Re: [PATCH] phy: Add a driver for dm816x USB PHY

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

 



*gets increasingly confused*

The datasheet (sprs614e) only contains register addresses, and they
seem to match the TRM's USB chapter.  The only disagreement I can spot
is related to USB_CTRL register(s) in the control module (offsets
0x620 and 0x628) where
* the TRM claims both exist in the control module chapter (1.16.1.3),
one for each both
* the TRM's USB chapter claims only one exists, and its layout
(24.9.8.2) doesn't resemble the former one
* the datasheet agrees only one exists (but gives no layout)
* reality seems to disagree with both: I booted up our evm816x,
plugged in a mouse to confirm USB is functional, and attached JTAG:
both registers read as zero (contradicting both layouts) and appear to
ignore writes.

There doesn't seem to be any disagreement in the docs about the
USBPHY_CTRL regs (offsets 0x624 and 0x62c in control module) as far as
I can tell, and the documented reset values also match what I see via
JTAG.

This I mentioned: the only difference is related to GPIO mode (which
on the dm814x yields exactly that: GPIO, while the am335x uses it to
hook up UARTs).

Only in its ECHI/OCHI host controller, not the OTG one...


Anyhow, I didn't expect this small observation to end up becoming a
device archeology expedition, sorry about that ;-)

Ah, but there are two such series: Freon and Primus. Just to be
different, their part numbers are both allocated from the omap-L1xx
(arm+dsp) / tms320c674x (dsp only) / am1xxx (arm only) ranges, but
distinguished by Freon having even final digit while Primus has odd
final digit. Of course this doesn't hold for the da8xx parts, that
would be too consistent.

But you're right, da850 indeed seems to be a Freon rather than a
Primus based on some more googling (apparently da850 has SATA --
Primus doesn't).
