has been authorized before and nothing further
needs to be done.
- If the CDID is zero (or the CM doesn't find a
matching CDID in its database), the device is
assumed to be not known. The CM may associate
the host with device by: writing a randomly
generated CDID to wusb_cdid and then a random CK
to wusb_ck (this uploads the new CC to the
device).
CMD may choose to prompt the user before
associating with a new device.
7. Device is unplugged.

Introduction
UWB is a wide-band communication protocol that is to serve also as the
low-level protocol for others (much like TCP sits on IP). Currently
these others are Wireless USB and TCP/IP, but seems Bluetooth and
Firewire/1394 are coming along.
UWB uses a band from roughly 3 to 10 GHz, transmitting at a max of
~-41dB (or 0.074 uW/MHz--geography specific data is still being
negotiated w/ regulators, so watch for changes). That band is divided in
a bunch of ~1.5 GHz wide channels (or band groups) composed of three
subbands/subchannels (528 MHz each). Each channel is independent of each
other, so you could consider them different "busses". Initially this
driver considers them all a single one.
Radio time is divided in 65536 us long /superframes/, each one divided
in 256 256us long /MASs/ (Media Allocation Slots), which are the basic
time/media allocation units for transferring data. At the beginning of
each superframe there is a Beacon Period (BP), where every device
transmit its beacon on a single MAS. The length of the BP depends on how
many devices are present and the length of their beacons.
Devices have a MAC (fixed, 48 bit address) and a device (changeable, 16
bit address) and send periodic beacons to advertise themselves and pass
info on what they are and do. They advertise their capabilities and a
bunch of other stuff.
The different logical parts of this driver are:
*
*UWB*: the Ultra-Wide-Band stack -- manages the radio and
associated spectrum to allow for devices sharing it. Allows to
control bandwidth assingment, beaconing, scanning, etc
*
*WUSB*: the layer that sits on top of UWB to provide Wireless USB.
The Wireless USB spec defines means to control a UWB radio and to
do the actual WUSB.
HWA: Host Wire adapters, your Wireless USB dongle
WUSB also defines a device called a Host Wire Adaptor (HWA), which in
mere terms is a USB dongle that enables your PC to have UWB and Wireless
USB. The Wireless USB Host Controller in a HWA looks to the host like a
[Wireless] USB controller connected via USB (!)
The HWA itself is broken in two or three main interfaces:
*
*RC*: Radio control -- this implements an interface to the
Ultra-Wide-Band radio controller. The driver for this implements a
USB-based UWB Radio Controller to the UWB stack.
*
*HC*: the wireless USB host controller. It looks like a USB host
whose root port is the radio and the WUSB devices connect to it.
To the system it looks like a separate USB host. The driver (will)
implement a USB host controller (similar to UHCI, OHCI or EHCI)
for which the root hub is the radio...To reiterate: it is a USB
controller that is connected via USB instead of PCI.
*
*WINET*: some HW provide a WiNET interface (IP over UWB). This
package provides a driver for it (it looks like a network
interface, winetX). The driver detects when there is a link up for
their type and kick into gear.
DWA: Device Wired Adaptor, a Wireless USB hub for wired devices
These are the complement to HWAs. They are a USB host for connecting
wired devices, but it is connected to your PC connected via Wireless
USB. To the system it looks like yet another USB host. To the untrained
eye, it looks like a hub that connects upstream wirelessly.
We still offer no support for this; however, it should share a lot of
code with the HWA-RC driver; there is a bunch of factorization work that
has been done to support that in upcoming releases.
WHCI: Wireless Host Controller Interface, the PCI WUSB host adapter
This is your usual PCI device that implements WHCI. Similar in concept
to EHCI, it allows your wireless USB devices (including DWAs) to connect
to your host via a PCI interface. As in the case of the HWA, it has a
Radio Control interface and the WUSB Host Controller interface per se.
There is still no driver support for this, but will be in upcoming
releases.
