From 034dd340b08be1f2f0477ad16131d609f9dbd53c Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Linus Torvalds Date: Sun, 30 Aug 2026 09:22:00 -0700 Subject: Merge tag 'trace-v7.3-2' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/trace/linux-trace Pull tracing fixes from Steven Rostedt: - Fix error output of boot instance creation failure Currently if a boot instance creation fails, instead of printing out the name of the instance that failed, it prints "(null)". That is because it prints "cur_str" that had already been processed by strsep(). Print the saved name instead. While at it, print the error code of the failure. - Fix use-after-free for same named historgrams Histograms can be named so that they can be used in multiple events. But if the named histogram has a variable attached, the second event that uses the named histogram which duplicates it and needs to free the original after duplication leaves the old variable in place and still visible. If another histogram uses than variable, it will use the stale one which will try to reference the freed duplicate histogram and crash the kernel. Free the duplicate variables along with the duplicated histogram data. - Check return value of kthread_run() in event self test The events self tests uses a kthread for testing but does not check if it succeeded in creating a kthread. If the kthread creation were to fail, the code will still try to call kthread_stop() on the error returned. - Fix race between reading trace_pipe and updating subbuffer size If a user is reading the trace_pipe file at the same time they update the ring buffer sub-buffer size, can cause the trace_pipe read to read stale data. Add trace_access_lock() around updating the ring buffer sub-buffer size. - Fix eventfs_inode on failure path in creation of the events directory In the creation of the "events" directory, if after allocating the eventfs_inode a failure is detected, it calls cleanup_ei() which calls free_ei(). The free_ei() will test if eventfs_inode being freed has no children. It is a bug if it does. But on the failure case of the creation of the "events" directory, the children lists have not yet been initialized and the free will trigger a warning because list_empty() on an uninitialized list returns false. Move the initialization into init_ei() where it makes more sense and makes sure that a created eventfs_inode has its lists initialized upon creation. - Check return value of kthread_run() in ftrace direct sample code The sample code that shows how to use the ftrace direct calls does not test the return of kthread_run() to see if it succeeds. Return a failure if the kthread_run() doesn't succeed. - Clear user events state on fork in case of alloc failure On fork, the child gets a pointer to the parent's user events state. It makes a copy of it then updates the child's pointer to it. But if the allocation fails, the duplication function leaves the child with a pointer to its parent's descriptor. When the child cleans up its data, it will free the parent's descriptor while the parent is still using it. In the duplication function, set the child's user_event_mm to NULL before testing if the allocation succeeded, and when it exits it will not free the parent's descriptor. - Fix retry exhaustion in simple ring buffer reader swap simple_ring_buffer_swap_reader_page() starts with retry set to 8 and post-decrements it only after a failed link replacement. On the final attempt, a successful replacement leaves retry at zero, while a failed replacement leaves it at -1. But the check for success expects the retry value to be non-zero and exits with an error on zero. This is the opposite result. Fix it. - Fail nicely when the remote swap_reader_page() returns an error Currently, if the swap_reader_page() of a remote buffer fails, it triggers a WARN_ON_ONCE() and continues normally. Instead, have it exit with an error and a pr_warn() print instead of a full WARNING. * tag 'trace-v7.3-2' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/trace/linux-trace: ring-buffer: Stop remote

+Compilation of kernel +--------------------- + + In order to compile ARM Linux, you will need a compiler capable of + generating ARM ELF code with GNU extensions. GCC 3.3 is known to be + a good compiler. Fortunately, you needn't guess. The kernel will report + an error if your compiler is a recognized offender. + + To build ARM Linux natively, you shouldn't have to alter the ARCH = line + in the top level Makefile.

A compressed image can be built by doing a + 'make zImage' instead of 'make Image'. + + +Bug reports etc +--------------- + + Please send patches to the patch system. For more information, see + http://www.arm.linux.org.uk/developer/patches/info.php Always include some + explanation as to what the patch does and why it is needed. + + Bug reports should be sent to linux-arm-kernel@lists.arm.linux.org.uk, + or submitted through the web form at + http://www.arm.linux.org.uk/developer/ + + When sending bug reports, please ensure that they contain all relevant + information, eg. the kernel messages that were printed before/during + the problem, what you were doing, etc. + + +Include files +------------- + + Several new include directories have been created under include/asm-arm, + which are there to reduce the clutter in the top-level directory. These + directories, and their purpose is listed below: + + ============= ========================================================== + `arch-*` machine/platform specific header files + `hardware` driver-internal ARM specific data structures/definitions + `mach` descriptions of generic ARM to specific machine interfaces + `proc-*` processor dependent header files (currently only two + categories) + ============= ========================================================== + + +Machine/Platform support +------------------------ + + The ARM tree contains support for a lot of different machine types. To + continue supporting these differences, it has become necessary to split + machine-specific parts by directory. For this, the machine category is + used to select which directories and files get included (we will use + $(MACHINE) to refer to the category) + + To this end, we now have arch/arm/mach-$(MACHINE) directories which are + designed to house the non-driver files for a particular machine (eg, PCI, + memory management, architecture definitions etc). For all future + machines, there should be a corresponding arch/arm/mach-$(MACHINE)/include/mach + directory. + + +Modules +------- + + Although modularisation is supported (and required for the FP emulator), + each module on an ARM2/ARM250/ARM3 machine when is loaded will take + memory up to the next 32k boundary due to the size of the pages. + Therefore, is modularisation on these machines really worth it? + + However, ARM6 and up machines allow modules to take multiples of 4k, and + as such Acorn RiscPCs and other architectures using these processors can + make good use of modularisation. + + +ADFS Image files +---------------- + + You can access image files on your ADFS partitions by mounting the ADFS + partition, and then using the loopback device driver. You must have + losetup installed. + + Please note that the PCEmulator DOS partitions have a partition table at + the start, and as such, you will have to give '-o offset' to losetup. + + +Request to developers +--------------------- + + When writing device drivers which include a separate assembler file, please + include it in with the C file, and not the arch/arm/lib directory. This + allows the driver to be compiled as a loadable module without requiring + half the code to be compiled into the kernel image. + + In general, try to avoid using assembler unless it is really necessary. It + makes drivers far less easy to port to other hardware. + + +ST506 hard drives +----------------- + + The ST506 hard drive controllers seem to be working fine (if a little + slowly). At the moment they will only work off the controllers on an + A4x0's motherboard, but for it to work off a Podule just requires + someone with a podule to add the addresses for the IRQ mask and the + HDC base to the source. + + As of 31/3/96 it works with two drives (you should get the ADFS + `*configure` harddrive set to 2). I've got an internal 20MB and a great + big external 5.25" FH 64MB drive (who could ever want more :-) ). + + I've just got 240K/s off it (a dd with bs=128k); that's about half of what + RiscOS gets; but it's a heck of a lot better than the 50K/s I was getting + last week :-) + + Known bug: Drive data errors can cause a hang; including cases where + the controller has fixed the error using ECC. (Possibly ONLY + in that case...hmm). + + +1772 Floppy +----------- + This also seems to work OK, but hasn't been stressed much lately. It + hasn't got any code for disc change detection in there at the moment which + could be a bit of a problem! Suggestions on the correct way to do this + are welcome. + + +`CONFIG_MACH_` and `CONFIG_ARCH_` +--------------------------------- + A change was made in 2003 to the macro names for new machines. + Historically, `CONFIG_ARCH_` was used for the bonafide architecture, + e.g. SA1100, as well as implementations of the architecture, + e.g. Assabet. It was decided to change the implementation macros + to read `CONFIG_MACH_` for clarity. Moreover, a retroactive fixup has + not been made because it would complicate patching. + + Previous registrations may be found online. + + + +Kernel entry (head.S) +--------------------- + The initial entry into the kernel is via head.S, which uses machine + independent code. The machine is selected by the value of 'r1' on + entry, which must be kept unique. + + Due to the large number of machines which the ARM port of Linux provides + for, we have a method to manage this which ensures that we don't end up + duplicating large amounts of code. + + We group machine (or platform) support code into machine classes. A + class typically based around one or more system on a chip devices, and + acts as a natural container around the actual implementations. These + classes are given directories - arch/arm/mach- - which contain + the source files and include/mach/ to support the machine class. + + For example, the SA1100 class is based upon the SA1100 and SA1110 SoC + devices, and contains the code to support the way the on-board and off- + board devices are used, or the device is setup, and provides that + machine specific "personality." + + For platforms that support device tree (DT), the machine selection is + controlled at runtime by passing the device tree blob to the kernel. At + compile-time, support for the machine type must be selected. This allows for + a single multiplatform kernel build to be used for several machine types. + + For platforms that do not use device tree, this machine selection is + controlled by the machine type ID, which acts both as a run-time and a + compile-time code selection method. You can register a new machine via the + web site at: + + + + Note: Please do not register a machine type for DT-only platforms.

