1Device-Mapper Logging
2=====================
3The device-mapper logging code is used by some of the device-mapper
4RAID targets to track regions of the disk that are not consistent.
5A region (or portion of the address space) of the disk may be
6inconsistent because a RAID stripe is currently being operated on or
7a machine died while the region was being altered. In the case of
8mirrors, a region would be considered dirty/inconsistent while you
9are writing to it because the writes need to be replicated for all
10the legs of the mirror and may not reach the legs at the same time.
11Once all writes are complete, the region is considered clean again.
12
13There is a generic logging interface that the device-mapper RAID
14implementations use to perform logging operations (see
15dm_dirty_log_type in include/linux/dm-dirty-log.h). Various different
16logging implementations are available and provide different
17capabilities. The list includes:
18
19Type Files
20==== =====
21disk drivers/md/dm-log.c
22core drivers/md/dm-log.c
23userspace drivers/md/dm-log-userspace* include/linux/dm-log-userspace.h
24
25The "disk" log type
26-------------------
27This log implementation commits the log state to disk. This way, the
28logging state survives reboots/crashes.
29
30The "core" log type
31-------------------
32This log implementation keeps the log state in memory. The log state
33will not survive a reboot or crash, but there may be a small boost in
34performance. This method can also be used if no storage device is
35available for storing log state.
36
37The "userspace" log type
38------------------------
39This log type simply provides a way to export the log API to userspace,
40so log implementations can be done there. This is done by forwarding most
41logging requests to userspace, where a daemon receives and processes the
42request.
43
44The structure used for communication between kernel and userspace are
45located in include/linux/dm-log-userspace.h. Due to the frequency,
46diversity, and 2-way communication nature of the exchanges between
47kernel and userspace, 'connector' is used as the interface for
48communication.
49
50There are currently two userspace log implementations that leverage this
51framework - "clustered_disk" and "clustered_core". These implementations
52provide a cluster-coherent log for shared-storage. Device-mapper mirroring
53can be used in a shared-storage environment when the cluster log implementations
54are employed.

1dm-service-time
2===============
3
4dm-service-time is a path selector module for device-mapper targets,
5which selects a path with the shortest estimated service time for
6the incoming I/O.
7
8The service time for each path is estimated by dividing the total size
9of in-flight I/Os on a path with the performance value of the path.
10The performance value is a relative throughput value among all paths
11in a path-group, and it can be specified as a table argument.
12
13The path selector name is 'service-time'.
14
15Table parameters for each path: [<repeat_count> [<relative_throughput>]]
16 <repeat_count>: The number of I/Os to dispatch using the selected
17 path before switching to the next path.
18 If not given, internal default is used. To check
19 the default value, see the activated table.
20 <relative_throughput>: The relative throughput value of the path
21 among all paths in the path-group.
22 The valid range is 0-100.
23 If not given, minimum value '1' is used.
24 If '0' is given, the path isn't selected while
25 other paths having a positive value are available.
26
27Status for each path: <status> <fail-count> <in-flight-size> \
28 <relative_throughput>
29 <status>: 'A' if the path is active, 'F' if the path is failed.
30 <fail-count>: The number of path failures.
31 <in-flight-size>: The size of in-flight I/Os on the path.
32 <relative_throughput>: The relative throughput value of the path
33 among all paths in the path-group.
34
35
36Algorithm
37=========
38
39dm-service-time adds the I/O size to 'in-flight-size' when the I/O is
40dispatched and substracts when completed.
41Basically, dm-service-time selects a path having minimum service time
42which is calculated by:
43
44 ('in-flight-size' + 'size-of-incoming-io') / 'relative_throughput'
45
46However, some optimizations below are used to reduce the calculation
47as much as possible.
48
49 1. If the paths have the same 'relative_throughput', skip
50 the division and just compare the 'in-flight-size'.
51
52 2. If the paths have the same 'in-flight-size', skip the division
53 and just compare the 'relative_throughput'.
54
55 3. If some paths have non-zero 'relative_throughput' and others
56 have zero 'relative_throughput', ignore those paths with zero
57 'relative_throughput'.
58
59If such optimizations can't be applied, calculate service time, and
60compare service time.
61If calculated service time is equal, the path having maximum
62'relative_throughput' may be better. So compare 'relative_throughput'
63then.
64
65
66Examples
67========
68In case that 2 paths (sda and sdb) are used with repeat_count == 128
69and sda has an average throughput 1GB/s and sdb has 4GB/s,
70'relative_throughput' value may be '1' for sda and '4' for sdb.
71
72# echo "0 10 multipath 0 0 1 1 service-time 0 2 2 8:0 128 1 8:16 128 4" \
73 dmsetup create test
74#

79test: 0 10 multipath 2 0 0 0 1 1 E 0 2 2 8:0 A 0 0 1 8:16 A 0 0 4
80
81
82Or '2' for sda and '8' for sdb would be also true.

191Problem: Files copied from sysfs appear empty or incomplete.
192Cause: Due to the way seq_file works, some tools such as cp or tar
193 may not correctly copy files from sysfs.

