Subject: [PATCH v4 01/11] mfd: add pruss mfd driver.

This patch adds the pruss MFD driver and associated include files.
For details regarding the PRUSS please refer the folowing link:
http://processors.wiki.ti.com/index.php/Programmable_Realtime_Unit_Subsystem

The rational behind the MFD driver being the fact that multiple devices can
be implemented on the cores independently. This is determined by the nature
of the program which is loaded into the PRU's instruction memory.
A device may be de-initialized and another loaded or two different devices
can be run simultaneously on the two cores.
It's also possible, as in our case, to implement a single device on both
the PRU's resulting in improved load sharing.

if you make a array for these

+struct pruss_map {
+ u8 dram0[512];
+ u8 res1[7680];

+ u8 dram1[512];
+ u8 res2[7680];
..}

you don't need the if..else..

no need to lock the ram reset below?

SG -- I don't think its required. We just reset the RAM during init and
since each pru can only be attached to only one device, the access
will be already serialized based upon the pru num.

if you make a array for these

+ u8 dram0[512];
+ u8 res1[7680];

+ u8 dram1[512];

you don't need the if..else..

SG - The dram/iram is not contiguous, there is a reserved space in between,
how do I declare an array for it.

In the other function you lock the access to the ram, but not here.

This is the struct you have:

struct pruss_map {
u8 dram0[512];
u8 res1[7680];

u8 dram1[512];
u8 res2[7680];
...
}

If you want to describe the ram with an array it translates to:

struct pruss_dram {
u8 dram[512];
u8 res[7680];
};

struct pruss_map {
struct pruss_dram[2];
...
};

BTW: Why do you declare the dram as "u8" "u32" seems more natural to me.

You could use memcpy_toio() - although it seems it does copy bytes
internally.

Actually, it is _provided_ you don't directly dereference it. You can
then do pointer arithmetic on it in the usual way - which is about the
only valid thing to do with an __iomem pointer. The voidness just acts
as an additional check against direct dereferences of this.

The important thing though is that the code passes sparse checks.

Hi Subhasish,

This looks like great progress since the last time I looked at the
pruss mfd driver, good work there!

Thanks to your explanations and the documentation link, I now have
a better understanding of what is actually going on here, but I'd
still like to understandhow the decision is made regarding what programs
are loaded into each PRU and how the MFD cells are set up.

Is this a fixed setting for each board that strictly depends on how
the external pins are connected, or is it possible to use the same
hardware for different purposes based on the program?

If I read your code correctly, you hardwire the usage of the two
PRUs in the da850 board code, which makes it impossible to use
them in different ways even if the hardware supports it. If this is
indeed the case, using an MFD device might not be the best option
and we should try to come up with a way to dynamically repurpose
the PRU with some user interface.

My problem is, I am doing something like this:

s32 pruss_writel_multi(struct device *dev, u32 offset,
u32 *pdatatowrite, u16 wordstowrite)
{
struct pruss_priv *pruss = dev_get_drvdata(dev->parent);
u32 __iomem *paddresstowrite;
u16 i;

paddresstowrite = pruss->ioaddr + offset;

for (i = 0; i < wordstowrite; i++)
iowrite32(*pdatatowrite++, paddresstowrite++);

return 0;
}

So, if I make paddresstowrite as void, it will not work.
The above implementation does not generate any sparse errors though.

Incrementing a u32 pointer will result in increasing the address by 4
bytes. Incrementing a void pointer will result in increasing the address
by just one byte. (Pointer arithmetic on void * is a gnu extension but
IMHO a pretty nice one, though)

SG -- The PRU pins are exposed as is on the main board,
we have separate add on daughter cards
specific to the protocol implemented on it.

SG -- It depends upon how the firmware is implemented. If another
firmware is downloaded on it, it will emulate another device.
Also, if a firmware emulated on it supports switching between
devices,
that too is possible. Its just a microcontroller, we can do
whatever we feel like
with it. Both the PRUs have separate instruction/data ram, so
both can be used
to implement two different devices.

I see. So the problem that I see with the current code is that you
force the system to provide a set of devices from the MFD, which
then get passed to the individual drivers (uart and can) that load
the firmware they need. Please correct me if I am reading your code
wrong.

