OK - I believe I have it working now. How does the following look? If this looks fine to you, then I will post a v2 including the driver update. Changes here: - dropped the generic message-manager compatible - dropped child nodes - moved the valid queue information to driver (no longer in dts) - rx interrupts per SoC are explicitly named list in binding(and dts) Texas Instruments' Message Manager Driver ======================================== The Texas Instruments' Message Manager is a mailbox controller that has configurable queues selectable at SoC(System on Chip) integration. The Message manager is broken up into queues in different address regions that are called "proxies" - each instance is unidirectional and is instantiated at SoC integration level to indicate receive or transmit path. Message Manager Device Node: =========================== Required properties: -------------------- - compatible: Shall be: "ti,k2g-message-manager" - reg-names queue_proxy_region - Map the queue proxy region. queue_state_debug_region - Map the queue state debug region. - reg: Contains the register map per reg-names. - #mbox-cells Shall be 2. Contains the queue ID and proxy ID in that order referring to the transfer path. - interrupt-names: Contains interrupt names matching the rx transfer path for a given SoC. Receive interrupts shall be of the format: "rx_<QID>_<PID>". For ti,k2g-message-manager, this shall contain: "rx_005_002", "rx_057_002" - interrupts: Contains the interrupt information corresponding to interrupt-names property. Example(K2G): ------------ msgmgr: msgmgr@02a00000 { compatible = "ti,k2g-message-manager"; #mbox-cells = <2>; reg-names = "queue_proxy_region", "queue_state_debug_region"; reg = <0x02a00000 0x400000>, <0x028c3400 0x400>; interrupt-names = "rx_005_002", "rx_057_002"; interrupts = <GIC_SPI 324 IRQ_TYPE_LEVEL_HIGH>, <GIC_SPI 327 IRQ_TYPE_LEVEL_HIGH>; }; pmmc: pmmc { [...] mbox-names = "rx", "tx"; # RX queue ID is 5, proxy ID is 2 # TX queue ID is 0, proxy ID is 0 mboxes= <&msgmgr 5 2>, <&msgmgr 0 0>; [...] }; -- Regards, Nishanth Menon -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe devicetree" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html

As per the internal TRM, there *only* 2 rx interrupts to the public world ARM on K2G. I just noticed that the public TRM conveniently stripped out every single useful information and replaced with TRM!!!!!*&^*&^&*%&^%&%&!!! Anyways, checked internal documentation to verify as well. we have multiple output paths to various compute systems, but only 2 receive paths. Ofcourse a different SoC will have different integration, which why the interrupt list will have to be compatible property. > >> - interrupts: Contains the interrupt information corresponding to >> interrupt-names property. >> >> Example(K2G): >> ------------ >> >> msgmgr: msgmgr@02a00000 { >> compatible = "ti,k2g-message-manager"; >> #mbox-cells = <2>; >> reg-names = "queue_proxy_region", "queue_state_debug_region"; >> reg = <0x02a00000 0x400000>, <0x028c3400 0x400>; >> interrupt-names = "rx_005_002", >> "rx_057_002"; >> interrupts = <GIC_SPI 324 IRQ_TYPE_LEVEL_HIGH>, >> <GIC_SPI 327 IRQ_TYPE_LEVEL_HIGH>; >> }; >> >> pmmc: pmmc { >> [...] >> mbox-names = "rx", "tx"; >> # RX queue ID is 5, proxy ID is 2 >> # TX queue ID is 0, proxy ID is 0 >> mboxes= <&msgmgr 5 2>, >> <&msgmgr 0 0>; >> [...] >> }; > > Yeah, this will also work.

The overall story is something like what you already figured out.. message manager has a queue engine and a ram for data buffers, and n queues. Each of these queues have a memory map corresponding to the processor view.. we can call that programming paramater as well. > interrupt-names = "irq_005", "irq_037", "irq_049", "irq_057", > "perr", "ferr", "eerr"; proxy error (perr), free index error(ferr) and ECC error(eerr) cannot be handled by a slave, since it involves controlling a shared register set for a single message manager instance. in the case of K2G, the master of the message manager is actually PMMC, and not the compute processors - it has error handling logic to handle things there - a slave can only report these errors without ability to even expect reliable detection (for example PMMC reacting even before any of these cores have come up from low power state). irq_37 and irq_49 go to the secure world and we have no access from ARM "non secure" world. the "missing documentation" would have helped clarify that :(.. > > I may be slightly off, but the idea remains to not have to encode any > consumer specific info in the provider node. I do realize the reasoning behind your suggestion here. the reasoning for providing rx_qid_pid as the interrupt name was as follows: I was hoping to get a future SoC to provide proxy specific error instead of a global error which is really useless since the processor generating error should be the guy actually be notified.. queue specific interrupts as well.. the reason for naming interrupts with the proxy id information was primarily to let the dtb ABI stay compatible with only additional properties defined when the new SoC gets supported. I can make it compatible for today's SoC, but based on what i explained, how about just "rx_<qid>" for the interrupt names? interrupt-names = "rx_005", "rx_057" (I kinda feel using "irq" for interrupt-names is actually redundant information)? *if* i manage to convince to get a new IP with proxy specific interrupts, then "perr_qid_pid" could then be introduced for that new compatible type..

Message Manager is a hardware block used to communicate with various processor systems within certain Texas Instrument's Keystone generation SoCs. This hardware engine is used to transfer messages from various compute entities(or processors) within the SoC. It is designed to be self contained without needing software initialization for operation.
