+Bulk Register Access (BRA)
+==========================
+
+Conventions
+-----------
+
+Capitalized words used in this documentation are intentional and refer
+to concepts of the SoundWire 1.x specification.
+
+Introduction
+------------
+
+The SoundWire 1.x specification provides a mechanism to speed-up
+command/control transfers by reclaiming parts of the audio
+bandwidth. The Bulk Register Access (BRA) protocol is a standard
+solution based on the Bulk Payload Transport (BPT) definitions.
+
+The regular control channel uses Column 0 and can only send/retrieve
+one byte per frame with write/read commands. With a typical 48kHz
+frame rate, only 48kB/s can be transferred.
+
+The optional Bulk Register Access capability can transmit up to 12
+Mbits/s and reduce transfer times by several orders of magnitude, but
+has multiple design constraints:
+
+  (1) Each frame can only support a read or a write transfer, with a
+      10-byte overhead per frame (header and footer response).
+
+  (2) The read/writes SHALL be from/to contiguous register addresses
+      in the same frame. A fragmented register space decreases the
+      efficiency of the protocol by requiring multiple BRA transfers
+      scheduled in different frames.
+
+  (3) The targeted Peripheral device SHALL support the optional Data
+      Port 0, and likewise the Manager SHALL expose audio-like Ports
+      to insert BRA packets in the audio payload using the concepts of
+      Sample Interval, HSTART, HSTOP, etc.
+
+  (4) The BRA transport efficiency depends on the available
+      bandwidth. If there are no on-going audio transfers, the entire
+      frame minus Column 0 can be reclaimed for BRA. The frame shape
+      also impacts efficiency: since Column0 cannot be used for
+      BTP/BRA, the frame should rely on a large number of columns and
+      minimize the number of rows. The bus clock should be as high as
+      possible.
+
+  (5) The number of bits transferred per frame SHALL be a multiple of
+      8 bits. Padding bits SHALL be inserted if necessary at the end
+      of the data.
+
+  (6) The regular read/write commands can be issued in parallel with
+      BRA transfers. This is convenient to e.g. deal with alerts, jack
+      detection or change the volume during firmware download, but
+      accessing the same address with two independent protocols has to
+      be avoided to avoid undefined behavior.
+
+  (7) Some implementations may not be capable of handling the
+      bandwidth of the BRA protocol, e.g. in the case of a slow I2C
+      bus behind the SoundWire IP. In this case, the transfers may
+      need to be spaced in time or flow-controlled.
+
+  (8) Each BRA packet SHALL be marked as 'Active' when valid data is
+      to be transmitted. This allows for software to allocate a BRA
+      stream but not transmit/discard data while processing the
+      results or preparing the next batch of data, or allowing the
+      peripheral to deal with the previous transfer. In addition BRA
+      transfer can be started early on without data being ready.
+
+  (9) Up to 470 bytes may be transmitted per frame.
+
+  (10) The address is represented with 32 bits and does not rely on
+       the paging registers used for the regular command/control
+       protocol in Column 0.
+
+
+Error checking
+--------------
+
+Firmware download is one of the key usages of the Bulk Register Access
+protocol. To make sure the binary data integrity is not compromised by
+transmission or programming errors, each BRA packet provides:
+
+  (1) A CRC on the 7-byte header. This CRC helps the Peripheral Device
+      check if it is addressed and set the start address and number of
+      bytes. The Peripheral Device provides a response in Byte 7.
+
+  (2) A CRC on the data block (header excluded). This CRC is
+      transmitted as the last-but-one byte in the packet, prior to the
+      footer response.
+
+The header response can be one of:
+  (a) Ack
+  (b) Nak
+  (c) Not Ready
+
+The footer response can be one of:
+  (1) Ack
+  (2) Nak  (CRC failure)
+  (3) Good (operation completed)
+  (4) Bad  (operation failed)
+
+Example frame
+-------------
+
+The example below is not to scale and makes simplifying assumptions
+for clarity. The different chunks in the BRA packets are not required
+to start on a new SoundWire Row, and the scale of data may vary.

