Hello,

This patch series adds drivers for Xilinx Alveo PCIe accelerator cards.
These drivers are part of Xilinx Runtime (XRT) open source stack and
have been deployed by leading FaaS vendors and many enterprise customers.

PLATFORM ARCHITECTURE

Alveo PCIe platforms have a static shell and a reconfigurable (dynamic)
region. The shell is automatically loaded from PROM when host is booted
and PCIe is enumerated by BIOS. Shell cannot be changed till next cold
reboot. The shell exposes two physical functions: management physical
function and user physical function.

Users compile their high level design in C/C++/OpenCL or RTL into FPGA
image using SDx compiler. The FPGA image packaged as xclbin file can be
loaded onto reconfigurable region. The image may contain one or more
compute unit. Users can dynamically swap the full image running on the
reconfigurable region in order to switch between different workloads.

XRT DRIVERS

XRT Linux kernel driver xmgmt binds to mgmt pf. The driver is modular and
organized into several platform drivers which primarily handle the
following functionality:
1. ICAP programming (FPGA bitstream download with FPGA Mgr integration)
2. Clock scaling
3. Loading firmware container also called dsabin (embedded Microblaze
firmware for ERT and XMC, optional clearing bitstream)
4. In-band sensors: temp, voltage, power, etc.
5. AXI Firewall management
6. Device reset and rescan
7. Hardware mailbox for communication between two physical functions

XRT Linux kernel driver xocl binds to user pf. Like its peer, this driver
is also modular and organized into several platform drivers which handle
the following functionality:
1. Device memory topology discovery and memory management
2. Buffer object abstraction and management for client process
3. XDMA MM PCIe DMA engine programming
4. Multi-process aware context management
5. Compute unit execution management (optionally with help of ERT) for
client processes
6. Hardware mailbox for communication between two physical functions

The drivers export ioctls and sysfs nodes for various services. xocl
driver makes heavy use of DRM GEM features for device memory management,
reference counting, mmap support and export/import. xocl also includes a
simple scheduler called KDS which schedules compute units and interacts
with hardware scheduler running ERT firmware. The scheduler understands
custom opcodes packaged into command objects and provides an asynchronous
command done notification via POSIX poll.

More details on architecture, software APIs, ioctl definitions, execution
model, etc. is available as Sphinx documentation--

The complete runtime software stack (XRT) which includes out of tree
kernel drivers, user space libraries, board utilities and firmware for
the hardware scheduler is open source and available at
https://github.com/Xilinx/XRT

Thanks,
