As a next step to dma-engine based cppi4.1 driver implementation
this RFC has the overview of changes in the musb driver.
RFC on CPPI slave driver changes will follow next.

Overview of changes in the musb driver
======================================

1)Add a dma-engine.c file in the drivers/usb/musb folder
2)This file will host the current musb dma APIs and translates them to
     dmaengine APIs.
3)This will help to keep the changes in drivers/usb/musb/musb* files
     minimal and also to retain compatibility other DMA (Mentor etc.)
     drivers which are yet to be moved to drivers/dma
4)drivers/usb/musb/dma-engine.c, will wrap the dmaengine APIs to
     make existing musb APIs compatible.
5)drivers/usb/musb/dma-engine.c file will implement the filter
     functions and also implement .dma_controller_create (allocates
     &    provides "dma_controller" object) and .dma_controller_delete
6)CPPI4.1 DMA specific queue and buffer management will be internal
     to slave CPPI DMA driver implementation.

      You mean drivers/dma/ driver?

yes.

I think you are forgotting that CPPI 4.1 MUSB
has some registers controlling DMA/interrupts beside those of CPPI 4.1
controller and MUSB core itself. How do they fit in your scheme?

We have been discussing on how to handle these in slave driver and

     These certainly cannot be handled in the slave driver because the
registers are different for every controller implementation and, the
main thing, they don't belong to CPPI 4.1 as such.

Felipe suggested to use device tree for differences in register maps
among different platforms.

I do see issues in reading wrapper interrupt status register and then
calling musb_interrupt() [defined inside musb_core.c] from slave driver.

I have been thinking about that lately. In the end of the day, I want to
remove direct dependencies between musb_core and glue. So what I was
thinking about goes like so:

Glue layer basically has to prepare musb->int_usb, musb->int_tx and
musb->int_rx for musb. Maybe handle some glue specific stuff and so on,
but the IRQ line still belongs to MUSB.

So the idea would be to add something like:

musb_platform_read_intrusb()
musb_platform_read_intrtx()
musb_platform_read_intrrx()

those would default to basic:

musb_readb(musb->mregs, MUSB_INTRUSB);
musb_readw(musb->mregs, MUSB_INTRTX);
musb_readw(musb->mregs, MUSB_INTRRX);

if platform ops aren't passed. So, it would look something like:

diff --git a/drivers/usb/musb/musb_core.c b/drivers/usb/musb/musb_core.c

  	if (musb->int_usb || musb->int_tx || musb->int_rx)
  		retval = musb_interrupt(musb);

those would make sure to prepare the cached IRQ status registers for
MUSB core.

Keep in mind that this is only necessary because on
DaVinci/OMAP-L13x/AM35x devices you guys have decided to make the
wrapper read the IRQ status register from MUSB address space. And
because those are clear-on-read, we're screwed.

Oh well, this is the best I could come up with. Any problems you guys
see ?

On DaVinci/OMAP-L1x these 3 calls need to extract data from a single 32-bit register, so that doesn't seem a good idea to me. The current scheme seems OK to me. Or either implement a signle function to read all 3 interrupt masks...

musb_platform_read_ints()
