+Revision Information
+====================
+
+ May 18, 2005: Rev 0.1 - Initial draft, no chapter III yet.
+
+ May 19, 2005: Rev 0.2 - Add chapter III and bits & pieces here or
+ clarifies the fact that a lot of things are
+ optional, the kernel only requires a very
+ small device tree, though it is encouraged
+ to provide an as complete one as possible.
+
+ May 24, 2005: Rev 0.3 - Precise that DT block has to be in RAM
+ - Misc fixes
+ - Define version 3 and new format version 16
+ for the DT block (version 16 needs kernel
+ patches, will be fwd separately).
+ String block now has a size, and full path
+ is replaced by unit name for more
+ compactness.
+ linux,phandle is made optional, only nodes
+ that are referenced by other nodes need it.
+ "name" property is now automatically
+ deduced from the unit name
+
+ June 1, 2005: Rev 0.4 - Correct confusion between OF_DT_END and
+ OF_DT_END_NODE in structure definition.
+ - Change version 16 format to always align
+ property data to 4 bytes. Since tokens are
+ already aligned, that means no specific
+ required alignment between property size
+ and property data. The old style variable
+ alignment would make it impossible to do
+ "simple" insertion of properties using
+ memmove (thanks Milton for
+ noticing). Updated kernel patch as well
+ - Correct a few more alignment constraints
+ - Add a chapter about the device-tree
+ compiler and the textural representation of
+ the tree that can be "compiled" by dtc.
+
+ November 21, 2005: Rev 0.5
+ - Additions/generalizations for 32-bit
+ - Changed to reflect the new arch/powerpc
+ structure
+ - Added chapter VI
+
+
+ ToDo:
+ - Add some definitions of interrupt tree (simple/complex)
+ - Add some definitions for PCI host bridges
+ - Add some common address format examples
+ - Add definitions for standard properties and "compatible"
+ names for cells that are not already defined by the existing
+ OF spec.
+ - Compare FSL SOC use of PCI to standard and make sure no new
+ node definition required.
+ - Add more information about node definitions for SOC devices
+ that currently have no standard, like the FSL CPM.
+
+
+I - Introduction
+================
+
+During the recent development of the Linux/ppc64 kernel, and more
+specifically, the addition of new platform types outside of the old
+IBM pSeries/iSeries pair, it was decided to enforce some strict rules
+regarding the kernel entry and bootloader <-> kernel interfaces, in
+order to avoid the degeneration that had become the ppc32 kernel entry
+point and the way a new platform should be added to the kernel. The
+legacy iSeries platform breaks those rules as it predates this scheme,
+but no new board support will be accepted in the main tree that
+doesn't follows them properly. In addition, since the advent of the
+arch/powerpc merged architecture for ppc32 and ppc64, new 32-bit
+platforms and 32-bit platforms which move into arch/powerpc will be
+required to use these rules as well.
+
+The main requirement that will be defined in more detail below is
+the presence of a device-tree whose format is defined after Open
+Firmware specification. However, in order to make life easier
+to embedded board vendors, the kernel doesn't require the device-tree
+to represent every device in the system and only requires some nodes
+and properties to be present. This will be described in detail in
+section III, but, for example, the kernel does not require you to
+create a node for every PCI device in the system. It is a requirement
+to have a node for PCI host bridges in order to provide interrupt
+routing informations and memory/IO ranges, among others. It is also
+recommended to define nodes for on chip devices and other busses that
+don't specifically fit in an existing OF specification. This creates a
+great flexibility in the way the kernel can then probe those and match
+drivers to device, without having to hard code all sorts of tables. It
+also makes it more flexible for board vendors to do minor hardware
+upgrades without significantly impacting the kernel code or cluttering
+it with special cases.
+
+
+1) Entry point for arch/powerpc
+-------------------------------
+
+ There is one and one single entry point to the kernel, at the start
+ of the kernel image. That entry point supports two calling
+ conventions:
+
+ a) Boot from Open Firmware. If your firmware is compatible
+ with Open Firmware (IEEE 1275) or provides an OF compatible
+ client interface API (support for "interpret" callback of
+ forth words isn't required), you can enter the kernel with:
+
+ r5 : OF callback pointer as defined by IEEE 1275
+ bindings to powerpc. Only the 32-bit client interface
+ is currently supported
+
+ r3, r4 : address & length of an initrd if any or 0
+
+ The MMU is either on or off; the kernel will run the
+ trampoline located in arch/powerpc/kernel/prom_init.c to
+ extract the device-tree and other information from open
+ firmware and build a flattened device-tree as described
+ in b). prom_init() will then re-enter the kernel using
+ the second method. This trampoline code runs in the
+ context of the firmware, which is supposed to handle all
+ exceptions during that time.
+
+ b) Direct entry with a flattened device-tree block. This entry
+ point is called by a) after the OF trampoline and can also be
+ called directly by a bootloader that does not support the Open
+ Firmware client interface. It is also used by "kexec" to
+ implement "hot" booting of a new kernel from a previous
+ running one. This method is what I will describe in more
+ details in this document, as method a) is simply standard Open
+ Firmware, and thus should be implemented according to the
+ various standard documents defining it and its binding to the
+ PowerPC platform. The entry point definition then becomes:
+
+ r3 : physical pointer to the device-tree block
+ (defined in chapter II) in RAM
+
+ r4 : physical pointer to the kernel itself. This is
+ used by the assembly code to properly disable the MMU
+ in case you are entering the kernel with MMU enabled
+ and a non-1:1 mapping.
+
+ r5 : NULL (as to differentiate with method a)
+
+ Note about SMP entry: Either your firmware puts your other
+ CPUs in some sleep loop or spin loop in ROM where you can get
+ them out via a soft reset or some other means, in which case
+ you don't need to care, or you'll have to enter the kernel
+ with all CPUs. The way to do that with method b) will be
+ described in a later revision of this document.
+
+
+2) Board support
+----------------
+
+64-bit kernels:
+
+ Board supports (platforms) are not exclusive config options. An
+ arbitrary set of board supports can be built in a single kernel
+ image. The kernel will "know" what set of functions to use for a
+ given platform based on the content of the device-tree. Thus, you
+ should:
+
+ a) add your platform support as a _boolean_ option in
+ arch/powerpc/Kconfig, following the example of PPC_PSERIES,
+ PPC_PMAC and PPC_MAPLE. The later is probably a good
+ example of a board support to start from.
+
+ b) create your main platform file as
+ "arch/powerpc/platforms/myplatform/myboard_setup.c" and add it
+ to the Makefile under the condition of your CONFIG_
+ option. This file will define a structure of type "ppc_md"
+ containing the various callbacks that the generic code will
+ use to get to your platform specific code
+
+ c) Add a reference to your "ppc_md" structure in the
+ "machines" table in arch/powerpc/kernel/setup_64.c if you are
+ a 64-bit platform.
+
+ d) request and get assigned a platform number (see PLATFORM_*
+ constants in arch/powerpc/include/asm/processor.h
+
+32-bit embedded kernels:
+
+ Currently, board support is essentially an exclusive config option.
+ The kernel is configured for a single platform. Part of the reason
+ for this is to keep kernels on embedded systems small and efficient;
+ part of this is due to the fact the code is already that way. In the
+ future, a kernel may support multiple platforms, but only if the
+ platforms feature the same core architecture. A single kernel build
+ cannot support both configurations with Book E and configurations
+ with classic Powerpc architectures.
+
+ 32-bit embedded platforms that are moved into arch/powerpc using a
+ flattened device tree should adopt the merged tree practice of
+ setting ppc_md up dynamically, even though the kernel is currently
+ built with support for only a single platform at a time. This allows
+ unification of the setup code, and will make it easier to go to a
+ multiple-platform-support model in the future.
+
+NOTE: I believe the above will be true once Ben's done with the merge
+of the boot sequences.... someone speak up if this is wrong!
+
+ To add a 32-bit embedded platform support, follow the instructions
+ for 64-bit platforms above, with the exception that the Kconfig
+ option should be set up such that the kernel builds exclusively for
+ the platform selected. The processor type for the platform should
+ enable another config option to select the specific board
+ supported.
+
+NOTE: If Ben doesn't merge the setup files, may need to change this to
+point to setup_32.c
+
+
+ I will describe later the boot process and various callbacks that
+ your platform should implement.
+
+
+II - The DT block format
+========================
+
+
+This chapter defines the actual format of the flattened device-tree
+passed to the kernel. The actual content of it and kernel requirements
+are described later. You can find example of code manipulating that
+format in various places, including arch/powerpc/kernel/prom_init.c
+which will generate a flattened device-tree from the Open Firmware
+representation, or the fs2dt utility which is part of the kexec tools
+which will generate one from a filesystem representation. It is
+expected that a bootloader like uboot provides a bit more support,
+that will be discussed later as well.
+
+Note: The block has to be in main memory. It has to be accessible in
+both real mode and virtual mode with no mapping other than main
+memory. If you are writing a simple flash bootloader, it should copy
+the block to RAM before passing it to the kernel.
+
+
+1) Header
+---------
+
+ The kernel is entered with r3 pointing to an area of memory that is
+ roughly described in arch/powerpc/include/asm/prom.h by the structure
+ boot_param_header:
+
+struct boot_param_header {
+ u32 magic; /* magic word OF_DT_HEADER */
+ u32 totalsize; /* total size of DT block */
+ u32 off_dt_struct; /* offset to structure */
+ u32 off_dt_strings; /* offset to strings */
+ u32 off_mem_rsvmap; /* offset to memory reserve map
+ */
+ u32 version; /* format version */
+ u32 last_comp_version; /* last compatible version */
+
+ /* version 2 fields below */
+ u32 boot_cpuid_phys; /* Which physical CPU id we're
+ booting on */
+ /* version 3 fields below */
+ u32 size_dt_strings; /* size of the strings block */
+
+ /* version 17 fields below */
+ u32 size_dt_struct; /* size of the DT structure block */
+};
+
+ Along with the constants:
+
+/* Definitions used by the flattened device tree */
+#define OF_DT_HEADER 0xd00dfeed /* 4: version,
+ 4: total size */
+#define OF_DT_BEGIN_NODE 0x1 /* Start node: full name
+ */
+#define OF_DT_END_NODE 0x2 /* End node */
+#define OF_DT_PROP 0x3 /* Property: name off,
+ size, content */
+#define OF_DT_END 0x9
+
+ All values in this header are in big endian format, the various
+ fields in this header are defined more precisely below. All
+ "offset" values are in bytes from the start of the header; that is
+ from the value of r3.
+
+ - magic
+
+ This is a magic value that "marks" the beginning of the
+ device-tree block header. It contains the value 0xd00dfeed and is
+ defined by the constant OF_DT_HEADER
+
+ - totalsize
+
+ This is the total size of the DT block including the header. The
+ "DT" block should enclose all data structures defined in this
+ chapter (who are pointed to by offsets in this header). That is,
+ the device-tree structure, strings, and the memory reserve map.
+
+ - off_dt_struct
+
+ This is an offset from the beginning of the header to the start
+ of the "structure" part the device tree. (see 2) device tree)
+
+ - off_dt_strings
+
+ This is an offset from the beginning of the header to the start
+ of the "strings" part of the device-tree
+
+ - off_mem_rsvmap
+
+ This is an offset from the beginning of the header to the start
+ of the reserved memory map. This map is a list of pairs of 64-
+ bit integers. Each pair is a physical address and a size. The
+ list is terminated by an entry of size 0. This map provides the
+ kernel with a list of physical memory areas that are "reserved"
+ and thus not to be used for memory allocations, especially during
+ early initialization. The kernel needs to allocate memory during
+ boot for things like un-flattening the device-tree, allocating an
+ MMU hash table, etc... Those allocations must be done in such a
+ way to avoid overriding critical things like, on Open Firmware
+ capable machines, the RTAS instance, or on some pSeries, the TCE
+ tables used for the iommu. Typically, the reserve map should
+ contain _at least_ this DT block itself (header,total_size). If
+ you are passing an initrd to the kernel, you should reserve it as
+ well. You do not need to reserve the kernel image itself. The map
+ should be 64-bit aligned.
+
+ - version
+
+ This is the version of this structure. Version 1 stops
+ here. Version 2 adds an additional field boot_cpuid_phys.
+ Version 3 adds the size of the strings block, allowing the kernel
+ to reallocate it easily at boot and free up the unused flattened
+ structure after expansion. Version 16 introduces a new more
+ "compact" format for the tree itself that is however not backward
+ compatible. Version 17 adds an additional field, size_dt_struct,
+ allowing it to be reallocated or moved more easily (this is
+ particularly useful for bootloaders which need to make
+ adjustments to a device tree based on probed information). You
+ should always generate a structure of the highest version defined
+ at the time of your implementation. Currently that is version 17,
+ unless you explicitly aim at being backward compatible.
+
+ - last_comp_version
+
+ Last compatible version. This indicates down to what version of
+ the DT block you are backward compatible. For example, version 2
+ is backward compatible with version 1 (that is, a kernel build
+ for version 1 will be able to boot with a version 2 format). You
+ should put a 1 in this field if you generate a device tree of
+ version 1 to 3, or 16 if you generate a tree of version 16 or 17
+ using the new unit name format.
+
+ - boot_cpuid_phys
+
+ This field only exist on version 2 headers. It indicate which
+ physical CPU ID is calling the kernel entry point. This is used,
+ among others, by kexec. If you are on an SMP system, this value
+ should match the content of the "reg" property of the CPU node in
+ the device-tree corresponding to the CPU calling the kernel entry
+ point (see further chapters for more informations on the required
+ device-tree contents)
+
+ - size_dt_strings
+
+ This field only exists on version 3 and later headers. It
+ gives the size of the "strings" section of the device tree (which
+ starts at the offset given by off_dt_strings).
+
+ - size_dt_struct
+
+ This field only exists on version 17 and later headers. It gives
+ the size of the "structure" section of the device tree (which
+ starts at the offset given by off_dt_struct).
+
+ So the typical layout of a DT block (though the various parts don't
+ need to be in that order) looks like this (addresses go from top to
+ bottom):
+
+
+ ------------------------------
+ r3 -> | struct boot_param_header |
+ ------------------------------
+ | (alignment gap) (*) |
+ ------------------------------
+ | memory reserve map |
+ ------------------------------
+ | (alignment gap) |
+ ------------------------------
+ | |
+ | device-tree structure |
+ | |
+ ------------------------------
+ | (alignment gap) |
+ ------------------------------
+ | |
+ | device-tree strings |
+ | |
+ -----> ------------------------------
+ |
+ |
+ --- (r3 + totalsize)
+
+ (*) The alignment gaps are not necessarily present; their presence
+ and size are dependent on the various alignment requirements of
+ the individual data blocks.
+
+
+2) Device tree generalities
+---------------------------
+
+This device-tree itself is separated in two different blocks, a
+structure block and a strings block. Both need to be aligned to a 4
+byte boundary.
+
+First, let's quickly describe the device-tree concept before detailing
+the storage format. This chapter does _not_ describe the detail of the
+required types of nodes & properties for the kernel, this is done
+later in chapter III.
+
+The device-tree layout is strongly inherited from the definition of
+the Open Firmware IEEE 1275 device-tree. It's basically a tree of
+nodes, each node having two or more named properties. A property can
+have a value or not.
+
+It is a tree, so each node has one and only one parent except for the
+root node who has no parent.
+
+A node has 2 names. The actual node name is generally contained in a
+property of type "name" in the node property list whose value is a
+zero terminated string and is mandatory for version 1 to 3 of the
+format definition (as it is in Open Firmware). Version 16 makes it
+optional as it can generate it from the unit name defined below.
+
+There is also a "unit name" that is used to differentiate nodes with
+the same name at the same level, it is usually made of the node
+names, the "@" sign, and a "unit address", which definition is
+specific to the bus type the node sits on.
+
+The unit name doesn't exist as a property per-se but is included in
+the device-tree structure. It is typically used to represent "path" in
+the device-tree. More details about the actual format of these will be
+below.
+
+The kernel powerpc generic code does not make any formal use of the
+unit address (though some board support code may do) so the only real
+requirement here for the unit address is to ensure uniqueness of
+the node unit name at a given level of the tree. Nodes with no notion
+of address and no possible sibling of the same name (like /memory or
+/cpus) may omit the unit address in the context of this specification,
+or use the "@0" default unit address. The unit name is used to define
+a node "full path", which is the concatenation of all parent node
+unit names separated with "/".
+
+The root node doesn't have a defined name, and isn't required to have
+a name property either if you are using version 3 or earlier of the
+format. It also has no unit address (no @ symbol followed by a unit
+address). The root node unit name is thus an empty string. The full
+path to the root node is "/".
+
+Every node which actually represents an actual device (that is, a node
+which isn't only a virtual "container" for more nodes, like "/cpus"
+is) is also required to have a "device_type" property indicating the
+type of node .
+
+Finally, every node that can be referenced from a property in another
+node is required to have a "linux,phandle" property. Real open
+firmware implementations provide a unique "phandle" value for every
+node that the "prom_init()" trampoline code turns into
+"linux,phandle" properties. However, this is made optional if the
+flattened device tree is used directly. An example of a node
+referencing another node via "phandle" is when laying out the
+interrupt tree which will be described in a further version of this
+document.
+
+This "linux, phandle" property is a 32-bit value that uniquely
+identifies a node. You are free to use whatever values or system of
+values, internal pointers, or whatever to generate these, the only
+requirement is that every node for which you provide that property has
+a unique value for it.
+
+Here is an example of a simple device-tree. In this example, an "o"
+designates a node followed by the node unit name. Properties are
+presented with their name followed by their content. "content"
+represents an ASCII string (zero terminated) value, while <content>
+represents a 32-bit hexadecimal value. The various nodes in this
+example will be discussed in a later chapter. At this point, it is
+only meant to give you a idea of what a device-tree looks like. I have
+purposefully kept the "name" and "linux,phandle" properties which
+aren't necessary in order to give you a better idea of what the tree
+looks like in practice.
+
+ / o device-tree
+ |- name = "device-tree"
+ |- model = "MyBoardName"
+ |- compatible = "MyBoardFamilyName"
+ |- #address-cells = <2>
+ |- #size-cells = <2>
+ |- linux,phandle = <0>
+ |
+ o cpus
+ | | - name = "cpus"
+ | | - linux,phandle = <1>
+ | | - #address-cells = <1>
+ | | - #size-cells = <0>
+ | |
+ | o PowerPC,970@0
+ | |- name = "PowerPC,970"
+ | |- device_type = "cpu"
+ | |- reg = <0>
+ | |- clock-frequency = <5f5e1000>
+ | |- 64-bit
+ | |- linux,phandle = <2>
+ |
+ o memory@0
+ | |- name = "memory"
+ | |- device_type = "memory"
+ | |- reg = <00000000 00000000 00000000 20000000>
+ | |- linux,phandle = <3>
+ |
+ o chosen
+ |- name = "chosen"
+ |- bootargs = "root=/dev/sda2"
+ |- linux,phandle = <4>
+
+This tree is almost a minimal tree. It pretty much contains the
+minimal set of required nodes and properties to boot a linux kernel;
+that is, some basic model informations at the root, the CPUs, and the
+physical memory layout. It also includes misc information passed
+through /chosen, like in this example, the platform type (mandatory)
+and the kernel command line arguments (optional).
+
+The /cpus/PowerPC,970@0/64-bit property is an example of a
+property without a value. All other properties have a value. The
+significance of the #address-cells and #size-cells properties will be
+explained in chapter IV which defines precisely the required nodes and
+properties and their content.
+
+
+3) Device tree "structure" block
+
+The structure of the device tree is a linearized tree structure. The
+"OF_DT_BEGIN_NODE" token starts a new node, and the "OF_DT_END_NODE"
+ends that node definition. Child nodes are simply defined before
+"OF_DT_END_NODE" (that is nodes within the node). A 'token' is a 32
+bit value. The tree has to be "finished" with a OF_DT_END token
+
+Here's the basic structure of a single node:
+
+ * token OF_DT_BEGIN_NODE (that is 0x00000001)
+ * for version 1 to 3, this is the node full path as a zero
+ terminated string, starting with "/". For version 16 and later,
+ this is the node unit name only (or an empty string for the
+ root node)
+ * [align gap to next 4 bytes boundary]
+ * for each property:
+ * token OF_DT_PROP (that is 0x00000003)
+ * 32-bit value of property value size in bytes (or 0 if no
+ value)
+ * 32-bit value of offset in string block of property name
+ * property value data if any
+ * [align gap to next 4 bytes boundary]
+ * [child nodes if any]
+ * token OF_DT_END_NODE (that is 0x00000002)
+
+So the node content can be summarized as a start token, a full path,
+a list of properties, a list of child nodes, and an end token. Every
+child node is a full node structure itself as defined above.
+
+NOTE: The above definition requires that all property definitions for
+a particular node MUST precede any subnode definitions for that node.
+Although the structure would not be ambiguous if properties and
+subnodes were intermingled, the kernel parser requires that the
+properties come first (up until at least 2.6.22). Any tools
+manipulating a flattened tree must take care to preserve this
+constraint.
+
+4) Device tree "strings" block
+
+In order to save space, property names, which are generally redundant,
+are stored separately in the "strings" block. This block is simply the
+whole bunch of zero terminated strings for all property names
+concatenated together. The device-tree property definitions in the
+structure block will contain offset values from the beginning of the
+strings block.
+
+
+III - Required content of the device tree
+=========================================
+
+WARNING: All "linux,*" properties defined in this document apply only
+to a flattened device-tree. If your platform uses a real
+implementation of Open Firmware or an implementation compatible with
+the Open Firmware client interface, those properties will be created
+by the trampoline code in the kernel's prom_init() file. For example,
+that's where you'll have to add code to detect your board model and
+set the platform number. However, when using the flattened device-tree
+entry point, there is no prom_init() pass, and thus you have to
+provide those properties yourself.
+
+
+1) Note about cells and address representation
+----------------------------------------------
+
+The general rule is documented in the various Open Firmware
+documentations. If you choose to describe a bus with the device-tree
+and there exist an OF bus binding, then you should follow the
+specification. However, the kernel does not require every single
+device or bus to be described by the device tree.
+
+In general, the format of an address for a device is defined by the
+parent bus type, based on the #address-cells and #size-cells
+properties. Note that the parent's parent definitions of #address-cells
+and #size-cells are not inherited so every node with children must specify
+them. The kernel requires the root node to have those properties defining
+addresses format for devices directly mapped on the processor bus.
+
+Those 2 properties define 'cells' for representing an address and a
+size. A "cell" is a 32-bit number. For example, if both contain 2
+like the example tree given above, then an address and a size are both
+composed of 2 cells, and each is a 64-bit number (cells are
+concatenated and expected to be in big endian format). Another example
+is the way Apple firmware defines them, with 2 cells for an address
+and one cell for a size. Most 32-bit implementations should define
+#address-cells and #size-cells to 1, which represents a 32-bit value.
+Some 32-bit processors allow for physical addresses greater than 32
+bits; these processors should define #address-cells as 2.
+
+"reg" properties are always a tuple of the type "address size" where
+the number of cells of address and size is specified by the bus
+#address-cells and #size-cells. When a bus supports various address
+spaces and other flags relative to a given address allocation (like
+prefetchable, etc...) those flags are usually added to the top level
+bits of the physical address. For example, a PCI physical address is
+made of 3 cells, the bottom two containing the actual address itself
+while the top cell contains address space indication, flags, and pci
+bus & device numbers.
+
+For busses that support dynamic allocation, it's the accepted practice
+to then not provide the address in "reg" (keep it 0) though while
+providing a flag indicating the address is dynamically allocated, and
+then, to provide a separate "assigned-addresses" property that
+contains the fully allocated addresses. See the PCI OF bindings for
+details.
+
+In general, a simple bus with no address space bits and no dynamic
+allocation is preferred if it reflects your hardware, as the existing
+kernel address parsing functions will work out of the box. If you
+define a bus type with a more complex address format, including things
+like address space bits, you'll have to add a bus translator to the
+prom_parse.c file of the recent kernels for your bus type.
+
+The "reg" property only defines addresses and sizes (if #size-cells is
+non-0) within a given bus. In order to translate addresses upward
+(that is into parent bus addresses, and possibly into CPU physical
+addresses), all busses must contain a "ranges" property. If the
+"ranges" property is missing at a given level, it's assumed that
+translation isn't possible, i.e., the registers are not visible on the
+parent bus. The format of the "ranges" property for a bus is a list
+of:
+
+ bus address, parent bus address, size
+
+"bus address" is in the format of the bus this bus node is defining,
+that is, for a PCI bridge, it would be a PCI address. Thus, (bus
+address, size) defines a range of addresses for child devices. "parent
+bus address" is in the format of the parent bus of this bus. For
+example, for a PCI host controller, that would be a CPU address. For a
+PCI<->ISA bridge, that would be a PCI address. It defines the base
+address in the parent bus where the beginning of that range is mapped.
+
+For a new 64-bit powerpc board, I recommend either the 2/2 format or
+Apple's 2/1 format which is slightly more compact since sizes usually
+fit in a single 32-bit word. New 32-bit powerpc boards should use a
+1/1 format, unless the processor supports physical addresses greater
+than 32-bits, in which case a 2/1 format is recommended.
+
+Alternatively, the "ranges" property may be empty, indicating that the
+registers are visible on the parent bus using an identity mapping
+translation. In other words, the parent bus address space is the same
+as the child bus address space.
+
+2) Note about "compatible" properties
+-------------------------------------
+
+These properties are optional, but recommended in devices and the root
+node. The format of a "compatible" property is a list of concatenated
+zero terminated strings. They allow a device to express its
+compatibility with a family of similar devices, in some cases,
+allowing a single driver to match against several devices regardless
+of their actual names.
+
+3) Note about "name" properties
+-------------------------------
+
+While earlier users of Open Firmware like OldWorld macintoshes tended
+to use the actual device name for the "name" property, it's nowadays
+considered a good practice to use a name that is closer to the device
+class (often equal to device_type). For example, nowadays, ethernet
+controllers are named "ethernet", an additional "model" property
+defining precisely the chip type/model, and "compatible" property
+defining the family in case a single driver can driver more than one
+of these chips. However, the kernel doesn't generally put any
+restriction on the "name" property; it is simply considered good
+practice to follow the standard and its evolutions as closely as
+possible.
+
+Note also that the new format version 16 makes the "name" property
+optional. If it's absent for a node, then the node's unit name is then
+used to reconstruct the name. That is, the part of the unit name
+before the "@" sign is used (or the entire unit name if no "@" sign
+is present).
+
+4) Note about node and property names and character set
+-------------------------------------------------------
+
+While open firmware provides more flexible usage of 8859-1, this
+specification enforces more strict rules. Nodes and properties should
+be comprised only of ASCII characters 'a' to 'z', '0' to
+'9', ',', '.', '_', '+', '#', '?', and '-'. Node names additionally
+allow uppercase characters 'A' to 'Z' (property names should be
+lowercase. The fact that vendors like Apple don't respect this rule is
+irrelevant here). Additionally, node and property names should always
+begin with a character in the range 'a' to 'z' (or 'A' to 'Z' for node
+names).
+
+The maximum number of characters for both nodes and property names
+is 31. In the case of node names, this is only the leftmost part of
+a unit name (the pure "name" property), it doesn't include the unit
+address which can extend beyond that limit.
+
+
+5) Required nodes and properties
+--------------------------------
+ These are all that are currently required. However, it is strongly
+ recommended that you expose PCI host bridges as documented in the
+ PCI binding to open firmware, and your interrupt tree as documented
+ in OF interrupt tree specification.
+
+ a) The root node
+
+ The root node requires some properties to be present:
+
+ - model : this is your board name/model
+ - #address-cells : address representation for "root" devices
+ - #size-cells: the size representation for "root" devices
+ - device_type : This property shouldn't be necessary. However, if
+ you decide to create a device_type for your root node, make sure it
+ is _not_ "chrp" unless your platform is a pSeries or PAPR compliant
+ one for 64-bit, or a CHRP-type machine for 32-bit as this will
+ matched by the kernel this way.
+
+ Additionally, some recommended properties are:
+
+ - compatible : the board "family" generally finds its way here,
+ for example, if you have 2 board models with a similar layout,
+ that typically get driven by the same platform code in the
+ kernel, you would use a different "model" property but put a
+ value in "compatible". The kernel doesn't directly use that
+ value but it is generally useful.
+
+ The root node is also generally where you add additional properties
+ specific to your board like the serial number if any, that sort of
+ thing. It is recommended that if you add any "custom" property whose
+ name may clash with standard defined ones, you prefix them with your
+ vendor name and a comma.
+
+ b) The /cpus node
+
+ This node is the parent of all individual CPU nodes. It doesn't
+ have any specific requirements, though it's generally good practice
+ to have at least:
+
+ #address-cells = <00000001>
+ #size-cells = <00000000>
+
+ This defines that the "address" for a CPU is a single cell, and has
+ no meaningful size. This is not necessary but the kernel will assume
+ that format when reading the "reg" properties of a CPU node, see
+ below
+
+ c) The /cpus/* nodes
+
+ So under /cpus, you are supposed to create a node for every CPU on
+ the machine. There is no specific restriction on the name of the
+ CPU, though It's common practice to call it PowerPC,<name>. For
+ example, Apple uses PowerPC,G5 while IBM uses PowerPC,970FX.
+
+ Required properties:
+
+ - device_type : has to be "cpu"
+ - reg : This is the physical CPU number, it's a single 32-bit cell
+ and is also used as-is as the unit number for constructing the
+ unit name in the full path. For example, with 2 CPUs, you would
+ have the full path:
+ /cpus/PowerPC,970FX@0
+ /cpus/PowerPC,970FX@1
+ (unit addresses do not require leading zeroes)
+ - d-cache-block-size : one cell, L1 data cache block size in bytes (*)
+ - i-cache-block-size : one cell, L1 instruction cache block size in
+ bytes
+ - d-cache-size : one cell, size of L1 data cache in bytes
+ - i-cache-size : one cell, size of L1 instruction cache in bytes
+
+(*) The cache "block" size is the size on which the cache management
+instructions operate. Historically, this document used the cache
+"line" size here which is incorrect. The kernel will prefer the cache
+block size and will fallback to cache line size for backward
+compatibility.
+
+ Recommended properties:
+
+ - timebase-frequency : a cell indicating the frequency of the
+ timebase in Hz. This is not directly used by the generic code,
+ but you are welcome to copy/paste the pSeries code for setting
+ the kernel timebase/decrementer calibration based on this
+ value.
+ - clock-frequency : a cell indicating the CPU core clock frequency
+ in Hz. A new property will be defined for 64-bit values, but if
+ your frequency is < 4Ghz, one cell is enough. Here as well as
+ for the above, the common code doesn't use that property, but
+ you are welcome to re-use the pSeries or Maple one. A future
+ kernel version might provide a common function for this.
+ - d-cache-line-size : one cell, L1 data cache line size in bytes
+ if different from the block size
+ - i-cache-line-size : one cell, L1 instruction cache line size in
+ bytes if different from the block size
+
+ You are welcome to add any property you find relevant to your board,
+ like some information about the mechanism used to soft-reset the
+ CPUs. For example, Apple puts the GPIO number for CPU soft reset
+ lines in there as a "soft-reset" property since they start secondary
+ CPUs by soft-resetting them.
+
+
+ d) the /memory node(s)
+
+ To define the physical memory layout of your board, you should
+ create one or more memory node(s). You can either create a single
+ node with all memory ranges in its reg property, or you can create
+ several nodes, as you wish. The unit address (@ part) used for the
+ full path is the address of the first range of memory defined by a
+ given node. If you use a single memory node, this will typically be
+ @0.
+
+ Required properties:
+
+ - device_type : has to be "memory"
+ - reg : This property contains all the physical memory ranges of
+ your board. It's a list of addresses/sizes concatenated
+ together, with the number of cells of each defined by the
+ #address-cells and #size-cells of the root node. For example,
+ with both of these properties being 2 like in the example given
+ earlier, a 970 based machine with 6Gb of RAM could typically
+ have a "reg" property here that looks like:
+
+ 00000000 00000000 00000000 80000000
+ 00000001 00000000 00000001 00000000
+
+ That is a range starting at 0 of 0x80000000 bytes and a range
+ starting at 0x100000000 and of 0x100000000 bytes. You can see
+ that there is no memory covering the IO hole between 2Gb and
+ 4Gb. Some vendors prefer splitting those ranges into smaller
+ segments, but the kernel doesn't care.
+
+ e) The /chosen node
+
+ This node is a bit "special". Normally, that's where open firmware
+ puts some variable environment information, like the arguments, or
+ the default input/output devices.
+
+ This specification makes a few of these mandatory, but also defines
+ some linux-specific properties that would be normally constructed by
+ the prom_init() trampoline when booting with an OF client interface,
+ but that you have to provide yourself when using the flattened format.
+
+ Recommended properties:
+
+ - bootargs : This zero-terminated string is passed as the kernel
+ command line
+ - linux,stdout-path : This is the full path to your standard
+ console device if any. Typically, if you have serial devices on
+ your board, you may want to put the full path to the one set as
+ the default console in the firmware here, for the kernel to pick
+ it up as its own default console. If you look at the function
+ set_preferred_console() in arch/ppc64/kernel/setup.c, you'll see
+ that the kernel tries to find out the default console and has
+ knowledge of various types like 8250 serial ports. You may want
+ to extend this function to add your own.
+
+ Note that u-boot creates and fills in the chosen node for platforms
+ that use it.
+
+ (Note: a practice that is now obsolete was to include a property
+ under /chosen called interrupt-controller which had a phandle value
+ that pointed to the main interrupt controller)
+
+ f) the /soc<SOCname> node
+
+ This node is used to represent a system-on-a-chip (SOC) and must be
+ present if the processor is a SOC. The top-level soc node contains
+ information that is global to all devices on the SOC. The node name
+ should contain a unit address for the SOC, which is the base address
+ of the memory-mapped register set for the SOC. The name of an soc
+ node should start with "soc", and the remainder of the name should
+ represent the part number for the soc. For example, the MPC8540's
+ soc node would be called "soc8540".
+
+ Required properties:
+
+ - device_type : Should be "soc"
+ - ranges : Should be defined as specified in 1) to describe the
+ translation of SOC addresses for memory mapped SOC registers.
+ - bus-frequency: Contains the bus frequency for the SOC node.
+ Typically, the value of this field is filled in by the boot
+ loader.
+
+
+ Recommended properties:
+
+ - reg : This property defines the address and size of the
+ memory-mapped registers that are used for the SOC node itself.
+ It does not include the child device registers - these will be
+ defined inside each child node. The address specified in the
+ "reg" property should match the unit address of the SOC node.
+ - #address-cells : Address representation for "soc" devices. The
+ format of this field may vary depending on whether or not the
+ device registers are memory mapped. For memory mapped
+ registers, this field represents the number of cells needed to
+ represent the address of the registers. For SOCs that do not
+ use MMIO, a special address format should be defined that
+ contains enough cells to represent the required information.
+ See 1) above for more details on defining #address-cells.
+ - #size-cells : Size representation for "soc" devices
+ - #interrupt-cells : Defines the width of cells used to represent
+ interrupts. Typically this value is <2>, which includes a
+ 32-bit number that represents the interrupt number, and a
+ 32-bit number that represents the interrupt sense and level.
+ This field is only needed if the SOC contains an interrupt
+ controller.
+
+ The SOC node may contain child nodes for each SOC device that the
+ platform uses. Nodes should not be created for devices which exist
+ on the SOC but are not used by a particular platform. See chapter VI
+ for more information on how to specify devices that are part of a SOC.
+
+ Example SOC node for the MPC8540:
+
+ soc8540@e0000000 {
+ #address-cells = <1>;
+ #size-cells = <1>;
+ #interrupt-cells = <2>;
+ device_type = "soc";
+ ranges = <00000000 e0000000 00100000>
+ reg = <e0000000 00003000>;
+ bus-frequency = <0>;
+ }
+
+
+
+IV - "dtc", the device tree compiler
+====================================
+
+
+dtc source code can be found at
+<http://ozlabs.org/~dgibson/dtc/dtc.tar.gz>
+
+WARNING: This version is still in early development stage; the
+resulting device-tree "blobs" have not yet been validated with the
+kernel. The current generated bloc lacks a useful reserve map (it will
+be fixed to generate an empty one, it's up to the bootloader to fill
+it up) among others. The error handling needs work, bugs are lurking,
+etc...
+
+dtc basically takes a device-tree in a given format and outputs a
+device-tree in another format. The currently supported formats are:
+
+ Input formats:
+ -------------
+
+ - "dtb": "blob" format, that is a flattened device-tree block
+ with
+ header all in a binary blob.
+ - "dts": "source" format. This is a text file containing a
+ "source" for a device-tree. The format is defined later in this
+ chapter.
+ - "fs" format. This is a representation equivalent to the
+ output of /proc/device-tree, that is nodes are directories and
+ properties are files
+
+ Output formats:
+ ---------------
+
+ - "dtb": "blob" format
+ - "dts": "source" format
+ - "asm": assembly language file. This is a file that can be
+ sourced by gas to generate a device-tree "blob". That file can
+ then simply be added to your Makefile. Additionally, the
+ assembly file exports some symbols that can be used.
+
+
+The syntax of the dtc tool is
+
+ dtc [-I <input-format>] [-O <output-format>]
+ [-o output-filename] [-V output_version] input_filename
+
+
+The "output_version" defines what version of the "blob" format will be
+generated. Supported versions are 1,2,3 and 16. The default is
+currently version 3 but that may change in the future to version 16.
+
+Additionally, dtc performs various sanity checks on the tree, like the
+uniqueness of linux, phandle properties, validity of strings, etc...
+
+The format of the .dts "source" file is "C" like, supports C and C++
+style comments.
+
+/ {
+}
+
+The above is the "device-tree" definition. It's the only statement
+supported currently at the toplevel.
+
+/ {
+ property1 = "string_value"; /* define a property containing a 0
+ * terminated string
+ */
+
+ property2 = <1234abcd>; /* define a property containing a
+ * numerical 32-bit value (hexadecimal)
+ */
+
+ property3 = <12345678 12345678 deadbeef>;
+ /* define a property containing 3
+ * numerical 32-bit values (cells) in
+ * hexadecimal
+ */
+ property4 = [0a 0b 0c 0d de ea ad be ef];
+ /* define a property whose content is
+ * an arbitrary array of bytes
+ */
+
+ childnode@addresss { /* define a child node named "childnode"
+ * whose unit name is "childnode at
+ * address"
+ */
+
+ childprop = "hello\n"; /* define a property "childprop" of
+ * childnode (in this case, a string)
+ */
+ };
+};
+
+Nodes can contain other nodes etc... thus defining the hierarchical
+structure of the tree.
+
+Strings support common escape sequences from C: "\n", "\t", "\r",
+"\(octal value)", "\x(hex value)".
+
+It is also suggested that you pipe your source file through cpp (gcc
+preprocessor) so you can use #include's, #define for constants, etc...
+
+Finally, various options are planned but not yet implemented, like
+automatic generation of phandles, labels (exported to the asm file so
+you can point to a property content and change it easily from whatever
+you link the device-tree with), label or path instead of numeric value
+in some cells to "point" to a node (replaced by a phandle at compile
+time), export of reserve map address to the asm file, ability to
+specify reserve map content at compile time, etc...
+
+We may provide a .h include file with common definitions of that
+proves useful for some properties (like building PCI properties or
+interrupt maps) though it may be better to add a notion of struct
+definitions to the compiler...
+
+
+V - Recommendations for a bootloader
+====================================
+
+
+Here are some various ideas/recommendations that have been proposed
+while all this has been defined and implemented.
+
+ - The bootloader may want to be able to use the device-tree itself
+ and may want to manipulate it (to add/edit some properties,
+ like physical memory size or kernel arguments). At this point, 2
+ choices can be made. Either the bootloader works directly on the
+ flattened format, or the bootloader has its own internal tree
+ representation with pointers (similar to the kernel one) and
+ re-flattens the tree when booting the kernel. The former is a bit
+ more difficult to edit/modify, the later requires probably a bit
+ more code to handle the tree structure. Note that the structure
+ format has been designed so it's relatively easy to "insert"
+ properties or nodes or delete them by just memmoving things
+ around. It contains no internal offsets or pointers for this
+ purpose.
+
+ - An example of code for iterating nodes & retrieving properties
+ directly from the flattened tree format can be found in the kernel
+ file arch/ppc64/kernel/prom.c, look at scan_flat_dt() function,
+ its usage in early_init_devtree(), and the corresponding various
+ early_init_dt_scan_*() callbacks. That code can be re-used in a
+ GPL bootloader, and as the author of that code, I would be happy
+ to discuss possible free licensing to any vendor who wishes to
+ integrate all or part of this code into a non-GPL bootloader.

