Pawel Moll 3b9334ac83 mfd: vexpress: Convert custom func API to regmap
Components of the Versatile Express platform (configuration
microcontrollers on motherboard and daughterboards in particular)
talk to each other over a custom configuration bus. They
provide miscellaneous functions (from clock generator control
to energy sensors) which are represented as platform devices
(and Device Tree nodes). The transactions on the bus can
be generated by different "bridges" in the system, some
of which are universal for the whole platform (for the price
of high transfer latencies), others restricted to a subsystem
(but much faster).

Until now drivers for such functions were using custom "func"
API, which is being replaced in this patch by regmap calls.
This required:

* a rework (and move to drivers/bus directory, as suggested
  by Samuel and Arnd) of the config bus core, which is much
  simpler now and uses device model infrastructure (class)
  to keep track of the bridges; non-DT case (soon to be
  retired anyway) is simply covered by a special device
  registration function

* the new config-bus driver also takes over device population,
  so there is no need for special matching table for
  of_platform_populate nor "simple-bus" hack in the arm64
  model dtsi file (relevant bindings documentation has
  been updated); this allows all the vexpress devices
  fit into normal device model, making it possible
  to remove plenty of early inits and other hacks in
  the near future

* adaptation of the syscfg bridge implementation in the
  sysreg driver, again making it much simpler; there is
  a special case of the "energy" function spanning two
  registers, where they should be both defined in the tree
  now, but backward compatibility is maintained in the code

* modification of the relevant drivers:

  * hwmon - just a straight-forward API change
  * power/reset driver - API change
  * regulator - API change plus error handling
    simplification
  * osc clock driver - this one required larger rework
    in order to turn in into a standard platform driver

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.
Root node
---------
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>;
CPU nodes
---------
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>;
};
};
Configuration infrastructure
----------------------------
The platform has an elaborated configuration system, consisting of
microcontrollers residing on the mother- and daughterboards known
as Motherboard/Daughterboard Configuration Controller (MCC and DCC).
The controllers are responsible for the platform initialization
(reset generation, flash programming, FPGA bitfiles loading etc.)
but also control clock generators, voltage regulators, gather
environmental data like temperature, power consumption etc. Even
the video output switch (FPGA) is controlled that way.
The controllers are not mapped into normal memory address space
and must be accessed through bridges - other devices capable
of generating transactions on the configuration bus.
The nodes describing configuration controllers must define
the following properties:
- compatible value:
compatible = "arm,vexpress,config-bus";
- bridge phandle:
arm,vexpress,config-bridge = <phandle>;
and children describing available functions.
Platform topology
-----------------
As Versatile Express can be configured in number of physically
different setups, the device tree should describe platform topology.
Root node and main motherboard node must define the following
property, describing physical location of the children nodes:
- site number:
arm,vexpress,site = <number>;
where 0 means motherboard, 1 or 2 are daugtherboard sites,
0xf means "master" site (site containing main CPU tile)
- when daughterboards are stacked on one site, their position
in the stack be be described with:
arm,vexpress,position = <number>;
- when describing tiles consisting more than one DCC, its number
can be described with:
arm,vexpress,dcc = <number>;
Any of the numbers above defaults to zero if not defined in
the node or any of its parent.
Motherboard
-----------
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
The tile description should define a "smb" node, describing the
Static Memory Bus between the tile and motherboard. It must define
the following properties:
- "simple-bus" compatible value (to ensure creation of the children)
compatible = "simple-bus";
- mapping of the SMB CS/offset addresses into main address space:
#address-cells = <2>;
#size-cells = <1>;
ranges = <...>;
- interrupts mapping:
#interrupt-cells = <1>;
interrupt-map-mask = <0 0 63>;
interrupt-map = <...>;
