+Writing s390 channel device drivers
+===================================
+
+:Author: Cornelia Huck
+
+Introduction
+============
+
+This document describes the interfaces available for device drivers that
+drive s390 based channel attached I/O devices. This includes interfaces
+for interaction with the hardware and interfaces for interacting with
+the common driver core. Those interfaces are provided by the s390 common
+I/O layer.
+
+The document assumes a familarity with the technical terms associated
+with the s390 channel I/O architecture. For a description of this
+architecture, please refer to the "z/Architecture: Principles of
+Operation", IBM publication no. SA22-7832.
+
+While most I/O devices on a s390 system are typically driven through the
+channel I/O mechanism described here, there are various other methods
+(like the diag interface). These are out of the scope of this document.
+
+Some additional information can also be found in the kernel source under
+Documentation/s390/driver-model.txt.
+
+The ccw bus
+===========
+
+The ccw bus typically contains the majority of devices available to a
+s390 system. Named after the channel command word (ccw), the basic
+command structure used to address its devices, the ccw bus contains
+so-called channel attached devices. They are addressed via I/O
+subchannels, visible on the css bus. A device driver for
+channel-attached devices, however, will never interact with the
+subchannel directly, but only via the I/O device on the ccw bus, the ccw
+device.
+
+I/O functions for channel-attached devices
+------------------------------------------
+
+Some hardware structures have been translated into C structures for use
+by the common I/O layer and device drivers. For more information on the
+hardware structures represented here, please consult the Principles of
+Operation.

+ccw devices
+-----------
+
+Devices that want to initiate channel I/O need to attach to the ccw bus.
+Interaction with the driver core is done via the common I/O layer, which
+provides the abstractions of ccw devices and ccw device drivers.
+
+The functions that initiate or terminate channel I/O all act upon a ccw
+device structure. Device drivers must not bypass those functions or
+strange side effects may happen.

+The channel-measurement facility
+--------------------------------
+
+The channel-measurement facility provides a means to collect measurement
+data which is made available by the channel subsystem for each channel
+attached device.

+
+The ccwgroup bus
+================
+
+The ccwgroup bus only contains artificial devices, created by the user.
+Many networking devices (e.g. qeth) are in fact composed of several ccw
+devices (like read, write and data channel for qeth). The ccwgroup bus
+provides a mechanism to create a meta-device which contains those ccw
+devices as slave devices and can be associated with the netdevice.

+
+Generic interfaces
+==================
+
+Some interfaces are available to other drivers that do not necessarily
+have anything to do with the busses described above, but still are
+indirectly using basic infrastructure in the common I/O layer. One
+example is the support for adapter interrupts.
