If mpic + version is 4.3, the number of MSI registers is increased to 16, MSIIR1 is + provided to access these 16 registers, and compatible "fsl,mpic-msi-v4.3" + should be used. The first entry is optional; the second entry is + required. + +- reg : It may contain one or two regions. The first region should contain + the address and the length of the shared message interrupt register set. + The second region should contain the address of aliased MSIIR or MSIIR1 + register for platforms that have such an alias, if using MSIIR1, the second + region must be added because different MSI group has different MSIIR1 offset. + +- interrupts : each one of the interrupts here is one entry per 32 MSIs, + and routed to the host interrupt controller. the interrupts should + be set as edge sensitive. If msi-available-ranges is present, only + the interrupts that correspond to available ranges shall be present. + +Optional properties: +- msi-available-ranges: use <start count> style section to define which + msi interrupt can be used in the 256 msi interrupts. This property is + optional, without this, all the MSI interrupts can be used. + Each available range must begin and end on a multiple of 32 (i.e. + no splitting an individual MSI register or the associated PIC interrupt). + MPIC v4.3 does not support this property because the 32 interrupts of an + individual register are not continuous when using MSIIR1. + +- msi-address-64: 64-bit PCI address of the MSIIR register. The MSIIR register + is used for MSI messaging. The address of MSIIR in PCI address space is + the MSI message address. + + This property may be used in virtualized environments where the hypervisor + has created an alternate mapping for the MSIR block.

The +Freescale MSI driver calculates the address of MSIIR (in the MSI register +block) and sets that address as the MSI message address. + +In a virtualized environment, the hypervisor may need to create an IOMMU +mapping for MSIIR. The Freescale ePAPR hypervisor has this requirement +because of hardware limitations of the Peripheral Access Management Unit +(PAMU), which is currently the only IOMMU that the hypervisor supports. +The ATMU is programmed with the guest physical address, and the PAMU +intercepts transactions and reroutes them to the true physical address. + +In the PAMU, each PCI controller is given only one primary window. The +PAMU restricts DMA operations so that they can only occur within a window. +Because PCI devices must be able to DMA to memory, the primary window must +be used to cover all of the guest's memory space. + +PAMU primary windows can be divided into 256 subwindows, and each +subwindow can have its own address mapping ("guest physical" to "true +physical"). However, each subwindow has to have the same alignment, which +means they cannot be located at just any address. Because of these +restrictions, it is usually impossible to create a 4KB subwindow that +covers MSIIR where it's normally located. + +Therefore, the hypervisor has to create a subwindow inside the same +primary window used for memory, but mapped to the MSIR block (where MSIIR +lives). The first subwindow after the end of guest memory is used for +this. The address specified in the msi-address-64 property is the PCI +address of MSIIR. The hypervisor configures the PAMU to map that address to +the true physical address of MSIIR. |
