ARM Versatile Express boards family
|
|
-----------------------------------
|
|
|
|
ARM's Versatile Express platform consists of a motherboard and one
|
|
or more daughterboards (tiles). The motherboard provides a set of
|
|
peripherals. Processor and RAM "live" on the tiles.
|
|
|
|
The motherboard and each core tile should be described by a separate
|
|
Device Tree source file, with the tile's description including
|
|
the motherboard file using a /include/ directive. As the motherboard
|
|
can be initialized in one of two different configurations ("memory
|
|
maps"), care must be taken to include the correct one.
|
|
|
|
Required properties in the root node:
|
|
- compatible value:
|
|
compatible = "arm,vexpress,<model>", "arm,vexpress";
|
|
where <model> is the full tile model name (as used in the tile's
|
|
Technical Reference Manual), eg.:
|
|
- for Coretile Express A5x2 (V2P-CA5s):
|
|
compatible = "arm,vexpress,v2p-ca5s", "arm,vexpress";
|
|
- for Coretile Express A9x4 (V2P-CA9):
|
|
compatible = "arm,vexpress,v2p-ca9", "arm,vexpress";
|
|
If a tile comes in several variants or can be used in more then one
|
|
configuration, the compatible value should be:
|
|
compatible = "arm,vexpress,<model>,<variant>", \
|
|
"arm,vexpress,<model>", "arm,vexpress";
|
|
eg:
|
|
- Coretile Express A15x2 (V2P-CA15) with Tech Chip 1:
|
|
compatible = "arm,vexpress,v2p-ca15,tc1", \
|
|
"arm,vexpress,v2p-ca15", "arm,vexpress";
|
|
- LogicTile Express 13MG (V2F-2XV6) running Cortex-A7 (3 cores) SMM:
|
|
compatible = "arm,vexpress,v2f-2xv6,ca7x3", \
|
|
"arm,vexpress,v2f-2xv6", "arm,vexpress";
|
|
|
|
Optional properties in the root node:
|
|
- tile model name (use name from the tile's Technical Reference
|
|
Manual, eg. "V2P-CA5s")
|
|
model = "<model>";
|
|
- tile's HBI number (unique ARM's board model ID, visible on the
|
|
PCB's silkscreen) in hexadecimal transcription:
|
|
arm,hbi = <0xhbi>
|
|
eg:
|
|
- for Coretile Express A5x2 (V2P-CA5s) HBI-0191:
|
|
arm,hbi = <0x191>;
|
|
- Coretile Express A9x4 (V2P-CA9) HBI-0225:
|
|
arm,hbi = <0x225>;
|
|
|
|
Top-level standard "cpus" node is required. It must contain a node
|
|
with device_type = "cpu" property for every available core, eg.:
|
|
|
|
cpus {
|
|
#address-cells = <1>;
|
|
#size-cells = <0>;
|
|
|
|
cpu@0 {
|
|
device_type = "cpu";
|
|
compatible = "arm,cortex-a5";
|
|
reg = <0>;
|
|
};
|
|
};
|
|
|
|
The motherboard description file provides a single "motherboard" node
|
|
using 2 address cells corresponding to the Static Memory Bus used
|
|
between the motherboard and the tile. The first cell defines the Chip
|
|
Select (CS) line number, the second cell address offset within the CS.
|
|
All interrupt lines between the motherboard and the tile are active
|
|
high and are described using single cell.
|
|
|
|
Optional properties of the "motherboard" node:
|
|
- motherboard's memory map variant:
|
|
arm,v2m-memory-map = "<name>";
|
|
where name is one of:
|
|
- "rs1" - for RS1 map (i.a. peripherals on CS3); this map is also
|
|
referred to as "ARM Cortex-A Series memory map":
|
|
arm,v2m-memory-map = "rs1";
|
|
When this property is missing, the motherboard is using the original
|
|
memory map (also known as the "Legacy memory map", primarily used
|
|
with the original CoreTile Express A9x4) with peripherals on CS7.
|
|
|
|
Motherboard .dtsi files provide a set of labelled peripherals that
|
|
can be used to obtain required phandle in the tile's "aliases" node:
|
|
- UARTs, note that the numbers correspond to the physical connectors
|
|
on the motherboard's back panel:
|
|
v2m_serial0, v2m_serial1, v2m_serial2 and v2m_serial3
|
|
- I2C controllers:
|
|
v2m_i2c_dvi and v2m_i2c_pcie
|
|
- SP804 timers:
|
|
v2m_timer01 and v2m_timer23
|
|
|
|
Current Linux implementation requires a "arm,v2m_timer" alias
|
|
pointing at one of the motherboard's SP804 timers, if it is to be
|
|
used as the system timer. This alias should be defined in the
|
|
motherboard files.
|
|
|
|
The tile description must define "ranges", "interrupt-map-mask" and
|
|
"interrupt-map" properties to translate the motherboard's address
|
|
and interrupt space into one used by the tile's processor.
