========================================================
Secondary CPU enable-method "al,alpine-smp" binding
========================================================
This document describes the "al,alpine-smp" method for
enabling secondary CPUs. To apply to all CPUs, a single
"al,alpine-smp" enable method should be defined in the
"cpus" node.
Enable method name: "al,alpine-smp"
Compatible machines: "al,alpine"
Compatible CPUs: "arm,cortex-a15"
Related properties: (none)
Note:
This enable method requires valid nodes compatible with
"al,alpine-cpu-resume" and "al,alpine-nb-service".
* Alpine CPU resume registers
The CPU resume register are used to define required resume address after
reset.
Properties:
- compatible : Should contain "al,alpine-cpu-resume".
- reg : Offset and length of the register set for the device
* Alpine System-Fabric Service Registers
The System-Fabric Service Registers allow various operation on CPU and
system fabric, like powering CPUs off.
Properties:
- compatible : Should contain "al,alpine-sysfabric-service" and "syscon".
- reg : Offset and length of the register set for the device
Example:
cpus {
#address-cells = <1>;
#size-cells = <0>;
enable-method = "al,alpine-smp";
cpu@0 {
compatible = "arm,cortex-a15";
device_type = "cpu";
reg = <0>;
};
cpu@1 {
compatible = "arm,cortex-a15";
device_type = "cpu";
reg = <1>;
};
cpu@2 {
compatible = "arm,cortex-a15";
device_type = "cpu";
reg = <2>;
};
cpu@3 {
compatible = "arm,cortex-a15";
device_type = "cpu";
reg = <3>;
};
};
cpu_resume {
compatible = "al,alpine-cpu-resume";
reg = <0xfbff5ed0 0x30>;
};
nb_service {
compatible = "al,alpine-sysfabric-service", "syscon";
reg = <0xfb070000 0x10000>;
};
