ASPEED AST2700 has multiple processors that need to communicate with each
|
||||
other. The mailbox controller provides a way for these processors to send
|
||||
messages to each other. It is a hardware-based inter-processor communication
|
||||
mechanism that allows processors to send and receive messages through
|
||||
dedicated channels.
|
||||
|
||||
The mailbox's tx/rx are independent, meaning that one processor can send a
|
||||
message while another processor is receiving a message simultaneously.
|
||||
There are 4 channels available for both tx and rx operations. Each channel
|
||||
has a FIFO buffer that can hold messages of a fixed size (32 bytes in this
|
||||
case).
|
||||
|
||||
The mailbox controller also supports interrupt generation, allowing
|
||||
processors to notify each other when a message is available or when an event
|
||||
occurs.
