Kernel-4.18.0-80.el8_st_fdma

  • STMicroelectronics Flexible Direct Memory Access Device Tree bindings

The FDMA is a general-purpose direct memory access controller capable of
supporting 16 independent DMA channels. It accepts up to 32 DMA requests.
The FDMA is based on a Slim processor which requires a firmware.

  • FDMA Controller

Required properties:

  • compatible : Should be one of
       - st,stih407-fdma-mpe31-11, "st,slim-rproc";
       - st,stih407-fdma-mpe31-12, "st,slim-rproc";
       - st,stih407-fdma-mpe31-13, "st,slim-rproc";
    
  • reg : Should contain an entry for each name in reg-names
  • reg-names : Must contain “slimcore”, “dmem”, “peripherals”, “imem” entries
  • interrupts : Should contain one interrupt shared by all channels
  • dma-channels : Number of channels supported by the controller
  • #dma-cells : Must be <3>. See DMA client section below
  • clocks : Must contain an entry for each clock
    See: Documentation/devicetree/bindings/clock/clock-bindings.txt

Example:

fdma0: dma-controller@8e20000 {
    compatible = "st,stih407-fdma-mpe31-11", "st,slim-rproc";
    reg = <0x8e20000 0x8000>,
          <0x8e30000 0x3000>,
          <0x8e37000 0x1000>,
          <0x8e38000 0x8000>;
    reg-names = "slimcore", "dmem", "peripherals", "imem";
    clocks = <&clk_s_c0_flexgen CLK_FDMA>,
         <&clk_s_c0_flexgen CLK_EXT2F_A9>,
         <&clk_s_c0_flexgen CLK_EXT2F_A9>,
         <&clk_s_c0_flexgen CLK_EXT2F_A9>;
    interrupts = <GIC_SPI 5 IRQ_TYPE_NONE>;
    dma-channels = <16>;
    #dma-cells = <3>;
};
  • DMA client

Required properties:

  • dmas: Comma separated list of dma channel requests
  • dma-names: Names of the aforementioned requested channels

Each dmas request consists of 4 cells:

  1. A phandle pointing to the FDMA controller
  2. The request line number
  3. A 32bit mask specifying (see include/linux/platform_data/dma-st-fdma.h)

-bit 2-0: Holdoff value, dreq will be masked for
0x0: 0-0.5us
0x1: 0.5-1us
0x2: 1-1.5us
-bit 17: data swap
0x0: disabled
0x1: enabled
-bit 21: Increment Address
0x0: no address increment between transfers
0x1: increment address between transfers
-bit 22: 2 STBus Initiator Coprocessor interface
0x0: high priority port
0x1: low priority port
4. transfers type
0 free running
1 paced

Example:

sti_uni_player2: sti-uni-player@2 {
    compatible = "st,sti-uni-player";
    #sound-dai-cells = <0>;
    st,syscfg = <&syscfg_core>;
    clocks = <&clk_s_d0_flexgen CLK_PCM_2>;
    assigned-clocks = <&clk_s_d0_flexgen CLK_PCM_2>;
    assigned-clock-parents = <&clk_s_d0_quadfs 2>;
    assigned-clock-rates = <50000000>;
    reg = <0x8D82000 0x158>;
    interrupts = <GIC_SPI 86 IRQ_TYPE_NONE>;
    dmas = <&fdma0 4 0 1>;
    dai-name = "Uni Player #1 (DAC)";
    dma-names = "tx";
    st,uniperiph-id = <2>;
    st,version = <5>;
    st,mode = "PCM";
