This is a QCA9558 SoC (2ghz 3x3) with an atheros 11ac PCIe 5GHz 3x3
NIC and an AR8327 gigabit ethernet switch.
TODO:
* The AR8327 gigabit switch support bugfixes are forthcoming.
* 11ac support and 11ac NIC support
This is enough to bring up the basic SoC support.
What works thus far:
* The mips74k core, pll setup, and UART (or else well, stuff would
be really difficult..)
* both USB 2.0 EHCI controllers
* on-board 2GHz 3x3 wifi (the other variant has 2GHz/5GHz wifi on-chip);
* arge0 - not yet sure why arge1 isn't firing off interrupts and thus
handling traffic, but I will soon figure it out and fix it here.
Tested:
* AP135 reference design, QCA9558 SoC, pretending to be an 11n
2GHz AP.
TODO:
* There's an interrupt mux hooking up devices to IP2 and IP3 - but it's
not a read-and-clear or write-to-clear register. So, trying to use it
naively like I have been ends up with massive interrupt storms.
For now the things that share those interrupts can just take them as
shared interrupts and try to play nice.
* There's two PCIe root complexes /and/ one of them can actually be
a PCIe device endpoint. Yes, you heard right. I have to teach the
AR724x PCIe bridge code to handle multiple instances with multiple
memory/irq regions, and then there'll be RC support, but EP support
isn't on my TODO list.
* I'm not sure why arge1 isn't up and running. I'll go figure that
out soon and fix it here.
Thankyou to Qualcomm Atheros for providing me with hardware and
an abundance of documentation about these things.
the CPU nexus.
* Add ahb as a possible bus attachment
* Lay a comment down to remind me or whoever else ends up trying
to debug why the EEPROM isn't mapped in as to what's going on.
There's two EHCI controllers in the QCA955x SoCs - they have different
interrupts available via various demux registers, but they both tie to
IP3.
So for now, allow them to be sharable so they can hang off of IP3.

so only call brelse() when the bp is non-NULL.

Fix an extremely subtle concurrency bug triggered by running on 32-thread
POWER8 systems. During thread switch, there was a very small window when
the stack pointer was set to the stack pointer of the outgoing thread, but
after the lock on that thread had already been released.
If, during that window, the outgoing thread were rescheduled on another CPU
and begin execution and an exception were taken on the original CPU, the
trap handler and the outgoing thread would simultaneously execute on the same
stack, causing memory corruption. Fix this by making sure to release the
old thread only after cpu_switch() is done with its stack.

I noticed that openwrt/linux does this, citing "instability", so

So, it turns out that the AR8327 has 7 ports internally:
* GMAC0 / external (CPU) MAC0
* GMAC1 / port1 -> GMAC5 / port5: external switch port PHYs
* GMAC6 / external (CPU) MAC1
Now, depending upon how things are wired up, the second CPU port (MAC1)
can be wired to either the switch (port6), or through port5's PHY, bypassing
the GMAC+switch entirely. Ie, it can pretend to be a boring PHY, saving
system designers from having to include a separate PHY for a "WAN" port.
Here's the rub - the AP135 board (QCA955x SoC) hooks up arge0 to
the second CPU port on the AR8327, but it's hooked up as RGMII.
So, in order to hook it up to the rest of the switch, it isn't configured
as a separate PHY - OpenWRT has it setup as connected via RGMII to
GMAC6 and (I'm guessing) it's set to be a WAN port by configuring up
port-based VLANs or something.
Thus, with a port mask of 0x3f, GMAC6 was never allowed to receive traffic
from any other port. It could transmit fine, but not receive anything.
So, now it works enough for me to continue doing board bootstrapping.
Note, this isn't enough to make the QCA955x + AR8327 work - there's
a bunch of uncommitted work to both the platform SoC (interrupt handling,
ethernet, etc) and the ethernet switch (register access space, setup, etc)
that needs to happen. However, this particular change is also relevant to
other SoCs, like the AR934x and AR7161, both of which can be glued to
this switch.
Tested:
* AP135 development board
TODO:
* Figure out whether I can somehow abuse another port mode to have this
be a pass-through PHY, or whether I should just create some more boot
time hints to explicitly set up port-based isolation so this works
in a more useful way by default.
The main purpose of this feature is to be able to unload a KMS driver.
When going back from the current vt(4) backend to the previous backend,
the previous backend is reinitialized with the special VDF_DOWNGRADE
flag set. Then the current driver is terminated with the new "vd_fini"
callback.
In the case of vt_fb and vt_vga, this allows the former to pass the
vgapci device vt_fb used to vt_vga so the device can be rePOSTed.

expected to return the data in the memory location pointed at by target
after the operation. The FreeBSD atomic functions previously used return
either 0 or 1 to indicate if the comparison succeeded or not respectively.
With this change these functions only support ARMv6 and later are supported
by these functions.

There's a lot more to come - the QCA955x has a bunch more GPIO MUX
configuration, reminiscent of what the ARM chips let you do - but
it'll have to come later.
Change the numeric value of IPI_STOP_HARD so it doesn't occupy a valid IPI
slot. This can be done because IPI_STOP_HARD is actually delivered via NMI.

Add two functions for parsing the iovctl config file. The config
file is parsed using libucl[1], which accepts most YAML files and
a superset of JSON. The first function is an ad-hoc parser that
searches the file for the PF.DEVICE configuration value. We need
to know that value in order to fetch the schema from the kernel,
and we need the schema in order to be able to fully parse the file.
The second function parses the config file and validates it
against a schema. This function will exit with an error message
if any validation error occurs. If it succeeds, the configuration
is returned as an nvlist suitable for passing to the kernel.

Add an function to iovctl that validates the configuration against
a schema. This function is able to assume that the parser has
done most of the validation already and it's only responsible for
applying default VF values specified in the config file, confirming
that all required parameters have been set and that no invalid VF
numbers have been specified.

Pass all SR-IOV configuration to the kernel using an nvlist. The
main benefit that this offers is flexibility. It allows a driver
to accept any number of parameters of any type supported by the
SR-IOV configuration infrastructure with having to make any
changes outside of the driver.
It also offers the user very fine-grained control over the
configuration of the VFs -- if they want, they can have different
configuration applied to every VF.

Add a function that validates that the user-provided SR-IOV
configuration is valid. This includes basic checks that the
structure of the configuration is correct (e.g. all required
configuration nodes are present) as well as validating against
a configuration schema.
The schema validation consists of:
- Ensuring that all required config parameters are present.
- If the schema defines a default value for a parameter,
adding the default value if the parameter is not set.
- Ensuring that no parameters are specified in the config
that are not defined in the schema.
- Ensuring that have the correct type defined in the schema.
- Ensuring that no configuration nodes are present for devices
that do not exist. For example, if 2 VFs are configured,
then we validate that a node called VF-5 does not exist.
