This brings watchdog support for the TI K3 SoCs, derived from the Linux kernel, augmented with firmware loading as needed on the AM65x.
Tested on the AM65x EVM and the IOT2050 (also AM65x-based, upstream support will be posted soon).
Changes in v2: - keep watchdog powered when handing over to Linux - drop unneeded explicit power-on - account for RTI firmware locking the power domain
Patch 1 and 3 merged applied.
Thanks. Still taking workable suggestions for loading the firmware.
FIT image is the one that I can think off. Since SPL is loading the FIT image, SPL_HANDOFF can be used to pass on the loadaddr from SPL to U-Boot and U-Boot can start the remote cores using this info.
OK, just the ensure I got the idea correctly:
- extend struct spl_handoff or arch_spl_handoff with the fit image loadaddr that spl is processing
Yes
- stick the watchdog firmware into the u-boot proper fit image (generated by tools/k3_fit_atf.sh or shipped via the board folder, as in our case)
IMHO, not via board folder. k3_fit_atf is used to generate a53 spl images. May be create a new one that packs fit image with u-boot and firmware. Or can you check if binman in u-boot works for you?
- from the watchdog driver, trigger parsing of that fit image and extracting of the firmware from there
Yes
Thanks and regards, Lokesh