4 * National Semiconductor LP3944 Fun-light Chip
5 Prefix: 'lp3944'

14Description
15-----------
16The LP3944 is a helper chip that can drive up to 8 leds, with two programmable
17DIM modes; it could even be used as a gpio expander but this driver assumes it
18is used as a led controller.
19
20The DIM modes are used to set _blink_ patterns for leds, the pattern is
21specified supplying two parameters:
22 - period: from 0s to 1.6s
23 - duty cycle: percentage of the period the led is on, from 0 to 100
24
25Setting a led in DIM0 or DIM1 mode makes it blink according to the pattern.
26See the datasheet for details.
27
28LP3944 can be found on Motorola A910 smartphone, where it drives the rgb
29leds, the camera flash light and the lcds power.
30
31
32Notes
33-----
34The chip is used mainly in embedded contexts, so this driver expects it is
35registered using the i2c_board_info mechanism.
36
37To register the chip at address 0x60 on adapter 0, set the platform data
38according to include/linux/leds-lp3944.h, set the i2c board info:
39
40 static struct i2c_board_info __initdata a910_i2c_board_info[] = {
41 {
42 I2C_BOARD_INFO("lp3944", 0x60),
43 .platform_data = &a910_lp3944_leds,
44 },
45 };
46
47and register it in the platform init function

1241 a) PHY nodes 1241VII - Specifying interrupt information for devices
1242
1243 Required properties:
1244
1245 - device_type : Should be "ethernet-phy"
1246 - interrupts : <a b> where a is the interrupt number and b is a
1247 field that represents an encoding of the sense and level
1248 information for the interrupt. This should be encoded based on
1249 the information in section 2) depending on the type of interrupt
1250 controller you have.
1251 - interrupt-parent : the phandle for the interrupt controller that
1252 services interrupts for this device.
1253 - reg : The ID number for the phy, usually a small integer
1254 - linux,phandle : phandle for this node; likely referenced by an
1255 ethernet controller node.
1256
1257
1258 Example:
1259
1260 ethernet-phy@0 {
1261 linux,phandle = <2452000>
1262 interrupt-parent = <40000>;
1263 interrupts = <35 1>;
1264 reg = <0>;
1265 device_type = "ethernet-phy";
1266 };
1267
1268
1269 b) Interrupt controllers
1270
1271 Some SOC devices contain interrupt controllers that are different
1272 from the standard Open PIC specification. The SOC device nodes for
1273 these types of controllers should be specified just like a standard
1274 OpenPIC controller. Sense and level information should be encoded
1275 as specified in section 2) of this chapter for each device that
1276 specifies an interrupt.
1277
1278 Example :
1279
1280 pic@40000 {
1281 linux,phandle = <40000>;
1282 interrupt-controller;
1283 #address-cells = <0>;
1284 reg = <40000 40000>;
1285 compatible = "chrp,open-pic";
1286 device_type = "open-pic";
1287 };
1288
1289 c) 4xx/Axon EMAC ethernet nodes
1290
1291 The EMAC ethernet controller in IBM and AMCC 4xx chips, and also
1292 the Axon bridge. To operate this needs to interact with a ths
1293 special McMAL DMA controller, and sometimes an RGMII or ZMII
1294 interface. In addition to the nodes and properties described
1295 below, the node for the OPB bus on which the EMAC sits must have a
1296 correct clock-frequency property.

1373 Example:

1376 device_type = "network";
1377 compatible = "ibm,emac-440gp", "ibm,emac";
1378 interrupt-parent = <&UIC1>;
1379 interrupts = <1c 4 1d 4>;
1380 reg = <40000800 70>;
1381 local-mac-address = [00 04 AC E3 1B 1E];
1382 mal-device = <&MAL0>;
1383 mal-tx-channel = <0 1>;
1384 mal-rx-channel = <0>;
1385 cell-index = <0>;
1386 max-frame-size = <5dc>;
1387 rx-fifo-size = <1000>;
1388 tx-fifo-size = <800>;
1389 phy-mode = "rmii";
1390 phy-map = <00000001>;
1391 zmii-device = <&ZMII0>;
1392 zmii-channel = <0>;
1393 };
1394
1395 ii) McMAL node
1396
1397 Required properties:
1398 - device_type : "dma-controller"
1399 - compatible : compatible list, containing 2 entries, first is
1400 "ibm,mcmal-CHIP" where CHIP is the host ASIC (like
1401 emac) and the second is either "ibm,mcmal" or

1404 - interrupts : <interrupt mapping for the MAL interrupts sources:
1405 5 sources: tx_eob, rx_eob, serr, txde, rxde>.
1406 For Axon: This is _different_ from the current
1407 firmware. We use the "delayed" interrupts for txeob
1408 and rxeob. Thus we end up with mapping those 5 MPIC
1409 interrupts, all level positive sensitive: 10, 11, 32,
1410 33, 34 (in decimal)
1411 - dcr-reg : < DCR registers range >
1412 - dcr-parent : if needed for dcr-reg

