  • The complexity of the boot sequence of UniPhier SoC family is
    a PITA due to the following hardware limitations:

    [1] No dedicated on-chip SRAM
    SoCs in general have small SRAM, on which a tiny firmware or a boot
    loader can run before SDRAM is initialized. As UniPhier SoCs do not
    have any dedicated SRAM accessible from CPUs, the locked outer cache
    is used instead. Due to the ARM specification, to have access to
    the outer cache, the MMU must be enabled. This is done for all CPU
    cores by the program hard-wired in the boot ROM. The boot ROM code
    loads a small amount of program (this is usually SPL of U-Boot) from
    a non-volatile device onto the locked outer cache, and the primary
    CPU jumps to it. The secondary CPUs stay in the boot ROM until they
    are kicked by the primary CPU.

    [2] CPUs can not directly jump to SDRAM address space
    As mentioned above, the MMU is enable for all the CPUs with the page
    table hard-wired in the boot ROM. Unfortunately, the page table only
    has minimal sets of valid sections; all the sections of SDRAM address
    space are zero-filled. That means all the CPUs, including secondary
    ones, can not jump directly to SDRAM address space. So, the primary
    CPU must bring up secondary CPUs to accessible address mapped onto
    the outer cache, then again kick them to SDRAM address space.

    Before this commit, this complex task was done with help of a boot
    loader (U-Boot); U-Boot SPL brings up the secondary CPUs to the entry
    of U-Boot SPL and they stay there until they are kicked by Linux.
    This is not nice because a boot loader must put the secondary CPUs
    into a certain state expected by the kernel. It makes difficult to
    port another boot loader because the boot loader and the kernel must
    work in sync to wake up the secondary CPUs.

    This commit reworks the SMP operations so that they do not rely on
    particular boot loader implementation; the SMP operations (platsmp.c)
    put trampoline code (headsmp.S) on a locked way of the outer cache.
    The secondary CPUs jump from the boot ROM to secondary_entry via the
    trampoline code. The boot loader no longer needs to take care of SMP.

  • Update the documentation about:
    1. Usage of PMU_SPARE2 register.
    Bootloaders on Exynos542x-based boards often use the register
    PMU_SPARE2 (0x908) in the same way as on Exynos3250: as a indicator
    the secondary CPU was booted on. The bootloader will set this value
    to non-zero, after sucessfull power up of secondary CPU. In the same
    time this booted CPU will stuck (spin) waiting for software reset.
    2. Exynos542x entry address for secondary CPU boot up after system
    suspend (with MCPM enabled and in non-secure mode).

  • Do the initial setting of the pmic wrap interrupt before requesting the interrupt.
    This fixes the corner-case where the pmic is initialized by the bootloader, but
    not the pmic watchdog.

    Add support for active wakeup to the scpsys. This allows to keep the power of
    a scpsys domain during suspend state.

    With version v4.3 new subsystem clocks are added to the clock dirver. In late
    init the kernel turns off all unused clocks. This can provoke a hang if
    the kernel tries to access the venc and venc_lt power domain registers.
    Add the necessary parent clocks for this power domains to
    the scpsys so that no random hang happens.

    The bootloader of mt6589, mt8135 and mt1827 does not turn on the arm-arch-timer.
    As there is no opensource bootloader in the near future for this architectures
    we enable the arch timer at kernel boot. We need the arch timer for SMP boot.

    Add support for SMP on mt6589, mt8127 and mt8135.

  • The R8 is a new Allwinner SoC based on the A13. While both are very
    similar, there's still a few differences. Introduce a new compatible to
    deal with them.

    In order to have a consistent naming, instead of mentioning the Allwinner
    A series as the machine name, switch to sun4i/sun5i like what is done for
    the other families.

  • In kernel late init, it turns off all unused clocks, which
    needs to access subsystem registers such as VENC and VENC_LT.

    Accessing MT8173 VENC registers needs two top clocks, mm_sel and
    venc_sel. Accessing VENC_LT registers needs mm_sel and venclt_sel.
    So we need to keep these clocks on before accessing their registers.

    This patch keeps venc_sel / venclt_sel clock on when
    VENC / VENC_LT's power is on, to prevent system hang up while
    accessing its registeres.

  • Currently firmware file name is included in the DTS. This is not scalable
    as user has to change the DTS if they need upgrade to a new firmware.
    Instead, add the firmware file name in the driver itself. As long as there
    is no API change, new firmware upgrade is easy and require no driver
    change. User is expected to copy the firmware image to the file system
    and add a sym link to the new firmware for doing an upgrade. Driver add
    a array of firmware file names to search for the available firmware blobs.
    This scheme also prepare the driver for future changes to API if ever
    happens. In such case it is assumed that driver needs to change to
    accommodate the new firmware and new firmware file name will get added to
    the array.

    Also update the DT document to remove the firmware attribute and add
    description about firmware in the driver documentation.
