can: ucan: add driver for Theobroma Systems UCAN devices

The UCAN driver supports the microcontroller-based USB/CAN
adapters from Theobroma Systems. There are two form-factors
that run essentially the same firmware:

* Seal: standalone USB stick ( https://www.theobroma-systems.com/seal )

* Mule: integrated on the PCB of various System-on-Modules from
  Theobroma Systems like the A31-µQ7 and the RK3399-Q7
  ( https://www.theobroma-systems.com/rk3399-q7 )

The USB wire protocol has been designed to be as generic and
hardware-indendent as possible in the hope of being useful for
implementation on other microcontrollers.

=================
The UCAN Protocol
=================
UCAN is the protocol used by the microcontroller-based USB-CAN
adapter that is integrated on System-on-Modules from Theobroma Systems
and that is also available as a standalone USB stick.
The UCAN protocol has been designed to be hardware-independent.
It is modeled closely after how Linux represents CAN devices
internally. All multi-byte integers are encoded as Little Endian.
All structures mentioned in this document are defined in
``drivers/net/can/usb/ucan.c``.
USB Endpoints
=============
UCAN devices use three USB endpoints:
CONTROL endpoint
The driver sends device management commands on this endpoint
IN endpoint
The device sends CAN data frames and CAN error frames
OUT endpoint
The driver sends CAN data frames on the out endpoint
CONTROL Messages
================
UCAN devices are configured using vendor requests on the control pipe.
To support multiple CAN interfaces in a single USB device all
configuration commands target the corresponding interface in the USB
descriptor.
The driver uses ``ucan_ctrl_command_in/out`` and
``ucan_device_request_in`` to deliver commands to the device.
Setup Packet
------------
================= =====================================================
``bmRequestType`` Direction | Vendor | (Interface or Device)
``bRequest`` Command Number
``wValue`` Subcommand Number (16 Bit) or 0 if not used
``wIndex`` USB Interface Index (0 for device commands)
``wLength`` * Host to Device - Number of bytes to transmit
* Device to Host - Maximum Number of bytes to
receive. If the device send less. Commom ZLP
semantics are used.
================= =====================================================
Error Handling
--------------
The device indicates failed control commands by stalling the
pipe.

UCAN_COMMAND_GET_INFO

``can_bittiming fields``.

protocol version 1
UCAN_COMMAND_SET_BITTIMING

*Host2Dev; optional*

Legal Device State Command New Device State
================== =================== ==================
stopped SET_BITTIMING stopped
stopped START started
started STOP or RESET stopped
stopped STOP or RESET stopped
started RESTART started
any GET *no change*
================== =================== ==================
IN Message Format
=================
A data packet on the USB IN endpoint contains one or more
``ucan_message_in`` values. If multiple messages are batched in a USB
data packet, the ``len`` field can be used to jump to the next
``ucan_message_in`` value (take care to sanity-check the ``len`` value
against the actual data size).
.. _can_ucan_in_message_len:
``len`` field
-------------
Each ``ucan_message_in`` must be aligned to a 4-byte boundary (relative
to the start of the start of the data buffer). That means that there
may be padding bytes between multiple ``ucan_message_in`` values:
.. code::
+----------------------------+ < 0
| |
| struct ucan_message_in |
| |
+----------------------------+ < len
[padding]
+----------------------------+ < round_up(len, 4)
| |
| struct ucan_message_in |
| |
+----------------------------+
[...]
``type`` field
--------------
The ``type`` field specifies the type of the message.
UCAN_IN_RX
~~~~~~~~~~
``subtype``
zero
Data received from the CAN bus (ID + payload).
UCAN_IN_TX_COMPLETE
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
``subtype``
zero
The CAN device has sent a message to the CAN bus. It answers with a
list of of tuples <echo-ids, flags>.
The echo-id identifies the frame from (echos the id from a previous
UCAN_OUT_TX message). The flag indicates the result of the
transmission. Whereas a set Bit 0 indicates success. All other bits
are reserved and set to zero.
Flow Control
------------
When receiving CAN messages there is no flow control on the USB
buffer. The driver has to handle inbound message quickly enough to
avoid drops. I case the device buffer overflow the condition is
reported by sending corresponding error frames (see
:ref:`can_ucan_error_handling`)
OUT Message Format
==================
A data packet on the USB OUT endpoint contains one or more ``struct
ucan_message_out`` values. If multiple messages are batched into one
data packet, the device uses the ``len`` field to jump to the next
ucan_message_out value. Each ucan_message_out must be aligned to 4
bytes (relative to the start of the data buffer). The mechanism is
same as described in :ref:`can_ucan_in_message_len`.
.. code::
+----------------------------+ < 0
| |
| struct ucan_message_out |
| |
+----------------------------+ < len
[padding]
+----------------------------+ < round_up(len, 4)
| |
| struct ucan_message_out |
| |
+----------------------------+
[...]
``type`` field
--------------
In protocol version 3 only ``UCAN_OUT_TX`` is defined, others are used
only by legacy devices (protocol version 1).
UCAN_OUT_TX
~~~~~~~~~~~
``subtype``
echo id to be replied within a CAN_IN_TX_COMPLETE message
Transmit a CAN frame. (parameters: ``id``, ``data``)
Flow Control
------------
When the device outbound buffers are full it starts sending *NAKs* on
the *OUT* pipe until more buffers are available. The driver stops the
queue when a certain threshold of out packets are incomplete.
.. _can_ucan_error_handling:
CAN Error Handling
==================
If error reporting is turned on the device encodes errors into CAN
error frames (see ``uapi/linux/can/error.h``) and sends it using the
IN endpoint. The driver updates its error statistics and forwards
it.
Although UCAN devices can suppress error frames completely, in Linux
the driver is always interested. Hence, the device is always started with
the ``UCAN_MODE_BERR_REPORT`` set. Filtering those messages for the
user space is done by the driver.
Bus OFF
-------
- The device does not recover from bus of automatically.
- Bus OFF is indicated by an error frame (see ``uapi/linux/can/error.h``)
- Bus OFF recovery is started by ``UCAN_COMMAND_RESTART``
- Once Bus OFF recover is completed the device sends an error frame
indicating that it is on ERROR-ACTIVE state.
- During Bus OFF no frames are sent by the device.
- During Bus OFF transmission requests from the host are completed
immediately with the success bit left unset.
Example Conversation
====================
#) Device is connected to USB
#) Host sends command ``UCAN_COMMAND_RESET``, subcmd 0
#) Host sends command ``UCAN_COMMAND_GET``, subcmd ``UCAN_COMMAND_GET_INFO``
#) Device sends ``UCAN_IN_DEVICE_INFO``
#) Host sends command ``UCAN_OUT_SET_BITTIMING``
#) Host sends command ``UCAN_COMMAND_START``, subcmd 0, mode ``UCAN_MODE_BERR_REPORT``
