The Xilinx Zynq FPGA driver takes ownership of the PR interface, making
it impossible to use the ICAP interface for partial reconfiguration.

This patch changes the driver to only activate PR over PCAP while the
device is actively being accessed by the driver for programming.

This allows both PCAP and ICAP interfaces to be used for PR.

Hi Mike,

seems like a good usecase (though uncommon), question below

Shouldn't that be after the below stanza that enables the clock?

Usecases for ICAP:
- It's considerably faster than PCAP
- Self-repairing logic (e.g. single-event upsets)
- Being programmed from a remote FPGA
- Programming through another bus (e.g. PCIe)

I'm actually not sure, and I did not encounter any problems while testing 
this, but it's easier to just move it than to find out, so I'll go for "yes, 
let's enable the clock first".
I'll await a bit more feedback and post a v2 for that.

Yeah, I wasn't saying it's a bad usecase, just not super common :)

Ok, I had suspected you tested it and probably didn't run into issues,
but just wanted to make sure we think about it. If you don't mind, swap
it around as I suggested just to be safe.

With that change feel free to add my Reviewed-by: Moritz Fischer
<mdf@kernel.org> in your v2.

Thanks for the patch,

Moritz

That clock can be used by something else that's why you didn't observe
any issue. Anyway I have no problem with reverting that setting back
that icap can be used.
In general there should be synchronization mechanism for this. And also
driver "feature" not to enable access from icap for security reason. But
that's something what should be done in other patch.

Thanks,
Michal

Ok, thanks for clarification, that was what I assumed :)

Yeah I'll have to look at remote notifications for FPGA managers
soon-ish for another
project as discussed at ELCE. Part of that would be synchronization I guess :)

Umhh, based on the secure state read from CTRL_SEC_EN bit, or did you
think along the
lines of "xlnx,no-icap" property that your bootloader / dt would provide?

Cheers,

Moritz
