[U-Boot] [PATCH v2 0/5] sun6i: A31s / CSQ_CS908 board support

[Hans de Goede]

Hi,

Here is v2 of my sun6i: A31s / CSQ_CS908 board support series.

Changes since v1:
-"sun6i: Make dram clk and zq value Kconfig options"
 -Mention changing of default zq value in commit message
 -Drop "if EXPERT" usage, as that breaks setting things through defconfig files
-"sun6i: Drop some "unknown magic" from dram init"
 -Mention that the info on what the dropped unknown magic did comes from
  Allwinner
-"sun6i: Add new CSQ_CS908 board"
 -Add setting of LDO for phy, so that network works
 -Correct usb vbus settings

Regards,

Hans

[U-Boot] [PATCH v2 1/5] sun6i: Make dram clk and zq value Kconfig options

[Hans de Goede]

It turns out that there is a too large spread between boards to handle this
with a default value, turn this into Kconfig options, and set the values
the factory images are using for the Colombus and Mele_M9 boards.

Note this changes the ZQ default when not overriden through defconfig from
120 to 123, as that is what most boards seem to actually use.

You are overriding this to be the default, is that deliberate/necessary?

I suspect it's just to keep both or neither of CLK and ZQ explicitly
give, which is a fine reason.

Yes, this is just here to make it easier to see what CLK and ZQ is used without
needing to look in the Kconfig, it is also here to make it a better template
for other sun6i defconfig-s

0x7b (or 123 in the decimal) form is a default reset value in the
hardware register (at least on A10/A13/A20 and also on TI Keystone2
hardware). So it indeed makes sense to have it as the default value for
u-boot. And also very likely shows that whoever provided the DRAM
configurations with this value, did not in fact bother to really
configure ZQ to something meaningful :-)

In general, if we read the JEDEC booklets, then ZQ calibration is the
feature, which allows to improve reliability and increase DRAM clock
speeds. The DRAM clock speeds, which are well beyond what the
Allwinner A31 boards seem to be using at the moment.

I hope that 0x78 value for ZQ on Mele M9 is really there for a reason,
and not something like actually 0x7B that got misread from the printed
documentation or from screen :-) As the DRAM clock speeds on A31
hardware seem to be really very low, I would suspect that almost any
ZQ value would be probably good enough in practice.

For A10/A13/A20 hardware we actually have easy tools to measure DRAM
reliability. These tools can help to pick good ZQ settings. Something
similar may be potentially implemented for A31 too.

Ian Campbell has already noticed in the earlier review. In the case *if*
the automatic detection works correctly, then why bother adding this
*extra* code? Based on your description, it looks like a superfluous
band-aid and increases the number of "moving parts". Which generally
makes the code less maintainable.

There was a talk about calling it a "performance optimization" earlier,
but the v2 commit message does not mention this. Neither does it present
any benchmark numbers.

Basically, it boils down to whether we can trust the automatic detection
code to do a proper job or not. Normally, if the automatic detection
does not work correctly in all cases, then it needs to be fixed in the
long run. But I can clearly understand if you are not willing to take
any risks and just want to deploy something that somehow works to the
end users sooner.

Either way, I have nothing against these patches. Just would prefer a
little bit better transparency and more clear commit messages. Keep up
the good job.

It does work correctly in my testing.

I'm just mimicking what the boot0 code does here, and the boot0 code does
detect the SoC type and not bother with the second channel on A31s, and that
seems sensible to do, nothing good will come out of trying to use the second
channel on A31s.

In my testing the auto-detect code worked fine for automatically disabling
the 2nd channel on on A31s, but as said it seems sensible to just not bother
with the 2nd channel at all on A31s.

Thanks. Yes, I have seen your confirmation earlier:
    http://lists.denx.de/pipermail/u-boot/2014-November/196198.html

"My assumption was that it would not work, as the A31s has only one
channel, or so the datasheets claim. But it turned out it does work"

That's a good point. If boot0 is doing this, then Allwinner developers
probably had some valid reason. Too bad that we don't know this reason.

You are currently transplanting the Allwinner code into u-boot. And
in the short run it is indeed safer to keep it as is. Especially
considering that you are apparently not doing any extensive testing
of the individual features and hardware registers, but instead heavily
relying on assumptions.

In what way is it sensible to have three possible code paths (A31s, A31
with two channels, A31 with a single channel) instead of two before
this change (A31/A31s with a single channel, A31 with two channels)?
This just results in a worse testing coverage situation.

[U-Boot] [PATCH v2 4/5] sun6i: Drop some "unknown magic" from dram init

[Hans de Goede]

Allwinner tells us that this bit of code is the rtc ram being used to detect
coming out of "super-standby" mode, and if that is the case, going out of
self-refresh mode.

Since we do not support "super-standby" mode, this can be dropped.

If I understand this paragraph correctly, you seem to have a privileged
communication channel with Allwinner. And I wonder if you are keeping
track of this information somehow and willing to share it with the
others?

