* fbdev: powerpc: driver for Freescale 8610 and 5121 DIUYork Sun2008-04-28
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The following features are supported: plane 0 works as a regular frame buffer, can be accessed by /dev/fb0 plane 1 has two AOIs (area of interest), can be accessed by /dev/fb1 and /dev/fb2 plane 2 has two AOIs, can be accessed by /dev/fb3 and /dev/fb4 Special ioctls support AOIs All /dev/fb* can be used as regular frame buffer devices, except hardware change can only be made through /dev/fb0. Changing pixel clock has no effect on other fbs. Limitation of usage of AOIs: AOIs on the same plane can not be horizonally overlapped AOIs have horizonal order, i.e. AOI0 should be always on top of AOI1 AOIs can not beyond phisical display area. Application should check AOI geometry before changing physical resolution on /dev/fb0 required command line parameters to preallocate memory for frame buffer diufb. optional command line parameters to set modes and monitor video=fslfb:[resolution][,bpp][,monitor] Syntax: Resolution xres x yres-bpp@refresh_rate, the -bpp and @refresh_rate are optional eg, 1024x768, 1280x1024, 1280x1024-32, 1280x1024@60, 1280x1024-32@60, 1280x480-32@60 Bpp bpp=32, bpp=24, or bpp=16 Monitor monitor=0, monitor=1, monitor=2 0 is DVI 1 is Single link LVDS 2 is Double link LVDS Note: switching monitor is a board feather, not DIU feather. MPC8610HPCD has three monitor ports to swtich to. MPC5121ADS doesn't have additional monitor port. So switching monirot port for MPC5121ADS has no effect. If compiled as a module, it takes pamameters mode, bpp, monitor with the same syntax above.

* [POWERPC] Xilinx: of_serial support for Xilinx uart 16550.John Linn2008-04-24
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | The Xilinx 16550 uart core is not a standard 16550 because it uses word-based addressing rather than byte-based addressing. With additional properties it is compatible with the open firmware 'ns16550' compatible binding. This code updates the of_serial driver to handle the reg-offset and reg-shift properties to enable this core to be used.

* [POWERPC] Start removing linux,network-index in favour of aliasesDavid Gibson2008-03-26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch alters the bootwrapper for a number of machines (roubhly all 4xx based cuboot or treeboot platforms) to use aliases instead of the linux,network-index hack to work out which MAC address to attach to which ethernet device node. The now obsolete linux,network-index properties are removed from the corresponding device trees. This won't break backwards compatiblity, because in cases where this fixup code is relevant, the device tree is part of the kernel image. The references to linux,network-index are removed from booting-without-of.txt. Not only is it now deprecated, but as a hack applicable only when the device tree blob and fixup code were in the same image, this property never belonged in booting-without-of.txt which describes the interface between the kernel and firmware or bootloaders which produce a device tree. By the time the device tree reaches the kernel, all the MAC addresses must be fully filled in.

* [POWERPC] Xilinx: Update booting-without-of.Stephen Neuendorffer2008-01-09
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This now better describes what the UBoot device tree generator actually does. In particular: 1) Nodes have a label derived from the device name, and a node name derived from a generic version of the device type, e.g. 'ethernet', 'serial', etc. 2) Usage of compound nodes (representing more than one device in the same IP) which actually works. This requires having a valid compatible node, and all the other things that a bus normally has. I've chosen 'xlnx,compound' as the bus name to describe these compound nodes. In addition, I've clarified some of the language relating to how mhs nodes should be represent in the device tree.

* | [POWERPC] Fix cache line vs. block size confusionBenjamin Herrenschmidt2007-11-07
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We had an historical confusion in the kernel between cache line and cache block size. The former is an implementation detail of the L1 cache which can be useful for performance optimisations, the later is the actual size on which the cache control instructions operate, which can be different. For some reason, we had a weird hack reading the right property on powermac and the wrong one on any other 64 bits (32 bits is unaffected as it only uses the cputable for cache block size infos at this stage). This fixes the booting-without-of.txt documentation to mention the right properties, and fixes the 64 bits initialization code to look for the block size first, with a fallback to the line size if the property is missing.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The way the current CPM binding describes available multi-user (a.k.a. dual-ported) RAM doesn't work well when there are multiple free regions, and it doesn't work at all if the region doesn't begin at the start of the muram area (as the hardware needs to be programmed with offsets into this area). The latter situation can happen with SMC UARTs on CPM2, as its parameter RAM is relocatable, u-boot puts it at zero, and the kernel doesn't support moving it. It is now described with a muram node, similar to QE. The current CPM binding is sufficiently recent (i.e. never appeared in an official release) that compatibility with existing device trees is not an issue. The code supporting the new binding is shared between cpm1 and cpm2, rather than remain separated. QE should be able to use this code as well, once minor fixes are made to its device trees.

