[RFC 0/3] iommu/samsung: Introduce Exynos sysmmu-v8 driver

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

 



This is a draft of a new IOMMU driver used in modern Exynos SoCs (like
Exynos850) and Google's GS101 SoC (used in Pixel 6 phone). Most of its
code were taken from GS101 downstream kernel [1], with some extra
patches on top (fixes from Exynos850 downstream kernel and some porting
changes to adapt it to the mainline kernel). All development history can
be found at [2].

Similarities with existing exynos-iommu.c is minimal. I did some
analysis using similarity-tester tool:

8<-------------------------------------------------------------------->8
    $ sim_c -peu -S exynos-iommu.c "|" samsung-*

    exynos-iommu.c consists for 15 % of samsung-iommu.c material
    exynos-iommu.c consists for 1 %  of samsung-iommu-fault.c material
    exynos-iommu.c consists for 3 %  of samsung-iommu.h material
8<-------------------------------------------------------------------->8

So the similarity is very low, most of that code is some boilerplate
that shouldn't be extracted to common code (like allocating the memory
and requesting clocks/interrupts in probe function).

It was tested on v5.4 Android kernel on Exynos850 (E850-96 board) with
DPU use-case (displaying some graphics to the screen). Also it
apparently works fine on v5.10 GS101 kernel (on Pixel 6). On mainline
kernel I managed to build, match and bind the driver. No real world test
was done, but the changes from v5.10 (where it works fine) are minimal
(see [2] for details). So I'm pretty sure the driver is functional.

For this patch series I'd like to receive some high-level review for
driver's design and architecture. Coding style and API issues I can fix
later, when sending real (not RFC) series. Particularly I'd like to hear
some opinions about:
  - namings: Kconfig option, file names, module name, compatible, etc
  - modularity: should this driver be a different platform driver (like
    in this series), or should it be integrated into existing
    exynos-iommu.c driver somehow
  - dt-bindings: does it look ok as it is, or some interface changes are
    needed
  - internal driver architecture: approach seems to be similar to
    exynos-iommu.c, but any comments are welcome
  - ongoing work: please let me know if you're aware of some efforts to
    upstream this driver by some other party (e.g. Google engineers
    might be working on something similar)

Basically, I want to figure out what should be changed/fixed in this
driver (on a high level), so it can be considered "upstreamable".