1415
1416 iii) ZMII node

1434 available.
1435 For Axon: 0x0000012a
1436
1437 d) Xilinx IP cores
1438
1439 The Xilinx EDK toolchain ships with a set of IP cores (devices) for use
1440 in Xilinx Spartan and Virtex FPGAs. The devices cover the whole range
1441 of standard device types (network, serial, etc.) and miscellaneous
1442 devices (gpio, LCD, spi, etc). Also, since these devices are
1443 implemented within the fpga fabric every instance of the device can be
1444 synthesised with different options that change the behaviour.
1445
1446 Each IP-core has a set of parameters which the FPGA designer can use to
1447 control how the core is synthesized. Historically, the EDK tool would
1448 extract the device parameters relevant to device drivers and copy them
1449 into an 'xparameters.h' in the form of #define symbols. This tells the
1450 device drivers how the IP cores are configured, but it requres the kernel
1451 to be recompiled every time the FPGA bitstream is resynthesized.
1452
1453 The new approach is to export the parameters into the device tree and
1454 generate a new device tree each time the FPGA bitstream changes. The
1455 parameters which used to be exported as #defines will now become
1456 properties of the device node. In general, device nodes for IP-cores
1457 will take the following form:
1458
1459 (name): (generic-name)@(base-address) {
1460 compatible = "xlnx,(ip-core-name)-(HW_VER)"
1461 [, (list of compatible devices), ...];
1462 reg = <(baseaddr) (size)>;
1463 interrupt-parent = <&interrupt-controller-phandle>;
1464 interrupts = < ... >;
1465 xlnx,(parameter1) = "(string-value)";
1466 xlnx,(parameter2) = <(int-value)>;
1467 };
1468
1469 (generic-name): an open firmware-style name that describes the
1470 generic class of device. Preferably, this is one word, such
1471 as 'serial' or 'ethernet'.
1472 (ip-core-name): the name of the ip block (given after the BEGIN
1473 directive in system.mhs). Should be in lowercase
1474 and all underscores '_' converted to dashes '-'.
1475 (name): is derived from the "PARAMETER INSTANCE" value.
1476 (parameter#): C_* parameters from system.mhs. The C_ prefix is
1477 dropped from the parameter name, the name is converted
1478 to lowercase and all underscore '_' characters are
1479 converted to dashes '-'.
1480 (baseaddr): the baseaddr parameter value (often named C_BASEADDR).
1481 (HW_VER): from the HW_VER parameter.
1482 (size): the address range size (often C_HIGHADDR - C_BASEADDR + 1).
1483
1484 Typically, the compatible list will include the exact IP core version
1485 followed by an older IP core version which implements the same
1486 interface or any other device with the same interface.
1487
1488 'reg', 'interrupt-parent' and 'interrupts' are all optional properties.
1489
1490 For example, the following block from system.mhs:
1491
1492 BEGIN opb_uartlite
1493 PARAMETER INSTANCE = opb_uartlite_0
1494 PARAMETER HW_VER = 1.00.b
1495 PARAMETER C_BAUDRATE = 115200
1496 PARAMETER C_DATA_BITS = 8
1497 PARAMETER C_ODD_PARITY = 0
1498 PARAMETER C_USE_PARITY = 0
1499 PARAMETER C_CLK_FREQ = 50000000
1500 PARAMETER C_BASEADDR = 0xEC100000
1501 PARAMETER C_HIGHADDR = 0xEC10FFFF
1502 BUS_INTERFACE SOPB = opb_7
1503 PORT OPB_Clk = CLK_50MHz
1504 PORT Interrupt = opb_uartlite_0_Interrupt
1505 PORT RX = opb_uartlite_0_RX
1506 PORT TX = opb_uartlite_0_TX
1507 PORT OPB_Rst = sys_bus_reset_0
1508 END
1509
1510 becomes the following device tree node:
1511
1512 opb_uartlite_0: serial@ec100000 {
1513 device_type = "serial";
1514 compatible = "xlnx,opb-uartlite-1.00.b";
1515 reg = <ec100000 10000>;
1516 interrupt-parent = <&opb_intc_0>;
1517 interrupts = <1 0>; // got this from the opb_intc parameters
1518 current-speed = <d#115200>; // standard serial device prop
1519 clock-frequency = <d#50000000>; // standard serial device prop
1520 xlnx,data-bits = <8>;
1521 xlnx,odd-parity = <0>;
1522 xlnx,use-parity = <0>;
1523 };
1524
1525 Some IP cores actually implement 2 or more logical devices. In
1526 this case, the device should still describe the whole IP core with
1527 a single node and add a child node for each logical device. The
1528 ranges property can be used to translate from parent IP-core to the
1529 registers of each device. In addition, the parent node should be
1530 compatible with the bus type 'xlnx,compound', and should contain
1531 #address-cells and #size-cells, as with any other bus. (Note: this
1532 makes the assumption that both logical devices have the same bus
1533 binding. If this is not true, then separate nodes should be used
1534 for each logical device). The 'cell-index' property can be used to
1535 enumerate logical devices within an IP core. For example, the
1536 following is the system.mhs entry for the dual ps2 controller found
1537 on the ml403 reference design.
1538
1539 BEGIN opb_ps2_dual_ref
1540 PARAMETER INSTANCE = opb_ps2_dual_ref_0
1541 PARAMETER HW_VER = 1.00.a
1542 PARAMETER C_BASEADDR = 0xA9000000
1543 PARAMETER C_HIGHADDR = 0xA9001FFF
1544 BUS_INTERFACE SOPB = opb_v20_0
1545 PORT Sys_Intr1 = ps2_1_intr
1546 PORT Sys_Intr2 = ps2_2_intr
1547 PORT Clkin1 = ps2_clk_rx_1
1548 PORT Clkin2 = ps2_clk_rx_2
1549 PORT Clkpd1 = ps2_clk_tx_1
1550 PORT Clkpd2 = ps2_clk_tx_2
1551 PORT Rx1 = ps2_d_rx_1
1552 PORT Rx2 = ps2_d_rx_2
1553 PORT Txpd1 = ps2_d_tx_1
1554 PORT Txpd2 = ps2_d_tx_2
1555 END
1556
1557 It would result in the following device tree nodes:
1558
1559 opb_ps2_dual_ref_0: opb-ps2-dual-ref@a9000000 {
1560 #address-cells = <1>;
1561 #size-cells = <1>;
1562 compatible = "xlnx,compound";
1563 ranges = <0 a9000000 2000>;
1564 // If this device had extra parameters, then they would
1565 // go here.
1566 ps2@0 {
1567 compatible = "xlnx,opb-ps2-dual-ref-1.00.a";
1568 reg = <0 40>;
1569 interrupt-parent = <&opb_intc_0>;
1570 interrupts = <3 0>;
1571 cell-index = <0>;
1572 };
1573 ps2@1000 {
1574 compatible = "xlnx,opb-ps2-dual-ref-1.00.a";
1575 reg = <1000 40>;
1576 interrupt-parent = <&opb_intc_0>;
1577 interrupts = <3 0>;
1578 cell-index = <0>;
1579 };
1580 };
1581
1582 Also, the system.mhs file defines bus attachments from the processor
1583 to the devices. The device tree structure should reflect the bus
1584 attachments. Again an example; this system.mhs fragment:
1585
1586 BEGIN ppc405_virtex4
1587 PARAMETER INSTANCE = ppc405_0
1588 PARAMETER HW_VER = 1.01.a
1589 BUS_INTERFACE DPLB = plb_v34_0
1590 BUS_INTERFACE IPLB = plb_v34_0
1591 END
1592
1593 BEGIN opb_intc
1594 PARAMETER INSTANCE = opb_intc_0
1595 PARAMETER HW_VER = 1.00.c
1596 PARAMETER C_BASEADDR = 0xD1000FC0
1597 PARAMETER C_HIGHADDR = 0xD1000FDF
1598 BUS_INTERFACE SOPB = opb_v20_0
1599 END
1600
1601 BEGIN opb_uart16550
1602 PARAMETER INSTANCE = opb_uart16550_0
1603 PARAMETER HW_VER = 1.00.d
1604 PARAMETER C_BASEADDR = 0xa0000000
1605 PARAMETER C_HIGHADDR = 0xa0001FFF
1606 BUS_INTERFACE SOPB = opb_v20_0
1607 END
1608
1609 BEGIN plb_v34
1610 PARAMETER INSTANCE = plb_v34_0
1611 PARAMETER HW_VER = 1.02.a
1612 END
1613
1614 BEGIN plb_bram_if_cntlr
1615 PARAMETER INSTANCE = plb_bram_if_cntlr_0
1616 PARAMETER HW_VER = 1.00.b
1617 PARAMETER C_BASEADDR = 0xFFFF0000
1618 PARAMETER C_HIGHADDR = 0xFFFFFFFF
1619 BUS_INTERFACE SPLB = plb_v34_0
1620 END
1621
1622 BEGIN plb2opb_bridge
1623 PARAMETER INSTANCE = plb2opb_bridge_0
1624 PARAMETER HW_VER = 1.01.a
1625 PARAMETER C_RNG0_BASEADDR = 0x20000000
1626 PARAMETER C_RNG0_HIGHADDR = 0x3FFFFFFF
1627 PARAMETER C_RNG1_BASEADDR = 0x60000000
1628 PARAMETER C_RNG1_HIGHADDR = 0x7FFFFFFF
1629 PARAMETER C_RNG2_BASEADDR = 0x80000000

