ARM Integrator Info

2011-08-30T22:03:58Z

Linusw: /* Integrator Compact Platform */

== Integrator Compact Platform ==

The Real View® Integrator(TM) AP and CP (Compact Platform) operates in conjunction with a Core Module to provide a fully integrated development platform. The Core Module FPGA implements a set of ARM PrimeCell® Peripherals and memory controllers. The PrimeCell Peripherals make use of the drivers and connectors on the Compact Platform baseboard; these include LCD and touch screen connectors, VGA connector, Multi-Media Card (MMC) interface and an audio codec interface. Ethernet connectivity is provided by a dedicated interface chip. Expansion to Logic Modules and Logic Tiles is through an AMBA AHB-Lite system bus.

* The Integrator/AP is a basic board with two UART ports, timer, RTC and NOR Flash
* The Integrator/CP can be extended to support user created IP, using standard Integrator Logic Tiles, in conjunction with an IM-LT1 Interface, or using Logic Modules.

Integrator/CP is compatible with the following Integrator Core Modules: ARM920T, ARM922T-XA10, ARM926EJ-S, ARM946E-S and ARM966E-S, ARM1026EJ-S and ARM1136J(F)-S. See the following link [http://www.arm.com/products/DevTools/IntegratorCP.html Integrator Core Modules] for a more complete description of the board and processors.

The Integrator platforms are no longer officially supported by ARM Ltd.

== Boot Loader ==
[http://sourceforge.net/projects/u-boot/ U-boot] contains support for this board. To compile U-Boot from CVS sources you can use the following commands:
<pre>
*make integratorcp_config
*make
</pre>
The resulting executable can then be loaded on the board using a debugger to be run from the bootMonitor. The following page [http://www.arm.com/linux/prebuilt_download.html Prebuilt downloads] contains some information on compiling and running Linux for this board.

ARM RealView

2010-05-14T00:54:17Z

Linusw: add versatile link

ARM Ltd. RealView is a blanket name for development packages from ARM including for example the "RealView Developer Suite" (RVDS) which includes a compiler. However to most developers the RealView is synonymous with an evaluation board which has it's machine set-up available in the kernel ''arch/arm/mach-realview''.

The RealView siblings are:

* ''mach-integrator'' [[ARM Integrator]] also named "RealView Integrator" boards are the oldest and support ARM7, ARM9 and ARM10 CPUs
* ''mach-versatile'' [[ARM Versatile]] also named "RealView Versatile" is middle-age and supports a family of ARM9 CPUs
* ''mach-realview'' '''ARM RealView''' - the machine configurations named simply RealView are the newest ones supporting ARM11 and Cortex A8/A9 (CPUv6,CPUv7) CPUs, the product name for these is actually also "RealView Versatile" but traditionally have their own entry in the kernel tree

These all have own machine entries in the ARM arch kernel tree.

All these boards come in a black square box with PCI card slots, and support using PCI peripherals and e.g. a PS2 keyboard and mouse so they can more or less be used as desktop computers if so desired.

However RealView boards are quite expensive and few people can afford them, while they are still the preferred choice for companies wanting to work with the very latest ARM cores.

Android Kernel Features

2010-05-03T15:57:57Z

Linusw: /* Binder */

== List of Kernel features unique to Android ==

=== Important update ===
See [http://www.kroah.com/log/linux/staging-status-12-2009.html Greg KH blog post on -staging for 2.6.33], where he announces to '''remove''' various Android drivers from -staging.

=== Binder ===
* Binder - corba-like IPC
** Originally a feature in BeOS, Binder was a central construct for encapsulating software interfaces. One of the architects behind this mechanism was Dianne Hackborn, who is now a key employee at Android/Google. For more history see [http://www.osnews.com/story/13674/Introduction_to_OpenBinder_and_Interview_with_Dianne_Hackborn this interview].
** used instead of SysV IPC for interprocess communication
** The Linux version of Binder was originally derived from a project by PalmSource to implement a CORBA-like message-passing or method invocation system. Documentation on that system is at: http://www.angryredplanet.com/~hackbod/openbinder/docs/html/index.html
** implementation is at: <tt>drivers/android/binder.c</tt>, with include file: <tt>include/linux/binder.h</tt>

=== ashmem ===
* ashmem - Android shared memory
** implementation is in <tt>mm/ashmem.c</tt>

According to the Kconfig help "The ashmem subsystem is a new shared memory allocator,
similar to POSIX SHM but with different behavior and sporting a simpler file-based API."