+
+VI - System-on-a-chip devices and nodes
+=======================================
+
+Many companies are now starting to develop system-on-a-chip
+processors, where the processor core (CPU) and many peripheral devices
+exist on a single piece of silicon. For these SOCs, an SOC node
+should be used that defines child nodes for the devices that make
+up the SOC. While platforms are not required to use this model in
+order to boot the kernel, it is highly encouraged that all SOC
+implementations define as complete a flat-device-tree as possible to
+describe the devices on the SOC. This will allow for the
+genericization of much of the kernel code.
+
+
+1) Defining child nodes of an SOC
+---------------------------------
+
+Each device that is part of an SOC may have its own node entry inside
+the SOC node. For each device that is included in the SOC, the unit
+address property represents the address offset for this device's
+memory-mapped registers in the parent's address space. The parent's
+address space is defined by the "ranges" property in the top-level soc
+node. The "reg" property for each node that exists directly under the
+SOC node should contain the address mapping from the child address space
+to the parent SOC address space and the size of the device's
+memory-mapped register file.
+
+For many devices that may exist inside an SOC, there are predefined
+specifications for the format of the device tree node. All SOC child
+nodes should follow these specifications, except where noted in this
+document.
+
+See appendix A for an example partial SOC node definition for the
+MPC8540.
+
+
+2) Representing devices without a current OF specification
+----------------------------------------------------------
+
+Currently, there are many devices on SOCs that do not have a standard
+representation pre-defined as part of the open firmware
+specifications, mainly because the boards that contain these SOCs are
+not currently booted using open firmware. This section contains
+descriptions for the SOC devices for which new nodes have been
+defined; this list will expand as more and more SOC-containing
+platforms are moved over to use the flattened-device-tree model.
+
+ a) PHY nodes
+
+ Required properties:
+
+ - device_type : Should be "ethernet-phy"
+ - interrupts : <a b> where a is the interrupt number and b is a
+ field that represents an encoding of the sense and level
+ information for the interrupt. This should be encoded based on
+ the information in section 2) depending on the type of interrupt
+ controller you have.
+ - interrupt-parent : the phandle for the interrupt controller that
+ services interrupts for this device.
+ - reg : The ID number for the phy, usually a small integer
+ - linux,phandle : phandle for this node; likely referenced by an
+ ethernet controller node.
+
+
+ Example:
+
+ ethernet-phy@0 {
+ linux,phandle = <2452000>
+ interrupt-parent = <40000>;
+ interrupts = <35 1>;
+ reg = <0>;
+ device_type = "ethernet-phy";
+ };
+
+
+ b) Interrupt controllers
+
+ Some SOC devices contain interrupt controllers that are different
+ from the standard Open PIC specification. The SOC device nodes for
+ these types of controllers should be specified just like a standard
+ OpenPIC controller. Sense and level information should be encoded
+ as specified in section 2) of this chapter for each device that
+ specifies an interrupt.
+
+ Example :
+
+ pic@40000 {
+ linux,phandle = <40000>;
+ interrupt-controller;
+ #address-cells = <0>;
+ reg = <40000 40000>;
+ compatible = "chrp,open-pic";
+ device_type = "open-pic";
+ };
+
+ c) CFI or JEDEC memory-mapped NOR flash
+
+ Flash chips (Memory Technology Devices) are often used for solid state
+ file systems on embedded devices.
+
+ - compatible : should contain the specific model of flash chip(s)
+ used, if known, followed by either "cfi-flash" or "jedec-flash"
+ - reg : Address range of the flash chip
+ - bank-width : Width (in bytes) of the flash bank. Equal to the
+ device width times the number of interleaved chips.
+ - device-width : (optional) Width of a single flash chip. If
+ omitted, assumed to be equal to 'bank-width'.
+ - #address-cells, #size-cells : Must be present if the flash has
+ sub-nodes representing partitions (see below). In this case
+ both #address-cells and #size-cells must be equal to 1.
+
+ For JEDEC compatible devices, the following additional properties
+ are defined:
+
+ - vendor-id : Contains the flash chip's vendor id (1 byte).
+ - device-id : Contains the flash chip's device id (1 byte).
+
+ In addition to the information on the flash bank itself, the
+ device tree may optionally contain additional information
+ describing partitions of the flash address space. This can be
+ used on platforms which have strong conventions about which
+ portions of the flash are used for what purposes, but which don't
+ use an on-flash partition table such as RedBoot.
+
+ Each partition is represented as a sub-node of the flash device.
+ Each node's name represents the name of the corresponding
+ partition of the flash device.
+
+ Flash partitions
+ - reg : The partition's offset and size within the flash bank.
+ - label : (optional) The label / name for this flash partition.
+ If omitted, the label is taken from the node name (excluding
+ the unit address).
+ - read-only : (optional) This parameter, if present, is a hint to
+ Linux that this flash partition should only be mounted
+ read-only. This is usually used for flash partitions
+ containing early-boot firmware images or data which should not
+ be clobbered.
+
+ Example:
+
+ flash@ff000000 {
+ compatible = "amd,am29lv128ml", "cfi-flash";
+ reg = <ff000000 01000000>;
+ bank-width = <4>;
+ device-width = <1>;
+ #address-cells = <1>;
+ #size-cells = <1>;
+ fs@0 {
+ label = "fs";
+ reg = <0 f80000>;
+ };
+ firmware@f80000 {
+ label ="firmware";
+ reg = <f80000 80000>;
+ read-only;
+ };
+ };
+
+ d) 4xx/Axon EMAC ethernet nodes
+
+ The EMAC ethernet controller in IBM and AMCC 4xx chips, and also
+ the Axon bridge. To operate this needs to interact with a ths
+ special McMAL DMA controller, and sometimes an RGMII or ZMII
+ interface. In addition to the nodes and properties described
+ below, the node for the OPB bus on which the EMAC sits must have a
+ correct clock-frequency property.
+