1631 PARAMETER C_RNG3_BASEADDR = 0xC0000000
1632 PARAMETER C_RNG3_HIGHADDR = 0xDFFFFFFF
1633 BUS_INTERFACE SPLB = plb_v34_0
1634 BUS_INTERFACE MOPB = opb_v20_0
1635 END
1636
1637 Gives this device tree (some properties removed for clarity):
1638
1639 plb@0 {
1640 #address-cells = <1>;
1641 #size-cells = <1>;
1642 compatible = "xlnx,plb-v34-1.02.a";
1643 device_type = "ibm,plb";
1644 ranges; // 1:1 translation
1645
1646 plb_bram_if_cntrl_0: bram@ffff0000 {
1647 reg = <ffff0000 10000>;
1648 }
1649
1650 opb@20000000 {
1651 #address-cells = <1>;
1652 #size-cells = <1>;
1653 ranges = <20000000 20000000 20000000
1654 60000000 60000000 20000000
1655 80000000 80000000 40000000
1656 c0000000 c0000000 20000000>;
1657
1658 opb_uart16550_0: serial@a0000000 {
1659 reg = <a00000000 2000>;
1660 };
1661
1662 opb_intc_0: interrupt-controller@d1000fc0 {
1663 reg = <d1000fc0 20>;
1664 };
1665 };
1666 };
1667
1668 That covers the general approach to binding xilinx IP cores into the
1669 device tree. The following are bindings for specific devices:
1670
1671 i) Xilinx ML300 Framebuffer
1672
1673 Simple framebuffer device from the ML300 reference design (also on the
1674 ML403 reference design as well as others).
1675
1676 Optional properties:
1677 - resolution = <xres yres> : pixel resolution of framebuffer. Some
1678 implementations use a different resolution.
1679 Default is <d#640 d#480>
1680 - virt-resolution = <xvirt yvirt> : Size of framebuffer in memory.
1681 Default is <d#1024 d#480>.
1682 - rotate-display (empty) : rotate display 180 degrees.
1683
1684 ii) Xilinx SystemACE
1685
1686 The Xilinx SystemACE device is used to program FPGAs from an FPGA
1687 bitstream stored on a CF card. It can also be used as a generic CF
1688 interface device.
1689
1690 Optional properties:
1691 - 8-bit (empty) : Set this property for SystemACE in 8 bit mode
1692
1693 iii) Xilinx EMAC and Xilinx TEMAC
1694
1695 Xilinx Ethernet devices. In addition to general xilinx properties
1696 listed above, nodes for these devices should include a phy-handle
1697 property, and may include other common network device properties
1698 like local-mac-address.
1699
1700 iv) Xilinx Uartlite
1701
1702 Xilinx uartlite devices are simple fixed speed serial ports.
1703
1704 Required properties:
1705 - current-speed : Baud rate of uartlite
1706
1707 v) Xilinx hwicap
1708
1709 Xilinx hwicap devices provide access to the configuration logic
1710 of the FPGA through the Internal Configuration Access Port
1711 (ICAP). The ICAP enables partial reconfiguration of the FPGA,
1712 readback of the configuration information, and some control over
1713 'warm boots' of the FPGA fabric.
1714
1715 Required properties:
1716 - xlnx,family : The family of the FPGA, necessary since the
1717 capabilities of the underlying ICAP hardware
1718 differ between different families. May be
1719 'virtex2p', 'virtex4', or 'virtex5'.
1720
1721 vi) Xilinx Uart 16550
1722
1723 Xilinx UART 16550 devices are very similar to the NS16550 but with
1724 different register spacing and an offset from the base address.
1725
1726 Required properties:
1727 - clock-frequency : Frequency of the clock input
1728 - reg-offset : A value of 3 is required
1729 - reg-shift : A value of 2 is required
1730
1731 e) USB EHCI controllers
1732
1733 Required properties:
1734 - compatible : should be "usb-ehci".
1735 - reg : should contain at least address and length of the standard EHCI
1736 register set for the device. Optional platform-dependent registers
1737 (debug-port or other) can be also specified here, but only after
1738 definition of standard EHCI registers.
1739 - interrupts : one EHCI interrupt should be described here.
1740 If device registers are implemented in big endian mode, the device
1741 node should have "big-endian-regs" property.
1742 If controller implementation operates with big endian descriptors,
1743 "big-endian-desc" property should be specified.
1744 If both big endian registers and descriptors are used by the controller
1745 implementation, "big-endian" property can be specified instead of having
1746 both "big-endian-regs" and "big-endian-desc".
1747
1748 Example (Sequoia 440EPx):
1749 ehci@e0000300 {
1750 compatible = "ibm,usb-ehci-440epx", "usb-ehci";
1751 interrupt-parent = <&UIC0>;
1752 interrupts = <1a 4>;
1753 reg = <0 e0000300 90 0 e0000390 70>;
1754 big-endian;
1755 };
1756
1757 f) MDIO on GPIOs
1758
1759 Currently defined compatibles:
1760 - virtual,gpio-mdio
1761
1762 MDC and MDIO lines connected to GPIO controllers are listed in the
1763 gpios property as described in section VIII.1 in the following order:
1764
1765 MDC, MDIO.
1766
1767 Example:

