Chapter 19: Inline assembly
In architecture-specific code, you may need to use inline assembly to interface
with CPU or platform functionality. Don't hesitate to do so when necessary.
However, don't use inline assembly gratuitously when C can do the job. You can
and should poke hardware from C when possible.
Consider writing simple helper functions that wrap common bits of inline
assembly, rather than repeatedly writing them with slight variations. Remember
that inline assembly can use C parameters.
Large, non-trivial assembly functions should go in .S files, with corresponding
C prototypes defined in C header files. The C prototypes for assembly
functions should use "asmlinkage".
You may need to mark your asm statement as volatile, to prevent GCC from
removing it if GCC doesn't notice any side effects. You don't always need to
do so, though, and doing so unnecessarily can limit optimization.
When writing a single inline assembly statement containing multiple
instructions, put each instruction on a separate line in a separate quoted
string, and end each string except the last with \n\t to properly indent the
next instruction in the assembly output:
asm ("magic %reg1, #42\n\t"
"more_magic %reg2, %reg3"
: /* outputs */ : /* inputs */ : /* clobbers */);

The Common Clk Framework
Mike Turquette <mturquette@ti.com>
This document endeavours to explain the common clk framework details,
and how to port a platform over to this framework. It is not yet a
detailed explanation of the clock api in include/linux/clk.h, but
perhaps someday it will include that information.
Part 1 - introduction and interface split
The common clk framework is an interface to control the clock nodes
available on various devices today. This may come in the form of clock
gating, rate adjustment, muxing or other operations. This framework is
enabled with the CONFIG_COMMON_CLK option.
The interface itself is divided into two halves, each shielded from the
details of its counterpart. First is the common definition of struct
clk which unifies the framework-level accounting and infrastructure that
has traditionally been duplicated across a variety of platforms. Second
is a common implementation of the clk.h api, defined in
drivers/clk/clk.c. Finally there is struct clk_ops, whose operations
are invoked by the clk api implementation.
The second half of the interface is comprised of the hardware-specific
callbacks registered with struct clk_ops and the corresponding
hardware-specific structures needed to model a particular clock. For
the remainder of this document any reference to a callback in struct
clk_ops, such as .enable or .set_rate, implies the hardware-specific
implementation of that code. Likewise, references to struct clk_foo
serve as a convenient shorthand for the implementation of the
hardware-specific bits for the hypothetical "foo" hardware.
Tying the two halves of this interface together is struct clk_hw, which
is defined in struct clk_foo and pointed to within struct clk. This
allows easy for navigation between the two discrete halves of the common
clock interface.
Part 2 - common data structures and api
Below is the common struct clk definition from
include/linux/clk-private.h, modified for brevity:
struct clk {
const char *name;
const struct clk_ops *ops;
struct clk_hw *hw;
char **parent_names;
struct clk **parents;
struct clk *parent;
struct hlist_head children;
struct hlist_node child_node;
...
};
The members above make up the core of the clk tree topology. The clk
api itself defines several driver-facing functions which operate on
struct clk. That api is documented in include/linux/clk.h.
Platforms and devices utilizing the common struct clk use the struct
clk_ops pointer in struct clk to perform the hardware-specific parts of
the operations defined in clk.h:
struct clk_ops {
int (*prepare)(struct clk_hw *hw);
void (*unprepare)(struct clk_hw *hw);
int (*enable)(struct clk_hw *hw);
void (*disable)(struct clk_hw *hw);
int (*is_enabled)(struct clk_hw *hw);
unsigned long (*recalc_rate)(struct clk_hw *hw,
unsigned long parent_rate);
long (*round_rate)(struct clk_hw *hw, unsigned long,
unsigned long *);
int (*set_parent)(struct clk_hw *hw, u8 index);
u8 (*get_parent)(struct clk_hw *hw);
int (*set_rate)(struct clk_hw *hw, unsigned long);
void (*init)(struct clk_hw *hw);
};
Part 3 - hardware clk implementations
The strength of the common struct clk comes from its .ops and .hw pointers
which abstract the details of struct clk from the hardware-specific bits, and
vice versa. To illustrate consider the simple gateable clk implementation in
drivers/clk/clk-gate.c:
struct clk_gate {
struct clk_hw hw;
void __iomem *reg;
u8 bit_idx;
...
};
struct clk_gate contains struct clk_hw hw as well as hardware-specific
knowledge about which register and bit controls this clk's gating.
Nothing about clock topology or accounting, such as enable_count or
notifier_count, is needed here. That is all handled by the common
framework code and struct clk.
Let's walk through enabling this clk from driver code:
struct clk *clk;
clk = clk_get(NULL, "my_gateable_clk");
clk_prepare(clk);
clk_enable(clk);
The call graph for clk_enable is very simple:
clk_enable(clk);
clk->ops->enable(clk->hw);
[resolves to...]
clk_gate_enable(hw);
[resolves struct clk gate with to_clk_gate(hw)]
clk_gate_set_bit(gate);
And the definition of clk_gate_set_bit:
static void clk_gate_set_bit(struct clk_gate *gate)
{
u32 reg;
reg = __raw_readl(gate->reg);
reg |= BIT(gate->bit_idx);
writel(reg, gate->reg);
}
Note that to_clk_gate is defined as:
#define to_clk_gate(_hw) container_of(_hw, struct clk_gate, clk)
This pattern of abstraction is used for every clock hardware
representation.