The boot loader is expected +to initialise various devices, and eventually call the Linux kernel, +passing information to the kernel. + +Essentially, the boot loader should provide (as a minimum) the +following: + +1. Setup and initialise the RAM. +2. Initialise one serial port. +3. Detect the machine type. +4. Setup the kernel tagged list. +5. Load initramfs. +6. Call the kernel image. + + +1. Setup and initialise RAM +--------------------------- + +Existing boot loaders: + MANDATORY +New boot loaders: + MANDATORY + +The boot loader is expected to find and initialise all RAM that the +kernel will use for volatile data storage in the system. It performs +this in a machine dependent manner. (It may use internal algorithms +to automatically locate and size all RAM, or it may use knowledge of +the RAM in the machine, or any other method the boot loader designer +sees fit.) + + +2. Initialise one serial port +----------------------------- + +Existing boot loaders: + OPTIONAL, RECOMMENDED +New boot loaders: + OPTIONAL, RECOMMENDED + +The boot loader should initialise and enable one serial port on the +target. This allows the kernel serial driver to automatically detect +which serial port it should use for the kernel console (generally +used for debugging purposes, or communication with the target.) + +As an alternative, the boot loader can pass the relevant 'console=' +option to the kernel via the tagged lists specifying the port, and +serial format options as described in + + Documentation/admin-guide/kernel-parameters.rst. + + +3. Detect the machine type +-------------------------- + +Existing boot loaders: + OPTIONAL +New boot loaders: + MANDATORY except for DT-only platforms + +The boot loader should detect the machine type its running on by some +method. Whether this is a hard coded value or some algorithm that +looks at the connected hardware is beyond the scope of this document. +The boot loader must ultimately be able to provide a MACH_TYPE_xxx +value to the kernel. (see linux/arch/arm/tools/mach-types). This +should be passed to the kernel in register r1. + +For DT-only platforms, the machine type will be determined by device +tree. set the machine type to all ones (~0). This is not strictly +necessary, but assures that it will not match any existing types. + +4. Setup boot data +------------------ + +Existing boot loaders: + OPTIONAL, HIGHLY RECOMMENDED +New boot loaders: + MANDATORY + +The boot loader must provide either a tagged list or a dtb image for +passing configuration data to the kernel. The physical address of the +boot data is passed to the kernel in register r2. + +4a. Setup the kernel tagged list +-------------------------------- + +The boot loader must create and initialise the kernel tagged list. +A valid tagged list starts with ATAG_CORE and ends with ATAG_NONE. +The ATAG_CORE tag may or may not be empty. An empty ATAG_CORE tag +has the size field set to '2' (0x00000002). The ATAG_NONE must set +the size field to zero. + +Any number of tags can be placed in the list. It is undefined +whether a repeated tag appends to the information carried by the +previous tag, or whether it replaces the information in its +entirety; some tags behave as the former, others the latter. + +The boot loader must pass at a minimum the size and location of +the system memory, and root filesystem location. Therefore, the +minimum tagged list should look:: + + +-----------+ + base -> | ATAG_CORE | | + +-----------+ | + | ATAG_MEM | | increasing address + +-----------+ | + | ATAG_NONE | | + +-----------+ v + +The tagged list should be stored in system RAM. + +The tagged list must be placed in a region of memory where neither +the kernel decompressor nor initrd 'bootp' program will overwrite +it. The recommended placement is in the first 16KiB of RAM. + +4b. Setup the device tree +------------------------- + +The boot loader must load a device tree image (dtb) into system ram +at a 64bit aligned address and initialize it with the boot data. The +dtb format is documented at https://www.devicetree.org/specifications/. +The kernel will look for the dtb magic value of 0xd00dfeed at the dtb +physical address to determine if a dtb has been passed instead of a +tagged list. + +The boot loader must pass at a minimum the size and location of the +system memory, and the root filesystem location. The dtb must be +placed in a region of memory where the kernel decompressor will not +overwrite it, while remaining within the region which will be covered +by the kernel's low-memory mapping. + +A safe location is just above the 128MiB boundary from start of RAM. + +5. Load initramfs. +------------------ + +Existing boot loaders: + OPTIONAL +New boot loaders: + OPTIONAL + +If an initramfs is in use then, as with the dtb, it must be placed in +a region of memory where the kernel decompressor will not overwrite it +while also with the region which will be covered by the kernel's +low-memory mapping. + +A safe location is just above the device tree blob which itself will +be loaded just above the 128MiB boundary from the start of RAM as +recommended above. + +6. Calling the kernel image +--------------------------- + +Existing boot loaders: + MANDATORY +New boot loaders: + MANDATORY + +There are two options for calling the kernel zImage. If the zImage +is stored in flash, and is linked correctly to be run from flash, +then it is legal for the boot loader to call the zImage in flash +directly. + +The zImage may also be placed in system RAM and called there. The +kernel should be placed in the first 128MiB of RAM. It is recommended +that it is loaded above 32MiB in order to avoid the need to relocate +prior to decompression, which will make the boot process slightly +faster. + +When booting a raw (non-zImage) kernel the constraints are tighter. +In this case the kernel must be loaded at an offset into system equal +to TEXT_OFFSET - PAGE_OFFSET. + +In any case, the following conditions must be met: + +- Quiesce all DMA capable devices so that memory does not get + corrupted by bogus network packets or disk data. This will save + you many hours of debug. + +- CPU register settings + + - r0 = 0, + - r1 = machine type number discovered in (3) above. + - r2 = physical address of tagged list in system RAM, or + physical address of device tree block (dtb) in system RAM + +- CPU mode + + All forms of interrupts must be disabled (IRQs and FIQs) + + For CPUs which do not include the ARM virtualization extensions, the + CPU must be in SVC mode. (A special exception exists for Angel) + + CPUs which include support for the virtualization extensions can be + entered in HYP mode in order to enable the kernel to make full use of + these extensions.

"Basic model" explains general concepts using a simplified view +of the system. The other sections explain the actual details of the +algorithm in use. + + +Rationale +--------- + +In a system containing multiple CPUs, it is desirable to have the +ability to turn off individual CPUs when the system is idle, reducing +power consumption and thermal dissipation. + +In a system containing multiple clusters of CPUs, it is also desirable +to have the ability to turn off entire clusters. + +Turning entire clusters off and on is a risky business, because it +involves performing potentially destructive operations affecting a group +of independently running CPUs, while the OS continues to run. This +means that we need some coordination in order to ensure that critical +cluster-level operations are only performed when it is truly safe to do +so. + +Simple locking may not be sufficient to solve this problem, because +mechanisms like Linux spinlocks may rely on coherency mechanisms which +are not immediately enabled when a cluster powers up. Since enabling or +disabling those mechanisms may itself be a non-atomic operation (such as +writing some hardware registers and invalidating large caches), other +methods of coordination are required in order to guarantee safe +power-down and power-up at the cluster level. + +The mechanism presented in this document describes a coherent memory +based protocol for performing the needed coordination. It aims to be as +lightweight as possible, while providing the required safety properties. + + +Basic model +----------- + +Each cluster and CPU is assigned a state, as follows: + + - DOWN + - COMING_UP + - UP + - GOING_DOWN + +:: + + +---------> UP ----------+ + | v + + COMING_UP GOING_DOWN + + ^ | + +--------- DOWN <--------+ + + +DOWN: + The CPU or cluster is not coherent, and is either powered off or + suspended, or is ready to be powered off or suspended. + +COMING_UP: + The CPU or cluster has committed to moving to the UP state. + It may be part way through the process of initialisation and + enabling coherency. + +UP: + The CPU or cluster is active and coherent at the hardware + level. A CPU in this state is not necessarily being used + actively by the kernel. + +GOING_DOWN: + The CPU or cluster has committed to moving to the DOWN + state. It may be part way through the process of teardown and + coherency exit. + + +Each CPU has one of these states assigned to it at any point in time. +The CPU states are described in the "CPU state" section, below. + +Each cluster is also assigned a state, but it is necessary to split the +state value into two parts (the "cluster" state and "inbound" state) and +to introduce additional states in order to avoid races between different +CPUs in the cluster simultaneously modifying the state. The cluster- +level states are described in the "Cluster state" section. + +To help distinguish the CPU states from cluster states in this +discussion, the state names are given a `CPU_` prefix for the CPU states, +and a `CLUSTER_` or `INBOUND_` prefix for the cluster states. + + +CPU state +--------- + +In this algorithm, each individual core in a multi-core processor is +referred to as a "CPU".

