habanalabs: move driver to accel subsystem

2023-01-26T09:52:10Z

Now that we have a subsystem for compute accelerators, move the habanalabs driver to it. This patch only moves the files and fixes the Makefiles. Future patches will change the existing code to register to the accel subsystem and expose the accel device char files instead of the habanalabs device char files. Update the MAINTAINERS file to reflect this change. Signed-off-by: Oded Gabbay

drivers: misc: Add Support for TMR Inject IP

2023-01-20T12:10:15Z

The Triple Modular Redundancy(TMR) provides functional fault injection by changing selected MicroBlaze instructions, which provides the possibility to verify that the TMR subsystem error detection and fault recovery logic is working properly.

drivers: misc: Add Support for TMR Manager

2023-01-20T12:09:30Z

Triple Modular Redundancy(TMR) subsystem contains three microblaze cores, subsystem is fault-tolerant and continues to operate nominally after encountering an error. Together with the capability to detect and recover from errors, the implementation ensures the reliability of the entire subsystem. TMR Manager is responsible for performing recovery of the subsystem detects the fault via a break signal it invokes microblaze software break handler which calls the tmr manager driver api to update the error count and status, added support for fault detection feature via sysfs interface. Usage: To know the break handler count(Error count): cat /sys/devices/platform/amba_pl/44a10000.tmr_manager/errcnt Signed-off-by: Appana Durga Kedareswara rao Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20221125054113.122833-3-appana.durga.kedareswara.rao@amd.com Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

misc: microchip: pci1xxxx: load auxiliary bus driver for the PIO function in the multi-function endpoint of pci1xxxx device.

2022-09-02T12:49:05Z

pci1xxxx is a PCIe switch with a multi-function endpoint on one of its downstream ports. PIO function is one of the functions in the multi-function endpoint. PIO function combines a GPIO controller and also an interface to program pci1xxxx's OTP & EEPROM. This auxiliary bus driver is loaded for the PIO function and separate child devices are enumerated for GPIO controller and OTP/EEPROM interface.

misc: Add a mechanism to detect stalls on guest vCPUs

2022-07-14T14:54:17Z

This driver creates per-cpu hrtimers which are required to do the periodic 'pet' operation. On a conventional watchdog-core driver, the userspace is responsible for delivering the 'pet' events by writing to the particular /dev/watchdogN node. In this case we require a strong thread affinity to be able to account for lost time on a per vCPU. This part of the driver is the 'frontend' which is reponsible for delivering the periodic 'pet' events, configuring the virtual peripheral and listening for cpu hotplug events. The other part of the driver is an emulated MMIO device which is part of the KVM virtual machine monitor and this part accounts for lost time by looking at the /proc/{}/task/{}/stat entries.

misc: fastrpc: Add support to secure memory map

2022-03-18T13:11:00Z

This patch adds support to secure memory allocations for DSP. It repurposes the reserved field in struct fastrpc_invoke_args to add attributes to invoke request, for example to setup a secure memory map for dsp. Secure memory is assigned to DSP Virtual Machine IDs using Qualcomm SCM calls.

misc: open-dice: Add driver to expose DICE data to userspace

2022-02-04T15:45:39Z

Open Profile for DICE is an open protocol for measured boot compatible with the Trusted Computing Group's Device Identifier Composition Engine (DICE) specification. The generated Compound Device Identifier (CDI) certificates represent the hardware/software combination measured by DICE, and can be used for remote attestation and sealing. Add a driver that exposes reserved memory regions populated by firmware with DICE CDIs and exposes them to userspace via a character device. Userspace obtains the memory region's size from read() and calls mmap() to create a mapping of the memory region in its address space. The mapping is not allowed to be write+shared, giving userspace a guarantee that the data were not overwritten by another process. Userspace can also call write(), which triggers a wipe of the DICE data by the driver. Because both the kernel and userspace mappings use write-combine semantics, all clients observe the memory as zeroed after the syscall has returned.
