kandi X-RAY | opensbi Summary

opensbi is a C library. opensbi has no bugs, it has no vulnerabilities and it has low support. However opensbi has a Non-SPDX License. You can download it from GitHub.

The RISC-V Supervisor Binary Interface (SBI) is the recommended interface between:. The RISC-V SBI specification is maintained as an independent project by the RISC-V Foundation on [Github]. The goal of the OpenSBI project is to provide an open-source reference implementation of the RISC-V SBI specifications for platform-specific firmwares executing in M-mode (case 1 mentioned above). An OpenSBI implementation can be easily extended by RISC-V platform and system-on-chip vendors to fit a particular hardware configuration. The main component of OpenSBI is provided in the form of a platform-independent static library libsbi.a implementing the SBI interface. A firmware or bootloader implementation can link against this library to ensure conformance with the SBI interface specifications. libsbi.a also defines an interface for integrating with platform-specific operations provided by the platform firmware implementation (e.g. console access functions, inter-processor interrupt control, etc). To illustrate the use of the libsbi.a library, OpenSBI also provides a set of platform-specific support examples. For each example, a platform-specific static library libplatsbi.a can be compiled. This library implements SBI call processing by integrating libsbi.a with the necessary platform-dependent hardware manipulation functions. For all supported platforms, OpenSBI also provides several runtime firmware examples built using the platform libplatsbi.a. These example firmwares can be used to replace the legacy riscv-pk bootloader (aka BBL) and enable the use of well-known bootloaders such as [U-Boot].

            Support

            Currently, OpenSBI fully supports SBI specification v0.2. OpenSBI also supports Hart State Management (HSM) SBI extension starting from OpenSBI v0.7. HSM extension allows S-mode software to boot all the harts a defined order rather than legacy method of random booting of harts. As a result, many required features such as CPU hotplug, kexec/kdump can also be supported easily in S-mode. HSM extension in OpenSBI is implemented in a non-backward compatible manner to reduce the maintenance burden and avoid confusion. That’s why, any S-mode software using OpenSBI will not be able to boot more than 1 hart if HSM extension is not supported in S-mode. Linux kernel already supports SBI v0.2 and HSM SBI extension starting from v5.7-rc1. If you are using an Linux kernel older than 5.7-rc1 or any other S-mode software without HSM SBI extension, you should stick to OpenSBI v0.6 to boot all the harts. For a UMP systems, it doesn’t matter. N.B. Any S-mode boot loader (i.e. U-Boot) doesn’t need to support HSM extension, as it doesn’t need to boot all the harts. The operating system should be capable enough to bring up all other non-booting harts using HSM extension.
