树莓派3B——Mailbox

概述

Mailbox有助于ARM和VideoCore之间的通信。下面列出了可用Mailbox/channel。每个Mailbox都是一个8位深的32位字FIFO，可由ARM和VC读取/写入。只有Mailbox 0的状态可以触发ARM上的中断，因此Mailbox 0始终用于从VC到ARM的通信，Mailbox 1用于ARM到VC。ARM永远不应该写Mailbox 0或读Mailbox 1。
树莓派Mailbox0和Mailbox1通信流程：

Channel(通道)

下面列出了当前定义的Mailbox通道，其中包含指向描述消息格式的页面的链接。
邮箱0定义以下渠道：
0：电源管理
1：帧缓冲
2：虚拟UART
3：VCHIQ
4：LED
5：按钮
6：触摸屏
7：属性标签（ARM - > VC）
8：属性标签(VC - > ARM)

Mailbox寄存器

以下给出了Mailbox各个寄存器的地址偏移量，MailBox0的基地址是0x3F00B880，Mailbox使用和配置流程详见：
这里

#define VIDEOCORE_MBOX (0x3F00B880)
#define MAILBOX0_READ ((volatile unsigned int*)(VIDEOCORE_MBOX + 0x00))
#define MAILBOX0_PEEK ((volatile unsigned int*)(VIDEOCORE_MBOX + 0x10))
#define MAILBOX0_SENDER ((volatile unsigned int*)(VIDEOCORE_MBOX + 0x14))
#define MAILBOX0_STATUS ((volatile unsigned int*)(VIDEOCORE_MBOX + 0x18))
#define MAILBOX0_CONFIG ((volatile unsigned int*)(VIDEOCORE_MBOX + 0x1C))
#define MAILBOX1_WRITE ((volatile unsigned int*)(VIDEOCORE_MBOX + 0x20))
#define MAILBOX1_PEEK ((volatile unsigned int*)(VIDEOCORE_MBOX + 0x30))
#define MAILBOX1_SENDER ((volatile unsigned int*)(VIDEOCORE_MBOX + 0x34))
#define MAILBOX1_STATUS ((volatile unsigned int*)(VIDEOCORE_MBOX + 0x38))
#define MAILBOX1_CONFIG ((volatile unsigned int*)(VIDEOCORE_MBOX + 0x3C))
#define ARM_MS_FULL BIT(31)
#define ARM_MS_EMPTY BIT(30)
#define ARM_MC_IHAVEDATAIRQEN BIT(0)

树莓派Mailbox访问一般流程：

要从邮箱中读取：
1、读取状态寄存器，直到没有设置empty标志
2、从读寄存器读取数据
3、如果低4位与所需的通道编号不匹配，则从1开始重复
4、高28位是返回的数据
写入邮箱：
1、读取状态寄存器，直到未设置full标志
2、将数据（移入高28位）与通道（低4位）一起写入写寄存器

树莓派Mailbox数据包格式

---

• U32: 整个数据包大小，单位字节(包括头，end标记和字节对齐填充)
• U32: 请求/回复代码

  • 请求代码:

    • 0x00000000: process request

  • 回复代码:

    • 0x80000000: 请求成功
    • 0x80000001: error

---

tag有如下格式：

• U32: tag identifier
• U32: value buffer size, 单位字节
• U32:
  • 请求代码:
    • b31: 0
    • b30-b0: reserved
  • 回复代码:
    • b31: 1
    • b30-b0: value length, 单位字节
• U8…: value buffer
• U8…: 整个tag以32字节对齐

---

• U32: 0x0 (end tag)
• U8…: padding
