[PATCH v3 0/4] Add RPROC support for the MX95-15x15-FRDM board

[PATCH v3 0/4] Add RPROC support for the MX95-15x15-FRDM board

[Laurentiu Mihalcea]

From: Laurentiu Mihalcea <laurentiu.mihalcea@nxp.com>

Hi folks,

As you can see from the title, this series attempts to introduce/enable
RPROC support for the MX95-15x15-FRDM board.

For a while now, the imx_rproc driver has been using the reserved memory
DT nodes as the carveout names, which would force DT writers to go against
the DT specification's recommendation and use non-generic names (e.g.
"vdev0vring0", "vdev0vring1", etc...). This series also tries to fix this
issue by introducing the "memory-region-names" property and using it in
the imx_rproc driver to figure out the carveout names. The driver will
still allow the old way of doing things (i.e. no "memory-region-names"
property) but a warning will now be printed since this should be
discouraged.

---

Changes in v3:

* kept the DT binding patch because it fixes the ABI problem pointed out
by Frank. Modified the commit message to reflect this.
* link to v2: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20260605113621.1479-1-laurentiumihalcea111@gmail.com/

Changes in v2:

* change commit message of binding patch to describe why it's needed
* drop restrictions on the string names passed via "memory-region-names"
* drop patch moving the CM7 node to the SoC DTSI. CM7 node is now added
in the RPMSG DT overlay
* rewrite commit message of patch removing some of the RMEM regions from
the bord DTS - previous version was a stale version from first iterations
of this series
* change "micfil" node status from "disabled" to "reserved"
* add check against rmem phandle count and string count mismatch
* include "of_reserved_mem.h" in "imx_rproc.h" to avoid having to rely on
the consumers including it

[PATCH v3 1/4] dt-bindings: remoteproc: imx_rproc: document optional "memory-region-names"

[Laurentiu Mihalcea]

From: Laurentiu Mihalcea <laurentiu.mihalcea@nxp.com>

The carveout region names are derived based on the DT node names. Because
of this, the DT node names are ABI, which is not supposed to happen.

Fix this by documenting an additional, optional property:
"memory-region-names". This way, the software will have a way to build the
carveout region names without relying on the DT node names.

[PATCH v3 2/4] remoteproc: imx_rpoc: fix carveout name parsing

[Laurentiu Mihalcea]

From: Laurentiu Mihalcea <laurentiu.mihalcea@nxp.com>

The imx remoteproc driver assumes that the names of the reserved memory
regions reflect their usage (e.g. "vdevbuffer", "vdev0vring0", etc.). This
conflicts with the devicetree specification's recommendation, which states
that the names of the devicetree nodes should be generic.

Therefore, instead of relying on the node names, use the names passed via
the "memory-region-names" property if present. Otherwise, keep the old
behavior.

The definition of imx_rproc_rmem_to_resource() is added to a common place
as imx_dsp_rproc.c can also use it given that it suffers from the same
aforementioned problem.

Add RPMSG DT overlay for the MX95-15x15-FRDM board. This overlay is meant

This relies on a hidden ABI by parsing the remote node's name, and also
bypasses the DT binding check since there is no way to restrict the node
name of a memory region.

Additional information to help understand why it is important.

1. at thread wrong use vdevbuffer insteand vdev0buffer as node name
https://lore.kernel.org/imx/20260705202439.3F5771F000E9@smtp.kernel.org/
2. similar case happen at
https://lore.kernel.org/imx/20260715071741.79CA81F000E9@smtp.kernel.org/

Suppose these problem should be detected by dt binding check instead of
sashkio ai.

Need restrict names

  memory-region-names:
    description:
      Names for the memory-region phandles. Each entry must be one of the
      following recognized names. "vdev0buffer" is the shared buffer for
      virtio device 0, handled automatically by the rproc virtio framework.
      "vdev<n>ring<n>" (e.g. "vdev0vring0", "vdev0vring1") are the virtio
      vring buffers for device N, also managed by the virtio framework.
      "rsc-table" is the resource table region used to share the resource
      table between Linux and the remote processor when it is pre-loaded in
      memory. All other entries are treated as generic carveout regions that
      are mapped and made available to the remote processor.