What I suggest you do instead is to have the request_firmware
call in the low-level MFD driver, so the user can provide the
firmware that he/she wants to use, and then the MFD driver will
create the devices that match the firmware loaded into the device.

You can easily do that by adding a small header to the firmware

I don't understand why loading the firmware should be done at the MFD
driver.
The user already specifies the device he/she wants to start on the PRU via
modprobe.
A driver can be inserted, which can download a printer firmware on one PRU
and a
scanner firmware on the other. This way both cores can be used for separate
purposes.
I mean, say in a real MFD controller, that will also have two separate cores
running on it,
just that, the firmware on it would not be downloaded runtime but fused in
some non volatile memory.

Yes, that why I can work with readb_multi even if I have void __iomen *.

But, how do I solve this problem. In the above function, I must use u32

Then I must be misreading what your code currently does, because it does not
match your explanations. What I see in the platform code is that you create
MFD cells for specific devices that get automatically created by the MFD
driver. This will cause udev to load the drivers for these devices, which
then load the firmware they need.

Also, I cannot see how the method you describe would make it possible to
the same driver into both units, e.g. when you want to have two serial
ports. The reason is that you currently hardcode the PRU number in the
driver and that you cannot load a single driver twice.

Finally, I'm trying to make sure that whatever solution you come up with
will still work when we migrate the code to using a flattened device tree.
In that case, you would ideally put the device firmware into the device
tree as a property that matches whatever you have connected on the specific
board (at least as an option, you can still fall back to request_firmware).
You definitely want automatic module loading in that case.

Note that using module loading with specific parameters in order to
match the hardware is not a recommended procedure any more. The code
really needs to work the same way when all drivers are built into the
kernel. It should not be hard to use the firmware loading mechanism
in the MFD driver to both load the firmware and configure the devices
appropriately so we always use the right driver for the currently
active devices.

BTW, something is wrong with your email client line wrapping. I've fixed
this up manually before when replying, but please find a way to get this

I believe you were talking about different things. The code you cited
above looks correct to me. For clarity, I would write the loop as

for (i = 0; i < wordstowrite; i++)
iowrite32(pdatatowrite[i], &paddresstowrite[i]);

but your version is just as correct, and I would not complain about it.

It is absolutely valid to pass either a 'void __iomem *' or a 'u32 __iomem *'
into iowrite32(). What is not valid is to cast between a 'void __iomem *'
and a plain 'u32' (no pointer). While that may work in most cases, there
are a lot of reasons why that is considered bad style and you should never
write code like that. I believe that is what Marc was referring to, but you
don't do it in your code.

The initial comments that Marc made were about the return value of the
accessor functions that always return success. Just make those return
void instead. Again, this is unrelated to the pointer types.

Hi Arnd,

How about just doing something like:

#> echo da8xx_pruss_uart >> firmware.bin

i.e just append the device name (from the board file) into the firmware
file.

In the driver probe, we can parse from the bottom, when it reaches
"da8xx_pruss", the rest of the upper data is the firmware and from
the full name, we can determine if it's a CAN, UART or any other
peripheral.

So, based on the platform_data, which the MFD driver received,
it can find out which device to initialize.

Also, does the line wrapping look any better ?

That sounds fine to me. I would put a header in the beginning, but feel free
to use whatever format you find useful there.

In my opinion, the MFD driver should not know the possible values
at all, or look at platform_data for the children, but take all
that information from the firmware file.

The only thing that the MFD driver needs to know is how many PRUs
there are and how they are connected to the host bus (memory
regions, irqs, clocks, ...). It can then load firmware files,
either one for the entire MFD or one per PRU core (whatever
works best for you) and create child devices with the information
it finds in there about what code to load into each PRU
and what drivers to load for them.

When you prepend the "da8xx_pruss_" string to the name you find
in the firmware file, the pruss driver can be sure that it does
not accidentally load a different module, e.g. when a malicious
user was able to exchange the firmware file.

If you are defining a firmware header, it may be
worthwhile making sure you include information
on features of the device being supported (I
assume there will be differences in CAN features if
the firmware uses both PRUs to support CAN versus
UART on one PRU and CAN on another PRU).

The MFD driver can parse this information and
pass this on to the UART or CAN drivers.