For sun4i/sun5i/sun7i DRAM controller, we actively used a wiki page:
    http://linux-sunxi.org/A10_DRAM_Controller_Register_Guide
Basically, whenever something new is found about some hardware
register, just do a quick edit to make sure that this information
is not forgotten or lost. This does not really take much time.
Trying to remember something later and searching it in the scattered
old e-mails is usually a bigger waste of time.

The most interesting question is of course whether Allwinner has any
plans to provide real DRAM controller documentation. If they do it,
then we don't have to waste time on finding and documenting all the
relevant information.

> Since we do not support "super-standby" mode, this can be dropped.

This patch seems to have a similar purpose to what we did for
sun4i/sun5i/sun7i dram controller earlier:
    http://git.denx.de/?p=u-boot.git;a=commitdiff;h=f2577967738f923571b7156ad46ef91d9fa8d9f8

A somewhat tricky part about this stuff is that while we don't support
the "super-standby" mode, we still have to somehow deal with it whenever
we actually encounter it in the wild. It is easy to reproduce if you
have an Allwinner tablet with Android firmware (just disable WLAN, let
it sleep for a while, insert an SD card with u-boot and GNU/Linux, try
to press the power button to wake the device from sleep).

For example, on sun5i/sun7i hardware, doing "writel(0x16510000,
&dram->ppwrsctl)" part is important if we want to really discard the
RAM data and boot normally. A failure to do so just transitions the
device into and unbootable state. Moreover, the device may look as
"bricked" to the end user until the RTC battery runs out of juice or
some special action is taken. I think that this scenario is exactly
what was described in the NOTICE section:
    http://cubieboard.org/2014/01/13/upgrade-new-android-for-cubietruckv1-01/

I'm not sure if all the same applies to A31 hardware (does having a
dedicated OpenRISC power management chip change anything?), but just
chopping off the code and hoping for the best might be not the best
action.

Regarding the "unknown magic". In fact we already have quite a lot of
information about various obscure parts of the Allwinner DRAM code:
    http://lists.denx.de/pipermail/u-boot/2014-September/189199.html

For example, for this PTR0 PHY register, we have the following
information from the RK3288 header files:

/* PTR0 */
#define tITMSRST(n)          ((n)<<18)
#define tDLLLOCK(n)          ((n)<<6)
#define tDLLSRST(n)          ((n)<<0)

Having the bit fields as named identifiers instead of Allwinner magic
numbers makes the code more readable.

And we also have the "4.41 PHY Timing Register 0 (PTR0)" section in
http://www.ti.com/lit/ug/spruhn7a/spruhn7a.pdf for some general
explanations.

The RK3288 is almost a perfect match, because all the hardware register
addresses and the register names are nearly identical. The TI Keystone2
is a lot more distant relative, so the information in its documentation
is less trustworthy for us.

The actual functionality of these bits still needs to be confirmed in
an experimental way (instead of just making theoretical assumptions and
hoping for the best). But again, wasting time on doing this only makes
sense if Allwinner in fact has no plans to release proper documentation
for the DRAM controllers used in their SoCs.

I do not really have a private communication channel, as Simos Xenitellis
who has been working on getting beter collaboration between Allwinner and the
linux-sunxi community has mentioned in the
"[linux-sunxi] Introductions and Allwinner documentation update"
thread, kevin at allwinnertech.com and shuge at allwinnertech.com are available to
ask questions we may have and I've been doing that.

Note that I had multiple questions about the sun6i DRAM controller, and
the info in this commit is all I got unfortunately they are not able to
share anything wrt the DRAM controller.

AFAIK there are no plans to provide any documentation, or any info at all,
as said I had multiple questions and the info in this commit is all the
info I got.

The A23 dram support I'm about to post is also all my own work with no
help from Allwinner.

A valid point, unfortunately I only have A31 based top set boxes and those
do not do suspend / resume AFAIK...

But definitely something to keep in mind.

[U-Boot] [PATCH v2 5/5] sun6i: Add new CSQ_CS908 board

[Hans de Goede]

The CSQ CS908 is an A31s based top-set box, with 1G RAM, 8G NAND,
rtl8188etv usb wifi, 2 USB A receptacles (1 connected through the OTG
controller), ethernet, 3.5 mm jack with a/v out and hdmi out:

Note it has no sdcard slot and therefore can only be fel booted.

Apparently I'm terrible at remembering this during review: this is
missing a MAINTAINERS entry. (MAKEALL warns about this when regenerating
boards.cfg).

Since this patch is only in u-boot-sunxi#next so far do you just want to
fold in an update to add it to your stanza (or add a new appropriate
stanza) and force push? Ack to that plan if you do.

FYI I've just force pushed a similar change adding Chen-Yu's entry to
the Hummingbird A31.

[U-Boot] [PATCH v2 1/5] sun6i: Make dram clk and zq value Kconfig options

[Hans de Goede]

It turns out that there is a too large spread between boards to handle this
with a default value, turn this into Kconfig options, and set the values
the factory images are using for the Colombus and Mele_M9 boards.

Note this changes the ZQ default when not overriden through defconfig from
120 to 123, as that is what most boards seem to actually use.
