I think you can do some modification to create the S-mode timer driver based on the M-mode driver patch I provided.
I think you missed my point.
CLINT is SiFive specific. You have to rename your driver as clint_timer. The riscv_timer name is in-appropriate.
Yes, I am reconsidering this. Lukas had similar comments, and Rick confirmed that Andes's chip implemented different mtimer/IPI block from SiFive's.
We cannot use CLINT udevice for "rdtime" because:
- SOC can implement "rdtime" in HW
- SOC can implement some MMIO device (like CLINT)
and emulate "rdtime" in runtime firmware.
It looks you misunderstood things. I was not suggesting you use CLINT device for S-mode timer driver at all. I am not sure why you misunderstood it. Please read my comments carefully.
Can you explain how will the timer probed called if there is no matching device in DT?
The timer driver is bound by the CPU driver. See http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/996902/.
Makes sense now. There is no DT based probing. Instead, you are explicitly bind the timer driver.
M-mode U-Boot will never use the generic riscv_timer based on "rdtime" instruction. We will mostly have SoC specific timer drivers for M-mode U-Boot.
Unfortunately yes, M-mode timer driver cannot be generic and that's what bothered me. It should have been architected clearly in the very beginning since the timer is supposed to deliver interrupts directly into [M|S]IP on the hart and allowing platform implementation to me is creating fragmented solutions. If there are other timers available on SoC device, I will definitely use them instead.
I think your CPU driver should only do the explicit device binding if CONFIG_RISCV_SMODE=y.
Yep I haven't figured out a clean way to do the driver binding if there are different mtimer implementations, as the mtimer driver name has to be made known to the CPU driver. But I think the S-mode driver can be generic.
There is inter-dependency here.
My suggestion is, I can include you CPU driver patch and add DM driver for "rdtime" based upon that. Only If you are fine ??
I am fine with that. However there are some review comments that need be addressed in my v1 CPU/timer driver series so this should be fixed at first. Maybe we can just delay the S-mode timer driver support until later, after my series goes in.
