<content type='text'>
The existing compatible name for U-Boot's k3 system controller driver
i.e "ti,am625-system-controller" has been added to linux[1] device-tree.
This compatible in kernel is meant for configuring the Control Module
registers (CTRL_MMR0).

However in U-Boot, the matching driver was being used to load the system
firmware on the secure M-cores by the R5 SPL and therefore must be
updated to a different compatible to avoid conflicts.

Therefore, this patch renames all references of the compatible to
"ti,am654-tisci-rproc-r5". The "-r5" is appended so as to avoid any
future conflicts since r5 specific compatibles should only be useful for
U-Boot.

If there is an optional boot notification channel that an SoC uses
separate from the rx path, use the same.

<title>remoteproc: k3_r5: Sync to upstreamed kernel DT property names</title>

<content type='text'>
The K3 R5F remoteproc driver in U-Boot was upstreamed prior to the
equivalent remoteproc driver in the Linux kernel. Some of the DT
properties used in U-Boot got upstreamed using different names
in Linux kernel.

The modified property names include the R5F cluster mode configuration
property "lockstep-mode"; and three different individual R5F core config
properties - "atcm-enable", "btcm-enable" and "loczrama". The property
names were updated as follows:
  lockstep-mode =&gt; ti,cluster-mode
  atcm-enable   =&gt; ti,atcm-enable
  btcm-enable   =&gt; ti,btcm-enable
  loczrama      =&gt; ti,loczrama

Update the K3 R5F remoteproc driver, the corresponding binding, and
all the existing usage in AM65x, J721E and J7200 dts files all at
once to use the new properties and to not break any bisectability.

The K3 J7200 SoCs have two dual-core Arm R5F clusters/subsystems, with
2 R5F cores each, one in each of the MCU and MAIN voltage domains.

These clusters are a revised version compared to those present on
J721E SoCs. Update the K3 R5F remoteproc bindings with the compatible
info relevant to these R5F clusters/subsystems on K3 J7200 SoCs.

The Texas Instruments K3 family of SoCs have one of more dual-core
Arm Cortex R5F processor subsystems/clusters (R5FSS). Add the device
tree bindings document for these R5F subsystem devices. These R5F
processors do not have an MMU, and so require fixed memory carveout
regions matching the firmware image addresses. The nodes require more
than one memory region, with the first memory region used for DMA
allocations at runtime. The remaining memory regions are reserved
and are used for the loading and running of the R5F remote processors.

The added example illustrates the DT nodes for the single R5FSS device
present on K3 AM65x family of SoCs.

K3 specific SoCs have a dedicated microcontroller for doing
resource management. Any HLOS/firmware on compute clusters should
load a firmware to this microcontroller before accessing any resource.
Adding support for loading this firmware.

After the K3 system controller got loaded with firmware and started
up it sends out a boot notification message through the secure proxy
facility using the TI SCI protocol. Intercept and receive this message
through the rproc start operation which will need to get invoked
explicitly after the firmware got loaded.

<title>drivers: Introduce a simplified remoteproc framework</title>

Many System on Chip(SoC) solutions are complex with multiple processors
on the same die dedicated to either general purpose of specialized
functions. Many examples do exist in today's SoCs from various vendors.
Typical examples are micro controllers such as an ARM M3/M0 doing a
offload of specific function such as event integration or power
management or controlling camera etc.

Traditionally, the responsibility of loading up such a processor with a
firmware and communication has been with a High Level Operating
System(HLOS) such as Linux. However, there exists classes of products
where Linux would need to expect services from such a processor or the
delay of Linux and operating system being able to load up such a
firmware is unacceptable.

To address these needs, we need some minimal capability to load such a
system and ensure it is started prior to an Operating System(Linux or
any other) is started up.

NOTE: This is NOT meant to be a solve-all solution, instead, it tries to
address certain class of SoCs and products that need such a solution.

A very simple model is introduced here as part of the initial support
that supports microcontrollers with internal memory (no MMU, no
execution from external memory, or specific image format needs). This
basic framework can then (hopefully) be extensible to other complex SoC
processor support as need be.
