Subject: [PATCH v5 03/34] mailbox: vpu-ipc-mailbox: Add support for Intel VPU IPC mailbox
From: Daniele Alessandrelli <daniele.alessandrelli@...el.com>
Add mailbox controller enabling inter-processor communication (IPC)
between the CPU (aka, the Application Processor - AP) and the VPU on
Intel Movidius SoCs like Keem Bay.
The controller uses HW FIFOs to enable such communication. Specifically,
there are two FIFOs, one for the CPU and one for VPU. Each FIFO can hold
128 entries (messages) of 32-bit each (but only 26 bits are actually
usable, since the 6 least-significant bits are reserved for the overflow
detection mechanism, more info below).
When the Linux kernel on the AP needs to send messages to the VPU
firmware, it writes them to the VPU FIFO; similarly, when the VPU
firmware needs to send messages to the AP, it writes them to the CPU
FIFO.
It's important to note that the AP is not the only one that can write to
the VPU FIFO: other components within the SoC can write to it too. Each
of these components (including the AP) has a unique 6-bit processor ID
associated to it. The VPU HW FIFO expects the last 6 bits of each 32-bit
FIFO entry to contain the processor ID of the sender.
Therefore, sending a message from the AP to the VPU works as follows:
1. The message must be a 32-bit value with the last 6-bit set to 0 (in
practice, the message is meant to be a 32-bit address value, aligned
to 64 bytes; but this is not really relevant for this mailbox
controller).
2. The AP adds its processor ID to the 32-bit message being sent:
M = m | AP_ProcID
3. The sender writes the message (M) to the TIM_IPC_FIFO register of the
VPU FIFO.
4. The HW atomically checks if the FIFO is full and if not it writes it
to the actual FIFO; if the FIFO is full, the HW reads the ProcID
from M and then sets the corresponding bit of TIM_IPC_FIFO_OF_FLAG0,
to signal that the write failed, because the FIFO was full.
5. The AP reads the TIM_IPC_FIFO_OF_FLAG0 register and checks if the
bit corresponding to its ProcID has been set (in order to know if the
TX succeeded or failed); if the bit is set, the AP clears it.
Note: as briefly mentioned above, the 32-bit value is meant to be a 32-
bit physical address (64-byte aligned). This address points to a
predefined struct (i.e., the IPC packet) in shared memory. However,
since this struct is not HW dependent (it's just the struct the VPU
firmware expects and in theory it could change if a different VPU FW is
used), it's not defined here, but in the Keem Bay IPC driver, which is
the mailbox client for this controller.
The AP is notified of pending messages in the CPU FIFO by means of the
'FIFO-not-empty' interrupt, which is generated by the CPU FIFO while not
empty. This interrupt is cleared automatically once all messages have
been read from the FIFO (i.e., the FIFO has been emptied).
The hardware doesn't provide an TX done IRQ (i.e., an IRQ that allows
the VPU firmware to notify the AP that the message put into the VPU FIFO
has been received); however the AP can ensure that the message has been
successfully put into the VPU FIFO (and therefore transmitted) by
checking the VPU FIFO status register (TIM_IPC_FIFO_OF_FLAG0) to ensure
that writing the message didn't cause the FIFO to overflow (as described
above).
Therefore, the mailbox controller is configured as capable of tx_done
IRQs and a tasklet is used to simulate the tx_done IRQ. The tasklet is
activated by send_data() right after the message has been put into the
VPU FIFO and the VPU FIFO status registers has been checked. If an
overflow is reported by the status register, the tasklet passes -EBUSY
to mbox_chan_txdone(), to notify the mailbox client of the failed TX.
The client should therefore register a tx_done() callback to properly
handle failed transmissions.
Note: the 'txdone_poll' mechanism cannot be used because it doesn't
provide a way to report a failed transmission.