Part 4 - supporting your own clk hardware
When implementing support for a new type of clock it only necessary to
include the following header:
#include <linux/clk-provider.h>
include/linux/clk.h is included within that header and clk-private.h
must never be included from the code which implements the operations for
a clock. More on that below in Part 5.
To construct a clk hardware structure for your platform you must define
the following:
struct clk_foo {
struct clk_hw hw;
... hardware specific data goes here ...
};
To take advantage of your data you'll need to support valid operations
for your clk:
struct clk_ops clk_foo_ops {
.enable = &clk_foo_enable;
.disable = &clk_foo_disable;
};
Implement the above functions using container_of:
#define to_clk_foo(_hw) container_of(_hw, struct clk_foo, hw)
int clk_foo_enable(struct clk_hw *hw)
{
struct clk_foo *foo;
foo = to_clk_foo(hw);
... perform magic on foo ...
return 0;
};
Below is a matrix detailing which clk_ops are mandatory based upon the
hardware capbilities of that clock. A cell marked as "y" means
mandatory, a cell marked as "n" implies that either including that
callback is invalid or otherwise uneccesary. Empty cells are either
optional or must be evaluated on a case-by-case basis.
clock hardware characteristics
-----------------------------------------------------------
| gate | change rate | single parent | multiplexer | root |
|------|-------------|---------------|-------------|------|
.prepare | | | | | |
.unprepare | | | | | |
| | | | | |
.enable | y | | | | |
.disable | y | | | | |
.is_enabled | y | | | | |
| | | | | |
.recalc_rate | | y | | | |
.round_rate | | y | | | |
.set_rate | | y | | | |
| | | | | |
.set_parent | | | n | y | n |
.get_parent | | | n | y | n |
| | | | | |
.init | | | | | |
-----------------------------------------------------------
Finally, register your clock at run-time with a hardware-specific
registration function. This function simply populates struct clk_foo's
data and then passes the common struct clk parameters to the framework
with a call to:
clk_register(...)
See the basic clock types in drivers/clk/clk-*.c for examples.
Part 5 - static initialization of clock data
For platforms with many clocks (often numbering into the hundreds) it
may be desirable to statically initialize some clock data. This
presents a problem since the definition of struct clk should be hidden
from everyone except for the clock core in drivers/clk/clk.c.
To get around this problem struct clk's definition is exposed in
include/linux/clk-private.h along with some macros for more easily
initializing instances of the basic clock types. These clocks must
still be initialized with the common clock framework via a call to
__clk_init.
clk-private.h must NEVER be included by code which implements struct
clk_ops callbacks, nor must it be included by any logic which pokes
around inside of struct clk at run-time. To do so is a layering
violation.
To better enforce this policy, always follow this simple rule: any
statically initialized clock data MUST be defined in a separate file
from the logic that implements its ops. Basically separate the logic
from the data and all is well.

dm-verity
==========
Device-Mapper's "verity" target provides transparent integrity checking of
block devices using a cryptographic digest provided by the kernel crypto API.
This target is read-only.
Construction Parameters
=======================
<version> <dev> <hash_dev> <hash_start>
<data_block_size> <hash_block_size>
<num_data_blocks> <hash_start_block>
<algorithm> <digest> <salt>
<version>
This is the version number of the on-disk format.
0 is the original format used in the Chromium OS.
The salt is appended when hashing, digests are stored continuously and
the rest of the block is padded with zeros.
1 is the current format that should be used for new devices.
The salt is prepended when hashing and each digest is
padded with zeros to the power of two.
<dev>
This is the device containing the data the integrity of which needs to be
checked. It may be specified as a path, like /dev/sdaX, or a device number,
<major>:<minor>.
<hash_dev>
This is the device that that supplies the hash tree data. It may be
specified similarly to the device path and may be the same device. If the
same device is used, the hash_start should be outside of the dm-verity
configured device size.
<data_block_size>
The block size on a data device. Each block corresponds to one digest on
the hash device.
<hash_block_size>
The size of a hash block.
<num_data_blocks>
The number of data blocks on the data device. Additional blocks are
inaccessible. You can place hashes to the same partition as data, in this
case hashes are placed after <num_data_blocks>.
<hash_start_block>
This is the offset, in <hash_block_size>-blocks, from the start of hash_dev
to the root block of the hash tree.
<algorithm>
The cryptographic hash algorithm used for this device. This should
be the name of the algorithm, like "sha1".
<digest>
The hexadecimal encoding of the cryptographic hash of the root hash block
and the salt. This hash should be trusted as there is no other authenticity
beyond this point.
<salt>
The hexadecimal encoding of the salt value.
Theory of operation
===================
dm-verity is meant to be setup as part of a verified boot path. This
may be anything ranging from a boot using tboot or trustedgrub to just
booting from a known-good device (like a USB drive or CD).
When a dm-verity device is configured, it is expected that the caller
has been authenticated in some way (cryptographic signatures, etc).
After instantiation, all hashes will be verified on-demand during
disk access. If they cannot be verified up to the root node of the
tree, the root hash, then the I/O will fail. This should identify
tampering with any data on the device and the hash data.
Cryptographic hashes are used to assert the integrity of the device on a
per-block basis. This allows for a lightweight hash computation on first read
into the page cache. Block hashes are stored linearly-aligned to the nearest
block the size of a page.
Hash Tree
---------
Each node in the tree is a cryptographic hash. If it is a leaf node, the hash
is of some block data on disk. If it is an intermediary node, then the hash is
of a number of child nodes.
