Remote Processor Framework
|
||||
==========================
|
||||
|
||||
Introduction
|
||||
------------
|
||||
|
||||
This is an introduction to driver-model for Remote Processors found
|
||||
on various System on Chip(SoCs). The term remote processor is used to
|
||||
indicate that this is not the processor on which U-Boot is operating
|
||||
on, instead is yet another processing entity that may be controlled by
|
||||
the processor on which we are functional.
|
||||
|
||||
The simplified model depends on a single UCLASS - UCLASS_REMOTEPROC
|
||||
|
||||
UCLASS_REMOTEPROC:
|
||||
- drivers/remoteproc/rproc-uclass.c
|
||||
- include/remoteproc.h
|
||||
|
||||
Commands:
|
||||
- common/cmd_remoteproc.c
|
||||
|
||||
Configuration:
|
||||
- CONFIG_REMOTEPROC is selected by drivers as needed
|
||||
- CONFIG_CMD_REMOTEPROC for the commands if required.
|
||||
|
||||
How does it work - The driver
|
||||
-----------------------------
|
||||
|
||||
Overall, the driver statemachine transitions are typically as follows::
|
||||
|
||||
(entry)
|
||||
+-------+
|
||||
+---+ init |
|
||||
| | | <---------------------+
|
||||
| +-------+ |
|
||||
| |
|
||||
| |
|
||||
| +--------+ |
|
||||
Load| | reset | |
|
||||
| | | <----------+ |
|
||||
| +--------+ | |
|
||||
| |Load | |
|
||||
| | | |
|
||||
| +----v----+ reset | |
|
||||
+-> | | (opt) | |
|
||||
| Loaded +-----------+ |
|
||||
| | |
|
||||
+----+----+ |
|
||||
| Start |
|
||||
+---v-----+ (opt) |
|
||||
+->| Running | Stop |
|
||||
Ping +- | +--------------------+
|
||||
(opt) +---------+
|
||||
|
||||
(is_running does not change state)
|
||||
opt: Optional state transition implemented by driver.
|
||||
|
||||
NOTE: It depends on the remote processor as to the exact behavior
|
||||
of the statemachine, remoteproc core does not intent to implement
|
||||
statemachine logic. Certain processors may allow start/stop without
|
||||
reloading the image in the middle, certain other processors may only
|
||||
allow us to start the processor(image from a EEPROM/OTP) etc.
|
||||
|
||||
It is hence the responsibility of the driver to handle the requisite
|
||||
state transitions of the device as necessary.
|
||||
|
||||
Basic design assumptions:
|
||||
|
||||
Remote processor can operate on a certain firmware that maybe loaded
|
||||
and released from reset.
|
||||
|
||||
The driver follows a standard UCLASS DM.
|
||||
|
||||
in the bare minimum form:
|
||||
|
||||
.. code-block:: c
|
||||
|
||||
static const struct dm_rproc_ops sandbox_testproc_ops = {
|
||||
.load = sandbox_testproc_load,
|
||||
.start = sandbox_testproc_start,
|
||||
};
|
||||
|
||||
static const struct udevice_id sandbox_ids[] = {
|
||||
{.compatible = "sandbox,test-processor"},
|
||||
{}
|
||||
};
|
||||
|
||||
U_BOOT_DRIVER(sandbox_testproc) = {
|
||||
.name = "sandbox_test_proc",
|
||||
.of_match = sandbox_ids,
|
||||
.id = UCLASS_REMOTEPROC,
|
||||
.ops = &sandbox_testproc_ops,
|
||||
.probe = sandbox_testproc_probe,
|
||||
};
|
||||
|
||||
This allows for the device to be probed as part of the "init" command
|
||||
or invocation of 'rproc_init()' function as the system dependencies define.
|
||||
|
||||
The driver is expected to maintain it's own statemachine which is
|
||||
appropriate for the device it maintains. It must, at the very least
|
||||
provide a load and start function. We assume here that the device
|
||||
needs to be loaded and started, else, there is no real purpose of
|
||||
using the remoteproc framework.
|
||||
|
||||
Describing the device using platform data
|
||||
-----------------------------------------
|
||||
|
||||
*IMPORTANT* NOTE: THIS SUPPORT IS NOT MEANT FOR USE WITH NEWER PLATFORM
|
||||
SUPPORT. THIS IS ONLY FOR LEGACY DEVICES. THIS MODE OF INITIALIZATION
|
||||
*WILL* BE EVENTUALLY REMOVED ONCE ALL NECESSARY PLATFORMS HAVE MOVED
|
||||
TO DM/FDT.
|
||||
|
||||
Considering that many platforms are yet to move to device-tree model,
|
||||
a simplified definition of a device is as follows:
|
||||
|
||||
.. code-block:: c
|
||||
|
||||
struct dm_rproc_uclass_pdata proc_3_test = {
|
||||
.name = "proc_3_legacy",
|
||||
.mem_type = RPROC_INTERNAL_MEMORY_MAPPED,
|
||||
.driver_plat_data = &mydriver_data;
|
||||
};
|
||||
|
||||
U_BOOT_DEVICE(proc_3_demo) = {
|
||||
.name = "sandbox_test_proc",
|
||||
.platdata = &proc_3_test,
|
||||
};
|
||||
|
||||
There can be additional data that may be desired depending on the
|
||||
remoteproc driver specific needs (for example: SoC integration
|
||||
details such as clock handle or something similar). See appropriate
|
||||
documentation for specific remoteproc driver for further details.
|
||||
These are passed via driver_plat_data.
|
||||
|
||||
Describing the device using device tree
|
||||
---------------------------------------
|
||||
|
||||
.. code-block: none
|
||||
|
||||
/ {
|
||||
...
|
||||
aliases {
|
||||
...
|
||||
remoteproc0 = &rproc_1;
|
||||
remoteproc1 = &rproc_2;
|
||||
|
||||
};
|
||||
...
|
||||
|
||||
rproc_1: rproc@1 {
|
||||
compatible = "sandbox,test-processor";
|
||||
remoteproc-name = "remoteproc-test-dev1";
|
||||
};
|
||||
|
||||
rproc_2: rproc@2 {
|
||||
compatible = "sandbox,test-processor";
|
||||
internal-memory-mapped;
|
||||
remoteproc-name = "remoteproc-test-dev2";
|
||||
};
|
||||
...
|
||||
};
|
||||
|
||||
aliases usage is optional, but it is usually recommended to ensure the
|
||||
users have a consistent usage model for a platform.
|
||||
the compatible string used here is specific to the remoteproc driver involved.
