2 MFP Configuration for PXA2xx/PXA3xx Processors

7 MFP stands for Multi-Function Pin, which is the pin-mux logic on PXA3xx and
8 later PXA series processors. This document describes the existing MFP API,
9 and how board/platform driver authors could make use of it.
14 Unlike the GPIO alternate function settings on PXA25x and PXA27x, a new MFP
15 mechanism is introduced from PXA3xx to completely move the pin-mux functions
16 out of the GPIO controller. In addition to pin-mux configurations, the MFP
17 also controls the low power state, driving strength, pull-up/down and event
18 detection of each pin. Below is a diagram of internal connections between
19 the MFP logic and the remaining SoC peripherals::
27 +--------+ +------>| |
28 | PWM2 |--(PWM_OUT)-------->| MFP |
29 +--------+ +------>| |-------> to external PAD
31 +--------+ | | +-->| |
32 | SSP2 |---(TXD)----+ | | +---------+
36 | Keypad |--(MKOUT4)----+ |
40 | UART2 |---(TXD)--------+
43 NOTE: the external pad is named as MFP_PIN_GPIO19, it doesn't necessarily
44 mean it's dedicated for GPIO19, only as a hint that internally this pin
45 can be routed from GPIO19 of the GPIO controller.
47 To better understand the change from PXA25x/PXA27x GPIO alternate function
48 to this new MFP mechanism, here are several key points:
50 1. GPIO controller on PXA3xx is now a dedicated controller, same as other
51 internal controllers like PWM, SSP and UART, with 128 internal signals
52 which can be routed to external through one or more MFPs (e.g. GPIO<0>
53 can be routed through either MFP_PIN_GPIO0 as well as MFP_PIN_GPIO0_2,
54 see arch/arm/mach-pxa/mfp-pxa300.h)
56 2. Alternate function configuration is removed from this GPIO controller,
57 the remaining functions are pure GPIO-specific, i.e.
59 - GPIO signal level control
60 - GPIO direction control
61 - GPIO level change detection
63 3. Low power state for each pin is now controlled by MFP, this means the
64 PGSRx registers on PXA2xx are now useless on PXA3xx
66 4. Wakeup detection is now controlled by MFP, PWER does not control the
67 wakeup from GPIO(s) any more, depending on the sleeping state, ADxER
68 (as defined in pxa3xx-regs.h) controls the wakeup from MFP
70 NOTE: with such a clear separation of MFP and GPIO, by GPIO<xx> we normally
71 mean it is a GPIO signal, and by MFP<xxx> or pin xxx, we mean a physical
77 For board code writers, here are some guidelines:
79 1. include ONE of the following header files in your <board>.c:
81 - #include "mfp-pxa25x.h"
82 - #include "mfp-pxa27x.h"
83 - #include "mfp-pxa300.h"
84 - #include "mfp-pxa320.h"
85 - #include "mfp-pxa930.h"
87 NOTE: only one file in your <board>.c, depending on the processors used,
88 because pin configuration definitions may conflict in these file (i.e.
89 same name, different meaning and settings on different processors). E.g.
90 for zylonite platform, which support both PXA300/PXA310 and PXA320, two
91 separate files are introduced: zylonite_pxa300.c and zylonite_pxa320.c
92 (in addition to handle MFP configuration differences, they also handle
93 the other differences between the two combinations).
95 NOTE: PXA300 and PXA310 are almost identical in pin configurations (with
96 PXA310 supporting some additional ones), thus the difference is actually
97 covered in a single mfp-pxa300.h.
99 2. prepare an array for the initial pin configurations, e.g.::
101 static unsigned long mainstone_pin_config[] __initdata = {
105 /* LCD - 16bpp Active TFT */
106 GPIOxx_TFT_LCD_16BPP,
107 GPIO16_PWM0_OUT, /* Backlight */
120 GPIO1_GPIO | WAKEUP_ON_EDGE_BOTH,
123 a) once the pin configurations are passed to pxa{2xx,3xx}_mfp_config(),
124 and written to the actual registers, they are useless and may discard,
125 adding '__initdata' will help save some additional bytes here.
127 b) when there is only one possible pin configurations for a component,
128 some simplified definitions can be used, e.g. GPIOxx_TFT_LCD_16BPP on
129 PXA25x and PXA27x processors
131 c) if by board design, a pin can be configured to wake up the system
132 from low power state, it can be 'OR'ed with any of:
137 WAKEUP_ON_LEVEL_HIGH - specifically for enabling of keypad GPIOs,
139 to indicate that this pin has the capability of wake-up the system,
140 and on which edge(s). This, however, doesn't necessarily mean the
141 pin _will_ wakeup the system, it will only when set_irq_wake() is
142 invoked with the corresponding GPIO IRQ (GPIO_IRQ(xx) or gpio_to_irq())
143 and eventually calls gpio_set_wake() for the actual register setting.
145 d) although PXA3xx MFP supports edge detection on each pin, the
146 internal logic will only wakeup the system when those specific bits
147 in ADxER registers are set, which can be well mapped to the
148 corresponding peripheral, thus set_irq_wake() can be called with
149 the peripheral IRQ to enable the wakeup.