Each entry in the tree is a collection of neighboring nodes that fit in one
block. The number is determined based on block_size and the size of the
selected cryptographic digest algorithm. The hashes are linearly-ordered in
this entry and any unaligned trailing space is ignored but included when
calculating the parent node.
The tree looks something like:
alg = sha256, num_blocks = 32768, block_size = 4096
[ root ]
/ . . . \
[entry_0] [entry_1]
/ . . . \ . . . \
[entry_0_0] . . . [entry_0_127] . . . . [entry_1_127]
/ ... \ / . . . \ / \
blk_0 ... blk_127 blk_16256 blk_16383 blk_32640 . . . blk_32767
On-disk format
==============
Below is the recommended on-disk format. The verity kernel code does not
read the on-disk header. It only reads the hash blocks which directly
follow the header. It is expected that a user-space tool will verify the
integrity of the verity_header and then call dmsetup with the correct
parameters. Alternatively, the header can be omitted and the dmsetup
parameters can be passed via the kernel command-line in a rooted chain
of trust where the command-line is verified.
The on-disk format is especially useful in cases where the hash blocks
are on a separate partition. The magic number allows easy identification
of the partition contents. Alternatively, the hash blocks can be stored
in the same partition as the data to be verified. In such a configuration
the filesystem on the partition would be sized a little smaller than
the full-partition, leaving room for the hash blocks.

block boundary) are the hash blocks which are stored a depth at a time
(starting from the root), sorted in order of increasing index.

- reg : Offset and length of the register set for the device
- nvidia,use-ram-code : If present, the sub-nodes will be addressed
and chosen using the ramcode board selector. If omitted, only one
set of tables can be present and said tables will be used
irrespective of ram-code configuration.
Child device nodes describe the memory settings for different configurations and clock rates.
Example:

#size-cells = < 0 >;
compatible = "nvidia,tegra20-emc";

}
Embedded Memory Controller ram-code table
If the emc node has the nvidia,use-ram-code property present, then the
next level of nodes below the emc table are used to specify which settings
apply for which ram-code settings.
If the emc node lacks the nvidia,use-ram-code property, this level is omitted
and the tables are stored directly under the emc node (see below).
Properties:
- name : Should be emc-tables
- nvidia,ram-code : the binary representation of the ram-code board strappings
for which this node (and children) are valid.
Embedded Memory Controller configuration table
This is a table containing the EMC register settings for the various
operating speeds of the memory controller. They are always located as
subnodes of the emc controller node.
There are two ways of specifying which tables to use:
* The simplest is if there is just one set of tables in the device tree,
and they will always be used (based on which frequency is used).
This is the preferred method, especially when firmware can fill in
this information based on the specific system information and just
pass it on to the kernel.
* The slightly more complex one is when more than one memory configuration
might exist on the system. The Tegra20 platform handles this during
early boot by selecting one out of possible 4 memory settings based
on a 2-pin "ram code" bootstrap setting on the board. The values of
these strappings can be read through a register in the SoC, and thus
used to select which tables to use.
Properties:
- name : Should be emc-table
- compatible : Should contain "nvidia,tegra20-emc-table".
- reg : either an opaque enumerator to tell different tables apart, or
the valid frequency for which the table should be used (in kHz).
- clock-frequency : the clock frequency for the EMC at which this
table should be used (in kHz).
- nvidia,emc-registers : a 46 word array of EMC registers to be programmed
for operation at the 'clock-frequency' setting.
The order and contents of the registers are:

NVIDIA Tegra Power Management Controller (PMC)
Properties:
- name : Should be pmc
- compatible : Should contain "nvidia,tegra<chip>-pmc".
- reg : Offset and length of the register set for the device
- nvidia,invert-interrupt : If present, inverts the PMU interrupt signal.
The PMU is an external Power Management Unit, whose interrupt output
signal is fed into the PMC. This signal is optionally inverted, and then
fed into the ARM GIC. The PMC is not involved in the detection or
handling of this interrupt signal, merely its inversion.
Example:
pmc@7000f400 {
compatible = "nvidia,tegra20-pmc";
reg = <0x7000e400 0x400>;

* ARM Timer Watchdog
ARM 11MP, Cortex-A5 and Cortex-A9 are often associated with a per-core
Timer-Watchdog (aka TWD), which provides both a per-cpu local timer
and watchdog.
The TWD is usually attached to a GIC to deliver its two per-processor
interrupts.
** Timer node required properties:
- compatible : Should be one of:
"arm,cortex-a9-twd-timer"
"arm,cortex-a5-twd-timer"
"arm,arm11mp-twd-timer"
- interrupts : One interrupt to each core
- reg : Specify the base address and the size of the TWD timer
register window.
Example:
twd-timer@2c000600 {
compatible = "arm,arm11mp-twd-timer"";
reg = <0x2c000600 0x20>;
interrupts = <1 13 0xf01>;
};
** Watchdog node properties:
- compatible : Should be one of:
"arm,cortex-a9-twd-wdt"
"arm,cortex-a5-twd-wdt"
"arm,arm11mp-twd-wdt"
- interrupts : One interrupt to each core
- reg : Specify the base address and the size of the TWD watchdog
register window.