Subject: Re: [PATCH v4 01/11] mfd: add pruss mfd driver.

I am a bit lost,

If I understand correctly, there are two problems

1. In case of udev based driver loading, we will end up
loading both the drivers and the associated firmware.
This is not acceptable because both UART & CAN
use PRU0 & PRU1.

2. How do we switch between devices at run time.
This is required because MFD devices should be
capable of doing that.


Ok, if that understanding is somewhat correct, then, what we are
trying to do is load the firmware from the MFD driver itself.

So, in case of a switch between device, say from UART to CAN,
all the user has to do is copy a new firmware.

This firmware should contain some info regarding the device, like
say, device name & prunum.

So, in case a device requires both PRUs, then the firmware would
download for both PRUs.

In case a device requires only one PRU, then it can be downloaded
only into the requested PRU. So, the other PRU remains open for
any other firmware/device.

After loading the firmware, the MFD device should create the
platform devices based upon the firmware.

So, if only one PRU is used for UART, then the other PRU can be
used for CAN and the MFD should create two platform_devices.

If the UART uses both the PRUs, then the MFD should download
the firmware into both the PRUs but create only one platform_device.

But, in this case how do we download two different firmware
on two different PRUs. One way is to keep the firmware files
as its now, but add another file say firmware-config.txt,
consisting a list of parameters like,

START
MFD_ID0#0
MFD_ID0_PRU_NUM#PRU0
MFD_ID1#1
MFD_ID1_PRU_NUM#PRU1
END

OR

START
MFD_ID0#0
MFD_ID0_PRU_NUM#PRU0:PRU1
END

So, the MFD driver can do a request_firmware on this file first,
parse the device info and decide to request the main firmware.
This becomes something like the devices table that we have on
PPC.

Also, if PRU0 is loaded, we need some way of maintaining the
usage_count, So that the PRU0 is not loaded again accidently.
We can increase the usage_count from the MFD driver.
But, to decrement the usage_count, we can add an API
which will be called when the CAN or UART driver is rmmod.


Now how do we handle switch between devices.

We can either do a rmmod of the MFD driver, then again modprobe it.
So, the request_firmware is run again and the appropriate device is
loaded based upon the changed firmware-config.txt.

But, this does not look good, say what if the MFD driver is in-build.
Another way is that we can add a sysfs entry, which when written
with anything can re-evaluate the firmware_config.

What the hell, does anything make any sense ?

I would describe the problem differently:

You hardcode the usage of the pruss in the platform code,
even though it is completely defined by the software you
load into it. I think it is essential that all the configuration
of the pruss is dynamic and not hardcoded in the platform
code, so that it is at all possible to load other firmware
into it.

Describing the device in the firmware file instead of the platform
code is one way to get there, but there may be other ways that
you could come up with.

As I mentioned, I did not have a good idea for how to abstract
the fact that there may be either one or two child devices,
depending on the firmware. A possible way to deal with this
would be to have only a single firmware image files that contains
the code for both PRUs, with a header indicating how many devices
there should be and what they are called.

Yes, this would be another option. I generally don't like
parsing data in the kernel, but it's not completely unrealistic.

Not necesarily. You can make the interface so that the
child device gets registered after the firmware got loaded,
but unregistered if you start loading new firmware. We have
hotplug support for a lot of devices, and it's not hard to
write the serial/can/... drivers in a way that allows the
underlying device to go away.

You should not actually need to unload the device driver.
E.g. when the drivers are built into the kernel, you can still
remove the device and put it back in there using the
->probe and ->remove callbacks of the platform driver.

Yes, I think that a sysfs entry would be good here, basically
to reset the entire unit and remove the child devices, followed
by a new call to request_firmware.

Instead of passing a configuration file into the MFD driver and
calling it a firmware, I can see three other options that I believe
would be nicer:

1. have a single firmware blob that describes the child devices
and the code that is to be loaded into both units. If they are
acting as one device, either make sure you only create one
child node, or create one with a name that no driver binds to.

2. Call request_firmware separately for the two child devices,
and configure them separately based on the information in the
firmware files. In the case where they should act as a single
device, call the children e.g. "pruss-uart-a" and "pruss-uart-b",
then bind to both names in the pruss-uart drivers and only
start using the device when you have both nodes for the same
parent.

