2256 l) Xilinx IP cores
2257
2258 The Xilinx EDK toolchain ships with a set of IP cores (devices) for use
2259 in Xilinx Spartan and Virtex FPGAs. The devices cover the whole range
2260 of standard device types (network, serial, etc.) and miscellanious
2261 devices (gpio, LCD, spi, etc). Also, since these devices are
2262 implemented within the fpga fabric every instance of the device can be
2263 synthesised with different options that change the behaviour.
2264
2265 Each IP-core has a set of parameters which the FPGA designer can use to
2266 control how the core is synthesized. Historically, the EDK tool would
2267 extract the device parameters relevant to device drivers and copy them
2268 into an 'xparameters.h' in the form of #define symbols. This tells the
2269 device drivers how the IP cores are configured, but it requres the kernel
2270 to be recompiled every time the FPGA bitstream is resynthesized.
2271
2272 The new approach is to export the parameters into the device tree and
2273 generate a new device tree each time the FPGA bitstream changes. The
2274 parameters which used to be exported as #defines will now become
2275 properties of the device node. In general, device nodes for IP-cores
2276 will take the following form:
2277
2278 (name)@(base-address) {
2279 compatible = "xlnx,(ip-core-name)-(HW_VER)"
2280 [, (list of compatible devices), ...];
2281 reg = <(baseaddr) (size)>;
2282 interrupt-parent = <&interrupt-controller-phandle>;
2283 interrupts = < ... >;
2284 xlnx,(parameter1) = "(string-value)";
2285 xlnx,(parameter2) = <(int-value)>;
2286 };
2287
2288 (ip-core-name): the name of the ip block (given after the BEGIN
2289 directive in system.mhs). Should be in lowercase
2290 and all underscores '_' converted to dashes '-'.
2291 (name): is derived from the "PARAMETER INSTANCE" value.
2292 (parameter#): C_* parameters from system.mhs. The C_ prefix is
2293 dropped from the parameter name, the name is converted
2294 to lowercase and all underscore '_' characters are
2295 converted to dashes '-'.
2296 (baseaddr): the C_BASEADDR parameter.
2297 (HW_VER): from the HW_VER parameter.
2298 (size): equals C_HIGHADDR - C_BASEADDR + 1
2299
2300 Typically, the compatible list will include the exact IP core version
2301 followed by an older IP core version which implements the same
2302 interface or any other device with the same interface.
2303
2304 'reg', 'interrupt-parent' and 'interrupts' are all optional properties.
2305
2306 For example, the following block from system.mhs:
2307
2308 BEGIN opb_uartlite
2309 PARAMETER INSTANCE = opb_uartlite_0
2310 PARAMETER HW_VER = 1.00.b
2311 PARAMETER C_BAUDRATE = 115200
2312 PARAMETER C_DATA_BITS = 8
2313 PARAMETER C_ODD_PARITY = 0
2314 PARAMETER C_USE_PARITY = 0
2315 PARAMETER C_CLK_FREQ = 50000000
2316 PARAMETER C_BASEADDR = 0xEC100000
2317 PARAMETER C_HIGHADDR = 0xEC10FFFF
2318 BUS_INTERFACE SOPB = opb_7
2319 PORT OPB_Clk = CLK_50MHz
2320 PORT Interrupt = opb_uartlite_0_Interrupt
2321 PORT RX = opb_uartlite_0_RX
2322 PORT TX = opb_uartlite_0_TX
2323 PORT OPB_Rst = sys_bus_reset_0
2324 END
2325
2326 becomes the following device tree node:
2327
2328 opb-uartlite-0@ec100000 {
2329 device_type = "serial";
2330 compatible = "xlnx,opb-uartlite-1.00.b";
2331 reg = <ec100000 10000>;
2332 interrupt-parent = <&opb-intc>;
2333 interrupts = <1 0>; // got this from the opb_intc parameters
2334 current-speed = <d#115200>; // standard serial device prop
2335 clock-frequency = <d#50000000>; // standard serial device prop
2336 xlnx,data-bits = <8>;
2337 xlnx,odd-parity = <0>;
2338 xlnx,use-parity = <0>;
2339 };
2340
2341 Some IP cores actually implement 2 or more logical devices. In this case,
2342 the device should still describe the whole IP core with a single node
2343 and add a child node for each logical device. The ranges property can
2344 be used to translate from parent IP-core to the registers of each device.
