Hi, The Programmable Real-Time Unit and Industrial Communication Subsystem (PRU-ICSS) is present on various TI SoCs such as AM335x, AM437x, AM57x, Keystone 66AK2G, etc. A PRUSS consists of dual 32-bit RISC cores (Programmable Real-Time Units, or PRUs), data and instruction RAMs, shard RAM, and interrupt controller and some internal peripheral modules to facilitate industrial communication. The programmable nature of the PRUs provide flexibility to implement custom peripheral interfaces, fast real-time responses, or specialized data handling. The common peripheral modules include the following, - an MII_RT module with two MII ports for Ethernet - an MDIO port for external Ethernet PHYs - an Industrial Ethernet Peripheral (IEP) to manage/generate Industrial Ethernet functions - an Enhanced Capture Module (eCAP) - an Industrial Ethernet Timer with 7/9 capture and 16 compare events - a 16550-compatible UART to support PROFIBUS A typical usage scenario would be to load the application firmware into one or more of the PRU cores, initialize one or more of the peripherals and perform I/O through shared RAM (or MSMC RAM) from either a Kernel driver or directly from userspace. With this two-part series we should be able to use the kernel RPMSG driver along with firmware and user-space examples in the pru-software-support-package [1]. We will also be able to get Dual Ethernet functionality using a kernel driver which will be posted later. The kernel code will be split into the following sections 1) soc: pruss_soc_bus: The sole purpose of this driver is to handle platform specific Power management quirks and allow the child node (i.e entire PRUSS) to be unbound from the default kernel driver and bound to something else. e.g. uio_pruss, while allowing to manage PM in the kernel. 2) soc: pruss: This is the driver for the entire ICSS. Its main purpose is to populate the different modules and handle platform specific quirks. It will also manage the interrupt controller and provide kernel APIs to change ICSS specific knobs in the CFG space e.g. GP_MUX. 3) remoteproc: pru: This provides a remoteproc interface for the PRU cores. With this we can load firmware, start/stop PRU from kernel or userspace. It adds support for virtio RPMSG. It also provides some kernel APIs (e.g. pru_rproc_set_ctable()) that are PRU specific and required for in-kernel applications (e.g. ethernet) 4) ARM: OMAP: DTS: Platform data and device tree files. Due to the large number of patches patches are split this into 2 email threads. This thread covers (1), (3) and (4). A second thread will cover the remoteproc driver (3). The series only adds platform support for AM335x to keep patch count small. Support for other platforms (AM43x, AM57x, K2G) will be added later. Testing: To test the code with example firmware you can try the LAB5 tutorial http://processors.wiki.ti.com/index.php/PRU_Training:_Hands-on_Labs#LAB_5:_RPMsg_Communication_between_ARM_and_PRU with the pru-software-support package at [2] and the sample rpmsg-client driver. NOTE: you no longer need to build and run PRU_Halt example as shown in the tutorial. cheers, -roger [1] https://git.ti.com/pru-software-support-package NOTE: The repo needs update to the INTC resource data structures The updates that are required are listed in the below repo with one example fixed.
