot time: +-------------------------- + +The driver does auto-probing at many well-known interface card addresses, +but not all: +Some probings can cause a hang if an NE2000 ethernet card gets touched, because +SBPCD's auto-probing happens before the initialization of the net drivers. +Those "hazardous" addresses are excluded from auto-probing; the "kernel +command line" feature has to be used during installation if you have your +drive at those addresses. The "module" version is allowed to probe at those +addresses, too. + +The auto-probing looks first at the configured address resp. the address +submitted by the kernel command line. With this, it is possible to use this +driver within installation boot floppies, and for any non-standard address, +too. + +Auto-probing will make an assumption about the interface type ("SBPRO" or not), +based upon the address. That assumption may be wrong (initialization will be +o.k., but you will get I/O errors during mount). In that case, use the "kernel +command line" feature and specify address & type at boot time to find out the +right setup. + +For everyday use, address and type should get configured within sbpcd.h. That +will stop the auto-probing due to success with the first try. + +The kernel command "sbpcd=0" suppresses each auto-probing and causes +the driver not to find any drive; it is meant for people who love sbpcd +so much that they do not want to miss it, even if they miss the drives. ;-) + +If you configure "#define CDROM_PORT 0" in sbpcd.h, the auto-probing is +initially disabled and needs an explicit kernel command to get activated. +Once activated, it does not stop before success or end-of-list. This may be +useful within "universal" CDROM installation boot floppies (but using the +loadable module would be better because it allows an "extended" auto-probing +without fearing NE2000 cards). + +To shorten the auto-probing list to a single entry, set DISTRIBUTION 0 within +sbpcd.h. + + +Setting up address and interface type: +-------------------------------------- + +If your I/O port address is not 0x340, you have to look for the #defines near +the beginning of sbpcd.h and configure them: set SBPRO to 0 or 1 or 2, and +change CDROM_PORT to the address of your CDROM I/O port. + +Almost all of the "SoundBlaster compatible" cards behave like the no-sound +interfaces, i.e. need SBPRO 0! + +With "original" SB Pro cards, an initial setting of CD_volume through the +sound card's MIXER register gets done. +If you are using a "compatible" sound card of types "LaserMate" or "SPEA", +you can set SOUND_BASE (in sbpcd.h) to get it done with your card, too... + + +Using audio CDs: +---------------- + +Workman, WorkBone, xcdplayer, cdplayer and the nice little tool "cdplay" (see +README.aztcd from the Aztech driver package) should work. + +The program CDplayer likes to talk to "/dev/mcd" only, xcdplayer wants +"/dev/rsr0", workman loves "/dev/sr0" or "/dev/cdrom" - so, make the +appropriate links to use them without the need to supply parameters. + + +Copying audio tracks: +--------------------- + +The following program will copy track 1 (or a piece of it) from an audio CD +into the file "track01": + +/*=================== begin program ========================================*/ +/* + * read an audio track from a CD + * + * (c) 1994 Eberhard Moenkeberg <emoenke@gwdg.de> + * may be used & enhanced freely + * + * Due to non-existent sync bytes at the beginning of each audio frame (or due + * to a firmware bug within all known drives?), it is currently a kind of + * fortune if two consecutive frames fit together. + * Usually, they overlap, or a little piece is missing.

This is +one of the older Sony drives with its own interface card (Sony bus). +The DOS driver for this drive is named SONY_CDU.SYS - when you boot DOS +your drive should be identified as a SONY CDU-535. The driver works +with a CDU-531 also. One user reported that the driver worked on drives +OEM'ed by Procomm, drive and interface board were labelled Procomm. + +The Linux driver is based on Corey Minyard's sonycd 0.3 driver for +the CDU-31A. Ron Jeppesen just changed the commands that were sent +to the drive to correspond to the CDU-535 commands and registers. +There were enough changes to let bugs creep in but it seems to be stable. +Ron was able to tar an entire CDROM (should read all blocks) and built +ghostview and xfig off Walnut Creek's X11R5/GNU CDROM. xcdplayer and +workman work with the driver. Others have used the driver without +problems except those dealing with wait loops (fixed in third release). +Like Minyard's original driver this one uses a polled interface (this +is also the default setup for the DOS driver). It has not been tried +with interrupts or DMA enabled on the board. + +REQUIREMENTS +============ + + - Sony CDU-535 drive, preferably without interrupts and DMA + enabled on the card. + + - Drive must be set up as unit 1. Only the first unit will be + recognized + + - You must enter your interface address into + /usr/src/linux/drivers/cdrom/sonycd535.h and build the + appropriate kernel or use the "kernel command line" parameter + sonycd535=0x320 + with the correct interface address. + +NOTES: +====== + +1) The drive MUST be turned on when booting or it will not be recognized! + (but see comments on modularized version below) + +2) when the cdrom device is opened the eject button is disabled to keep the + user from ejecting a mounted disk and replacing it with another. + Unfortunately xcdplayer and workman also open the cdrom device so you + have to use the eject button in the software. Keep this in mind if your + cdrom player refuses to give up its disk -- exit workman or xcdplayer, or + umount the drive if it has been mounted. + +THANKS +====== + +Many thanks to Ron Jeppesen (ronj.an@site007.saic.com) for getting +this project off the ground. He wrote the initial release +and the first two patches to this driver (0.1, 0.2, and 0.3). +Thanks also to Eberhard Moenkeberg (emoenke@gwdg.de) for prodding +me to place this code into the mainstream Linux source tree +(as of Linux version 1.1.91), as well as some patches to make +it a better device citizen. Further thanks to Joel Katz +<joelkatz@webchat.org> for his MODULE patches (see details below), +Porfiri Claudio <C.Porfiri@nisms.tei.ericsson.se> for patches +to make the driver work with the older CDU-510/515 series, and +Heiko Eissfeldt <heiko@colossus.escape.de> for pointing out that +the verify_area() checks were ignoring the results of said checks. + +(Acknowledgments from Ron Jeppesen in the 0.3 release:) +Thanks to Corey Minyard who wrote the original CDU-31A driver on which +this driver is based. Thanks to Ken Pizzini and Bob Blair who provided +patches and feedback on the first release of this driver. + +Ken Pizzini +ken@halcyon.com + +------------------------------------------------------------------------------ +(The following is from Joel Katz <joelkatz@webchat.org>.) + + To build a version of sony535.o that can be installed as a module, +use the following command: + +gcc -c -D__KERNEL__ -DMODULE -O2 sonycd535.c -o sonycd535.o + + To install the module, simply type: + +insmod sony535.o + or +insmod sony535.o sonycd535=<address> + + And to remove it: + +rmmod sony535 + + The code checks to see if MODULE is defined and behaves as it used +to if MODULE is not defined. That means your patched file should behave +exactly as it used to if compiled into the kernel. + + I have an external drive, and I usually leave it powered off. I used +to have to reboot if I needed to use the CDROM drive. Now I don't. + + Even if you have an internal drive, why waste the 96K of memory +(unswappable) that the driver uses if you use your CD-ROM drive infrequently? + + This driver will not install (whether compiled in or loaded as a +module) if the CDROM drive is not available during its initialization. This +means that you can have the driver compiled into the kernel and still load +the module later (assuming the driver doesn't install itself during +power-on). This only wastes 12K when you boot with the CDROM drive off. + + This is what I usually do; I leave the driver compiled into the +kernel, but load it as a module if I powered the system up with the drive +off and then later decided to use the CDROM drive. + + Since the driver only uses a single page to point to the chunks, +attempting to set the buffer cache to more than 2 Megabytes would be very +bad; don't do that. |