1777 g) SPI (Serial Peripheral Interface) busses
1778
1779 SPI busses can be described with a node for the SPI master device
1780 and a set of child nodes for each SPI slave on the bus. For this
1781 discussion, it is assumed that the system's SPI controller is in
1782 SPI master mode. This binding does not describe SPI controllers
1783 in slave mode.
1784
1785 The SPI master node requires the following properties:
1786 - #address-cells - number of cells required to define a chip select
1787 address on the SPI bus.
1788 - #size-cells - should be zero.
1789 - compatible - name of SPI bus controller following generic names
1790 recommended practice.
1791 No other properties are required in the SPI bus node. It is assumed
1792 that a driver for an SPI bus device will understand that it is an SPI bus.
1793 However, the binding does not attempt to define the specific method for
1794 assigning chip select numbers. Since SPI chip select configuration is
1795 flexible and non-standardized, it is left out of this binding with the
1796 assumption that board specific platform code will be used to manage
1797 chip selects. Individual drivers can define additional properties to
1798 support describing the chip select layout.
1799
1800 SPI slave nodes must be children of the SPI master node and can
1801 contain the following properties.
1802 - reg - (required) chip select address of device.
1803 - compatible - (required) name of SPI device following generic names
1804 recommended practice
1805 - spi-max-frequency - (required) Maximum SPI clocking speed of device in Hz
1806 - spi-cpol - (optional) Empty property indicating device requires
1807 inverse clock polarity (CPOL) mode
1808 - spi-cpha - (optional) Empty property indicating device requires
1809 shifted clock phase (CPHA) mode
1810 - spi-cs-high - (optional) Empty property indicating device requires
1811 chip select active high

1835VII - Marvell Discovery mv64[345]6x System Controller chips
1836===========================================================
1837
1838The Marvell mv64[345]60 series of system controller chips contain
1839many of the peripherals needed to implement a complete computer
1840system. In this section, we define device tree nodes to describe
1841the system controller chip itself and each of the peripherals
1842which it contains. Compatible string values for each node are
1843prefixed with the string "marvell,", for Marvell Technology Group Ltd.
1844
18451) The /system-controller node
1846
1847 This node is used to represent the system-controller and must be
1848 present when the system uses a system controller chip. The top-level
1849 system-controller node contains information that is global to all
1850 devices within the system controller chip. The node name begins
1851 with "system-controller" followed by the unit address, which is
1852 the base address of the memory-mapped register set for the system
1853 controller chip.
1854
1855 Required properties:
1856
1857 - ranges : Describes the translation of system controller addresses
1858 for memory mapped registers.
1859 - clock-frequency: Contains the main clock frequency for the system
1860 controller chip.
1861 - reg : This property defines the address and size of the
1862 memory-mapped registers contained within the system controller
1863 chip. The address specified in the "reg" property should match
1864 the unit address of the system-controller node.
1865 - #address-cells : Address representation for system controller
1866 devices. This field represents the number of cells needed to
1867 represent the address of the memory-mapped registers of devices
1868 within the system controller chip.
1869 - #size-cells : Size representation for for the memory-mapped
1870 registers within the system controller chip.
1871 - #interrupt-cells : Defines the width of cells used to represent
1872 interrupts.
1873
1874 Optional properties:
1875
1876 - model : The specific model of the system controller chip. Such
1877 as, "mv64360", "mv64460", or "mv64560".
1878 - compatible : A string identifying the compatibility identifiers
1879 of the system controller chip.
1880
1881 The system-controller node contains child nodes for each system
1882 controller device that the platform uses. Nodes should not be created
1883 for devices which exist on the system controller chip but are not used
1884
1885 Example Marvell Discovery mv64360 system-controller node:
1886
1887 system-controller@f1000000 { /* Marvell Discovery mv64360 */
1888 #address-cells = <1>;
1889 #size-cells = <1>;
1890 model = "mv64360"; /* Default */
1891 compatible = "marvell,mv64360";
1892 clock-frequency = <133333333>;
1893 reg = <0xf1000000 0x10000>;
1894 virtual-reg = <0xf1000000>;
1895 ranges = <0x88000000 0x88000000 0x1000000 /* PCI 0 I/O Space */
1896 0x80000000 0x80000000 0x8000000 /* PCI 0 MEM Space */
1897 0xa0000000 0xa0000000 0x4000000 /* User FLASH */
1898 0x00000000 0xf1000000 0x0010000 /* Bridge's regs */

1903
19042) Child nodes of /system-controller
1905
1906 a) Marvell Discovery MDIO bus
1907
1908 The MDIO is a bus to which the PHY devices are connected. For each
1909 device that exists on this bus, a child node should be created. See
1910 the definition of the PHY node below for an example of how to define
1911 a PHY.
1912
1913 Required properties:

1932
1933 b) Marvell Discovery ethernet controller
1934
1935 The Discover ethernet controller is described with two levels
1936 of nodes. The first level describes an ethernet silicon block
1937 and the second level describes up to 3 ethernet nodes within
1938 that block. The reason for the multiple levels is that the
1939 registers for the node are interleaved within a single set
1940 of registers. The "ethernet-block" level describes the
1941 shared register set, and the "ethernet" nodes describe ethernet
1942 port-specific properties.

