Set up a subdev in the q6v5 modem remoteproc driver that generates
event notifications for the IPA driver to use for initialization and
recovery following a modem shutdown or crash.
A pair of new functions provides a way for the IPA driver to register
and deregister a notification callback function that will be called
whenever modem events (about to boot, running, about to shut down,
etc.) occur. A void pointer value (provided by the IPA driver at
registration time) and an event type are supplied to the callback
function.
One event, MODEM_REMOVING, is signaled whenever the q6v5 driver is
about to remove the notification subdevice. It requires the IPA
driver de-register its callback.
This sub-device is only used by the modem subsystem (MSS) driver,
so the code that adds the new subdev and allows registration and
deregistration of the notifier is found in "qcom_q6v6_mss.c".

Many source files in the tree are missing licensing information, which
makes it harder for compliance tools to determine the correct license.
By default all files without license information are under the default
license of the kernel, which is GPL version 2.
Update the files which contain no license information with the 'GPL-2.0'
SPDX license identifier. The SPDX identifier is a legally binding
shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text.
This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and
Philippe Ombredanne.
How this work was done:
Patches were generated and checked against linux-4.14-rc6 for a subset of
the use cases:
- file had no licensing information it it.
- file was a */uapi/* one with no licensing information in it,
- file was a */uapi/* one with existing licensing information,
Further patches will be generated in subsequent months to fix up cases
where non-standard license headers were used, and references to license
had to be inferred by heuristics based on keywords.
The analysis to determine which SPDX License Identifier to be applied to
a file was done in a spreadsheet of side by side results from of the
output of two independent scanners (ScanCode & Windriver) producing SPDX
tag:value files created by Philippe Ombredanne. Philippe prepared the
base worksheet, and did an initial spot review of a few 1000 files.
The 4.13 kernel was the starting point of the analysis with 60,537 files
assessed. Kate Stewart did a file by file comparison of the scanner
results in the spreadsheet to determine which SPDX license identifier(s)
to be applied to the file. She confirmed any determination that was not
immediately clear with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.
Criteria used to select files for SPDX license identifier tagging was:
- Files considered eligible had to be source code files.
- Make and config files were included as candidates if they contained >5
lines of source
- File already had some variant of a license header in it (even if <5
lines).
All documentation files were explicitly excluded.
The following heuristics were used to determine which SPDX license
identifiers to apply.
- when both scanners couldn't find any license traces, file was
considered to have no license information in it, and the top level
COPYING file license applied.
For non */uapi/* files that summary was:
SPDX license identifier # files
---------------------------------------------------|-------
GPL-2.0 11139
and resulted in the first patch in this series.
If that file was a */uapi/* path one, it was "GPL-2.0 WITH
Linux-syscall-note" otherwise it was "GPL-2.0". Results of that was:
SPDX license identifier # files
---------------------------------------------------|-------
GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 930
and resulted in the second patch in this series.
- if a file had some form of licensing information in it, and was one
of the */uapi/* ones, it was denoted with the Linux-syscall-note if
any GPL family license was found in the file or had no licensing in
it (per prior point). Results summary:
SPDX license identifier # files
---------------------------------------------------|------
GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 270
GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 169
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-2-Clause) 21
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 17
LGPL-2.1+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 15
GPL-1.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 14
((GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 5
LGPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 4
LGPL-2.1 WITH Linux-syscall-note 3
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR MIT) 3
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) AND MIT) 1
and that resulted in the third patch in this series.
- when the two scanners agreed on the detected license(s), that became
the concluded license(s).
- when there was disagreement between the two scanners (one detected a
license but the other didn't, or they both detected different
licenses) a manual inspection of the file occurred.
- In most cases a manual inspection of the information in the file
resulted in a clear resolution of the license that should apply (and
which scanner probably needed to revisit its heuristics).
- When it was not immediately clear, the license identifier was
confirmed with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.
- If there was any question as to the appropriate license identifier,
the file was flagged for further research and to be revisited later
in time.
In total, over 70 hours of logged manual review was done on the
spreadsheet to determine the SPDX license identifiers to apply to the
source files by Kate, Philippe, Thomas and, in some cases, confirmation
by lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.
Kate also obtained a third independent scan of the 4.13 code base from
FOSSology, and compared selected files where the other two scanners
disagreed against that SPDX file, to see if there was new insights. The
Windriver scanner is based on an older version of FOSSology in part, so
they are related.
Thomas did random spot checks in about 500 files from the spreadsheets
for the uapi headers and agreed with SPDX license identifier in the
files he inspected. For the non-uapi files Thomas did random spot checks
in about 15000 files.
In initial set of patches against 4.14-rc6, 3 files were found to have
copy/paste license identifier errors, and have been fixed to reflect the
correct identifier.
Additionally Philippe spent 10 hours this week doing a detailed manual
inspection and review of the 12,461 patched files from the initial patch
version early this week with:
- a full scancode scan run, collecting the matched texts, detected
license ids and scores
- reviewing anything where there was a license detected (about 500+
files) to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct
- reviewing anything where there was no detection but the patch license
was not GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note to ensure that the applied
SPDX license was correct
This produced a worksheet with 20 files needing minor correction. This
worksheet was then exported into 3 different .csv files for the
different types of files to be modified.
These .csv files were then reviewed by Greg. Thomas wrote a script to
parse the csv files and add the proper SPDX tag to the file, in the
format that the file expected. This script was further refined by Greg
based on the output to detect more types of files automatically and to
distinguish between header and source .c files (which need different
comment types.) Finally Greg ran the script using the .csv files to
generate the patches.

