Linux kernel SLIMbus support¶
Overview¶
What is SLIMbus?¶
SLIMbus (Serial Low Power Interchip Media Bus) is a specification developed by MIPI (Mobile Industry Processor Interface) alliance. The bus uses master/slave configuration, and is a 2-wire multi-drop implementation (clock, and data).
Currently, SLIMbus is used to interface between application processors of SoCs (System-on-Chip) and peripheral components (typically codec). SLIMbus uses Time-Division-Multiplexing to accommodate multiple data channels, and a control channel.
The control channel is used for various control functions such as bus management, configuration and status updates. These messages can be unicast (e.g. reading/writing device specific values), or multicast (e.g. data channel reconfiguration sequence is a broadcast message announced to all devices)
A data channel is used for data-transfer between 2 SLIMbus devices. Data channel uses dedicated ports on the device.
Hardware description:¶
SLIMbus specification has different types of device classifications based on their capabilities. A manager device is responsible for enumeration, configuration, and dynamic channel allocation. Every bus has 1 active manager.
A generic device is a device providing application functionality (e.g. codec).
Framer device is responsible for clocking the bus, and transmitting frame-sync and framing information on the bus.
Each SLIMbus component has an interface device for monitoring physical layer.
Typically each SoC contains SLIMbus component having 1 manager, 1 framer device, 1 generic device (for data channel support), and 1 interface device. External peripheral SLIMbus component usually has 1 generic device (for functionality/data channel support), and an associated interface device. The generic device’s registers are mapped as ‘value elements’ so that they can be written/read using SLIMbus control channel exchanging control/status type of information. In case there are multiple framer devices on the same bus, manager device is responsible to select the active-framer for clocking the bus.
Per specification, SLIMbus uses “clock gears” to do power management based on current frequency and bandwidth requirements. There are 10 clock gears and each gear changes the SLIMbus frequency to be twice its previous gear.
Each device has a 6-byte enumeration-address and the manager assigns every device with a 1-byte logical address after the devices report presence on the bus.
Software description:¶
There are 2 types of SLIMbus drivers:
slim_controller represents a ‘controller’ for SLIMbus. This driver should implement duties needed by the SoC (manager device, associated interface device for monitoring the layers and reporting errors, default framer device).
slim_device represents the ‘generic device/component’ for SLIMbus, and a slim_driver should implement driver for that slim_device.
Device notifications to the driver:¶
Since SLIMbus devices have mechanisms for reporting their presence, the framework allows drivers to bind when corresponding devices report their presence on the bus. However, it is possible that the driver needs to be probed first so that it can enable corresponding SLIMbus device (e.g. power it up and/or take it out of reset). To support that behavior, the framework allows drivers to probe first as well (e.g. using standard DeviceTree compatibility field). This creates the necessity for the driver to know when the device is functional (i.e. reported present). device_up callback is used for that reason when the device reports present and is assigned a logical address by the controller.
Similarly, SLIMbus devices ‘report absent’ when they go down. A ‘device_down’ callback notifies the driver when the device reports absent and its logical address assignment is invalidated by the controller.
Another notification “boot_device” is used to notify the slim_driver when controller resets the bus. This notification allows the driver to take necessary steps to boot the device so that it’s functional after the bus has been reset.

‘Manager device’ is responsible for device management, bandwidth allocation, channel setup, and port associations per channel. Device management means Logical address assignment/removal based on enumeration (report-present, report-absent) of a device. Bandwidth allocation is done dynamically by the manager based on active channels on the bus, message-bandwidth requests made by SLIMbus devices. Based on current bandwidth usage, manager chooses a frequency to run the bus at (in steps of ‘clock-gear’, 1 through 10, each clock gear representing twice the frequency than the previous gear). Manager is also responsible for entering (and exiting) low-power-mode (known as ‘clock pause’). Manager can do handover of framer if there are multiple framers on the bus and a certain usecase warrants using certain framer to avoid keeping previous framer being powered-on.
Controller here performs duties of the manager device, and ‘interface device’. Interface device is responsible for monitoring the bus and reporting information such as loss-of-synchronization, data slot-collision.
wakeup
This function pointer implements controller-specific procedure to wake it up from clock-pause. Framework will call this to bring the controller out of clock pause.

Enumeration address of the device.

-
int
slim_get_logical_addr
(struct slim_device *sbdev)¶ get/allocate logical address of a SLIMbus device.
Parameters
struct slim_device *sbdev
client handle requesting the address.
Return
zero if a logical address is valid or a new logical address has been assigned. error code in case of error.
Clock-pause:¶
SLIMbus mandates that a reconfiguration sequence (known as clock-pause) be broadcast to all active devices on the bus before the bus can enter low-power mode. Controller uses this sequence when it decides to enter low-power mode so that corresponding clocks and/or power-rails can be turned off to save power. Clock-pause is exited by waking up framer device (if controller driver initiates exiting low power mode), or by toggling the data line (if a slave device wants to initiate it).
Clock-pause APIs:¶
-
int
slim_ctrl_clk_pause
(struct slim_controller *ctrl, bool wakeup, u8 restart)¶ Called by slimbus controller to enter/exit ‘clock pause’
Parameters
struct slim_controller *ctrl
controller requesting bus to be paused or woken up
bool wakeup
Wakeup this controller from clock pause.
u8 restart
Restart time value per spec used for clock pause. This value isn’t used when controller is to be woken up.
Description
Slimbus specification needs this sequence to turn-off clocks for the bus. The sequence involves sending 3 broadcast messages (reconfiguration sequence) to inform all devices on the bus. To exit clock-pause, controller typically wakes up active framer device. This API executes clock pause reconfiguration sequence if wakeup is false. If wakeup is true, controller’s wakeup is called. For entering clock-pause, -EBUSY is returned if a message txn in pending.
Messaging:¶
The framework supports regmap and read/write apis to exchange control-information with a SLIMbus device. APIs can be synchronous or asynchronous. The header file <linux/slimbus.h> has more documentation about messaging APIs.