2446-----------------
2447
2448Nodes that makes use of GPIOs should define them using `gpios' property,
2449format of which is: <&gpio-controller1-phandle gpio1-specifier
2450 &gpio-controller2-phandle gpio2-specifier
2451 0 /* holes are permitted, means no GPIO 3 */

2455Note that gpio-specifier length is controller dependent.
2456
2457gpio-specifier may encode: bank, pin position inside the bank,
2458whether pin is open-drain and whether pin is logically inverted.
2459
2460Example of the node using GPIOs:
2461
2462 node {
2463 gpios = <&qe_pio_e 18 0>;
2464 };
2465
2466In this example gpio-specifier is "18 0" and encodes GPIO pin number,
2467and empty GPIO flags as accepted by the "qe_pio_e" gpio-controller.

1 4xx/Axon EMAC ethernet nodes
2
3 The EMAC ethernet controller in IBM and AMCC 4xx chips, and also
4 the Axon bridge. To operate this needs to interact with a ths
5 special McMAL DMA controller, and sometimes an RGMII or ZMII
6 interface. In addition to the nodes and properties described
7 below, the node for the OPB bus on which the EMAC sits must have a
8 correct clock-frequency property.
9
10 i) The EMAC node itself
11
12 Required properties:
13 - device_type : "network"

15 - compatible : compatible list, contains 2 entries, first is
16 "ibm,emac-CHIP" where CHIP is the host ASIC (440gx,
17 405gp, Axon) and second is either "ibm,emac" or
18 "ibm,emac4". For Axon, thus, we have: "ibm,emac-axon",
19 "ibm,emac4"
20 - interrupts : <interrupt mapping for EMAC IRQ and WOL IRQ>
21 - interrupt-parent : optional, if needed for interrupt mapping
22 - reg : <registers mapping>

120 and rxeob. Thus we end up with mapping those 5 MPIC
121 interrupts, all level positive sensitive: 10, 11, 32,
122 33, 34 (in decimal)
123 - dcr-reg : < DCR registers range >

1Marvell Discovery mv64[345]6x System Controller chips
2===========================================================
3
4The Marvell mv64[345]60 series of system controller chips contain
5many of the peripherals needed to implement a complete computer
6system. In this section, we define device tree nodes to describe
7the system controller chip itself and each of the peripherals
8which it contains. Compatible string values for each node are
9prefixed with the string "marvell,", for Marvell Technology Group Ltd.
10
111) The /system-controller node
12
13 This node is used to represent the system-controller and must be
14 present when the system uses a system controller chip. The top-level
15 system-controller node contains information that is global to all
16 devices within the system controller chip. The node name begins
17 with "system-controller" followed by the unit address, which is
18 the base address of the memory-mapped register set for the system
19 controller chip.
20
21 Required properties:
22
23 - ranges : Describes the translation of system controller addresses
24 for memory mapped registers.
25 - clock-frequency: Contains the main clock frequency for the system
26 controller chip.
27 - reg : This property defines the address and size of the
28 memory-mapped registers contained within the system controller
29 chip. The address specified in the "reg" property should match
30 the unit address of the system-controller node.
31 - #address-cells : Address representation for system controller
32 devices. This field represents the number of cells needed to
33 represent the address of the memory-mapped registers of devices
34 within the system controller chip.
35 - #size-cells : Size representation for for the memory-mapped
36 registers within the system controller chip.
37 - #interrupt-cells : Defines the width of cells used to represent
38 interrupts.
39
40 Optional properties:
41
42 - model : The specific model of the system controller chip. Such
43 as, "mv64360", "mv64460", or "mv64560".
44 - compatible : A string identifying the compatibility identifiers
45 of the system controller chip.
46
47 The system-controller node contains child nodes for each system
48 controller device that the platform uses. Nodes should not be created
49 for devices which exist on the system controller chip but are not used
50
51 Example Marvell Discovery mv64360 system-controller node:
52
53 system-controller@f1000000 { /* Marvell Discovery mv64360 */
54 #address-cells = <1>;
55 #size-cells = <1>;
56 model = "mv64360"; /* Default */
57 compatible = "marvell,mv64360";
58 clock-frequency = <133333333>;
59 reg = <0xf1000000 0x10000>;
60 virtual-reg = <0xf1000000>;
61 ranges = <0x88000000 0x88000000 0x1000000 /* PCI 0 I/O Space */
62 0x80000000 0x80000000 0x8000000 /* PCI 0 MEM Space */
63 0xa0000000 0xa0000000 0x4000000 /* User FLASH */
64 0x00000000 0xf1000000 0x0010000 /* Bridge's regs */

