The Programmable Real-Time Unit - Industrial Communication Subsystem (PRU-ICSS) is present on various TI SoCs such as AM335x or AM437x or the Keystone 66AK2G. Each SoC can have one or more PRUSS instances that may or may not be identical. For example, AM335x SoCs have a single PRUSS, while AM437x has two PRUSS instances PRUSS1 and PRUSS0, with the PRUSS0 being a cut-down version of the PRUSS1. The PRUSS consists of dual 32-bit RISC cores called the Programmable Real-Time Units (PRUs), some shared, data and instruction memories, some internal peripheral modules, and an interrupt controller. The programmable nature of the PRUs provide flexibility to implement custom peripheral interfaces, fast real-time responses, or specialized data handling. The PRU-ICSS functionality is achieved through three different platform drivers addressing a specific portion of the PRUSS. Some sub-modules of the PRU-ICSS IP reuse some of the existing drivers (like davinci mdio driver or the generic syscon driver). This design provides flexibility in representing the different modules of PRUSS accordingly, and at the same time allowing the PRUSS driver to add some instance specific configuration within an SoC. The PRUSS platform driver deals with the overall PRUSS and is used for managing the subsystem level resources like various memories and the CFG module. It is responsible for the creation and deletion of the platform devices for the child PRU devices and other child devices (like Interrupt Controller, MDIO node and some syscon nodes) so that they can be managed by specific platform drivers. The PRUSS interrupt controller is managed by an irqchip driver, while the individual PRU RISC cores are managed by a PRU remoteproc driver. The driver currently supports the AM335x SoC, and support for other TI SoCs will be added in subsequent patches. Signed-off-by: Suman Anna <s-anna@ti.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew F.
