Subject: [PATCH v4 0/2] remoteproc: add AMD BRAM-based remote processor driver
Date: Mon, 29 Jun 2026 09:40:01 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260629164003.3940208-1-ben.levinsky@amd.com> (raw)
Add a BRAM-based remoteproc driver and corresponding binding for AMD
soft processors located in programmable logic.
The series models a soft-core processor subsystem that executes firmware
from dual-port BRAM. The BRAM window is described in the processor-local
address space and translated to the Linux-visible system physical address
through the parent bus ranges property.
This series depends on the remoteproc cleanup series available here:
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-remoteproc/ah2aVdlsLqy9aeHP@p14s/
That series adds the common WC ioremap carveout callbacks and optional
ELF resource-table helper used by patch 2.
v4:
Patch 1, dt-bindings: remoteproc: document AMD BRAM-based rproc
- Sorted the SoC-specific compatible enum by name.
Patch 2, remoteproc: add AMD BRAM-based remote processor driver
- Dropped the driver-specific MAINTAINERS entry.
- Trimmed the Kconfig help text.
- Reused the common WC ioremap/iounmap carveout callbacks.
- Reused the common optional ELF resource-table helper.
- Used resource_size(&res) for the translated memory window size.
- Kept the coredump segment address as the processor-local device
address. The coredump path resolves segment addresses through
rproc_da_to_va() against the registered carveout device address, while
res.start is the Linux-visible system physical address after DT
translation and may differ from the processor-local BRAM address.
v3:
This version updates the binding to use SoC-specific compatibles with
the fallback form discussed on the thread.
Patch 1, dt-bindings: remoteproc: document AMD BRAM-based rproc
- Reworked the compatible schema to use SoC-specific compatibles.
- Added amd,versal2-bram-rproc to the supported compatible list.
- Used xlnx,zynqmp-bram-rproc as the fallback compatible.
- Updated the example to match the new compatible scheme.
Patch 2, remoteproc: add AMD BRAM-based remote processor driver
- Updated the driver OF match table to bind via the
xlnx,zynqmp-bram-rproc fallback compatible.
v2:
This version pivots the series away from a MicroBlaze-specific binding
and driver shape and instead models a BRAM-based soft-core processor
subsystem more generally.
This follows the upstream feedback that amd,microblaze was too tied to
the processor architecture while also being too generic as a DT
compatible for the hardware interface being described.
Patch 1, dt-bindings: remoteproc: document AMD BRAM-based rproc
- Renamed the binding away from amd,microblaze and reframed it around a
BRAM-based soft-core processor subsystem.
- Dropped the redundant trailing "binding" wording from the patch
subject.
- Rewrote the binding text to describe the hardware rather than the Linux
remoteproc framework.
- Reworked the example to address the original dt_binding_check
complaints about the root node and simple-pm-bus example shape.
- Added a clocks property for the soft-core subsystem.
Patch 2, remoteproc: add AMD BRAM-based remote processor driver
- Renamed the driver away from the MicroBlaze-specific name to match the
BRAM-based binding.
- Added clock handling for the soft-core subsystem and the matching
COMMON_CLK dependency in Kconfig.
- Cleaned up the reset comments and removed the success dev_dbg() message
called out in review.
