The driving layer is mainly added with a confirmation mechanism and a buffer management mechanism, so that reliable data transmission is ensured, and the data transmission efficiency of the SPI is comprehensively improved.
A data transmission method and apparatus applied to an electronic device according to embodiments of the present application will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.
Fig. 1 is a flowchart of a data transmission method applied to an electronic device according to an embodiment of the present application, where the method provided by the embodiment of the present application may be executed by any electronic device having computer processing capability, where the electronic device includes a master device and a slave device, the master device is connected to the slave device through an SPI interface, a master DMA controller, a master SPI controller, and a master memory are disposed in the master device, and a slave DMA controller, a slave SPI controller, and a slave memory are disposed in the slave device.
As shown in fig. 1, the method includes steps S210 to S240.
In step S110, when the master transmits data to the slave, the first data to be transmitted is read from the main memory by the master DMA controller and written to the master buffer of the master.
In step S120, the sub data of the master buffer is transmitted to the slave device through the SPI interface by the master SPI controller.
In step S130, the received sub data is written to the slave buffer of the slave device by the slave SPI controller.
In step S140, the sub data of the slave buffer is read from the DMA controller and written to the slave memory.
The method can read the first data to be transmitted from the main memory through the main DMA controller and write the first data to be transmitted into the main buffer area of the main device when the main device transmits the data to the slave device, transmit the sub data of the main buffer area to the slave device through the SPI interface through the main SPI controller, write the received sub data into the slave buffer area of the slave device through the slave SPI controller, read the sub data of the slave buffer area from the DMA controller and write the sub data of the slave buffer area into the slave memory, and the data is transmitted in such a way that the data is not interfered by software, thereby improving the efficiency of the data transmission from the main device to the slave device.
In the related art, SPI communication has two roles of Master and Slave, and Master is responsible for read-write control of communication, and Slave responds according to the chip select signal and the clock signal of Master. The SPI communication system consists of 4 signal lines, CS is a chip selection signal, and when the Master pulls down the CS signal, the SPI controller of the Slave enters a ready state and transmits data when a clock is received. SCLK is a clock signal for outputting a communication clock to Slave. MISO and MOSI are data transfer signals, MISO is used to read data from Slave, and MOSI is used to write data to Slave. SPI communication is a loop communication, and a clock period Master end reads one bit data from the Slave through MISO, and simultaneously writes one bit data into the Slave through MOSI. In general, when the SPI controller configures and completes transmission of one byte or two bytes, an interrupt is generated, and the interrupt handler reads the data received in the buffer and resumes transmission, so that the data transmission in an interrupt manner is frequently interfered by the interrupt handler due to the process of data transmission, thereby reducing the efficiency of data transmission.
Aiming at the problems, in the method provided by the application, a Master DMA controller is deployed in a Master, and a Slave DMA controller is deployed in a Slave. Therefore, when the Master transmits data to the Slave, DMA can be adopted to improve the transmission efficiency. And the DMA transmission is used, software intervention in the data transmission process is eliminated, and the transmission efficiency is improved. In this embodiment, the size of the data frame sent by each SPI may be limited to a fixed value (for example, limited to 2 kbytes, which may be adjusted according to an actual application scenario) by using DMA, when the sending of the 2k data frame is completed, the DMA may trigger an interrupt, and at this time, software reads and processes the SBuffer data, and the data transmission process does not need software intervention.
In some embodiments, before the master device transmits data to the slave device, the method further comprises: the MTI signal is pulled up by the master device, and a first interrupt signal is sent to the slave device; receiving a first interrupt signal by the slave device, associating the storage space allocated by the slave memory to the slave DMA control according to the first interrupt signal, raising the STI signal by the slave device, and returning a second interrupt signal to the master device; and receiving a second interrupt signal through the main equipment, pulling down the MTI signal and the CS signal according to the second interrupt signal, and starting the main DMA controller.
In some embodiments, SPI bidirectional transmission is achieved using two conventional GPIO interfaces as interrupt acknowledgement signals. For example, the MTI is an interrupt signal output from the Master to the Slave, the STI is an interrupt signal output from the Slave to the Master, and the method of using the interrupt signal is described in the timing sequence, specifically, the timing sequence of transmitting data from the Master to the Slave is shown in fig. 3.
Referring to fig. 3, when the Master transmits data to the Slave, the SPI interface needs to be ensured to be idle before transmission, CS is high level, and STI and MTI are low level, specifically as follows:
a1: the Master pulls up the MTI signal and outputs a first interrupt signal to the Slave to inform the Slave that the Slave is ready to receive data.
