[PATCH v2 0/9] add Voyager board support

[Ben Zong-You Xie]

The Voyager is a 9.6” x 9.6” Micro ATX form factor development board
including Andes QiLai SoC. This patch series adds minimal device tree
files for the QiLai SoC and the Voyager board [1].

Now only support basic uart drivers to boot up into a basic console. Other
features will be added later.

Changelog:

v1->v2:
  - Add Rob's Reviewed-by tag to patch 2.
  - Add Rob's Acked-by tag to patch 3.
  - Add detailed descriptions to PLIC_SW and PLMT0.
  - Add Rob's Acked-by tag to patch 6.
  - Move the aliases node and memory node from qilai.dtsi to qilai-voyager.dts.
  - Drop "status = okay" in each CPU node since the status property is by
    default "okay".
  - Reorder the nodes in qilai.dtsi by unit address in ascending order.
  - Add myself as the maintainer of Andes's SoC tree.

v1: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20250407104937.315783-1-ben717@andestech.com/

[Ben Zong-You Xie]

Add the DT binding documentation for Andes machine-level software
interrupt controller.

In the Andes platform such as QiLai SoC, the PLIC module is instantiated a
second time with all interrupt sources tied to zero as the software
interrupt controller (PLICSW). PLICSW can generate machine-level software
interrupts through programming its registers.

[PATCH v2 5/9] dt-bindings: timer: add Andes machine timer

[Ben Zong-You Xie]

Add the DT binding documentation for Andes machine timer.

The RISC-V architecture defines a machine timer that provides a real-time
counter and generates timer interrupts. Andes machiner timer (PLMT0) is
the implementation of the machine timer, and it contains memory-mapped
registers (mtime and mtimecmp). This device supports up to 32 cores.

[PATCH v2 6/9] dt-bindings: cache: ax45mp-cache: allow variable cache-sets for Andes L2 cache

[Ben Zong-You Xie]

The current device tree binding for the Andes AX45MP L2 cache enforces
a fixed number of cache-sets (1024). However, there are 2048 cache-sets in
the QiLai SoC. This change allows both 1024 and 2048 as valid values for
"cache-sets".

You know what, I am starting to have second thoughts here. Why does the
qilai not have a specific compatible like the plic etc? I think you
should have one, and only allow the 2048 cache-sets there. I'm going to
go and drop this patch, and please do that for the next version.

Prabhakar, should we add a specific one for the rz/five too?

[PATCH v2 0/9] add Voyager board support

[Ben Zong-You Xie]

The Voyager is a 9.6” x 9.6” Micro ATX form factor development board
including Andes QiLai SoC. This patch series adds minimal device tree
files for the QiLai SoC and the Voyager board [1].

Now only support basic uart drivers to boot up into a basic console. Other
features will be added later.

[PATCH v2 4/9] dt-bindings: interrupt-controller: add Andes machine-level software interrupt controller

[Ben Zong-You Xie]

Add the DT binding documentation for Andes machine-level software
interrupt controller.

In the Andes platform such as QiLai SoC, the PLIC module is instantiated a
second time with all interrupt sources tied to zero as the software
interrupt controller (PLICSW). PLICSW can generate machine-level software
interrupts through programming its registers.

+description:
+  In the Andes platform such as QiLai SoC, the PLIC module is instantiated a
+  second time with all interrupt sources tied to zero as the software interrupt
+  controller (PLIC_SW). PLIC_SW directly connects to the machine-mode
+  inter-processor interrupt lines of CPUs, so RISC-V per-CPU local interrupt
+  controller is the parent interrupt controller for PLIC_SW. PLIC_SW can
+  generate machine-mode inter-processor interrupts through programming its
+  registers.
