Implement basic AST2400 timer functionality: Timers can be configured,
enabled, reset and disabled.

A number of hardware features are not implemented:

* Timer Overflow interrupts
* Clock value matching
* Pulse generation

The implementation is enough to boot the Linux kernel configured with
aspeed_defconfig.

Thanks; this mostly looks in reasonable shape; I have some comments below.

Do we have a datasheet for this chip ?

All source files need to #include "qemu/osdep.h" as their first
include. That then means you don't need to include assert.h or
stdio.h yourself.

What do we need from qemu/main-loop.h?

Surely the timer doesn't assert its IRQ line all
the time it's enabled? This doesn't look like the right condition.

Is this enabled bit really separate state within the h/w from
the bit in the control register? Storing the same state twice
in different places in the qemu device state struct is usually
a bad idea if you can avoid it.

This is effectively processing the bits in order from
low to high (and doing the loop-through-bits in a confusing
to read way as well). That doesn't seem right to me --
if the guest does one write to say "enable timer with this clock"
then you want to first pick the right clock and then enable
the timer, not enable the timer first and then change the
frequency. (Conversely if the guest writes to disable the timer
you want to disable it first and then reconfigure it.)

You should call this aspeed_init_one_timer() or something,
because with this function name it looks like it ought to
be the instance_init function for the class.

Stray 's' in function name.

Reset of register values should go in your device's reset
function (which you need to implement and register as dc->reset).

You should implement a VMState struct for device migration,
and wire it up here via dc->vmsd.

Usual convention is to omit the ';' on type_init() etc, though as usual
there is some code in the tree that doesn't do so.

Unfortunately I don't know of a publicly available datasheet. What's the best way to proceed in this case?

I'm using it for qemu_bh_new() which is required by ptimer, who registers the aspeed_timer_tick() callback into the main loop timer handling. I think this callback has a poorly chosen name - it's probably better called aspeed_timer_expire(), which I'll fix. ptimer seemed like a logical choice for implementing the functionality to me, so main-loop.h is required?

So I think this is correct despite how it looks. There's some cruft from modelling the implementation off of another timer that's probably obscuring things, which should be fixed. aspeed_timer_irq_update() is only called from aspeed_timer_tick(), so I'll just merge the two. Then by renaming aspeed_timer_tick() to aspeed_timer_expire() as mentioned above, this won't look so strange? I've read through the timer handling code (the processing loop in timerlist_run_timers()) and my understanding is it has the behaviour we want - callback on expiry, not on ticks - which is not how it reads as above.

I didn't like it either, and it likely is redundant as you point out. I was more concentrating on why ptimer didn't seem to expose this state and probably overlooked what I already had, somehow.

Just how the condition is expressed, or more? The condition can be simplified to while(changed), which I've done locally.

Fair point! I'll have a play with reworking it.

I wasn't satisfied with the naming here either, so thanks for the suggestion.

I'll look into it. I started experimenting with a VMState struct early on in the implementation but threw it away as it wasn't my primary focus at the time.

Okay, I wasn't aware of that. I'll remove it.

We have devices in the tree that are either based on non-public datasheets
or occasionally reverse engineered from Linux kernel drivers. That's OK,
but it's nice to be clear in a comment at the top what the source is,
so people maintaining it later know how much to trust the current code
and (if possible) where to look for clarification.

Usually functions in QEMU called thingy_irq_update() are the ones
that do "look at current state of device and assert IRQ as
necessary"; often this is "mask irq raw state against some
irq-masking bit". Merging this into the timer expire function will
probably help. (Is there no register bit that the guest can query
that indicates "timer expired" or "raw interrupt state" ?)

We insist on vmstate structs for all new devices, because
they're fairly easy to implement, and if the original
submitter doesn't implement one then the device becomes
a landmine for any user trying migration or vmstate snapshots,
because it will silently misbehave.

No worries, I'll add notes in the header comments for each of the new
files.

It doesn't appear so - overflow interrupts can be enabled or disabled,
but it doesn't appear that there's a way to poll whether the timer has
expired. It doesn't look like it can be inferred either as the counter
status register doesn't stick at zero, rather resets back to the reload
register value (and my interpretation is it continues to count down if
the enabled bit remains set). Further, the interrupt on overflow bit
doesn't appear to be set by the kernel driver, but the two match
registers are initialised to zero which ensures an interrupt will be
fired. Non-zero match registers aren't currently supported by the
device model. I'll try to make this all clearer in the code.

Yeah, no worries, v3 of the series will have VMState structs for all
devices.
