The [https://www.ti.com/lit/pdf/spruf98 OMAP35x Technical Reference Manual] provides information about the SonicsMX® interconnect used in Kermit ES1. Datasheets for some Microchip PIC32 microcontrollers (e.g. [https://www.microchip.com/en-us/solutions/displays/embedded-graphics-solutions/mcu-guided-selection-tool-for-graphics/pic32mz-ef-series PIC32MZ] family) provide information about the SonicsSX® interconnect used in Kermit ES2+. | |||

In the following sections, you may see mentions of register names such as <code>BEBT</code> and <code>SBEBT</code>. Unless otherwise specified, a register prefixed with <code>S</code> is merely the ARM Secure variant of the register e.g. <code>SBEBT</code> is <code>BEBT</code> for ARM Secure. Everything that applies to a register should apply to its Secure variant, except that the register is updated by Secure bus transactions, instead of Non-Secure bus transactions. | In the following sections, you may see mentions of register names such as <code>BEBT</code> and <code>SBEBT</code>.

<code>MReqInfo</code> is 16 bits wide in Kermit. | |||
Bits <6:0> contain the <code>Bus Master ID</code> of initiator. | |||
This is sometimes used for access checks, or to identify transaction initiator when a bus error occurs. | |||
== Interconnect registers == | |||
There are register blocks associated to each interconnect in the system. These blocks are always 1KiB (0x400 bytes), and the registers inside them are always 64-bit. | |||

This page documents Kermit memory system internals.
The OMAP35x Technical Reference Manual provides information about the SonicsMX® interconnect used in Kermit ES1. Datasheets for some Microchip PIC32 microcontrollers (e.g. PIC32MZ family) provide information about the SonicsSX® interconnect used in Kermit ES2+.
Glossary
- SMX
Abbreviation of SonicsMX®.
- SSX
Abbreviation of SonicsSX®.
- Module
Any device connected to the memory system, such as ARM cores, DMA controllers, LPDDR2... Modules can be initiators, targets or both.
- Initiator
A module that can initiate read and write requests to the interconnect (e.g. ARM cores, DMA, ...).
- Target
A module that can only respond to requests from the interconnect. Targets may also be able to generate out-of-band signals such as interrupts.
- Agent
The connection between a module's port and the interconnect. If a module has multiple ports (e.g. an Initiator and Target module), each port is connected to the interconnect by a different agent (e.g. one IA and one TA).
- TA
Short for Target Agent. The agent connecting an Initiator module to the interconnect.
- IA
Short for Initiator Agent. The agent connecting a Target module to the interconnect.
- OCP
Open-core Protocol, a standard point-to-point protocol allowing communication between a master and a slave port.
- OCP Master Port
A port that can generate OCP commands. Initiators always include at least one master port.
- OCP Slave Port
A port that can respond to OCP commands. Targets always include one slave port.
- Interconnect
Logic device enabling connection between initiator and target modules connected to it.
- Out-of-band error
OCP signal associated to a device error-reporting scheme. This is opposed to an in-band error, which is associated to the protocol's error-reporting scheme. Out-of-band errors are also known as sideband errors.
Generalities
The bus fabric of Kermit is made of several SonicsSX® interconnects on which peripherals are connected.
All communication is done using the OCP protocol; however, adapters (e.g., AXI2OCP for Cortex-A9) may be present at Agent level.
There are three revisions of the memory system layout:
- Original layout for Kermit1.0 ES1 - uses the SMX interconnect (as found in BeagleBoard SoC) instead of SSX
- Second revision for Kermit1.0 ES2 - very close to the final revision, uses the SSX interconnect
- Third and final revision for Kermit1.0 ES3 and later
In the following sections, you may see mentions of register names such as BEBT
and SBEBT
. Unless otherwise specified, a register prefixed with S
is merely the ARM Secure variant of the register e.g. SBEBT
is BEBT
for ARM Secure. Everything that applies to a register should apply to its Secure variant, except that the register is updated by Secure bus transactions, instead of Non-Secure bus transactions.
Signals
MReqInfo
MReqInfo
is 16 bits wide in Kermit.
Bits <6:0> contain the Bus Master ID
of initiator.
This is sometimes used for access checks, or to identify transaction initiator when a bus error occurs.
Interconnect registers
There are register blocks associated to each interconnect in the system. These blocks are always 1KiB (0x400 bytes), and the registers inside them are always 64-bit.

Protection Mechanism
Each Target Agent may be equipped with a Firewall (also called Protection Mechanism), which can be used to restrict or filter access to it based on various criteria.

Bus Errors
When a bus error occurs, an interrupt is delivered to ARM Secure (Interrupt ID 0x21=33) or Non-Secure (Interrupt ID 0x20=32). The OS considers all bus errors to be fatal. The interrupt handlers installed for these IDs perform a register dump then stop the system.
It appears that device-initiated bus errors (e.g. DMAC) are always routed to Non-Secure interrupt. There may be other rules to consider (e.g. some register to set whether a device is Secure/Non-Secure).
It is unknown whether or not CMeP can receive bus error interrupts or how CMeP fits in the memory system.
There are two kind of bus errors: Internal Bus error and Target Device error. An Internal Bus error occurs when the memory system fails to deliver a request to a target device - for example, trying to access non-existent memory. A Target Device error occurs when a device successfully receives a request but is unable to handle it - for example, accessing the non-existent part of a device's memory.
Bus Error Attribute
The bus error attribute is a 32-bit value that can be recovered in a per-device MMIO register along with the bus error address.
The attribute holds multiple informations: which agent was the bus master when the error occurred, what bus command was ongoing, and, when available, the reason of the bus error.

Address Hole Error | If set, the error occurred because the address was invalid. |
Sometimes, this register is not present but separated in multiple (e.g., in REGBUS).
Note that for some devices (Spad32K, Spad128K, Compati SRAM), the only valid attribute is 0x1
, indicating an invalid address.

Clear TA error
In old System Software versions (e.g. 0.920 - pre-ES3, so this may no longer be valid), there exists inside the bus error module a function named BusErrorClearTA
which works the following way.
First, choose a bus/XBar that will serve as start point (MainXBar for ES2).
Second, recursively build a list of all TAs connected to this start point. Repeat the process for all TAs that are busses or XBars.
Third, walk the obtained tree. Check the STATUS
of all TAs. If an error is present, repeat the procedure recursively (if bus/XBar) then clear the error.
To detect an error, check if bit 0x01000_0000ull
is present in STATUS
To clear the error, simply write 0x01000_0000ull
to STATUS
.
NOTE: old System Software versions do not have informations about IAs, but only TAs. This could explain the routine's name, but also means this procedure may also work/be needed on IA side.
Miscellaneous
The memory system is able to distinguish if a transaction is originating from ARM Secure state or Non-Secure state because ARM Cortex-A9 processors with Security Extensions have a bit indicating whether the access is Secure or Non-Secure added to all memory system transactions.
Attempting to perform a DMAC memcpy() from Secure to Non-Secure LPDDR0 region results in a NS bus error. The current hypothesis is that all devices on the Kermit bus diagram that have an IA are treated as ARM NS.
