-High Speed Synchronous Serial Interface (HSI) is a serial interface
|
|
|
|
-mainly used for connecting application engines (APE) with cellular modem
|
|
|
|
-engines (CMT) in cellular handsets. HSI provides multiplexing for up to
|
|
|
|
-16 logical channels, low-latency and full duplex communication.

+1. Introduction
|
|
|
|
+---------------
|
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
|
+High Speed Syncronous Interface (HSI) is a fullduplex, low latency protocol,
|
|
|
|
+that is optimized for die-level interconnect between an Application Processor
|
|
|
|
+and a Baseband chipset. It has been specified by the MIPI alliance in 2003 and
|
|
|
|
+implemented by multiple vendors since then.
|
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
|
+The HSI interface supports full duplex communication over multiple channels
|
|
|
|
+(typically 8) and is capable of reaching speeds up to 200 Mbit/s.
|
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
|
+The serial protocol uses two signals, DATA and FLAG as combined data and clock
|
|
|
|
+signals and an additional READY signal for flow control. An additional WAKE
|
|
|
|
+signal can be used to wakeup the chips from standby modes. The signals are
|
|
|
|
+commonly prefixed by AC for signals going from the application die to the
|
|
|
|
+cellular die and CA for signals going the other way around.

+2. HSI Subsystem in Linux
|
|
|
|
+-------------------------
|
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
|
+In the Linux kernel the hsi subsystem is supposed to be used for HSI devices.
|
|
|
|
+The hsi subsystem contains drivers for hsi controllers including support for
|
|
|
|
+multi-port controllers and provides a generic API for using the HSI ports.
|
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
|
+It also contains HSI client drivers, which make use of the generic API to
|
|
|
|
+implement a protocol used on the HSI interface. These client drivers can
|
|
|
|
+use an arbitrary number of channels.
|
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
|
+3. hsi-char Device
|
|
|
|
+------------------
|
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
|
+Each port automatically registers a generic client driver called hsi_char,
|
|
|
|
+which provides a charecter device for userspace representing the HSI port.
|
|
|
|
+It can be used to communicate via HSI from userspace. Userspace may
|
|
|
|
+configure the hsi_char device using the following ioctl commands:
|
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
|
+HSC_RESET
|
|
|
|
+ flush the HSI port
|
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
|
+HSC_SET_PM
|
|
|
|
+ enable or disable the client.
