[POWERPC] QE: Add ability to upload QE firmware

Define the layout of a binary blob that contains a QE firmware and instructions
on how to upload it.  Add function qe_upload_firmware() to parse the blob
and perform the actual upload.  Fully define 'struct rsp' in immap_qe.h to
include the actual RISC Special Registers.  Added description of a new
QE firmware node to booting-without-of.txt.

viii) Uploaded QE firmware
If a new firwmare has been uploaded to the QE (usually by the
boot loader), then a 'firmware' child node should be added to the QE
node. This node provides information on the uploaded firmware that
device drivers may need.
Required properties:
- id: The string name of the firmware. This is taken from the 'id'
member of the qe_firmware structure of the uploaded firmware.
Device drivers can search this string to determine if the
firmware they want is already present.
- extended-modes: The Extended Modes bitfield, taken from the
firmware binary. It is a 64-bit number represented
as an array of two 32-bit numbers.
- virtual-traps: The virtual traps, taken from the firmware binary.
It is an array of 8 32-bit numbers.
Example:
firmware {
id = "Soft-UART";
extended-modes = <0 0>;
virtual-traps = <0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0>;

Revision Information
====================
November 30, 2007: Rev 1.0 - Initial version
I - Software License for Firmware
=================================
Each firmware file comes with its own software license. For information on
the particular license, please see the license text that is distributed with
the firmware.
II - Microcode Availability
===========================
Firmware files are distributed through various channels. Some are available on
http://opensource.freescale.com. For other firmware files, please contact
your Freescale representative or your operating system vendor.
III - Description and Terminology
================================
In this document, the term 'microcode' refers to the sequence of 32-bit
integers that compose the actual QE microcode.
The term 'firmware' refers to a binary blob that contains the microcode as
well as other data that
1) describes the microcode's purpose
2) describes how and where to upload the microcode
3) specifies the values of various registers
4) includes additional data for use by specific device drivers
Firmware files are binary files that contain only a firmware.
IV - Microcode Programming Details
===================================
The QE architecture allows for only one microcode present in I-RAM for each
RISC processor. To replace any current microcode, a full QE reset (which
disables the microcode) must be performed first.
QE microcode is uploaded using the following procedure:
1) The microcode is placed into I-RAM at a specific location, using the
IRAM.IADD and IRAM.IDATA registers.
2) The CERCR.CIR bit is set to 0 or 1, depending on whether the firmware
needs split I-RAM. Split I-RAM is only meaningful for SOCs that have
QEs with multiple RISC processors, such as the 8360. Splitting the I-RAM
allows each processor to run a different microcode, effectively creating an
asymmetric multiprocessing (AMP) system.
3) The TIBCR trap registers are loaded with the addresses of the trap handlers
in the microcode.
4) The RSP.ECCR register is programmed with the value provided.
5) If necessary, device drivers that need the virtual traps and extended mode
data will use them.
Virtual Microcode Traps
These virtual traps are conditional branches in the microcode. These are
"soft" provisional introduced in the ROMcode in order to enable higher
flexibility and save h/w traps If new features are activated or an issue is
being fixed in the RAM package utilizing they should be activated. This data
structure signals the microcode which of these virtual traps is active.
This structure contains 6 words that the application should copy to some
specific been defined. This table describes the structure.

Extended Modes
This is a double word bit array (64 bits) that defines special functionality
which has an impact on the softwarew drivers. Each bit has its own impact
and has special instructions for the s/w associated with it. This structure is
described in this table:

| 0 | General | Indicates that prior to each host command |
| | push command | given by the application, the software must |
| | | assert a special host command (push command)|
| | | CECDR = 0x00800000. |
| | | CECR = 0x01c1000f. |
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
| 1 | UCC ATM | Indicates that after issuing ATM RX INIT |
| | RX INIT | command, the host must issue another special|
| | push command | command (push command) and immediately |
| | | following that re-issue the ATM RX INIT |
| | | command. (This makes the sequence of |
| | | initializing the ATM receiver a sequence of |
| | | three host commands) |
| | | CECDR = 0x00800000. |
| | | CECR = 0x01c1000f. |
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
| 2 | Add/remove | Indicates that following the specific host |
| | command | command: "Add/Remove entry in Hash Lookup |
| | validation | Table" used in Interworking setup, the user |
| | | must issue another command. |
| | | CECDR = 0xce000003. |
| | | CECR = 0x01c10f58. |
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
| 3 | General push | Indicates that the s/w has to initialize |
| | command | some pointers in the Ethernet thread pages |
| | | which are used when Header Compression is |
| | | activated. The full details of these |
| | | pointers is located in the software drivers.|
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
| 4 | General push | Indicates that after issuing Ethernet TX |
| | command | INIT command, user must issue this command |
| | | for each SNUM of Ethernet TX thread. |
| | | CECDR = 0x00800003. |
| | | CECR = 0x7'b{0}, 8'b{Enet TX thread SNUM}, |