+ "ibm,emac4"
+ - interrupts : <interrupt mapping for EMAC IRQ and WOL IRQ>

+ - mdio-device : 1 cell, required iff using shared MDIO registers
+ (440EP). phandle of the EMAC to use to drive the
+ MDIO lines for the PHY used by this EMAC.
+ - zmii-device : 1 cell, required iff connected to a ZMII. phandle of
+ the ZMII device node
+ - zmii-channel : 1 cell, required iff connected to a ZMII. Which ZMII
+ channel or 0xffffffff if ZMII is only used for MDIO.
+ - rgmii-device : 1 cell, required iff connected to an RGMII. phandle
+ of the RGMII device node.
+ For Axon: phandle of plb5/plb4/opb/rgmii
+ - rgmii-channel : 1 cell, required iff connected to an RGMII. Which
+ RGMII channel is used by this EMAC.
+ Fox Axon: present, whatever value is appropriate for each
+ EMAC, that is the content of the current (bogus) "phy-port"
+ property.
+
+ Optional properties:
+ - phy-address : 1 cell, optional, MDIO address of the PHY. If absent,
+ a search is performed.
+ - phy-map : 1 cell, optional, bitmap of addresses to probe the PHY
+ for, used if phy-address is absent. bit 0x00000001 is
+ MDIO address 0.
+ For Axon it can be absent, thouugh my current driver
+ doesn't handle phy-address yet so for now, keep
+ 0x00ffffff in it.
+ - rx-fifo-size-gige : 1 cell, Rx fifo size in bytes for 1000 Mb/sec
+ operations (if absent the value is the same as
+ rx-fifo-size). For Axon, either absent or 2048.
+ - tx-fifo-size-gige : 1 cell, Tx fifo size in bytes for 1000 Mb/sec

+ };
+
+ ii) McMAL node
+
+ Required properties:
+ - device_type : "dma-controller"
+ - compatible : compatible list, containing 2 entries, first is
+ "ibm,mcmal-CHIP" where CHIP is the host ASIC (like
+ emac) and the second is either "ibm,mcmal" or

+ For Axon, "ibm,mcmal-axon","ibm,mcmal2"
+ - interrupts : <interrupt mapping for the MAL interrupts sources:
+ 5 sources: tx_eob, rx_eob, serr, txde, rxde>.
+ For Axon: This is _different_ from the current
+ firmware. We use the "delayed" interrupts for txeob
+ and rxeob. Thus we end up with mapping those 5 MPIC
+ interrupts, all level positive sensitive: 10, 11, 32,

+ EMAC) and the second is "ibm,zmii".
+ For Axon, there is no ZMII node.
+ - reg : <registers mapping>
+
+ iv) RGMII node
+
+ Required properties:
+ - compatible : compatible list, containing 2 entries, first is

+ - reg : <registers mapping>
+ - revision : as provided by the RGMII new version register if
+ available.
+ For Axon: 0x0000012a
+
+ e) Xilinx IP cores
+
+ The Xilinx EDK toolchain ships with a set of IP cores (devices) for use
+ in Xilinx Spartan and Virtex FPGAs. The devices cover the whole range
+ of standard device types (network, serial, etc.) and miscellanious
+ devices (gpio, LCD, spi, etc). Also, since these devices are
+ implemented within the fpga fabric every instance of the device can be
+ synthesised with different options that change the behaviour.
+
+ Each IP-core has a set of parameters which the FPGA designer can use to
+ control how the core is synthesized. Historically, the EDK tool would
+ extract the device parameters relevant to device drivers and copy them
+ into an 'xparameters.h' in the form of #define symbols. This tells the
+ device drivers how the IP cores are configured, but it requres the kernel
+ to be recompiled every time the FPGA bitstream is resynthesized.
+
+ The new approach is to export the parameters into the device tree and
+ generate a new device tree each time the FPGA bitstream changes. The
+ parameters which used to be exported as #defines will now become
+ properties of the device node. In general, device nodes for IP-cores
+ will take the following form:
+
+ (name): (generic-name)@(base-address) {
+ compatible = "xlnx,(ip-core-name)-(HW_VER)"
+ [, (list of compatible devices), ...];
+ reg = <(baseaddr) (size)>;
+ interrupt-parent = <&interrupt-controller-phandle>;
+ interrupts = < ... >;
+ xlnx,(parameter1) = "(string-value)";
+ xlnx,(parameter2) = <(int-value)>;
+ };
+
+ (generic-name): an open firmware-style name that describes the
+ generic class of device. Preferably, this is one word, such
+ as 'serial' or 'ethernet'.
+ (ip-core-name): the name of the ip block (given after the BEGIN
+ directive in system.mhs). Should be in lowercase
+ and all underscores '_' converted to dashes '-'.
+ (name): is derived from the "PARAMETER INSTANCE" value.
+ (parameter#): C_* parameters from system.mhs. The C_ prefix is
+ dropped from the parameter name, the name is converted
+ to lowercase and all underscore '_' characters are
+ converted to dashes '-'.
+ (baseaddr): the baseaddr parameter value (often named C_BASEADDR).
+ (HW_VER): from the HW_VER parameter.
+ (size): the address range size (often C_HIGHADDR - C_BASEADDR + 1).
+
+ Typically, the compatible list will include the exact IP core version
+ followed by an older IP core version which implements the same
+ interface or any other device with the same interface.
+
+ 'reg', 'interrupt-parent' and 'interrupts' are all optional properties.
+
+ For example, the following block from system.mhs:
+
+ BEGIN opb_uartlite
+ PARAMETER INSTANCE = opb_uartlite_0
+ PARAMETER HW_VER = 1.00.b
+ PARAMETER C_BAUDRATE = 115200
+ PARAMETER C_DATA_BITS = 8
+ PARAMETER C_ODD_PARITY = 0
+ PARAMETER C_USE_PARITY = 0
+ PARAMETER C_CLK_FREQ = 50000000
+ PARAMETER C_BASEADDR = 0xEC100000
+ PARAMETER C_HIGHADDR = 0xEC10FFFF
+ BUS_INTERFACE SOPB = opb_7
+ PORT OPB_Clk = CLK_50MHz
+ PORT Interrupt = opb_uartlite_0_Interrupt
+ PORT RX = opb_uartlite_0_RX
+ PORT TX = opb_uartlite_0_TX
+ PORT OPB_Rst = sys_bus_reset_0
+ END
+
+ becomes the following device tree node:
+
+ opb_uartlite_0: serial@ec100000 {
+ device_type = "serial";
+ compatible = "xlnx,opb-uartlite-1.00.b";
+ reg = <ec100000 10000>;
+ interrupt-parent = <&opb_intc_0>;
+ interrupts = <1 0>; // got this from the opb_intc parameters
+ current-speed = <d#115200>; // standard serial device prop
+ clock-frequency = <d#50000000>; // standard serial device prop
+ xlnx,data-bits = <8>;
+ xlnx,odd-parity = <0>;
+ xlnx,use-parity = <0>;
+ };
+
+ Some IP cores actually implement 2 or more logical devices. In
+ this case, the device should still describe the whole IP core with
+ a single node and add a child node for each logical device. The
+ ranges property can be used to translate from parent IP-core to the
+ registers of each device. In addition, the parent node should be
+ compatible with the bus type 'xlnx,compound', and should contain
+ #address-cells and #size-cells, as with any other bus. (Note: this
+ makes the assumption that both logical devices have the same bus
+ binding. If this is not true, then separate nodes should be used
+ for each logical device). The 'cell-index' property can be used to
+ enumerate logical devices within an IP core. For example, the
+ following is the system.mhs entry for the dual ps2 controller found
+ on the ml403 reference design.
+
+ BEGIN opb_ps2_dual_ref
+ PARAMETER INSTANCE = opb_ps2_dual_ref_0
+ PARAMETER HW_VER = 1.00.a
+ PARAMETER C_BASEADDR = 0xA9000000
+ PARAMETER C_HIGHADDR = 0xA9001FFF
+ BUS_INTERFACE SOPB = opb_v20_0
+ PORT Sys_Intr1 = ps2_1_intr
+ PORT Sys_Intr2 = ps2_2_intr
+ PORT Clkin1 = ps2_clk_rx_1
+ PORT Clkin2 = ps2_clk_rx_2
+ PORT Clkpd1 = ps2_clk_tx_1
+ PORT Clkpd2 = ps2_clk_tx_2
+ PORT Rx1 = ps2_d_rx_1
+ PORT Rx2 = ps2_d_rx_2
+ PORT Txpd1 = ps2_d_tx_1
+ PORT Txpd2 = ps2_d_tx_2
+ END
+
+ It would result in the following device tree nodes:
+
+ opb_ps2_dual_ref_0: opb-ps2-dual-ref@a9000000 {
+ #address-cells = <1>;
+ #size-cells = <1>;
+ compatible = "xlnx,compound";
+ ranges = <0 a9000000 2000>;
+ // If this device had extra parameters, then they would
+ // go here.
+ ps2@0 {
+ compatible = "xlnx,opb-ps2-dual-ref-1.00.a";
+ reg = <0 40>;
+ interrupt-parent = <&opb_intc_0>;
+ interrupts = <3 0>;
+ cell-index = <0>;
+ };
+ ps2@1000 {
+ compatible = "xlnx,opb-ps2-dual-ref-1.00.a";
+ reg = <1000 40>;
+ interrupt-parent = <&opb_intc_0>;
+ interrupts = <3 0>;
+ cell-index = <0>;
+ };
+ };
+
+ Also, the system.mhs file defines bus attachments from the processor
+ to the devices. The device tree structure should reflect the bus
+ attachments. Again an example; this system.mhs fragment:
+
+ BEGIN ppc405_virtex4
+ PARAMETER INSTANCE = ppc405_0
+ PARAMETER HW_VER = 1.01.a
+ BUS_INTERFACE DPLB = plb_v34_0
+ BUS_INTERFACE IPLB = plb_v34_0
+ END
+
+ BEGIN opb_intc
+ PARAMETER INSTANCE = opb_intc_0
+ PARAMETER HW_VER = 1.00.c
+ PARAMETER C_BASEADDR = 0xD1000FC0
+ PARAMETER C_HIGHADDR = 0xD1000FDF
+ BUS_INTERFACE SOPB = opb_v20_0
+ END
+
+ BEGIN opb_uart16550
+ PARAMETER INSTANCE = opb_uart16550_0
+ PARAMETER HW_VER = 1.00.d
+ PARAMETER C_BASEADDR = 0xa0000000
+ PARAMETER C_HIGHADDR = 0xa0001FFF
+ BUS_INTERFACE SOPB = opb_v20_0
+ END
+
+ BEGIN plb_v34
+ PARAMETER INSTANCE = plb_v34_0
+ PARAMETER HW_VER = 1.02.a
+ END
+
+ BEGIN plb_bram_if_cntlr
+ PARAMETER INSTANCE = plb_bram_if_cntlr_0
+ PARAMETER HW_VER = 1.00.b
+ PARAMETER C_BASEADDR = 0xFFFF0000
+ PARAMETER C_HIGHADDR = 0xFFFFFFFF
+ BUS_INTERFACE SPLB = plb_v34_0
+ END
+
+ BEGIN plb2opb_bridge
+ PARAMETER INSTANCE = plb2opb_bridge_0
+ PARAMETER HW_VER = 1.01.a
+ PARAMETER C_RNG0_BASEADDR = 0x20000000
+ PARAMETER C_RNG0_HIGHADDR = 0x3FFFFFFF
+ PARAMETER C_RNG1_BASEADDR = 0x60000000
+ PARAMETER C_RNG1_HIGHADDR = 0x7FFFFFFF
+ PARAMETER C_RNG2_BASEADDR = 0x80000000
+ PARAMETER C_RNG2_HIGHADDR = 0xBFFFFFFF
+ PARAMETER C_RNG3_BASEADDR = 0xC0000000
+ PARAMETER C_RNG3_HIGHADDR = 0xDFFFFFFF
+ BUS_INTERFACE SPLB = plb_v34_0
+ BUS_INTERFACE MOPB = opb_v20_0
+ END
+
+ Gives this device tree (some properties removed for clarity):
+
+ plb@0 {
+ #address-cells = <1>;
+ #size-cells = <1>;
+ compatible = "xlnx,plb-v34-1.02.a";
+ device_type = "ibm,plb";
+ ranges; // 1:1 translation
+
+ plb_bram_if_cntrl_0: bram@ffff0000 {
+ reg = <ffff0000 10000>;
+ }
+
+ opb@20000000 {
+ #address-cells = <1>;
+ #size-cells = <1>;
+ ranges = <20000000 20000000 20000000
+ 60000000 60000000 20000000
+ 80000000 80000000 40000000
+ c0000000 c0000000 20000000>;
+
+ opb_uart16550_0: serial@a0000000 {
+ reg = <a00000000 2000>;
+ };
+
+ opb_intc_0: interrupt-controller@d1000fc0 {
+ reg = <d1000fc0 20>;
+ };
+ };
+ };
+
+ That covers the general approach to binding xilinx IP cores into the
+ device tree. The following are bindings for specific devices:
+
+ i) Xilinx ML300 Framebuffer
+
+ Simple framebuffer device from the ML300 reference design (also on the
+ ML403 reference design as well as others).
+
+ Optional properties:
+ - resolution = <xres yres> : pixel resolution of framebuffer. Some
+ implementations use a different resolution.
+ Default is <d#640 d#480>
+ - virt-resolution = <xvirt yvirt> : Size of framebuffer in memory.
+ Default is <d#1024 d#480>.
+ - rotate-display (empty) : rotate display 180 degrees.
+
+ ii) Xilinx SystemACE
+
+ The Xilinx SystemACE device is used to program FPGAs from an FPGA
+ bitstream stored on a CF card. It can also be used as a generic CF
+ interface device.
+
+ Optional properties:
+ - 8-bit (empty) : Set this property for SystemACE in 8 bit mode
+
+ iii) Xilinx EMAC and Xilinx TEMAC
+
+ Xilinx Ethernet devices. In addition to general xilinx properties
+ listed above, nodes for these devices should include a phy-handle
+ property, and may include other common network device properties
+ like local-mac-address.
+
+ iv) Xilinx Uartlite
+
+ Xilinx uartlite devices are simple fixed speed serial ports.
+
+ Required properties:
+ - current-speed : Baud rate of uartlite
+
+ v) Xilinx hwicap
+
+ Xilinx hwicap devices provide access to the configuration logic
+ of the FPGA through the Internal Configuration Access Port
+ (ICAP). The ICAP enables partial reconfiguration of the FPGA,
+ readback of the configuration information, and some control over
+ 'warm boots' of the FPGA fabric.
+
+ Required properties:
+ - xlnx,family : The family of the FPGA, necessary since the
+ capabilities of the underlying ICAP hardware
+ differ between different families. May be
+ 'virtex2p', 'virtex4', or 'virtex5'.
+
+ vi) Xilinx Uart 16550
+
+ Xilinx UART 16550 devices are very similar to the NS16550 but with
+ different register spacing and an offset from the base address.
+
+ Required properties:
+ - clock-frequency : Frequency of the clock input
+ - reg-offset : A value of 3 is required
+ - reg-shift : A value of 2 is required
+
+ f) USB EHCI controllers
+
+ Required properties:
+ - compatible : should be "usb-ehci".
+ - reg : should contain at least address and length of the standard EHCI
+ register set for the device. Optional platform-dependent registers
+ (debug-port or other) can be also specified here, but only after
+ definition of standard EHCI registers.
+ - interrupts : one EHCI interrupt should be described here.
+ If device registers are implemented in big endian mode, the device
+ node should have "big-endian-regs" property.
+ If controller implementation operates with big endian descriptors,
+ "big-endian-desc" property should be specified.
+ If both big endian registers and descriptors are used by the controller
+ implementation, "big-endian" property can be specified instead of having
+ both "big-endian-regs" and "big-endian-desc".
+
+ Example (Sequoia 440EPx):
+ ehci@e0000300 {
+ compatible = "ibm,usb-ehci-440epx", "usb-ehci";
+ interrupt-parent = <&UIC0>;
+ interrupts = <1a 4>;
+ reg = <0 e0000300 90 0 e0000390 70>;
+ big-endian;
+ };
+
+ g) MDIO on GPIOs
+
+ Currently defined compatibles:
+ - virtual,gpio-mdio
+
+ MDC and MDIO lines connected to GPIO controllers are listed in the
+ gpios property as described in section VIII.1 in the following order:
+
+ MDC, MDIO.
+
+ Example:
+
+ mdio {
+ compatible = "virtual,mdio-gpio";
+ #address-cells = <1>;
+ #size-cells = <0>;
+ gpios = <&qe_pio_a 11
+ &qe_pio_c 6>;
+ };
+
+ h) SPI (Serial Peripheral Interface) busses
+
+ SPI busses can be described with a node for the SPI master device
+ and a set of child nodes for each SPI slave on the bus. For this
+ discussion, it is assumed that the system's SPI controller is in
+ SPI master mode. This binding does not describe SPI controllers
+ in slave mode.
+
+ The SPI master node requires the following properties:
+ - #address-cells - number of cells required to define a chip select
+ address on the SPI bus.
+ - #size-cells - should be zero.
+ - compatible - name of SPI bus controller following generic names
+ recommended practice.
+ No other properties are required in the SPI bus node. It is assumed
+ that a driver for an SPI bus device will understand that it is an SPI bus.
+ However, the binding does not attempt to define the specific method for
+ assigning chip select numbers. Since SPI chip select configuration is
+ flexible and non-standardized, it is left out of this binding with the
+ assumption that board specific platform code will be used to manage
+ chip selects. Individual drivers can define additional properties to
+ support describing the chip select layout.
+
+ SPI slave nodes must be children of the SPI master node and can
+ contain the following properties.
+ - reg - (required) chip select address of device.
+ - compatible - (required) name of SPI device following generic names
+ recommended practice
+ - spi-max-frequency - (required) Maximum SPI clocking speed of device in Hz
+ - spi-cpol - (optional) Empty property indicating device requires
+ inverse clock polarity (CPOL) mode
+ - spi-cpha - (optional) Empty property indicating device requires
+ shifted clock phase (CPHA) mode
+ - spi-cs-high - (optional) Empty property indicating device requires
+ chip select active high
+
+ SPI example for an MPC5200 SPI bus:
+ spi@f00 {
+ #address-cells = <1>;
+ #size-cells = <0>;
+ compatible = "fsl,mpc5200b-spi","fsl,mpc5200-spi";
+ reg = <0xf00 0x20>;
+ interrupts = <2 13 0 2 14 0>;
+ interrupt-parent = <&mpc5200_pic>;
+
+ ethernet-switch@0 {
+ compatible = "micrel,ks8995m";
+ spi-max-frequency = <1000000>;
+ reg = <0>;
+ };
+
+ codec@1 {
+ compatible = "ti,tlv320aic26";
+ spi-max-frequency = <100000>;
+ reg = <1>;

