Subject: [PATCH V2 0/2] mailbox: imx: support RST channel

From: Peng Fan <[email protected]>

V2:
Add R-b tag
Missed to add mailbox maintainer in V1, add in V2

To i.MX generic MU, when linux stop remote core, the MU-B side is not
reset because of hardware design, so MU-B contains valid configuration
when remote core stops. Then when linux start remote core again, linux
may notify remote core before remote core is ready for incoming message.
So we need make sure MU is in reset state before remote core start. So
add a RST channel which is only to reset MU when shutdown the RST mbox
channel.

From: Peng Fan <[email protected]>

i.MX generic MU supports MU-A/B reset feature.

When stop/start remotecore, MU is not reset. So when Linux stop
remotecore, the MU-B side BCR may contain valid configuration,
because MU-B is not reset. So when linux start Mcore
again and notify Mcore, Mcore is not ready to handle MU interrupt
and cause issues. So need reset MU when stop Mcore.

Subject: [PATCH V2 1/2] dt-bindings: mailbox: imx-mu: add RST channel

From: Peng Fan <[email protected]>

i.MX MU has a MUR bit which is to reset both the Processor B and the
Processor A sides of the MU module, forcing all control and status
registers to return to their default values (except the BHR bit in the ACR
register and BHRM bit in BCR register), and all internal states to be
cleared.

It looks like this patch causes i.MX8qxp MEK boot failure with v6.0-
rc1. After reverting commit 82ab513baed5895c8b0e991557a12fd38d5f25f0,
it boots ok.

There are a lot imx_mu and imx-scu error logs:

Thanks for your test. Indeed, I only take generic MU into consideration and broke
i.MX8QXP SCU MU. The following patch could resolve the issue, after more
test, I will send a formal patch:
