remoteproc instances can be stopped either by invoking shutdown or by an
attempt to recover from a crash. For some subdev types it's expected to
clean up gracefully during a shutdown, but are unable to do so during a
crash - so pass this information to the subdev remove functions.

As the remoteproc framework restarts the remote processor after a fatal
event, it's useful to be able to acquire a coredump of the remote
processor's state, for post mortem debugging.
This patch introduces a mechanism for extracting the memory contents
after the remote has stopped and before the restart sequence has begun
in the recovery path. The remoteproc framework builds the core dump in
memory and use devcoredump to expose this to user space.

Extend the previous operation of finding the resource table in the ELF
with the extra step of populating the rproc struct with a copy and the
size. This allows drivers to override the mechanism used for acquiring
the resource table, or omit it for firmware that is known not to have a
resource table.
This leaves the custom, dummy, find_rsc_table implementations found in
some drivers dangling.

There are currently a few different schemes used for overriding fw_ops
or parts of fw_ops. Merge fw_ops into rproc_ops and expose the default
ELF-loader symbols so that they can be assigned by the drivers.
To keep backwards compatibility with the "default" case, a driver not
specifying the "load" operation is assumed to want the full ELF-loader
suit of functions.

firmware_loading_complete is used to synchronize operations
on rproc while asynchronous firmware loading is in progress.
However, rproc_boot() no longer waits on
firmware_loading_complete. Hence drop this completion
variable altogether and handle the race between rproc_del()
and rproc_boot() using new state RPROC_DELETED.
The request_firmware_nowait() will hold the reference to
rproc device by using a get_device()/put_device(), so the
rproc struct will remain valid even when we return from
rproc_del() before the asynchronous call to
rproc_fw_config_virtio() completes.

Following any fw_rsc_vdev entries in the resource table are two variable
length arrays, the first one reference vring resources and the second
one is the virtio config space. The virtio config space is used by
virtio to communicate status and configuration changes and must as such
be shared with the remote.
The reverted commit incorrectly made any changes to the virtio config
space only affect the local copy, in an attempt to allowing memory

In current implementation, struct fw_rsc_vdev_vring which describes
vring resource in firmware resource table owns only device address,
because it assumes that host is responsible of vring allocation and
only device address is needed by coprocessor.
But if vrings need to be fixed in system memory map for any reasons
(security, SoC charactieristics...), physical address is needed exatly
identified the memory chunck by host.
For that let's transform reserved field of struct fw_rsc_vdev_vring
to pa (physical address).

The rproc_da_to_va API is currently used to perform any device to
kernel address translations to meet the different needs of the remoteproc
core/drivers (eg: loading). The functionality is achieved within the
remoteproc core, and is limited only for carveouts allocated within the
core.
A new rproc ops, da_to_va, is added to provide flexibility to platform
implementations to perform the address translation themselves when the
above conditions cannot be met by the implementations. The rproc_da_to_va()
API is extended to invoke this ops if present, and fallback to regular
processing if the platform implementation cannot provide the translation.
This will allow any remoteproc implementations to translate addresses for
dedicated memories like internal memories.
While at this, also update the rproc_da_to_va() documentation since it
is an exported function.

The remoteproc framework currently relies on iommu_present() on
the bus the device is on, to perform MMU management. However, this
logic doesn't scale for multi-arch, especially for processors that
do not have an IOMMU. Replace this logic instead by using a h/w
capability flag for the presence of IOMMU in the rproc structure.
This issue is seen on OMAP platforms when trying to add a remoteproc
driver for a small Cortex M3 called the WkupM3 used for suspend /
resume management on TI AM335/AM437x SoCs. This processor does not
have an MMU. Same is the case with another processor subsystem
PRU-ICSS on AM335/AM437x. All these are platform devices, and the
current iommu_present check will not scale for the same kernel image
to support OMAP4/OMAP5 and AM335/AM437x.
The existing platform implementation drivers - OMAP remoteproc, STE
Modem remoteproc and DA8xx remoteproc, are updated as well to properly
configure the newly added rproc field.

Examples:
- disabling recovery:

- in case you want to recover a crash, but keep recovery disabled
(useful in debugging sessions when you expect additional crashes
you want to debug):
$ echo recover > <debugfs>/remoteproc/remoteproc0/recovery

Allow low-level remoteproc drivers to report rproc crashes by exporting
a new rproc_report_crash() function (invoking this from non-rproc drivers
is probably wrong, and should be carefully scrutinized if ever needed).
rproc_report_crash() can be called from any context; it offloads the
tasks of handling the crash to a separate thread.
Handling the crash from a separate thread is helpful because:
- Ability to call invoke rproc_report_crash() from atomic context, due to
the fact that many crashes trigger an interrupt, so this function can be
called directly from ISR context.
- Avoiding deadlocks which could happen if rproc_report_crash() is called
from a function which indirectly holds the rproc lock.
Handling the crash might involve:
- Remoteproc register dump
- Remoteproc stack dump
- Remoteproc core dump
- Saving Remoteproc traces so they can be read after the crash
- Reseting the remoteproc in order to make it functional again (hard recovery)
Right now, we only print the crash type which was detected, and only the
mmufault type is supported. Remoteproc low-level drivers can add more types
when needed.

Firmware handling is made customizable.
This is done by creating a separate ops structure for the
firmware functions that depends on a particular firmware
format (such as ELF). The ELF functions are default used
unless the HW driver explicitly injects another firmware
handler by updating rproc->fw_ops.
The function rproc_da_to_va() is exported, as custom
firmware handlers may need to use this function.