Example:
twd-watchdog@2c000620 {
compatible = "arm,arm11mp-twd-wdt";

ARM Versatile Express boards family
-----------------------------------
ARM's Versatile Express platform consists of a motherboard and one
or more daughterboards (tiles). The motherboard provides a set of
peripherals. Processor and RAM "live" on the tiles.
The motherboard and each core tile should be described by a separate
Device Tree source file, with the tile's description including
the motherboard file using a /include/ directive. As the motherboard
can be initialized in one of two different configurations ("memory
maps"), care must be taken to include the correct one.
Required properties in the root node:
- compatible value:
compatible = "arm,vexpress,<model>", "arm,vexpress";
where <model> is the full tile model name (as used in the tile's
Technical Reference Manual), eg.:
- for Coretile Express A5x2 (V2P-CA5s):
compatible = "arm,vexpress,v2p-ca5s", "arm,vexpress";
- for Coretile Express A9x4 (V2P-CA9):
compatible = "arm,vexpress,v2p-ca9", "arm,vexpress";
If a tile comes in several variants or can be used in more then one
configuration, the compatible value should be:
compatible = "arm,vexpress,<model>,<variant>", \
"arm,vexpress,<model>", "arm,vexpress";
eg:
- Coretile Express A15x2 (V2P-CA15) with Tech Chip 1:
compatible = "arm,vexpress,v2p-ca15,tc1", \
"arm,vexpress,v2p-ca15", "arm,vexpress";
- LogicTile Express 13MG (V2F-2XV6) running Cortex-A7 (3 cores) SMM:
compatible = "arm,vexpress,v2f-2xv6,ca7x3", \
"arm,vexpress,v2f-2xv6", "arm,vexpress";
Optional properties in the root node:
- tile model name (use name from the tile's Technical Reference
Manual, eg. "V2P-CA5s")
model = "<model>";
- tile's HBI number (unique ARM's board model ID, visible on the
PCB's silkscreen) in hexadecimal transcription:
arm,hbi = <0xhbi>
eg:
- for Coretile Express A5x2 (V2P-CA5s) HBI-0191:
arm,hbi = <0x191>;
- Coretile Express A9x4 (V2P-CA9) HBI-0225:
arm,hbi = <0x225>;
Top-level standard "cpus" node is required. It must contain a node
with device_type = "cpu" property for every available core, eg.:
cpus {
#address-cells = <1>;
#size-cells = <0>;
cpu@0 {
device_type = "cpu";
compatible = "arm,cortex-a5";
reg = <0>;
};
};
The motherboard description file provides a single "motherboard" node
using 2 address cells corresponding to the Static Memory Bus used
between the motherboard and the tile. The first cell defines the Chip
Select (CS) line number, the second cell address offset within the CS.
All interrupt lines between the motherboard and the tile are active
high and are described using single cell.
Optional properties of the "motherboard" node:
- motherboard's memory map variant:
arm,v2m-memory-map = "<name>";
where name is one of:
- "rs1" - for RS1 map (i.a. peripherals on CS3); this map is also
referred to as "ARM Cortex-A Series memory map":
arm,v2m-memory-map = "rs1";
When this property is missing, the motherboard is using the original
memory map (also known as the "Legacy memory map", primarily used
with the original CoreTile Express A9x4) with peripherals on CS7.
Motherboard .dtsi files provide a set of labelled peripherals that
can be used to obtain required phandle in the tile's "aliases" node:
- UARTs, note that the numbers correspond to the physical connectors
on the motherboard's back panel:
v2m_serial0, v2m_serial1, v2m_serial2 and v2m_serial3
- I2C controllers:
v2m_i2c_dvi and v2m_i2c_pcie
- SP804 timers:
v2m_timer01 and v2m_timer23
Current Linux implementation requires a "arm,v2m_timer" alias
pointing at one of the motherboard's SP804 timers, if it is to be
used as the system timer. This alias should be defined in the
motherboard files.
The tile description must define "ranges", "interrupt-map-mask" and
"interrupt-map" properties to translate the motherboard's address
and interrupt space into one used by the tile's processor.
Abbreviated example:
/dts-v1/;
/ {
model = "V2P-CA5s";
arm,hbi = <0x225>;
compatible = "arm,vexpress-v2p-ca5s", "arm,vexpress";

GPIO controller on CE4100 / Sodaville SoCs
==========================================
The bindings for CE4100's GPIO controller match the generic description
which is covered by the gpio.txt file in this folder.
The only additional property is the intel,muxctl property which holds the
value which is written into the MUXCNTL register.
There is no compatible property for now because the driver is probed via
PCI id (vendor 0x8086 device 0x2e67).
The interrupt specifier consists of two cells encoded as follows:
- <1st cell>: The interrupt-number that identifies the interrupt source.
- <2nd cell>: The level-sense information, encoded as follows:
4 - active high level-sensitive
8 - active low level-sensitive
Example of the GPIO device and one user:
pcigpio: gpio@b,1 {
/* two cells for GPIO and interrupt */
#gpio-cells = <2>;
#interrupt-cells = <2>;
compatible = "pci8086,2e67.2",
"pci8086,2e67",
"pciclassff0000",
"pciclassff00";
reg = <0x15900 0x0 0x0 0x0 0x0>;

interrupts = <15 1>;
/* It is an interrupt and GPIO controller itself */

Linux and the Device Tree
-------------------------
The Linux usage model for device tree data
Author: Grant Likely <grant.likely@secretlab.ca>
This article describes how Linux uses the device tree. An overview of
the device tree data format can be found on the device tree usage page
at devicetree.org[1].
