+title: RISC-V ACLINT M-level Timer

+
+description:
+ RISC-V SOCs include an implementation of the M-level timer (MTIMER) defined
+ in the RISC-V Advanced Core Local Interruptor (ACLINT) specification. The
+ ACLINT MTIMER device is documented in the RISC-V ACLINT specification found
+ at https://github.com/riscv/riscv-aclint/blob/main/riscv-aclint.adoc.
+
+ The ACLINT MTIMER device directly connects to the M-level timer interrupt
+ lines of various HARTs (or CPUs) so the RISC-V per-HART (or per-CPU) local
+ interrupt controller is the parent interrupt controller for the ACLINT
+ MTIMER device.
+
+ The clock frequency of ACLINT is specified via "timebase-frequency" DT
+ property of "/cpus" DT node. The "timebase-frequency" DT property is
+ described in Documentation/devicetree/bindings/riscv/cpus.yaml
+
+properties:
+ compatible:
+ enum:
+ - riscv,aclint-mtimer
+
+ description:
+ Should be "riscv,aclint-mtimer" or "<vendor>,<chip>-aclint-mtimer".
+
+ reg:
+ description: |
+ Specifies base physical address(s) of the MTIME register and MTIMECMPx
+ registers. The 1st region is the MTIME register base and size. The 2nd
+ region is the MTIMECMPx registers base and size.
+ minItems: 2
+ maxItems: 2

+
+ mtimer,no-64bit-mmio:
+ type: boolean
+ description: If present, the timer does not support 64-bit MMIO accesses
+ for both MTIME and MTIMECMP registers.
