1GPIO controllers on MPC8xxx SoCs
2
3This is for the non-QE/CPM/GUTs GPIO controllers as found on
48349, 8572, 8610 and compatible.
5
6Every GPIO controller node must have #gpio-cells property defined,
7this information will be used to translate gpio-specifiers.
8
9Required properties:
10- compatible : "fsl,<CHIP>-gpio" followed by "fsl,mpc8349-gpio" for
11 83xx, "fsl,mpc8572-gpio" for 85xx and "fsl,mpc8610-gpio" for 86xx.
12- #gpio-cells : Should be two. The first cell is the pin number and the
13 second cell is used to specify optional parameters (currently unused).
14 - interrupts : Interrupt mapping for GPIO IRQ (currently unused).
15 - interrupt-parent : Phandle for the interrupt controller that
16 services interrupts for this device.
17- gpio-controller : Marks the port as GPIO controller.
18
19Example of gpio-controller nodes for a MPC8347 SoC:
20
21 gpio1: gpio-controller@c00 {
22 #gpio-cells = <2>;
23 compatible = "fsl,mpc8347-gpio", "fsl,mpc8349-gpio";
24 reg = <0xc00 0x100>;
25 interrupts = <74 0x8>;
26 interrupt-parent = <&ipic>;
27 gpio-controller;
28 };
29
30 gpio2: gpio-controller@d00 {
31 #gpio-cells = <2>;
32 compatible = "fsl,mpc8347-gpio", "fsl,mpc8349-gpio";
33 reg = <0xd00 0x100>;
34 interrupts = <75 0x8>;
35 interrupt-parent = <&ipic>;
36 gpio-controller;
37 };

129Note on DMA channel compatible properties: The compatible property must say
130"fsl,elo-dma-channel" or "fsl,eloplus-dma-channel" to be used by the Elo DMA
131driver (fsldma). Any DMA channel used by fsldma cannot be used by another
132DMA driver, such as the SSI sound drivers for the MPC8610. Therefore, any DMA
133channel that should be used for another driver should not use
134"fsl,elo-dma-channel" or "fsl,eloplus-dma-channel". For the SSI drivers, for
135example, the compatible property should be "fsl,ssi-dma-channel". See ssi.txt

46Notes on fsl,playback-dma and fsl,capture-dma:
47
48On SOCs that have an SSI, specific DMA channels are hard-wired for playback
49and capture. On the MPC8610, for example, SSI1 must use DMA channel 0 for
50playback and DMA channel 1 for capture. SSI2 must use DMA channel 2 for
51playback and DMA channel 3 for capture. The developer can choose which
52DMA controller to use, but the channels themselves are hard-wired. The
53purpose of these two properties is to represent this hardware design.
54
55The device tree nodes for the DMA channels that are referenced by
56"fsl,playback-dma" and "fsl,capture-dma" must be marked as compatible with
57"fsl,ssi-dma-channel". The SOC-specific compatible string (e.g.
58"fsl,mpc8610-dma-channel") can remain. If these nodes are left as
59"fsl,elo-dma-channel" or "fsl,eloplus-dma-channel", then the generic Elo DMA
60drivers (fsldma) will attempt to use them, and it will conflict with the
61sound drivers.

1 Information about /proc/ppc_htab
2=====================================================================
3
4This document and the related code was written by me (Cort Dougan), please
5email me (cort@fsmlabs.com) if you have questions, comments or corrections.