[1] http://devicetree.org/Device_Tree_Usage
The "Open Firmware Device Tree", or simply Device Tree (DT), is a data
structure and language for describing hardware. More specifically, it
is a description of hardware that is readable by an operating system
so that the operating system doesn't need to hard code details of the
machine.
Structurally, the DT is a tree, or acyclic graph with named nodes, and
nodes may have an arbitrary number of named properties encapsulating
arbitrary data. A mechanism also exists to create arbitrary
links from one node to another outside of the natural tree structure.
Conceptually, a common set of usage conventions, called 'bindings',
is defined for how data should appear in the tree to describe typical
hardware characteristics including data busses, interrupt lines, GPIO
connections, and peripheral devices.
As much as possible, hardware is described using existing bindings to
maximize use of existing support code, but since property and node
names are simply text strings, it is easy to extend existing bindings
or create new ones by defining new nodes and properties. Be wary,
however, of creating a new binding without first doing some homework
about what already exists. There are currently two different,
incompatible, bindings for i2c busses that came about because the new
binding was created without first investigating how i2c devices were
already being enumerated in existing systems.
1. History
----------
The DT was originally created by Open Firmware as part of the
communication method for passing data from Open Firmware to a client
program (like to an operating system). An operating system used the
Device Tree to discover the topology of the hardware at runtime, and
thereby support a majority of available hardware without hard coded
information (assuming drivers were available for all devices).
Since Open Firmware is commonly used on PowerPC and SPARC platforms,
the Linux support for those architectures has for a long time used the
Device Tree.
In 2005, when PowerPC Linux began a major cleanup and to merge 32-bit
and 64-bit support, the decision was made to require DT support on all
powerpc platforms, regardless of whether or not they used Open
Firmware. To do this, a DT representation called the Flattened Device
Tree (FDT) was created which could be passed to the kernel as a binary
blob without requiring a real Open Firmware implementation. U-Boot,
kexec, and other bootloaders were modified to support both passing a
Device Tree Binary (dtb) and to modify a dtb at boot time. DT was
also added to the PowerPC boot wrapper (arch/powerpc/boot/*) so that
a dtb could be wrapped up with the kernel image to support booting
existing non-DT aware firmware.
Some time later, FDT infrastructure was generalized to be usable by
all architectures. At the time of this writing, 6 mainlined
architectures (arm, microblaze, mips, powerpc, sparc, and x86) and 1
out of mainline (nios) have some level of DT support.
2. Data Model
-------------
If you haven't already read the Device Tree Usage[1] page,
then go read it now. It's okay, I'll wait....
2.1 High Level View
-------------------
The most important thing to understand is that the DT is simply a data
structure that describes the hardware. There is nothing magical about
it, and it doesn't magically make all hardware configuration problems
go away. What it does do is provide a language for decoupling the
hardware configuration from the board and device driver support in the
Linux kernel (or any other operating system for that matter). Using
it allows board and device support to become data driven; to make
setup decisions based on data passed into the kernel instead of on
per-machine hard coded selections.
Ideally, data driven platform setup should result in less code
duplication and make it easier to support a wide range of hardware
with a single kernel image.
Linux uses DT data for three major purposes:
1) platform identification,
2) runtime configuration, and
3) device population.
2.2 Platform Identification
---------------------------
First and foremost, the kernel will use data in the DT to identify the
specific machine. In a perfect world, the specific platform shouldn't
matter to the kernel because all platform details would be described
perfectly by the device tree in a consistent and reliable manner.
Hardware is not perfect though, and so the kernel must identify the
machine during early boot so that it has the opportunity to run
machine-specific fixups.
In the majority of cases, the machine identity is irrelevant, and the
kernel will instead select setup code based on the machine's core
CPU or SoC. On ARM for example, setup_arch() in
arch/arm/kernel/setup.c will call setup_machine_fdt() in
arch/arm/kernel/devicetree.c which searches through the machine_desc
table and selects the machine_desc which best matches the device tree
data. It determines the best match by looking at the 'compatible'
property in the root device tree node, and comparing it with the
dt_compat list in struct machine_desc.
The 'compatible' property contains a sorted list of strings starting
with the exact name of the machine, followed by an optional list of
boards it is compatible with sorted from most compatible to least. For
example, the root compatible properties for the TI BeagleBoard and its
successor, the BeagleBoard xM board might look like:
compatible = "ti,omap3-beagleboard", "ti,omap3450", "ti,omap3";
compatible = "ti,omap3-beagleboard-xm", "ti,omap3450", "ti,omap3";
Where "ti,omap3-beagleboard-xm" specifies the exact model, it also
claims that it compatible with the OMAP 3450 SoC, and the omap3 family
of SoCs in general. You'll notice that the list is sorted from most
specific (exact board) to least specific (SoC family).
Astute readers might point out that the Beagle xM could also claim
compatibility with the original Beagle board. However, one should be
cautioned about doing so at the board level since there is typically a
high level of change from one board to another, even within the same
product line, and it is hard to nail down exactly what is meant when one
board claims to be compatible with another. For the top level, it is
better to err on the side of caution and not claim one board is
compatible with another. The notable exception would be when one
board is a carrier for another, such as a CPU module attached to a
carrier board.
One more note on compatible values. Any string used in a compatible
property must be documented as to what it indicates. Add
documentation for compatible strings in Documentation/devicetree/bindings.
