ARM: 8478/2: arm/arm64: add arm-smccc

2019-11-10T10:21:15+00:00

Commit 98dd64f34f47ce19b388d9015f767f48393a81eb upstream. Adds helpers to do SMC and HVC based on ARM SMC Calling Convention. CONFIG_HAVE_ARM_SMCCC is enabled for architectures that may support the SMC or HVC instruction. It's the responsibility of the caller to know if the SMC instruction is supported by the platform. This patch doesn't provide an implementation of the declared functions. Later patches will bring in implementations and set CONFIG_HAVE_ARM_SMCCC for ARM and ARM64 respectively.

iscsi_ibft: make ISCSI_IBFT dependson ACPI instead of ISCSI_IBFT_FIND

2019-08-25T08:52:46+00:00

[ Upstream commit 94bccc34071094c165c79b515d21b63c78f7e968 ] iscsi_ibft can use ACPI to find the iBFT entry during bootup, currently, ISCSI_IBFT depends on ISCSI_IBFT_FIND which is a X86 legacy way to find the iBFT by searching through the low memory. This patch changes the dependency so that other arch like ARM64 can use ISCSI_IBFT as long as the arch supports ACPI. ibft_init() needs to use the global variable ibft_addr declared in iscsi_ibft_find.c. A #ifndef CONFIG_ISCSI_IBFT_FIND is needed to declare the variable if CONFIG_ISCSI_IBFT_FIND is not selected. Moving ibft_addr into the iscsi_ibft.c does not work because if ISCSI_IBFT is selected as a module, the arch/x86/kernel/setup.c won't be able to find the variable at compile time.

This pull request contains the Raspberry Pi firmware driver, for communicating with the VPU which has exclusive control of some of the peripherals. Eric adds the actual firmware driver and Alexander fixes the header file which was missing include guards. * tag 'arm/soc/for-4.4/rpi-drivers' of https://github.com/Broadcom/stblinux: ARM: bcm2835: add mutual inclusion protection ARM: bcm2835: Add the Raspberry Pi firmware driver Signed-off-by: Olof Johansson

Merge "ARM System Control and Power Interface(SCPI) support" from Sudeep Holla It adds support for the following features provided by SCP firmware using different subsystems in Linux: 1. SCPI mailbox protocol driver which using mailbox framework 2. Clocks provided by SCP using clock framework 3. CPU DVFS(cpufreq) using existing arm-big-little driver 4.

firmware: add support for ARM System Control and Power Interface(SCPI) protocol

2015-09-28T10:53:37+00:00

This patch adds support for System Control and Power Interface (SCPI) Message Protocol used between the Application Cores(AP) and the System Control Processor(SCP). The MHU peripheral provides a mechanism for inter-processor communication between SCP's M3 processor and AP. SCP offers control and management of the core/cluster power states, various power domain DVFS including the core/cluster, certain system clocks configuration, thermal sensors and many others. This protocol driver provides interface for all the client drivers using SCPI to make use of the features offered by the SCP.

arm64: psci: factor invocation code to drivers

To enable sharing with arm, move the core PSCI framework code to drivers/firmware. This results in a minor gain in lines of code, but this will quickly be amortised by the removal of code currently duplicated in arch/arm.

MIPS: BCM47xx: Move NVRAM driver to the drivers/firmware/

2015-06-21T19:55:33+00:00

After Broadcom switched from MIPS to ARM for their home routers we need to have NVRAM driver in some common place (not arch/mips/). As explained in Kconfig, this driver is responsible for parsing SoC configuration data that is passed to the kernel in flash from the bootloader firmware called "CFE". We were thinking about putting it in bus directory, however there are two possible buses for MIPS: drivers/ssb/ and drivers/bcma/. So this won't fit there and this is why I would like to move this driver to the drivers/firmware/.
