cover SMP support for Broadcom NSP

Hi,

This series adds SMP support for Broadcom's Northstar Plus SoC.

There are similar SMP enablement methods for many ARMv7 bsed SoCs. BCM NSP SoC, has a typical such mechanism - after power-on, the secondary core is held in a standby state, primary core provides a startup address for the secondary core and wakes it up. Booting of the secondary core is serialized using pen_release global variable.

The startup address is programmed at a special register location which is defined in the device tree using a "secondary-boot-reg" property in a node whose "enable-method" property matches.

The first patch adds cpu-enable-method in the device tree bindings documentation. It also updates ARM CPU device tree documentation with Broadcom Northstar Plus CPU details.

The second patch adds SMP support to the BCM NSP device tree file.

Finally, third patch, enables SMP on BCM NSP. It also consolidates common SMP handling between BCM NSP and BCM Kona.

This patch series is constructed based on Linux v4.3-rc2.

The source code is available at GITHUB:
https://github.com/Broadcom/cygnus-linux/tree/nsp-smp-v1

It is an internal SKU region. Is it handled differently in rest of the SoCs? What is that method?

Add SMP support for Broadcom's Northstar Plus SoC, cpu enable method and pen_release procedures. This changes also consolidates iProc family's - BCM NSP and BCM Kona, SMP handling in a common file.

Northstar Plus SoC is based on ARM Cortex-A9 revision r3p0 which requires configuration for ARM Errata 764369 for SMP. This change adds the needed configuration option.

Why is this boot_lock needed? As far as I understand it asserts that both CPUs leave nsp_boot_secondary() and nsp_secondary_init() at the same time.

Re: [PATCH 3/3] ARM: BCM: Add SMP support for Broadcom NSP

Add SMP support for Broadcom's Northstar Plus SoC, cpu enable method and pen_release procedures. This changes also consolidates iProc family's - BCM NSP and BCM Kona, SMP handling in a common file.

This will probably also work on normal Northstar CPUs without changes.

I think all that needs to be changed is adding to
arch/arm/boot/dts/bcm4708.dts

+ enable-method = "brcm,bcm-nsp-smp";
+ secondary-boot-reg = <0xffff0400>;

But I have not been able to confirm that yet.

Thanks,

Northstar Plus SoC is based on ARM Cortex-A9 revision r3p0 which requires configuration for ARM Errata 764369 for SMP. This change adds the needed configuration option.

Why is this boot_lock needed? As far as I understand it asserts that both CPUs leave nsp_boot_secondary() and nsp_secondary_init() at the same time.

Re: [PATCH 3/3] ARM: BCM: Add SMP support for Broadcom NSP

In reply to Hauke Mehrtens
Quoted 8 lines · Hauke Mehrtens
Quoted 4 lines · Kapil Hali

Add SMP support for Broadcom's Northstar Plus SoC, cpu enable method and pen_release procedures. This changes also consolidates iProc family's - BCM NSP and BCM Kona, SMP handling in a common file.

This will probably also work on normal Northstar CPUs without changes.

I think, it should work for most of the variants of Northstar family, except for those which have a BOOTROM bug.

Quoted 325 lines
Quoted 325 lines

Northstar Plus SoC is based on ARM Cortex-A9 revision r3p0 which requires configuration for ARM Errata 764369 for SMP. This change adds the needed configuration option.

Why is this boot_lock needed? As far as I understand it asserts that both CPUs leave nsp_boot_secondary() and nsp_secondary_init() at the same time.

It makes sure secondary cpu doesn't run away before primary cpu recognizes the presence of secondary cpu, it is a way of synchronization between primary and secondary cpu. This is the method used across many SoCs.

Add SMP support for Broadcom's Northstar Plus SoC, cpu enable method and pen_release procedures. This changes also consolidates iProc family's - BCM NSP and BCM Kona, SMP handling in a common file.

Quoted 4 lines
Quoted 2 lines

This will probably also work on normal Northstar CPUs without changes.

I think, it should work for most of the variants of Northstar family, except for those which have a BOOTROM bug.

Which SoC are affected by this BOOTROM bug?

Quoted 364 lines
Quoted 325 lines
Quoted 325 lines

Northstar Plus SoC is based on ARM Cortex-A9 revision r3p0 which requires configuration for ARM Errata 764369 for SMP. This change adds the needed configuration option.

I think, it should work for most of the variants of Northstar family, except for those which have a BOOTROM bug.

Which SoC are affected by this BOOTROM bug?

53012 is the one I am seeing. Not seeing it on 4708 (and assuming it is not present on 4709). Internally, we do the ugly bug workaround on all Northstar SoCs. The workaround is not acceptable upstream, so I am not pushing it. :)

Thanks,
Jon

Northstar Plus SoC is based on ARM Cortex-A9 revision r3p0 which requires configuration for ARM Errata 764369 for SMP. This change adds the needed configuration option.

Why is this boot_lock needed? As far as I understand it asserts that both CPUs leave nsp_boot_secondary() and nsp_secondary_init() at the same time.

It makes sure secondary cpu doesn't run away before primary cpu recognizes the presence of secondary cpu, it is a way of synchronization between primary and secondary cpu. This is the method used across many SoCs.

Add SMP support for Broadcom's Northstar Plus SoC, cpu enable method and pen_release procedures. This changes also consolidates iProc family's - BCM NSP and BCM Kona, SMP handling in a common file.

This will probably also work on normal Northstar CPUs without changes.

I think, it should work for most of the variants of Northstar family, except for those which have a BOOTROM bug.

Which SoC are affected by this BOOTROM bug?

Hi Hauke,

Now that you have tested Jon's patch which is based on my changes for SMP, shall I take his changes and add it on top of my changes and resend? Also, do I consider your Acked-by and Tested-by for the change?

Why is this boot_lock needed? As far as I understand it asserts that both CPUs leave nsp_boot_secondary() and nsp_secondary_init() at the same time.

It makes sure secondary cpu doesn't run away before primary cpu recognizes the presence of secondary cpu, it is a way of synchronization between primary and secondary cpu. This is the method used across many SoCs.

Add SMP support for Broadcom's Northstar Plus SoC, cpu enable method and pen_release procedures. This changes also consolidates iProc family's - BCM NSP and BCM Kona, SMP handling in a common file.

This will probably also work on normal Northstar CPUs without changes.

I think, it should work for most of the variants of Northstar family, except for those which have a BOOTROM bug.

Which SoC are affected by this BOOTROM bug?

Quoted 8 lines

53012 is the one I am seeing. Not seeing it on 4708 (and assuming it is not present on 4709). Internally, we do the ugly bug workaround on all Northstar SoCs. The workaround is not acceptable upstream, so I am not pushing it. :)

Thanks,
Jon

Hi Hauke,

Now that you have tested Jon's patch which is based on my changes for SMP, shall I take his changes and add it on top of my changes and resend? Also, do I consider your Acked-by and Tested-by for the change?

Thanks,
Kapil

Hi Kapil,

I tested this on Northstar 1.

I think Florian has to take the patches and you should hurry up because the merge window probably opens on Monday.

You can send all patches again with the bcm501x patch or just that one, I assume there are no changes needed for the other patches?

Hauke