Again on ARM, for each machine_desc, the kernel looks to see if
any of the dt_compat list entries appear in the compatible property.
If one does, then that machine_desc is a candidate for driving the
machine. After searching the entire table of machine_descs,
setup_machine_fdt() returns the 'most compatible' machine_desc based
on which entry in the compatible property each machine_desc matches
against. If no matching machine_desc is found, then it returns NULL.
The reasoning behind this scheme is the observation that in the majority
of cases, a single machine_desc can support a large number of boards
if they all use the same SoC, or same family of SoCs. However,
invariably there will be some exceptions where a specific board will
require special setup code that is not useful in the generic case.
Special cases could be handled by explicitly checking for the
troublesome board(s) in generic setup code, but doing so very quickly
becomes ugly and/or unmaintainable if it is more than just a couple of
cases.
Instead, the compatible list allows a generic machine_desc to provide
support for a wide common set of boards by specifying "less
compatible" value in the dt_compat list. In the example above,
generic board support can claim compatibility with "ti,omap3" or
"ti,omap3450". If a bug was discovered on the original beagleboard
that required special workaround code during early boot, then a new
machine_desc could be added which implements the workarounds and only
matches on "ti,omap3-beagleboard".
PowerPC uses a slightly different scheme where it calls the .probe()
hook from each machine_desc, and the first one returning TRUE is used.
However, this approach does not take into account the priority of the
compatible list, and probably should be avoided for new architecture
support.
2.3 Runtime configuration
-------------------------
In most cases, a DT will be the sole method of communicating data from
firmware to the kernel, so also gets used to pass in runtime and
configuration data like the kernel parameters string and the location
of an initrd image.
Most of this data is contained in the /chosen node, and when booting
Linux it will look something like this:
chosen {
bootargs = "console=ttyS0,115200 loglevel=8";
initrd-start = <0xc8000000>;
initrd-end = <0xc8200000>;
};
The bootargs property contains the kernel arguments, and the initrd-*
properties define the address and size of an initrd blob. The
chosen node may also optionally contain an arbitrary number of
additional properties for platform-specific configuration data.
During early boot, the architecture setup code calls of_scan_flat_dt()
several times with different helper callbacks to parse device tree
data before paging is setup. The of_scan_flat_dt() code scans through
the device tree and uses the helpers to extract information required
during early boot. Typically the early_init_dt_scan_chosen() helper
is used to parse the chosen node including kernel parameters,
early_init_dt_scan_root() to initialize the DT address space model,
and early_init_dt_scan_memory() to determine the size and
location of usable RAM.
On ARM, the function setup_machine_fdt() is responsible for early
scanning of the device tree after selecting the correct machine_desc
that supports the board.
2.4 Device population
---------------------
After the board has been identified, and after the early configuration data
has been parsed, then kernel initialization can proceed in the normal
way. At some point in this process, unflatten_device_tree() is called
to convert the data into a more efficient runtime representation.
This is also when machine-specific setup hooks will get called, like
the machine_desc .init_early(), .init_irq() and .init_machine() hooks
on ARM. The remainder of this section uses examples from the ARM
implementation, but all architectures will do pretty much the same
thing when using a DT.
As can be guessed by the names, .init_early() is used for any machine-
specific setup that needs to be executed early in the boot process,
and .init_irq() is used to set up interrupt handling. Using a DT
doesn't materially change the behaviour of either of these functions.
If a DT is provided, then both .init_early() and .init_irq() are able
to call any of the DT query functions (of_* in include/linux/of*.h) to
get additional data about the platform.
The most interesting hook in the DT context is .init_machine() which
is primarily responsible for populating the Linux device model with
data about the platform. Historically this has been implemented on
embedded platforms by defining a set of static clock structures,
platform_devices, and other data in the board support .c file, and
registering it en-masse in .init_machine(). When DT is used, then
instead of hard coding static devices for each platform, the list of
devices can be obtained by parsing the DT, and allocating device
structures dynamically.
The simplest case is when .init_machine() is only responsible for
registering a block of platform_devices. A platform_device is a concept
used by Linux for memory or I/O mapped devices which cannot be detected
by hardware, and for 'composite' or 'virtual' devices (more on those
later). While there is no 'platform device' terminology for the DT,
platform devices roughly correspond to device nodes at the root of the
tree and children of simple memory mapped bus nodes.
About now is a good time to lay out an example. Here is part of the
device tree for the NVIDIA Tegra board.
/{
compatible = "nvidia,harmony", "nvidia,tegra20";
#address-cells = <1>;
#size-cells = <1>;
interrupt-parent = <&intc>;
chosen { };
aliases { };
memory {
device_type = "memory";
reg = <0x00000000 0x40000000>;
};
soc {
compatible = "nvidia,tegra20-soc", "simple-bus";
#address-cells = <1>;
#size-cells = <1>;
ranges;
intc: interrupt-controller@50041000 {
compatible = "nvidia,tegra20-gic";
interrupt-controller;
#interrupt-cells = <1>;
reg = <0x50041000 0x1000>, < 0x50040100 0x0100 >;
};
serial@70006300 {
compatible = "nvidia,tegra20-uart";
reg = <0x70006300 0x100>;
interrupts = <122>;
};
i2s1: i2s@70002800 {
compatible = "nvidia,tegra20-i2s";
reg = <0x70002800 0x100>;
interrupts = <77>;
codec = <&wm8903>;
};
i2c@7000c000 {
compatible = "nvidia,tegra20-i2c";
#address-cells = <1>;
#size-cells = <0>;
reg = <0x7000c000 0x100>;
interrupts = <70>;
wm8903: codec@1a {
compatible = "wlf,wm8903";
reg = <0x1a>;
interrupts = <347>;
};
};
};
sound {
compatible = "nvidia,harmony-sound";
i2s-controller = <&i2s1>;
i2s-codec = <&wm8903>;
};
};
At .machine_init() time, Tegra board support code will need to look at
this DT and decide which nodes to create platform_devices for.