Therefore, ordinary spinlocks can +be used to select a last man safely, before the CPUs become +non-coherent. + + +First man: + +Because CPUs may power up asynchronously in response to external wake-up +events, a dynamic mechanism is needed to make sure that only one CPU +attempts to play the first man role and do the cluster-level +initialisation: any other CPUs must wait for this to complete before +proceeding. + +Cluster-level initialisation may involve actions such as configuring +coherency controls in the bus fabric. + +The current implementation in mcpm_head.S uses a separate mutual exclusion +mechanism to do this arbitration. This mechanism is documented in +detail in vlocks.txt. + + +Features and Limitations +------------------------ + +Implementation: + + The current ARM-based implementation is split between + arch/arm/common/mcpm_head.S (low-level inbound CPU operations) and + arch/arm/common/mcpm_entry.c (everything else): + + __mcpm_cpu_going_down() signals the transition of a CPU to the + CPU_GOING_DOWN state. + + __mcpm_cpu_down() signals the transition of a CPU to the CPU_DOWN + state. + + A CPU transitions to CPU_COMING_UP and then to CPU_UP via the + low-level power-up code in mcpm_head.S. This could + involve CPU-specific setup code, but in the current + implementation it does not. + + __mcpm_outbound_enter_critical() and __mcpm_outbound_leave_critical() + handle transitions from CLUSTER_UP to CLUSTER_GOING_DOWN + and from there to CLUSTER_DOWN or back to CLUSTER_UP (in + the case of an aborted cluster power-down). + + These functions are more complex than the __mcpm_cpu_*() + functions due to the extra inter-CPU coordination which + is needed for safe transitions at the cluster level. + + A cluster transitions from CLUSTER_DOWN back to CLUSTER_UP via + the low-level power-up code in mcpm_head.S. This + typically involves platform-specific setup code, + provided by the platform-specific power_up_setup + function registered via mcpm_sync_init. + +Deep topologies: + + As currently described and implemented, the algorithm does not + support CPU topologies involving more than two levels (i.e., + clusters of clusters are not supported).

Each MMU TLB variant is now handled completely separately - +we have TLB v3, TLB v4 (without write buffer), TLB v4 (with write buffer), +and finally TLB v4 (with write buffer, with I TLB invalidate entry). +There is more assembly code inside each of these functions, mainly to +allow more flexible TLB handling for the future. + +Secondly, the IRQ subsystem. + +The 2.5 kernels will be having major changes to the way IRQs are handled. +Unfortunately, this means that machine types that touch the irq_desc[] +array (basically all machine types) will break, and this means every +machine type that we currently have. + +Lets take an example. On the Assabet with Neponset, we have:: + + GPIO25 IRR:2 + SA1100 ------------> Neponset -----------> SA1111 + IIR:1 + -----------> USAR + IIR:0 + -----------> SMC9196 + +The way stuff currently works, all SA1111 interrupts are mutually +exclusive of each other - if you're processing one interrupt from the +SA1111 and another comes in, you have to wait for that interrupt to +finish processing before you can service the new interrupt. Eg, an +IDE PIO-based interrupt on the SA1111 excludes all other SA1111 and +SMC9196 interrupts until it has finished transferring its multi-sector +data, which can be a long time. Note also that since we loop in the +SA1111 IRQ handler, SA1111 IRQs can hold off SMC9196 IRQs indefinitely. + + +The new approach brings several new ideas... + +We introduce the concept of a "parent" and a "child". For example, +to the Neponset handler, the "parent" is GPIO25, and the "children"d +are SA1111, SMC9196 and USAR. + +We also bring the idea of an IRQ "chip" (mainly to reduce the size of +the irqdesc array). This doesn't have to be a real "IC"; indeed the +SA11x0 IRQs are handled by two separate "chip" structures, one for +GPIO0-10, and another for all the rest. It is just a container for +the various operations (maybe this'll change to a better name). +This structure has the following operations:: + + struct irqchip { + /* + * Acknowledge the IRQ. + * If this is a level-based IRQ, then it is expected to mask the IRQ + * as well. + */ + void (*ack)(unsigned int irq); + /* + * Mask the IRQ in hardware. + */ + void (*mask)(unsigned int irq); + /* + * Unmask the IRQ in hardware. + */ + void (*unmask)(unsigned int irq); + /* + * Re-run the IRQ + */ + void (*rerun)(unsigned int irq); + /* + * Set the type of the IRQ. + */ + int (*type)(unsigned int irq, unsigned int, type); + }; + +ack + - required. May be the same function as mask for IRQs + handled by do_level_IRQ. +mask + - required. +unmask + - required. +rerun + - optional. Not required if you're using do_level_IRQ for all + IRQs that use this 'irqchip'. Generally expected to re-trigger + the hardware IRQ if possible. If not, may call the handler + directly. +type + - optional. If you don't support changing the type of an IRQ, + it should be null so people can detect if they are unable to + set the IRQ type. + +For each IRQ, we keep the following information: + + - "disable" depth (number of disable_irq()s without enable_irq()s) + - flags indicating what we can do with this IRQ (valid, probe, + noautounmask) as before + - status of the IRQ (probing, enable, etc) + - chip + - per-IRQ handler + - irqaction structure list + +The handler can be one of the 3 standard handlers - "level", "edge" and +"simple", or your own specific handler if you need to do something special. + +The "level" handler is what we currently have - its pretty simple. +"edge" knows about the brokenness of such IRQ implementations - that you +need to leave the hardware IRQ enabled while processing it, and queueing +further IRQ events should the IRQ happen again while processing. The +"simple" handler is very basic, and does not perform any hardware +manipulation, nor state tracking. This is useful for things like the +SMC9196 and USAR above. + +So, what's changed? +=================== + +1. Machine implementations must not write to the irqdesc array. + +2. New functions to manipulate the irqdesc array. The first 4 are expected + to be useful only to machine specific code. The last is recommended to + only be used by machine specific code, but may be used in drivers if + absolutely necessary. + + set_irq_chip(irq,chip) + Set the mask/unmask methods for handling this IRQ + + set_irq_handler(irq,handler) + Set the handler for this IRQ (level, edge, simple) + + set_irq_chained_handler(irq,handler) + Set a "chained" handler for this IRQ - automatically + enables this IRQ (eg, Neponset and SA1111 handlers). + + set_irq_flags(irq,flags) + Set the valid/probe/noautoenable flags. + + set_irq_type(irq,type) + Set active the IRQ edge(s)/level. This replaces the + SA1111 INTPOL manipulation, and the set_GPIO_IRQ_edge() + function. Type should be one of IRQ_TYPE_xxx defined in + + +3. set_GPIO_IRQ_edge() is obsolete, and should be replaced by set_irq_type. + +4. Direct access to SA1111 INTPOL is deprecated.

