1.1. 概述

      Linux内核中各个子系统相互依赖,当其中某个子系统状态发生改变时,就必须使用一定的机制告知使用其服务的其他子系统,以便其他子系统采取相应的措施。为满足这样的需求,内核实现了事件通知链机制(notificationchain)。
       通知链只能用在各个子系统之间,而不能在内核和用户空间进行事件的通知。组成内核的核心系统代码均位于kernel目录下,通知链表位于 kernel/notifier.c中,对应的头文件为include/linux/notifier.h。通知链表机制并不复杂,实现它的代码只有区区 几百行。
      事件通知链表是一个事件处理函数的列表,每个通知链都与某个或某些事件有关,当特定的事件发生时,就调用相应的事件通知链中的回调函数,进行相应的处理。

内核通知链

1.2.数据结构

如上图中所示,Linux的网络子系统一共有3个通知链:表示ipv4地址发生变化时的inetaddr_chain;表示ipv6地址发生变化的inet6addr_chain;还有表示设备注册、状态变化的netdev_chain。
在这些链中都是一个个notifier_block结构: 
 struct notifier_block {
     int (*notifier_call)(struct notifier_block *, unsigned long, void *);
     struct notifier_block *next;
     int priority;
 };
其中,
  1. notifier_call:当相应事件发生时应该调用的函数,由被通知方提供,如other_subsys_1;
  2. notifier_block *next:用于链接成链表的指针;
  3. priority:回调函数的优先级,一般默认为0。
内核代码中一般把通知链命名为xxx_chain, xxx_nofitier_chain这种形式的变量名。围绕核心数据结构notifier_block,内核定义了四种通知链类型:
1. 原子通知链(Atomic notifier chains):通知链元素的回调函数(当事件发生时要执行的函数)在中断或原子操作上下文中运行,不允许阻塞。对应的链表头结构:
 struct atomic_notifier_head {
     spinlock_t lock;
     struct notifier_block *head;
 };
2. 可阻塞通知链(Blocking notifier chains):通知链元素的回调函数在进程上下文中运行,允许阻塞。对应的链表头:
 struct blocking_notifier_head {
     struct rw_semaphore rwsem;
     struct notifier_block *head;
 };
3. 原始通知链(Raw notifierchains):对通知链元素的回调函数没有任何限制,所有锁和保护机制都由调用者维护。对应的链表头: 网络子系统就是该类型,通过以下宏实现head的初始化
 static RAW_NOTIFIER_HEAD(netdev_chain);
 #define RAW_NOTIFIER_INIT(name)  {  \
        .head= NULL }
 #define RAW_NOTIFIER_HEAD(name)    \  //调用他就好了
 struct raw_notifier_head name =    \
            RAW_NOTIFIER_INIT(name)
 即:
 struct raw_notifier_head netdev_chain = {
      .head = NULL;
 }
而其回调函数的注册,比如向netdev_chain的注册函数:register_netdevice_notifier。
 struct raw_notifier_head {
     struct notifier_block *head;
 };
4. SRCU 通知链(SRCU notifier chains):可阻塞通知链的一种变体。对应的链表头:
 struct srcu_notifier_head {
     struct mutex mutex;
     struct srcu_struct srcu;
     struct notifier_block *head;
 };
1.3. 运行机理
被通知一方(other_subsys_x)通过notifier_chain_register向特定的chain注册回调函数,并且一般而言特定的子系统会用特定的notifier_chain_register包装函数来注册,比如路由子系统使用的是网络子系统的:register_netdevice_notifier来注册他的notifier_block。

1.3.1. 向事件通知链注册的步骤

1. 申明struct notifier_block结构
2. 编写notifier_call函数
3. 调用特定的事件通知链的注册函数,将notifier_block注册到通知链中
如果内核组件需要处理够某个事件通知链上发出的事件通知,其就该在初始化时在该通知链上注册回调函数。