However, looking at the tree, it is not immediately obvious what kind
of device each node represents, or even if a node represents a device
at all. The /chosen, /aliases, and /memory nodes are informational
nodes that don't describe devices (although arguably memory could be
considered a device). The children of the /soc node are memory mapped
devices, but the codec@1a is an i2c device, and the sound node
represents not a device, but rather how other devices are connected
together to create the audio subsystem. I know what each device is
because I'm familiar with the board design, but how does the kernel
know what to do with each node?
The trick is that the kernel starts at the root of the tree and looks
for nodes that have a 'compatible' property. First, it is generally
assumed that any node with a 'compatible' property represents a device
of some kind, and second, it can be assumed that any node at the root
of the tree is either directly attached to the processor bus, or is a
miscellaneous system device that cannot be described any other way.
For each of these nodes, Linux allocates and registers a
platform_device, which in turn may get bound to a platform_driver.
Why is using a platform_device for these nodes a safe assumption?
Well, for the way that Linux models devices, just about all bus_types
assume that its devices are children of a bus controller. For
example, each i2c_client is a child of an i2c_master. Each spi_device
is a child of an SPI bus. Similarly for USB, PCI, MDIO, etc. The
same hierarchy is also found in the DT, where I2C device nodes only
ever appear as children of an I2C bus node. Ditto for SPI, MDIO, USB,
etc. The only devices which do not require a specific type of parent
device are platform_devices (and amba_devices, but more on that
later), which will happily live at the base of the Linux /sys/devices
tree. Therefore, if a DT node is at the root of the tree, then it
really probably is best registered as a platform_device.
Linux board support code calls of_platform_populate(NULL, NULL, NULL)
to kick off discovery of devices at the root of the tree. The
parameters are all NULL because when starting from the root of the
tree, there is no need to provide a starting node (the first NULL), a
parent struct device (the last NULL), and we're not using a match
table (yet). For a board that only needs to register devices,
.init_machine() can be completely empty except for the
of_platform_populate() call.
In the Tegra example, this accounts for the /soc and /sound nodes, but
what about the children of the SoC node? Shouldn't they be registered
as platform devices too? For Linux DT support, the generic behaviour
is for child devices to be registered by the parent's device driver at
driver .probe() time. So, an i2c bus device driver will register a
i2c_client for each child node, an SPI bus driver will register
its spi_device children, and similarly for other bus_types.
According to that model, a driver could be written that binds to the
SoC node and simply registers platform_devices for each of its
children. The board support code would allocate and register an SoC
device, a (theoretical) SoC device driver could bind to the SoC device,
and register platform_devices for /soc/interrupt-controller, /soc/serial,
/soc/i2s, and /soc/i2c in its .probe() hook. Easy, right?
Actually, it turns out that registering children of some
platform_devices as more platform_devices is a common pattern, and the
device tree support code reflects that and makes the above example
simpler. The second argument to of_platform_populate() is an
of_device_id table, and any node that matches an entry in that table
will also get its child nodes registered. In the tegra case, the code
can look something like this:
static void __init harmony_init_machine(void)
{
/* ... */
of_platform_populate(NULL, of_default_bus_match_table, NULL, NULL);
}
"simple-bus" is defined in the ePAPR 1.0 specification as a property
meaning a simple memory mapped bus, so the of_platform_populate() code
could be written to just assume simple-bus compatible nodes will
always be traversed. However, we pass it in as an argument so that
board support code can always override the default behaviour.
[Need to add discussion of adding i2c/spi/etc child devices]
Appendix A: AMBA devices
------------------------
ARM Primecells are a certain kind of device attached to the ARM AMBA
bus which include some support for hardware detection and power
management. In Linux, struct amba_device and the amba_bus_type is
used to represent Primecell devices. However, the fiddly bit is that
not all devices on an AMBA bus are Primecells, and for Linux it is
typical for both amba_device and platform_device instances to be
siblings of the same bus segment.
When using the DT, this creates problems for of_platform_populate()
because it must decide whether to register each node as either a
platform_device or an amba_device. This unfortunately complicates the
device creation model a little bit, but the solution turns out not to
be too invasive. If a node is compatible with "arm,amba-primecell", then
of_platform_populate() will register it as an amba_device instead of a
platform_device.

Miscellaneous notes:
Kernel cpu access to a dma-buf buffer object
--------------------------------------------
The motivation to allow cpu access from the kernel to a dma-buf object from the
importers side are:
- fallback operations, e.g. if the devices is connected to a usb bus and the
kernel needs to shuffle the data around first before sending it away.
- full transparency for existing users on the importer side, i.e. userspace
should not notice the difference between a normal object from that subsystem
and an imported one backed by a dma-buf. This is really important for drm
opengl drivers that expect to still use all the existing upload/download
paths.
Access to a dma_buf from the kernel context involves three steps:
1. Prepare access, which invalidate any necessary caches and make the object
available for cpu access.