Overview + +Intel's IXP4xx network processor is a highly integrated SOC that +is targeted for network applications, though it has become popular +in industrial control and other areas due to low cost and power +consumption. The IXP4xx family currently consists of several processors +that support different network offload functions such as encryption, +routing, firewalling, etc. The IXP46x family is an updated version which +supports faster speeds, new memory and flash configurations, and more +integration such as an on-chip I2C controller. + +For more information on the various versions of the CPU, see: + + http://developer.intel.com/design/network/products/npfamily/ixp4xx.htm + +Intel also made the IXCP1100 CPU for sometime which is an IXP4xx +stripped of much of the network intelligence. + +2.

Known Issues/Limitations + +3a. Limited inbound PCI window + +The IXP4xx family allows for up to 256MB of memory but the PCI interface +can only expose 64MB of that memory to the PCI bus. This means that if +you are running with > 64MB, all PCI buffers outside of the accessible +range will be bounced using the routines in arch/arm/common/dmabounce.c. + +3b. Limited outbound PCI window + +IXP4xx provides two methods of accessing PCI memory space: + +1) A direct mapped window from 0x48000000 to 0x4bffffff (64MB). + To access PCI via this space, we simply ioremap() the BAR + into the kernel and we can use the standard read[bwl]/write[bwl] + macros. This is the preferred method due to speed but it + limits the system to just 64MB of PCI memory. This can be + problematic if using video cards and other memory-heavy devices. + +2) If > 64MB of memory space is required, the IXP4xx can be + configured to use indirect registers to access PCI This allows + for up to 128MB (0x48000000 to 0x4fffffff) of memory on the bus. + The disadvantage of this is that every PCI access requires + three local register accesses plus a spinlock, but in some + cases the performance hit is acceptable. In addition, you cannot + mmap() PCI devices in this case due to the indirect nature + of the PCI window. + +By default, the direct method is used for performance reasons. If +you need more PCI memory, enable the IXP4XX_INDIRECT_PCI config option. + +3c. GPIO as Interrupts + +Currently the code only handles level-sensitive GPIO interrupts + +4.

However, for performance reasons, the NEON/VFP +register file is not preserved and restored at every context switch or taken +exception like the normal register file is, so some manual intervention is +required. Furthermore, special care is required for code that may sleep [i.e., +may call schedule()], as NEON or VFP instructions will be executed in a +non-preemptible section for reasons outlined below. + + +Lazy preserve and restore +------------------------- +The NEON/VFP register file is managed using lazy preserve (on UP systems) and +lazy restore (on both SMP and UP systems). This means that the register file is +kept 'live', and is only preserved and restored when multiple tasks are +contending for the NEON/VFP unit (or, in the SMP case, when a task migrates to +another core). Lazy restore is implemented by disabling the NEON/VFP unit after +every context switch, resulting in a trap when subsequently a NEON/VFP +instruction is issued, allowing the kernel to step in and perform the restore if +necessary. + +Any use of the NEON/VFP unit in kernel mode should not interfere with this, so +it is required to do an 'eager' preserve of the NEON/VFP register file, and +enable the NEON/VFP unit explicitly so no exceptions are generated on first +subsequent use. This is handled by the function kernel_neon_begin(), which +should be called before any kernel mode NEON or VFP instructions are issued. +Likewise, the NEON/VFP unit should be disabled again after use to make sure user +mode will hit the lazy restore trap upon next use. This is handled by the +function kernel_neon_end(). + + +Interruptions in kernel mode +---------------------------- +For reasons of performance and simplicity, it was decided that there shall be no +preserve/restore mechanism for the kernel mode NEON/VFP register contents. This +implies that interruptions of a kernel mode NEON section can only be allowed if +they are guaranteed not to touch the NEON/VFP registers. For this reason, the +following rules and restrictions apply in the kernel: +* NEON/VFP code is not allowed in interrupt context; +* NEON/VFP code is not allowed to sleep; +* NEON/VFP code is executed with preemption disabled. + +If latency is a concern, it is possible to put back to back calls to +kernel_neon_end() and kernel_neon_begin() in places in your code where none of +the NEON registers are live. (Additional calls to kernel_neon_begin() should be +reasonably cheap if no context switch occurred in the meantime) + + +VFP and support code +-------------------- +Earlier versions of VFP (prior to version 3) rely on software support for things +like IEEE-754 compliant underflow handling etc. When the VFP unit needs such +software assistance, it signals the kernel by raising an undefined instruction +exception. The kernel responds by inspecting the VFP control registers and the +current instruction and arguments, and emulates the instruction in software. + +Such software assistance is currently not implemented for VFP instructions +executed in kernel mode. If such a condition is encountered, the kernel will +fail and generate an OOPS. + + +Separating NEON code from ordinary code +--------------------------------------- +The compiler is not aware of the special significance of kernel_neon_begin() and +kernel_neon_end(), i.e., that it is only allowed to issue NEON/VFP instructions +between calls to these respective functions. Furthermore, GCC may generate NEON +instructions of its own at -O3 level if -mfpu=neon is selected, and even if the +kernel is currently compiled at -O2, future changes may result in NEON/VFP +instructions appearing in unexpected places if no special care is taken. + +Therefore, the recommended and only supported way of using NEON/VFP in the +kernel is by adhering to the following rules: + +* isolate the NEON code in a separate compilation unit and compile it with + '-march=armv7-a -mfpu=neon -mfloat-abi=softfp'; +* issue the calls to kernel_neon_begin(), kernel_neon_end() as well as the calls + into the unit containing the NEON code from a compilation unit which is *not* + built with the GCC flag '-mfpu=neon' set. + +As the kernel is compiled with '-msoft-float', the above will guarantee that +both NEON and VFP instructions will only ever appear in designated compilation +units at any optimization level. + + +NEON assembler +-------------- +NEON assembler is supported with no additional caveats as long as the rules +above are followed. + + +NEON code generated by GCC +-------------------------- +The GCC option -ftree-vectorize (implied by -O3) tries to exploit implicit +parallelism, and generates NEON code from ordinary C source code. This is fully +supported as long as the rules above are followed. + + +NEON intrinsics +--------------- +NEON intrinsics are also supported. However, as code using NEON intrinsics +relies on the GCC header , (which #includes ), you should +observe the following in addition to the rules above: + +* Compile the unit containing the NEON intrinsics with '-ffreestanding' so GCC + uses its builtin version of (this is a C99 header which the kernel + does not supply); +* Do not include directly: instead, include , + which tweaks some macro definitions so that system headers can be included + safely. diff --git a/Documentation/arch/arm/kernel_user_helpers.rst b/Documentation/arch/arm/kernel_user_helpers.rst new file mode 100644 index 000000000..eb6f3d916 --- /dev/null +++ b/Documentation/arch/arm/kernel_user_helpers.rst @@ -0,0 +1,268 @@ +============================ +Kernel-provided User Helpers +============================ + +These are segment of kernel provided user code reachable from user space +at a fixed address in kernel memory. This is used to provide user space +with some operations which require kernel help because of unimplemented +native feature and/or instructions in many ARM CPUs. The idea is for this +code to be executed directly in user mode for best efficiency but which is +too intimate with the kernel counter part to be left to user libraries. +In fact this code might even differ from one CPU to another depending on +the available instruction set, or whether it is a SMP systems.

Therefore the alignment fixup is now unconditionally +configured in for SA11x0 based targets. According to Alan Cox, this is a +bad idea to configure it out, but Russell King has some good reasons for +doing so on some f***ed up ARM architectures like the EBSA110. However +this is not the case on many design I'm aware of, like all SA11x0 based +ones. + +Of course this is a bad idea to rely on the alignment trap to perform +unaligned memory access in general. If those access are predictable, you +are better to use the macros provided by include/linux/unaligned.h. The +alignment trap can fixup misaligned access for the exception cases, but at +a high performance cost. It better be rare. + +Now for user space applications, it is possible to configure the alignment +trap to SIGBUS any code performing unaligned access (good for debugging bad +code), or even fixup the access by software like for kernel code. The later +mode isn't recommended for performance reasons (just think about the +floating point emulation that works about the same way). Fix your code +instead! + +Please note that randomly changing the behaviour without good thought is +real bad - it changes the behaviour of all unaligned instructions in user +space, and might cause programs to fail unexpectedly. + +To change the alignment trap behavior, simply echo a number into +/proc/cpu/alignment. The number is made up from various bits: + +=== ======================================================== +bit behavior when set +=== ======================================================== +0 A user process performing an unaligned memory access + will cause the kernel to print a message indicating + process name, pid, pc, instruction, address, and the + fault code. + +1 The kernel will attempt to fix up the user process + performing the unaligned access.