V - Firmware Structure Layout
==============================
QE microcode from Freescale is typically provided as a header file. This
header file contains macros that define the microcode binary itself as well as
some other data used in uploading that microcode. The format of these files
do not lend themselves to simple inclusion into other code. Hence,
the need for a more portable format. This section defines that format.
Instead of distributing a header file, the microcode and related data are
embedded into a binary blob. This blob is passed to the qe_upload_firmware()
function, which parses the blob and performs everything necessary to upload
the microcode.
All integers are big-endian. See the comments for function
qe_upload_firmware() for up-to-date implementation information.
This structure supports versioning, where the version of the structure is
embedded into the structure itself. To ensure forward and backwards
compatibility, all versions of the structure must use the same 'qe_header'
structure at the beginning.
'header' (type: struct qe_header):
The 'length' field is the size, in bytes, of the entire structure,
including all the microcode embedded in it, as well as the CRC (if
present).
The 'magic' field is an array of three bytes that contains the letters
'Q', 'E', and 'F'. This is an identifier that indicates that this
structure is a QE Firmware structure.
The 'version' field is a single byte that indicates the version of this
structure. If the layout of the structure should ever need to be
changed to add support for additional types of microcode, then the
version number should also be changed.
The 'id' field is a null-terminated string(suitable for printing) that
identifies the firmware.
The 'count' field indicates the number of 'microcode' structures. There
must be one and only one 'microcode' structure for each RISC processor.
Therefore, this field also represents the number of RISC processors for this
SOC.
The 'soc' structure contains the SOC numbers and revisions used to match
the microcode to the SOC itself. Normally, the microcode loader should
check the data in this structure with the SOC number and revisions, and
only upload the microcode if there's a match. However, this check is not
made on all platforms.
Although it is not recommended, you can specify '0' in the soc.model
field to skip matching SOCs altogether.
The 'model' field is a 16-bit number that matches the actual SOC. The
'major' and 'minor' fields are the major and minor revision numbrs,
respectively, of the SOC.
For example, to match the 8323, revision 1.0:
soc.model = 8323
soc.major = 1
soc.minor = 0
'padding' is neccessary for structure alignment. This field ensures that the
'extended_modes' field is aligned on a 64-bit boundary.
'extended_modes' is a bitfield that defines special functionality which has an
impact on the device drivers. Each bit has its own impact and has special
instructions for the driver associated with it. This field is stored in
the QE library and available to any driver that calles qe_get_firmware_info().
'vtraps' is an array of 8 words that contain virtual trap values for each
virtual traps. As with 'extended_modes', this field is stored in the QE
library and available to any driver that calles qe_get_firmware_info().
'microcode' (type: struct qe_microcode):
For each RISC processor there is one 'microcode' structure. The first
'microcode' structure is for the first RISC, and so on.
The 'id' field is a null-terminated string suitable for printing that
identifies this particular microcode.
'traps' is an array of 16 words that contain hardware trap values
for each of the 16 traps. If trap[i] is 0, then this particular
trap is to be ignored (i.e. not written to TIBCR[i]). The entire value
is written as-is to the TIBCR[i] register, so be sure to set the EN
and T_IBP bits if necessary.
'eccr' is the value to program into the ECCR register.
'iram_offset' is the offset into IRAM to start writing the
microcode.
'count' is the number of 32-bit words in the microcode.
'code_offset' is the offset, in bytes, from the beginning of this
structure where the microcode itself can be found. The first
microcode binary should be located immediately after the 'microcode'
array.
'major', 'minor', and 'revision' are the major, minor, and revision
version numbers, respectively, of the microcode. If all values are 0,
then these fields are ignored.
'reserved' is necessary for structure alignment. Since 'microcode'
is an array, the 64-bit 'extended_modes' field needs to be aligned
on a 64-bit boundary, and this can only happen if the size of
'microcode' is a multiple of 8 bytes. To ensure that, we add
'reserved'.
After the last microcode is a 32-bit CRC. It can be calculated using
this algorithm:
u32 crc32(const u8 *p, unsigned int len)
{
unsigned int i;
u32 crc = 0;
while (len--) {
crc ^= *p++;
for (i = 0; i < 8; i++)
crc = (crc >> 1) ^ ((crc & 1) ? 0xedb88320 : 0);
}
return crc;
}
