GPMC (General Purpose Memory Controller):
|
||
|
|
=========================================
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
GPMC is an unified memory controller dedicated to interfacing external
|
||
|
|
memory devices like
|
||
|
|
* Asynchronous SRAM like memories and application specific integrated
|
||
|
|
circuit devices.
|
||
|
|
* Asynchronous, synchronous, and page mode burst NOR flash devices
|
||
|
|
NAND flash
|
||
|
|
* Pseudo-SRAM devices
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
GPMC is found on Texas Instruments SoC's (OMAP based)

GPMC generic timing calculation:
|
||
|
|
================================
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
GPMC has certain timings that has to be programmed for proper
|
||
|
|
functioning of the peripheral, while peripheral has another set of
|
||
|
|
timings. To have peripheral work with gpmc, peripheral timings has to
|
||
|
|
be translated to the form gpmc can understand. The way it has to be
|
||
|
|
translated depends on the connected peripheral. Also there is a
|
||
|
|
dependency for certain gpmc timings on gpmc clock frequency. Hence a
|
||
|
|
generic timing routine was developed to achieve above requirements.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Generic routine provides a generic method to calculate gpmc timings
|
||
|
|
from gpmc peripheral timings. struct gpmc_device_timings fields has to
|
||
|
|
be updated with timings from the datasheet of the peripheral that is
|
||
|
|
connected to gpmc. A few of the peripheral timings can be fed either
|
||
|
|
in time or in cycles, provision to handle this scenario has been
|
||
|
|
provided (refer struct gpmc_device_timings definition). It may so
|
||
|
|
happen that timing as specified by peripheral datasheet is not present
|
||
|
|
in timing structure, in this scenario, try to correlate peripheral
|
||
|
|
timing to the one available. If that doesn't work, try to add a new
|
||
|
|
field as required by peripheral, educate generic timing routine to
|
||
|
|
handle it, make sure that it does not break any of the existing.
|
||
|
|
Then there may be cases where peripheral datasheet doesn't mention
|
||
|
|
certain fields of struct gpmc_device_timings, zero those entries.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Generic timing routine has been verified to work properly on
|
||
|
|
multiple onenand's and tusb6010 peripherals.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
A word of caution: generic timing routine has been developed based
|
||
|
|
on understanding of gpmc timings, peripheral timings, available
|
||
|
|
custom timing routines, a kind of reverse engineering without
|
||
|
|
most of the datasheets & hardware (to be exact none of those supported
|
||
|
|
in mainline having custom timing routine) and by simulation.

Note: Many of gpmc timings are dependent on other gpmc timings (a few
|
||
|
|
gpmc timings purely dependent on other gpmc timings, a reason that
|
||
|
|
some of the gpmc timings are missing above), and it will result in
|
||
|
|
indirect dependency of peripheral timings to gpmc timings other than
|
||
|
|
mentioned above, refer timing routine for more details. To know what
|
||
|
|
these peripheral timings correspond to, please see explanations in
|
||
|
|
struct gpmc_device_timings definition. And for gpmc timings refer

|