Apparently it better-supports low memory devices, because it can discard
shared memory units under memory pressure.

To use this, programs open /dev/ashmem, use mmap() on it, and can perform one
or more of the following ioctls:

* ASHMEM_SET_NAME
* ASHMEM_GET_NAME
* ASHMEM_SET_SIZE
* ASHMEM_GET_SIZE
* ASHMEM_SET_PROT_MASK
* ASHMEM_GET_PROT_MASK
* ASHMEM_PIN
* ASHMEM_UNPIN
* ASHMEM_GET_PIN_STATUS
* ASHMEM_PURGE_ALL_CACHES

=== pmem ===
* PMEM - Process memory allocator
** implementation at: <tt>drivers/misc/pmem.c</tt> with include file at: <tt>include/linux/android_pmem.h</tt>
** Brian Swetland says:
<pre>
The pmem driver is used to manage large (1-16+MB) physically contiguous
regions of memory shared between userspace and kernel drivers (dsp, gpu,
etc). It was written specifically to deal with hardware limitations of
the MSM7201A, but could be used for other chipsets as well. For now,
you're safe to turn it off on x86.
</pre>

=== logger ===
* logger - system logging facility
** This is the kernel support for the 'logcat' command
** The kernel driver for the serial devices for logging are in the source code drivers/android/logging.c
** See [[Android logger]] for more information

=== wakelocks ===
* wakelock - used for power management
** Holds machine awake on a per-event basis until wakelock is released
** See [[Android Power Management]] for detailed information

=== oom handling ===
* oom handling modifications
** lowmem notifications
** implementation at: <tt>drivers/misc/lowmemorykiller.c</tt>
** also at: <tt>security/lowmem.c</tt>
** [Need a description of this here]

=== alarm ===
* alarm

=== paranoid network security===
* paranoid network security
** See [[Android_Security#Paranoid_network-ing]]

=== timed gpio ===
Generic gpio is a mechanism to allow programs to access and manipulate gpio registers from user space.

"Timed gpio" appears to be a system to allow for similar gpio manipulation, but with an added capability
to automatically set a value in a gpio after a specified timeout.

On my ADP1, there is a driver at:

I'm not sure who uses this, or how it is used, but this is a directory with the following items:
<pre>
# cd /sys/bus/platform/drivers/timed-gpio
# ls -l
--w------- 1 0 0 4096 Nov 13 02:11 bind
lrwxrwxrwx 1 0 0 0 Nov 13 02:11 timed-gpio -> ../../../../devices/platform/timed-gpio
--w------- 1 0 0 4096 Nov 13 02:11 uevent
--w------- 1 0 0 4096 Nov 13 02:11 unbind
</pre>

Also, there is a device at:
<pre>
# cd /sys/devices/platform/timed-gpio
# ls -lR
.:
lrwxrwxrwx 1 0 0 0 Nov 13 01:34 driver -> ../../../bus/platform/drivers/timed-gpio
-r--r--r-- 1 0 0 4096 Nov 13 01:34 modalias
drwxr-xr-x 2 0 0 0 Nov 13 01:34 power
lrwxrwxrwx 1 0 0 0 Nov 13 01:34 subsystem -> ../../../bus/platform
-rw-r--r-- 1 0 0 4096 Nov 13 01:34 uevent

./power:
-rw-r--r-- 1 0 0 4096 Nov 13 01:34 wakeup
</pre>

Possibly this means that one of the GPIO pins on the ADP1 is tied to a power wakeup event???

=== other kernel changes ===
Here is a miscellaneous list of other kernel changes in the mistral Android kernel:
* switch events - drivers/switch/*
* USB gadget driver for ADB - drivers/usb/gadget/android.c
* yaffs2 flash filesystem
* support in FAT filesystem for FVAT_IOCTL_GET_VOLUME_ID
* RAM console
* and more...

== Kernel configuration options ==
The file [http://android.git.kernel.org/?p=kernel/common.git;a=blob_plain;f=Documentation/android.txt;hb=HEAD Documentation/android.txt] has a list of required configuration options for a kernel to support
an Android system.