One of +the problems is with leading underscores on kernel symbols. Elf +kernels have no leading underscores, a.out compiled kernels do.

I have attempted to +contain all operating system specific code in one module (fpmodule.*). +All the other files contain emulator specific code. This should allow +others to port the emulator to NetBSD for instance relatively easily. + +The floating point operations are based on SoftFloat Release 2, by +John Hauser. SoftFloat is a software implementation of floating-point +that conforms to the IEC/IEEE Standard for Binary Floating-point +Arithmetic. As many as four formats are supported: single precision, +double precision, extended double precision, and quadruple precision. +All operations required by the standard are implemented, except for +conversions to and from decimal. We use only the single precision, +double precision and extended double precision formats. The port of +SoftFloat to the ARM was done by Phil Blundell, based on an earlier +port of SoftFloat version 1 by Neil Carson for NetBSD/arm32. + +The file README.FPE contains a description of what has been implemented +so far in the emulator.

In addition to +modelling the hardware overlays, omapdss supports virtual overlays and overlay +managers. These can be used when updating a display with CPU or system DMA. + +omapdss driver support for audio +-------------------------------- +There exist several display technologies and standards that support audio as +well. Hence, it is relevant to update the DSS device driver to provide an audio +interface that may be used by an audio driver or any other driver interested in +the functionality. + +The audio_enable function is intended to prepare the relevant +IP for playback (e.g., enabling an audio FIFO, taking in/out of reset +some IP, enabling companion chips, etc). It is intended to be called before +audio_start. The audio_disable function performs the reverse operation and is +intended to be called after audio_stop. + +While a given DSS device driver may support audio, it is possible that for +certain configurations audio is not supported (e.g., an HDMI display using a +VESA video timing). The audio_supported function is intended to query whether +the current configuration of the display supports audio. + +The audio_config function is intended to configure all the relevant audio +parameters of the display. In order to make the function independent of any +specific DSS device driver, a struct omap_dss_audio is defined. Its purpose +is to contain all the required parameters for audio configuration. At the +moment, such structure contains pointers to IEC-60958 channel status word +and CEA-861 audio infoframe structures. This should be enough to support +HDMI and DisplayPort, as both are based on CEA-861 and IEC-60958. + +The audio_enable/disable, audio_config and audio_supported functions could be +implemented as functions that may sleep. Hence, they should not be called +while holding a spinlock or a readlock. + +The audio_start/audio_stop function is intended to effectively start/stop audio +playback after the configuration has taken place. These functions are designed +to be used in an atomic context. Hence, audio_start should return quickly and be +called only after all the needed resources for audio playback (audio FIFOs, +DMA channels, companion chips, etc) have been enabled to begin data transfers. +audio_stop is designed to only stop the audio transfers. The resources used +for playback are released using audio_disable. + +The enum omap_dss_audio_state may be used to help the implementations of +the interface to keep track of the audio state. The initial state is _DISABLED; +then, the state transitions to _CONFIGURED, and then, when it is ready to +play audio, to _ENABLED. The state _PLAYING is used when the audio is being +rendered. + + +Panel and controller drivers +---------------------------- + +The drivers implement panel or controller specific functionality and are not +usually visible to users except through omapfb driver. They register +themselves to the DSS driver. + +omapfb driver +------------- + +The omapfb driver implements arbitrary number of standard linux framebuffers. +These framebuffers can be routed flexibly to any overlays, thus allowing very +dynamic display architecture. + +The driver exports some omapfb specific ioctls, which are compatible with the +ioctls in the old driver. + +The rest of the non standard features are exported via sysfs. Whether the final +implementation will use sysfs, or ioctls, is still open. + +V4L2 drivers +------------ + +V4L2 is being implemented in TI. + +From omapdss point of view the V4L2 drivers should be similar to framebuffer +driver. + +Architecture +-------------------- + +Some clarification what the different components do: + + - Framebuffer is a memory area inside OMAP's SRAM/SDRAM that contains the + pixel data for the image. Framebuffer has width and height and color + depth. + - Overlay defines where the pixels are read from and where they go on the + screen. The overlay may be smaller than framebuffer, thus displaying only + part of the framebuffer. The position of the overlay may be changed if + the overlay is smaller than the display. + - Overlay manager combines the overlays in to one image and feeds them to + display. + - Display is the actual physical display device. + +A framebuffer can be connected to multiple overlays to show the same pixel data +on all of the overlays. Note that in this case the overlay input sizes must be +the same, but, in case of video overlays, the output size can be different. Any +framebuffer can be connected to any overlay. + +An overlay can be connected to one overlay manager. Also DISPC overlays can be +connected only to DISPC overlay managers, and virtual overlays can be only +connected to virtual overlays. + +An overlay manager can be connected to one display. There are certain +restrictions which kinds of displays an overlay manager can be connected: + + - DISPC TV overlay manager can be only connected to TV display. + - Virtual overlay managers can only be connected to DBI or DSI displays. + - DISPC LCD overlay manager can be connected to all displays, except TV + display. + +Sysfs +----- +The sysfs interface is mainly used for testing.

This document describes the existing MFP API, +and how board/platform driver authors could make use of it. + +Basic Concept +============= + +Unlike the GPIO alternate function settings on PXA25x and PXA27x, a new MFP +mechanism is introduced from PXA3xx to completely move the pin-mux functions +out of the GPIO controller. In addition to pin-mux configurations, the MFP +also controls the low power state, driving strength, pull-up/down and event +detection of each pin.

GPIO controller on PXA3xx is now a dedicated controller, same as other + internal controllers like PWM, SSP and UART, with 128 internal signals + which can be routed to external through one or more MFPs (e.g. GPIO<0> + can be routed through either MFP_PIN_GPIO0 as well as MFP_PIN_GPIO0_2, + see arch/arm/mach-pxa/mfp-pxa300.h) + + 2. Alternate function configuration is removed from this GPIO controller, + the remaining functions are pure GPIO-specific, i.e. + + - GPIO signal level control + - GPIO direction control + - GPIO level change detection + + 3. Low power state for each pin is now controlled by MFP, this means the + PGSRx registers on PXA2xx are now useless on PXA3xx + + 4. Wakeup detection is now controlled by MFP, PWER does not control the + wakeup from GPIO(s) any more, depending on the sleeping state, ADxER + (as defined in pxa3xx-regs.h) controls the wakeup from MFP + +NOTE: with such a clear separation of MFP and GPIO, by GPIO we normally +mean it is a GPIO signal, and by MFP or pin xxx, we mean a physical +pad (or ball). + +MFP API Usage +============= + +For board code writers, here are some guidelines: + +1. include ONE of the following header files in your .c: + + - #include "mfp-pxa25x.h" + - #include "mfp-pxa27x.h" + - #include "mfp-pxa300.h" + - #include "mfp-pxa320.h" + - #include "mfp-pxa930.h" + + NOTE: only one file in your .c, depending on the processors used, + because pin configuration definitions may conflict in these file (i.e. + same name, different meaning and settings on different processors). E.g. + for zylonite platform, which support both PXA300/PXA310 and PXA320, two + separate files are introduced: zylonite_pxa300.c and zylonite_pxa320.c + (in addition to handle MFP configuration differences, they also handle + the other differences between the two combinations). + + NOTE: PXA300 and PXA310 are almost identical in pin configurations (with + PXA310 supporting some additional ones), thus the difference is actually + covered in a single mfp-pxa300.h. + +2. prepare an array for the initial pin configurations, e.g.:: + + static unsigned long mainstone_pin_config[] __initdata = { + /* Chip Select */ + GPIO15_nCS_1, + + /* LCD - 16bpp Active TFT */ + GPIOxx_TFT_LCD_16BPP, + GPIO16_PWM0_OUT, /* Backlight */ + + /* MMC */ + GPIO32_MMC_CLK, + GPIO112_MMC_CMD, + GPIO92_MMC_DAT_0, + GPIO109_MMC_DAT_1, + GPIO110_MMC_DAT_2, + GPIO111_MMC_DAT_3, + + ... + + /* GPIO */ + GPIO1_GPIO | WAKEUP_ON_EDGE_BOTH, + }; + + a) once the pin configurations are passed to pxa{2xx,3xx}_mfp_config(), + and written to the actual registers, they are useless and may discard, + adding '__initdata' will help save some additional bytes here. + + b) when there is only one possible pin configurations for a component, + some simplified definitions can be used, e.g. GPIOxx_TFT_LCD_16BPP on + PXA25x and PXA27x processors + + c) if by board design, a pin can be configured to wake up the system + from low power state, it can be 'OR'ed with any of: + + WAKEUP_ON_EDGE_BOTH + WAKEUP_ON_EDGE_RISE + WAKEUP_ON_EDGE_FALL + WAKEUP_ON_LEVEL_HIGH - specifically for enabling of keypad GPIOs, + + to indicate that this pin has the capability of wake-up the system, + and on which edge(s).

