Documentation: split devicetree driver hookup into separate page
Move the devicetree driver example into a separate page under the
drivers category, and link to it from both the devicetree page and
the drivers index page. This makes more sense from a grouping
perspective and makes the info easier to find.

The ACPI -generation routines in coreboot actually generate the raw bytecode that -represents the device's structure, but looking at ASL code is easier to -understand; see below for what the disassembled bytecode looks like: - -``` -Scope (\_SB.PCI0.I2C0) -{ - Device (D015) - { - Name (_HID, "ELAN0000") // _HID: Hardware ID - Name (_UID, Zero) // _UID: Unique ID - Name (_DDN, "ELAN Touchpad") // _DDN: DOS Device Name - Method (_STA, 0, NotSerialized) // _STA: Status - { - Return (0x0F) - } - Name (_CRS, ResourceTemplate () // _CRS: Current Resource Settings - { - I2cSerialBusV2 (0x0015, ControllerInitiated, 400000, - AddressingMode7Bit, "\\_SB.PCI0.I2C0", - 0x00, ResourceConsumer, , Exclusive, ) - Interrupt (ResourceConsumer, Level, ActiveLow, ExclusiveAndWake, ,, ) - { - 0x0000002D, - } - }) - Name (_S0W, ACPI_DEVICE_SLEEP_D3_HOT) // _S0W: S0 Device Wake State - Name (_PRW, Package (0x02) // _PRW: Power Resources for Wake - { - 0x15, // GPE #21 - 0x03 // Sleep state S3 - }) - } -} -``` - -You can see it generates _HID, _UID, _DDN, _STA, _CRS, _S0W, and _PRW -names/methods in the Device's scope. - -## Utilizing a device driver - -The device driver must be enabled for your build. There will be a CONFIG option -in the Kconfig file in the directory that the driver is in (e.g., -``src/drivers/i2c/generic`` contains a Kconfig file; the option here is named -CONFIG_DRIVERS_I2C_GENERIC). The config option will need to be added to your -mainboard's Kconfig file (e.g., ``src/mainboard/google/hatch/Kconfig``) in order -to be compiled into your build. - -## Diving into the above example: - -Let's take a look at how the devicetree language corresponds to the generated -ASL. - -First, note this: - -``` - chip drivers/i2c/generic -``` - -This means that the device driver we're using has a corresponding structure, -located at ``src/drivers/i2c/generic/chip.h``, named **struct -drivers_i2c_generic_config** and it contains many properties you can specify to -be included in the ACPI table. - -### hid - -``` - register "hid" = ""ELAN0000"" -``` - -This corresponds to **const char *hid** in the struct. In the ACPI ASL, it -translates to: - -``` - Name (_HID, "ELAN0000") // _HID: Hardware ID -``` - -under the device. **This property is used to match the device to its driver -during enumeration in the OS.** - -### desc - -``` - register "desc" = ""ELAN Touchpad"" -``` - -corresponds to **const char *desc** and in ASL: - -``` - Name (_DDN, "ELAN Touchpad") // _DDN: DOS Device Name -``` - -### irq - -It also adds the interrupt, - -``` - Interrupt (ResourceConsumer, Level, ActiveLow, ExclusiveAndWake, ,, ) - { - 0x0000002D, - } -``` - -which comes from: - -``` - register "irq" = "ACPI_IRQ_WAKE_LEVEL_LOW(GPP_A21_IRQ)" -``` - -The GPIO pin IRQ settings control the "Level", "ActiveLow", and -"ExclusiveAndWake" settings seen above (level means it is a level-triggered -interrupt as opposed to edge-triggered; active low means the interrupt is -triggered when the signal is low). - -Note that the ACPI_IRQ_WAKE_LEVEL_LOW macro informs the platform that the GPIO -will be routed through SCI (ACPI's System Control Interrupt) for use as a wake -source. Also note that the IRQ names are SoC-specific, and you will need to -find the names in your SoC's header file. The ACPI_* macros are defined in -``src/arch/x86/include/acpi/acpi_device.h``. - -Using a GPIO as an IRQ requires that it is configured in coreboot correctly. -This is often done in a mainboard-specific file named ``gpio.c``. - -### wake - -The last register is: - -``` - register "wake" = "GPE0_DW0_21" -``` - -which indicates that the method of waking the system using the touchpad will be -through a GPE, #21 associated with DW0, which is set up in devicetree.cb from -this example. The "21" indicates GPP_X21, where GPP_X is mapped onto DW0 -elsewhere in the devicetree. - -The last bit of the definition of that device includes: - -``` - device i2c 15 on end -``` - -which means it's an I2C device, with 7-bit address 0x15, and the device is "on", -meaning it will be exposed in the ACPI table. The PCI device that the -controller is located in determines which I2C bus the device is expected to be -found on. In this example, this is I2C bus 0. This also determines the ACPI -"Scope" that the device names and methods will live under, in this case -"\_SB.PCI0.I2C0". - -## Other auto-generated names - -(see [ACPI specification -6.3](https://uefi.org/sites/default/files/resources/ACPI_6_3_final_Jan30.pdf) -for more details on ACPI methods) - -### _S0W (S0 Device Wake State) -_S0W indicates the deepest S0 sleep state this device can wake itself from, -which in this case is ACPI_DEVICE_SLEEP_D3_HOT, representing _D3hot_. - -### _PRW (Power Resources for Wake) -_PRW indicates the power resources and events required for wake. There are no -dependent power resources, but the GPE (GPE0_DW0_21) is mentioned here (0x15), -as well as the deepest sleep state supporting waking the system (3), which is -S3. - -### _STA (Status) -The _STA method is generated automatically, and its values, 0xF, indicates the -following: - - Bit [0] – Set if the device is present. - Bit [1] – Set if the device is enabled and decoding its resources. - Bit [2] – Set if the device should be shown in the UI. - Bit [3] – Set if the device is functioning properly (cleared if device failed its diagnostics). - -### _CRS (Current resource settings) -The _CRS method is generated automatically, as the driver knows it is an I2C -controller, and so specifies how to configure the controller for proper -operation with the touchpad. - -``` -Name (_CRS, ResourceTemplate () // _CRS: Current Resource Settings -{ - I2cSerialBusV2 (0x0015, ControllerInitiated, 400000, - AddressingMode7Bit, "\\_SB.PCI0.I2C0", - 0x00, ResourceConsumer, , Exclusive, ) -``` +Platform independent device drivers are hooked up via entries in a devicetree. +See [Driver Devicetree Entries](drivers/dt_entries.md) for more info. ## Notes - **All fields that are left unspecified in the devicetree are initialized to zero.** - - **All devices in devicetrees end up in the SSDT table, and are generated in - coreboot's ramstage** |