7Last Change: 2.16.98
8
9This entry in the proc directory is readable by all users but only
10writable by root.
11
12The ppc_htab interface is a user level way of accessing the
13performance monitoring registers as well as providing information
14about the PTE hash table.
15
161. Reading
17
18 Reading this file will give you information about the memory management
19 hash table that serves as an extended tlb for page translation on the
20 powerpc. It will also give you information about performance measurement
21 specific to the cpu that you are using.
22
23 Explanation of the 604 Performance Monitoring Fields:
24 MMCR0 - the current value of the MMCR0 register
25 PMC1
26 PMC2 - the value of the performance counters and a
27 description of what events they are counting
28 which are based on MMCR0 bit settings.
29 Explanation of the PTE Hash Table fields:
30
31 Size - hash table size in Kb.
32 Buckets - number of buckets in the table.
33 Address - the virtual kernel address of the hash table base.
34 Entries - the number of ptes that can be stored in the hash table.
35 User/Kernel - how many pte's are in use by the kernel or user at that time.
36 Overflows - How many of the entries are in their secondary hash location.
37 Percent full - ratio of free pte entries to in use entries.
38 Reloads - Count of how many hash table misses have occurred
39 that were fixed with a reload from the linux tables.
40 Should always be 0 on 603 based machines.
41 Non-error Misses - Count of how many hash table misses have occurred
42 that were completed with the creation of a pte in the linux
43 tables with a call to do_page_fault().
44 Error Misses - Number of misses due to errors such as bad address
45 and permission violations. This includes kernel access of
46 bad user addresses that are fixed up by the trap handler.
47
48 Note that calculation of the data displayed from /proc/ppc_htab takes
49 a long time and spends a great deal of time in the kernel. It would
50 be quite hard on performance to read this file constantly. In time
51 there may be a counter in the kernel that allows successive reads from
52 this file only after a given amount of time has passed to reduce the
53 possibility of a user slowing the system by reading this file.
54
552. Writing
56
57 Writing to the ppc_htab allows you to change the characteristics of
58 the powerpc PTE hash table and setup performance monitoring.
59
60 Resizing the PTE hash table is not enabled right now due to many
61 complications with moving the hash table, rehashing the entries
62 and many many SMP issues that would have to be dealt with.
63
64 Write options to ppc_htab:
65
66 - To set the size of the hash table to 64Kb:
67
68 echo 'size 64' > /proc/ppc_htab
69
70 The size must be a multiple of 64 and must be greater than or equal to
71 64.
72
73 - To turn off performance monitoring:
74
75 echo 'off' > /proc/ppc_htab
76
77 - To reset the counters without changing what they're counting:
78
79 echo 'reset' > /proc/ppc_htab
80
81 Note that counting will continue after the reset if it is enabled.
82
83 - To count only events in user mode or only in kernel mode:
84
85 echo 'user' > /proc/ppc_htab
86 ...or...
87 echo 'kernel' > /proc/ppc_htab
88
89 Note that these two options are exclusive of one another and the
90 lack of either of these options counts user and kernel.
91 Using 'reset' and 'off' reset these flags.
92
93 - The 604 has 2 performance counters which can each count events from
94 a specific set of events. These sets are disjoint so it is not
95 possible to count _any_ combination of 2 events. One event can
96 be counted by PMC1 and one by PMC2.
97
98 To start counting a particular event use:
99
100 echo 'event' > /proc/ppc_htab
101
102 and choose from these events:
103
104 PMC1
105 ----
106 'ic miss' - instruction cache misses
107 'dtlb' - data tlb misses (not hash table misses)
108
109 PMC2
110 ----
111 'dc miss' - data cache misses
112 'itlb' - instruction tlb misses (not hash table misses)
113 'load miss time' - cycles to complete a load miss
114
1153. Bugs
116
117 The PMC1 and PMC2 counters can overflow and give no indication of that
118 in /proc/ppc_htab.

131. State of Supported Hardware
14
15 PowerSurge Architecture - tested on UMAX s900, Apple 9600
16 The second processor on this machine boots up just fine and
17 enters its idle loop. Hopefully a completely working SMP kernel
18 on this machine will be done shortly.
19
20 The code makes the assumption of only two processors. The changes
21 necessary to work with any number would not be overly difficult but
22 I don't have any machines with >2 processors so it's not high on my
23 list of priorities. If anyone else would like do to the work email
24 me and I can point out the places that need changed. If you have >2
25 processors and don't want to add support yourself let me know and I
26 can take a look into it.
27
28 BeBox
29 BeBox support hasn't been added to the 2.1.X kernels from 2.0.X
30 but work is being done and SMP support for BeBox is in the works.
31
32 CHRP
33 CHRP SMP works and is fairly solid. It's been tested on the IBM F50
34 with 4 processors for quite some time now.
