[PATCH v8 00/18] Implement NTB Controller using multiple PCI EP

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



This series is about implementing SW defined Non-Transparent Bridge (NTB)
using multiple endpoint (EP) instances. This series has been tested using
2 endpoint instances in J7 connected to J7 board on one end and DRA7 board
on the other end. However there is nothing platform specific for the NTB
functionality.

This was presented in Linux Plumbers Conference. Link to presentation

Changes from v7:
1) Used values stored in ctrl_reg_bar, peer_spad_reg_bar and db_reg_bar
   instead of hardcoded values in pci_iomap of ntb_hw_epf.c driver

Changes from v6:
1) Fixed issues when multiple NTB devices are creating using multiple
   functions
2) Fixed issue with writing scratchpad register
3) Created a video demo @ [9]

Changes from v5:
1) Fixed a formatting issue in Kconfig pointed out by Randy
2) Checked for Error or Null in pci_epc_add_epf()

Changes from v4:
1) Fixed error condition checks in pci_epc_add_epf()

Changes from v3:
1) Fixed Documentation edits suggested by Randy Dunlap <rdunlap@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

Changes from v2:
1) Add support for the user to create sub-directory of 'EPF Device'
   directory (for endpoint function specific configuration using
   configfs).
2) Add documentation for NTB specific attributes in configfs
3) Check for PCI_CLASS_MEMORY_RAM (PCIe class) before binding ntb_hw_epf
   driver
4) Other documentation fixes

Changes from v1:
1) As per Rob's comment, removed support for creating NTB function
   device from DT
2) Add support to create NTB EPF device using configfs (added support in
   configfs to associate primary and secondary EPC with EPF.

Changes from RFC:
1) Converted the DT binding patches to YAML schema and merged the
   DT binding patches together
2) NTB documentation is converted to .rst
3) One HOST can now interrupt the other HOST using MSI-X interrupts
4) Added support for teardown of memory window and doorbell
   configuration
5) Add support to provide support 64-bit memory window size from
   DT