3. Do the configuration through sysfs files in the MFD device node,
which then cause the creation of the child devices. This means you
need extra user space scripts to write the addititonal files, but
is also the most flexible way.

Are you suggesting something like:

/sys..../pruss/pru0/id
/sys..../pruss/pru0/fw_name
/sys..../pruss/pru0/load

/sys..../pruss/pru1/id
/sys..../pruss/pru1/fw_name
/sys..../pruss/pru1/load

I can program these configs and store them in the pru private.
Then write something into load.
This can load the PRU based upon the configs.
But, I am not sure how to do this effectively using sysfs,
I mean I don't want to end up writing six write and six read
handlers.

No, that is none of the three I suggested.

Please look into implementing one of the three I suggested before
you go off in another direction. In case of the third one, the idea
was to configure the name of the device for each pru using sysfs,
which then gets bound to the driver, which loads its own firmware
as you do today. Only in the first two suggestions, the mfd driver
would be responsible for loading the firmware.

Ok, thanks for the clarification.
Instead of passing the device name, will it be ok to pass the mfd_id.
The benefit will be that I can use the ID directly as an array
index for the mfd_cell entries.

Just to verify my understanding, all that's needs to be done is add
a sysfs entry at
/sys/devices/platform/pruss_mfd/mfd_id

Writing to this entry would create the respective device.
Rewriting would unload the old (mfd_remove_device)
and reload the new device.
Reading may return the various devices and their name
aliases.

I think a device name would be clearer here, especially in order
to avoid conflicts when the list gets extended in different ways
depending on which kernel runs.

We had a little discussion at the Linaro Developer Summit about your
driver and mfd drivers in general. There was a general feeling among
some people (including me) that by the point you dynamically create
the subdevices, MFD is probably not the right abstraction any more,
as it does not provide any service that you need.

Instead, maybe you can simply call platform_device_register
at that stage to create the children and not use MFD at all.

Samuel, can you comment on this as well? Do you still see pruss
as an MFD driver when the uses are completely dynamic and determined
by the firmware loaded into it?

Yes

I would just return the current value. You might want to have two
files in sysfs, one per PRU, so you can set them individually.

Hi Arnd,

But in that case, where do I fit my driver.
It's a microcontroller inside of a processor, guess that's unique for Linux.
Will a misc device be a better choice.

In that case I can remove the MFD cell from the board_file and add an array
of platform_device for the UART & CAN.

Regarding device register, I will have to implement something similar to
mfd_add_devices and mark the dev->parent.

Did I miss something or will that be fine.

It's not that unusual in hardware terms, really. There's an awful lot
of this going on in the audio area especially at the minute so there's
going to be some effort around providing some framework support for this
which should have some general usability but that's not there yet.

I think that for me so long as it can simultaneously do two unrelated
functions which need to be arbitrated between there's probably a place
for it in MFD, certainly at the minute.

I guess drivers/mfd would be a better place than drivers/misc, but it might not
need to be an mfd driver in the sense that it registers mfd cells.

The more important point is to remove the device registration from the board
file. You definitely should not have the cells in the board file, but replacing
them with platform devices in the board file makes it no better.

My whole point has been that you register them from the main pruss driver
based on run-time data instead of compile-time pre-configured stuff in the
board file.

Yes, it might be more sensible to just open code. OTOH mfd_cell is
marginally easier to use.

Agreed entirely, it should be something higher level than that.

I'm not so sure - if the usage is fixed as a result of the pins on the
device being wired a CAN bus then it seems reasonable to tell the system
about that so it'll stop the user trying to run SPI or something against
it at runtime.

I'm mostly worried about the case where the pins are not hardwired for
some specific function -- Subhasish was mentioning that these may be
implemented using a pluggable extension board and I want to make sure
that you are not required to recompile the kernel when changing the
extension board.

However, you made a good point that in many cases it will be hardwired
so it may be valuable to preconfigure this in a way that does not require
scripts to set up variables in sysfs when you already know what is there.

Note that my suggestion to put the device name into the firmware file
covers this case, because you can then simply ship a firmware blob that
matches the hardware configuration. Thinking about the future device
tree setup, you can even put the firmware blob itself into a property
in the device tree file.

