+ST Microelectronics Mailbox Driver
+
+Required properties:
+- compatible : Should be "st,stih407-mailbox"
+- reg : Offset and length of the register set for the device
+- reg-names : Should contain the reg name "mbox-reg".
+- st,name : Name of the mailbox
+- st,mbox-chans : Mbox/channels descriptor data private to each channel.
+ The 4 cells represent the following data:
+ Cell #1 (rx_id) - rx mbox num in an instance.
+ Cell #2 (rx_inst) - rx mbox instance num.
+ Cell #3 (tx_id) - tx mbox num in an instance.
+ Cell #4 (tx_inst) - tx mbox instance num.
+
+ Note that an IP Mailbox is composed by 4 instances and
+ each instance is composed by 32 mailboxes.
+ You define here the configuration of a channel (at
+ framework level).
+
+Optional properties
+- st,mbox-rx : Indicaties if the mailbox can be used as Rx mailbox.
+- st,mbox-rx-id : If a Rx mailbox is affected to a Tx mailbox (to have
+ full-duplex channel), this field indiactes the Id of
+ the Rx mailbox to use.
+- interrupts : Contains the IRQ line for a RX mailbox.
+- interrupt-names : Should contain the interrupt name.
+
+Examples:
+
+mailbox0: mailbox@0 {
+ compatible = "st,stih407-mailbox";
+ #address-cells = <1>;
+ #size-cells = <1>;
+ #mbox-cells = <1>;
+ reg = <0x8f00000 0x1000>;
+ reg-names = "mbox-reg";
+ interrupts = <GIC_SPI 1 IRQ_TYPE_NONE>;
+ interrupt-names = "mb0_irq";
+ st,name = "a9";
+ st,mbox-rx;
+ st,mbox-rx-id = <0>;
+ st,mbox-chans = <0 1 0 1>;
+};
+
+mailbox3: mailbox@3 {
+ compatible = "st,stih407-mailbox";
+ #address-cells = <1>;
+ #size-cells = <1>;
+ #mbox-cells = <1>;
+ reg = <0x8f03000 0x100>;
+ reg-names = "mbox-reg";
+ st,name = "st231_video";
+ st,mbox-rx-id = <0>;
+ st,mbox-chans = <2 1 2 1>;
+};
+
+In this configuration, if you use channel 0 you will have the following
+configuration:
+- "chan0_video" will use mailbox0 as Rx mailbox.
+- "chan0_video" will use instance 1, bit 2 in mailbox0 for rx.
+- "chan0_video" will use instance 1, bit 2 in mailbox3 for tx.
+
+If you declare a channel only for Rx, you have to set magic number 0xff
+for tx_id and tx_instance.
+If you declare a channel only for Tx, you have to set magic number 0xff
+for rx_id and rx_instance.
