Hi Jason,
thank you for your feeback.

Hi everyone,
I am currently trying to describe an external device within a device

Here is what works for me:

reg = <0x0800 0 0 0 0>;

0x81000000 0 0 0x81000000 0x1 0 1 0>;
fpga@0 {

(some hopefully irrelevant items omitted for brevity)
So let me get this straight.
First of all (though slightly unrelated), I looked at
drivers/gpio/gpio-generic.c and found no reference whatsoever to the
of_* infrastructure.
So I realized of_device_alloc() populates the resource table of the
platform_device automatically -- I wasn't aware of that.
Second of all, if I understand it correctly (guessing the values for
#size-cells and #address-cells), your translation scheme works as
follows (let's say for the first register 0x8 of gpio3):
gpio3 (0x8)
-> range 0 of fpga@0 ==> 0x00000000 0x82000000 0x00000000
-> range 0 of pcie@1,0 ==> 0x82000000 0x1 0
-> range 1 of pex@e0000000 ==> MBUS_ID(0x04, 0xe8) 0
-> range 0 of mbus ==> 0xe0000000
so you end up accessing @0xe0000008, is that right?
Looks like it ends up at the beginning of the memory region for PCIe,
and that's no wonder since you only have a single device with a single
BAR... right?
So suppose you also had a bigger BAR1 which would then shift your GPIO
block at @0xe8000000.
I believe we've established (in other followup mails) it would be nice
to have a dynamic translation mechanism, which is not in place yet.
Until we get that figured out, where would you hardcode such offset then?
How would you also deal with a second (let's say identical) device on BAR1?
I guess I could live with hardcoded values in the DT, as long as they're
easy to spot and there's only one per BAR/device.
Then it's easy to do a comparison with whatever gets assigned during
probing.
(Apologies in advance if I'm talking nonsense, but I only see a bunch of
numbers in the above tree, I'm having a really hard time figuring out
how this whole translation works...)
I use code like this in the FPGA PCI driver to load the DT nodes:
struct of_device_id match_table[2] = {};
struct device_node *child;
int rc = 0;
for_each_child_of_node(root, child) {
/* Can't just create a single device.. */
strlcpy(match_table[0].name, child->name,
sizeof(match_table[0].name));
strlcpy(match_table[0].type, child->type,
sizeof(match_table[0].type));
rc = of_platform_bus_probe(child, match_table,
parent);
if (rc)
break;
}
(root would be the of_node of the FPGA)
Stupid question... why not the following:
rc = of_platform_populate(root, NULL, NULL, parent);
I've been using this in several places, though I've always wondered
whether there was indeed something wrong it...
[...]
But I found no way to describe which BAR it should refer to, for instance.
Perhaps the "rrrrrrrr" part of phys.hi, using BAR0=0x10, BAR1=0x14,
and so on? Or else I should define a new instance of of bus (i.e.
"pci_lbus_bridge") and invent yet another address encoding syntax?
I do feel there is some missing dynamic elements in this scheme, eg
the ranges value at the FPGA node should be dynamic based on the BAR
offset, but that is a generality that isn't important if you have only
one PCI device.
Right, which is my case... except, I have several BARs within it, which
does complicate things quite a bit, I'm afraid.
Thanks again Jason!