+
+Assuming the frame uses N columns, the configuration shown above can
+be programmed by setting the DP0 registers as:
+
+    - HSTART = 1
+    - HSTOP = N - 1
+    - Sampling Interval = N
+    - WordLength = N - 1
+
+Addressing restrictions
+-----------------------
+
+The Device Number specified in the Header follows the SoundWire
+definitions, and broadcast and group addressing are permitted. For now
+the Linux implementation only allows for a single BPT transfer to a
+single device at a time. This might be revisited at a later point as
+an optimization to send the same firmware to multiple devices, but
+this would only be beneficial for single-link solutions.
+
+In the case of multiple Peripheral devices attached to different
+Managers, the broadcast and group addressing is not supported by the
+SoundWire specification. Each device must be handled with separate BRA
+streams, possibly in parallel - the links are really independent.
+
+Unsupported features
+--------------------
+
+The Bulk Register Access specification provides a number of
+capabilities that are not supported in known implementations, such as:
+
+  (1) Transfers initiated by a Peripheral Device. The BRA Initiator is
+      always the Manager Device.
+
+  (2) Flow-control capabilities and retransmission based on the
+      'NotReady' header response require extra buffering in the
+      SoundWire IP and are not implemented.
+
+Bi-directional handling
+-----------------------
+
+The BRA protocol can handle writes as well as reads, and in each
+packet the header and footer response are provided by the Peripheral
+Target device. On the Peripheral device, the BRA protocol is handled
+by a single DP0 data port, and at the low-level the bus ownership can
+will change for header/footer response as well as the data transmitted
+during a read.
+
+On the host side, most implementations rely on a Port-like concept,
+with two FIFOs consuming/generating data transfers in parallel
+(Host->Peripheral and Peripheral->Host). The amount of data
+consumed/produced by these FIFOs is not symmetrical, as a result
+hardware typically inserts markers to help software and hardware
+interpret raw data
+
+Each packet will typically have:
+
+  (1) a 'Start of Packet' indicator.
+
+  (2) an 'End of Packet' indicator.
+
+  (3) a packet identifier to correlate the data requested and
+      transmitted, and the error status for each frame
+
+Hardware implementations can check errors at the frame level, and
+retry a transfer in case of errors. However, as for the flow-control
+case, this requires extra buffering and intelligence in the
+hardware. The Linux support assumes that the entire transfer is
+cancelled if a single error is detected in one of the responses.
+
+Abstraction required
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+There are no standard registers or mandatory implementation at the
+Manager level, so the low-level BPT/BRA details must be hidden in
+Manager-specific code. For example the Cadence IP format above is not
+known to the codec drivers.
+
+Likewise, codec drivers should not have to know the frame size. The
+computation of CRC and handling of responses is handled in helpers and
+Manager-specific code.
+
+The host BRA driver may also have restrictions on pages allocated for
+DMA, or other host-DSP communication protocols. The codec driver
+should not be aware of any of these restrictions, since it might be
+reused in combination with different implementations of Manager IPs.
+
+Concurrency between BRA and regular read/write
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+The existing 'nread/nwrite' API already relies on a notion of start
+address and number of bytes, so it would be possible to extend this
+API with a 'hint' requesting BPT/BRA be used.
+
+However BRA transfers could be quite long, and the use of a single
+mutex for regular read/write and BRA is a show-stopper. Independent
+operation of the control/command and BRA transfers is a fundamental
+requirement, e.g. to change the volume level with the existing regmap
+interface while downloading firmware. The integration must however
+ensure that there are no concurrent access to the same address with
+the command/control protocol and the BRA protocol.
+
+In addition, the 'sdw_msg' structure hard-codes support for 16-bit
+addresses and paging registers which are irrelevant for BPT/BRA
+support based on native 32-bit addresses. A separate API with
+'sdw_bpt_msg' makes more sense.
