Hello Simon, Bin, all,
I have an Apollo Lake based device, where U-Boot is booted as a Coreboot payload. I would like to utilize the Apollo Lake GPIO driver (drivers/gpio/intel_gpio.c), but I struggle with the dependencies.
For my use case, I face 2 obstacles:
- Some required drivers are not built
The Apollo Lake GPIO driver requires the P2SB and ITSS drivers, but those are located in arch/x86/cpu/apollolake. Drivers in this directory are not included in my build as it builds for Coreboot, not for Apollo Lake.
- Some header files are not found
The header files gpio.h and itss.h are located in arch/x86/include/asm/arch-apollolake, but as I build for Coreboot the symlink arch/x86/include/asm/arch points to arch-coreboot instead of arch-apollolake, so those header files are not found.
Does anyone have recommendations on how to solve those issues? Would it be possible to move the drivers for P2SB and ITSS out of arch/x86/cpu/apollolake to the generic drivers/ directory?
I don't have any great ideas. At present we rely on the device tree to bind these drivers but I suppose we could add the PCI IDs and then the coreboot target could bind them.
I have added the relevant entries in my device tree, the point is that the required drivers are not even built, because they are located in the Apollo Lake directory. This is why I asked wheter we could move them to the generic drivers directory. (This could also make sense IMHO as they are not specific for Apollo Lake, but could be used for mulitple generations of chips)
Yes that sounds OK to me.
Ok, thanks for the feedback. As a first step, I will send a patch series to move the ITSS driver to a more common location within arch/x86.
I've sent out the acpi series, available at u-boot-dm/coral-working
Regards, Simon