| * [POWERPC] Document local bus nodes in the device tree, and update cuboot-pq2.Scott Wood2007-10-04
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The localbus node is used to describe devices that are connected via a chip select or similar mechanism. The advantages over placing the devices under the root node are that it can be probed without probing other random things under the root, and that the description of which chip select a given device uses can be used to set up mappings if the firmware failed to do so in a useful manner. cuboot-pq2 is updated to match the binding; previously, it called itself chipselect rather than localbus, and used phandle linkage between the actual bus node and the control node (the current agreement is to simply use the fully-qualified address of the control registers, and ignore the overlap with the IMMR node).

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This introduces a new device binding for the CPM and other devices on these boards. Some of the changes include: 1. Proper namespace scoping for Freescale compatibles and properties. 2. Use compatible rather than things like device_type and model to determine which particular variant of a device is present. 3. Give the drivers the relevant CPM command word directly, rather than requiring it to have a lookup table based on device-id, SCC v. SMC, and CPM version. 4. Specify the CPCR and the usable DPRAM region in the CPM's reg property. Boards that do not require the legacy bindings should select CONFIG_PPC_CPM_NEW_BINDING to enable the of_platform CPM devices. Once all existing boards are converted and tested, the config option can become default y to prevent new boards from using the old model. Once arch/ppc is gone, the config option can be removed altogether.

* | Device tree aware EMAC driverDavid Gibson2007-10-10
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Based on BenH's earlier work, this is a new version of the EMAC driver for the built-in ethernet found on PowerPC 4xx embedded CPUs. The same ASIC is also found in the Axon bridge chip. This new version is designed to work in the arch/powerpc tree, using the device tree to probe the device, rather than the old and ugly arch/ppc OCP layer. This driver is designed to sit alongside the old driver (that lies in drivers/net/ibm_emac and this one in drivers/net/ibm_newemac). The old driver is left in place to support arch/ppc until arch/ppc itself reaches its final demise (not too long now, with luck). This driver still has a number of things that could do with cleaning up, but I think they can be fixed up after merging. Specifically: - Should be adjusted to properly use the dma mapping API. Axon needs this. - Probe logic needs reworking, in conjuction with the general probing code for of_platform devices. The dependencies here between EMAC, MAL, ZMII etc. make this complicated. At present, it usually works, because we initialize and register the sub-drivers before the EMAC driver itself, and (being in driver code) runs after the devices themselves have been instantiated from the device tree.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | subnodes A strict reading of the flattened device tree format defined in booting-without-of.txt does in fact require that all the tags defining properties for a node go before any definitions of subnodes, however it's not particularly emphasised. Although allowing intermingled properties and subnodes would not be ambiguous in meaning, the kernel parser does currently require that properties precede subnodes. Furthermore, keeping this constraint makes life easier for various device tree scanning tools.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch updates booting-without-of.txt to describe version 17 of the flattened device tree format. Version 17 is a small, backwards compatible change from version 16, adding an extra field giving the size of the device tree's structure block. At this time, the kernel has no use for the extra information, however its presence can make life easier for bootloaders or other software manipulating the tree. In addition this patch adds information on the size_dt_strings field of the device tree header, present since version 3 of the flattened tree format, but omitted from the documentation. It also makes changes to consistently refer to versions 16 and 17 as versions 16 and 17 in decimal, rather than version 0x10 which was occasionally used for version 16 previously. Finally, we also add the new field to the definition of the device tree header structure in prom.h Signed-off-by: David Gibson <david@gibson.dropbear.id.au> Acked-by: Jon Loeliger <jdl@freescale.com> Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>

* [POWERPC] Remove interrupt-controller as a property under /chosenStuart Yoder2007-03-07
| | | | | | | | | | Remove interrupt-controller as a valid property under /chosen in the documentation. There is a consensus that an interrupt-controller property does not belong under /chosen. /chosen is specifically for dynamic properties set at runtime.