1.3.2. 通知子系统有事件发生

inet_subsys是通过notifier_call_chain来通知其他的子系统(other_subsys_x)的。
notifier_call_chain会按照通知链上各成员的优先级顺序执行回调函数(notifier_call_x);回调函数的执行现场在 notifier_call_chain进程地址空间;其返回值是NOTIFY_XXX的形式,在include/linux/notifier.h中:
 #define NOTIFY_DONE             0x0000 /* 对事件视而不见 */
 #define NOTIFY_OK                   0x0001 /* 事件正确处理 */
 #define NOTIFY_STOP_MASK 0x8000 /*由notifier_call_chain检查,看继续调用回调函数,还是停止,_BAD和_STOP中包含该标志 */
 #define NOTIFY_BAD   (NOTIFY_STOP_MASK|0x0002) /*事件处理出错,不再继续调用回调函数 */
 /*
  *Clean way to return from the notifier and stop further calls.
  */

 #define NOTIFY_STOP   (NOTIFY_OK|NOTIFY_STOP_MASK) /* 回调出错,不再继续调用该事件回调函数 */
notifier_call_chain捕获并返回最后一个事件处理函数的返回值;注意:notifier_call_chain可能同时被不同的cpu调用,故而调用者必须保证互斥。

1.3.3. 事件列表

       对于网络子系统而言,其事件常以NETDEV_XXX命名;描述了网络设备状态(dev->flags)、传送队列状态 (dev->state)、设备注册状态(dev->reg_state),以及设备的硬件功能特性(dev->features):
include/linux/notifier.h中
 /* netdevice notifier chain */
 #define NETDEV_UP                        0x0001 /* 激活一个网络设备 */
 #define NETDEV_DOWN                 0x0002f /* 停止一个网络设备,所有对该设备的引用都应释放 */
 #define NETDEV_REBOOT       0x0003   /* 检查到网络设备接口硬件崩溃,硬件重启 */
 #define NETDEV_CHANGE            0x0004 /* 网络设备的数据包队列状态发生改变 */
 #define NETDEV_REGISTER         0x0005 /* 一个网络设备事例注册到系统中,但尚未激活 */
 #define NETDEV_UNREGISTER   0x0006   /* 网络设备驱动已卸载 */
 #define NETDEV_CHANGEMTU    0x0007 /* MTU发生了改变 */
 #define NETDEV_CHANGEADDR 0x0008 /* 硬件地址发生了改变 */
 #define NETDEV_GOING_DOWN   0x0009 /* 网络设备即将注销,有dev->close报告,通知相关子系统处理 */
 #define NETDEV_CHANGENAME           0x000A /* 网络设备名改变 */
 #define NETDEV_FEAT_CHANGE           0x000B /* feature网络硬件功能改变 */
 #define NETDEV_BONDING_FAILOVER 0x000C
 #define NETDEV_PRE_UP                        0x000D
 #define NETDEV_BONDING_OLDTYPE 0x000E
 #define NETDEV_BONDING_NEWTYPE 0x000F

1.4. 简单一例:

       通过上面所述,notifier_chain机制只能在内核个子系统间使用,因此,这里使用3个模块:test_notifier_chain_0、 test_notifier_chain_1、test_notifier_chain_2。
       当 test_notifier_chain_2通过module_init初始化模块时发出事件TESTCHAIN_2_INIT;然后 test_notifier_chain_1作出相应的处理:打印 test_notifier_chain_2正在初始化。
 /* test_chain_0.c :0. 申明一个通知链;1. 向内核注册通知链;2. 定义事件; 3. 导出符号,因而必需最后退出*/

来源: 内核通知链原理及机制

  内核通知链不是一个很复杂的东西,但是在内核中应用却很重要,当然也有很多人写过它的文章,当然这里写只供学习之用.
   参考资料《深入理解linux网络内幕》,网络上一些文章. 
   通知链只在内核子系统之间使用,内核和用户空间的通知信息由其他机制来处理,比如ioctl. 
   内核源码参考: include/linux/notifier.h   
              kernel/notifier.c 
  通知链的基本数据结构定义:
 struct notifier_block {
  int (*notifier_call)(struct notifier_block *, unsigned long, void *);
  struct notifier_block __rcu *next;
  int priority;
};
通知链的本质注册函数:
/*
 * Notifier chain core routines. The exported routines below
 * are layered on top of these, with appropriate locking added.
 */
static int notifier_chain_register(struct notifier_block **nl,
        struct notifier_block *n)
{
    while ((*nl) != NULL) {
        if (n->priority > (*nl)->priority)
            break;
        nl = &((*nl)->next);
    }
    n->next = *nl;
    rcu_assign_pointer(*nl, n);
    return 0;
}
通用通知的产生:
notifier_call_chain函数
/**
 * notifier_call_chain - Informs the registered notifiers about an event.
 * @nl:       Pointer to head of the blocking notifier chain
 * @val:      Value passed unmodified to notifier function
 * @v:    Pointer passed unmodified to notifier function
 * @nr_to_call:   Number of notifier functions to be called. Don't care
 *         value of this parameter is -1.
 * @nr_calls: Records the number of notifications sent. Don't care
 *         value of this field is NULL.
 * @returns:  notifier_call_chain returns the value returned by the
 *         last notifier function called.
 */
static int __kprobes notifier_call_chain(struct notifier_block **nl,
                    unsigned long val, void *v,
                    int nr_to_call, int *nr_calls)
{
    int ret = NOTIFY_DONE;
    struct notifier_block *nb, *next_nb;
 
    nb = rcu_dereference_raw(*nl);
 
    while (nb && nr_to_call) {
        next_nb = rcu_dereference_raw(nb->next);
 
#ifdef CONFIG_DEBUG_NOTIFIERS
        if (unlikely(!func_ptr_is_kernel_text(nb->notifier_call))) {
            WARN(1, "Invalid notifier called!");
            nb = next_nb;
            continue;
        }
#endif
        ret = nb->notifier_call(nb, val, v);
 
        if (nr_calls)
            (*nr_calls)++;
 
        if ((ret & NOTIFY_STOP_MASK) == NOTIFY_STOP_MASK)
            break;
        nb = next_nb;
        nr_to_call--;
    }
    return ret;
}
它有四种变体类型:
这里列出notifier.h中的一段注释
 /*
 * Notifier chains are of four types:
 *
 * Atomic notifier chains: Chain callbacks run in interrupt/atomic
 * context. Callouts are not allowed to block.
 * Blocking notifier chains: Chain callbacks run in process context.
 * Callouts are allowed to block.
 * Raw notifier chains: There are no restrictions on callbacks,
 * registration, or unregistration.  All locking and protection
 * must be provided by the caller.
 * SRCU notifier chains: A variant of blocking notifier chains, with
 * the same restrictions.
 *
 * atomic_notifier_chain_register() may be called from an atomic context,
 * but blocking_notifier_chain_register() and srcu_notifier_chain_register()
 * must be called from a process context.  Ditto for the corresponding
 * _unregister() routines.
 *
 * atomic_notifier_chain_unregister(), blocking_notifier_chain_unregister(),
 * and srcu_notifier_chain_unregister() _must not_ be called from within
 * the call chain.
 *
 * SRCU notifier chains are an alternative form of blocking notifier chains.
 * They use SRCU (Sleepable Read-Copy Update) instead of rw-semaphores for
 * protection of the chain links.  This means there is _very_ low overhead
 * in srcu_notifier_call_chain(): no cache bounces and no memory barriers.
 * As compensation, srcu_notifier_chain_unregister() is rather expensive.
 * SRCU notifier chains should be used when the chain will be called very
 * often but notifier_blocks will seldom be removed.  Also, SRCU notifier
 * chains are slightly more difficult to use because they require special
 * runtime initialization.
 */

