this article write down the steps when help customer bring dual camera under single mipi csi with NXP switch NX3DV642, just for a reference, connect OV5640 + os08a20 with mipi csi0 via ISP, as default, mipi csi0 just has one port with one camera, this document improve how to enable os08a20 with second port under mipi csi0, refer to the document and patch as attachment, for how to enable ov5640 with ISP, pls refer to my another document

Platform i.MX8MPlus EVK, Android 13 Background Customer find we have enabled all configs about pstore and ramoops, but they can't get ramoops log in /sys/fs/pstore node on Android 13. Solution The default reboot will reset all hardware including the DDR control, so this will result in the loss of the log stored in RAM. We have include such codes in ATF, the default code will use imx_wdog_restart(true) to reset all hardware. void __dead2 imx_system_reset(void) { #ifdef IMX_WDOG_B_RESET imx_wdog_restart(true); #else imx_wdog_restart(false); #endif }   To avoid DDR reset, we should comment  IMX_WDOG_B_RESET in vendor/nxp-opensource/arm-trusted-firmware/plat/imx/imx8m/imx8mp/include/platform_def.h   Result evk_8mp:/sys/fs/pstore # ls console-ramoops-0 dmesg-ramoops-0 pmsg-ramoops-0

This article is to show how to use CLK2 for PCIe ref clock for i.MX8MQ. Test Environment  i.MX8MQ + BSP L5.10.52 Background In order to cost down, some customers used CLK2 as PCIe reference clock as below while no external OSC installed, which is different with i.MX8MQ EVK design, so no clock output for PCIe.  Checked L4.14.98_2.3.0 and found it added internal PLL for PCIe clock support. Solution The attached patch based on 4.14.98 can’t be used directly on 5.10.52, the following is the main modification for PLLOUT of PCIe clock. PLLOUT Monitor Configuration Register contains bits to control the clock that will be generated on the CCM clock mapped to CLK2_P/N.        

On behalf of Gopise Yuan. This is a debugging patch for adding support for showing interrupt status (same as ‘cat /proc/interrupts’) in Sysrq. Can be triggered by “y”. Might be useful for debugging some hang/stuck issue. Note: Only for debugging purpose. Triggering it in normal case may throttle current cpu and cause IPC/RCU abnormal due to long printing to console.

Usually, device tree source files are not a signal pure dts file. It could include dtsi, dts or C code heads .h files. Need C compiler finish the pre-compile to a pure dts file first. It is integrated inside the like Linux build system(Makefile, etc.). This document shows the original way to compile device tree. This document will show compile device tree under windows.

The IOMUX module on i.MX 8M enables flexible I/O multiplexing, allowing users to configure each IO pad as one of selectable functions. The CSU (Central Security Unit) module on i.MX 8M can be used to configure some devices as secure only accessible to protect the security of these devices. But as the IOMUX is Non-Secure accessilbe and thus the pad function can be configured dynamicaly, there is one risk if hackers reconfigure the IO pad to make the device connected to other controller which is accessible to Non-Secure world. One solution for this issue is configuring the CSU to limit Non-Secure access to IOMUX, all IOMUX registers write operations are routed to Trusty OS. In the Trusty OS, add all sensitive IO resources to one blacklist, the IOMUX driver in Trusty OS should check and deny any write attemption to sensitive registers from Non-Secure world. One example patch set is attached to show how to assign the IOMUX to secure world and how to route the IOMUX write operations to Trusty OS. In this example, the USB Host pinctrl PAD on i.MX8MP EVK was assigned to secure world. The layout of the example codes are:     . ├── atf │ └── 0001-config-iomux-to-secure-write.patch --> ${MY_ANDROID}/vendor/nxp-opensource/arm-trusted-firmware ├── kernel │ └── 0001-Use-Trusty-OS-to-handle-iomux-registers-written-oper.patch --> ${MY_ANDROID}/vendor/nxp-opensource/kernel_imx/ ├── trusty │ └── 0001-Add-iomux-pinctrl-TEE-handler.patch --> ${MY_TRUSTY}/trusty/hardware/nxp └── u-boot └── 0001-Use-Trusty-OS-to-handle-IOMUX-operation.patch --> ${MY_ANDROID}/vendor/nxp-opensource/uboot-imx

This is a summary for the software lockup issue found in the following platform: −i.MX8/8X −Linux 4.14.98_2.3.3   Issue description: •Issue happens during the boot procedure, at the systemd stage. •The symptom of the issue: −From user perspective, the symptom varies, but mainly fall into several types: §At the console, there may be login prompt, but no response (only echo) when input user/password. Unable to login. §Some user service in systemd failed to start. E.g. weston. −When checking the task status using sysrq (w/t), many tasks, including some kernel core tasks stays in “D” (uninterruptable sleep) state. E.g. agetty, login, chvt, etc. •Kernel itself is still alive. This can be verified by triggering some drivers, such as plugin a USB device. Issue can be reproduced on MEK through long time stress.   Please refer to the doc/patch attached for details.