The UWB stack
The main mission of the UWB stack is to keep a tally of which devices
are in radio proximity to allow drivers to connect to them. As well, it
provides an API for controlling the local radio controllers (RCs from
now on), such as to start/stop beaconing, scan, allocate bandwidth, etc.
Devices and hosts: the basic structure
The main building block here is the UWB device (struct uwb_dev). For
each device that pops up in radio presence (ie: the UWB host receives a
beacon from it) you get a struct uwb_dev that will show up in
/sys/class/uwb and in /sys/bus/uwb/devices.
For each RC that is detected, a new struct uwb_rc is created. In turn, a
RC is also a device, so they also show in /sys/class/uwb and
/sys/bus/uwb/devices, but at the same time, only radio controllers show
up in /sys/class/uwb_rc.
*
[*] The reason for RCs being also devices is that not only we can
see them while enumerating the system device tree, but also on the
radio (their beacons and stuff), so the handling has to be
likewise to that of a device.
Each RC driver is implemented by a separate driver that plugs into the
interface that the UWB stack provides through a struct uwb_rc_ops. The
spec creators have been nice enough to make the message format the same
for HWA and WHCI RCs, so the driver is really a very thin transport that
moves the requests from the UWB API to the device [/uwb_rc_ops->cmd()/]
and sends the replies and notifications back to the API
[/uwb_rc_neh_grok()/]. Notifications are handled to the UWB daemon, that
is chartered, among other things, to keep the tab of how the UWB radio
neighborhood looks, creating and destroying devices as they show up or
dissapear.
Command execution is very simple: a command block is sent and a event
block or reply is expected back. For sending/receiving command/events, a
handle called /neh/ (Notification/Event Handle) is opened with
/uwb_rc_neh_open()/.
The HWA-RC (USB dongle) driver (drivers/uwb/hwa-rc.c) does this job for
the USB connected HWA. Eventually, drivers/whci-rc.c will do the same
for the PCI connected WHCI controller.
Host Controller life cycle
So let's say we connect a dongle to the system: it is detected and
firmware uploaded if needed [for Intel's i1480
/drivers/uwb/ptc/usb.c:ptc_usb_probe()/] and then it is reenumerated.
Now we have a real HWA device connected and
/drivers/uwb/hwa-rc.c:hwarc_probe()/ picks it up, that will set up the
Wire-Adaptor environment and then suck it into the UWB stack's vision of
the world [/drivers/uwb/lc-rc.c:uwb_rc_add()/].
*
[*] The stack should put a new RC to scan for devices
[/uwb_rc_scan()/] so it finds what's available around and tries to
connect to them, but this is policy stuff and should be driven
from user space. As of now, the operator is expected to do it
manually; see the release notes for documentation on the procedure.
When a dongle is disconnected, /drivers/uwb/hwa-rc.c:hwarc_disconnect()/
takes time of tearing everything down safely (or not...).
On the air: beacons and enumerating the radio neighborhood
So assuming we have devices and we have agreed for a channel to connect
on (let's say 9), we put the new RC to beacon:
*
$ echo 9 0 > /sys/class/uwb_rc/uwb0/beacon
Now it is visible. If there were other devices in the same radio channel
and beacon group (that's what the zero is for), the dongle's radio
control interface will send beacon notifications on its
notification/event endpoint (NEEP). The beacon notifications are part of
the event stream that is funneled into the API with
/drivers/uwb/neh.c:uwb_rc_neh_grok()/ and delivered to the UWBD, the UWB
daemon through a notification list.
UWBD wakes up and scans the event list; finds a beacon and adds it to
the BEACON CACHE (/uwb_beca/). If he receives a number of beacons from
the same device, he considers it to be 'onair' and creates a new device
[/drivers/uwb/lc-dev.c:uwbd_dev_onair()/]. Similarly, when no beacons
are received in some time, the device is considered gone and wiped out
[uwbd calls periodically /uwb/beacon.c:uwb_beca_purge()/ that will purge
the beacon cache of dead devices].
Device lists
All UWB devices are kept in the list of the struct bus_type uwb_bus.
