arm: docs: Move Arm documentation to Documentation/arch/

2023-06-12T12:33:40+00:00

Architecture-specific documentation is being moved into Documentation/arch/
as a way of cleaning up the top-level documentation directory and making
the docs hierarchy more closely match the source hierarchy.  Move
Documentation/arm into arch/ (along with the Chinese equvalent
translations).

Pull ARM SoC devicetree updates from Arnd Bergmann:
 "The devicetree changes overall are again dominated by the Qualcomm
  Snapdragon platform that weighs in at over 300 changesets, but there
  are many updates across other platforms as well, notably Mediatek,
  NXP, Rockchips, Renesas, TI, Samsung and ST Microelectronics. These
  all add new features for existing machines, as well as new machines
  and SoCs.

  The newly added SoCs are:

   - Allwinner T113-s, an Cortex-A7 based variant of the RISC-V based D1
     chip.

   - StarFive JH7110, a RISC-V SoC based on the Sifive U74 core like its
     JH7100 predecessor, but with additional CPU cores and a GPU.

   - Apple M2 as used in current Macbook Air/Pro and Mac Mini gets
     added, with comparable support as its M1 predecessor.

   - Unisoc UMS512 (Tiger T610) is a midrange smartphone SoC

   - Qualcomm IPQ5332 and IPQ9574 are Wi-Fi 7 networking SoCs, based on
     the Cortex-A53 and Cortex-A73 cores, respectively.

   - Qualcomm sa8775p is an automotive SoC derived from the Snapdragon
     family.

  Including the initial board support for the added SoC platforms, there
  are 52 new machines. The largest group are 19 boards industrial
  embedded boards based on the NXP i.MX6 (32-bit) and i.MX8 (64-bit)
  families.

  Others include:

   - Two boards based on the Allwinner f1c200s ultra-low-cost chip

   - Three 'Banana Pi' variants based on the Amlogic g12b (A311D, S922X)
     SoC.

   - The Gl.Inet mv1000 router based on Marvell Armada 3720

   - A Wifi/LTE Dongle based on Qualcomm msm8916

   - Two robotics boards based on Qualcomm QRB chips

   - Three Snapdragon based phones made by Xiaomi

   - Five developments boards based on various Rockchip SoCs, including
     the rk3588s-khadas-edge2 and a few NanoPi models

   - The AM625 Beagleplay industrial SBC

  Another 14 machines get removed: both boards for the obsolete 'oxnas'
  platform, three boards for the Renesas r8a77950 SoC that were only for
  pre-production chips, and various chromebook models based on the
  Qualcomm Sc7180 'trogdor' design that were never part of products"

Documentation: arm: remove stih415/stih416 related entries

2023-04-20T23:53:38+00:00

ST's STiH415 and STiH416 platforms support have been removed since
a long time already.  This commit updates the sti related documentation
overview to remove related entries and update the sti part to add
STiH407/STiH410 and STiH418 platforms which are still actively

Merge tag 'efi-next-for-v6.1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/efi/efi

2022-10-09T15:56:54+00:00

Pull EFI updates from Ard Biesheuvel:
 "A bit more going on than usual in the EFI subsystem. The main driver
  for this has been the introduction of the LoonArch architecture last
  cycle, which inspired some cleanup and refactoring of the EFI code.
  Another driver for EFI changes this cycle and in the future is
  confidential compute.

  The LoongArch architecture does not use either struct bootparams or DT
  natively [yet], and so passing information between the EFI stub and
  the core kernel using either of those is undesirable. And in general,
  overloading DT has been a source of issues on arm64, so using DT for
  this on new architectures is a to avoid for the time being (even if we
  might converge on something DT based for non-x86 architectures in the
  future). For this reason, in addition to the patch that enables EFI
  boot for LoongArch, there are a number of refactoring patches applied
  on top of which separate the DT bits from the generic EFI stub bits.
  These changes are on a separate topich branch that has been shared
  with the LoongArch maintainers, who will include it in their pull
  request as well. This is not ideal, but the best way to manage the
  conflicts without stalling LoongArch for another cycle.

  Another development inspired by LoongArch is the newly added support
  for EFI based decompressors. Instead of adding yet another
  arch-specific incarnation of this pattern for LoongArch, we are
  introducing an EFI app based on the existing EFI libstub
  infrastructure that encapulates the decompression code we use on other
  architectures, but in a way that is fully generic. This has been
  developed and tested in collaboration with distro and systemd folks,
  who are eager to start using this for systemd-boot and also for arm64
  secure boot on Fedora. Note that the EFI zimage files this introduces
  can also be decompressed by non-EFI bootloaders if needed, as the
  image header describes the location of the payload inside the image,
  and the type of compression that was used. (Note that Fedora's arm64
  GRUB is buggy [0] so you'll need a recent version or switch to
  systemd-boot in order to use this.)

  Finally, we are adding TPM measurement of the kernel command line
  provided by EFI. There is an oversight in the TCG spec which results
  in a blind spot for command line arguments passed to loaded images,
  which means that either the loader or the stub needs to take the
  measurement. Given the combinatorial explosion I am anticipating when
  it comes to firmware/bootloader stacks and firmware based attestation
  protocols (SEV-SNP, TDX, DICE, DRTM), it is good to set a baseline now
  when it comes to EFI measured boot, which is that the kernel measures
  the initrd and command line. Intermediate loaders can measure
  additional assets if needed, but with the baseline in place, we can
  deploy measured boot in a meaningful way even if you boot into Linux
  straight from the EFI firmware.

  Summary:

   - implement EFI boot support for LoongArch

   - implement generic EFI compressed boot support for arm64, RISC-V and
     LoongArch, none of which implement a decompressor today

   - measure the kernel command line into the TPM if measured boot is in
     effect

   - refactor the EFI stub code in order to isolate DT dependencies for
     architectures other than x86

   - avoid calling SetVirtualAddressMap() on arm64 if the configured
     size of the VA space guarantees that doing so is unnecessary

   - move some ARM specific code out of the generic EFI source files

   - unmap kernel code from the x86 mixed mode 1:1 page tables"

efi: libstub: unify initrd loading between architectures

2022-09-27T11:21:36+00:00

Use a EFI configuration table to pass the initrd to the core kernel,
instead of per-arch methods. This cleans up the code considerably, and
should make it easier for architectures to get rid of their reliance on
DT for doing EFI boot in the future.

docs: arm: stm32: introduce STM32 DMA-MDMA chaining feature

2022-09-04T17:18:02+00:00

STM32 DMA-MDMA chaining feature is available on STM32 SoCs which embed
STM32 DMAMUX, DMA and MDMA controllers. It is the case on STM32MP1 SoCs but
also on STM32H7 SoCs. But focus is on STM32MP1 SoCs, using DDR.
This documentation aims to explain how to use STM32 DMA-MDMA chaining
feature in drivers of STM32 peripheral having request lines on STM32 DMA.
