Subject[PATCH 0/5] Support for LEGO MINDSTORTMS EV3
Message-ID<suMTw-Zb-7@gated-at.bofh.it>
This patch series adds support for LEGO MINDSTORTMS EV3[1]. This is a TI AM1808
based board.

This patch series has been tested working (along with some hacks to fix the
GPIOs) on an EV3.

There are still quite a few additional new drivers that need to be submitted
to get everything working. This patch series just adds support for the parts
that already have mainline kernel drivers.

I have a plan/driver in progress for many of the components[2], but I could use
some advice on a few particulars.

Bluetooth: This needs a driver to sequence a GPIO to take the Bluetooth chip
out of shutdown *after* the Bluetooth clock has been configured and started.
Is there a generic driver that can do this sort of thing? Or, if not, which
subsystem should the new driver go in?

Input and output ports: These ports are capable of hotplugging various devices,
such as sensors and motors. I have written a driver for these that can detect
most devices. I created a new subsystem for this called `lego-port`. However,
I am wondering if the existing phy or extcon subsystems might be a good fit for
this sort of thing.

#1506221 — [PATCH 5/5] ARM: dts: Add LEGO MINDSTORTMS EV3 dts

FromDavid Lechner <david@lechnology.com>
Date2016-10-21 20:40 +0200
Subject[PATCH 5/5] ARM: dts: Add LEGO MINDSTORTMS EV3 dts
Message-ID<suMTw-Zb-27@gated-at.bofh.it>
In reply to#1506220
This adds a device tree definition file for LEGO MINDSTORMS EV3.

What is working:

* Pin muxing
* MicroSD card reader
* UART on input port 1

What is partially working:

* Buttons - working after GPIO fix
* LEDs - working after GPIO fix
* Poweroff/reset - working after GPIO fix
* Flash memory - driver loads but can't read the block devices - this is
  probably due to the fact that we are not able to configure the SPI to
  use DMA via device tree
* EEPROM - there seems to be a hardware bug that causes the first byte
  read to be corrupted - this can be worked around by adding an I2C stop
  between writing the register and reading the data, but the at24 driver
  does not have an option to do this

What is not working/to be added later:

* Display - waiting for "tiny DRM" to be mainlined
* Speaker - needs new PWM sound driver
* USB - waiting for OHCI and MUSB device tree support to be mainlined
* ADC - needs new iio driver
* GPIOs - broken because of recent changes to core gpio driver
* Bluetooth - needs new driver for sequencing power/enable/clock
* Input and output ports - need some sort of new phy or extcon driver
* Battery - needs new power supply driver (depends on ADC iio driver)

nit: can you name this da850-lego-ev3.dts

Though it's not very strictly enforced, we *try* to use the form
<soc>-<board>.dts.

Is the GPIO fix something that will go in v4.9-rc cycle ?

Hmm, I would not have expected PIO mode to be so inefficient that you
are unable to even read the block device.

Sigh. This is quite an abuse :)

I know we don't have a good way to configure this in kernel today. And I
am surprised we never had to care about disabling pullups so far. Can
you clarify why you need it? I assume there is some contention you want
to avoid, but on which interface?

I dont think this can be done this way using pinctrl-single. A small
driver to handle pullup/down control for da850 may have to be added to
drivers/pinctrl. It will be better to check with Linus Walleij on his
thoughts using a new thread ccing the pinctrl subsystem list as well.

Thats 256KB for U-Boot and MLO (I assume in concatenated AIS image). Is
that sufficient for future too? Moving partitions later is tough ask
because that means users will lose data when they upgrade the kernel
because of partitions moving around. Just a suggestion to keep future
U-Boot bloat in mind and not use a "just fits" number.

I am getting a -EIO error. I haven't been able to trace down exactly

The EV3 was designed with external pullup/pulldown everywhere. I know 
for certain that it breaks one of the buttons if you do not disable the 
internal ones. I imagine that it would have subtle effects elsewhere if 
they are not disabled.

I have not gone through each pullup/pulldown bank individually, but it 
would not surprise me at all if there was at least one thing on most of 
them that would be adversely affected.

I will be glad to try to make a driver, but when I ran into this problem 
I could not find much information on how to handle banks of 
pullup/pulldown. Most of what I saw was for ones that can be 
individually controlled. If anyone knows something like this already 
that I could look at, it would be helpful to me.

It will be possible to uses these gpios via sysfs (until a proper driver 
for input and output ports is merged). So how about I attach these to 
the gpio node for now?

Not sure why I have this disabled. Like the gpios, the pwms can be used 
via sysfs, so I would like to leave them.

The MLO is on an EEPROM in the EV3, so the U-Boot partition is just 
U-boot. The SoC boots from I2C, which then runs whatever is as 0x0 on 
the flash memory.

This partition table matches the partition scheme used on the official 
LEGO firmware that ships with the devices. Most people running their own 
kernel will probably be loading it from a microSD card, leaving the 
official firmware intact and therefore will always have this partition 
table.

My thinking is that if someone does want to use a different partitioning 
scheme, they can build their own U-Boot and configure it to modify the 
device tree with a new partition table.

The way the LEGO firmware flashing utility works, it wipes out the 
entire flash memory each time you flash the firmware. So, data loss is 
not a concern - you will loose your data anyway.

What if we set this up as a spidev node instead? This way the display 
could be used from userspace without a driver.

Now I remember why these are disabled. The clock matching is broken. 
Only the first ehrpwm and the first ecap get clocks. The others fail.

I can change these to "okay". It will just result in a kernel error 
message until the clocks are fixed.

correction: it is not the clocks that are broken. it is the device names.

In  arch/arm/mach-davinci/da8xx-dt.c, we have...


	OF_DEV_AUXDATA("ti,da850-ehrpwm", 0x01f00000, "ehrpwm", NULL),
	OF_DEV_AUXDATA("ti,da850-ehrpwm", 0x01f02000, "ehrpwm", NULL),
	OF_DEV_AUXDATA("ti,da850-ecap", 0x01f06000, "ecap", NULL),
	OF_DEV_AUXDATA("ti,da850-ecap", 0x01f07000, "ecap", NULL),
	OF_DEV_AUXDATA("ti,da850-ecap", 0x01f08000, "ecap", NULL),


Which causes each device to have the same device node name. This causes 
sysfs errors because it is trying to register a second device at the 
same sysfs path.

If you change the names here, then the device do not work because the 
clock lookup fails.

Yeah, this is incorrect (I should have caught it in review). The device
id should have been present in the lookup. Can you fix auxdata and clock
lookup too and send a separate patch? Its probably a v4.9-rc candidate.

To answer my own question, it seems that specifying "spidev" in 
devicetree is frowned upon since it does not "describe the hardware".

#1506222 — [PATCH 1/5] ARM: davinci: Compile MMC in kernel

FromDavid Lechner <david@lechnology.com>

Subject[PATCH 1/5] ARM: davinci: Compile MMC in kernel
Message-ID<suMTw-Zb-29@gated-at.bofh.it>
In reply to#1506220
This changes the davinci default configuration to compile the davinci
MMC driver into the kernel. This allows booting from an SD card without
requiring an initrd containing the kernel module.

"build" is more relevant here than "compile" so I changed that. And also
used davinci_all_defconfig as detailed in last e-mail.

Applied to v4.10/defconfig

Both this cover and patch 5/5 has MINDSTORTMS instead of MINDSTORMS in
a few places (including the subject line).
