I know that we hardcoded this value for the A20. However, I am wondering if we could find this address from the Device-Tree?

Yes, both sun7i-a20.dtsi and the H5 .dts have the WDT.
Its compatible strings are sun4i-a10-wdt and sun6i-a31-wdt, respectively. I have to check what the differences are, but I guess for our purposes these should be small.
That seems like a call to some proper DT driven timer/WDT driver?

Scratch that. I just see that this is solely used for the reset function. So we should not need this for the H5 (and the A64 for that matter). We may need this for the H3 (Cortex-A7) support, however, which seems quite popular on cheap boards.

Cheers,
Andre

If I read correctly the Device-Tree for (linux/arch/arm64/boot/dts/allwinner/sun50i-h5.dtsi), the firmware is supporting PSCI 0.2.

PSCI 0.2 provides call for power-off/reset, so implementation the reset callback should not be necessary.

Yes, indeed, on the H5 PSCI 0.2 reset works via ATF.

Similarly the cubietrucks we have in osstest are using PSCI 0.2 and should not need the reset. Andre do you know if it is the case for all the A20?

It claims 0.2, but in fact it seems not to be fully compliant, as (from looking at the code) U-Boot lacks the reset and poweroff calls. But it looks rather straight-forward to add them, as U-Boot knows how to reset and one would just need to wire up psci_system_reset to this.

For H5, I would impose PSCI 0.2 as the way to reset the platform.

Yes.

I am leaning towards the same for A20 given that it would just be a matter of upgrading the bootloader. Most likely you would have already done that to get fixes.

Not sure we should push people to upgrade U-Boot in general to be able to use Xen, but as even current mainline U-Boot doesn't seem to support it, I would rather leave the current reset support code in. Last time I checked Linux does the same.

Cheers,
Andre.