1. 原子通知链( Atomic notifier chains):通知链元素的回调函数(当事件发生时要执行的函数)只能在中断上下文中运行,不允许阻塞
   struct atomic_notifier_head {
     spinlock_t lock;
     struct notifier_block __rcu *head;
   };
 2. 可阻塞通知链( Blocking notifier chains):通知链元素的回调函数在进程上下文中运行,允许阻塞
   struct blocking_notifier_head {
     struct rw_semaphore rwsem;
     struct notifier_block __rcu *head;
   };
 3. 原始通知链( Raw notifier chains):对通知链元素的回调函数没有任何限制,所有锁和保护机制都由调用者维护
   struct raw_notifier_head {
     struct notifier_block __rcu *head;
   };
4. SRCU 通知链( SRCU notifier chains ):可阻塞通知链的一种变体
   struct srcu_notifier_head {
     struct mutex mutex;
     struct srcu_struct srcu;
     struct notifier_block __rcu *head;
   };
这里我们并不会逐个分析,只分析原始通知链( Raw notifier chains). 
当然在分析前先提下,内核总已经定义的一些链:
  死亡提醒 通过register_die_notifier注册, 当内核函数触发了一个陷阱或违例错误发送,由oops页错误或断点命中引发。例如为一个医学级别卡写设备驱动,你可能想注册自己给死亡提醒者,以在内核崩溃发生时关闭医疗电子信号。
  网路设备提醒  通过register_netdevice_notifier注册:网络接口启动或关闭时产生。
   CPU频率提醒  通过cpufreq_register_notifier注册:当处理器频率跃变时分发出去。
   因特网地址提醒 通过register_inetaddr_notifier注册:当网络接口的IP地址发生变化被检测时发送
当然内核还有其他这里不再一一列出.
这里以netif_carrier_on为例子来分析下,它的原理和机制.
这个函数是检测网卡链路状态的情况,来通知内核子系统做出相应的处理.它主要会用在网络设备给的驱动里.
drivers/net/*
/**
 * netif_carrier_on - set carrier
 * @dev: network device
 *
 * Device has detected that carrier.
 */
void netif_carrier_on(struct net_device *dev)
{
    if (test_and_clear_bit(__LINK_STATE_NOCARRIER, &dev->state)) {
        if (dev->reg_state == NETREG_UNINITIALIZED)
            return;
        linkwatch_fire_event(dev);
        if (netif_running(dev))
            __netdev_watchdog_up(dev);
    }
}
这里我们关注主要函数linkwatch_fire_event(dev);即如何通知处理例程.
void linkwatch_fire_event(struct net_device *dev)
{
   bool urgent = linkwatch_urgent_event(dev);
   if (!test_and_set_bit(__LINK_STATE_LINKWATCH_PENDING, &dev->state)) {
       linkwatch_add_event(dev);
   } else if (!urgent)
       return;
   linkwatch_schedule_work(urgent);
}
这个函数里面有两个关键操作,不用我说大家也看的明白:
linkwatch_add_event(dev);和 linkwatch_schedule_work(urgent);
在看上面代码中我们知道在调用linkwatch_add_event(dev); 前做了一些有助于后续工作的初始化工作:
bool urgent = linkwatch_urgent_event(dev);
为了后来的调度队列的工作. 
static void linkwatch_add_event(struct net_device *dev)
{
    unsigned long flags;
 
    spin_lock_irqsave(&lweventlist_lock, flags);
    if (list_empty(&dev->link_watch_list)) {
        list_add_tail(&dev->link_watch_list, &lweventlist);
        dev_hold(dev);
    }
    spin_unlock_irqrestore(&lweventlist_lock, flags);
}
把监测到链路有载波的设备添加进入队列使用的链表:lweventlist
然后调度队列的执行.
static void linkwatch_schedule_work(int urgent)
{
    unsigned long delay = linkwatch_nextevent - jiffies;
 
    if (test_bit(LW_URGENT, &linkwatch_flags))
        return;
 
    /* Minimise down-time: drop delay for up event. */
    if (urgent) {
        if (test_and_set_bit(LW_URGENT, &linkwatch_flags))
            return;
        delay = 0;
    }
 
    /* If we wrap around we'll delay it by at most HZ. */
    if (delay > HZ)
        delay = 0;
 