The Texas Instrument's Keystone 2 family of SoCs has 1 or more
TMS320C66x DSP Core Subsystems (C66x CorePacs). Each subsystem has
a C66x Fixed/Floating-Point DSP Core, with 32KB of L1P and L1D SRAMs,
that can be configured and partitioned as either RAM and/or Cache,
and 1 MB of L2 SRAM. The CorePac also includes an Internal DMA (IDMA),
External Memory Controller (EMC), Extended Memory Controller (XMC)
with a Memory Protection and Address Extension (MPAX) unit, a Bandwidth
Management (BWM) unit, an Interrupt Controller (INTC) and a Powerdown
Controller (PDC).
A new remoteproc module is added to perform the device management of
these DSP devices. The driver expects the firmware names to be of the
form "keystone-dsp<X>-fw", where X is the corresponding DSP number, and
uses the standard remoteproc core ELF loader. The support is limited
to images only using the DSP internal memories at the moment. This
remoteproc driver is also designed to work with virtio, and uses the
IPC Generation registers for performing the virtio signalling and
getting notified of exceptions.
The driver currently supports the 66AK2H/66AK2K, 66AK2L and 66AK2E
SoCs.

slim core is used as a basis for many IPs in the STi
chipsets such as fdma and demux. To avoid duplicating
the elf loading code in each device driver a slim
rproc driver has been created.
This driver is designed to be used by other device drivers
such as fdma, or demux whose IP is based around a slim core.
The device driver can call slim_rproc_alloc() to allocate
a slim rproc and slim_rproc_put() when finished.
This driver takes care of ioremapping the slim
registers (dmem, imem, slimcore, peripherals), whose offsets
and sizes can change between IP's. It also obtains and enables
any clocks used by the device. This approach avoids having
a double mapping of the registers as slim_rproc does not register
its own platform device. It also maps well to device tree
abstraction as it allows us to have one dt node for the whole
device.
All of the generic rproc elf loading code can be reused, and
we provide start() stop() hooks to start and stop the slim
core once the firmware has been loaded. This has been tested
successfully with fdma driver.

Add a remoteproc driver to load the firmware and boot a small
Wakeup M3 processor present on TI AM33xx and AM43xx SoCs. This
Wakeup M3 remote processor is an integrated Cortex M3 that allows
the SoC to enter the lowest possible power state by taking control
from the MPU after it has gone into its own low power state and
shutting off any additional peripherals.
The Wakeup M3 processor has two internal memory regions - 16 kB of
unified instruction memory called UMEM used to store executable
code, and 8 kB of data memory called DMEM used for all data sections.
The Wakeup M3 processor executes its code entirely from within the
UMEM and uses the DMEM for any data. It does not use any external
memory or any other external resources. The device address view has
the UMEM at address 0x0 and DMEM at address 0x80000, and these are
computed automatically within the driver based on relative address
calculation from the corresponding device tree IOMEM resources.
These device addresses are used to aid the core remoteproc ELF
loader code to properly translate and load the firmware segments
through the .rproc_da_to_va ops.

Add a remoteproc driver for OMAP4, so we can boot the dual-M3 and
and DSP subsystems.
Use the omap_device_* API to control the hardware state, and utilize
the OMAP mailbox to interrupt the remote processor when a new message
is pending (the mailbox payload is used to tell it which virtqueue was
the message placed in).
Conversely, when an inbound mailbox message arrives, tell the remoteproc
core which virtqueue is triggered.
Later we will also use the mailbox payload to signal omap-specific
events like remote crashes (which will be used to trigger remoteproc
recovery) and power management transitions. At that point we will also
extend the remoteproc core to support this.

Create an rpmsg virtio device to allow message-based communication
with the remote processor (but only if supported by its firmware).
There are several advantages to provide this functionality at
the remoteproc-level:
- to support it, platforms only have to provide their own ->kick()
handler; no need to duplicate the rest of the code.
- the virtio device is created only when the remote processor is
registered and ready to go. No need to depend on initcall magic.
moreover, we only add the virtio device if the firmware really
supports it, and only after we know the supported virtio device features.
- correct device model hierarchy can be set, and that is useful
for natural power management and DMA API behavior.
- when the remote processor crashes (or removed) we only need
to remove the virtio device, and the driver core will take care of
the rest. No need to implement any out-of-bound notifiers.
- we can now easily bind the virtio device to its rproc handle, and
this way we don't need any name-based remoteproc ->get() API.
Currently we only support creating a single rpmsg virtio device per
remote processor, but later this is going to be extended to support
creating numerous virtio devices of other types too (block, net,
console...).

Modern SoCs typically employ a central symmetric multiprocessing (SMP)
application processor running Linux, with several other asymmetric
multiprocessing (AMP) heterogeneous processors running different instances
of operating system, whether Linux or any other flavor of real-time OS.
Booting a remote processor in an AMP configuration typically involves:
- Loading a firmware which contains the OS image
- Allocating and providing it required system resources (e.g. memory)
- Programming an IOMMU (when relevant)
- Powering on the device
This patch introduces a generic framework that allows drivers to do
that. In the future, this framework will also include runtime power
management and error recovery.