Bandwidth allocation
The UWB stack maintains a local copy of DRP availability through
processing of incoming *DRP Availability Change* notifications. This
local copy is currently used to present the current bandwidth
availability to the user through the sysfs file
/sys/class/uwb_rc/uwbx/bw_avail. In the future the bandwidth
availability information will be used by the bandwidth reservation
routines.
The bandwidth reservation routines are in progress and are thus not
present in the current release. When completed they will enable a user
to initiate DRP reservation requests through interaction with sysfs. DRP
reservation requests from remote UWB devices will also be handled. The
bandwidth management done by the UWB stack will include callbacks to the
higher layers will enable the higher layers to use the reservations upon
completion. [Note: The bandwidth reservation work is in progress and
subject to change.]
Wireless USB Host Controller drivers
*WARNING* This section needs a lot of work!
As explained above, there are three different types of HCs in the WUSB
world: HWA-HC, DWA-HC and WHCI-HC.
HWA-HC and DWA-HC share that they are Wire-Adapters (USB or WUSB
connected controllers), and their transfer management system is almost
identical. So is their notification delivery system.
HWA-HC and WHCI-HC share that they are both WUSB host controllers, so
they have to deal with WUSB device life cycle and maintenance, wireless
root-hub
HWA exposes a Host Controller interface (HWA-HC 0xe0/02/02). This has
three endpoints (Notifications, Data Transfer In and Data Transfer
Out--known as NEP, DTI and DTO in the code).
We reserve UWB bandwidth for our Wireless USB Cluster, create a Cluster
ID and tell the HC to use all that. Then we start it. This means the HC
starts sending MMCs.
*
The MMCs are blocks of data defined somewhere in the WUSB1.0 spec
that define a stream in the UWB channel time allocated for sending
WUSB IEs (host to device commands/notifications) and Device
Notifications (device initiated to host). Each host defines a
unique Wireless USB cluster through MMCs. Devices can connect to a
single cluster at the time. The IEs are Information Elements, and
among them are the bandwidth allocations that tell each device
when can they transmit or receive.
Now it all depends on external stimuli.
*New device connection*
A new device pops up, it scans the radio looking for MMCs that give out
the existence of Wireless USB channels. Once one (or more) are found,
selects which one to connect to. Sends a /DN_Connect/ (device
notification connect) during the DNTS (Device Notification Time
Slot--announced in the MMCs
HC picks the /DN_Connect/ out (nep module sends to notif.c for delivery
into /devconnect/). This process starts the authentication process for
the device. First we allocate a /fake port/ and assign an
unauthenticated address (128 to 255--what we really do is
0x80 | fake_port_idx). We fiddle with the fake port status and /khubd/
sees a new connection, so he moves on to enable the fake port with a reset.
So now we are in the reset path -- we know we have a non-yet enumerated
device with an unauthorized address; we ask user space to authenticate
(FIXME: not yet done, similar to bluetooth pairing), then we do the key
exchange (FIXME: not yet done) and issue a /set address 0/ to bring the
device to the default state. Device is authenticated.
From here, the USB stack takes control through the usb_hcd ops. khubd
has seen the port status changes, as we have been toggling them. It will
start enumerating and doing transfers through usb_hcd->urb_enqueue() to
read descriptors and move our data.
*Device life cycle and keep alives*
Everytime there is a succesful transfer to/from a device, we update a
per-device activity timestamp. If not, every now and then we check and
if the activity timestamp gets old, we ping the device by sending it a
Keep Alive IE; it responds with a /DN_Alive/ pong during the DNTS (this
arrives to us as a notification through
devconnect.c:wusb_handle_dn_alive(). If a device times out, we
disconnect it from the system (cleaning up internal information and
toggling the bits in the fake hub port, which kicks khubd into removing
the rest of the stuff).
This is done through devconnect:__wusb_check_devs(), which will scan the
device list looking for whom needs refreshing.
If the device wants to disconnect, it will either die (ugly) or send a
/DN_Disconnect/ that will prompt a disconnection from the system.
