Enable the Imagination PowerVR Rogue GPU (BXE-2-32) on the SpacemiT K1
SoC for the OrangePi RV2 board.
This series depends on:
- Yixun Lan's power domain series [1], which provides the genpd-based
GPU power domain driver required for proper power sequencing.
- Baihui Liang's dt-bindings patch [2], which adds the spacemit,k1-gpu
compatible string to the img,powervr-rogue binding.
The GPU firmware is not yet available upstream. A copy can be found
at [3].
With this series applied on top of [1] and [2], the full GPU bring-up
path works end-to-end on hardware:
- Power domain: GPU power island on/off via APMU
- Clock: GPU clock enabled/gated through CCU
- Reset: GPU reset line deasserted
- Firmware: PowerVR RISC-V firmware loads and signals ready
- DMA: dma-ranges correctly maps CPU-to-GPU physical addresses
- DRM: kernel exposes /dev/dri/card0 and /dev/dri/renderD128
- IRQ: GPU interrupt registered, firmware watchdog running
Userspace rendering requires Mesa's PowerVR Vulkan driver
(imagination-experimental).
