It is used to connect a device +to the physical medium e.g., the USB controller has a PHY to provide functions +such as serialization, de-serialization, encoding, decoding and is responsible +for obtaining the required data transmission rate. Note that some USB +controllers have PHY functionality embedded into it and others use an external +PHY. Other peripherals that use PHY include Wireless LAN, Ethernet, +SATA etc. + +The intention of creating this framework is to bring the PHY drivers spread +all over the Linux kernel to drivers/phy to increase code re-use and for +better code maintainability. + +This framework will be of use only to devices that use external PHY (PHY +functionality is not embedded within the controller). + +Registering/Unregistering the PHY provider +========================================== + +PHY provider refers to an entity that implements one or more PHY instances. +For the simple case where the PHY provider implements only a single instance of +the PHY, the framework provides its own implementation of of_xlate in +of_phy_simple_xlate. If the PHY provider implements multiple instances, it +should provide its own implementation of of_xlate. of_xlate is used only for +dt boot case. + +:: + + #define of_phy_provider_register(dev, xlate) \ + __of_phy_provider_register((dev), NULL, THIS_MODULE, (xlate)) + + #define devm_of_phy_provider_register(dev, xlate) \ + __devm_of_phy_provider_register((dev), NULL, THIS_MODULE, + (xlate)) + +of_phy_provider_register and devm_of_phy_provider_register macros can be used to +register the phy_provider and it takes device and of_xlate as +arguments. For the dt boot case, all PHY providers should use one of the above +2 macros to register the PHY provider. + +Often the device tree nodes associated with a PHY provider will contain a set +of children that each represent a single PHY. Some bindings may nest the child +nodes within extra levels for context and extensibility, in which case the low +level of_phy_provider_register_full() and devm_of_phy_provider_register_full() +macros can be used to override the node containing the children. + +:: + + #define of_phy_provider_register_full(dev, children, xlate) \ + __of_phy_provider_register(dev, children, THIS_MODULE, xlate) + + #define devm_of_phy_provider_register_full(dev, children, xlate) \ + __devm_of_phy_provider_register_full(dev, children, + THIS_MODULE, xlate) + + void devm_of_phy_provider_unregister(struct device *dev, + struct phy_provider *phy_provider); + void of_phy_provider_unregister(struct phy_provider *phy_provider); + +devm_of_phy_provider_unregister and of_phy_provider_unregister can be used to +unregister the PHY. + +Creating the PHY +================ + +The PHY driver should create the PHY in order for other peripheral controllers +to make use of it. The PHY framework provides 2 APIs to create the PHY. + +:: + + struct phy *phy_create(struct device *dev, struct device_node *node, + const struct phy_ops *ops); + struct phy *devm_phy_create(struct device *dev, + struct device_node *node, + const struct phy_ops *ops); + +The PHY drivers can use one of the above 2 APIs to create the PHY by passing +the device pointer and phy ops. +phy_ops is a set of function pointers for performing PHY operations such as +init, exit, power_on and power_off. + +Inorder to dereference the private data (in phy_ops), the phy provider driver +can use phy_set_drvdata() after creating the PHY and use phy_get_drvdata() in +phy_ops to get back the private data. + +4. Getting a reference to the PHY + +Before the controller can make use of the PHY, it has to get a reference to +it. This framework provides the following APIs to get a reference to the PHY. + +:: + + struct phy *phy_get(struct device *dev, const char *string); + struct phy *phy_optional_get(struct device *dev, const char *string); + struct phy *devm_phy_get(struct device *dev, const char *string); + struct phy *devm_phy_optional_get(struct device *dev, + const char *string); + struct phy *devm_of_phy_get_by_index(struct device *dev, + struct device_node *np, + int index); + +phy_get, phy_optional_get, devm_phy_get