Remove rproc_get_by_name() and rproc_put(), and the associated

1. No one uses them
2. Using them is highly discouraged, and any potential user

If a user, that absolutely can't live with the direct boot/shutdown

is going to be trivial.
At this point though, keeping this functionality around is way too

For each registered rproc, maintain a generic remoteproc device whose
parent is the low level platform-specific device (commonly a pdev, but
it may certainly be any other type of device too).
With this in hand, the resulting device hierarchy might then look like:
omap-rproc.0
|
- remoteproc0 <---- new !
|
- virtio0
|
- virtio1
|
- rpmsg0
|
- rpmsg1
|
- rpmsg2
Where:
- omap-rproc.0 is the low level device that's bound to the
driver which invokes rproc_register()
- remoteproc0 is the result of this patch, and will be added by the
remoteproc framework when rproc_register() is invoked
- virtio0 and virtio1 are vdevs that are registered by remoteproc
when it realizes that they are supported by the firmware
of the physical remote processor represented by omap-rproc.0
- rpmsg0, rpmsg1 and rpmsg2 are rpmsg devices that represent rpmsg
channels, and are registerd by the rpmsg bus when it gets notified
about their existence
Technically, this patch:
- changes 'struct rproc' to contain this generic remoteproc.x device
- creates a new "remoteproc" type, to which this new generic remoteproc.x
device belong to.
- adds a super simple enumeration method for the indices of the
remoteproc.x devices
- updates all dev_* messaging to use the generic remoteproc.x device
instead of the low level platform-specific device
- updates all dma_* allocations to use the parent of remoteproc.x (where
the platform-specific memory pools, most commonly CMA, are to be found)
Adding this generic device has several merits:
- we can now add remoteproc runtime PM support simply by hooking onto the
new "remoteproc" type
- all remoteproc log messages will now carry a common name prefix
instead of having a platform-specific one
- having a device as part of the rproc struct makes it possible to simplify
refcounting (see subsequent patch)
Thanks to Stephen Boyd <sboyd@codeaurora.org> for suggesting and
discussing these ideas in one of the remoteproc review threads and
to Fernando Guzman Lugo <fernando.lugo@ti.com> for trying them out
with the (upcoming) runtime PM support for remoteproc.

Now that the resource table supports publishing a virtio device
in a single resource entry, firmware images can start supporting
more than a single vdev.
This patch removes the single vdev limitation of the remoteproc
framework so multi-vdev firmwares can be leveraged: VDEV resource
entries are parsed when the rproc is registered, and as a result
their vrings are set up and the virtio devices are registered
(and they go away when the rproc goes away).
Moreover, we no longer only support VIRTIO_ID_RPMSG vdevs; any
virtio device type goes now. As a result, there's no more any
rpmsg-specific APIs or code in remoteproc: it all becomes generic
virtio handling.

The resource table is an array of 'struct fw_resource' members, where
each resource entry is expressed as a single member of that array.
This approach got us this far, but it has a few drawbacks:
1. Different resource entries end up overloading the same members of 'struct
fw_resource' with different meanings. The resulting code is error prone
and hard to read and maintain.
2. It's impossible to extend 'struct fw_resource' without breaking the
existing firmware images (and we already want to: we can't introduce the
new virito device resource entry with the current scheme).
3. It doesn't scale: 'struct fw_resource' must be as big as the largest
resource entry type. As a result, smaller resource entries end up
utilizing only small part of it.
This is fixed by defining a dedicated structure for every resource type,
and then converting the resource table to a list of type-value members.
Instead of a rigid array of homogeneous structs, the resource table
is turned into a collection of heterogeneous structures.
This way:
1. Resource entries consume exactly the amount of bytes they need.
2. It's easy to extend: just create a new resource entry structure, and assign
it a new type.
3. The code is easier to read and maintain: the structures' members names are
meaningful.
While we're at it, this patch has several other resource table changes:
1. The resource table gains a simple header which contains the
number of entries in the table and their offsets within the table. This
makes the parsing code simpler and easier to read.
2. A version member is added to the resource table. Should we change the
format again, we'll bump up this version to prevent breakage with
existing firmware images.
3. The VRING and VIRTIO_DEV resource entries are combined to a single
VDEV entry. This paves the way to supporting multiple VDEV entries.
4. Since we don't really support 64-bit rprocs yet, convert two stray u64
members to u32.

A lookup table would be easier to extend, and the resulting
code is a bit cleaner.

RSC_VIRTIO_CFG isn't being used, so remove it.
Originally it was introduced to overcome a resource table limitation
that prevented describing a virtio device in a single resource table
entry.
The plan though is to describe resource table entries in a TLV fashion,
where each entry will consume the amount of space it requires,
so the original limitation is anyway temporary.

Modern SoCs typically employ a central symmetric multiprocessing (SMP)
application processor running Linux, with several other asymmetric
multiprocessing (AMP) heterogeneous processors running different instances
of operating system, whether Linux or any other flavor of real-time OS.
Booting a remote processor in an AMP configuration typically involves:
- Loading a firmware which contains the OS image
- Allocating and providing it required system resources (e.g. memory)
- Programming an IOMMU (when relevant)
- Powering on the device
This patch introduces a generic framework that allows drivers to do
that. In the future, this framework will also include runtime power
management and error recovery.
Based on (but now quite far from) work done by Fernando Guzman Lugo
