dt-bindings: ARM: sunxi: Document A80 SoC secure SRAM usage by SMP hotplug
On the Allwinner A80 SoC the BROM supports hotplugging the primary core (cpu0) by checking two 32bit values at a specific location within the secure SRAM block. This region needs to be reserved and accessible to the SMP code. Document its usage.

Allwinner SRAM for smp bringup:
|
||||
------------------------------------------------
|
||||
|
||||
Allwinner's A80 SoC uses part of the secure sram for hotplugging of the
|
||||
primary core (cpu0). Once the core gets powered up it checks if a magic
|
||||
value is set at a specific location. If it is then the BROM will jump
|
||||
to the software entry address, instead of executing a standard boot.
|
||||
|
||||
Therefore a reserved section sub-node has to be added to the mmio-sram
|
||||
declaration.
|
||||
|
||||
Note that this is separate from the Allwinner SRAM controller found in
|
||||
../../sram/sunxi-sram.txt. This SRAM is secure only and not mappable to
|
||||
any device.
|
||||
|
||||
Also there are no "secure-only" properties. The implementation should
|
||||
check if this SRAM is usable first.
|
||||
|
||||
Required sub-node properties:
|
||||
- compatible : depending on the SoC this should be one of:
|
||||
"allwinner,sun9i-a80-smp-sram"
|
||||
|
||||
The rest of the properties should follow the generic mmio-sram discription
|
||||
found in ../../misc/sram.txt
|
||||
|
||||
Example:
|
||||
|
||||
sram_b: sram@20000 {
|
||||
/* 256 KiB secure SRAM at 0x20000 */
|
||||
compatible = "mmio-sram";
|
||||
reg = <0x00020000 0x40000>;
|
||||
#address-cells = <1>;
|
||||
#size-cells = <1>;
|
||||
ranges = <0 0x00020000 0x40000>;
|
||||
|
||||
smp-sram@1000 {
|
||||
/*
|
||||
* This is checked by BROM to determine if
|
||||
* cpu0 should jump to SMP entry vector
|
||||
*/
|
||||
compatible = "allwinner,sun9i-a80-smp-sram";
|
||||
reg = <0x1000 0x8>;
|
||||
};
|
||||
};