67 [ child node definitions... ]
68 }
69
702) Child nodes of /system-controller
71
72 a) Marvell Discovery MDIO bus
73
74 The MDIO is a bus to which the PHY devices are connected. For each
75 device that exists on this bus, a child node should be created. See
76 the definition of the PHY node below for an example of how to define
77 a PHY.
78
79 Required properties:
80 - #address-cells : Should be <1>
81 - #size-cells : Should be <0>
82 - device_type : Should be "mdio"
83 - compatible : Should be "marvell,mv64360-mdio"
84
85 Example:
86
87 mdio {
88 #address-cells = <1>;
89 #size-cells = <0>;
90 device_type = "mdio";
91 compatible = "marvell,mv64360-mdio";
92
93 ethernet-phy@0 {
94 ......
95 };
96 };
97
98
99 b) Marvell Discovery ethernet controller
100
101 The Discover ethernet controller is described with two levels
102 of nodes. The first level describes an ethernet silicon block
103 and the second level describes up to 3 ethernet nodes within
104 that block. The reason for the multiple levels is that the
105 registers for the node are interleaved within a single set
106 of registers. The "ethernet-block" level describes the
107 shared register set, and the "ethernet" nodes describe ethernet
108 port-specific properties.
109
110 Ethernet block node
111
112 Required properties:
113 - #address-cells : <1>
114 - #size-cells : <0>
115 - compatible : "marvell,mv64360-eth-block"
116 - reg : Offset and length of the register set for this block

1SPI (Serial Peripheral Interface) busses
2
3SPI busses can be described with a node for the SPI master device
4and a set of child nodes for each SPI slave on the bus. For this
5discussion, it is assumed that the system's SPI controller is in
6SPI master mode. This binding does not describe SPI controllers
7in slave mode.
8
9The SPI master node requires the following properties:
10- #address-cells - number of cells required to define a chip select
11 address on the SPI bus.
12- #size-cells - should be zero.
13- compatible - name of SPI bus controller following generic names
14 recommended practice.
15No other properties are required in the SPI bus node. It is assumed
16that a driver for an SPI bus device will understand that it is an SPI bus.
17However, the binding does not attempt to define the specific method for
18assigning chip select numbers. Since SPI chip select configuration is
19flexible and non-standardized, it is left out of this binding with the
20assumption that board specific platform code will be used to manage
21chip selects. Individual drivers can define additional properties to
22support describing the chip select layout.
23
24SPI slave nodes must be children of the SPI master node and can
25contain the following properties.
26- reg - (required) chip select address of device.
27- compatible - (required) name of SPI device following generic names
28 recommended practice
29- spi-max-frequency - (required) Maximum SPI clocking speed of device in Hz
30- spi-cpol - (optional) Empty property indicating device requires
31 inverse clock polarity (CPOL) mode
32- spi-cpha - (optional) Empty property indicating device requires
33 shifted clock phase (CPHA) mode
34- spi-cs-high - (optional) Empty property indicating device requires
35 chip select active high

