Hisilicon Hi6220 Mailbox Driver =============================== Hisilicon Hi6220 mailbox supports up to 32 channels. Each channel is unidirectional with a maximum message size of 8 words. I/O is performed using register access (there is no DMA) and the cell raises an interrupt when messages are received. Mailbox Device Node: ==================== Required properties: -------------------- - compatible: Shall be "hisilicon,hi6220-mbox" - reg: Contains the mailbox register address range (base address and length); the first item is for IPC registers, the second item is shared buffer for slots. - #mbox-cells: Common mailbox binding property to identify the number of cells required for the mailbox specifier. Must be 3. <&phandle slot_id dst_irq ack_irq> phandle: Label name of mailbox controller slot_id: Slot id used either for TX or RX dst_irq: IRQ identifier index number which used by MCU ack_irq: IRQ identifier index number with generating a TX/RX interrupt to application processor, mailbox driver uses it to acknowledge interrupt - interrupts: Contains the interrupt information for the mailbox device. The format is dependent on which interrupt controller the SoCs use. Optional Properties: -------------------- - hi6220,mbox-tx-noirq: Property of MCU firmware's feature, so mailbox driver use this flag to ask MCU to enable "automatic idle flag" mode or IRQ generated mode to acknowledge a TX completion. Example: -------- mailbox: mailbox@f7510000 { compatible = "hisilicon,hi6220-mbox"; reg = <0x0 0xf7510000 0x0 0x1000>, /* IPC_S */ <0x0 0x06dff800 0x0 0x0800>; /* Mailbox */ interrupt-parent = <&gic>; interrupts = <GIC_SPI 94 IRQ_TYPE_LEVEL_HIGH>; #mbox-cells = <3>; }; Mailbox client =============== Required properties: -------------------- - compatible: Many (See the client docs). - mboxes: Standard property to specify a Mailbox (See ./mailbox.txt) Cells must match 'mbox-cells' (See Mailbox Device Node above). Optional Properties: -------------------- - mbox-names: Name given to channels seen in the 'mboxes' property. Example: -------- stub_clock: stub_clock { compatible = "hisilicon,hi6220-stub-clk"; hisilicon,hi6220-clk-sram = <&sram>; #clock-cells = <1>; mbox-names = "mbox-tx", "mbox-rx"; mboxes = <&mailbox 1 0 11>, <&mailbox 0 1 10>; };