+VII - Marvell Discovery mv64[345]6x System Controller chips
+===========================================================
+
+The Marvell mv64[345]60 series of system controller chips contain
+many of the peripherals needed to implement a complete computer
+system. In this section, we define device tree nodes to describe
+the system controller chip itself and each of the peripherals
+which it contains. Compatible string values for each node are
+prefixed with the string "marvell,", for Marvell Technology Group Ltd.
+
+1) The /system-controller node
+
+ This node is used to represent the system-controller and must be
+ present when the system uses a system controller chip. The top-level
+ system-controller node contains information that is global to all
+ devices within the system controller chip. The node name begins
+ with "system-controller" followed by the unit address, which is
+ the base address of the memory-mapped register set for the system
+ controller chip.
+
+ Required properties:
+
+ - ranges : Describes the translation of system controller addresses
+ for memory mapped registers.
+ - clock-frequency: Contains the main clock frequency for the system
+ controller chip.
+ - reg : This property defines the address and size of the
+ memory-mapped registers contained within the system controller
+ chip. The address specified in the "reg" property should match
+ the unit address of the system-controller node.
+ - #address-cells : Address representation for system controller
+ devices. This field represents the number of cells needed to
+ represent the address of the memory-mapped registers of devices
+ within the system controller chip.
+ - #size-cells : Size representation for for the memory-mapped
+ registers within the system controller chip.
+ - #interrupt-cells : Defines the width of cells used to represent
+ interrupts.
+
+ Optional properties:
+
+ - model : The specific model of the system controller chip. Such
+ as, "mv64360", "mv64460", or "mv64560".
+ - compatible : A string identifying the compatibility identifiers
+ of the system controller chip.
+
+ The system-controller node contains child nodes for each system
+ controller device that the platform uses. Nodes should not be created
+ for devices which exist on the system controller chip but are not used
+
+ Example Marvell Discovery mv64360 system-controller node:
+
+ system-controller@f1000000 { /* Marvell Discovery mv64360 */
+ #address-cells = <1>;
+ #size-cells = <1>;
+ model = "mv64360"; /* Default */
+ compatible = "marvell,mv64360";
+ clock-frequency = <133333333>;
+ reg = <0xf1000000 0x10000>;
+ virtual-reg = <0xf1000000>;
+ ranges = <0x88000000 0x88000000 0x1000000 /* PCI 0 I/O Space */
+ 0x80000000 0x80000000 0x8000000 /* PCI 0 MEM Space */
+ 0xa0000000 0xa0000000 0x4000000 /* User FLASH */
+ 0x00000000 0xf1000000 0x0010000 /* Bridge's regs */
+ 0xf2000000 0xf2000000 0x0040000>;/* Integrated SRAM */

+2) Child nodes of /system-controller
+
+ a) Marvell Discovery MDIO bus

+
+ b) Marvell Discovery ethernet controller
+
+ The Discover ethernet controller is described with two levels
+ of nodes. The first level describes an ethernet silicon block
+ and the second level describes up to 3 ethernet nodes within
+ that block. The reason for the multiple levels is that the
+ registers for the node are interleaved within a single set
+ of registers. The "ethernet-block" level describes the
+ shared register set, and the "ethernet" nodes describe ethernet
+ port-specific properties.

+
+
+VIII - Specifying interrupt information for devices
+===================================================
+
+The device tree represents the busses and devices of a hardware
+system in a form similar to the physical bus topology of the
+hardware.
+
+In addition, a logical 'interrupt tree' exists which represents the
+hierarchy and routing of interrupts in the hardware.
+
+The interrupt tree model is fully described in the
+document "Open Firmware Recommended Practice: Interrupt
+Mapping Version 0.9". The document is available at:
+<http://playground.sun.com/1275/practice>.
+
+1) interrupts property
+----------------------
+
+Devices that generate interrupts to a single interrupt controller
+should use the conventional OF representation described in the
+OF interrupt mapping documentation.
+
+Each device which generates interrupts must have an 'interrupt'
+property. The interrupt property value is an arbitrary number of
+of 'interrupt specifier' values which describe the interrupt or
+interrupts for the device.
+
+The encoding of an interrupt specifier is determined by the
+interrupt domain in which the device is located in the
+interrupt tree. The root of an interrupt domain specifies in
+its #interrupt-cells property the number of 32-bit cells
+required to encode an interrupt specifier. See the OF interrupt
+mapping documentation for a detailed description of domains.
+
+For example, the binding for the OpenPIC interrupt controller
+specifies an #interrupt-cells value of 2 to encode the interrupt
+number and level/sense information. All interrupt children in an
+OpenPIC interrupt domain use 2 cells per interrupt in their interrupts
+property.
+
+The PCI bus binding specifies a #interrupt-cell value of 1 to encode
+which interrupt pin (INTA,INTB,INTC,INTD) is used.
+
+2) interrupt-parent property
+----------------------------
+
+The interrupt-parent property is specified to define an explicit
+link between a device node and its interrupt parent in
+the interrupt tree. The value of interrupt-parent is the
+phandle of the parent node.
+
+If the interrupt-parent property is not defined for a node, it's
+interrupt parent is assumed to be an ancestor in the node's
+_device tree_ hierarchy.
+
+3) OpenPIC Interrupt Controllers
+--------------------------------
+
+OpenPIC interrupt controllers require 2 cells to encode
+interrupt information. The first cell defines the interrupt
+number. The second cell defines the sense and level
+information.
+
+Sense and level information should be encoded as follows:
+
+ 0 = low to high edge sensitive type enabled
+ 1 = active low level sensitive type enabled
+ 2 = active high level sensitive type enabled
+ 3 = high to low edge sensitive type enabled
+
+4) ISA Interrupt Controllers
+----------------------------
+
+ISA PIC interrupt controllers require 2 cells to encode
+interrupt information. The first cell defines the interrupt
+number. The second cell defines the sense and level
+information.
+
+ISA PIC interrupt controllers should adhere to the ISA PIC
+encodings listed below:
+
+ 0 = active low level sensitive type enabled
+ 1 = active high level sensitive type enabled
+ 2 = high to low edge sensitive type enabled
+ 3 = low to high edge sensitive type enabled
+
+IX - Specifying GPIO information for devices
+============================================
+
+1) gpios property
+-----------------
+
+Nodes that makes use of GPIOs should define them using `gpios' property,
+format of which is: <&gpio-controller1-phandle gpio1-specifier
+ &gpio-controller2-phandle gpio2-specifier
+ 0 /* holes are permitted, means no GPIO 3 */
+ &gpio-controller4-phandle gpio4-specifier
+ ...>;
+
+Note that gpio-specifier length is controller dependent.
+
+gpio-specifier may encode: bank, pin position inside the bank,
+whether pin is open-drain and whether pin is logically inverted.
+
+Example of the node using GPIOs:
+
+ node {
+ gpios = <&qe_pio_e 18 0>;
+ };
+
+In this example gpio-specifier is "18 0" and encodes GPIO pin number,
+and empty GPIO flags as accepted by the "qe_pio_e" gpio-controller.
+
+2) gpio-controller nodes
+------------------------
+
+Every GPIO controller node must have #gpio-cells property defined,
+this information will be used to translate gpio-specifiers.
+
+Example of two SOC GPIO banks defined as gpio-controller nodes:
+

+X - Specifying Device Power Management Information (sleep property)
+===================================================================
+
+Devices on SOCs often have mechanisms for placing devices into low-power
+states that are decoupled from the devices' own register blocks. Sometimes,
+this information is more complicated than a cell-index property can
+reasonably describe. Thus, each device controlled in such a manner
+may contain a "sleep" property which describes these connections.
+
+The sleep property consists of one or more sleep resources, each of
+which consists of a phandle to a sleep controller, followed by a
+controller-specific sleep specifier of zero or more cells.
+
+The semantics of what type of low power modes are possible are defined
+by the sleep controller. Some examples of the types of low power modes
+that may be supported are:
+
+ - Dynamic: The device may be disabled or enabled at any time.
+ - System Suspend: The device may request to be disabled or remain
+ awake during system suspend, but will not be disabled until then.
+ - Permanent: The device is disabled permanently (until the next hard
+ reset).
+
+Some devices may share a clock domain with each other, such that they should
+only be suspended when none of the devices are in use. Where reasonable,
+such nodes should be placed on a virtual bus, where the bus has the sleep
+property. If the clock domain is shared among devices that cannot be
+reasonably grouped in this manner, then create a virtual sleep controller
+(similar to an interrupt nexus, except that defining a standardized
+sleep-map should wait until its necessity is demonstrated).

+The PowerPC boot wrapper
+------------------------
+Copyright (C) Secret Lab Technologies Ltd.
+
+PowerPC image targets compresses and wraps the kernel image (vmlinux) with
+a boot wrapper to make it usable by the system firmware. There is no
+standard PowerPC firmware interface, so the boot wrapper is designed to
+be adaptable for each kind of image that needs to be built.
+
+The boot wrapper can be found in the arch/powerpc/boot/ directory. The
+Makefile in that directory has targets for all the available image types.
+The different image types are used to support all of the various firmware
+interfaces found on PowerPC platforms. OpenFirmware is the most commonly
+used firmware type on general purpose PowerPC systems from Apple, IBM and
+others. U-Boot is typically found on embedded PowerPC hardware, but there
+are a handful of other firmware implementations which are also popular. Each
+firmware interface requires a different image format.
+
+The boot wrapper is built from the makefile in arch/powerpc/boot/Makefile and
+it uses the wrapper script (arch/powerpc/boot/wrapper) to generate target
+image. The details of the build system is discussed in the next section.
+Currently, the following image format targets exist:
+
+ cuImage.%: Backwards compatible uImage for older version of
+ U-Boot (for versions that don't understand the device
+ tree). This image embeds a device tree blob inside
+ the image. The boot wrapper, kernel and device tree
+ are all embedded inside the U-Boot uImage file format
+ with boot wrapper code that extracts data from the old
+ bd_info structure and loads the data into the device
+ tree before jumping into the kernel.
+ Because of the series of #ifdefs found in the
+ bd_info structure used in the old U-Boot interfaces,
+ cuImages are platform specific. Each specific
+ U-Boot platform has a different platform init file
+ which populates the embedded device tree with data
+ from the platform specific bd_info file. The platform
+ specific cuImage platform init code can be found in
+ arch/powerpc/boot/cuboot.*.c. Selection of the correct
+ cuImage init code for a specific board can be found in
+ the wrapper structure.
+ dtbImage.%: Similar to zImage, except device tree blob is embedded
+ inside the image instead of provided by firmware. The
+ output image file can be either an elf file or a flat
+ binary depending on the platform.
+ dtbImages are used on systems which do not have an
+ interface for passing a device tree directly.
+ dtbImages are similar to simpleImages except that
+ dtbImages have platform specific code for extracting
+ data from the board firmware, but simpleImages do not
+ talk to the firmware at all.
+ PlayStation 3 support uses dtbImage. So do Embedded
+ Planet boards using the PlanetCore firmware. Board
+ specific initialization code is typically found in a
+ file named arch/powerpc/boot/<platform>.c; but this
+ can be overridden by the wrapper script.
+ simpleImage.%: Firmware independent compressed image that does not
+ depend on any particular firmware interface and embeds
+ a device tree blob. This image is a flat binary that
+ can be loaded to any location in RAM and jumped to.
+ Firmware cannot pass any configuration data to the
+ kernel with this image type and it depends entirely on
+ the embedded device tree for all information.
+ The simpleImage is useful for booting systems with
+ an unknown firmware interface or for booting from
+ a debugger when no firmware is present (such as on
+ the Xilinx Virtex platform). The only assumption that
+ simpleImage makes is that RAM is correctly initialized
+ and that the MMU is either off or has RAM mapped to
+ base address 0.
+ simpleImage also supports inserting special platform
+ specific initialization code to the start of the bootup
+ sequence. The virtex405 platform uses this feature to
+ ensure that the cache is invalidated before caching
+ is enabled. Platform specific initialization code is
+ added as part of the wrapper script and is keyed on
+ the image target name. For example, all
+ simpleImage.virtex405-* targets will add the
+ virtex405-head.S initialization code (This also means
+ that the dts file for virtex405 targets should be
+ named (virtex405-<board>.dts). Search the wrapper
+ script for 'virtex405' and see the file
+ arch/powerpc/boot/virtex405-head.S for details.
+ treeImage.%; Image format for used with OpenBIOS firmware found
+ on some ppc4xx hardware. This image embeds a device
+ tree blob inside the image.
+ uImage: Native image format used by U-Boot. The uImage target
+ does not add any boot code. It just wraps a compressed
+ vmlinux in the uImage data structure. This image
+ requires a version of U-Boot that is able to pass
+ a device tree to the kernel at boot. If using an older
+ version of U-Boot, then you need to use a cuImage
+ instead.
+ zImage.%: Image format which does not embed a device tree.
+ Used by OpenFirmware and other firmware interfaces
+ which are able to supply a device tree. This image
+ expects firmware to provide the device tree at boot.
+ Typically, if you have general purpose PowerPC
+ hardware then you want this image format.
+
+Image types which embed a device tree blob (simpleImage, dtbImage, treeImage,
+and cuImage) all generate the device tree blob from a file in the
+arch/powerpc/boot/dts/ directory. The Makefile selects the correct device
+tree source based on the name of the target. Therefore, if the kernel is
+built with 'make treeImage.walnut simpleImage.virtex405-ml403', then the
+build system will use arch/powerpc/boot/dts/walnut.dts to build
+treeImage.walnut and arch/powerpc/boot/dts/virtex405-ml403.dts to build
+the simpleImage.virtex405-ml403.
+
+Two special targets called 'zImage' and 'zImage.initrd' also exist. These
+targets build all the default images as selected by the kernel configuration.
+Default images are selected by the boot wrapper Makefile
+(arch/powerpc/boot/Makefile) by adding targets to the $image-y variable. Look
+at the Makefile to see which default image targets are available.
+
+How it is built
+---------------
+arch/powerpc is designed to support multiplatform kernels, which means
+that a single vmlinux image can be booted on many different target boards.
+It also means that the boot wrapper must be able to wrap for many kinds of
+images on a single build. The design decision was made to not use any
+conditional compilation code (#ifdef, etc) in the boot wrapper source code.
+All of the boot wrapper pieces are buildable at any time regardless of the
+kernel configuration. Building all the wrapper bits on every kernel build
+also ensures that obscure parts of the wrapper are at the very least compile
+tested in a large variety of environments.
+
+The wrapper is adapted for different image types at link time by linking in
+just the wrapper bits that are appropriate for the image type. The 'wrapper
+script' (found in arch/powerpc/boot/wrapper) is called by the Makefile and
+is responsible for selecting the correct wrapper bits for the image type.
+The arguments are well documented in the script's comment block, so they
+are not repeated here. However, it is worth mentioning that the script
+uses the -p (platform) argument as the main method of deciding which wrapper
+bits to compile in. Look for the large 'case "$platform" in' block in the
+middle of the script. This is also the place where platform specific fixups
+can be selected by changing the link order.
+
+In particular, care should be taken when working with cuImages. cuImage
+wrapper bits are very board specific and care should be taken to make sure
+the target you are trying to build is supported by the wrapper bits.