Two sets of MFPR values are calculated: the run-time + ones and the low power mode ones, to allow different settings. + + The conversion from a generic pin configuration to the actual register + settings on PXA2xx is a bit complicated: many registers are involved, + including GAFRx, GPDRx, PGSRx, PWER, PKWR, PFER and PRER.

SPDX-License-Identifier: GPL-2.0 + +======================= +STM32 DMA-MDMA chaining +======================= + + +Introduction +------------ + + This document describes the STM32 DMA-MDMA chaining feature. But before going + further, let's introduce the peripherals involved. + + To offload data transfers from the CPU, STM32 microprocessors (MPUs) embed + direct memory access controllers (DMA). + + STM32MP1 SoCs embed both STM32 DMA and STM32 MDMA controllers. STM32 DMA + request routing capabilities are enhanced by a DMA request multiplexer + (STM32 DMAMUX). + + **STM32 DMAMUX** + + STM32 DMAMUX routes any DMA request from a given peripheral to any STM32 DMA + controller (STM32MP1 counts two STM32 DMA controllers) channels. + + **STM32 DMA** + + STM32 DMA is mainly used to implement central data buffer storage (usually in + the system SRAM) for different peripheral. It can access external RAMs but + without the ability to generate convenient burst transfer ensuring the best + load of the AXI. + + **STM32 MDMA** + + STM32 MDMA (Master DMA) is mainly used to manage direct data transfers between + RAM data buffers without CPU intervention. It can also be used in a + hierarchical structure that uses STM32 DMA as first level data buffer + interfaces for AHB peripherals, while the STM32 MDMA acts as a second level + DMA with better performance. As a AXI/AHB master, STM32 MDMA can take control + of the AXI/AHB bus. + + +Principles +---------- + + STM32 DMA-MDMA chaining feature relies on the strengths of STM32 DMA and + STM32 MDMA controllers. + + STM32 DMA has a circular Double Buffer Mode (DBM). At each end of transaction + (when DMA data counter - DMA_SxNDTR - reaches 0), the memory pointers + (configured with DMA_SxSM0AR and DMA_SxM1AR) are swapped and the DMA data + counter is automatically reloaded. This allows the SW or the STM32 MDMA to + process one memory area while the second memory area is being filled/used by + the STM32 DMA transfer. + + With STM32 MDMA linked-list mode, a single request initiates the data array + (collection of nodes) to be transferred until the linked-list pointer for the + channel is null. The channel transfer complete of the last node is the end of + transfer, unless first and last nodes are linked to each other, in such a + case, the linked-list loops on to create a circular MDMA transfer. + + STM32 MDMA has direct connections with STM32 DMA. This enables autonomous + communication and synchronization between peripherals, thus saving CPU + resources and bus congestion. Transfer Complete signal of STM32 DMA channel + can triggers STM32 MDMA transfer. STM32 MDMA can clear the request generated + by the STM32 DMA by writing to its Interrupt Clear register (whose address is + stored in MDMA_CxMAR, and bit mask in MDMA_CxMDR). + + .. table:: STM32 MDMA interconnect table with STM32 DMA + + +--------------+----------------+-----------+------------+ + | STM32 DMAMUX | STM32 DMA | STM32 DMA | STM32 MDMA | + | channels | channels | Transfer | request | + | | | complete | | + | | | signal | | + +==============+================+===========+============+ + | Channel *0* | DMA1 channel 0 | dma1_tcf0 | *0x00* | + +--------------+----------------+-----------+------------+ + | Channel *1* | DMA1 channel 1 | dma1_tcf1 | *0x01* | + +--------------+----------------+-----------+------------+ + | Channel *2* | DMA1 channel 2 | dma1_tcf2 | *0x02* | + +--------------+----------------+-----------+------------+ + | Channel *3* | DMA1 channel 3 | dma1_tcf3 | *0x03* | + +--------------+----------------+-----------+------------+ + | Channel *4* | DMA1 channel 4 | dma1_tcf4 | *0x04* | + +--------------+----------------+-----------+------------+ + | Channel *5* | DMA1 channel 5 | dma1_tcf5 | *0x05* | + +--------------+----------------+-----------+------------+ + | Channel *6* | DMA1 channel 6 | dma1_tcf6 | *0x06* | + +--------------+----------------+-----------+------------+ + | Channel *7* | DMA1 channel 7 | dma1_tcf7 | *0x07* | + +--------------+----------------+-----------+------------+ + | Channel *8* | DMA2 channel 0 | dma2_tcf0 | *0x08* | + +--------------+----------------+-----------+------------+ + | Channel *9* | DMA2 channel 1 | dma2_tcf1 | *0x09* | + +--------------+----------------+-----------+------------+ + | Channel *10* | DMA2 channel 2 | dma2_tcf2 | *0x0A* | + +--------------+----------------+-----------+------------+ + | Channel *11* | DMA2 channel 3 | dma2_tcf3 | *0x0B* | + +--------------+----------------+-----------+------------+ + | Channel *12* | DMA2 channel 4 | dma2_tcf4 | *0x0C* | + +--------------+----------------+-----------+------------+ + | Channel *13* | DMA2 channel 5 | dma2_tcf5 | *0x0D* | + +--------------+----------------+-----------+------------+ + | Channel *14* | DMA2 channel 6 | dma2_tcf6 | *0x0E* | + +--------------+----------------+-----------+------------+ + | Channel *15* | DMA2 channel 7 | dma2_tcf7 | *0x0F* | + +--------------+----------------+-----------+------------+ + + STM32 DMA-MDMA chaining feature then uses a SRAM buffer.

Allocate a STM32 DMA channel and a STM32 MDMA channel** + + You need to define an extra channel in your device tree node, in addition to + the one you should already have for "classic" DMA operation. + + This new channel must be taken from STM32 MDMA channels, so, the phandle of + the DMA controller to use is the MDMA controller's one. + :: + + &my_foo_device { + [...] + my_dma_pool = &my_foo_device_dma_pool; + dmas = <&dmamux1 ...>, // STM32 DMA channel + <&mdma1 0 0x3 0x1200000a 0 0>; // + STM32 MDMA channel + }; + + Concerning STM32 MDMA bindings: + + 1.

