The Tegra HSP mailbox driver implements the signaling doorbell-based
interprocessor communication (IPC) for remote processors currently. The
HSP HW modules support some different features for that, which are
shared mailboxes, shared semaphores, arbitrated semaphores, and
doorbells. And there are multiple HSP HW instances on the chip. So the
driver is extendable to support more features for different IPC
requirement.

The driver of remote processor can use it as a mailbox client and deal
with the IPC protocol to synchronize the data communications.

Changes in V2:
- Update the driver to support the binding changes in V2
- it's extendable to support multiple HSP sub-modules on the same HSP HW
block
    now.

Would be nice to have comments to understand what SM, SS, AS, etc.
stand for (Shared Mailboxes, Shared Semaphores, Arbitrated Semaphores
but you need to look at the patch description to understand that). A
top-of-file comment explaning the necessary concepts to read this code
would do the trick.

Yes, will fix that.

Maybe turn this into enum and use that type for
tegra_hsp_db_chan::db_id? Also have MAX_NUM_HSP_DB here, since it is
related to these values?

I wonder if this could not be optimized. You are doing a double loop
on MAX_NUM_HSP_CHAN to look for an identical master_id. Since it seems
like the same master_id cannot be used twice (considering that the
inner loop only processes the first match), couldn't you just select
the free channel in of_hsp_mbox_xlate() by doing
&mbox->chans[master_id] (and returning an error if it is already
used), then simply getting chan as &hsp_mbox->mbox->chans[master_id]
instead of having the inner loop below? That would remove the need for
the second loop.


That was exactly what I did in the V1, which only supported one HSP
sub-module per HSP HW block. So we can just use the master_id as the mbox
channel ID.

Meanwhile, the V2 is purposed to support multiple HSP sub-modules to be
running on the same HSP HW block. The "ID" between different modules could
be conflict. So I dropped the mechanism that used the master_id as the mbox
channel ID.

Instead, the channel is allocated at the time, when the client is bound to
one of the HSP sub-modules. And we store the "ID" information into the
private mbox channel data, which can help us to figure out which mbox
channel should response to the interrupt.

In the doorbell case, because all the DB clients are shared the same DB IRQ
at the CPU side. So in the ISR, we need to figure out the IRQ source, which
is the master_id that the IRQ came from. This is the outer loop. The inner
loop, we figure out which channel should response to by checking the type
and ID.

And I think it should be pretty quick, because we only check the set bit
>from the pending register. And finding the matching channel.

Yeah, I am not worried about the CPU time (although in interrupt
context, we always should), but rather about whether the code could be
simplified.

Ah, I think I get it. You want to be able to receive interrupts from
the same master, but not necessarily for the doorbell function.
Because of this you cannot use master_id as the index for the channel.
Am I understanding correctly?

Yes, the DB clients trigger the IRQ through the same master
(HSP_DB_CCPLEX) with it's master_id. We (CPU) can check the ID to
know who is requesting the HSP mbox service. Each ID is unique under
the DB module.

But the ID could be conflict when the HSP mbox driver are working
with multiple HSP sub-function under the same HSP HW block. So we
can't just match the ID to the HSP mbox channel ID.

Joseph, can you think about any other sub-function that uses the same
master ids (& those that does not have their own irqs)? I wonder if we
are over-engineering this. I think the hsp_db_startup() and
hsp_db_shutdown() does not support sharing masters - _startup() by one
followed by _shutdown() from another will mask the interrupt. If there
is infact other potential sub-functions, I would imagine this will
translate to other values of the tegra_hsp_mbox_chan.type than
HSP_MBOX_TYPE_DB? If yes, then you should be able to remove need of this
inner loop by having per-sub-function mboxes or by combining 'type' and
'master_id' to make single index value?


I will try to refactor the driver to fix the inner loop issue by separating the mbox channel with different HSP modules. And hook different sub channels for different masters.

Thanks,
-Joseph