+Hollis Blanchard <hollis@austin.ibm.com>
+5 Jun 2002
+
+This document describes the system (including self-modifying code) used in the
+PPC Linux kernel to support a variety of PowerPC CPUs without requiring
+compile-time selection.
+
+Early in the boot process the ppc32 kernel detects the current CPU type and
+chooses a set of features accordingly. Some examples include Altivec support,
+split instruction and data caches, and if the CPU supports the DOZE and NAP
+sleep modes.
+
+Detection of the feature set is simple. A list of processors can be found in
+arch/ppc/kernel/cputable.c. The PVR register is masked and compared with each
+value in the list. If a match is found, the cpu_features of cur_cpu_spec is
+assigned to the feature bitmask for this processor and a __setup_cpu function
+is called.
+
+C code may test 'cur_cpu_spec[smp_processor_id()]->cpu_features' for a
+particular feature bit. This is done in quite a few places, for example
+in ppc_setup_l2cr().
+
+Implementing cpufeatures in assembly is a little more involved. There are
+several paths that are performance-critical and would suffer if an array
+index, structure dereference, and conditional branch were added. To avoid the
+performance penalty but still allow for runtime (rather than compile-time) CPU
+selection, unused code is replaced by 'nop' instructions. This nop'ing is
+based on CPU 0's capabilities, so a multi-processor system with non-identical
+processors will not work (but such a system would likely have other problems
+anyways).
+
+After detecting the processor type, the kernel patches out sections of code
+that shouldn't be used by writing nop's over it. Using cpufeatures requires
+just 2 macros (found in include/asm-ppc/cputable.h), as seen in head.S
+transfer_to_handler:
+
+ #ifdef CONFIG_ALTIVEC
+ BEGIN_FTR_SECTION
+ mfspr r22,SPRN_VRSAVE /* if G4, save vrsave register value */
+ stw r22,THREAD_VRSAVE(r23)
+ END_FTR_SECTION_IFSET(CPU_FTR_ALTIVEC)
+ #endif /* CONFIG_ALTIVEC */
+
+If CPU 0 supports Altivec, the code is left untouched. If it doesn't, both
+instructions are replaced with nop's.
+
+The END_FTR_SECTION macro has two simpler variations: END_FTR_SECTION_IFSET
+and END_FTR_SECTION_IFCLR. These simply test if a flag is set (in
+cur_cpu_spec[0]->cpu_features) or is cleared, respectively. These two macros
+should be used in the majority of cases.
+
+The END_FTR_SECTION macros are implemented by storing information about this
+code in the '__ftr_fixup' ELF section. When do_cpu_ftr_fixups
+(arch/ppc/kernel/misc.S) is invoked, it will iterate over the records in
+__ftr_fixup, and if the required feature is not present it will loop writing
+nop's from each BEGIN_FTR_SECTION to END_FTR_SECTION.

+- reg : Unless otherwise specified, the first resource represents the

+
+* Multi-User RAM (MURAM)
+
+The multi-user/dual-ported RAM is expressed as a bus under the CPM node.
+
+Ranges must be set up subject to the following restrictions:
+
+- Children's reg nodes must be offsets from the start of all muram, even
+ if the user-data area does not begin at zero.
+- If multiple range entries are used, the difference between the parent
+ address and the child address must be the same in all, so that a single
+ mapping can cover them all while maintaining the ability to determine
+ CPM-side offsets with pointer subtraction. It is recommended that
+ multiple range entries not be used.
+- A child address of zero must be translatable, even if no reg resources
+ contain it.
+
+A child "data" node must exist, compatible with "fsl,cpm-muram-data", to
+indicate the portion of muram that is usable by the OS for arbitrary
+purposes. The data node may have an arbitrary number of reg resources,
+all of which contribute to the allocatable muram pool.
+
+Example, based on mpc8272:
+ muram@0 {
+ #address-cells = <1>;
+ #size-cells = <1>;

+* I2C
+
+The I2C controller is expressed as a bus under the CPM node.
+
+Properties:
+- compatible : "fsl,cpm1-i2c", "fsl,cpm2-i2c"
+- reg : On CPM2 devices, the second resource doesn't specify the I2C
+ Parameter RAM itself, but the I2C_BASE field of the CPM2 Parameter RAM
+ (typically 0x8afc 0x2).
+- #address-cells : Should be one. The cell is the i2c device address with
+ the r/w bit set to zero.
+- #size-cells : Should be zero.
+- clock-frequency : Can be used to set the i2c clock frequency. If
+ unspecified, a default frequency of 60kHz is being used.
+The following two properties are deprecated. They are only used by legacy
+i2c drivers to find the bus to probe:
+- linux,i2c-index : Can be used to hard code an i2c bus number. By default,
+ the bus number is dynamically assigned by the i2c core.
+- linux,i2c-class : Can be used to override the i2c class. The class is used
+ by legacy i2c device drivers to find a bus in a specific context like
+ system management, video or sound. By default, I2C_CLASS_HWMON (1) is
+ being used. The definition of the classes can be found in
+ include/i2c/i2c.h
+
+Example, based on mpc823:
+
+ i2c@860 {
+ compatible = "fsl,mpc823-i2c",
+ "fsl,cpm1-i2c";
+ reg = <0x860 0x20 0x3c80 0x30>;

+i) Root QE device
+
+Required properties:
+- compatible : should be "fsl,qe";
+- model : precise model of the QE, Can be "QE", "CPM", or "CPM2"
+- reg : offset and length of the device registers.
+- bus-frequency : the clock frequency for QUICC Engine.
+
+Recommended properties
+- brg-frequency : the internal clock source frequency for baud-rate
+ generators in Hz.
+
+Example:
+ qe@e0100000 {
+ #address-cells = <1>;
+ #size-cells = <1>;
+ #interrupt-cells = <2>;
+ compatible = "fsl,qe";
+ ranges = <0 e0100000 00100000>;

+
+* Multi-User RAM (MURAM)
+
+Required properties:
+- compatible : should be "fsl,qe-muram", "fsl,cpm-muram".
+- mode : the could be "host" or "slave".
+- ranges : Should be defined as specified in 1) to describe the
+ translation of MURAM addresses.
+- data-only : sub-node which defines the address area under MURAM
+ bus that can be allocated as data/parameter
+
+Example:
+
+ muram@10000 {
+ compatible = "fsl,qe-muram", "fsl,cpm-muram";

+ - pin : pin number in the port.
+ - dir : direction of the pin, should encode as follows:
+
+ 0 = The pin is disabled
+ 1 = The pin is an output
+ 2 = The pin is an input
+ 3 = The pin is I/O
+
+ - open_drain : indicates the pin is normal or wired-OR:

+- cell-index : the ucc number(1-8), corresponding to UCCx in UM.
+- reg : Offset and length of the register set for the device
+- interrupts : <a b> where a is the interrupt number and b is a

+- port-number : for UART drivers, the port number to use, between 0 and 3.
+ This usually corresponds to the /dev/ttyQE device, e.g. <0> = /dev/ttyQE0.
+ The port number is added to the minor number of the device. Unlike the
+ CPM UART driver, the port-number is required for the QE UART driver.
+- soft-uart : for UART drivers, if specified this means the QE UART device
+ driver should use "Soft-UART" mode, which is needed on some SOCs that have
+ broken UART hardware. Soft-UART is provided via a microcode upload.

+ "none": clock source is disabled
+ "brg1" through "brg16": clock source is BRG1-BRG16, respectively

+The following two properties are deprecated. rx-clock has been replaced
+with rx-clock-name, and tx-clock has been replaced with tx-clock-name.
+Drivers that currently use the deprecated properties should continue to
+do so, in order to support older device trees, but they should be updated
+to check for the new properties first.
+- rx-clock : represents the UCC receive clock source.
+ 0x00 : clock source is disabled;
+ 0x1~0x10 : clock source is BRG1~BRG16 respectively;
+ 0x11~0x28: clock source is QE_CLK1~QE_CLK24 respectively.
+- tx-clock: represents the UCC transmit clock source;
+ 0x00 : clock source is disabled;
+ 0x1~0x10 : clock source is BRG1~BRG16 respectively;
+ 0x11~0x28: clock source is QE_CLK1~QE_CLK24 respectively.
+
+Required properties for network device_type:
+- mac-address : list of bytes representing the ethernet address.
+- phy-handle : The phandle for the PHY connected to this controller.

+
+Note on DMA channel compatible properties: The compatible property must say
+"fsl,elo-dma-channel" or "fsl,eloplus-dma-channel" to be used by the Elo DMA
+driver (fsldma). Any DMA channel used by fsldma cannot be used by another
+DMA driver, such as the SSI sound drivers for the MPC8610. Therefore, any DMA
+channel that should be used for another driver should not use
+"fsl,elo-dma-channel" or "fsl,eloplus-dma-channel". For the SSI drivers, for
+example, the compatible property should be "fsl,ssi-dma-channel". See ssi.txt
+for more information.

+
+Notes on fsl,playback-dma and fsl,capture-dma:
+
+On SOCs that have an SSI, specific DMA channels are hard-wired for playback
+and capture. On the MPC8610, for example, SSI1 must use DMA channel 0 for
+playback and DMA channel 1 for capture. SSI2 must use DMA channel 2 for
+playback and DMA channel 3 for capture. The developer can choose which
+DMA controller to use, but the channels themselves are hard-wired. The
+purpose of these two properties is to represent this hardware design.
+
+The device tree nodes for the DMA channels that are referenced by
+"fsl,playback-dma" and "fsl,capture-dma" must be marked as compatible with
+"fsl,ssi-dma-channel". The SOC-specific compatible string (e.g.
+"fsl,mpc8610-dma-channel") can remain. If these nodes are left as
+"fsl,elo-dma-channel" or "fsl,eloplus-dma-channel", then the generic Elo DMA
+drivers (fsldma) will attempt to use them, and it will conflict with the
+sound drivers.

+* MDIO IO device
+
+The MDIO is a bus to which the PHY devices are connected. For each
+device that exists on this bus, a child node should be created. See

+a PHY.
+
+Required properties:
+ - reg : Offset and length of the register set for the device
+ - compatible : Should define the compatible device type for the
+ mdio. Currently, this is most likely to be "fsl,gianfar-mdio"
+
+Example:
+
+ mdio@24520 {
+ reg = <24520 20>;
+ compatible = "fsl,gianfar-mdio";
+
+ ethernet-phy@0 {
+ ......
+ };
+ };
+
+
+* Gianfar-compatible ethernet nodes
+
+Properties:
+
+ - device_type : Should be "network"
+ - model : Model of the device. Can be "TSEC", "eTSEC", or "FEC"
+ - compatible : Should be "gianfar"
+ - reg : Offset and length of the register set for the device
+ - local-mac-address : List of bytes representing the ethernet address of
+ this controller
+ - interrupts : For FEC devices, the first interrupt is the device's
+ interrupt. For TSEC and eTSEC devices, the first interrupt is
+ transmit, the second is receive, and the third is error.
+ - phy-handle : The phandle for the PHY connected to this ethernet
+ controller.
+ - fixed-link : <a b c d e> where a is emulated phy id - choose any,
+ but unique to the all specified fixed-links, b is duplex - 0 half,
+ 1 full, c is link speed - d#10/d#100/d#1000, d is pause - 0 no
+ pause, 1 pause, e is asym_pause - 0 no asym_pause, 1 asym_pause.
+ - phy-connection-type : a string naming the controller/PHY interface type,
+ i.e., "mii" (default), "rmii", "gmii", "rgmii", "rgmii-id", "sgmii",
+ "tbi", or "rtbi". This property is only really needed if the connection
+ is of type "rgmii-id", as all other connection types are detected by

