hw/fsi: Introduce IBM's cfam,fsi-slave,scratchpad
This is a part of patchset where IBM's Flexible Service Interface is introduced.
The Common FRU Access Macro (CFAM), an address space containing various "engines" that drive accesses on busses internal and external to the POWER chip. Examples include the SBEFIFO and I2C masters. The engines hang off of an internal Local Bus (LBUS) which is described by the CFAM configuration block.
The FSI slave: The slave is the terminal point of the FSI bus for FSI symbols addressed to it. Slaves can be cascaded off of one another. The slave's configuration registers appear in address space of the CFAM to which it is attached.
The scratchpad provides a set of non-functional registers. The firmware is free to use them, hardware does not support any special management support. The scratchpad registers can be read or written from LBUS slave. The scratch pad is managed under FSI CFAM state.
[ clg: - moved object FSIScratchPad under FSICFAMState - moved FSIScratchPad code under cfam.c - introduced fsi_cfam_instance_init() - reworked fsi_cfam_realize() ]

hw: Introduce models for IBM's Flexible Service Interface
Firstly, I'll split this patch up in the future, but wanted to get the integrated setup sent out for any initial thoughts. Anyway:
Time for some fun with inter-processor buses. FSI allows a service processor access to the internal busses of a host POWER processor to perform configuration or debugging.
FSI has long existed in POWER processes and so comes with some baggage, including how it has been integrated into the ASPEED SoC.
Working backwards from the POWER processor, the fundamental pieces of interest for the implementation are:
1. The Common FRU Access Macro (CFAM), an address space containing various "engines" that drive accesses on busses internal and external to the POWER chip. Examples include the SBEFIFO and I2C masters. The engines hang off of an internal Local Bus (LBUS) which is described by the CFAM configuration block.
2. The FSI slave: The slave is the terminal point of the FSI bus for FSI symbols addressed to it. Slaves can be cascaded off of one another. The slave's configuration registers appear in address space of the CFAM to which it is attached.
3. The FSI master: A controller in the platform service processor (e.g. BMC) driving CFAM engine accesses into the POWER chip. At the hardware level FSI is a bit-based protocol supporting synchronous and DMA-driven accesses of engines in a CFAM.
4. The On-Chip Peripheral Bus (OPB): A low-speed bus typically found in POWER processors. This now makes an appearance in the ASPEED SoC due to tight integration of the FSI master IP with the OPB, mainly the existence of an MMIO-mapping of the CFAM address straight onto a sub-region of the OPB address space.
5. An APB-to-OPB bridge enabling access to the OPB from the ARM core in the AST2600. Hardware limitations prevent the OPB from being directly mapped into APB, so all accesses are indirect through the bridge.
The implementation appears as following in the qemu device tree:
(qemu) info qtree bus: main-system-bus type System ... dev: aspeed.apb2opb, id "" gpio-out "sysbus-irq" 1 mmio 000000001e79b000/0000000000001000 bus: opb.1 type opb dev: fsi.master, id "" bus: fsi.bus.1 type fsi.bus dev: cfam.config, id "" dev: cfam, id "" bus: lbus.1 type lbus dev: scratchpad, id "" address = 0 (0x0) bus: opb.0 type opb dev: fsi.master, id "" bus: fsi.bus.0 type fsi.bus dev: cfam.config, id "" dev: cfam, id "" bus: lbus.0 type lbus dev: scratchpad, id "" address = 0 (0x0)
The LBUS is modelled to maintain the qdev bus hierarchy and to take advantage of the object model to automatically generate the CFAM configuration block. The configuration block presents engines in the order they are attached to the CFAM's LBUS. Engine implementations should subclass the LBusDevice and set the 'config' member of LBusDeviceClass to match the engine's type.
CFAM designs offer a lot of flexibility, for instance it is possible for a CFAM to be simultaneously driven from multiple FSI links. The modeling is not so complete; it's assumed that each CFAM is attached to a single FSI slave (as a consequence the CFAM subclasses the FSI slave).
