+description: |
+  Arm Trace Buffer Extension (TRBE) is a per CPU component
+  for storing trace generated on the CPU to memory. It is
+  accessed via CPU system registers. The software can verify
+  if it is permitted to use the component by checking the
+  TRBIDR register.
+
+properties:
+  $nodename:
+    const: "trbe"
+  compatible:
+    items:
+      - const: arm,trace-buffer-extension

+    description: |
+       Exactly 1 PPI must be listed. For heterogeneous systems where
+       TRBE is only supported on a subset of the CPUs, please consult
+       the arm,gic-v3 binding for details on describing a PPI partition.
