title: Microchip PolarFire SoC (MPFS) MSS (microprocessor subsystem) system controller
maintainers:
- Conor Dooley <conor.dooley@microchip.com>
description: |
PolarFire SoC devices include a microcontroller acting as the system controller,
which provides "services" to the main processor and to the FPGA fabric. These
services include hardware rng, reprogramming of the FPGA and verification of the
eNVM contents etc. More information on these services can be found online, at
https://onlinedocs.microchip.com/pr/GUID-1409CF11-8EF9-4C24-A94E-70979A688632-en-US-1/index.html
Communication with the system controller is done via a mailbox, of which the client
portion is documented here.

description:
The SPI flash connected to the system controller's QSPI controller.
The system controller may retrieve FPGA bitstreams from this flash to
perform In-Application Programming (IAP) or during device initialisation
for Auto Update. The MSS and system controller have separate QSPI
controllers and this flash is connected to both. Software running in the
MSS can write bitstreams to the flash.

Annotation
- Atlas domain: Support Tooling And Documentation / Documentation.
- Implementation status: atlas-only.
Implementation Notes
- This generated page is the file-by-file coverage layer; curated subsystem chapters should link here when they synthesize a multi-file control flow.
- Core OS pages should be promoted from atlas-only to deep-reviewed when they explain data structures, invariants, locking, lifecycle, and C implementation snippets.
- Driver-family pages are intentionally pattern-oriented unless they are part of the selected PCIe/NVMe representative device path.
