disabling rx interrupt on omap4 is different than its pre-decessors.
The bit in OMAP4_MAILBOX_IRQENABLE_CLR should be set to disable the
interrupts instead of clearing the bit.

Since it is not omap version specific but IP version specific, you should
not use cpu_is_ to do that. Moreover cpu_is calls should be used during
init
only.
You can use the rev field in hwmod_class in order to detect the IP
version.
Smartreflex series for 3630 is already using that kind of mechanism.
You will have to copy that revision information into pdata struct and
then
use that here.

I see your point, but since mailbox hwmod patches from Omar are still
under review I didn't find any other option than to enable this
This is critical functionality that I want to include in and not wait
till the hwmod patches are accepted.

OK, I didn't see that your series was supposed to be done before Omar's one.

Please let me know if there is any other way of approaching this problem ?

how about you read the IP revision yourself during probe ? Or pass in a
flag like I said on the other email ?


I like your proposal of reading the IP revision in probe. I will send
a revised patch for this.

Most of the time, we do not want to use the IP revision because it is un-accurate and does not reflect the change we'd like to track. For example some time a minor change in the RTL that will not impact the SW at all might trigger a change in the IP revision, whereas on the other hand a major bug fix that will impact the SW is not capture in the IP revision... yeah, that's bad, but this can happen.

That's why we are relying on a rev field in the hwmod.

Meanwhile, you can do the cpu_is check at init time, then fill a pdata attribute with a revision parameter, and use that revision parameter in the omap2_mbox_disable_irq. When hwmod will be there you will just extract that information from the hwmod rev field.

Benoit
