Hi all,
ARM System Control and Management Interface(SCMI) is more flexible and
easily extensible than any of the existing interfaces. Many vendors were
involved in the making of this formal specification and is now published[1].
There is a strong trend in the industry to provide micro-controllers in
systems to abstract various power, or other system management tasks.
These controllers usually have similar interfaces, both in terms of the
functions that are provided by them, and in terms of how requests are
communicated to them.
This specification is to standardise and avoid (any further)
fragmentation in the design of such interface by various vendors.
This patch set is intended to get feedback on the design and structure
of the code. This is not complete and not fully tested due to
non-availability of firmware with full feature set at this time.
It currently doesn't support notification, asynchronous/delayed response,
perf/power statistics region and sensor register region to name a few.
I have borrowed some of the ideas of message allocation/management from
TI SCI.
Changes:
v4[6]->v5:
- Rebased to v4.16-rc1
- Updated all the gathered Ack/Reviewed-by tags(which includes
all the drivers using SCMI protocol)
v3[5]->v4[6]:
- Added SCMI protocol bus to enumerate supported protocols as
suggested by Arnd
- Dropped the abstraction to mailbox as it may be optional
v2[4]->v3:
- Addressed various comments received so far(clock, hwmon and
cpufreq drivers along with scmi drivers)
- Hwmon driver now uses core layer to create and manage sysfs
attributes
- Added a shim layer to abstract the mailbox interface to support
any custom adaptation required by the controller driver
- Simple ARM MHU shim layer using newly added abstraction
v1[3]->v2[4]:
- Additional support for polling based DVFS and per protocol
channels
- Dependent drivers(clock, hwmon, cpufreq and power domains)
- Various other review comments and issued found during testing
addressed
- Explicit binding for method dropped as even SMC based method
are adviertised as mailbox
RFC[2]->v1[3]:
- Add generic mailbox binding for shared memory(Rob H)
- Dropped compatibles per protocol(Suggested by Matt S)
- Dropped lot of unnecessary pointer casting(Arnd B)
- Dropped packing of structures(Arnd B)
- Few other changes/additions based initial testing with firmware
providing SCMI interface to OSPM