*Sending and receiving data*
Data is sent and received through /Remote Pipes/ (rpipes). An rpipe is
/aimed/ at an endpoint in a WUSB device. This is the same for HWAs and
DWAs.
Each HC has a number of rpipes and buffers that can be assigned to them;
when doing a data transfer (xfer), first the rpipe has to be aimed and
prepared (buffers assigned), then we can start queueing requests for
data in or out.
Data buffers have to be segmented out before sending--so we send first a
header (segment request) and then if there is any data, a data buffer
immediately after to the DTI interface (yep, even the request). If our
buffer is bigger than the max segment size, then we just do multiple
requests.
[This sucks, because doing USB scatter gatter in Linux is resource
intensive, if any...not that the current approach is not. It just has to
be cleaned up a lot :)].
If reading, we don't send data buffers, just the segment headers saying
we want to read segments.
When the xfer is executed, we receive a notification that says data is
ready in the DTI endpoint (handled through
xfer.c:wa_handle_notif_xfer()). In there we read from the DTI endpoint a
descriptor that gives us the status of the transfer, its identification
(given when we issued it) and the segment number. If it was a data read,
we issue another URB to read into the destination buffer the chunk of
data coming out of the remote endpoint. Done, wait for the next guy. The
callbacks for the URBs issued from here are the ones that will declare
the xfer complete at some point and call it's callback.
Seems simple, but the implementation is not trivial.
*
*WARNING* Old!!
The main xfer descriptor, wa_xfer (equivalent to a URB) contains an
array of segments, tallys on segments and buffers and callback
information. Buried in there is a lot of URBs for executing the segments
and buffer transfers.
For OUT xfers, there is an array of segments, one URB for each, another
one of buffer URB. When submitting, we submit URBs for segment request
1, buffer 1, segment 2, buffer 2...etc. Then we wait on the DTI for xfer
result data; when all the segments are complete, we call the callback to
finalize the transfer.
For IN xfers, we only issue URBs for the segments we want to read and
then wait for the xfer result data.
*URB mapping into xfers*
This is done by hwahc_op_urb_[en|de]queue(). In enqueue() we aim an
rpipe to the endpoint where we have to transmit, create a transfer
context (wa_xfer) and submit it. When the xfer is done, our callback is
called and we assign the status bits and release the xfer resources.
In dequeue() we are basically cancelling/aborting the transfer. We issue
a xfer abort request to the HC, cancell all the URBs we had submitted
and not yet done and when all that is done, the xfer callback will be
called--this will call the URB callback.

Usage: $progname COMMAND DEVICEs [ARGS]
Command for manipulating the pairing/authentication credentials of a
Wireless USB device that supports wired-mode Cable-Based-Association.
Works in conjunction with the wusb-cba.ko driver from http://linuxuwb.org.
DEVICE
sysfs path to the device to authenticate; for example, both this
guys are the same:
/sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1d.7/usb1/1-4/1-4.4/1-4.4:1.1
/sys/bus/usb/drivers/wusb-cbaf/1-4.4:1.1
COMMAND/ARGS are
start
Start a WUSB host controller (by setting up a CHID)
set-chid DEVICE HOST-CHID HOST-BANDGROUP HOST-NAME
Sets host information in the device; after this you can call the
get-cdid to see how does this device report itself to us.
get-cdid DEVICE
Get the device ID associated to the HOST-CHDI we sent with
'set-chid'. We might not know about it.
set-cc DEVICE
If we allow the device to connect, set a random new CDID and CK
(connection key). Device saves them for the next time it wants to
connect wireless. We save them for that next time also so we can
authenticate the device (when we see the CDID he uses to id
itself) and the CK to crypto talk to it.
CHID is always 16 hex bytes in 'XX YY ZZ...' form
BANDGROUP is almost always 0001
Examples:
You can default most arguments to '' to get a sane value:
$ $progname set-chid '' '' '' "My host name"
A full sequence:
$ $progname set-chid '' '' '' "My host name"
$ $progname get-cdid ''
$ $progname set-cc ''
EOF
}
