OpenSBI Platform Support Guideline
|
||
|
|
==================================
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The OpenSBI platform support is a set of platform specific hooks provided
|
||
|
|
in the form of a *struct sbi_platform* instance. It is required by:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
1. *libplatsbi.a* - A platform specific OpenSBI static library, that is,
|
||
|
|
libsbi.a plus a *struct sbi_platform* instance installed at
|
||
|
|
*<install_directory>/platform/<platform_subdir>/lib/libplatsbi.a*
|
||
|
|
2. *firmwares* - Platform specific bootable firmware binaries installed at
|
||
|
|
*<install_directory>/platform/<platform_subdir>/bin*
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
A complete doxygen-style documentation of *struct sbi_platform* and related
|
||
|
|
APIs is available in sbi/sbi_platform.h.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Adding a new platform support
|
||
|
|
-----------------------------
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The support of a new platform named *<xyz>* can be added as follows:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
1. Create a directory named *<xyz>* under *platform/* directory
|
||
|
|
2. Create a platform configuration file named *config.mk* under
|
||
|
|
*platform/<xyz>/* directory. This configuration file will provide
|
||
|
|
compiler flags, select common drivers, and select firmware options
|
||
|
|
3. Create *platform/<xyz>/objects.mk* file for listing the platform
|
||
|
|
specific object files to be compiled
|
||
|
|
4. Create *platform/<xyz>/platform.c* file providing a *struct sbi_platform*
|
||
|
|
instance
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
A template platform support code is available under the *platform/template*.
|
||
|
|
Copying this directory as new directory named *<xyz>* under *platform/*
|
||
|
|
directory will create all the files mentioned above.
