+Xilinx IPI Mailbox Controller
+========================================
+
+The Xilinx IPI(Inter Processor Interrupt) mailbox controller is to manage
+messaging between two Xilinx Zynq UltraScale+ MPSoC IPI agents. Each IPI
+agent owns registers used for notification and buffers for message.

+Controller Device Node:
+===========================
+Required properties:
+--------------------
+- compatible: Shall be: "xlnx,zynqmp-ipi-mailbox"
+- reg: IPI buffers address ranges
+- reg-names: Names of the reg resources. It should have:
+ * local_request_region
+ - IPI request msg buffer written by local and read
+ by remote
+ * local_response_region
+ - IPI response msg buffer written by local and read
+ by remote
+ * remote_request_region
+ - IPI request msg buffer written by remote and read
+ by local
+ * remote_response_region
+ - IPI response msg buffer written by remote and read
+ by local
+- #mbox-cells: Shall be 1. It contains:
+ * tx(0) or rx(1) channel
+- xlnx-ipi-ids: Xilinx IPI agent IDs of the two peers of the
+ Xilinx IPI communication channel.
+- interrupt-parent: Phandle for the interrupt controller
+- interrupts: Interrupt information corresponding to the
+ interrupt-names property.
+
+Optional properties:
+--------------------
+- method: The method of accessing the IPI agent registers.
+ Permitted values are: "smc" and "hvc". Default is
+ "smc".
+
+Client Device Node:
+===========================
+Required properties:
+--------------------
+- mboxes: Standard property to specify a mailbox
+ (See ./mailbox.txt)
+- mbox-names: List of identifier strings for each mailbox
+ channel.
+
+Example:
+===========================
+ /* APU<->RPU0 IPI mailbox controller */
+ ipi_mailbox_rpu0: mailbox at ff90400 {
+ compatible = "xlnx,zynqmp-ipi-mailbox";
+ reg = <0x0 0xff990400 0x0 0x20>,
+ <0x0 0xff990420 0x0 0x20>,
+ <0x0 0xff990080 0x0 0x20>,
+ <0x0 0xff9900a0 0x0 0x20>;
+ reg-names = "local_request_region", "local_response_region",
+ "remote_request_region", "remote_response_region";
+ #mbox-cells = <1>;
+ xlnx-ipi-ids = <0 1>;
+ interrupt-parent = <&gic>;
+ interrupts = <0 29 4>;
+ };
+ /* APU<->RPU1 IPI mailbox controller */
+ ipi_mailbox_rpu1: mailbox at ff990440 {
+ compatible = "xlnx,zynqmp-ipi-mailbox";
+ reg = <0x0 0xff990440 0x0 0x20>,
+ <0x0 0xff990460 0x0 0x20>,
+ <0x0 0xff990280 0x0 0x20>,
+ <0x0 0xff9902a0 0x0 0x20>;
+ reg-names = "local_request_region", "local_response_region",
+ "remote_request_region", "remote_response_region";
+ #mbox-cells = <1>;
+ xlnx-ipi-ids = <0 2>;
+ interrupt-parent = <&gic>;
+ interrupts = <0 29 4>;
+ };
+ rpu0 {
+ ...
+ mboxes = <&ipi_mailbox_rpu0 0>,
+ <&ipi_mailbox_rpu0 1>;
+ mbox-names = "tx", "rx";
+ };
+ rpu1 {
+ ...
+ mboxes = <&ipi_mailbox_rpu1 0>,