+
+ PCI Bus EEH Error Recovery
+ --------------------------
+ Linas Vepstas
+ <linas@austin.ibm.com>
+ 12 January 2005
+
+
+Overview:
+---------
+The IBM POWER-based pSeries and iSeries computers include PCI bus
+controller chips that have extended capabilities for detecting and
+reporting a large variety of PCI bus error conditions. These features
+go under the name of "EEH", for "Extended Error Handling". The EEH
+hardware features allow PCI bus errors to be cleared and a PCI
+card to be "rebooted", without also having to reboot the operating
+system.
+
+This is in contrast to traditional PCI error handling, where the
+PCI chip is wired directly to the CPU, and an error would cause
+a CPU machine-check/check-stop condition, halting the CPU entirely.
+Another "traditional" technique is to ignore such errors, which
+can lead to data corruption, both of user data or of kernel data,
+hung/unresponsive adapters, or system crashes/lockups. Thus,
+the idea behind EEH is that the operating system can become more
+reliable and robust by protecting it from PCI errors, and giving
+the OS the ability to "reboot"/recover individual PCI devices.
+
+Future systems from other vendors, based on the PCI-E specification,
+may contain similar features.
+
+
+Causes of EEH Errors
+--------------------
+EEH was originally designed to guard against hardware failure, such
+as PCI cards dying from heat, humidity, dust, vibration and bad
+electrical connections. The vast majority of EEH errors seen in
+"real life" are due to either poorly seated PCI cards, or,
+unfortunately quite commonly, due to device driver bugs, device firmware
+bugs, and sometimes PCI card hardware bugs.
+
+The most common software bug, is one that causes the device to
+attempt to DMA to a location in system memory that has not been
+reserved for DMA access for that card. This is a powerful feature,
+as it prevents what; otherwise, would have been silent memory
+corruption caused by the bad DMA. A number of device driver
+bugs have been found and fixed in this way over the past few
+years. Other possible causes of EEH errors include data or
+address line parity errors (for example, due to poor electrical
+connectivity due to a poorly seated card), and PCI-X split-completion
+errors (due to software, device firmware, or device PCI hardware bugs).
+The vast majority of "true hardware failures" can be cured by
+physically removing and re-seating the PCI card.
+
+
+Detection and Recovery
+----------------------
+In the following discussion, a generic overview of how to detect
+and recover from EEH errors will be presented. This is followed
+by an overview of how the current implementation in the Linux
+kernel does it. The actual implementation is subject to change,
+and some of the finer points are still being debated. These
+may in turn be swayed if or when other architectures implement
+similar functionality.
+
+When a PCI Host Bridge (PHB, the bus controller connecting the
+PCI bus to the system CPU electronics complex) detects a PCI error
+condition, it will "isolate" the affected PCI card. Isolation
+will block all writes (either to the card from the system, or
+from the card to the system), and it will cause all reads to
+return all-ff's (0xff, 0xffff, 0xffffffff for 8/16/32-bit reads).
+This value was chosen because it is the same value you would
+get if the device was physically unplugged from the slot.
+This includes access to PCI memory, I/O space, and PCI config
+space. Interrupts; however, will continued to be delivered.
+
+Detection and recovery are performed with the aid of ppc64
+firmware. The programming interfaces in the Linux kernel
+into the firmware are referred to as RTAS (Run-Time Abstraction
+Services). The Linux kernel does not (should not) access
+the EEH function in the PCI chipsets directly, primarily because
+there are a number of different chipsets out there, each with
+different interfaces and quirks. The firmware provides a
+uniform abstraction layer that will work with all pSeries
+and iSeries hardware (and be forwards-compatible).
+
+If the OS or device driver suspects that a PCI slot has been
+EEH-isolated, there is a firmware call it can make to determine if
+this is the case. If so, then the device driver should put itself
+into a consistent state (given that it won't be able to complete any
+pending work) and start recovery of the card. Recovery normally
+would consist of resetting the PCI device (holding the PCI #RST
+line high for two seconds), followed by setting up the device
+config space (the base address registers (BAR's), latency timer,
+cache line size, interrupt line, and so on). This is followed by a
+reinitialization of the device driver. In a worst-case scenario,
+the power to the card can be toggled, at least on hot-plug-capable
+slots. In principle, layers far above the device driver probably
+do not need to know that the PCI card has been "rebooted" in this
+way; ideally, there should be at most a pause in Ethernet/disk/USB
+I/O while the card is being reset.
+
+If the card cannot be recovered after three or four resets, the
+kernel/device driver should assume the worst-case scenario, that the
+card has died completely, and report this error to the sysadmin.
+In addition, error messages are reported through RTAS and also through
+syslogd (/var/log/messages) to alert the sysadmin of PCI resets.
+The correct way to deal with failed adapters is to use the standard
+PCI hotplug tools to remove and replace the dead card.
+
+
+Current PPC64 Linux EEH Implementation
+--------------------------------------
+At this time, a generic EEH recovery mechanism has been implemented,
+so that individual device drivers do not need to be modified to support
+EEH recovery. This generic mechanism piggy-backs on the PCI hotplug
+infrastructure, and percolates events up through the userspace/udev
+infrastructure. Following is a detailed description of how this is
+accomplished.
+
+EEH must be enabled in the PHB's very early during the boot process,
+and if a PCI slot is hot-plugged. The former is performed by
+eeh_init() in arch/powerpc/platforms/pseries/eeh.c, and the later by
+drivers/pci/hotplug/pSeries_pci.c calling in to the eeh.c code.
+EEH must be enabled before a PCI scan of the device can proceed.
+Current Power5 hardware will not work unless EEH is enabled;
+although older Power4 can run with it disabled. Effectively,
+EEH can no longer be turned off. PCI devices *must* be
+registered with the EEH code; the EEH code needs to know about
+the I/O address ranges of the PCI device in order to detect an
+error. Given an arbitrary address, the routine
+pci_get_device_by_addr() will find the pci device associated
+with that address (if any).
+
+The default arch/powerpc/include/asm/io.h macros readb(), inb(), insb(),
+etc. include a check to see if the i/o read returned all-0xff's.
+If so, these make a call to eeh_dn_check_failure(), which in turn
+asks the firmware if the all-ff's value is the sign of a true EEH
+error. If it is not, processing continues as normal. The grand
+total number of these false alarms or "false positives" can be
+seen in /proc/ppc64/eeh (subject to change). Normally, almost
+all of these occur during boot, when the PCI bus is scanned, where
+a large number of 0xff reads are part of the bus scan procedure.
+
+If a frozen slot is detected, code in
+arch/powerpc/platforms/pseries/eeh.c will print a stack trace to
+syslog (/var/log/messages). This stack trace has proven to be very
+useful to device-driver authors for finding out at what point the EEH
+error was detected, as the error itself usually occurs slightly
+beforehand.
+
+Next, it uses the Linux kernel notifier chain/work queue mechanism to
+allow any interested parties to find out about the failure. Device
+drivers, or other parts of the kernel, can use
+eeh_register_notifier(struct notifier_block *) to find out about EEH
+events. The event will include a pointer to the pci device, the
+device node and some state info. Receivers of the event can "do as
+they wish"; the default handler will be described further in this
+section.
+
+To assist in the recovery of the device, eeh.c exports the
+following functions:
+
+rtas_set_slot_reset() -- assert the PCI #RST line for 1/8th of a second
+rtas_configure_bridge() -- ask firmware to configure any PCI bridges
+ located topologically under the pci slot.
+eeh_save_bars() and eeh_restore_bars(): save and restore the PCI
+ config-space info for a device and any devices under it.
+
+
+A handler for the EEH notifier_block events is implemented in
+drivers/pci/hotplug/pSeries_pci.c, called handle_eeh_events().
+It saves the device BAR's and then calls rpaphp_unconfig_pci_adapter().
+This last call causes the device driver for the card to be stopped,
+which causes uevents to go out to user space. This triggers
+user-space scripts that might issue commands such as "ifdown eth0"
+for ethernet cards, and so on. This handler then sleeps for 5 seconds,
+hoping to give the user-space scripts enough time to complete.
+It then resets the PCI card, reconfigures the device BAR's, and
+any bridges underneath. It then calls rpaphp_enable_pci_slot(),
+which restarts the device driver and triggers more user-space
+events (for example, calling "ifup eth0" for ethernet cards).
+
+
+Device Shutdown and User-Space Events
+-------------------------------------
+This section documents what happens when a pci slot is unconfigured,
+focusing on how the device driver gets shut down, and on how the
+events get delivered to user-space scripts.
+
+Following is an example sequence of events that cause a device driver
+close function to be called during the first phase of an EEH reset.
+The following sequence is an example of the pcnet32 device driver.
+
+ rpa_php_unconfig_pci_adapter (struct slot *) // in rpaphp_pci.c
+ {
+ calls
+ pci_remove_bus_device (struct pci_dev *) // in /drivers/pci/remove.c
+ {
+ calls
+ pci_destroy_dev (struct pci_dev *)
+ {
+ calls
+ device_unregister (&dev->dev) // in /drivers/base/core.c
+ {
+ calls
+ device_del (struct device *)
+ {
+ calls
+ bus_remove_device() // in /drivers/base/bus.c
+ {
+ calls
+ device_release_driver()
+ {
+ calls
+ struct device_driver->remove() which is just
+ pci_device_remove() // in /drivers/pci/pci_driver.c
+ {
+ calls
+ struct pci_driver->remove() which is just
+ pcnet32_remove_one() // in /drivers/net/pcnet32.c
+ {
+ calls
+ unregister_netdev() // in /net/core/dev.c
+ {
+ calls
+ dev_close() // in /net/core/dev.c
+ {
+ calls dev->stop();
+ which is just pcnet32_close() // in pcnet32.c
+ {
+ which does what you wanted
+ to stop the device
+ }
+ }
+ }
+ which
+ frees pcnet32 device driver memory
+ }
+ }}}}}}
+
+
+ in drivers/pci/pci_driver.c,
+ struct device_driver->remove() is just pci_device_remove()
+ which calls struct pci_driver->remove() which is pcnet32_remove_one()
+ which calls unregister_netdev() (in net/core/dev.c)
+ which calls dev_close() (in net/core/dev.c)
+ which calls dev->stop() which is pcnet32_close()
+ which then does the appropriate shutdown.
+
+---
+Following is the analogous stack trace for events sent to user-space
+when the pci device is unconfigured.
+
+rpa_php_unconfig_pci_adapter() { // in rpaphp_pci.c
+ calls
+ pci_remove_bus_device (struct pci_dev *) { // in /drivers/pci/remove.c
+ calls
+ pci_destroy_dev (struct pci_dev *) {
+ calls
+ device_unregister (&dev->dev) { // in /drivers/base/core.c
+ calls
+ device_del(struct device * dev) { // in /drivers/base/core.c
+ calls
+ kobject_del() { //in /libs/kobject.c
+ calls
+ kobject_uevent() { // in /libs/kobject.c
+ calls
+ kset_uevent() { // in /lib/kobject.c
+ calls
+ kset->uevent_ops->uevent() // which is really just
+ a call to
+ dev_uevent() { // in /drivers/base/core.c
+ calls
+ dev->bus->uevent() which is really just a call to
+ pci_uevent () { // in drivers/pci/hotplug.c
+ which prints device name, etc....
+ }
+ }
+ then kobject_uevent() sends a netlink uevent to userspace
+ --> userspace uevent
+ (during early boot, nobody listens to netlink events and
+ kobject_uevent() executes uevent_helper[], which runs the
+ event process /sbin/hotplug)
+ }
+ }
+ kobject_del() then calls sysfs_remove_dir(), which would
+ trigger any user-space daemon that was watching /sysfs,
+ and notice the delete event.
+
+
+Pro's and Con's of the Current Design
+-------------------------------------
+There are several issues with the current EEH software recovery design,
+which may be addressed in future revisions. But first, note that the
+big plus of the current design is that no changes need to be made to
+individual device drivers, so that the current design throws a wide net.
+The biggest negative of the design is that it potentially disturbs
+network daemons and file systems that didn't need to be disturbed.
+
+-- A minor complaint is that resetting the network card causes
+ user-space back-to-back ifdown/ifup burps that potentially disturb
+ network daemons, that didn't need to even know that the pci
+ card was being rebooted.
+
+-- A more serious concern is that the same reset, for SCSI devices,
+ causes havoc to mounted file systems. Scripts cannot post-facto
+ unmount a file system without flushing pending buffers, but this
+ is impossible, because I/O has already been stopped. Thus,
+ ideally, the reset should happen at or below the block layer,
+ so that the file systems are not disturbed.
+
+ Reiserfs does not tolerate errors returned from the block device.
+ Ext3fs seems to be tolerant, retrying reads/writes until it does
+ succeed. Both have been only lightly tested in this scenario.
+
+ The SCSI-generic subsystem already has built-in code for performing
+ SCSI device resets, SCSI bus resets, and SCSI host-bus-adapter
+ (HBA) resets. These are cascaded into a chain of attempted
+ resets if a SCSI command fails. These are completely hidden
+ from the block layer. It would be very natural to add an EEH
+ reset into this chain of events.
+
+-- If a SCSI error occurs for the root device, all is lost unless
+ the sysadmin had the foresight to run /bin, /sbin, /etc, /var
+ and so on, out of ramdisk/tmpfs.
+
+
+Conclusions

+There's forward progress ...

+1. Driver Introduction:
+
+This is the device driver for the IBM Hypervisor Virtual Console Server,
+"hvcs". The IBM hvcs provides a tty driver interface to allow Linux user
+space applications access to the system consoles of logically partitioned
+operating systems (Linux and AIX) running on the same partitioned Power5
+ppc64 system. Physical hardware consoles per partition are not practical
+on this hardware so system consoles are accessed by this driver using
+firmware interfaces to virtual terminal devices.
+
+---------------------------------------------------------------------------
+2. System Requirements:
+
+This device driver was written using 2.6.4 Linux kernel APIs and will only
+build and run on kernels of this version or later.
+
+This driver was written to operate solely on IBM Power5 ppc64 hardware
+though some care was taken to abstract the architecture dependent firmware
+calls from the driver code.
+
+Sysfs must be mounted on the system so that the user can determine which
+major and minor numbers are associated with each vty-server. Directions
+for sysfs mounting are outside the scope of this document.
+
+---------------------------------------------------------------------------
+3. Build Options:
+
+The hvcs driver registers itself as a tty driver. The tty layer
+dynamically allocates a block of major and minor numbers in a quantity
+requested by the registering driver. The hvcs driver asks the tty layer
+for 64 of these major/minor numbers by default to use for hvcs device node
+entries.
+
+If the default number of device entries is adequate then this driver can be
+built into the kernel. If not, the default can be over-ridden by inserting
+the driver as a module with insmod parameters.
+
+---------------------------------------------------------------------------
+3.1 Built-in:

+driver into the kernel.

+Begin the kernel make process.
+
+---------------------------------------------------------------------------
+3.2 Module:
+
+The following menuconfig example demonstrates selecting to build this
+driver as a kernel module.
+
+ Device Drivers --->
+ Character devices --->
+ <M> IBM Hypervisor Virtual Console Server Support
+
+The make process will build the following kernel modules:
+
+ hvcs.ko
+ hvcserver.ko
+
+To insert the module with the default allocation execute the following
+commands in the order they appear:
+
+ insmod hvcserver.ko
+ insmod hvcs.ko
+
+The hvcserver module contains architecture specific firmware calls and must
+be inserted first, otherwise the hvcs module will not find some of the
+symbols it expects.
+
+To override the default use an insmod parameter as follows (requesting 4
+tty devices as an example):
+
+ insmod hvcs.ko hvcs_parm_num_devs=4
+
+There is a maximum number of dev entries that can be specified on insmod.
+We think that 1024 is currently a decent maximum number of server adapters
+to allow. This can always be changed by modifying the constant in the
+source file before building.
+
+NOTE: The length of time it takes to insmod the driver seems to be related
+to the number of tty interfaces the registering driver requests.
+
+In order to remove the driver module execute the following command:
+
+ rmmod hvcs.ko
+
+The recommended method for installing hvcs as a module is to use depmod to
+build a current modules.dep file in /lib/modules/`uname -r` and then
+execute:
+
+modprobe hvcs hvcs_parm_num_devs=4
+
+The modules.dep file indicates that hvcserver.ko needs to be inserted
+before hvcs.ko and modprobe uses this file to smartly insert the modules in
+the proper order.
+
+The following modprobe command is used to remove hvcs and hvcserver in the
+proper order:
+
+modprobe -r hvcs
+
+---------------------------------------------------------------------------
+4. Installation:
+
+The tty layer creates sysfs entries which contain the major and minor
+numbers allocated for the hvcs driver. The following snippet of "tree"
+output of the sysfs directory shows where these numbers are presented:
+
+ sys/
+ |-- *other sysfs base dirs*
+ |
+ |-- class
+ | |-- *other classes of devices*
+ | |
+ | `-- tty
+ | |-- *other tty devices*
+ | |
+ | |-- hvcs0
+ | | `-- dev
+ | |-- hvcs1
+ | | `-- dev
+ | |-- hvcs2
+ | | `-- dev
+ | |-- hvcs3
+ | | `-- dev
+ | |
+ | |-- *other tty devices*
+ |
+ |-- *other sysfs base dirs*
+
+For the above examples the following output is a result of cat'ing the
+"dev" entry in the hvcs directory:
+
+ Pow5:/sys/class/tty/hvcs0/ # cat dev
+ 254:0
+
+ Pow5:/sys/class/tty/hvcs1/ # cat dev
+ 254:1
+
+ Pow5:/sys/class/tty/hvcs2/ # cat dev
+ 254:2
+
+ Pow5:/sys/class/tty/hvcs3/ # cat dev
+ 254:3
+
+The output from reading the "dev" attribute is the char device major and
+minor numbers that the tty layer has allocated for this driver's use. Most
+systems running hvcs will already have the device entries created or udev
+will do it automatically.
+
+Given the example output above, to manually create a /dev/hvcs* node entry
+mknod can be used as follows:
+
+ mknod /dev/hvcs0 c 254 0
+ mknod /dev/hvcs1 c 254 1
+ mknod /dev/hvcs2 c 254 2
+ mknod /dev/hvcs3 c 254 3
+
+Using mknod to manually create the device entries makes these device nodes
+persistent. Once created they will exist prior to the driver insmod.
+
+Attempting to connect an application to /dev/hvcs* prior to insertion of
+the hvcs module will result in an error message similar to the following:
+
+ "/dev/hvcs*: No such device".
+
+NOTE: Just because there is a device node present doesn't mean that there
+is a vty-server device configured for that node.
+
+---------------------------------------------------------------------------
+5. Connection
+
+Since this driver controls devices that provide a tty interface a user can
+interact with the device node entries using any standard tty-interactive
+method (e.g. "cat", "dd", "echo"). The intent of this driver however, is
+to provide real time console interaction with a Linux partition's console,
+which requires the use of applications that provide bi-directional,
+interactive I/O with a tty device.
+
+Applications (e.g. "minicom" and "screen") that act as terminal emulators
+or perform terminal type control sequence conversion on the data being
+passed through them are NOT acceptable for providing interactive console
+I/O. These programs often emulate antiquated terminal types (vt100 and
+ANSI) and expect inbound data to take the form of one of these supported
+terminal types but they either do not convert, or do not _adequately_
+convert, outbound data into the terminal type of the terminal which invoked
+them (though screen makes an attempt and can apparently be configured with
+much termcap wrestling.)
+
+For this reason kermit and cu are two of the recommended applications for
+interacting with a Linux console via an hvcs device. These programs simply
+act as a conduit for data transfer to and from the tty device. They do not
+require inbound data to take the form of a particular terminal type, nor do
+they cook outbound data to a particular terminal type.
+
+In order to ensure proper functioning of console applications one must make
+sure that once connected to a /dev/hvcs console that the console's $TERM
+env variable is set to the exact terminal type of the terminal emulator
+used to launch the interactive I/O application. If one is using xterm and
+kermit to connect to /dev/hvcs0 when the console prompt becomes available
+one should "export TERM=xterm" on the console. This tells ncurses
+applications that are invoked from the console that they should output
+control sequences that xterm can understand.
+
+As a precautionary measure an hvcs user should always "exit" from their
+session before disconnecting an application such as kermit from the device
+node. If this is not done, the next user to connect to the console will
+continue using the previous user's logged in session which includes
+using the $TERM variable that the previous user supplied.
+
+Hotplug add and remove of vty-server adapters affects which /dev/hvcs* node
+is used to connect to each vty-server adapter. In order to determine which
+vty-server adapter is associated with which /dev/hvcs* node a special sysfs
+attribute has been added to each vty-server sysfs entry. This entry is
+called "index" and showing it reveals an integer that refers to the
+/dev/hvcs* entry to use to connect to that device. For instance cating the
+index attribute of vty-server adapter 30000004 shows the following.
+
+ Pow5:/sys/bus/vio/drivers/hvcs/30000004 # cat index
+ 2
+
+This index of '2' means that in order to connect to vty-server adapter
+30000004 the user should interact with /dev/hvcs2.
+
+It should be noted that due to the system hotplug I/O capabilities of a
+system the /dev/hvcs* entry that interacts with a particular vty-server
+adapter is not guaranteed to remain the same across system reboots. Look
+in the Q & A section for more on this issue.
+
+---------------------------------------------------------------------------
+6. Disconnection
+
+As a security feature to prevent the delivery of stale data to an
+unintended target the Power5 system firmware disables the fetching of data
+and discards that data when a connection between a vty-server and a vty has
+been severed. As an example, when a vty-server is immediately disconnected
+from a vty following output of data to the vty the vty adapter may not have
+enough time between when it received the data interrupt and when the
+connection was severed to fetch the data from firmware before the fetch is
+disabled by firmware.
+
+When hvcs is being used to serve consoles this behavior is not a huge issue
+because the adapter stays connected for large amounts of time following
+almost all data writes. When hvcs is being used as a tty conduit to tunnel
+data between two partitions [see Q & A below] this is a huge problem
+because the standard Linux behavior when cat'ing or dd'ing data to a device
+is to open the tty, send the data, and then close the tty. If this driver
+manually terminated vty-server connections on tty close this would close
+the vty-server and vty connection before the target vty has had a chance to
+fetch the data.
+
+Additionally, disconnecting a vty-server and vty only on module removal or
+adapter removal is impractical because other vty-servers in other
+partitions may require the usage of the target vty at any time.
+
+Due to this behavioral restriction disconnection of vty-servers from the
+connected vty is a manual procedure using a write to a sysfs attribute
+outlined below, on the other hand the initial vty-server connection to a
+vty is established automatically by this driver. Manual vty-server
+connection is never required.
+
+In order to terminate the connection between a vty-server and vty the
+"vterm_state" sysfs attribute within each vty-server's sysfs entry is used.
+Reading this attribute reveals the current connection state of the
+vty-server adapter. A zero means that the vty-server is not connected to a
+vty. A one indicates that a connection is active.
+
+Writing a '0' (zero) to the vterm_state attribute will disconnect the VTERM
+connection between the vty-server and target vty ONLY if the vterm_state
+previously read '1'. The write directive is ignored if the vterm_state
+read '0' or if any value other than '0' was written to the vterm_state
+attribute. The following example will show the method used for verifying
+the vty-server connection status and disconnecting a vty-server connection.
+
+ Pow5:/sys/bus/vio/drivers/hvcs/30000004 # cat vterm_state
+ 1
+
+ Pow5:/sys/bus/vio/drivers/hvcs/30000004 # echo 0 > vterm_state
+
+ Pow5:/sys/bus/vio/drivers/hvcs/30000004 # cat vterm_state
+ 0
+
+All vty-server connections are automatically terminated when the device is
+hotplug removed and when the module is removed.
+
+---------------------------------------------------------------------------
+7. Configuration
+
+Each vty-server has a sysfs entry in the /sys/devices/vio directory, which
+is symlinked in several other sysfs tree directories, notably under the
+hvcs driver entry, which looks like the following example:
+
+ Pow5:/sys/bus/vio/drivers/hvcs # ls
+ . .. 30000003 30000004 rescan
+
+By design, firmware notifies the hvcs driver of vty-server lifetimes and
+partner vty removals but not the addition of partner vtys. Since an HMC
+Super Admin can add partner info dynamically we have provided the hvcs
+driver sysfs directory with the "rescan" update attribute which will query
+firmware and update the partner info for all the vty-servers that this
+driver manages. Writing a '1' to the attribute triggers the update. An
+explicit example follows:
+
+ Pow5:/sys/bus/vio/drivers/hvcs # echo 1 > rescan
+
+Reading the attribute will indicate a state of '1' or '0'. A one indicates
+that an update is in process. A zero indicates that an update has
+completed or was never executed.
+
+Vty-server entries in this directory are a 32 bit partition unique unit
+address that is created by firmware. An example vty-server sysfs entry
+looks like the following:
+
+ Pow5:/sys/bus/vio/drivers/hvcs/30000004 # ls
+ . current_vty devspec name partner_vtys
+ .. index partner_clcs vterm_state
+
+Each entry is provided, by default with a "name" attribute. Reading the
+"name" attribute will reveal the device type as shown in the following
+example:
+
+ Pow5:/sys/bus/vio/drivers/hvcs/30000003 # cat name
+ vty-server
+
+Each entry is also provided, by default, with a "devspec" attribute which
+reveals the full device specification when read, as shown in the following
+example:
+
+ Pow5:/sys/bus/vio/drivers/hvcs/30000004 # cat devspec
+ /vdevice/vty-server@30000004
+
+Each vty-server sysfs dir is provided with two read-only attributes that
+provide lists of easily parsed partner vty data: "partner_vtys" and
+"partner_clcs".
+
+ Pow5:/sys/bus/vio/drivers/hvcs/30000004 # cat partner_vtys
+ 30000000
+ 30000001
+ 30000002
+ 30000000
+ 30000000
+
+ Pow5:/sys/bus/vio/drivers/hvcs/30000004 # cat partner_clcs
+ U5112.428.103048A-V3-C0
+ U5112.428.103048A-V3-C2
+ U5112.428.103048A-V3-C3
+ U5112.428.103048A-V4-C0
+ U5112.428.103048A-V5-C0
+
+Reading partner_vtys returns a list of partner vtys. Vty unit address
+numbering is only per-partition-unique so entries will frequently repeat.
+
+Reading partner_clcs returns a list of "converged location codes" which are
+composed of a system serial number followed by "-V*", where the '*' is the
+target partition number, and "-C*", where the '*' is the slot of the
+adapter. The first vty partner corresponds to the first clc item, the
+second vty partner to the second clc item, etc.
+
+A vty-server can only be connected to a single vty at a time. The entry,
+"current_vty" prints the clc of the currently selected partner vty when
+read.
+
+The current_vty can be changed by writing a valid partner clc to the entry
+as in the following example:
+
+ Pow5:/sys/bus/vio/drivers/hvcs/30000004 # echo U5112.428.10304
+ 8A-V4-C0 > current_vty
+
+Changing the current_vty when a vty-server is already connected to a vty
+does not affect the current connection. The change takes effect when the
+currently open connection is freed.
+
+Information on the "vterm_state" attribute was covered earlier on the
+chapter entitled "disconnection".
+
+---------------------------------------------------------------------------
+8. Questions & Answers:
+===========================================================================
+Q: What are the security concerns involving hvcs?
+
+A: There are three main security concerns:
+
+ 1. The creator of the /dev/hvcs* nodes has the ability to restrict
+ the access of the device entries to certain users or groups. It
+ may be best to create a special hvcs group privilege for providing
+ access to system consoles.
+
+ 2. To provide network security when grabbing the console it is
+ suggested that the user connect to the console hosting partition
+ using a secure method, such as SSH or sit at a hardware console.
+
+ 3. Make sure to exit the user session when done with a console or
+ the next vty-server connection (which may be from another
+ partition) will experience the previously logged in session.
+
+---------------------------------------------------------------------------
+Q: How do I multiplex a console that I grab through hvcs so that other
+people can see it:
+
+A: You can use "screen" to directly connect to the /dev/hvcs* device and
+setup a session on your machine with the console group privileges. As
+pointed out earlier by default screen doesn't provide the termcap settings
+for most terminal emulators to provide adequate character conversion from
+term type "screen" to others. This means that curses based programs may
+not display properly in screen sessions.
+
+---------------------------------------------------------------------------
+Q: Why are the colors all messed up?
+Q: Why are the control characters acting strange or not working?
+Q: Why is the console output all strange and unintelligible?
+
+A: Please see the preceding section on "Connection" for a discussion of how
+applications can affect the display of character control sequences.
+Additionally, just because you logged into the console using and xterm
+doesn't mean someone else didn't log into the console with the HMC console
+(vt320) before you and leave the session logged in. The best thing to do
+is to export TERM to the terminal type of your terminal emulator when you
+get the console. Additionally make sure to "exit" the console before you
+disconnect from the console. This will ensure that the next user gets
+their own TERM type set when they login.
+
+---------------------------------------------------------------------------
+Q: When I try to CONNECT kermit to an hvcs device I get:
+"Sorry, can't open connection: /dev/hvcs*"What is happening?
+
+A: Some other Power5 console mechanism has a connection to the vty and
+isn't giving it up. You can try to force disconnect the consoles from the
+HMC by right clicking on the partition and then selecting "close terminal".
+Otherwise you have to hunt down the people who have console authority. It
+is possible that you already have the console open using another kermit
+session and just forgot about it. Please review the console options for
+Power5 systems to determine the many ways a system console can be held.
+
+OR
+
+A: Another user may not have a connectivity method currently attached to a
+/dev/hvcs device but the vterm_state may reveal that they still have the
+vty-server connection established. They need to free this using the method
+outlined in the section on "Disconnection" in order for others to connect
+to the target vty.
+
+OR
+
+A: The user profile you are using to execute kermit probably doesn't have
+permissions to use the /dev/hvcs* device.
+
+OR
+
+A: You probably haven't inserted the hvcs.ko module yet but the /dev/hvcs*
+entry still exists (on systems without udev).
+
+OR
+
+A: There is not a corresponding vty-server device that maps to an existing
+/dev/hvcs* entry.
+
+---------------------------------------------------------------------------
+Q: When I try to CONNECT kermit to an hvcs device I get:
+"Sorry, write access to UUCP lockfile directory denied."
+
+A: The /dev/hvcs* entry you have specified doesn't exist where you said it
+does? Maybe you haven't inserted the module (on systems with udev).
+
+---------------------------------------------------------------------------
+Q: If I already have one Linux partition installed can I use hvcs on said
+partition to provide the console for the install of a second Linux
+partition?
+
+A: Yes granted that your are connected to the /dev/hvcs* device using
+kermit or cu or some other program that doesn't provide terminal emulation.
+
+---------------------------------------------------------------------------
+Q: Can I connect to more than one partition's console at a time using this
+driver?
+
+A: Yes. Of course this means that there must be more than one vty-server
+configured for this partition and each must point to a disconnected vty.
+
+---------------------------------------------------------------------------
+Q: Does the hvcs driver support dynamic (hotplug) addition of devices?
+
+A: Yes, if you have dlpar and hotplug enabled for your system and it has
+been built into the kernel the hvcs drivers is configured to dynamically
+handle additions of new devices and removals of unused devices.
+
+---------------------------------------------------------------------------
+Q: For some reason /dev/hvcs* doesn't map to the same vty-server adapter
+after a reboot. What happened?
+
+A: Assignment of vty-server adapters to /dev/hvcs* entries is always done
+in the order that the adapters are exposed. Due to hotplug capabilities of
+this driver assignment of hotplug added vty-servers may be in a different
+order than how they would be exposed on module load. Rebooting or
+reloading the module after dynamic addition may result in the /dev/hvcs*
+and vty-server coupling changing if a vty-server adapter was added in a
+slot inbetween two other vty-server adapters. Refer to the section above
+on how to determine which vty-server goes with which /dev/hvcs* node.
+Hint; look at the sysfs "index" attribute for the vty-server.
+
+---------------------------------------------------------------------------
+Q: Can I use /dev/hvcs* as a conduit to another partition and use a tty
+device on that partition as the other end of the pipe?
+
+A: Yes, on Power5 platforms the hvc_console driver provides a tty interface
+for extra /dev/hvc* devices (where /dev/hvc0 is most likely the console).
+In order to get a tty conduit working between the two partitions the HMC
+Super Admin must create an additional "serial server" for the target
+partition with the HMC gui which will show up as /dev/hvc* when the target
+partition is rebooted.
+
+The HMC Super Admin then creates an additional "serial client" for the
+current partition and points this at the target partition's newly created
+"serial server" adapter (remember the slot). This shows up as an
+additional /dev/hvcs* device.
+
+Now a program on the target system can be configured to read or write to
+/dev/hvc* and another program on the current partition can be configured to
+read or write to /dev/hvcs*. Now you have a tty conduit between two
+partitions.

