firmware: tegra: Add IVC library The Inter-VM communication (IVC) is a communication protocol which is designed for interprocessor communication (IPC) or the communication between the hypervisor and the virtual machine with a guest OS. Message channels are used to communicate between processors. They are backed by DRAM or SRAM, so care must be taken to maintain coherence of data. The IVC library maintains memory-based descriptors for the transmission and reception channels as well as the data coherence of the counter and payload. Clients, such as the driver for the BPMP firmware, can use the library to exchange messages with remote processors.

firmware: tegra: Add BPMP support The Boot and Power Management Processor (BPMP) is a co-processor found on Tegra SoCs. It is designed to handle the early stages of the boot process and offload power management tasks (such as clocks, resets, powergates, ...) as well as system control services. Compared to the ARM SCPI, the services provided by BPMP are message- based rather than method-based. The BPMP firmware driver provides the services to transmit data to and receive data from the BPMP. Users can also register a Message ReQuest (MRQ), for which a service routine will be run when a corresponding event is received from the firmware. A set of messages, called the BPMP ABI, are specified for a number of different services provided by the BPMP (such as clocks or resets).

help
BPMP (Boot and Power Management Processor) is designed to off-loading
the PM functions which include clock/DVFS/thermal/power from the CPU.
It needs HSP as the HW synchronization and notification module and
IVC module as the message communication protocol.
This driver manages the IPC interface between host CPU and the
firmware running on BPMP.
