QMSS consist of queue managers, packed-data structure -processors(PDSP), linking RAM, descriptor pools and infrastructure -Packet DMA. -The Queue Manager is a hardware module that is responsible for accelerating -management of the packet queues. Packets are queued/de-queued by writing or -reading descriptor address to a particular memory mapped location. The PDSPs -perform QMSS related functions like accumulation, QoS, or event management. -Linking RAM registers are used to link the descriptors which are stored in -descriptor RAM. Descriptor RAM is configurable as internal or external memory. -The QMSS driver manages the PDSP setups, linking RAM regions, -queue pool management (allocation, push, pop and notify) and descriptor -pool management. - -knav qmss driver provides a set of APIs to drivers to open/close qmss queues, -allocate descriptor pools, map the descriptors, push/pop to queues etc. For -details of the available APIs, please refers to include/linux/soc/ti/knav_qmss.h - -DT documentation is available at -Documentation/devicetree/bindings/soc/ti/keystone-navigator-qmss.txt - -Accumulator QMSS queues using PDSP firmware -============================================ -The QMSS PDSP firmware support accumulator channel that can monitor a single -queue or multiple contiguous queues. drivers/soc/ti/knav_qmss_acc.c is the -driver that interface with the accumulator PDSP. This configures -accumulator channels defined in DTS (example in DT documentation) to monitor -1 or 32 queues per channel. More description on the firmware is available in -CPPI/QMSS Low Level Driver document (docs/CPPI_QMSS_LLD_SDS.pdf) at - git://git.ti.com/keystone-rtos/qmss-lld.git - -k2_qmss_pdsp_acc48_k2_le_1_0_0_9.bin firmware supports upto 48 accumulator -channels. This firmware is available under ti-keystone folder of -firmware.git at - git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/firmware/linux-firmware.git - -To use copy the firmware image to lib/firmware folder of the initramfs or -ubifs file system and provide a sym link to k2_qmss_pdsp_acc48_k2_le_1_0_0_9.bin -in the file system and boot up the kernel. User would see - - "firmware file ks2_qmss_pdsp_acc48.bin downloaded for PDSP" - -in the boot up log if loading of firmware to PDSP is successful. - -Use of accumulated queues requires the firmware image to be present in the -file system. The driver doesn't acc queues to the supported queue range if -PDSP is not running in the SoC. The API call fails if there is a queue open -request to an acc queue and PDSP is not running. So make sure to copy firmware -to file system before using these queue types. |