+
+Various notes on the implementation of KVM for PowerPC 440:
+
+To enforce isolation, host userspace, guest kernel, and guest userspace all
+run at user privilege level. Only the host kernel runs in supervisor mode.
+Executing privileged instructions in the guest traps into KVM (in the host
+kernel), where we decode and emulate them. Through this technique, unmodified
+440 Linux kernels can be run (slowly) as guests. Future performance work will
+focus on reducing the overhead and frequency of these traps.
+
+The usual code flow is started from userspace invoking an "run" ioctl, which
+causes KVM to switch into guest context. We use IVPR to hijack the host
+interrupt vectors while running the guest, which allows us to direct all
+interrupts to kvmppc_handle_interrupt(). At this point, we could either
+- handle the interrupt completely (e.g. emulate "mtspr SPRG0"), or
+- let the host interrupt handler run (e.g. when the decrementer fires), or
+- return to host userspace (e.g. when the guest performs device MMIO)
+
+Address spaces: We take advantage of the fact that Linux doesn't use the AS=1
+address space (in host or guest), which gives us virtual address space to use
+for guest mappings. While the guest is running, the host kernel remains mapped
+in AS=0, but the guest can only use AS=1 mappings.
+
+TLB entries: The TLB entries covering the host linear mapping remain
+present while running the guest. This reduces the overhead of lightweight
+exits, which are handled by KVM running in the host kernel. We keep three
+copies of the TLB:
+ - guest TLB: contents of the TLB as the guest sees it
+ - shadow TLB: the TLB that is actually in hardware while guest is running
+ - host TLB: to restore TLB state when context switching guest -> host
+When a TLB miss occurs because a mapping was not present in the shadow TLB,
+but was present in the guest TLB, KVM handles the fault without invoking the
+guest. Large guest pages are backed by multiple 4KB shadow pages through this
+mechanism.
+
+IO: MMIO and DCR accesses are emulated by userspace. We use virtio for network
+and block IO, so those drivers must be enabled in the guest. It's possible
+that some qemu device emulation (e.g. e1000 or rtl8139) may also work with
+little effort.

+MPC5200 Device Tree Bindings

+(c) 2006-2007 Secret Lab Technologies Ltd
+Grant Likely <grant.likely at secretlab.ca>
+
+********** DRAFT ***********
+* WARNING: Do not depend on the stability of these bindings just yet.
+* The MPC5200 device tree conventions are still in flux
+* Keep an eye on the linuxppc-dev mailing list for more details
+********** DRAFT ***********
+
+I - Introduction
+================
+Boards supported by the arch/powerpc architecture require device tree be
+passed by the boot loader to the kernel at boot time. The device tree
+describes what devices are present on the board and how they are
+connected. The device tree can either be passed as a binary blob (as
+described in Documentation/powerpc/booting-without-of.txt), or passed
+by Open Firmware (IEEE 1275) compatible firmware using an OF compatible
+client interface API.
+
+This document specifies the requirements on the device-tree for mpc5200
+based boards. These requirements are above and beyond the details
+specified in either the Open Firmware spec or booting-without-of.txt
+
+All new mpc5200-based boards are expected to match this document. In
+cases where this document is not sufficient to support a new board port,
+this document should be updated as part of adding the new board support.
+
+II - Philosophy
+===============
+The core of this document is naming convention. The whole point of
+defining this convention is to reduce or eliminate the number of
+special cases required to support a 5200 board. If all 5200 boards
+follow the same convention, then generic 5200 support code will work
+rather than coding special cases for each new board.
+
+This section tries to capture the thought process behind why the naming
+convention is what it is.
+
+1. names
+---------
+There is strong convention/requirements already established for children
+of the root node. 'cpus' describes the processor cores, 'memory'
+describes memory, and 'chosen' provides boot configuration. Other nodes
+are added to describe devices attached to the processor local bus.
+
+Following convention already established with other system-on-chip
+processors, 5200 device trees should use the name 'soc5200' for the
+parent node of on chip devices, and the root node should be its parent.
+
+Child nodes are typically named after the configured function. ie.
+the FEC node is named 'ethernet', and a PSC in uart mode is named 'serial'.
+
+2. device_type property
+-----------------------
+similar to the node name convention above; the device_type reflects the
+configured function of a device. ie. 'serial' for a uart and 'spi' for
+an spi controller. However, while node names *should* reflect the
+configured function, device_type *must* match the configured function
+exactly.
+
+3. compatible property
+----------------------
+Since device_type isn't enough to match devices to drivers, there also
+needs to be a naming convention for the compatible property. Compatible
+is an list of device descriptions sorted from specific to generic. For
+the mpc5200, the required format for each compatible value is
+<chip>-<device>[-<mode>]. The OS should be able to match a device driver
+to the device based solely on the compatible value. If two drivers
+match on the compatible list; the 'most compatible' driver should be
+selected.
+
+The split between the MPC5200 and the MPC5200B leaves a bit of a
+conundrum. How should the compatible property be set up to provide
+maximum compatibility information; but still accurately describe the
+chip? For the MPC5200; the answer is easy. Most of the SoC devices
+originally appeared on the MPC5200. Since they didn't exist anywhere
+else; the 5200 compatible properties will contain only one item;
+"mpc5200-<device>".
+
+The 5200B is almost the same as the 5200, but not quite. It fixes
+silicon bugs and it adds a small number of enhancements. Most of the
+devices either provide exactly the same interface as on the 5200. A few
+devices have extra functions but still have a backwards compatible mode.
+To express this information as completely as possible, 5200B device trees
+should have two items in the compatible list;
+"mpc5200b-<device>\0mpc5200-<device>". It is *strongly* recommended
+that 5200B device trees follow this convention (instead of only listing
+the base mpc5200 item).
+
+If another chip appear on the market with one of the mpc5200 SoC
+devices, then the compatible list should include mpc5200-<device>.
+
+ie. ethernet on mpc5200: compatible = "mpc5200-ethernet"
+ ethernet on mpc5200b: compatible = "mpc5200b-ethernet\0mpc5200-ethernet"
+
+Modal devices, like PSCs, also append the configured function to the
+end of the compatible field. ie. A PSC in i2s mode would specify
+"mpc5200-psc-i2s", not "mpc5200-i2s". This convention is chosen to
+avoid naming conflicts with non-psc devices providing the same
+function. For example, "mpc5200-spi" and "mpc5200-psc-spi" describe
+the mpc5200 simple spi device and a PSC spi mode respectively.
+
+If the soc device is more generic and present on other SOCs, the
+compatible property can specify the more generic device type also.
+
+ie. mscan: compatible = "mpc5200-mscan\0fsl,mscan";
+
+At the time of writing, exact chip may be either 'mpc5200' or
+'mpc5200b'.
+
+Device drivers should always try to match as generically as possible.
+
+III - Structure
+===============
+The device tree for an mpc5200 board follows the structure defined in
+booting-without-of.txt with the following additional notes:
+
+0) the root node
+----------------
+Typical root description node; see booting-without-of
+
+1) The cpus node
+----------------
+The cpus node follows the basic layout described in booting-without-of.
+The bus-frequency property holds the XLB bus frequency
+The clock-frequency property holds the core frequency
+
+2) The memory node
+------------------
+Typical memory description node; see booting-without-of.
+
+3) The soc5200 node
+-------------------
+This node describes the on chip SOC peripherals. Every mpc5200 based
+board will have this node, and as such there is a common naming
+convention for SOC devices.
+
+Required properties:
+name type description
+---- ---- -----------
+device_type string must be "soc"
+ranges int should be <0 baseaddr baseaddr+10000>
+reg int must be <baseaddr 10000>
+compatible string mpc5200: "mpc5200-soc"
+ mpc5200b: "mpc5200b-soc\0mpc5200-soc"
+system-frequency int Fsystem frequency; source of all
+ other clocks.
+bus-frequency int IPB bus frequency in HZ. Clock rate
+ used by most of the soc devices.
+#interrupt-cells int must be <3>.
+
+Recommended properties:
+name type description
+---- ---- -----------
+model string Exact model of the chip;
+ ie: model="fsl,mpc5200"
+revision string Silicon revision of chip
+ ie: revision="M08A"
+
+The 'model' and 'revision' properties are *strongly* recommended. Having
+them presence acts as a bit of a safety net for working around as yet
+undiscovered bugs on one version of silicon. For example, device drivers
+can use the model and revision properties to decide if a bug fix should
+be turned on.
+
+4) soc5200 child nodes
+----------------------
+Any on chip SOC devices available to Linux must appear as soc5200 child nodes.
+
+Note: The tables below show the value for the mpc5200. A mpc5200b device
+tree should use the "mpc5200b-<device>\0mpc5200-<device> form.
+
+Required soc5200 child nodes:
+name device_type compatible Description
+---- ----------- ---------- -----------
+cdm@<addr> cdm mpc5200-cmd Clock Distribution
+pic@<addr> interrupt-controller mpc5200-pic need an interrupt
+ controller to boot
+bestcomm@<addr> dma-controller mpc5200-bestcomm 5200 pic also requires
+ the bestcomm device
+
+Recommended soc5200 child nodes; populate as needed for your board
+name device_type compatible Description
+---- ----------- ---------- -----------
+gpt@<addr> gpt fsl,mpc5200-gpt General purpose timers
+gpt@<addr> gpt fsl,mpc5200-gpt-gpio General purpose
+ timers in GPIO mode
+gpio@<addr> fsl,mpc5200-gpio MPC5200 simple gpio
+ controller
+gpio@<addr> fsl,mpc5200-gpio-wkup MPC5200 wakeup gpio
+ controller
+rtc@<addr> rtc mpc5200-rtc Real time clock
+mscan@<addr> mscan mpc5200-mscan CAN bus controller
+pci@<addr> pci mpc5200-pci PCI bridge
+serial@<addr> serial mpc5200-psc-uart PSC in serial mode
+i2s@<addr> sound mpc5200-psc-i2s PSC in i2s mode
+ac97@<addr> sound mpc5200-psc-ac97 PSC in ac97 mode
+spi@<addr> spi mpc5200-psc-spi PSC in spi mode
+irda@<addr> irda mpc5200-psc-irda PSC in IrDA mode
+spi@<addr> spi mpc5200-spi MPC5200 spi device
+ethernet@<addr> network mpc5200-fec MPC5200 ethernet device
+ata@<addr> ata mpc5200-ata IDE ATA interface
+i2c@<addr> i2c mpc5200-i2c I2C controller
+usb@<addr> usb-ohci-be mpc5200-ohci,ohci-be USB controller
+xlb@<addr> xlb mpc5200-xlb XLB arbitrator
+
+Important child node properties
+name type description
+---- ---- -----------
+cell-index int When multiple devices are present, is the
+ index of the device in the hardware (ie. There
+ are 6 PSC on the 5200 numbered PSC1 to PSC6)
+ PSC1 has 'cell-index = <0>'
+ PSC4 has 'cell-index = <3>'
+
+5) General Purpose Timer nodes (child of soc5200 node)
+On the mpc5200 and 5200b, GPT0 has a watchdog timer function. If the board
+design supports the internal wdt, then the device node for GPT0 should
+include the empty property 'fsl,has-wdt'.
+
+6) PSC nodes (child of soc5200 node)
+PSC nodes can define the optional 'port-number' property to force assignment
+order of serial ports. For example, PSC5 might be physically connected to
+the port labeled 'COM1' and PSC1 wired to 'COM1'. In this case, PSC5 would
+have a "port-number = <0>" property, and PSC1 would have "port-number = <1>".
+
+PSC in i2s mode: The mpc5200 and mpc5200b PSCs are not compatible when in
+i2s mode. An 'mpc5200b-psc-i2s' node cannot include 'mpc5200-psc-i2s' in the
+compatible field.
+
+7) GPIO controller nodes
+Each GPIO controller node should have the empty property gpio-controller and
+#gpio-cells set to 2. First cell is the GPIO number which is interpreted
+according to the bit numbers in the GPIO control registers. The second cell
+is for flags which is currently unsused.
+
+8) FEC nodes
+The FEC node can specify one of the following properties to configure
+the MII link:
+"fsl,7-wire-mode" - An empty property that specifies the link uses 7-wire
+ mode instead of MII
+"current-speed" - Specifies that the MII should be configured for a fixed
+ speed. This property should contain two cells. The
+ first cell specifies the speed in Mbps and the second
+ should be '0' for half duplex and '1' for full duplex
+"phy-handle" - Contains a phandle to an Ethernet PHY.
+
+IV - Extra Notes
+================
+
+1. Interrupt mapping
+--------------------
+The mpc5200 pic driver splits hardware IRQ numbers into two levels. The
+split reflects the layout of the PIC hardware itself, which groups
+interrupts into one of three groups; CRIT, MAIN or PERP. Also, the
+Bestcomm dma engine has it's own set of interrupt sources which are
+cascaded off of peripheral interrupt 0, which the driver interprets as a
+fourth group, SDMA.
+
+The interrupts property for device nodes using the mpc5200 pic consists
+of three cells; <L1 L2 level>
+
+ L1 := [CRIT=0, MAIN=1, PERP=2, SDMA=3]
+ L2 := interrupt number; directly mapped from the value in the
+ "ICTL PerStat, MainStat, CritStat Encoded Register"
+ level := [LEVEL_HIGH=0, EDGE_RISING=1, EDGE_FALLING=2, LEVEL_LOW=3]
+
+2. Shared registers
+-------------------
+Some SoC devices share registers between them. ie. the i2c devices use
+a single clock control register, and almost all device are affected by
+the port_config register. Devices which need to manipulate shared regs
+should look to the parent SoC node. The soc node is responsible
+for arbitrating all shared register access.

