Palmer Dabbelt	2d2682512f	riscv: Allow device trees to be built into the kernel ... Some systems don't provide a useful device tree to the kernel on boot. Chasing around bootloaders for these systems is a headache, so instead le't's just keep a device tree table in the kernel, keyed by the SOC's unique identifier, that contains the relevant DTB. This is only implemented for M mode right now. While we could implement this via the SBI calls that allow access to these identifiers, we don't have any systems that need this right now.

Damien Le Moal	335b139057	riscv: Add SOC early init support ... Add a mechanism for early SoC initialization for platforms that need additional hardware initialization not possible through the regular device tree and drivers mechanism. With this, a SoC specific initialization function can be called very early, before DTB parsing is done by parse_dtb() in Linux RISC-V kernel setup code. This can be very useful for early hardware initialization for No-MMU kernels booted directly in M-mode because it is quite likely that no other booting stage exist prior to the No-MMU kernel. Example use of a SoC early initialization is as follows: static void vendor_abc_early_init(const void *fdt) { /* * some early init code here that can use simple matches * against the flat device tree file. */ } SOC_EARLY_INIT_DECLARE("vendor,abc", abc_early_init); This early initialization function is executed only if the flat device tree for the board has a 'compatible = "vendor,abc"' entry; Signed-off-by: Damien Le Moal <damien.lemoal@wdc.com> Signed-off-by: Anup Patel <anup.patel@wdc.com> Signed-off-by: Palmer Dabbelt <palmerdabbelt@google.com>	2020-04-03 10:46:43 -07:00
