Subject: [PATCH v4 0/8] dmaengine/dra7x: DMA router (crossbar support)

Hi,

Vinod: is it OK if I send the Documnetation/dmanegine/ update a bit later when
we agree on what form it should be?

Changes since v3:
- Comments from Russell:
- Warnings removed in case of non DT boot when taking the DMA request number
- Reduced the number of channels presented to DMAengine
- removed the dma_sig parameter from omap_dma_chan_init()
- Comments from Arnd:
- dma-device property renamed to dma-masters
- Allow list of phandes in dma-masters

Changes since v2:
- not using regmap for the TI crossbar driver.

Changes since v1:
- Comments from Russell King and Paul Bolle addressed:
- Use the added defined in the omap-dma changes
- MODULE_* removed from the ti-dma-crossbar driver.
- DMA router documentation: do not limit the #dma-cells to be the same as the
dma controller's #dma-cells. It might be possible to have a router which needs
more information than the DMA controller (direct request pairing for example)
- Use defines in the ti-dma-crossbar driver
- Binding document for the ti-dma-crossbar driver

Intro mail from v1:

The series adds support for DMA router type of devices. They are used in SoCs
which has more peripherals with DMA request lines than the DMA controller can
handle.
The router itself is not part of the DMA controller and it's operation should be
transparent (as it is in the HW) for the SW stack.

This series takes into accound the comments Sricharan received for his version
of the crossbar driver:
https://lkml.org/lkml/2014/3/7/199

This implementation is not tied to any DMA driver so it is possible to use the
framework by other vendors, also ACPI version of binding can be easy enough to
be added.

Regards,
Peter

Subject: [PATCH v4 1/8] dmaengine: of_dma: Support for DMA routers

DMA routers are transparent devices used to mux DMA requests from
peripherals to DMA controllers. They are used when the SoC integrates more
devices with DMA requests then their controller can handle.
DRA7x is one example of such SoC, where the sDMA can hanlde 128 DMA request
lines, but in SoC level it has 205 DMA requests.

The of_dma_router will be registered as of_dma_controller with special
xlate function and additional parameters. The driver for the router is
responsible to craft the dma_spec (in the of_dma_route_allocate callback)
which can be used to requests a DMA channel from the real DMA controller.
This way the router can be transparent for the system while remaining generic
enough to be used in different environments.

+* DMA router
+
+DMA routers are transparent IP blocks used to route DMA request lines from
+devices to the DMA controller. Some SoCs (like TI DRA7x) have more peripherals
+integrated with DMA requests than what the DMA controller can handle directly.
+
+Required property:
+- dma-masters: phandle of the DMA controller or list of phandles for
+ the DMA controllers the router can direct the signal to.
+- #dma-cells: Must be at least 1. Used to provide DMA router specific
+ information. See DMA client binding below for more
+ details.
+
+Optional properties:
+- dma-requests: Number of incoming request lines the router can handle.
+- In the node pointed by the dma-masters:
+ - dma-requests: The router driver might need to look for this in order
+ to configure the routing.
+
+Example:
+ sdma_xbar: dma-router@4a002b78 {
+ compatible = "ti,dra7-dma-crossbar";
+ reg = <0x4a002b78 0xfc>;
+ #dma-cells = <1>;
+ dma-requests = <205>;
+ ti,dma-safe-map = <0>;
+ dma-masters = <&sdma>;

Use the dma-requests property from DT to get the number of DMA requests.
In case of legacy boot or failure to find the property, use the default

Subject: [PATCH v4 6/8] dmaengine: omap-dma: Remove mapping between virtual channels and requests

Do not direct map the virtual channels to sDMA request number. When the
sDMA is behind of a crossbar this direct mapping can cause situations when
certain channel can not be requested since the crossbar request number
will no longer match with the sDMA request line.
The direct mapping for virtual channels with HW request lines will make it
harder to implement MEM_TO_MEM mode for the driver.

Since the mapping between the hardware request lines and channels has been

Silently casting val (an integer) to a u16 isn't really nice I

You can use devm_ioremap_resource here.

Can that be moved to a header / C file of its own?

There's a lot of various code already in dmaengine.h and dmaengine.c,
it would be really great to avoid adding more random stuff in there.

Is that expected that you allocate through kzalloc, but never have a

I don't really see why this is really tied to the device tree.

Couldn't we use the device_alloc_chan_resources to do that?

The value in val is guarantied not to overflow the u16, but sure, I can change

If kzalloc fails we have other things to worry about, but true, I'll
restructure the code to avoid leaking the node.

This patch adds the core support for DMA signal routers. It adds fairly small
amount of generic code to the core to achieve this. I don't think it would be
better to create let's say of-dma-router.c and .h just for this and export
functions from of-dma.c to be used outside of the file.

The free is via the of_dma_router_free() in case the router is removed
runtime, which is unlikely to happen since it will cause all DMA request to fail.

The signal router is not a DMA device, it is represented in the device tree
and the code will do the needed translation, which is transparent for the DMA
clients and also for the DMA controllers. Neither should know about the signal
router.
Similar translation can be done for ACPI.

> Couldn't we use the device_alloc_chan_resources to do that?

Not really. The router itself is not a DMA controller. The routing need to be
configured before the device_alloc_chan_resources can be called for the real
DMA controller. The signal router (core part + the HW driver) need to prepare
the route and do the translation so the filter function of the DMA driver can
validate the translated request.

A lot of "a fairly small amount of generic code" has been added over
time, and we ended up in the current situation.

It's a bit sad if we just end up moving this just after it got merged,
especially if it doesn't have any kind of dependency on any of the
core function.

Yeah, I got that part, and we do agree on that.

> Similar translation can be done for ACPI.

But this argument is exactly why it shouldn't be tied to the device
tree. We wouldn't like to re-do all this all over again for ACPI,
while your code seems to just handle that very well, wouldn't we?

Ah, yes, hence why you need a custom xlate function. Got it, thanks!

So that we have fairly good dmaengine core? If people using the code, they
will eventually fix things, add new features. When dmaengine came to existence
we did not had DMA routers, now that the SoCs are getting even more
complicated they are coming (in case of DRA7x, it is already here).

This provides core functionality to handle DMA signal routers via DT. It does
depend on the DT DMA parsing core code as it integrates with it.

The data structures used by the DT and ACPI layers are different. Underneath
DT and ACPI we do not have enough information on how to handle the DMA signal
router. If you happen to have multiple DMA controllers in the system for
example how would you tell how the routers are connected?
In DRA7x we have sDMA and eDMA controllers. Both have similar DMA crossbar. It
is only possible to know the hierarchy of the components via DT. I'm sure this
is the same for ACPI. You take away the ACPI layer and you loose the topology
of the system.
Probably with huge architectural change in the dmaengine core (and thus with
all the drivers) this might be possible, but I don't think that is a valid
route to take.
