Hello,

This mini-series adds initial support for the Realtek RTD1295 SoC and
the Zidoo X9S TV box.

v3 changes #address-cells, #size-cells and ranges.

With these patches CPU0 can be booted with earlycon.

PSCI doesn't work despite present in the vendor device tree; as enable-method
it instead used a custom "rtk-spin-table" that I sadly have no source code of.

The UARTs use a custom interrupt controller that I again lack source code of;
with interrupts = <GIC_SPI 41 IRQ_TYPE_LEVEL_HIGH> it can boot into an initrd.

The boot process is slightly twisted: The files need to be loaded from a
32-bit U-Boot, then boot into 64-bit U-Boot where the kernel can be booted.
Similar to my previous Amlogic S905 work, the TEXT_OFFSET poses a problem, so
a uImage needs to be used (or the kernel patched) for load address 0x00280000.
I haven't succeeded loading an initrd via bootm/booti; but as quick workaround
initrd=$rootfs_loadaddr,0x$filesize can manually be specified in $bootargs.

Cf. https://en.opensuse.org/HCL:Zidoo_X9S

More experimental patches at:
https://github.com/afaerber/linux/commits/rtd1295-next

Have a lot of fun!

Cheers,
Andreas

Add initial device trees for the RTD1295 SoC and the Zidoo X9S TV box.

The CPUs lack the enable-method property because the vendor device tree
uses a custom "rtk-spin-table" method and "psci" did not appear to work.

The UARTs lack the interrupts properties because the vendor device tree
connects them to a custom interrupt controller. earlycon works without.

A list of memory reservations is adopted from v1.2.11 vendor device tree:
0x02200000 can be used for an initrd, 0x01b00000 is audio-related;
ion-related 0x02600000, 0x02c00000 and 0x11000000 are left out;
0x10000000 is used for sharing the U-Boot environment; others remain
to be investigated.

Synology has now published source code for RTD1293/1296. This has
allowed me to narrow the RTD1295 CPU1..3 issue down to two changes in
arch/arm64/kernel/smp_spin_table.c:smp_spin_table_cpu_prepare():

1) writel_relaxed() instead of writeq_relaxed()
2) ioremap() instead of ioremap_cache()

Without those changes it hangs in earlycon after this line:
[ 0.043674] Mountpoint-cache hash table entries: 4096 (order: 3,
32768 bytes)

The size difference sounds easy enough - we could introduce an optional
cpu-release-size property to handle this or derive a "spin-table-32bit"
enable-method to that effect.

The second one appears to be caused by PROT_NORMAL vs.
PROT_DEVICE_nGnRE. Is there any simple check we could do on
cpu-release-addr to choose which MT to use?

https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit?id=113954c6463d1d80a206e91627ae49711f8b47cd

Any other ideas?

My above branch includes the above spin-table hack for now.

I think we had a similar problem before and concluded that something
requiring a write into an MMIO register is simply not a spin-table
implementation but something else.

Is this simply using a copy of the spin-table code to trigger the actual
booting of the secondary CPU? Can you identify the MMIO address?

Well, my understanding was that "something else" is not acceptable for
arm64. And still being without ATF, U-Boot and OP-TEE sources I don't
see how I could reimplement PSCI instead.

Yes. Realtek have duplicated and modified the file - I've instead tried
to reuse the existing code with those minimal changes, for a chance to
get this mainline with suitable conditions.

The only other Realtek changes are additions for cpu_disable/cpu_die
that I am ignoring for now. Happy that the cores are finally up!

> Can you identify the MMIO address?

The magic 32-bit register is 0x9801aa44, with RAM being 0..0x80000000.

Thus I was hoping there might be some handy is_ram_addr(phys_addr) that
we could use in generic code to choose the right ioremap function.
