# Remoteproc Design Document
Remoteproc provides abstraction to manage the life cycle of a remote
application. For now, it only provides APIs on bringing up and
tearing down the remote application, and parsing resource table.
It will extend to crash detection, suspend and resume.
## Remoteproc LCM States
| State | State Description |
|:------|:------------------|
| Offline | Initial state of a remoteproc instance. The remote presented by the remoteproc instance and its resource has been powered off. |
| Configured | The remote presented by the remoteproc instance has been configured. And ready to load applicaiton. |
| Ready | The remote presented by the remoteproc instance has applicaiton loaded, and ready to run. |
| Stopped | The remote presented by the remoteproc instance has stopped from running. But the remote is still powered on. And the remote's resource hasn't been released. |

### State Transition
| State Transition | Transition Trigger |
|:-----------------|:-------------------|
| Offline -> Configured | Configure the remote to make it able to load application;<br>`remoteproc_configure(&rproc, &config_data)`|
| Configured -> Ready | load firmware ;<br>`remoteproc_load(&rproc, &path, &image_store, &image_store_ops, &image_info)` |
| Ready -> Running | start the processor; <br>`remoteproc_start(&rproc)` |
| Ready -> Stopped | stop the processor; <br>`remoteproc_stop(&rproc)`; <br>`remoteproc_shutdown(&rproc)`(Stopped is the intermediate state of shutdown operation) |
| Running -> Stopped | stop the processor; <br>`remoteproc_stop(&rproc)`; <br>`remoteproc_shutdown(&rproc)` |
| Stopped -> Offline | shutdown the processor; <br>`remoteproc_shutdown(&rproc)` |
## Remote User APIs
* Initialize remoteproc instance:
```
struct remoteproc *remoteproc_init(struct remoteproc *rproc,
struct remoteproc_ops *ops, void *priv)
```
* Release remoteproc instance:
```
int remoteproc_remove(struct remoteproc *rproc)
```
* Add memory to remoteproc:
```
void remoteproc_add_mem(struct remoteproc *rproc, struct remoteproc_mem *mem)
```
* Get memory libmetal I/O region from remoteproc specifying memory name:
```
struct metal_io_region *remoteproc_get_io_with_name(struct remoteproc *rproc, const char *name)
```
* Get memory libmetal I/O region from remoteproc specifying physical address:
```
struct metal_io_region *remoteproc_get_io_with_pa(struct remoteproc *rproc, metal_phys_addr_t pa);
```
* Get memory libmetal I/O region from remoteproc specifying virtual address:
```
struct metal_io_region *remoteproc_get_io_with_va(struct remoteproc *rproc, void *va);
```
* Map memory and add the memory to the remoteproc instance:
```
void *remoteproc_mmap(struct remoteproc *rproc,
metal_phys_addr_t *pa, metal_phys_addr_t *da,
size_t size, unsigned int attribute,
struct metal_io_region **io);
```
* Set resource table to remoteproc:
```
int remoteproc_set_rsc_table(struct remoteproc *rproc,
struct resource_table *rsc_table,
size_t rsc_size)
```
* Configure the remote presented by the remoteproc instance to make it able
to load applicaiton:
```
int remoteproc_config(struct remoteproc *rproc, void *data)
```
* Load application to the remote presented by the remoteproc instance to make
it ready to run:
```
int remoteproc_load(struct remoteproc *rproc, const char *path,
void *store, struct image_store_ops *store_ops,
void **img_info)
```
* Run application on the remote presented by the remoteproc instance:
```
int remoteproc_start(struct remoteproc *rproc)
```
* Stop application on remote presented by the remoteproc instance:
```
int remoteproc_stop(struct remoteproc *rproc)
```
* Shutdown the remote presented by the remoteproc instance:
```
int remoteproc_shutdown(struct remoteproc *rproc)
```
* Create virtio device from the resource table vdev resource, and add it to the
remoteproc instance:
```
struct virtio_device *remoteproc_create_virtio(struct remoteproc *rproc,
int vdev_id, unsigned int role,
void (*rst_cb)(struct virtio_device *vdev))
```
* Remove virtio device from the remoteproc instance:
```
void remoteproc_remove_virtio(struct remoteproc *rproc,
struct virtio_device *vdev)
```