Set controller specific parameters** + + First, use dmaengine_slave_config() with a struct dma_slave_config to + configure STM32 DMA channel. You just have to take care of DMA addresses, + the memory address (depending on the transfer direction) must point on your + SRAM buffer, and set (struct dma_slave_config).peripheral_size != 0. + + STM32 DMA driver will check (struct dma_slave_config).peripheral_size to + determine if chaining is being used or not. If it is used, then STM32 DMA + driver fills (struct dma_slave_config).peripheral_config with an array of + three u32 : the first one containing STM32 DMAMUX channel ID, the second one + the channel interrupt flag clear register address, and the third one the + channel Transfer Complete flag mask. + + Then, use dmaengine_slave_config with another struct dma_slave_config to + configure STM32 MDMA channel. Take care of DMA addresses, the device address + (depending on the transfer direction) must point on your SRAM buffer, and + the memory address must point to the buffer originally used for "classic" + DMA operation. Use the previous (struct dma_slave_config).peripheral_size + and .peripheral_config that have been updated by STM32 DMA driver, to set + (struct dma_slave_config).peripheral_size and .peripheral_config of the + struct dma_slave_config to configure STM32 MDMA channel. + :: + + struct dma_slave_config dma_conf; + struct dma_slave_config mdma_conf; + + memset(&dma_conf, 0, sizeof(dma_conf)); + [...] + config.direction = DMA_DEV_TO_MEM; + config.dst_addr = sram_dma_buf; // SRAM buffer + config.peripheral_size = 1; // peripheral_size != 0 => chaining + + dmaengine_slave_config(dma_chan, &dma_config); + + memset(&mdma_conf, 0, sizeof(mdma_conf)); + config.direction = DMA_DEV_TO_MEM; + mdma_conf.src_addr = sram_dma_buf; // SRAM buffer + mdma_conf.dst_addr = rx_dma_buf; // original memory buffer + mdma_conf.peripheral_size = dma_conf.peripheral_size; // <- dma_conf + mdma_conf.peripheral_config = dma_config.peripheral_config; // <- dma_conf + + dmaengine_slave_config(mdma_chan, &mdma_conf); + + **2. Get a descriptor for STM32 DMA channel transaction** + + In the same way you get your descriptor for your "classic" DMA operation, + you just have to replace the original sg_list (in case of + dmaengine_prep_slave_sg()) with the new sg_list using SRAM buffer, or to + replace the original buffer address, length and period (in case of + dmaengine_prep_dma_cyclic()) with the new SRAM buffer. + + **3. Get a descriptor for STM32 MDMA channel transaction** + + If you previously get descriptor (for STM32 DMA) with + + * dmaengine_prep_slave_sg(), then use dmaengine_prep_slave_sg() for + STM32 MDMA; + * dmaengine_prep_dma_cyclic(), then use dmaengine_prep_dma_cyclic() for + STM32 MDMA. + + Use the new sg_list using SRAM buffer (in case of dmaengine_prep_slave_sg()) + or, depending on the transfer direction, either the original DDR buffer (in + case of DMA_DEV_TO_MEM) or the SRAM buffer (in case of DMA_MEM_TO_DEV), the + source address being previously set with dmaengine_slave_config(). + + **4. Submit both transactions** + + Before submitting your transactions, you may need to define on which + descriptor you want a callback to be called at the end of the transfer + (dmaengine_prep_slave_sg()) or the period (dmaengine_prep_dma_cyclic()). + Depending on the direction, set the callback on the descriptor that finishes + the overall transfer: + + * DMA_DEV_TO_MEM: set the callback on the "MDMA" descriptor + * DMA_MEM_TO_DEV: set the callback on the "DMA" descriptor + + Then, submit the descriptors whatever the order, with dmaengine_tx_submit(). + + **5. Issue pending requests (and wait for callback notification)** + + As STM32 MDMA channel transfer is triggered by STM32 DMA, you must issue + STM32 MDMA channel before STM32 DMA channel. + + If any, your callback will be called to warn you about the end of the overall + transfer or the period completion. + + Don't forget to terminate both channels. STM32 DMA channel is configured in + cyclic Double-Buffer mode so it won't be disabled by HW, you need to terminate + it. STM32 MDMA channel will be stopped by HW in case of sg transfer, but not + in case of cyclic transfer. You can terminate it whatever the kind of transfer. + + **STM32 DMA-MDMA chaining DMA_MEM_TO_DEV special case** + + STM32 DMA-MDMA chaining in DMA_MEM_TO_DEV is a special case. Indeed, the + STM32 MDMA feeds the SRAM buffer with the DDR data, and the STM32 DMA reads + data from SRAM buffer. So some data (the first period) have to be copied in + SRAM buffer when the STM32 DMA starts to read. + + A trick could be pausing the STM32 DMA channel (that will raise a Transfer + Complete signal, triggering the STM32 MDMA channel), but the first data read + by the STM32 DMA could be "wrong". The proper way is to prepare the first SRAM + period with dmaengine_prep_dma_memcpy(). Then this first period should be + "removed" from the sg or the cyclic transfer. + + Due to this complexity, rather use the STM32 DMA-MDMA chaining for + DMA_DEV_TO_MEM and keep the "classic" DMA usage for DMA_MEM_TO_DEV, unless + you're not afraid. + +Resources +--------- + + Application note, datasheet and reference manual are available on ST website + (STM32MP1_). + + Dedicated focus on

The DTCM can not contain any +instructions, but the ITCM can actually contain data. +The size of DTCM or ITCM is minimum 4KiB so the typical +minimum configuration is 4KiB ITCM and 4KiB DTCM. + +ARM CPUs have special registers to read out status, physical +location and size of TCM memories. arch/arm/include/asm/cputype.h +defines a CPUID_TCM register that you can read out from the +system control coprocessor. Documentation from ARM can be found +at http://infocenter.arm.com, search for "TCM Status Register" +to see documents for all CPUs. Reading this register you can +determine if ITCM (bits 1-0) and/or DTCM (bit 17-16) is present +in the machine. + +There is further a TCM region register (search for "TCM Region +Registers" at the ARM site) that can report and modify the location +size of TCM memories at runtime. This is used to read out and modify +TCM location and size. Notice that this is not a MMU table: you +actually move the physical location of the TCM around. At the +place you put it, it will mask any underlying RAM from the +CPU so it is usually wise not to overlap any physical RAM with +the TCM. + +The TCM memory can then be remapped to another address again using +the MMU, but notice that the TCM is often used in situations where +the MMU is turned off. To avoid confusion the current Linux +implementation will map the TCM 1 to 1 from physical to virtual +memory in the location specified by the kernel. Currently Linux +will map ITCM to 0xfffe0000 and on, and DTCM to 0xfffe8000 and +on, supporting a maximum of 32KiB of ITCM and 32KiB of DTCM. + +Newer versions of the region registers also support dividing these +TCMs in two separate banks, so for example an 8KiB ITCM is divided +into two 4KiB banks with its own control registers. The idea is to +be able to lock and hide one of the banks for use by the secure +world (TrustZone). + +TCM is used for a few things: + +- FIQ and other interrupt handlers that need deterministic + timing and cannot wait for cache misses. + +- Idle loops where all external RAM is set to self-refresh + retention mode, so only on-chip RAM is accessible by + the CPU and then we hang inside ITCM waiting for an + interrupt. + +- Other operations which implies shutting off or reconfiguring + the external RAM controller. + +There is an interface for using TCM on the ARM architecture +in . Using this interface it is possible to: + +- Define the physical address and size of ITCM and DTCM. + +- Tag functions to be compiled into ITCM. + +- Tag data and constants to be allocated to DTCM and ITCM. + +- Have the remaining TCM RAM added to a special + allocation pool with gen_pool_create() and gen_pool_add() + and provide tcm_alloc() and tcm_free() for this + memory.

