RapidIO subsystem mport character device driver (rio_mport_cdev.c)
==================================================================
Version History:
----------------
1.0.0 - Initial driver release.
==================================================================
I. Overview
This device driver is the result of collaboration within the RapidIO.org
Software Task Group (STG) between Texas Instruments, Freescale,
Prodrive Technologies, Nokia Networks, BAE and IDT. Additional input was
received from other members of RapidIO.org. The objective was to create a
character mode driver interface which exposes the capabilities of RapidIO
devices directly to applications, in a manner that allows the numerous and
varied RapidIO implementations to interoperate.
This driver (MPORT_CDEV) provides access to basic RapidIO subsystem operations
for user-space applications. Most of RapidIO operations are supported through
'ioctl' system calls.
When loaded this device driver creates filesystem nodes named rio_mportX in /dev
directory for each registered RapidIO mport device. 'X' in the node name matches
to unique port ID assigned to each local mport device.
Using available set of ioctl commands user-space applications can perform
following RapidIO bus and subsystem operations:
- Reads and writes from/to configuration registers of mport devices
(RIO_MPORT_MAINT_READ_LOCAL/RIO_MPORT_MAINT_WRITE_LOCAL)
- Reads and writes from/to configuration registers of remote RapidIO devices.
This operations are defined as RapidIO Maintenance reads/writes in RIO spec.
(RIO_MPORT_MAINT_READ_REMOTE/RIO_MPORT_MAINT_WRITE_REMOTE)
- Set RapidIO Destination ID for mport devices (RIO_MPORT_MAINT_HDID_SET)
- Set RapidIO Component Tag for mport devices (RIO_MPORT_MAINT_COMPTAG_SET)
- Query logical index of mport devices (RIO_MPORT_MAINT_PORT_IDX_GET)
- Query capabilities and RapidIO link configuration of mport devices
(RIO_MPORT_GET_PROPERTIES)
- Enable/Disable reporting of RapidIO doorbell events to user-space applications
(RIO_ENABLE_DOORBELL_RANGE/RIO_DISABLE_DOORBELL_RANGE)
- Enable/Disable reporting of RIO port-write events to user-space applications
(RIO_ENABLE_PORTWRITE_RANGE/RIO_DISABLE_PORTWRITE_RANGE)
- Query/Control type of events reported through this driver: doorbells,
port-writes or both (RIO_SET_EVENT_MASK/RIO_GET_EVENT_MASK)
- Configure/Map mport's outbound requests window(s) for specific size,
RapidIO destination ID, hopcount and request type
(RIO_MAP_OUTBOUND/RIO_UNMAP_OUTBOUND)
- Configure/Map mport's inbound requests window(s) for specific size,
RapidIO base address and local memory base address
(RIO_MAP_INBOUND/RIO_UNMAP_INBOUND)
- Allocate/Free contiguous DMA coherent memory buffer for DMA data transfers
to/from remote RapidIO devices (RIO_ALLOC_DMA/RIO_FREE_DMA)
- Initiate DMA data transfers to/from remote RapidIO devices (RIO_TRANSFER).
Supports blocking, asynchronous and posted (a.k.a 'fire-and-forget') data
transfer modes.
- Check/Wait for completion of asynchronous DMA data transfer
(RIO_WAIT_FOR_ASYNC)
- Manage device objects supported by RapidIO subsystem (RIO_DEV_ADD/RIO_DEV_DEL).
This allows implementation of various RapidIO fabric enumeration algorithms
as user-space applications while using remaining functionality provided by
kernel RapidIO subsystem.
II. Hardware Compatibility
This device driver uses standard interfaces defined by kernel RapidIO subsystem
and therefore it can be used with any mport device driver registered by RapidIO
subsystem with limitations set by available mport implementation.
At this moment the most common limitation is availability of RapidIO-specific
DMA engine framework for specific mport device. Users should verify available
functionality of their platform when planning to use this driver:
- IDT Tsi721 PCIe-to-RapidIO bridge device and its mport device driver are fully
compatible with this driver.
- Freescale SoCs 'fsl_rio' mport driver does not have implementation for RapidIO
specific DMA engine support and therefore DMA data transfers mport_cdev driver
are not available.
III. Module parameters
- 'dbg_level' - This parameter allows to control amount of debug information
generated by this device driver. This parameter is formed by set of
bit masks that correspond to the specific functional blocks.
For mask definitions see 'drivers/rapidio/devices/rio_mport_cdev.c'
This parameter can be changed dynamically.
Use CONFIG_RAPIDIO_DEBUG=y to enable debug output at the top level.
IV. Known problems
None.
V. User-space Applications and API
API library and applications that use this device driver are available from
RapidIO.org.
VI. TODO List
- Add support for sending/receiving "raw" RapidIO messaging packets.
- Add memory mapped DMA data transfers as an option when RapidIO-specific DMA
is not available.
