Hi,

I'm facing an issue where my Zynq's XADC internal registers seem to be
getting reset during PL reconfiguration.

I'm using the XADC in "Zynq" mode, ie "xlnx,zynq-xadc-1.00.a" and am
re-configuring the PL using the fpga_manager interface (echo
firmware.bin > /sys/class/fpga_manager/fpga0/firmware).

I noticed this as channels 6, 7 and 8 on the ADC would return 0 after
a reconfiguration was performed.

Littering the XADC driver code with debugging printks it seems as
though all of the XADC  configuration and sequencing registers
(XADC_REG_CONF0/1/2, XADC_REG_SEQ0/1,
& XADC_REG_INPUT_MODE0/1) get reset (to 0) after reconfiguration. I
was under the impression that because the XADC was a hard macro in the
PL it shouldn't be reset through a reconfiguration. But please let me
know if I'm wrong about this.

Looking through the reconfiguration driver in zynq-fpga.c, it seems as
though the PCFG_PROG_B bit is toggled to force a "global reset" of the
PL upon reconfiguration. It's not clear from the datasheet whether or
not this should effect the XADC, but as it's listed as optional for
reconfiguration, I tried removing all writes to it. This seems to
sometimes stop the XADC from being reset during reconfiguration but
sometimes it still does reset the XADC.

I'm a little bit lost of how to proceed with this. I can hack a fix by
detecting if the XADC registers are reset in the XADC driver but this
is ugly and not really generalizable. I'm happy to keep debugging but
any direction of what I should look into would be really appreciated.

I'm currently using the Xilinx rel-2018.3 kernel but I tried
backporting the latest XADC driver and still had the same issue.
