[PATCH v3 1/4] dt-bindings: add multidomain support to i.MX GPC DT binding

Fri Feb 17 11:02:43 PST 2017


This adds a new binding for the Freescale i.MX GPC block, which allows
to describe multiple power domains in a more natural way. The driver
will continue to support the old binding for existing DTBs, but new
features like the additional domains present on i.MX6SX will only be
usable with the new binding.

v2:
- use 'power-supply' as name for the domain supply
- clarify that 'pgc' is a node, not a property

 Freescale i.MX General Power Controller
 =======================================
 
-The i.MX6Q General Power Control (GPC) block contains DVFS load tracking
-counters and Power Gating Control (PGC) for the CPU and PU (GPU/VPU) power
-domains.
+The i.MX6 General Power Control (GPC) block contains DVFS load tracking
+counters and Power Gating Control (PGC).
 
 Required properties:
 - compatible: Should be "fsl,imx6q-gpc" or "fsl,imx6sl-gpc"
 - reg: should be register base and length as documented in the
   datasheet
-- interrupts: Should contain GPC interrupt request 1
-- pu-supply: Link to the LDO regulator powering the PU power domain
-- clocks: Clock phandles to devices in the PU power domain that need
-	  to be enabled during domain power-up for reset propagation.
-- #power-domain-cells: Should be 1, see below:
+- interrupts: Should contain one interrupt specifier for the GPC interrupt
+- clocks: Must contain an entry for each entry in clock-names.
+  See Documentation/devicetree/bindings/clocks/clock-bindings.txt for details.
+- clock-names: Must include the following entries:

-The gpc node is a power-controller as documented by the generic power domain
-bindings in Documentation/devicetree/bindings/power/power_domain.txt.
+The power domains are generic power domain providers as documented in
+Documentation/devicetree/bindings/power/power_domain.txt. They are described as
+subnodes of the power gating controller 'pgc' node of the GPC and should
+contain the following:
+
+Required properties:
+- reg: the DOMAIN_INDEX as used by the client devices to refer to this
+  power domain
+  The following DOMAIN_INDEX values are valid for i.MX6Q:
+  ARM_DOMAIN     0
+  PU_DOMAIN      1
+  The following additional DOMAIN_INDEX value is valid for i.MX6SL:
+  DISPLAY_DOMAIN 2
+
+- #power-domain-cells: Should be 0
+
+Optional properties:
+- clocks: a number of phandles to clocks that need to be enabled during domain
+  power-up sequencing to ensure reset propagation into devices located inside
+  this power domain
+- power-supply: a phandle to the regulator powering this domain