In the contended case, it is the + _last_ CPU which attempts to get the lock which will be most likely + to win. + + vlocks are therefore best suited to situations where it is necessary + to pick a unique winner, but it does not matter which CPU actually + wins. + + * Like other similar mechanisms, vlocks will not scale well to a large + number of CPUs. + + vlocks can be cascaded in a voting hierarchy to permit better scaling + if necessary, as in the following hypothetical example for 4096 CPUs:: + + /* first level: local election */ + my_town = towns[(this_cpu >> 4) & 0xf]; + I_won = vlock_trylock(my_town, this_cpu & 0xf); + if (I_won) { + /* we won the town election, let's go for the state */ + my_state = states[(this_cpu >> 8) & 0xf]; + I_won = vlock_lock(my_state, this_cpu & 0xf); + if (I_won) { + /* and so on */ + I_won = vlock_lock(the_whole_country, this_cpu & 0xf); + if (I_won) { + /* ... */ + } + vlock_unlock(the_whole_country); + } + vlock_unlock(my_state); + } + vlock_unlock(my_town); + + +ARM implementation +------------------ + +The current ARM implementation [2] contains some optimisations beyond +the basic algorithm: + + * By packing the members of the currently_voting array close together, + we can read the whole array in one transaction (providing the number + of CPUs potentially contending the lock is small enough). This + reduces the number of round-trips required to external memory. + + In the ARM implementation, this means that we can use a single load + and comparison:: + + LDR Rt, [Rn] + CMP Rt, #0 + + ...in place of code equivalent to:: + + LDRB Rt, [Rn] + CMP Rt, #0 + LDRBEQ Rt, [Rn, #1] + CMPEQ Rt, #0 + LDRBEQ Rt, [Rn, #2] + CMPEQ Rt, #0 + LDRBEQ Rt, [Rn, #3] + CMPEQ Rt, #0 + + This cuts down on the fast-path latency, as well as potentially + reducing bus contention in contended cases. + + The optimisation relies on the fact that the ARM memory system + guarantees coherency between overlapping memory accesses of + different sizes, similarly to many other architectures. Note that + we do not care which element of currently_voting appears in which + bits of Rt, so there is no need to worry about endianness in this + optimisation. + + If there are too many CPUs to read the currently_voting array in + one transaction then multiple transactions are still required. The + implementation uses a simple loop of word-sized loads for this + case. The number of transactions is still fewer than would be + required if bytes were loaded individually. + + + In principle, we could aggregate further by using LDRD or LDM, but + to keep the code simple this was not attempted in the initial + implementation. + + + * vlocks are currently only used to coordinate between CPUs which are + unable to enable their caches yet. This means that the + implementation removes many of the barriers which would be required + when executing the algorithm in cached memory. + + packing of the currently_voting array does not work with cached + memory unless all CPUs contending the lock are cache-coherent, due + to cache writebacks from one CPU clobbering values written by other + CPUs. (Though if all the CPUs are cache-coherent, you should be + probably be using proper spinlocks instead anyway). + + + * The "no votes yet" value used for the last_vote variable is 0 (not + -1 as in the pseudocode). This allows statically-allocated vlocks + to be implicitly initialised to an unlocked state simply by putting + them in .bss. + + An offset is added to each CPU's ID for the purpose of setting this + variable, so that no CPU uses the value 0 for its ID. + + +Colophon +-------- + +Originally created and documented by Dave Martin for Linaro Limited, for +use in ARM-based big.LITTLE platforms, with review and input gratefully +received from Nicolas Pitre and Achin Gupta.

SPDX-License-Identifier: GPL-2.0-only + +==================================== +Booting Linux on ZTE zx297520v3 SoCs +==================================== + +Author: Stefan Dösinger + +Date : 27 Jan 2026 + +1. Hardware description +--------------------------- +Zx297520v3 SoCs use a 64-bit capable Cortex-A53 CPU and GICv3, although they +run in arm32 mode only. The CPU has support EL3, but no hypervisor (EL2) and +it seems to lack VFP and NEON. + +The SoC is used in a number of cheap LTE to WiFi routers, both battery powered +MiFis and stationary CPEs. In addition to the CPU these devices usually have +64 MB Ram (although some is shared with the LTE chip), 128 MB NAND flash, an +SDIO connected RTL8192-type Wifi chip limited to 2.4 ghz operation, USB 2, +and buttons. Devices with as low as 32 MB or as high as 128 MB ram exist, as +do devices with 8 or 16 MB of NOR flash. + +Some devices, especially the stationary ones, have 100 mbit Ethernet and an +Ethernet switch. + +Usually the devices have LEDs for status indication, although some have SPI or +I2C connected displays. + +Some have an SD card slot. If it exists, it is a better choice for the root +file system because it easily outperforms the built-in NAND. + +The LTE interface runs on a separate DSP called ZSP880. It is probably derived +from LSI ZSPs and has an undocumented instruction set. The ZSP communicates +with the main CPU via SRAM and DRAM and a mailbox hardware that can generate +IRQs on either ends. + +There is also a Cortex M0 CPU, which is responsible for early HW initialization +and starting the Cortex A53 CPU. It does not have any essential purpose once +U-Boot is started. An SRAM-based handover protocol exists to run custom code on +this CPU. + +2. Booting via USB +--------------------------- + +The Boot ROM has support for booting custom code via USB. This mode can be +entered by connecting a Boot PIN to GND or by modifying the third byte on NAND +(set it to anything other than 0x5A aka 'Z'). A free software tool to start +custom U-Boot and kernels can be found here: + +https://github.com/zx297520v3-mainline/zx297520v3-loader + +If USB download mode is entered but no boot commands are sent through USB, the +device will proceed to boot normally after a few seconds. It is therefore +possible to enable USB boot permanently and still leave the default boot files +in place. + +https://github.com/zx297520v3-mainline/u-boot-mainline + +Contains an U-Boot version that can be used with the USB loader and sets up the +CPU and interrupt controller to comply with Linux's booting requirements. + +3. Building for built-in U-Boot +------------------------------- +The devices come with an ancient U-Boot that loads legacy uImages from NAND and +boots them without a chance for the user to interrupt. The images are stored in +files ap_cpuap.bin and ap_recovery.bin on a jffs2 partition named imagefs, +usually mtd4. A file named "fotaflag" switches between the two modes. + +In addition to the uImage header, those files have a 384-byte signature header, +which is used for authenticating the images on some devices. Most devices have +this authentication disabled and it is enough to pad the uImage files with 384 +zero bytes. + +Builtin U-Boot also poorly sets up the CPU. Read the next section for details +on this. It has no support for loading DTBs, so CONFIG_ARM_APPENDED_DTB is +needed. + +So to build an image that boots from NAND the following steps are necessary: + +1) Patch the assembly code from section 3 into arch/arm/kernel/head.S. +2) make zx29_defconfig +3) make [-j x] +4) cat arch/arm/boot/zImage arch/arm/boot/dts/zte/[device].dtb > kernel+dtb +5) mkimage -A arm -O linux -T kernel -C none -a 0x20008000 -d kernel+dtb uimg +6) dd if=/dev/zero bs=1 count=384 of=ap_recovery.bin +7) cat uimg >> ap_recovery.bin +8) Place this file onto imagefs on the device. Delete ap_cpuap.bin if the + free space is not enough. +9) Create the file fotaflag: echo -n FOTA-RECOVERY > fotaflag + +For development, booting ap_recovery.bin is recommended because the normal boot +mode arms the watchdog before starting the kernel. + +4. CPU and GIC Setup +--------------------------- + +Generally CPU and GICv3 need to be set up according to the requirements spelled +out in Documentation/arch/arm64/booting.rst. For zx297520v3 this means: + +1. GICD_CTLR.DS=1 to disable GIC security +2. Enable access to ICC_SRE +3. Disable trapping IRQs into monitor mode +4. Configure EL2 and below to run in insecure mode. +5. Configure timer PPIs to active-low. + +The kernel sources provided by ZTE do not boot either (interrupts do not work +at all). They are incomplete in other aspects too, so it is assumed that there +is some workaround similar to the one described in this document somewhere in +the binary blobs. + +The assembly code below is given as an example of how to achieve this: + +:: + + #include + #include + #include + + @ Detect sane bootloaders and skip the hack + ldr r3, =0xf2000000 + ldr r3, [r3] + ldr r4, =(GICD_CTLR_ARE_NS | GICD_CTLR_DS) + cmp r3, r4 + beq skip_zx_hack + @ This allows EL1 to handle ints hat are normally handled by EL2/3. + ldr r3, =0xf2000000 + str r4, [r3] + + cps #MON_MODE + + @ Work in non-secure physical address space: SCR_EL3.NS = 1.