A2: slave receives the MTI interrupt (i.e., first interrupt signal), and associates the memory space allocated from memory to the Slave DMA control And pulls the STI signal high, returning a second interrupt signal to the Master.
A3: the Master receives the STI interrupt (i.e., the second interrupt signal) and begins transmitting data while pulling down the MTI signal and the CS signal while the Master DMA controller is enabled.
A4: when the Master finishes transmitting data to the Slave, the Master pulls the CS signal high and the Slave pulls the STI signal low, and the SPI interface returns to an idle state.
In some embodiments, the first data to be transmitted is a first data frame generated according to a preset frame format, where the first data frame includes a first payload or a plurality of first payloads, a length of the first payload is smaller than a length of the first data frame, and a length of the plurality of first payloads and is smaller than a length of the first data frame. In the application, a preset frame format is customized according to actual requirements, and the specific table is as follows:
wherein, SOF: a start of frame, a frame start identifier, configured to determine whether valid data is loaded in a frame, where the frame is a fixed value of 0xCD 5A; multiple: a multiple of 256, an effective range of 1-127, with a highest bit of 1 indicating that this is an ACK frame; length: a byte count of less than 256; effective payload length of data frame: multiple 256+length, i.e., the number of bytes of payload1+ … … payload n; index: numbering of data frames, effective range 1-255, and the field is effective when effective data is transmitted; ACK-index: the number of the data frame is confirmed, and the effective range is 1 to 255. One data frame can carry valid data and ACK of the last data transmission at the same time, when bit7 of multiple is not 0, the data frame carries ACK, and the frame with ACK-index number is successfully received by the opposite terminal. When the index value is not 0, it indicates that the data frame carries valid data. TID: the receiving end is responsible for processing the module ID of the data packet, and the effective range is 1-255; len: the length of the data packet occupies 2 bytes; data: valid data of the data packet; CRC32: byte 0 to N-3, and the initial verification code calculated by the transmitting end.
Based on the foregoing embodiments, the sub-data is part of the content of the first data frame. The length of the first data frame may be set according to the actual transmission requirement, for example, fixed to 2k (2048 bytes), and the transmission time is T. When the length of the data packet to be transmitted by the upper layer is less than 2k, the time T is also consumed, and this time will cause bandwidth waste, and based on the above-mentioned custom data frame format, one data frame may contain multiple payload, and multiple payload is loaded in one data frame as much as possible, so as to improve the SPI bandwidth utilization.
Based on the foregoing embodiment, a CRC check field is added in the frame format, and after the link layer receives the data frame, it first determines whether the frame header is valid data, if so, the CRC is checked, and the data transmission is confirmed to be submitted to the driving layer.
In some embodiments, the method further includes pulling down the STI signal by the slave device and returning an acknowledgement signal of the first data frame to the master device when the transmission of data by the master device to the slave device ends, receiving the acknowledgement signal of the first data frame by the master device and pulling up the CS signal according to the acknowledgement signal of the first data frame, in this way, reliable transmission of data can be ensured to some extent, avoiding data errors. For example, for the driving layer, an ACK acknowledgement message (i.e. an acknowledgement signal of a data frame) is added to ensure reliable data transmission. The driving layer immediately gives a reply to the transmitting end (i.e. the master device) after receiving the data frame, and at this time, if the receiving end (i.e. the slave device) just has the data frame to transmit, an ACK acknowledgement message may be encapsulated into the data frame to be transmitted, where the ACK acknowledgement message indicates an acknowledgement signal of the previous transmission (i.e. an acknowledgement signal of the data frame transmitted from the master device to the slave device).
In some embodiments, the method further includes transmitting, by the master device, a data frame adjacent to the current first data frame to the slave device according to an acknowledgement signal of the current first data frame when the master device has a plurality of first data frames to transmit; if the master device does not receive an acknowledgement signal for the current first data frame, the transmission of the current first data frame to the slave device is continued, in this way the master buffer can be managed effectively. For example, for the driver layer, in cooperation with the ACK mechanism, the driver layer needs to increase a management policy for the data frame queue, so as to ensure reliable transmission of the SPI. Referring to fig. 5, the driving layer maintains a transmit data frame queue, black arrows point to the head of the frame queue, representing the next data frame to be transmitted, gray arrows represent the tail of the frame queue, and fills the data frame of gray arrows when there is a new data packet to be transmitted at the upper layer, and moves the gray arrow to the next data frame if the data frame is full. And after receiving the ACK confirmation message, the transmitting end releases the data frame pointed by the black arrow, namely the data frame adjacent to the current data frame.
In some embodiments, the data frame transmitted to the slave device is a first data frame when the master device is a sender, and the data frame transmitted to the master device is a second data frame when the slave device is a sender.
In some embodiments, the method further includes when the slave device receives the first data frame, determining, by the slave device, whether a frame start identifier of the first data frame is a first preset identifier, if the frame start identifier of the first data frame is the first preset identifier, generating a first target check code of the first data frame based on all bytes in the first data frame except bytes corresponding to the first initial check code, and determining whether the first data frame is valid according to the first initial check code and the first target check code, so that the correctness of the data can be checked.
Fig. 2 is a flowchart of another data transmission method applied to an electronic device according to an embodiment of the present application.
As shown in fig. 2, the above method may further include steps S210 to S260.
In step S210, a third interrupt signal is transmitted to the master device by pulling up the STI signal from the slave device.
In step S220, the third interrupt signal is received by the host device, and the CS signal is pulled down and the host DMA controller is started according to the third interrupt signal.
In step S230, the second data to be transferred is read from the slave memory by the slave DMA controller and written to the slave buffer of the slave device.
In step S240, the sub data of the slave buffer is transmitted to the master device through the SPI interface by the slave SPI controller.
In step S250, the received sub data is written to the main buffer of the master device by the master SPI controller.
In step S260, the sub data of the main buffer is read by the main DMA controller and written to the main memory.
According to the method, the STI signal can be pulled up by the slave device, the third interrupt signal is sent to the master device, the third interrupt signal is received by the master device, the CS signal is pulled down according to the third interrupt signal, the master DMA controller is started, the second data to be transmitted is read from the slave memory by the slave DMA controller, the second data to be transmitted is written into the slave buffer area of the slave device, the sub data of the slave buffer area is transmitted to the master device through the SPI interface by the slave SPI controller, the received sub data is written into the master buffer area of the master device by the master SPI controller, the sub data of the master buffer area is read by the master DMA controller, and the sub data of the master buffer area is written into the master memory, so that the slave device can actively initiate data transmission to the master device, and the data transmission efficiency can be improved based on the data transmission by the DMA controller.
In some embodiments, SPI bidirectional transmission is achieved using two conventional GPIO interfaces as interrupt acknowledgement signals. For example, the MTI is an interrupt signal output from the Master to the Slave, the STI is an interrupt signal output from the Slave to the Master, and the method of using the interrupt signal is described in the timing sequence, specifically, the timing sequence of transmitting data from the Slave to the Master as shown in fig. 4.
Referring to fig. 4, when the Slave transmits data to the Master, the SPI interface needs to be ensured to be idle before transmission, CS is high level, and STI and MTI are low level, specifically as follows:
b1: slave pulls up the STI signal, outputs a third interrupt signal to the Master, informing the Master that data is ready to be received.
B2: the Master receives the STI interrupt (i.e., the third interrupt signal), correlates the memory space allocated by the main memory to the main DMA controller, and pulls down the CS signal to begin receiving data.
B3: when the data transmission from the Slave to the Master is finished, the Master pulls the CS signal high, the Slave pulls the STI signal low, and the SPI interface returns to an idle state.
In some embodiments, the second data to be transmitted is a second data frame generated according to a preset frame format, wherein the second data frame includes a second payload or a plurality of second payloads, a length of the second payload is less than a length of the second data frame, and a length of the plurality of second payloads and is less than a length of the second data frame. In this embodiment, the frame format of the second data frame is the same as the frame format of the first data frame described above.
In some embodiments, the method further includes pulling up the CS signal by the master device and returning an acknowledgement signal of the second data frame to the slave device when the transmission of the data from the slave device to the master device is completed, and receiving the acknowledgement signal of the second data frame by the slave device and pulling down the STI signal according to the acknowledgement signal of the second data frame in such a way that reliable transmission of the data can be ensured to some extent, avoiding data errors. In this embodiment, the ACK mechanism is the same as the above-described acknowledgement manner when the master transmits data to the slave.
In some embodiments, the method further includes transmitting, by the slave device, a data frame adjacent to the current second data frame to the master device according to an acknowledgement signal of the current second data frame when the slave device has a plurality of second data frames to transmit; if the slave device does not receive an acknowledgement signal for the current second data frame, the transmission of the current second data frame to the master device continues in such a way that the slave buffer can be managed effectively. In this embodiment, the management policy of the data frame queue of the slave device is the same as that of the master device described above.
In some embodiments, the method further includes when the master device receives the second data frame, determining, by the master device, whether a frame start identifier of the second data frame is a second preset identifier, if the frame start identifier of the second data frame is the second preset identifier, generating a second target check code of the second data frame based on all bytes in the second data frame except bytes corresponding to the second initial check code, and determining whether the second data frame is valid according to the second initial check code and the second target check code, so that the correctness of the data can be checked.