and devm_phy_optional_get can +be used to get the PHY. In the case of dt boot, the string arguments +should contain the phy name as given in the dt data and in the case of +non-dt boot, it should contain the label of the PHY. The two +devm_phy_get associates the device with the PHY using devres on +successful PHY get. On driver detach, release function is invoked on +the devres data and devres data is freed. phy_optional_get and +devm_phy_optional_get should be used when the phy is optional. These +two functions will never return -ENODEV, but instead returns NULL when +the phy cannot be found.Some generic drivers, such as ehci, may use multiple +phys and for such drivers referencing phy(s) by name(s) does not make sense. In +this case, devm_of_phy_get_by_index can be used to get a phy reference based on +the index. + +It should be noted that NULL is a valid phy reference. All phy +consumer calls on the NULL phy become NOPs. That is the release calls, +the phy_init() and phy_exit() calls, and phy_power_on() and +phy_power_off() calls are all NOP when applied to a NULL phy. The NULL +phy is useful in devices for handling optional phy devices. + +Releasing a reference to the PHY +================================ + +When the controller no longer needs the PHY, it has to release the reference +to the PHY it has obtained using the APIs mentioned in the above section. The +PHY framework provides 2 APIs to release a reference to the PHY. + +:: + + void phy_put(struct phy *phy); + void devm_phy_put(struct device *dev, struct phy *phy); + +Both these APIs are used to release a reference to the PHY and devm_phy_put +destroys the devres associated with this PHY. + +Destroying the PHY +================== + +When the driver that created the PHY is unloaded, it should destroy the PHY it +created using one of the following 2 APIs:: + + void phy_destroy(struct phy *phy); + void devm_phy_destroy(struct device *dev, struct phy *phy); + +Both these APIs destroy the PHY and devm_phy_destroy destroys the devres +associated with this PHY. + +PM Runtime +========== + +This subsystem is pm runtime enabled. So while creating the PHY, +pm_runtime_enable of the phy device created by this subsystem is called and +while destroying the PHY, pm_runtime_disable is called. Note that the phy +device created by this subsystem will be a child of the device that calls +phy_create (PHY provider device). + +So pm_runtime_get_sync of the phy_device created by this subsystem will invoke +pm_runtime_get_sync of PHY provider device because of parent-child relationship. +It should also be noted that phy_power_on and phy_power_off performs +phy_pm_runtime_get_sync and phy_pm_runtime_put respectively. +There are exported APIs like phy_pm_runtime_get, phy_pm_runtime_get_sync, +phy_pm_runtime_put, phy_pm_runtime_put_sync, phy_pm_runtime_allow and +phy_pm_runtime_forbid for performing PM operations. + +PHY Mappings +============ + +In order to get reference to a PHY without help from DeviceTree, the framework +offers lookups which can be compared to clkdev that allow clk structures to be +bound to devices. A lookup can be made be made during runtime when a handle to +the struct phy already exists. + +The framework offers the following API for registering and unregistering the +lookups:: + + int phy_create_lookup(struct phy *phy, const char *con_id, + const char *dev_id); + void phy_remove_lookup(struct phy *phy, const char *con_id, + const char *dev_id); + +DeviceTree Binding +================== + +The documentation for PHY dt binding can be found @ +Documentation/devicetree/bindings/phy/phy-bindings.txt diff --git a/Documentation/driver-api/phy/samsung-usb2.rst b/Documentation/driver-api/phy/samsung-usb2.rst new file mode 100644 index 000000000000..c48c8b9797b9 --- /dev/null +++ b/Documentation/driver-api/phy/samsung-usb2.rst @@ -0,0 +1,137 @@ +==================================== +Samsung USB 2.0 PHY adaptation layer +==================================== + +1. Description +-------------- + +The architecture of the USB 2.0 PHY module in Samsung SoCs is similar +among many SoCs. In