1 d) Xilinx IP cores
2
3 The Xilinx EDK toolchain ships with a set of IP cores (devices) for use
4 in Xilinx Spartan and Virtex FPGAs. The devices cover the whole range
5 of standard device types (network, serial, etc.) and miscellaneous
6 devices (gpio, LCD, spi, etc). Also, since these devices are
7 implemented within the fpga fabric every instance of the device can be
8 synthesised with different options that change the behaviour.
9
10 Each IP-core has a set of parameters which the FPGA designer can use to
11 control how the core is synthesized. Historically, the EDK tool would
12 extract the device parameters relevant to device drivers and copy them
13 into an 'xparameters.h' in the form of #define symbols. This tells the
14 device drivers how the IP cores are configured, but it requres the kernel
15 to be recompiled every time the FPGA bitstream is resynthesized.
16
17 The new approach is to export the parameters into the device tree and
18 generate a new device tree each time the FPGA bitstream changes. The
19 parameters which used to be exported as #defines will now become
20 properties of the device node. In general, device nodes for IP-cores
21 will take the following form:
22
23 (name): (generic-name)@(base-address) {
24 compatible = "xlnx,(ip-core-name)-(HW_VER)"
25 [, (list of compatible devices), ...];
26 reg = <(baseaddr) (size)>;
27 interrupt-parent = <&interrupt-controller-phandle>;
28 interrupts = < ... >;
29 xlnx,(parameter1) = "(string-value)";
30 xlnx,(parameter2) = <(int-value)>;
31 };
32
33 (generic-name): an open firmware-style name that describes the
34 generic class of device. Preferably, this is one word, such
35 as 'serial' or 'ethernet'.
36 (ip-core-name): the name of the ip block (given after the BEGIN
37 directive in system.mhs). Should be in lowercase
38 and all underscores '_' converted to dashes '-'.
39 (name): is derived from the "PARAMETER INSTANCE" value.
40 (parameter#): C_* parameters from system.mhs. The C_ prefix is
41 dropped from the parameter name, the name is converted
42 to lowercase and all underscore '_' characters are
43 converted to dashes '-'.
44 (baseaddr): the baseaddr parameter value (often named C_BASEADDR).
45 (HW_VER): from the HW_VER parameter.
46 (size): the address range size (often C_HIGHADDR - C_BASEADDR + 1).
47
48 Typically, the compatible list will include the exact IP core version
49 followed by an older IP core version which implements the same
50 interface or any other device with the same interface.
51
52 'reg', 'interrupt-parent' and 'interrupts' are all optional properties.
53
54 For example, the following block from system.mhs:
55
56 BEGIN opb_uartlite
57 PARAMETER INSTANCE = opb_uartlite_0
58 PARAMETER HW_VER = 1.00.b
59 PARAMETER C_BAUDRATE = 115200
60 PARAMETER C_DATA_BITS = 8
61 PARAMETER C_ODD_PARITY = 0
62 PARAMETER C_USE_PARITY = 0
63 PARAMETER C_CLK_FREQ = 50000000
64 PARAMETER C_BASEADDR = 0xEC100000
65 PARAMETER C_HIGHADDR = 0xEC10FFFF
66 BUS_INTERFACE SOPB = opb_7
67 PORT OPB_Clk = CLK_50MHz
68 PORT Interrupt = opb_uartlite_0_Interrupt
69 PORT RX = opb_uartlite_0_RX
70 PORT TX = opb_uartlite_0_TX
71 PORT OPB_Rst = sys_bus_reset_0
72 END
73
74 becomes the following device tree node:
75
76 opb_uartlite_0: serial@ec100000 {
77 device_type = "serial";
78 compatible = "xlnx,opb-uartlite-1.00.b";
79 reg = <ec100000 10000>;
80 interrupt-parent = <&opb_intc_0>;
81 interrupts = <1 0>; // got this from the opb_intc parameters
82 current-speed = <d#115200>; // standard serial device prop
83 clock-frequency = <d#50000000>; // standard serial device prop
84 xlnx,data-bits = <8>;
85 xlnx,odd-parity = <0>;
86 xlnx,use-parity = <0>;
87 };
88
89 Some IP cores actually implement 2 or more logical devices. In
90 this case, the device should still describe the whole IP core with
91 a single node and add a child node for each logical device. The
92 ranges property can be used to translate from parent IP-core to the
93 registers of each device. In addition, the parent node should be
94 compatible with the bus type 'xlnx,compound', and should contain
95 #address-cells and #size-cells, as with any other bus. (Note: this
96 makes the assumption that both logical devices have the same bus
97 binding. If this is not true, then separate nodes should be used
98 for each logical device). The 'cell-index' property can be used to
99 enumerate logical devices within an IP core. For example, the
100 following is the system.mhs entry for the dual ps2 controller found
101 on the ml403 reference design.
102
103 BEGIN opb_ps2_dual_ref
104 PARAMETER INSTANCE = opb_ps2_dual_ref_0
105 PARAMETER HW_VER = 1.00.a
106 PARAMETER C_BASEADDR = 0xA9000000
107 PARAMETER C_HIGHADDR = 0xA9001FFF
108 BUS_INTERFACE SOPB = opb_v20_0
109 PORT Sys_Intr1 = ps2_1_intr
110 PORT Sys_Intr2 = ps2_2_intr
111 PORT Clkin1 = ps2_clk_rx_1
112 PORT Clkin2 = ps2_clk_rx_2
113 PORT Clkpd1 = ps2_clk_tx_1
114 PORT Clkpd2 = ps2_clk_tx_2
115 PORT Rx1 = ps2_d_rx_1
116 PORT Rx2 = ps2_d_rx_2
117 PORT Txpd1 = ps2_d_tx_1
118 PORT Txpd2 = ps2_d_tx_2
119 END
120
121 It would result in the following device tree nodes:
122
123 opb_ps2_dual_ref_0: opb-ps2-dual-ref@a9000000 {
124 #address-cells = <1>;
125 #size-cells = <1>;
126 compatible = "xlnx,compound";
127 ranges = <0 a9000000 2000>;
128 // If this device had extra parameters, then they would
129 // go here.
130 ps2@0 {
131 compatible = "xlnx,opb-ps2-dual-ref-1.00.a";
132 reg = <0 40>;
133 interrupt-parent = <&opb_intc_0>;
134 interrupts = <3 0>;
135 cell-index = <0>;
136 };
137 ps2@1000 {
138 compatible = "xlnx,opb-ps2-dual-ref-1.00.a";
139 reg = <1000 40>;
140 interrupt-parent = <&opb_intc_0>;
141 interrupts = <3 0>;
142 cell-index = <0>;
143 };
144 };
145
146 Also, the system.mhs file defines bus attachments from the processor
147 to the devices. The device tree structure should reflect the bus
148 attachments. Again an example; this system.mhs fragment:
149
150 BEGIN ppc405_virtex4

229 };
230 };
231
232 That covers the general approach to binding xilinx IP cores into the
233 device tree. The following are bindings for specific devices:
234
235 i) Xilinx ML300 Framebuffer
236
237 Simple framebuffer device from the ML300 reference design (also on the
238 ML403 reference design as well as others).
239
240 Optional properties:
241 - resolution = <xres yres> : pixel resolution of framebuffer. Some
242 implementations use a different resolution.
243 Default is <d#640 d#480>
244 - virt-resolution = <xvirt yvirt> : Size of framebuffer in memory.
245 Default is <d#1024 d#480>.
246 - rotate-display (empty) : rotate display 180 degrees.
247
248 ii) Xilinx SystemACE
249
250 The Xilinx SystemACE device is used to program FPGAs from an FPGA
251 bitstream stored on a CF card. It can also be used as a generic CF
252 interface device.
253
254 Optional properties:
255 - 8-bit (empty) : Set this property for SystemACE in 8 bit mode
256
257 iii) Xilinx EMAC and Xilinx TEMAC
258
259 Xilinx Ethernet devices. In addition to general xilinx properties
260 listed above, nodes for these devices should include a phy-handle
261 property, and may include other common network device properties
262 like local-mac-address.
263
264 iv) Xilinx Uartlite
265
266 Xilinx uartlite devices are simple fixed speed serial ports.
267
268 Required properties:
269 - current-speed : Baud rate of uartlite
270
271 v) Xilinx hwicap
272
273 Xilinx hwicap devices provide access to the configuration logic
274 of the FPGA through the Internal Configuration Access Port
275 (ICAP). The ICAP enables partial reconfiguration of the FPGA,
276 readback of the configuration information, and some control over
277 'warm boots' of the FPGA fabric.
278
279 Required properties:
280 - xlnx,family : The family of the FPGA, necessary since the
281 capabilities of the underlying ICAP hardware
282 differ between different families. May be
283 'virtex2p', 'virtex4', or 'virtex5'.
284
285 vi) Xilinx Uart 16550
286
287 Xilinx UART 16550 devices are very similar to the NS16550 but with
288 different register spacing and an offset from the base address.
289
290 Required properties:
291 - clock-frequency : Frequency of the clock input
292 - reg-offset : A value of 3 is required
293 - reg-shift : A value of 2 is required
294