== Resources ==
* Peter McDermott's excellent description of his work to port Android to the Nokia N810.
** See http://www.linuxfordevices.com/c/a/Linux-For-Devices-Articles/Porting-Android-to-a-new-device/
** Also, see his annotated list of modified and added kernel files, at: http://www.linuxfordevices.com/files/misc/porting-android-to-a-new-device-p3.html

* Jollen Chen's excellent presentation on system-level Android features, including an overview of kernel features unique to Android: ''Note: Parts of the presentation are in Chinese''
** http://www.slideshare.net/jollen/android-os-porting-introduction

* Greg KH blogged on -staging for 2.6.33, where he announces to '''remove''' various Android drivers from -staging.

However RealView boards are quite expensive and few people can afford them, while they are still the preferred choice for companies wanting to work with the very latest ARM cores.

Android Kernel Download

2010-04-13T03:48:53Z

Linusw: /* 'Raw' Android kernel patches */

== Main Google Android Kernels ==
The main Google repository with Android source code is at: http://android.git.kernel.org/

There are (as of September 2009) 4 main separate kernel repositories at that site:
* common
* experimental
* msm
* omap

To download one of these and use it directly, you can use git.
For example:
git clone git://android.git.kernel.org/kernel/common.git kernel

To preserve your sanity, it's probably worth downloading this into a 'kernel' directory
in your overall Android source directory scheme

To add one of these to your overall Android repository scheme, you add the appropriate kernel repository
to your local_manifest.xml file. (???)

Note that when you download the rest of the Android source code, using the 'repo'
command, you do NOT automatically get a kernel tree included. (That is, a kernel
git tree is not referenced in the default Android manifest file, when you use
repo following the instructions at http://source.android.com/download

For more about repo, see http://source.android.com/download/using-repo

== Other Repositories with Android-specific changes ==
* Linux kernel for omap and beagle-board, by Embinux: http://labs.embinux.org/git/cgit.cgi/repo/kernel.git
** clone with: git clone git://labs.embinux.org/repo/kernel.git kernel

== 'Raw' Android kernel patches ==
I do not know of any freely available patches for the Linux kernel with the Android
fixes, as of November 2009. I have, however, heard of multiple efforts to extract
the patches to make it easier to port the Android kernel features onto newer Linux
kernels.

Here is a way of extracting raw Android patches at a certain point in time, though
this may be dated:

<pre>
git clone git://android.git.kernel.org/kernel/common.git android-kernel
cd android-kernel
git checkout --track -b android-2.6.32 origin/android-2.6.32
git fetch --tags git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux-2.6.32.y.git
git shortlog v2.6.32.9..HEAD
git format-patch v2.6.32.9..HEAD
</pre>

Sum total 173 patches for the 2.6.32.9 kernel as of writing.

If anyone knows where raw android kernel patches are available, please add a link
here. See also the [[Android Kernel Features]] page for more information about
individual kernel features.

Android Kernel Download

Linusw: /* 'Raw' Android kernel patches */

== Main Google Android Kernels ==
The main Google repository with Android source code is at: http://android.git.kernel.org/

There are (as of September 2009) 4 main separate kernel repositories at that site:
* common
* experimental
* msm
* omap

To download one of these and use it directly, you can use git.
For example:
git clone git://android.git.kernel.org/kernel/common.git kernel

To preserve your sanity, it's probably worth downloading this into a 'kernel' directory
in your overall Android source directory scheme

To add one of these to your overall Android repository scheme, you add the appropriate kernel repository
to your local_manifest.xml file. (???)

Note that when you download the rest of the Android source code, using the 'repo'
command, you do NOT automatically get a kernel tree included. (That is, a kernel
git tree is not referenced in the default Android manifest file, when you use
repo following the instructions at http://source.android.com/download

For more about repo, see http://source.android.com/download/using-repo

== Other Repositories with Android-specific changes ==
* Linux kernel for omap and beagle-board, by Embinux: http://labs.embinux.org/git/cgit.cgi/repo/kernel.git
** clone with: git clone git://labs.embinux.org/repo/kernel.git kernel

== 'Raw' Android kernel patches ==
I do not know of any freely available patches for the Linux kernel with the Android
fixes, as of November 2009. I have, however, heard of multiple efforts to extract
the patches to make it easier to port the Android kernel features onto newer Linux
kernels.

Here is a way of extracting raw Android patches at a certain point in time, though
this may be dated:

<pre>
git clone git://android.git.kernel.org/kernel/common.git android-kernel
cd android-kernel
git checkout --track -b android-2.6.32 origin/android-2.6.32
git fetch --tags git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux-2.6.32.y.git
git shortlog v2.6.32.9..HEAD
</pre>

Sum total 166 patches.