spite of the similarities it proved difficult to +create a one driver that would fit all these PHY controllers. Often +the differences were minor and were found in particular bits of the +registers of the PHY. In some rare cases the order of register writes or +the PHY powering up process had to be altered. This adaptation layer is +a compromise between having separate drivers and having a single driver +with added support for many special cases. + +2. Files description +-------------------- + +- phy-samsung-usb2.c + This is the main file of the adaptation layer. This file contains + the probe function and provides two callbacks to the Generic PHY + Framework. This two callbacks are used to power on and power off the + phy. They carry out the common work that has to be done on all version + of the PHY module. Depending on which SoC was chosen they execute SoC + specific callbacks. The specific SoC version is selected by choosing + the appropriate compatible string. In addition, this file contains + struct of_device_id definitions for particular SoCs. + +- phy-samsung-usb2.h + This is the include file. It declares the structures used by this + driver. In addition it should contain extern declarations for + structures that describe particular SoCs. + +3. Supporting SoCs +------------------ + +To support a new SoC a new file should be added to the drivers/phy +directory. Each SoC's configuration is stored in an instance of the +struct samsung_usb2_phy_config:: + + struct samsung_usb2_phy_config { + const struct samsung_usb2_common_phy *phys; + int (*rate_to_clk)(unsigned long, u32 *); + unsigned int num_phys; + bool has_mode_switch; + }; + +The num_phys is the number of phys handled by the driver. `*phys` is an +array that contains the configuration for each phy. The has_mode_switch +property is a boolean flag that determines whether the SoC has USB host +and device on a single pair of pins. If so, a special register has to +be modified to change the internal routing of these pins between a USB +device or host module. + +For example the configuration for Exynos 4210 is following:: + + const struct samsung_usb2_phy_config exynos4210_usb2_phy_config = { + .has_mode_switch = 0, + .num_phys = EXYNOS4210_NUM_PHYS, + .phys = exynos4210_phys, + .rate_to_clk = exynos4210_rate_to_clk, + } + +- `int (*rate_to_clk)(unsigned long, u32 *)` + + The rate_to_clk callback is to convert the rate of the clock + used as the reference clock for the PHY module to the value + that should be written in the hardware register. + +The exynos4210_phys configuration array is as follows:: + + static const struct samsung_usb2_common_phy exynos4210_phys[] = { + { + .label = "device", + .id = EXYNOS4210_DEVICE, + .power_on = exynos4210_power_on, + .power_off = exynos4210_power_off, + }, + { + .label = "host", + .id = EXYNOS4210_HOST, + .power_on = exynos4210_power_on, + .power_off = exynos4210_power_off, + }, + { + .label = "hsic0", + .id = EXYNOS4210_HSIC0, + .power_on = exynos4210_power_on, + .power_off = exynos4210_power_off, + }, + { + .label = "hsic1", + .id = EXYNOS4210_HSIC1, + .power_on = exynos4210_power_on, + .power_off = exynos4210_power_off, + }, + {}, + }; + +- `int (*power_on)(struct samsung_usb2_phy_instance *);` + `int (*power_off)(struct samsung_usb2_phy_instance *);` + + These two callbacks are used to power on and power off the phy + by modifying appropriate registers. + +Final change to the driver is adding appropriate compatible value to the +phy-samsung-usb2.c file. In case of Exynos 4210 the following lines were +added to the struct of_device_id samsung_usb2_phy_of_match[] array:: + + #ifdef CONFIG_PHY_EXYNOS4210_USB2 + { + .compatible = "samsung,exynos4210-usb2-phy", + .data = &exynos4210_usb2_phy_config, + }, + #endif + +To add further flexibility to the driver the Kconfig file enables to +include support for selected SoCs in the compiled driver. The Kconfig +entry for Exynos 4210 is following:: + + config PHY_EXYNOS4210_USB2 + bool "Support for Exynos 4210" + depends on PHY_SAMSUNG_USB2 + depends on CPU_EXYNOS4210 + help + Enable USB PHY support for Exynos 4210.
