[PATCH RESEND v4 0/8] can: flexcan: Add NXP S32N79 SoC support
Posted by Ciprian Costea 1 month, 3 weeks ago
From: Ciprian Marian Costea <ciprianmarian.costea@oss.nxp.com>

This patch series adds FlexCAN support for the NXP S32N79 SoC.

The S32N79 is an automotive-grade processor from NXP with multiple
FlexCAN instances. The FlexCAN IP integration on S32N79 differs from
other SoCs in the interrupt routing - it uses two separate interrupt
lines:
  - one interrupt for mailboxes 0-127
  - one interrupt for bus error detection and device state changes

The CAN controllers are connected through an irqsteer interrupt
controller in the RCU (Resource Control Unit) domain.

This series:
  1. Splits flexcan_irq() into dedicated handlers for multi-IRQ platforms
  2. Adds dt-bindings documentation for S32N79 FlexCAN
  3. Introduces FLEXCAN_QUIRK_IRQ_BERR to handle the two-interrupt
     configuration
  4. Adds S32N79 device data and compatible string to the driver
  5. Adds FlexCAN device tree nodes for S32N79 SoC
  6. Enables FlexCAN devices on the S32N79-RDB board

Tested on S32N79-RDB board with CAN and CAN FD communication.

This is a resend of v4 with no changes.

v4 -> v3
- flexcan_chip_interrupts_enable(): disable/enable all IRQ lines
  (not just dev->irq) during IMASK register writes
- Split rx/tx masks per mailbox IRQ line (struct flexcan_mb_irq) so
  each handler on S32G2 only processes its own MB range
- Added received Acked-by tag on DT bindings patch

v3 -> v2
- Split flexcan_irq() into dedicated handlers (flexcan_irq_mb,
  flexcan_irq_boff, flexcan_irq_berr) to fix duplicate event
  processing when multiple IRQ lines run concurrently (new patch).
- Added flexcan_irq_esr() handler composing state + berr for S32N79
- Ordered quirks used by s32n devtype data by value.

v2 -> v1
- Renamed FLEXCAN_QUIRK_NR_IRQ_2 to FLEXCAN_QUIRK_IRQ_BERR to better
describe the actual hardware feature
- Appended new quirk at the end
- Switched from platform_get_irq to platform_get_irq_byname usage
- Updated interrupt description in dt-bindings

Hello Marc,

Following up on v4. All comments from v3 have been addressed. Let me
know if there's anything else you'd like changed.

Best Regards,
Ciprian