2. Access the object page-by-page with the dma_buf map apis
3. Finish access, which will flush any necessary cpu caches and free reserved
resources.
1. Prepare access
Before an importer can access a dma_buf object with the cpu from the kernel
context, it needs to notify the exporter of the access that is about to
happen.
Interface:
int dma_buf_begin_cpu_access(struct dma_buf *dmabuf,
size_t start, size_t len,
enum dma_data_direction direction)
This allows the exporter to ensure that the memory is actually available for
cpu access - the exporter might need to allocate or swap-in and pin the
backing storage. The exporter also needs to ensure that cpu access is
coherent for the given range and access direction. The range and access
direction can be used by the exporter to optimize the cache flushing, i.e.
access outside of the range or with a different direction (read instead of
write) might return stale or even bogus data (e.g. when the exporter needs to
copy the data to temporary storage).
This step might fail, e.g. in oom conditions.
2. Accessing the buffer
To support dma_buf objects residing in highmem cpu access is page-based using
an api similar to kmap. Accessing a dma_buf is done in aligned chunks of
PAGE_SIZE size. Before accessing a chunk it needs to be mapped, which returns
a pointer in kernel virtual address space. Afterwards the chunk needs to be
unmapped again. There is no limit on how often a given chunk can be mapped
and unmapped, i.e. the importer does not need to call begin_cpu_access again
before mapping the same chunk again.
Interfaces:
void *dma_buf_kmap(struct dma_buf *, unsigned long);
void dma_buf_kunmap(struct dma_buf *, unsigned long, void *);
There are also atomic variants of these interfaces. Like for kmap they
facilitate non-blocking fast-paths. Neither the importer nor the exporter (in
the callback) is allowed to block when using these.
Interfaces:
void *dma_buf_kmap_atomic(struct dma_buf *, unsigned long);
void dma_buf_kunmap_atomic(struct dma_buf *, unsigned long, void *);
For importers all the restrictions of using kmap apply, like the limited
supply of kmap_atomic slots. Hence an importer shall only hold onto at most 2
atomic dma_buf kmaps at the same time (in any given process context).
dma_buf kmap calls outside of the range specified in begin_cpu_access are
undefined. If the range is not PAGE_SIZE aligned, kmap needs to succeed on
the partial chunks at the beginning and end but may return stale or bogus
data outside of the range (in these partial chunks).
Note that these calls need to always succeed. The exporter needs to complete
any preparations that might fail in begin_cpu_access.
3. Finish access
When the importer is done accessing the range specified in begin_cpu_access,
it needs to announce this to the exporter (to facilitate cache flushing and
unpinning of any pinned resources). The result of of any dma_buf kmap calls
after end_cpu_access is undefined.
Interface:
void dma_buf_end_cpu_access(struct dma_buf *dma_buf,
size_t start, size_t len,
enum dma_data_direction dir);
Miscellaneous notes
-------------------
- Any exporters or users of the dma-buf buffer sharing framework must have
a 'select DMA_SHARED_BUFFER' in their respective Kconfigs.
- In order to avoid fd leaks on exec, the FD_CLOEXEC flag must be set
on the file descriptor. This is not just a resource leak, but a
potential security hole. It could give the newly exec'd application
access to buffers, via the leaked fd, to which it should otherwise
not be permitted access.
The problem with doing this via a separate fcntl() call, versus doing it
atomically when the fd is created, is that this is inherently racy in a
multi-threaded app[3]. The issue is made worse when it is library code
opening/creating the file descriptor, as the application may not even be
aware of the fd's.
To avoid this problem, userspace must have a way to request O_CLOEXEC
flag be set when the dma-buf fd is created. So any API provided by
the exporting driver to create a dmabuf fd must provide a way to let
userspace control setting of O_CLOEXEC flag passed in to dma_buf_fd().

@ -271,9 +271,26 @@ Some platforms may also use knowledge about what GPIOs are active for
power management, such as by powering down unused chip sectors and, more
easily, gating off unused clocks.
Note that requesting a GPIO does NOT cause it to be configured in any
way; it just marks that GPIO as in use. Separate code must handle any
pin setup (e.g. controlling which pin the GPIO uses, pullup/pulldown).
For GPIOs that use pins known to the pinctrl subsystem, that subsystem should
be informed of their use; a gpiolib driver's .request() operation may call
pinctrl_request_gpio(), and a gpiolib driver's .free() operation may call
pinctrl_free_gpio(). The pinctrl subsystem allows a pinctrl_request_gpio()
to succeed concurrently with a pin or pingroup being "owned" by a device for
pin multiplexing.
Any programming of pin multiplexing hardware that is needed to route the
GPIO signal to the appropriate pin should occur within a GPIO driver's
.direction_input() or .direction_output() operations, and occur after any
setup of an output GPIO's value. This allows a glitch-free migration from a
pin's special function to GPIO. This is sometimes required when using a GPIO
to implement a workaround on signals typically driven by a non-GPIO HW block.
Some platforms allow some or all GPIO signals to be routed to different pins.
Similarly, other aspects of the GPIO or pin may need to be configured, such as
pullup/pulldown. Platform software should arrange that any such details are
configured prior to gpio_request() being called for those GPIOs, e.g. using
the pinctrl subsystem's mapping table, so that GPIO users need not be aware
of these details.
Also note that it's your responsibility to have stopped using a GPIO
before you free it.
