Hi All,

Below is the draft proposal for SBI Debug Console Extension.

Please review it and provide feedback.

Thanks,
Anup

The use of these two APIs is too complicated, and the supervisor-mode
software needs to create a data structure to manage the Console Area.
I recommend using the simpler interface:

struct sbiret sbi_debug_console_puts(unsigned long addr,
unsigned long num_chars)

Debug Console Extension (EID #0x4442434E "DBCN")
================================================

The debug console extension defines a generic mechanism for boot-time
early prints from supervisor-mode software which allows users to catch
boot-time issues in supervisor-mode software.

This extension replaces legacy console putchar (EID #0x01) extension
and it is better in following ways:
1) It follows the new calling convention defined for SBI v1.0
(or higher).
2) It is based on a shared memory area between SBI implementation
and supervisor-mode software so multiple characters can be
printed using a single SBI call.

The supervisor-mode software must set the shared memory area before
printing characters on the debug console. Also, all HARTs share the
same shared memory area so only one HART needs to set it at boot-time.

Function: Set Console Area (FID #0)
-----------------------------------

struct sbiret sbi_debug_console_set_area(unsigned long addr_div_by_4,
unsigned long size)

Set the shared memory area specified by `addr_div_by_2` and `size`
parameters. The `addr_div_by_4` parameter is base address of the
shared memory area right shifted by 2 whereas `size` parameter is
the size of shared memory area in bytes.

The shared memory area should be normal cacheable memory for the
supervisor-mode software. Also, the shared memory area is global
across all HARTs so SBI implementation must ensure atomicity in
setting the shared memory area.

Errors:
SBI_SUCCESS - Shared memory area set successfully.
SBI_ERR_INVALID_ADDRESS - The shared memory area pointed by
`addr_div_by_2` and `size` parameters
is not normal cacheable memory or not
accessible to supervisor-mode software.

Function: Console Puts (FID #1)
-------------------------------

struct sbiret sbi_debug_console_puts(unsigned long area_offset,
unsigned long num_chars)

Print the string specified by `area_offset` and `num_chars` on
the debug console. The `area_offset` parameter is the start of
string in the shard memory area whereas `num_chars` parameter
is the number of characters (or bytes) in the string.

This is a blocking SBI call and will only return after printing
all characters of the string.

Errors:
SBI_SUCCESS - Characters printed successfully.
SBI_ERR_INVALID_ADDRESS - The start of the string (i.e.
`area_offset`) or end of the string
(i.e. `area_offset + num_chars`) is
outside shared memory area.
