Jens Scharsig425de622010-02-03 22:45:42 +01001 New C structure AT91 SoC access
2=================================
3
4The goal
5--------
6
7Currently the at91 arch uses hundreds of address defines and special
8at91_xxxx_write/read functions to access the SOC.
9The u-boot project perferred method is to access memory mapped hw
10regisister via a c structure.

12e.g. old
13
14 *AT91C_PIOA_IDR = AT91_PMX_AA_TWD | AT91_PMX_AA_TWCK;
15 *AT91C_PIOC_PUDR = AT91_PMX_AA_TWD | AT91_PMX_AA_TWCK;
16 *AT91C_PIOC_PER = AT91_PMX_AA_TWD | AT91_PMX_AA_TWCK;
17 *AT91C_PIOC_OER = AT91_PMX_AA_TWD | AT91_PMX_AA_TWCK;
18 *AT91C_PIOC_PIO = AT91_PMX_AA_TWD | AT91_PMX_AA_TWCK;

20 at91_sys_write(AT91_RSTC_CR,
21 AT91_RSTC_KEY | AT91_RSTC_PROCRST | AT91_RSTC_PERRST);
22
23e.g new
24 pin = AT91_PMX_AA_TWD | AT91_PMX_AA_TWCK;
25 writel(pin, &pio->pioa.idr);
26 writel(pin, &pio->pioa.pudr);
27 writel(pin, &pio->pioa.per);
28 writel(pin, &pio->pioa.oer);
29 writel(pin, &pio->pioa.sodr);
30
31 writel(AT91_RSTC_KEY | AT91_RSTC_CR_PROCRST |
32 AT91_RSTC_CR_PERRST, &rstc->cr);

34The method for updating
35------------------------
36
371. add's the temporary CONFIG_AT91_LEGACY to all at91 board configs
382. Display a compile time warning, if the board has not been converted
393. add new structures for SoC access
404. Convert arch, driver and boards file to new SoC
415. remove legacy code, if all boards and drives are ready
