[PATCH v2 0/3] arm64: add new support Samsung GH7 SoC and SSDK board

[PATCH v2 0/3] arm64: add new support Samsung GH7 SoC and SSDK board

[Kukjin Kim]

This adds support for Samsung ARMv8 core based GH7 SoC and its evaluation SSDK
board.

Changes since v1:
- remove model and compatible in dtsi
- remove inclusion /dts-v1/ in dtsi
- add aliase for serial0
- remove compatible cortex-a9-gic for gic
- remove clock-frequncy for timer
- change number of address-cells and size-cells to 2
- enable ARCH_GH7 in single defconfig for arm64

There were many comments for SoC vendor's Kconfig entry but now I have no
choice except adding ARCH_GH7 and enabling it in current single defconfig
for arm64 by default.

This patch should go to the devicetree list as well to get some
reviews/acks from the DT maintainers.

Please have a comment as to what this memreserve is intended to protect.
This is very large, and we don't want pointless memreserves.

What address does the kernel end up getting loaded at on this board?

The "arm,armv8" should be a fallback rather than the only entry. The
precise core should be first (see arch/arm64/boot/dts/apm-storm.dtsi for
an example).

> +			reg = <0x0 0x000>;

Any reason for padding these to three hexadecimal digits (in both the
reg and unit-address)?

We should have a more specific compatible string early in the list here
too.

This is missing a specific compatible string.

There are four CPUs described, yet eight interrupts here. There should
be one per CPU.

These are both missing required clocks.

Is the "based on GH7 SoC" part necessary? Does the "SSDK-GH7" not give
that away?

Thanks,

Well, you mean I need to comment about each reserved memory area?

We need the reserved memory for EL3 monitor, UEFI services, secure
interpreter, hypervisor and Scan-chain for debug...BTW isn't it depending on
each hardware platform and usage model?

Just note, I will change the reserve memory area and size. From at
0xf8000000 and size is 128MB(0x8000000).

We load the kernel image from at 0x80080000 after changing the reserve
memory area.

Well, do I really need another name if GH7 has just 'ARMv8 core' exactly?

Yes, I already commented on Olof's question before, other cores will be
added and it should be separated from this.

Well, I think more specific compatible string is not required for gic, there
were discussion about using another compatible string for gic-v2. And
cortex-a15-gic should be fine at this moment and if another name is required
as per previous discussion, we will then.

I don't know why I need another specific compatible string here because I
thought the 'armv8-pmuv3' is enough.

Yes right. I added them here by mistake, the other four interrupts will be
used for other 4 cores will be added later though.

In this case, yes, SSDK-GH7 is enough but I though, in case of different
board adding what SoC is used on the board in that is useful. Anyway, OK.

Please have a comment about what each /memreserve/ is intended to
protect.

If it depends on each particular model then it doesn't belong in the
shared dtsi, and each dts should have the /memreserve/ for that
platform.

Why would the hypervisor or secure OS memory ever be accessible to the
kernel such that it would require a memreserve? That sounds
fundamentally broken.

I was under the impression that if using UEFI we can identify and
reserve the UEFI services by walking to UEFI memory map. If we don't use
them, they don't need to be protected. As such, I don't see why they
need a memreserve for them.

Yes please. You presumably don't have "just 'ARMv8 core'", but rather a
specific ARMv8 implementation.

While it's probably ok to have "arm,cortex-a15-gic" in the compatible
list, it would be good to also have a more specific string, so we can
identify the GIC implementation precisely in future (in case we need to
perform any workarounds, or there's some kind of optimisation we could
perform for some implementations).

Each CPU microarchitecture has different PMU events and quirks. While
the CPU PMU might be compatible with ARMv8's PMUv3, it will also have
implementation-specific events, and may have quirks we need to work
around in future.

As with 32-bit, we'd expect these to be of the form
"${implementor},${cpu}-pmu".

Looking at ePAPR, the recommended format is "manufacturer,model", and
the string is intended to identify a particular implementation. It is
not intended to give details about the implementation that can be
derived from the name.

We seem to have ignored the format (and to some degree purpose) of the
model property so far, but I don't see any reason to fill it with
unnecessary information.

Thanks,

OK, so in my understanding if it is really _just_ 'ARMv8 core' from S/W point
of view, "arm,armv8" should be fine. I will make sure.

To be honest, still I'm not sure how it should be handled because regarding
clocks do not need to handle in the kernel for GH7. And for it, I needed to
use some HACKs to change clock handling in the kernel. I will provide proper
solution soon.

It will work, sure. But the compatible list should also list the
specific CPU. From the S/W point of view there are likely
implementation-defined registers which mean that no real CPU will be
"just" an ARMv8 core.

We have enough trouble with DTBs for 32-bit SoCs not listing things they
should. I see no reason to be lax here.

Why not do this from the start? Then we can actually rely on the DTB
rather than it being useless.

Is GH7 an SoC or a CPU?

Are the clocks always-on, fixed-rate clocks, or does some firmware
manage them dynamically? We have bindings for the former.

There's not much point having a DTS upstream that relies on hacks which
are not.

Well, IMHO, SoC is just SoC and we don't think each CPU(core) from SoC and I'm
still wondering why the specific compatible string for CPU is needed in kernel.
And I don't see any custom handling for GH7 SoC. Note sorry, I don't get about
implementation-defined registers.

I mean, we need to use current GIC implementation for GH7 SoC at this moment.

SoC. Similar as above. AFAIK, ARM SoC vendors usually didn't name for each CPU
not SoC if there is no change in core hardware implementation, at least Samsung
didn't name.

OK, if you still have strong objection on this, I will remove PMU support here
until agreement about that.

Actually, some firmware handles them and basically and kernel doesn't need.

At the end, we are going to use just upstream kernel for GH7 without any HACKs
but as a preliminary, this is a good start point even there is HACK for a while.

Might it be worth defining a property explicitly intended to be used as
a display name for human consumption?  Half the problem with model is
that we don't have a way to use it for quirking so nobody ever really
looks at it (though I guess we will want that at some point now we're
going for fixed ABI stuff), but not having a place to put a pretty name
does encourage this sort of thing.

You should add some text here so that people can disable it. The aim is
single Image by default but I think we should let people disable certain
platforms for more targeted deployments.