155 Every external I/O pad on PXA3xx (excluding those for special purpose) has
156 one MFP logic associated, and is controlled by one MFP register (MFPR).
158 The MFPR has the following bit definitions (for PXA300/PXA310/PXA320)::
160 31 16 15 14 13 12 11 10 9 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 0
161 +-------------------------+--+--+--+--+--+--+--+--+--+--+--+--+--+--+--+--+
162 | RESERVED |PS|PU|PD| DRIVE |SS|SD|SO|EC|EF|ER|--| AF_SEL |
163 +-------------------------+--+--+--+--+--+--+--+--+--+--+--+--+--+--+--+--+
166 Bit 4: EDGE_RISE_EN - enable detection of rising edge on this pin
167 Bit 5: EDGE_FALL_EN - enable detection of falling edge on this pin
168 Bit 6: EDGE_CLEAR - disable edge detection on this pin
169 Bit 7: SLEEP_OE_N - enable outputs during low power modes
170 Bit 8: SLEEP_DATA - output data on the pin during low power modes
171 Bit 9: SLEEP_SEL - selection control for low power modes signals
172 Bit 13: PULLDOWN_EN - enable the internal pull-down resistor on this pin
173 Bit 14: PULLUP_EN - enable the internal pull-up resistor on this pin
174 Bit 15: PULL_SEL - pull state controlled by selected alternate function
175 (0) or by PULL{UP,DOWN}_EN bits (1)
177 Bit 0 - 2: AF_SEL - alternate function selection, 8 possibilities, from 0-7
178 Bit 10-12: DRIVE - drive strength and slew rate
188 MFP Design for PXA2xx/PXA3xx
189 ============================
191 Due to the difference of pin-mux handling between PXA2xx and PXA3xx, a unified
192 MFP API is introduced to cover both series of processors.
194 The basic idea of this design is to introduce definitions for all possible pin
195 configurations, these definitions are processor and platform independent, and
196 the actual API invoked to convert these definitions into register settings and
197 make them effective there-after.
202 - arch/arm/mach-pxa/include/mach/mfp.h
205 1. Unified pin definitions - enum constants for all configurable pins
206 2. processor-neutral bit definitions for a possible MFP configuration
208 - arch/arm/mach-pxa/mfp-pxa3xx.h
210 for PXA3xx specific MFPR register bit definitions and PXA3xx common pin
213 - arch/arm/mach-pxa/mfp-pxa2xx.h
215 for PXA2xx specific definitions and PXA25x/PXA27x common pin configurations
217 - arch/arm/mach-pxa/mfp-pxa25x.h
218 arch/arm/mach-pxa/mfp-pxa27x.h
219 arch/arm/mach-pxa/mfp-pxa300.h
220 arch/arm/mach-pxa/mfp-pxa320.h
221 arch/arm/mach-pxa/mfp-pxa930.h
223 for processor specific definitions
225 - arch/arm/mach-pxa/mfp-pxa3xx.c
226 - arch/arm/mach-pxa/mfp-pxa2xx.c
228 for implementation of the pin configuration to take effect for the actual
234 The following comments are copied from mfp.h (see the actual source code
235 for most updated info)::
238 * a possible MFP configuration is represented by a 32-bit integer
240 * bit 0.. 9 - MFP Pin Number (1024 Pins Maximum)
241 * bit 10..12 - Alternate Function Selection
242 * bit 13..15 - Drive Strength
243 * bit 16..18 - Low Power Mode State
244 * bit 19..20 - Low Power Mode Edge Detection
245 * bit 21..22 - Run Mode Pull State
247 * to facilitate the definition, the following macros are provided
249 * MFP_CFG_DEFAULT - default MFP configuration value, with
250 * alternate function = 0,
251 * drive strength = fast 3mA (MFP_DS03X)
252 * low power mode = default
253 * edge detection = none
255 * MFP_CFG - default MFPR value with alternate function
256 * MFP_CFG_DRV - default MFPR value with alternate function and
258 * MFP_CFG_LPM - default MFPR value with alternate function and
260 * MFP_CFG_X - default MFPR value with alternate function,
261 * pin drive strength and low power mode
264 Examples of pin configurations are::
266 #define GPIO94_SSP3_RXD MFP_CFG_X(GPIO94, AF1, DS08X, FLOAT)
268 which reads GPIO94 can be configured as SSP3_RXD, with alternate function
269 selection of 1, driving strength of 0b101, and a float state in low power
272 NOTE: this is the default setting of this pin being configured as SSP3_RXD
273 which can be modified a bit in board code, though it is not recommended to
274 do so, simply because this default setting is usually carefully encoded,
275 and is supposed to work in most cases.
280 Register settings on PXA3xx for a pin configuration is actually very
281 straight-forward, most bits can be converted directly into MFPR value
282 in a easier way. Two sets of MFPR values are calculated: the run-time
283 ones and the low power mode ones, to allow different settings.
285 The conversion from a generic pin configuration to the actual register
286 settings on PXA2xx is a bit complicated: many registers are involved,
287 including GAFRx, GPDRx, PGSRx, PWER, PKWR, PFER and PRER. Please see
288 mfp-pxa2xx.c for how the conversion is made.
