Hi,
Texas Instruments' Keystone generation System on Chips (SoC)
starting with 66AK2G02[1], now include a dedicated SoC System Control
entity called PMMC(Power Management Micro Controller) in line with
ARM architecture recommendations. The function of this module is
to integrate all system operations in a centralized location.
Communication with the SoC System Control entity from various
processing units like ARM/DSP occurs over Message Manager hardware
block.
This series adds the base support for TI System Control Interface
(TI-SCI) protocol[2]. The protocol is built on top of Texas
Instrument's Message Manager communication mechanism[3].
Overall architecture is very similar to SCPI[4] as follows:
+-------------+ +---------+ +------^-----+
| TI SCI GENPD| |TISCI Clk| |TISCI reset |
+------+------+ +----+----+ +------+-----+
| | |
| +----v--------------+ |
+----------> TISCI Protocol(*) <--+
+----+--------------+
|
+---v-----------+
| MAILBOX FWK |
+---+-----------+
|
+---v-----------+
| TI MSGMGR |-> TISCI hardware block
+---------------+
(*) This series.
NOTE: Given that this is fundamental to the Keystone generation of SoC
starting with K2G, I have taken the liberty of adding Santosh, Tero
and myself as maintainers to these driver. Do let me know if that is
not appropriate.

Baseline: v4.8-rc1
boot log: http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/23071570/ (with additional SoC specific dts patches)
Patches can also be found: https://github.com/nmenon/linux-2.6-playground/commits/upstream/v4.9/tisci-base-v1
PS: We believe the churn is done in the protocol over the last 2 TI
vendor kernel versions and minimal changes may be involved in the
future. Obviously, a lot of folks (especially Russ Dill) have been
involved in making this happen.. unfortunately, the list is a bit too
long to elaborate here :(
