[PATCH v4 1/8] Documentation: add DT binding for ARM System Control and Power Interface(SCPI) protocol

[Sudeep Holla]

This patch adds devicetree binding for System Control and Power
Interface (SCPI) Message Protocol used between the Application Cores(AP)
and the System Control Processor(SCP). The MHU peripheral provides a
mechanism for inter-processor communication between SCP's M3 processor
and AP.

SCP offers control and management of the core/cluster power states,
various power domain DVFS including the core/cluster, certain system
clocks configuration, thermal sensors and many others.

+System Control and Power Interface (SCPI) Message Protocol
+----------------------------------------------------------
+
+Firmware implementing the SCPI described in ARM document number ARM DUI 0922B
+("ARM Compute Subsystem SCP: Message Interface Protocols")[0] can be used
+by Linux to initiate various system control and power operations.
+
+Required properties:
+
+- compatible : should be "arm,scpi"
+- mboxes: List of phandle and mailbox channel specifiers
+	  All the channels reserved by remote SCP firmware for use by
+	  SCPI message protocol should be specified in any order
+- shmem : List of phandle pointing to the shared memory(SHM) area between the
+	  processors using these mailboxes for IPC, one for each mailbox
+	  SHM can be any memory reserved for the purpose of this communication
+	  between the processors.
+
+See Documentation/devicetree/bindings/mailbox/mailbox.txt
+for more details about the generic mailbox controller and
+client driver bindings.
+
+Clock bindings for the clocks based on SCPI Message Protocol
+------------------------------------------------------------
+
+This binding uses the common clock binding[1].
+
+Container Node
+==============
+Required properties:
+- compatible : should be "arm,scpi-clocks"
+	       All the clocks provided by SCP firmware via SCPI message
+	       protocol much be listed as sub-nodes under this node.
+
+Sub-nodes
+=========
+Required properties:
+- compatible : shall include one of the following
+	"arm,scpi-dvfs-clocks" - all the clocks that are variable and index based.
+		These clocks don't provide the full range between the limits
+		but only discrete points within the range. The firmware
+		provides the mapping for each such operating frequency and the
+		index associated with it. The firmware also manages the
+		voltage scaling appropriately with the clock scaling.
+	"arm,scpi-variable-clocks" - all the clocks that are variable and provide full
+		range within the specified range. The firmware provides the
+		supported range for each clock.
+
+Other required properties for all clocks(all from common clock binding):
+- #clock-cells : should be set to 1 as each of the SCPI clocks have multiple
+	outputs. The clock specifier will be the index to an entry in the list
+	of output clocks.
+- clock-output-names : shall be the corresponding names of the outputs.
+- clock-indices: The identifyng number for the clocks(clock_id) in the node as
+	expected by the firmware. It can be non linear and hence provide the
+	mapping	of identifiers into the clock-output-names array.
+
+SRAM and Shared Memory for SCPI
+-------------------------------
+
+A small area of SRAM is reserved for SCPI communication between application
+processors and SCP.
+
+Required properties:
+- compatible : should be "arm,juno-sram-ns" for Non-secure SRAM on Juno
+
+The rest of the properties should follow the generic mmio-sram discription
+found in ../../misc/sysram.txt
+
+Each sub-node represents the reserved area for SCPI.
+
+Required sub-node properties:
+- reg : The base offset and size of the reserved area with the SRAM
+- compatible : should be "arm,juno-scp-shmem" for Non-secure SRAM based
+	       shared memory on Juno platforms

+
+Example:
+
+sram: sram at 50000000 {
+	compatible = "arm,juno-sram-ns", "mmio-sram";
+	reg = <0x0 0x50000000 0x0 0x10000>;
+
+	#address-cells = <1>;
+	#size-cells = <1>;
+	ranges = <0 0x0 0x50000000 0x10000>;
+
+	cpu_scp_lpri: scp-shmem at 0 {
+		compatible = "arm,juno-scp-shmem";
+		reg = <0x0 0x200>;
+	};
+
+	cpu_scp_hpri: scp-shmem at 200 {
+		compatible = "arm,juno-scp-shmem";
+		reg = <0x200 0x200>;
+	};
+};
+
+mailbox: mailbox0 at 40000000 {
+	....
+	#mbox-cells = <1>;
+};
+
+scpi_protocol: scpi at 2e000000 {
+	compatible = "arm,scpi";
+	mboxes = <&mailbox 0 &mailbox 1>;
+	shmem = <&cpu_scp_lpri &cpu_scp_hpri>;
+
+	clocks {
+		compatible = "arm,scpi-clocks";
+
+		scpi_dvfs: scpi_clocks at 0 {
+			compatible = "arm,scpi-dvfs-clocks";
+			#clock-cells = <1>;
+			clock-indices = <0>, <1>, <2>;
+			clock-output-names = "vbig", "vlittle", "vgpu";
+		};
+		scpi_clk: scpi_clocks at 3 {
+			compatible = "arm,scpi-variable-clocks";
+			#clock-cells = <1>;
+			clock-indices = <3>, <4>;
+			clock-output-names = "pxlclk0", "pxlclk1";
+		};
+	};
+};
+
+cpu at 0 {
+	...
+	reg = <0 0>;
+	clocks = <&scpi_dvfs 0>;
+	clock-names = "vbig";
+};
+
+hdlcd at 7ff60000 {
+	...
+	reg = <0 0x7ff60000 0 0x1000>;
+	clocks = <&scpi_clk 1>;
+	clock-names = "pxlclk";
+};
+
+In the above example, the #clock-cells is set to 1 as required.
+scpi_dvfs has 3 output clocks namely: vbig, vlittle and vgpu with 0, 1
+and 2 as clock-indices. scpi_clk has 2 output clocks namely: pxlclk0 and
+pxlclk1 with 3 and 4 as clock-indices.
+
+The first consumer in the example is cpu at 0 and it has vbig as input clock.
+The index '0' in the clock specifier here points to the first entry in the
+output clocks of scpi_dvfs for which clock_id asrequired by the firmware
+is 0.
+
+Similarly the second example is hdlcd at 7ff60000 and it has pxlclk0 as input
+clock. The index '1' in the clock specifier here points to the second entry
+in the output clocks of scpi_clocks for which clock_id as required by the
+firmware is 4.
