This patchset aims to support the legacy SCPI firmware implementation that was delivered as early technology preview for the JUNO platform.
Finally a stable, maintained and public implementation for the SCPI protocol has been upstreamed part of the JUNO support and it is the recommended way of implementing SCP communication on ARMv8 platforms. The Amlogic GXBB platform is using this legacy protocol, as the RK3368 & RK3399 platforms. Only the GXBB example is provided here, but it's unclear if other Amlogic ARMv8 based SoCs uses this legacy procotol. In order to support the legacy protocol : - Move the scpi_get_ops to a thin registry layer - Change the arm_scpi.c to use the registry layer - Add a separate config option to build the registry layer - Add the legacy SCPI driver based on the new implementation - For example, add the Amlogic GXBB MHU and SCPI DT cpufreq & sensors nodes Initial RFC discution tread can be found at https://lkml.org/lkml/2016/5/26/111 Neil Armstrong (9): mailbox: Add Amlogic Meson Message-Handling-Unit dt-bindings: mailbox: Add Amlogic Meson MHU Bindings ARM64: dts: meson-gxbb: Add Meson MHU Node firmware: Add a SCPI registry to handle multiple implementations firmware: scpi: Switch arm_scpi to use new registry firmware: Add legacy SCPI protocol driver dt-bindings: arm: Update arm,scpi bindings with Meson GXBB SCPI ARM64: dts: meson-gxbb: Add SRAM node ARM64: dts: meson-gxbb: Add SCPI with cpufreq & sensors Nodes Documentation/devicetree/bindings/arm/arm,scpi.txt | 8 +- .../devicetree/bindings/mailbox/meson-mhu.txt | 33 ++ arch/arm64/boot/dts/amlogic/meson-gxbb.dtsi | 53 ++ drivers/firmware/Kconfig | 24 + drivers/firmware/Makefile | 2 + drivers/firmware/arm_scpi.c | 14 +- drivers/firmware/legacy_scpi.c | 644 +++++++++++++++++++++ drivers/firmware/scpi.c | 94 +++ drivers/mailbox/Makefile | 2 + drivers/mailbox/meson_mhu.c | 199 +++++++ include/linux/scpi_protocol.h | 15 +- 11 files changed, 1075 insertions(+), 13 deletions(-) create mode 100644 Documentation/devicetree/bindings/mailbox/meson-mhu.txt create mode 100644 drivers/firmware/legacy_scpi.c create mode 100644 drivers/firmware/scpi.c create mode 100644 drivers/mailbox/meson_mhu.c -- 2.7.0