As for FSI, its symbols and wire-protocol are not modelled at all. This is not necessary to get FSI off the ground thanks to the mapping of the CFAM address space onto the OPB address space - the models follow this directly and map the CFAM memory region into the OPB's memory region. Future work includes supporting more advanced accesses that drive the FSI master directly rather than indirectly via the CFAM mapping, which will require implementing the FSI state machine and methods for each of the FSI symbols on the slave. Further down the track we can also look at supporting the bitbanged SoftFSI drivers in Linux by extending the FSI slave model to resolve sequences of GPIO IRQs into FSI symbols, and calling the associated symbol method on the slave to map the access onto the CFAM.

Firstly, I'll split this patch up in the future, but wanted to get the integrated setup sent out for any initial thoughts. Anyway:
Time for some fun with inter-processor buses. FSI allows a service processor access to the internal busses of a host POWER processor to perform configuration or debugging.
FSI has long existed in POWER processes and so comes with some baggage, including how it has been integrated into the ASPEED SoC.
Working backwards from the POWER processor, the fundamental pieces of interest for the implementation are:
1. The Common FRU Access Macro (CFAM), an address space containing various "engines" that drive accesses on busses internal and external to the POWER chip. Examples include the SBEFIFO and I2C masters. The engines hang off of an internal Local Bus (LBUS) which is described by the CFAM configuration block.
2. The FSI slave: The slave is the terminal point of the FSI bus for FSI symbols addressed to it. Slaves can be cascaded off of one another. The slave's configuration registers appear in address space of the CFAM to which it is attached.
3. The FSI master: A controller in the platform service processor (e.g. BMC) driving CFAM engine accesses into the POWER chip. At the hardware level FSI is a bit-based protocol supporting synchronous and DMA-driven accesses of engines in a CFAM.
4. The On-Chip Peripheral Bus (OPB): A low-speed bus typically found in POWER processors. This now makes an appearance in the ASPEED SoC due to tight integration of the FSI master IP with the OPB, mainly the existence of an MMIO-mapping of the CFAM address straight onto a sub-region of the OPB address space.
5. An APB-to-OPB bridge enabling access to the OPB from the ARM core in the AST2600. Hardware limitations prevent the OPB from being directly mapped into APB, so all accesses are indirect through the bridge.
The implementation appears as following in the qemu device tree:
(qemu) info qtree bus: main-system-bus type System ... dev: aspeed.apb2opb, id "" gpio-out "sysbus-irq" 1 mmio 000000001e79b000/0000000000001000 bus: opb.1 type opb dev: fsi.master, id "" bus: fsi.bus.1 type fsi.bus dev: cfam.config, id "" dev: cfam, id "" bus: lbus.1 type lbus dev: scratchpad, id "" address = 0 (0x0) bus: opb.0 type opb dev: fsi.master, id "" bus: fsi.bus.0 type fsi.bus dev: cfam.config, id "" dev: cfam, id "" bus: lbus.0 type lbus dev: scratchpad, id "" address = 0 (0x0)
The LBUS is modelled to maintain the qdev bus hierarchy and to take advantage of the object model to automatically generate the CFAM configuration block. The configuration block presents engines in the order they are attached to the CFAM's LBUS. Engine implementations should subclass the LBusDevice and set the 'config' member of LBusDeviceClass to match the engine's type.
CFAM designs offer a lot of flexibility, for instance it is possible for a CFAM to be simultaneously driven from multiple FSI links. The modeling is not so complete; it's assumed that each CFAM is attached to a single FSI slave (as a consequence the CFAM subclasses the FSI slave).
As for FSI, its symbols and wire-protocol are not modelled at all. This is not necessary to get FSI off the ground thanks to the mapping of the CFAM address space onto the OPB address space - the models follow this directly and map the CFAM memory region into the OPB's memory region. Future work includes supporting more advanced accesses that drive the FSI master directly rather than indirectly via the CFAM mapping, which will require implementing the FSI state machine and methods for each of the FSI symbols on the slave. Further down the track we can also look at supporting the bitbanged SoftFSI drivers in Linux by extending the FSI slave model to resolve sequences of GPIO IRQs into FSI symbols, and calling the associated symbol method on the slave to map the access onto the CFAM.