+
+ Hypervisor-Assisted Dump
+ ------------------------
+ November 2007
+
+The goal of hypervisor-assisted dump is to enable the dump of
+a crashed system, and to do so from a fully-reset system, and
+to minimize the total elapsed time until the system is back
+in production use.
+
+As compared to kdump or other strategies, hypervisor-assisted
+dump offers several strong, practical advantages:
+
+-- Unlike kdump, the system has been reset, and loaded
+ with a fresh copy of the kernel. In particular,
+ PCI and I/O devices have been reinitialized and are
+ in a clean, consistent state.
+-- As the dump is performed, the dumped memory becomes
+ immediately available to the system for normal use.
+-- After the dump is completed, no further reboots are
+ required; the system will be fully usable, and running
+ in it's normal, production mode on it normal kernel.
+
+The above can only be accomplished by coordination with,
+and assistance from the hypervisor. The procedure is
+as follows:
+
+-- When a system crashes, the hypervisor will save
+ the low 256MB of RAM to a previously registered
+ save region. It will also save system state, system
+ registers, and hardware PTE's.
+
+-- After the low 256MB area has been saved, the
+ hypervisor will reset PCI and other hardware state.
+ It will *not* clear RAM. It will then launch the
+ bootloader, as normal.
+
+-- The freshly booted kernel will notice that there
+ is a new node (ibm,dump-kernel) in the device tree,
+ indicating that there is crash data available from
+ a previous boot. It will boot into only 256MB of RAM,
+ reserving the rest of system memory.
+
+-- Userspace tools will parse /sys/kernel/release_region
+ and read /proc/vmcore to obtain the contents of memory,
+ which holds the previous crashed kernel. The userspace
+ tools may copy this info to disk, or network, nas, san,
+ iscsi, etc. as desired.
+
+ For Example: the values in /sys/kernel/release-region
+ would look something like this (address-range pairs).
+ CPU:0x177fee000-0x10000: HPTE:0x177ffe020-0x1000: /
+ DUMP:0x177fff020-0x10000000, 0x10000000-0x16F1D370A
+
+-- As the userspace tools complete saving a portion of
+ dump, they echo an offset and size to
+ /sys/kernel/release_region to release the reserved
+ memory back to general use.
+
+ An example of this is:
+ "echo 0x40000000 0x10000000 > /sys/kernel/release_region"
+ which will release 256MB at the 1GB boundary.
+
+Please note that the hypervisor-assisted dump feature
+is only available on Power6-based systems with recent
+firmware versions.
+
+Implementation details:
+----------------------
+
+During boot, a check is made to see if firmware supports
+this feature on this particular machine. If it does, then
+we check to see if a active dump is waiting for us. If yes
+then everything but 256 MB of RAM is reserved during early
+boot. This area is released once we collect a dump from user
+land scripts that are run. If there is dump data, then
+the /sys/kernel/release_region file is created, and
+the reserved memory is held.
+
+If there is no waiting dump data, then only the highest
+256MB of the ram is reserved as a scratch area. This area
+is *not* released: this region will be kept permanently
+reserved, so that it can act as a receptacle for a copy
+of the low 256MB in the case a crash does occur. See,
+however, "open issues" below, as to whether
+such a reserved region is really needed.
+
+Currently the dump will be copied from /proc/vmcore to a
+a new file upon user intervention. The starting address
+to be read and the range for each data point in provided
+in /sys/kernel/release_region.
+
+The tools to examine the dump will be same as the ones
+used for kdump.
+
+General notes:
+--------------
+Security: please note that there are potential security issues
+with any sort of dump mechanism. In particular, plaintext
+(unencrypted) data, and possibly passwords, may be present in
+the dump data. Userspace tools must take adequate precautions to
+preserve security.
+
+Open issues/ToDo:
+------------
+ o The various code paths that tell the hypervisor that a crash
+ occurred, vs. it simply being a normal reboot, should be
+ reviewed, and possibly clarified/fixed.
+
+ o Instead of using /sys/kernel, should there be a /sys/dump
+ instead? There is a dump_subsys being created by the s390 code,
+ perhaps the pseries code should use a similar layout as well.
+
+ o Is reserving a 256MB region really required? The goal of
+ reserving a 256MB scratch area is to make sure that no
+ important crash data is clobbered when the hypervisor
+ save low mem to the scratch area. But, if one could assure
+ that nothing important is located in some 256MB area, then
+ it would not need to be reserved. Something that can be
+ improved in subsequent versions.
+
+ o Still working the kdump team to integrate this with kdump,
+ some work remains but this would not affect the current
+ patches.
+
+ o Still need to write a shell script, to copy the dump away.
+ Currently I am parsing it manually.

+====================
+
+November 30, 2007: Rev 1.0 - Initial version
+
+I - Software License for Firmware
+=================================
+
+Each firmware file comes with its own software license. For information on
+the particular license, please see the license text that is distributed with
+the firmware.
+
+II - Microcode Availability
+===========================
+
+Firmware files are distributed through various channels. Some are available on
+http://opensource.freescale.com. For other firmware files, please contact
+your Freescale representative or your operating system vendor.
+
+III - Description and Terminology
+================================
+
+In this document, the term 'microcode' refers to the sequence of 32-bit
+integers that compose the actual QE microcode.
+
+The term 'firmware' refers to a binary blob that contains the microcode as
+well as other data that
+
+ 1) describes the microcode's purpose
+ 2) describes how and where to upload the microcode
+ 3) specifies the values of various registers
+ 4) includes additional data for use by specific device drivers
+
+Firmware files are binary files that contain only a firmware.
+
+IV - Microcode Programming Details
+===================================
+
+The QE architecture allows for only one microcode present in I-RAM for each
+RISC processor. To replace any current microcode, a full QE reset (which
+disables the microcode) must be performed first.
+
+QE microcode is uploaded using the following procedure:
+
+1) The microcode is placed into I-RAM at a specific location, using the
+ IRAM.IADD and IRAM.IDATA registers.
+
+2) The CERCR.CIR bit is set to 0 or 1, depending on whether the firmware
+ needs split I-RAM. Split I-RAM is only meaningful for SOCs that have
+ QEs with multiple RISC processors, such as the 8360. Splitting the I-RAM
+ allows each processor to run a different microcode, effectively creating an
+ asymmetric multiprocessing (AMP) system.
+
+3) The TIBCR trap registers are loaded with the addresses of the trap handlers
+ in the microcode.
+
+4) The RSP.ECCR register is programmed with the value provided.
+
+5) If necessary, device drivers that need the virtual traps and extended mode
+ data will use them.
+
+Virtual Microcode Traps
+
+These virtual traps are conditional branches in the microcode. These are
+"soft" provisional introduced in the ROMcode in order to enable higher
+flexibility and save h/w traps If new features are activated or an issue is
+being fixed in the RAM package utilizing they should be activated. This data
+structure signals the microcode which of these virtual traps is active.
+
+This structure contains 6 words that the application should copy to some
+specific been defined. This table describes the structure.
+

+
+ -----------------------------------------------------------------------

+
+V - Firmware Structure Layout
+==============================
+
+QE microcode from Freescale is typically provided as a header file. This
+header file contains macros that define the microcode binary itself as well as
+some other data used in uploading that microcode. The format of these files
+do not lend themselves to simple inclusion into other code. Hence,
+the need for a more portable format. This section defines that format.
+
+Instead of distributing a header file, the microcode and related data are
+embedded into a binary blob. This blob is passed to the qe_upload_firmware()
+function, which parses the blob and performs everything necessary to upload
+the microcode.
+
+All integers are big-endian. See the comments for function
+qe_upload_firmware() for up-to-date implementation information.
+
+This structure supports versioning, where the version of the structure is
+embedded into the structure itself. To ensure forward and backwards
+compatibility, all versions of the structure must use the same 'qe_header'
+structure at the beginning.
+
+'header' (type: struct qe_header):
+ The 'length' field is the size, in bytes, of the entire structure,
+ including all the microcode embedded in it, as well as the CRC (if
+ present).
+
+ The 'magic' field is an array of three bytes that contains the letters
+ 'Q', 'E', and 'F'. This is an identifier that indicates that this
+ structure is a QE Firmware structure.
+
+ The 'version' field is a single byte that indicates the version of this
+ structure. If the layout of the structure should ever need to be
+ changed to add support for additional types of microcode, then the
+ version number should also be changed.
+
+The 'id' field is a null-terminated string(suitable for printing) that
+identifies the firmware.
+
+The 'count' field indicates the number of 'microcode' structures. There
+must be one and only one 'microcode' structure for each RISC processor.
+Therefore, this field also represents the number of RISC processors for this
+SOC.
+
+The 'soc' structure contains the SOC numbers and revisions used to match
+the microcode to the SOC itself. Normally, the microcode loader should
+check the data in this structure with the SOC number and revisions, and
+only upload the microcode if there's a match. However, this check is not
+made on all platforms.
+
+Although it is not recommended, you can specify '0' in the soc.model
+field to skip matching SOCs altogether.
+
+The 'model' field is a 16-bit number that matches the actual SOC. The
+'major' and 'minor' fields are the major and minor revision numbers,
+respectively, of the SOC.
+
+For example, to match the 8323, revision 1.0:
+ soc.model = 8323
+ soc.major = 1
+ soc.minor = 0
+
+'padding' is neccessary for structure alignment. This field ensures that the
+'extended_modes' field is aligned on a 64-bit boundary.
+
+'extended_modes' is a bitfield that defines special functionality which has an
+impact on the device drivers. Each bit has its own impact and has special
+instructions for the driver associated with it. This field is stored in
+the QE library and available to any driver that calles qe_get_firmware_info().
+
+'vtraps' is an array of 8 words that contain virtual trap values for each
+virtual traps. As with 'extended_modes', this field is stored in the QE
+library and available to any driver that calles qe_get_firmware_info().
+
+'microcode' (type: struct qe_microcode):
+ For each RISC processor there is one 'microcode' structure. The first
+ 'microcode' structure is for the first RISC, and so on.
+
+ The 'id' field is a null-terminated string suitable for printing that
+ identifies this particular microcode.
+
+ 'traps' is an array of 16 words that contain hardware trap values
+ for each of the 16 traps. If trap[i] is 0, then this particular
+ trap is to be ignored (i.e. not written to TIBCR[i]). The entire value
+ is written as-is to the TIBCR[i] register, so be sure to set the EN
+ and T_IBP bits if necessary.
+
+ 'eccr' is the value to program into the ECCR register.
+
+ 'iram_offset' is the offset into IRAM to start writing the
+ microcode.
+
+ 'count' is the number of 32-bit words in the microcode.
+
+ 'code_offset' is the offset, in bytes, from the beginning of this
+ structure where the microcode itself can be found. The first
+ microcode binary should be located immediately after the 'microcode'
+ array.
+
+ 'major', 'minor', and 'revision' are the major, minor, and revision
+ version numbers, respectively, of the microcode. If all values are 0,
+ then these fields are ignored.
+
+ 'reserved' is necessary for structure alignment. Since 'microcode'
+ is an array, the 64-bit 'extended_modes' field needs to be aligned
+ on a 64-bit boundary, and this can only happen if the size of
+ 'microcode' is a multiple of 8 bytes. To ensure that, we add
+ 'reserved'.
+
+After the last microcode is a 32-bit CRC. It can be calculated using
+this algorithm:
+
+u32 crc32(const u8 *p, unsigned int len)
+{
+ unsigned int i;
+ u32 crc = 0;
+
+ while (len--) {
+ crc ^= *p++;
+ for (i = 0; i < 8; i++)
+ crc = (crc >> 1) ^ ((crc & 1) ? 0xedb88320 : 0);
+ }
+ return crc;
+}

+ Information about PowerPC Sound support
+=====================================================================
+
+Please mail me (Cort Dougan, cort@fsmlabs.com) if you have questions,
+comments or corrections.
+
+Last Change: 6.16.99
+
+This just covers sound on the PReP and CHRP systems for now and later
+will contain information on the PowerMac's.
+
+Sound on PReP has been tested and is working with the PowerStack and IBM
+Power Series onboard sound systems which are based on the cs4231(2) chip.
+The sound options when doing the make config are a bit different from
+the default, though.
+
+The I/O base, irq and dma lines that you enter during the make config
+are ignored and are set when booting according to the machine type.
+This is so that one binary can be used for Motorola and IBM machines
+which use different values and isn't allowed by the driver, so things
+are hacked together in such a way as to allow this information to be
+set automatically on boot.
+
+1. Motorola PowerStack PReP machines
+
+ Enable support for "Crystal CS4232 based (PnP) cards" and for the
+ Microsoft Sound System. The MSS isn't used, but some of the routines
+ that the CS4232 driver uses are in it.
+
+ Although the options you set are ignored and determined automatically
+ on boot these are included for information only:
+
+ (830) CS4232 audio I/O base 530, 604, E80 or F40
+ (10) CS4232 audio IRQ 5, 7, 9, 11, 12 or 15
+ (6) CS4232 audio DMA 0, 1 or 3
+ (7) CS4232 second (duplex) DMA 0, 1 or 3
+
+ This will allow simultaneous record and playback, as 2 different dma
+ channels are used.
+
+ The sound will be all left channel and very low volume since the
+ auxiliary input isn't muted by default. I had the changes necessary
+ for this in the kernel but the sound driver maintainer didn't want
+ to include them since it wasn't common in other machines. To fix this
+ you need to mute it using a mixer utility of some sort (if you find one
+ please let me know) or by patching the driver yourself and recompiling.
+
+ There is a problem on the PowerStack 2's (PowerStack Pro's) using a
+ different irq/drq than the kernel expects. Unfortunately, I don't know
+ which irq/drq it is so if anyone knows please email me.
+
+ Midi is not supported since the cs4232 driver doesn't support midi yet.
+
+2. IBM PowerPersonal PReP machines
+
+ I've only tested sound on the Power Personal Series of IBM workstations
+ so if you try it on others please let me know the result. I'm especially
+ interested in the 43p's sound system, which I know nothing about.
+
+ Enable support for "Crystal CS4232 based (PnP) cards" and for the
+ Microsoft Sound System. The MSS isn't used, but some of the routines
+ that the CS4232 driver uses are in it.
+
+ Although the options you set are ignored and determined automatically
+ on boot these are included for information only:
+
+ (530) CS4232 audio I/O base 530, 604, E80 or F40
+ (5) CS4232 audio IRQ 5, 7, 9, 11, 12 or 15
+ (1) CS4232 audio DMA 0, 1 or 3
+ (7) CS4232 second (duplex) DMA 0, 1 or 3
+ (330) CS4232 MIDI I/O base 330, 370, 3B0 or 3F0
+ (9) CS4232 MIDI IRQ 5, 7, 9, 11, 12 or 15
+
+ This setup does _NOT_ allow for recording yet.
+
+ Midi is not supported since the cs4232 driver doesn't support midi yet.
+
+2. IBM CHRP
+
+ I have only tested this on the 43P-150. Build the kernel with the cs4232
+ set as a module and load the module with irq=9 dma=1 dma2=2 io=0x550

+ Information about the Linux/PPC kernel images
+=====================================================================
+
+Please mail me (Cort Dougan, cort@fsmlabs.com) if you have questions,
+comments or corrections.
+
+This document is meant to answer several questions I've had about how
+the PReP system boots and how Linux/PPC interacts with that mechanism.
+It would be nice if we could have information on how other architectures
+boot here as well. If you have anything to contribute, please
+let me know.
+
+
+1. PReP boot file
+
+ This is the file necessary to boot PReP systems from floppy or
+ hard drive. The firmware reads the PReP partition table entry
+ and will load the image accordingly.
+
+ To boot the zImage, copy it onto a floppy with dd if=zImage of=/dev/fd0h1440
+ or onto a PReP hard drive partition with dd if=zImage of=/dev/sda4
+ assuming you've created a PReP partition (type 0x41) with fdisk on
+ /dev/sda4.
+
+ The layout of the image format is:
+
+ 0x0 +------------+
+ | | PReP partition table entry
+ | |
+ 0x400 +------------+
+ | | Bootstrap program code + data
+ | |
+ | |
+ +------------+
+ | | compressed kernel, elf header removed
+ +------------+
+ | | initrd (if loaded)
+ +------------+
+ | | Elf section table for bootstrap program
+ +------------+
+
+
+2. MBX boot file
+
+ The MBX boards can load an elf image, and relocate it to the
+ proper location in memory - it copies the image to the location it was
+ linked at.
