+== Introduction==
+
+LLCC (Last Level Cache Controller) provides last level of cache memory in SOC,
+that can be shared by multiple clients. Clients here are different cores in the
+SOC, the idea is to minimize the local caches at the clients and migrate to
+common pool of memory. Cache memory is divided into partitions called slices
+which are assigned to clients. Clients can query the slice details, activate
+and deactivate them.
+
+Properties:
+- compatible:
+	Usage: required
+	Value type: <string>
+	Definition: must be "qcom,sdm845-llcc"
+
+- reg:
+	Usage: required
+	Value Type: <prop-encoded-array>
+	Definition: Start address and the range of the LLCC registers.
+
+- max-slices:
+	usage: required
+	Value Type: <u32>
+	Definition: Number of cache slices supported by hardware
+
+Example:
+
+	llcc: qcom,llcc at 1100000 {
+		compatible = "qcom,sdm845-llcc";
+		reg = <0x1100000 0x250000>;
+		max-slices = <32>;
+	};
