Subject: [PATCH v3 00/11] LIN Bus support for Linux

This series is introducing basic Local Interconnect Network (LIN) (ISO
17987) [0] support to the Linux kernel, along with two drivers that make
use of it: An advanced USB adapter and a lightweight serdev driver (for
UARTs equipped with a LIN transceiver).

The LIN bus is common in the automotive industry for connecting
low-level devices like side mirrors, seats, ambient lights, etc.

The LIN bus is a lower-cost bus system with a subset of features of CAN.
Its earlier specification (before ISO) is publicly accessible [1].

This series of patches follows up on a discussion initiated by an RFC
patch series [2].

The core of this series is the first patch, which implements the CAN_LIN
glue driver. It basically utilizes the CAN interface on one side and
for device drivers on the other side it creates a rx() function and
several callbacks.

This approach is non-invasive, as LIN frames (nearly identical to CAN
frames) are just treated as a special case of CAN frames. This approach
eliminates the need for a separate API for LIN, allowing the use of
existing CAN tools, including the CAN broadcast manager.

For the responder part of LIN, when a device responds to a controller
request, it can reply on up to LIN its 64 possible IDs (0...63) with a
maximum of 8 bytes payload.  The response must be sent relatively
quickly, so offloading is used (which is used by most devices anyway).
Devices that do not support offloading (like the lightweight serdev)
handle the list of responses in the driver on a best-effort basis.

The CAN broadcast manager (bcm) makes a good interface for the LIN
userland interface, bcm is therefore enhanced to handle the
configuration of these offload RX frames, so that the device can handle
the response on its own.  As a basic alternative, a sysfs file per LIN
identifier gets also introduced.

The USB device driver for the hexLIN [3] adapter uses the HID protocol
and is located in the drivers/hid directory. Which is a bit uncommon for
a CAN device, but this is a LIN device and mainly a hid driver.

The other driver, the UART lin-serdev driver requires support for break
detection, this is addressed by two serdev patches.

The lin-serdev driver has been tested on an ARM SoC, on its uart
(uart-pl011) an adapter board (hexLIN-tty [4]) has been used.  As a
sidenote, in that tty serial driver (amba-pl011.c) it was necessary to
disable DMA_ENGINE to accurately detect breaks [5].

The functions for generating LIN-Breaks and checksums, originally from
a line discipline driver named sllin [6], have been adopted into the
lin-serdev driver.

To make use of the LIN mode configuration (commander or responder)
option, a patch for iproute2 [7] has been made.

The lin-utils [8] provide userland tools for reference, testing, and
evaluation. These utilities are currently separate but may potentially
be integrated into can-utils in the future.

Changes in v3:
 - drop unneccessary mutex_lock/unlock and _destroy() in hexlin
 - add Kconfig depends for HID_MCS_HEXDEV
 - simplify reset retry in hexlin
 - simplify hid driver init
 - fix dt-bindings and its commit message
 - adapt and reorder includes
 - use unsigned long instead of ulong
 - use macro USEC_PER_SEC in linser_derive_timings()
 - drop goto in linser_tx_frame_as_responder() and use unlock+return
 - simplify linser_pop_fifo() by using kfifo_skip()
 - squash [PATCH v2 08/12] can: lin: Add special frame id for rx...

Changes in v2:
 - add open/stop functions to also address teardown issues
 - adapt dt-bindings description and add hexdev
 - use 'unsigned int' instead of 'uint'
 - add and adapt macros
 - address review comments
