mailbox: ioctl to fetch mailbox size

2021-11-05T07:22:15+00:00

The size of mailbox differ from AST2500, AST2600 A0 and A1. Add an ioctl support to fetch the mailbox size. Tested: Verfied ioctl call returns mailbox size as expected. Change-Id: I4e261aaf8aa3fb108d6ad152d30a17b114d70ccd Signed-off-by: Arun P. Mohanan

Documentation jtag: Add JTAG core driver ioctl number

2021-11-05T07:22:08+00:00

JTAG class driver provide infrastructure to support hardware/software JTAG platform drivers. It provide user layer API interface for flashing and debugging external devices which equipped with JTAG interface using standard transactions. Driver exposes set of IOCTL to user space for: - XFER: SIR (Scan Instruction Register, IEEE 1149.1 Data Register scan); SDR (Scan Data Register, IEEE 1149.1 Instruction Register scan); - GIOCSTATUS read the current TAPC state of the JTAG controller - SIOCSTATE Forces the JTAG TAPC to go into a particular state. - SIOCFREQ/GIOCFREQ for setting and reading JTAG frequency. - IOCBITBANG for low level control of JTAG signals.

vduse: Introduce VDUSE - vDPA Device in Userspace

2021-09-06T11:20:58+00:00

This VDUSE driver enables implementing software-emulated vDPA devices in userspace. The vDPA device is created by ioctl(VDUSE_CREATE_DEV) on /dev/vduse/control. Then a char device interface (/dev/vduse/$NAME) is exported to userspace for device emulation. In order to make the device emulation more secure, the device's control path is handled in kernel. A message mechnism is introduced to forward some dataplane related control messages to userspace. And in the data path, the DMA buffer will be mapped into userspace address space through different ways depending on the vDPA bus to which the vDPA device is attached. In virtio-vdpa case, the MMU-based software IOTLB is used to achieve that. And in vhost-vdpa case, the DMA buffer is reside in a userspace memory region which can be shared to the VDUSE userspace processs via transferring the shmfd. For more details on VDUSE design and usage, please see the follow-on Documentation commit. NB(mst): when merging this with b542e383d8c0 ("eventfd: Make signal recursion protection a task bit") replace eventfd_signal_count with eventfd_signal_allowed, and drop the previous ("eventfd: Export eventfd_wake_count to modules").
