In my reference manual the addresses are given directly as numbers. I
often wondered for the other i.MX SoCs what the advantage of such such
multi-stage defines is:
#define MX7_AIPS1_ARB_BASE_ADDR 0x30000000
#define MX7_ATZ1_BASE_ADDR MX7_AIPS1_ARB_BASE_ADDR
#define MX7_AIPS1_OFF_BASE_ADDR (MX7_ATZ1_BASE_ADDR + 0x200000)
#define MX7_GPIO1_BASE_ADDR (MX7_AIPS1_OFF_BASE_ADDR)
I often enough ended up calculating the values by hand to get the
address to type into barebox md/mw commands or to see which address
is meant to look it up in the reference manual (for some defines which
do not have a clear name)
Are there any real advantages of these multi stage defines? Otherwise
I would suggest to use the absolute addresses directly.
Thanks for completing the list anyway, having to add them one by one
as needed can be annoying also.