    /*
     * This is true if we've scheduled it immeditately or if we don't
     * need an immediate execution and it's already pending.
     */
    if (schedule_delayed_work(&linkwatch_work, delay) == !delay)
        return;
 
    /* Don't bother if there is nothing urgent. */
    if (!test_bit(LW_URGENT, &linkwatch_flags))
        return;
 
    /* It's already running which is good enough. */
    if (!__cancel_delayed_work(&linkwatch_work))
        return;
 
    /* Otherwise we reschedule it again for immediate execution. */
    schedule_delayed_work(&linkwatch_work, 0);
}
调度工作队列linkwatch_work.这里我们看下它的初始化:
static DECLARE_DELAYED_WORK(linkwatch_work, linkwatch_event); 
即调度工作队列的执行函数:
static void linkwatch_event(struct work_struct *dummy)
{
   rtnl_lock();
  __linkwatch_run_queue(time_after(linkwatch_nextevent, jiffies));
  rtnl_unlock();
}
  __linkwatch_run_queue
static void __linkwatch_run_queue(int urgent_only)
{
    struct net_device *dev;
    LIST_HEAD(wrk);
 
    /*
     * Limit the number of linkwatch events to one
     * per second so that a runaway driver does not
     * cause a storm of messages on the netlink
     * socket. This limit does not apply to up events
     * while the device qdisc is down.
     */
    if (!urgent_only)
        linkwatch_nextevent = jiffies + HZ;
    /* Limit wrap-around effect on delay. */
    else if (time_after(linkwatch_nextevent, jiffies + HZ))
        linkwatch_nextevent = jiffies;
 
    clear_bit(LW_URGENT, &linkwatch_flags);
 
    spin_lock_irq(&lweventlist_lock);
    list_splice_init(&lweventlist, &wrk);
 
    while (!list_empty(&wrk)) {
 
        dev = list_first_entry(&wrk, struct net_device, link_watch_list);
        list_del_init(&dev->link_watch_list);
 
        if (urgent_only && !linkwatch_urgent_event(dev)) {
            list_add_tail(&dev->link_watch_list, &lweventlist);
            continue;
        }
        spin_unlock_irq(&lweventlist_lock);
        linkwatch_do_dev(dev);
        spin_lock_irq(&lweventlist_lock);
    }
 
    if (!list_empty(&lweventlist))
        linkwatch_schedule_work(0);
    spin_unlock_irq(&lweventlist_lock);
}
这个函数把链表lweventlist和工作队列linkwatch_work联系起来.
然后真正调用通知链处理函数
linkwatch_do_dev(dev);------>netdev_state_change(dev);
 /**
 * netdev_state_change - device changes state
 * @dev: device to cause notification
 *
 * Called to indicate a device has changed state. This function calls
 * the notifier chains for netdev_chain and sends a NEWLINK message
 * to the routing socket.
 */

void netdev_state_change(struct net_device *dev)
{
     if (dev->flags & IFF_UP) {
         call_netdevice_notifiers(NETDEV_CHANGE, dev);
         rtmsg_ifinfo(RTM_NEWLINK, dev, 0);
     }
}
这里我们只关心call_netdevice_notifiers(NETDEV_CHANGE, dev);
  /**
 * call_netdevice_notifiers - call all network notifier blocks
 *    @val: value passed unmodified to notifier function
 *    @dev: net_device pointer passed unmodified to notifier function
 *
 * Call all network notifier blocks.  Parameters and return value
 * are as for raw_notifier_call_chain().
 */

int call_netdevice_notifiers(unsigned long val, struct net_device *dev)
{
   ASSERT_RTNL();
   return raw_notifier_call_chain(&netdev_chain, val, dev);
}
它查询通知链netdev_chain上所有对NETDEV_CHANGE感兴趣的处理事件.
当然这个例子是通过工作队列的形式来监控和通知内核子系统来处理事件,多少看起来有点复杂.
也有其他的调用模式,比如在net/core/dev.c中的dev_open函数:
 /**
 * dev_open - prepare an interface for use.
 * @dev: device to open
 *
 * Takes a device from down to up state. The device's private open
