[RFC,v2,1/1] fpga-region: Add generic IOCTL interface for runtime FPGA programming

Commit Message

Manne, Nava kishore Oct. 29, 2024, 9:17 a.m. UTC

Introduces an IOCTL interface within the fpga-region subsystem,
providing a generic and standardized mechanism for configuring (or)
reprogramming FPGAs during runtime. The newly added interface supports
both OF (Open Firmware) and non-OF devices, leveraging vendor-specific
callbacks (e.g., configuration + enumeration, removal, and status) to
accommodate a wide range of device specific configurations.

The IOCTL interface ensures compatibility with both OF and non-OF
devices, allowing for seamless FPGA reprogramming across diverse
platforms.

Vendor-specific callbacks are integrated into the interface, enabling
custom FPGA configuration + enumeration, removal, and status reporting
mechanisms, ensuring flexibility for vendor implementations.

This solution enhances FPGA runtime management, supporting various device
types and vendors, while ensuring compatibility with the current FPGA
configuration flow.

Changes for v2:
 - As discussed with Yilun, the implementation has been modified to utilize a
 callback approach, enabling seamless handling of both OF and non-OF devices.

 - As suggested by Yilun in the POC code, we have moved away from using  void *args
 as a parameter for ICOTL inputs to obtain the required user inputs. Instead, we are
 utilizing the fpga_region_config_info structure to gather user inputs. Currently,
 this structure is implemented to support only OF devices, but we intend to extend
 it by incorporating new members to accommodate non-OF devices in the future.

Could you help specify what is PL?

My current concern is still about this combined API, it just offloads
all work to low level, but we have some common flows. That's why we
introduce a common FPGA reprograming API.

I didn't see issue about the vendor specific pre configuration. They
are generally needed to initialize the struct fpga_image_info, which
is a common structure for fpga_region_program_fpga().

For port IDs(AFU) inputs for DFL, I think it could also be changed
(Don't have to be implemented in this patchset). Previously DFL
provides an uAPI for the whole device, so it needs a port_id input to
position which fpga_region within the device for programming. But now,
we are introducing a per fpga_region programming interface, IIUC port_id
should not be needed anymore.

The combined API is truly simple for leveraging the existing
of-fpga-region overlay apply mechanism. But IMHO that flow doesn't fit
our new uAPI well. That flow is to adapt the generic configfs overlay
interface, which comes to a dead end as you mentioned.

My gut feeling for the generic programing flow should be:

 1. Program the image to HW.
 2. Enumerate the programmed image (apply the DT overlay)

Why we have to:

 1. Start enumeration.
 2. On pre enumeration, programe the image.
 3. Real enumeration.

Thanks,
Yilun
