Patches are generated using the "format-patch" command from the following location: *https://www.codeaurora.org/cgit/quic/kernel/galak-msm/log/?h=apq_ipq_base *rev=0771849495b4128cac2faf7d49c85c729fc48b20 Patches numbered 76/77/102/103 have already been integrated in 3.14.12, so they're not in this list. All these patches are either integrated are pending integration into kernel.org, therefore these patches should go away once the kernel gets upgraded to 3.16. Support is currently limited to AP148 board but can be extended to other platforms in the future. These changes do not cover ethernet connectivity.

Subject: [PATCH 053/182] of: document bindings for reserved-memory nodes
|
|
|
|
Reserved memory nodes allow for the reservation of static (fixed
|
|
address) regions, or dynamically allocated regions for a specific
|
|
purpose.
|
|
|
|
[joshc: Based on binding document proposed (in non-patch form) here:
|
|
http://lkml.kernel.org/g/20131030134702.19B57C402A0@trevor.secretlab.ca

+*** Reserved memory regions ***
|
|
+
|
|
+Reserved memory is specified as a node under the /reserved-memory node.
|
|
+The operating system shall exclude reserved memory from normal usage
|
|
+one can create child nodes describing particular reserved (excluded from
|
|
+normal use) memory regions. Such memory regions are usually designed for
|
|
+the special usage by various device drivers.
|
|
+
|
|
+Parameters for each memory region can be encoded into the device tree
|
|
+with the following nodes:
|
|
+
|
|
+/reserved-memory node
|
|
+---------------------
|
|
+#address-cells, #size-cells (required) - standard definition
|
|
+ - Should use the same values as the root node
|
|
+ranges (required) - standard definition
|
|
+ - Should be empty
|
|
+
|
|
+/reserved-memory/ child nodes
|
|
+-----------------------------
|
|
+Each child of the reserved-memory node specifies one or more regions of
|
|
+reserved memory. Each child node may either use a 'reg' property to
|
|
+specify a specific range of reserved memory, or a 'size' property with
|
|
+optional constraints to request a dynamically allocated block of memory.
|
|
+
|
|
+Following the generic-names recommended practice, node names should
|
|
+reflect the purpose of the node (ie. "framebuffer" or "dma-pool"). Unit
|
|
+address (@<address>) should be appended to the name if the node is a
|
|
+static allocation.
|
|
+
|
|
+Properties:
|
|
+Requires either a) or b) below.
|
|
+a) static allocation
|
|
+ reg (required) - standard definition
|
|
+b) dynamic allocation
|
|
+ size (required) - length based on parent's #size-cells
|
|
+ - Size in bytes of memory to reserve.
|
|
+ alignment (optional) - length based on parent's #size-cells
|
|
+ - Address boundary for alignment of allocation.
|
|
+ alloc-ranges (optional) - prop-encoded-array (address, length pairs).
|
|
+ - Specifies regions of memory that are
|
|
+ acceptable to allocate from.
|
|
+
|
|
+If both reg and size are present, then the reg property takes precedence
|
|
+and size is ignored.
|
|
+
|
|
+Additional properties:
|
|
+compatible (optional) - standard definition
|
|
+ - may contain the following strings:
|
|
+ - shared-dma-pool: This indicates a region of memory meant to be
|
|
+ used as a shared pool of DMA buffers for a set of devices. It can
|
|
+ be used by an operating system to instanciate the necessary pool
|
|
+ management subsystem if necessary.
|
|
+ - vendor specific string in the form <vendor>,[<device>-]<usage>
|
|
+no-map (optional) - empty property
|
|
+ - Indicates the operating system must not create a virtual mapping
|
|
+ of the region as part of its standard mapping of system memory,
|
|
+ nor permit speculative access to it under any circumstances other
|
|
+ than under the control of the device driver using the region.
|
|
+reusable (optional) - empty property
|
|
+ - The operating system can use the memory in this region with the
|
|
+ limitation that the device driver(s) owning the region need to be
|
|
+ able to reclaim it back. Typically that means that the operating
|
|
+ system can use that region to store volatile or cached data that
|
|
+ can be otherwise regenerated or migrated elsewhere.
|
|
+
|
|
+Linux implementation note:
|
|
+- If a "linux,cma-default" property is present, then Linux will use the
|
|
+ region for the default pool of the contiguous memory allocator.
|
|
+
|
|
+Device node references to reserved memory
|
|
+-----------------------------------------
|
|
+Regions in the /reserved-memory node may be referenced by other device
|
|
+nodes by adding a memory-region property to the device node.
|
|
+
|
|
+memory-region (optional) - phandle, specifier pairs to children of /reserved-memory
|
|
+
|
|
+Example
|
|
+-------
|
|
+This example defines 3 contiguous regions are defined for Linux kernel:
|
|
+one default of all device drivers (named linux,cma@72000000 and 64MiB in size),
|
|
+one dedicated to the framebuffer device (named framebuffer@78000000, 8MiB), and
|
|
+one for multimedia processing (named multimedia-memory@77000000, 64MiB).