I earlier had an implementation where I used a pruss_devices structure
in the board file.

http://linux.omap.com/pipermail/davinci-linux-open-source/
2011-March/022339.html.

We can use this implementation along with the sysfs to load the devices
runtime. The configs that I have in the board_file for the devices
structure,
are fixed for a board. To swap the boards, we do not need to re-compile
the kernel.

I agree it's not what it's been designed for.

The MFD APIs are slightly easier to use though, imho.

Even though that is definitely not a typical MFD use case, I wouldn't object
strongly against it. Right now mfd is probably the least worst choice for this
kind of drivers, which still doesn't make it an ideal situation.

I agree with that. Although if it makes it to drivers/mfd/, I'd prefer to see
it using the MF API.

Thanks for your input! When you say that MFD APIs are easier to use than
platform_device APIs, is that something we should fix with platform devices
to make them easier to use?

Possibly, but the actual data structures might end up differently
when they are built around a sysfs interface. If you have a sysfs
interface, it is more important to have that in a clean way than
the board file, so we should first discuss the set of sysfs
attributes that you are going to need, and then see how to
represent that in platform data for predefined boards.

The other point to consider is that we are definitely moving
towards the flattened device tree for these definitions now.
It's probably good to make the sysfs attributes directly correspond
to fdt device properties. I'm not sure if we also need to allow platform
data. The easiest way could be to just require the use of device tree
for predefined pruss devices.

I'm sorry that this is moving in a different direction now, you
had an unfortunate timing here.

Let's first discuss the exact properties that are really required
to define the differences between PRU backends, as those will
be required in any case. What do you need for PRU specific
data besides the firmware and the name of the device?

Would it be a good approach to first get a basic sensible
driver into the tree and then work towards improving and
adjusting for future compatibilities.
That way we can gradually build towards the perfect driver

That would be some source of motivation for me too.

The main problem with that is that you cannot really change
user-visible interfaces after the driver is merged. Anything
regarding sysfs attributes and firmware file contents needs
to be fixed. You can however still change in-kernel interfaces
at a later point without problems.

You can definitely add the driver to drivers/staging/pruss/,
as the rules for staging drivers are different. I think that
would indeed be helpful at this point. As soon as all
interfaces have stabilized, you can then move the individual
parts to their final location.

Greg maintains the staging drivers, and he can surely point
you to a document describing what is required for a driver.
Mainly, this includes having a patch that adds a single
directory with all the driver files under drivers/staging.
The driver must be able to compile without errors and you need
a TODO file listing the remaining issues that prevent you
from having a non-staging driver.

I think the list will be relatively short, given that you
have made a lot of progress and the driver is now essentially
ready, aside from a few details and the big question of
how the firmware should be configured and loaded.

There really are only 3 rules:
- proper license
- self-contained in a drivers/staging/DRIVER_NAME/ directory
- must properly build

Ah, forgot the TODO on the list of rules, I'll have to add that next
time.

Someone feel free to send me a patch :)

How do I handle the headers. I have two header files in the
include/linux/mfd.

Should I submit them as a separate patch into mfd.

These headers are also used by pruss uart implementation.

Why would they be in there for a single driver?

Then put them in the staging directory for your driver, why would
anything outside of your driver need a .h file?

During the time when the drivers are in staging, all files need to
be in the same directory, including the header and the drivers using it.
They can get moved at the time when the driver gets turned into
a regular non-staging driver.

OK, so the UART implementation needs to be moved into staging as well ?

And what about the boardfile changes, array of mfd_cells implementation etc.

There are two header files in the include/linux/mfd/pruss.h & pruss_core.h

the file pruss.h is included by the pruss_suart_api.c (tty uart driver) for
some data structures, defines and function prototypes.

All of that, too.

Note that you are citing exactly the points that are the reason for the
discussion we are having. The mfd_cells are the main concern for the cases
where the information is not static.

Yes, but by destroying the structure that I have currently in the platform
files,
I will be basically going backwards.

If only the platform_data is what is going to change with some additions
of sysfs attributes, then will it be correct to have the platform data
as an empty pointer and keep the rest as is ?

That way, I can keep the platform changes untouched and move just
the drivers into staging.

I cannot destroy the complete platform code as there are other drivers
(PRUSS UIO) depending on them.