2345 (Note: this makes the assumption that both logical devices have the same
2346 bus binding. If this is not true, then separate nodes should be used for
2347 each logical device). The 'cell-index' property can be used to enumerate
2348 logical devices within an IP core. For example, the following is the
2349 system.mhs entry for the dual ps2 controller found on the ml403 reference
2350 design.
2351
2352 BEGIN opb_ps2_dual_ref
2353 PARAMETER INSTANCE = opb_ps2_dual_ref_0
2354 PARAMETER HW_VER = 1.00.a
2355 PARAMETER C_BASEADDR = 0xA9000000
2356 PARAMETER C_HIGHADDR = 0xA9001FFF
2357 BUS_INTERFACE SOPB = opb_v20_0
2358 PORT Sys_Intr1 = ps2_1_intr
2359 PORT Sys_Intr2 = ps2_2_intr
2360 PORT Clkin1 = ps2_clk_rx_1
2361 PORT Clkin2 = ps2_clk_rx_2
2362 PORT Clkpd1 = ps2_clk_tx_1
2363 PORT Clkpd2 = ps2_clk_tx_2
2364 PORT Rx1 = ps2_d_rx_1
2365 PORT Rx2 = ps2_d_rx_2
2366 PORT Txpd1 = ps2_d_tx_1
2367 PORT Txpd2 = ps2_d_tx_2
2368 END
2369
2370 It would result in the following device tree nodes:
2371
2372 opb_ps2_dual_ref_0@a9000000 {
2373 ranges = <0 a9000000 2000>;
2374 // If this device had extra parameters, then they would
2375 // go here.
2376 ps2@0 {
2377 compatible = "xlnx,opb-ps2-dual-ref-1.00.a";
2378 reg = <0 40>;
2379 interrupt-parent = <&opb-intc>;
2380 interrupts = <3 0>;
2381 cell-index = <0>;
2382 };
2383 ps2@1000 {
2384 compatible = "xlnx,opb-ps2-dual-ref-1.00.a";
2385 reg = <1000 40>;
2386 interrupt-parent = <&opb-intc>;
2387 interrupts = <3 0>;
2388 cell-index = <0>;
2389 };
2390 };
2391
2392 Also, the system.mhs file defines bus attachments from the processor
2393 to the devices. The device tree structure should reflect the bus
2394 attachments. Again an example; this system.mhs fragment:
2395

2445 END
2446
2447 Gives this device tree (some properties removed for clarity):
2448
2449 plb-v34-0 {
2450 #address-cells = <1>;
2451 #size-cells = <1>;

2472 reg = <d1000fc0 20>;
2473 };
2474 };
2475 };
2476
2477 That covers the general approach to binding xilinx IP cores into the
2478 device tree. The following are bindings for specific devices:
2479
2480 i) Xilinx ML300 Framebuffer
2481
2482 Simple framebuffer device from the ML300 reference design (also on the
2483 ML403 reference design as well as others).
2484
2485 Optional properties:
2486 - resolution = <xres yres> : pixel resolution of framebuffer. Some
2487 implementations use a different resolution.
2488 Default is <d#640 d#480>
2489 - virt-resolution = <xvirt yvirt> : Size of framebuffer in memory.
2490 Default is <d#1024 d#480>.
2491 - rotate-display (empty) : rotate display 180 degrees.
2492
2493 ii) Xilinx SystemACE
2494
2495 The Xilinx SystemACE device is used to program FPGAs from an FPGA
2496 bitstream stored on a CF card. It can also be used as a generic CF
2497 interface device.
2498
2499 Optional properties:
2500 - 8-bit (empty) : Set this property for SystemACE in 8 bit mode
2501
2502 iii) Xilinx EMAC and Xilinx TEMAC
2503
2504 Xilinx Ethernet devices. In addition to general xilinx properties
2505 listed above, nodes for these devices should include a phy-handle
2506 property, and may include other common network device properties
2507 like local-mac-address.
2508
2509 iv) Xilinx Uartlite
2510
2511 Xilinx uartlite devices are simple fixed speed serial ports.
2512
2513 Requred properties:
2514 - current-speed : Baud rate of uartlite
2515
2245 More devices will be defined as this spec matures. 2516 More devices will be defined as this spec matures.