+
+One possible strategy to speed-up all initialization tasks would be to
+start a BRA transfer for firmware download, then deal with all the
+"regular" read/writes in parallel with the command channel, and last
+to wait for the BRA transfers to complete. This would allow for a
+degree of overlap instead of a purely sequential solution. As such,
+the BRA API must support async transfers and expose a separate wait
+function.
+
+
+Peripheral/bus interface
+------------------------
+
+The bus interface for BPT/BRA is made of two functions:
+
+    - sdw_bpt_send_async(bpt_message)
+
+      This function sends the data using the Manager
+      implementation-defined capabilities (typically DMA or IPC
+      protocol).
+
+      Queueing is currently not supported, the caller
+      needs to wait for completion of the requested transfer.
+
+   - sdw_bpt_wait()
+
+      This function waits for the entire message provided by the
+      codec driver in the 'send_async' stage. Intermediate status for
+      smaller chunks will not be provided back to the codec driver,
+      only a return code will be provided.
+
+Regmap use
+~~~~~~~~~~
+
+Existing codec drivers rely on regmap to download firmware to
+Peripherals. regmap exposes an async interface similar to the
+send/wait API suggested above, so at a high-level it would seem
+natural to combine BRA and regmap. The regmap layer could check if BRA
+is available or not, and use a regular read-write command channel in
+the latter case.
+
+The regmap integration will be handled in a second step.
+
+BRA stream model
+----------------
+
+For regular audio transfers, the machine driver exposes a dailink
+connecting CPU DAI(s) and Codec DAI(s).
+
+This model is not required BRA support:
+
+   (1) The SoundWire DAIs are mainly wrappers for SoundWire Data
+       Ports, with possibly some analog or audio conversion
+       capabilities bolted behind the Data Port. In the context of
+       BRA, the DP0 is the destination. DP0 registers are standard and
+       can be programmed blindly without knowing what Peripheral is
+       connected to each link. In addition, if there are multiple
+       Peripherals on a link and some of them do not support DP0, the
+       write commands to program DP0 registers will generate harmless
+       COMMAND_IGNORED responses that will be wired-ORed with
+       responses from Peripherals which support DP0. In other words,
+       the DP0 programming can be done with broadcast commands, and
+       the information on the Target device can be added only in the
+       BRA Header.
+
+   (2) At the CPU level, the DAI concept is not useful for BRA; the
+       machine driver will not create a dailink relying on DP0. The
+       only concept that is needed is the notion of port.
+
+   (3) The stream concept relies on a set of master_rt and slave_rt
+       concepts. All of these entities represent ports and not DAIs.
+
+   (4) With the assumption that a single BRA stream is used per link,
+       that stream can connect master ports as well as all peripheral
+       DP0 ports.
+
+   (5) BRA transfers only make sense in the context of one
+       Manager/Link, so the BRA stream handling does not rely on the
+       concept of multi-link aggregation allowed by regular DAI links.
+
+Audio DMA support
+-----------------
+
+Some DMAs, such as HDaudio, require an audio format field to be
+set. This format is in turn used to define acceptable bursts. BPT/BRA
+support is not fully compatible with these definitions in that the
+format and bandwidth may vary between read and write commands.
+
+In addition, on Intel HDaudio Intel platforms the DMAs need to be
+programmed with a PCM format matching the bandwidth of the BPT/BRA
+transfer. The format is based on 192kHz 32-bit samples, and the number
+of channels varies to adjust the bandwidth. The notion of channel is
+completely notional since the data is not typical audio
+PCM. Programming such channels helps reserve enough bandwidth and adjust
+FIFO sizes to avoid xruns.
+
+Alignment requirements are currently not enforced at the core level
+but at the platform-level, e.g. for Intel the data sizes must be
+multiples of 32 bytes.
