freescale imx6 sata code can be modified to use msata interface?

陳冠儒 — Thu, 17 Sep 2015 01:36:36 GMT

Hi,All:

freescale imx6 sata code can be modified to use msata interface?

Because the sata code was written dead. (for linux 3.10.53 BSP)

I want to be able to modify MSATA_DEVSLP, MSATA_PWR_EN signal to someone pin.

Able to do it?

please help me,thanks.

(中譯: freescale imx6 sata code 能修改成msata 介面來用嗎?

因為sata code被寫死了。(針對linux3.10.53 BSP的code)

我想要能夠修改MSATA_DEVSLP, MSATA_PWR_EN信號到某一支pin上。

能夠做到嗎?

)

Assume you mentioned "written dead" is hard coding.

Where it is? What is MSATA_DEVSLP, MSATA_PWR_EN you mentioned in your hardware design?

If they are control by gpio, BSP is source code, you can modify anything you want.

BTW, MSATA_DEVSLP, MSATA_PWR_EN are the signals in the mSATA standard. Or they are just the name in you schematic. please confirm.

mSATA differs from regular SATA only by form factor, so, basically, no driver code modification is required. The MSATA_DEVSLP, MSATA_PWR_EN signals you're talking about are non-standartized ones, so, they can be implemented by using any available GPIO.

Have a great day,
Artur

Hi,Biyong Sun:

yes,

I want to make GPIO to control, but he did not offer the following section control pin design to me, how do I make him self-control action to 0 or 1, for example, I want to MSATA_PWR_EN control to GPIO_16 and low to high signal, how do I do?

Please help me,thanks.

So I just think it wrote dead. (for imx6q.dtsi code)

I want a similar code as follows:

imx6qdl-sabresd.dtsi:

reg_usb_h1_vbus: usb_h1_vbus {

compatible = "regulator-fixed";

regulator-name = "usb_h1_vbus";

regulator-min-microvolt = <5000000>;

regulator-max-microvolt = <5000000>;

gpio = <&gpio3 31 0>; --> Control the way I want,control 0/1

enable-active-high;

};

imx6q.dtsi:

sata: sata@02200000 {

compatible = "fsl,imx6q-ahci";

reg = <0x02200000 0x4000>;

interrupts = <0 39 0x04>;

clocks = <&clks 154>, <&clks 187>, <&clks 105>;

clock-names = "sata", "sata_ref", "ahb";

status = "disabled";

};

MSATA_DEVSLP(or call MSATA_DET), MSATA_PWR_EN is schematic name (cpu to issue).

MSATA_DEVSLP access Pin51 (mSATA interface).

MSATA_PWR_EN access another controller.

Mr Chen,

It is called fixed regulator. "compatible = "regulator-fixed";"

You should have device tree knowledge to read the dts file.

It's got nothing to do with sata. it is power supply.

For the MSATA_PWR_EN

Please follow binding guide Documentation\devicetree\bindings\regulator fixed-regulator.txt, add your gpio regulator.

And gpio regulator is part of linux. i.MX just provide control.

For the MSATA_DEVSLP, you need to consider about tie to PMIC_ON_REQ or PMIC_STBY_REQ depending on your design and your system design.

It is a customization scope, you need to figure out a way in your design.

You need to create a fixed regulator.

Hi,Biyong Sun:

thank u answer.

I tried to do and if i have a problem, ask you again.

thanks!!!
