Hi Pavel,

Thanks for sharing your time on reviewing it. Please see my answers inline.

+Device tree configuration for PECI buses on the AST24XX and AST25XX SoCs.

Are these SoCs x86-based?


Yes, these are ARM SoCs. Please see Andrew's answer as well.

+Required properties:
+- compatible
+ "aspeed,ast2400-peci" or "aspeed,ast2500-peci"
+ - aspeed,ast2400-peci: Aspeed AST2400 family PECI controller
+ - aspeed,ast2500-peci: Aspeed AST2500 family PECI controller
+
+- reg
+ Should contain PECI registers location and length.

Other dts documents put it on one line, reg: Should contain ...

+- clock_frequency
+ Should contain the operation frequency of PECI hardware module.
+ 187500 ~ 24000000

specify this is Hz?


I'll add a description. Thanks!

+- rd-sampling-point
+ Read sampling point selection. The whole period of a bit time will be
+ divided into 16 time frames. This value will determine which time frame
+ this controller will sample PECI signal for data read back. Usually in
+ the middle of a bit time is the best.

English? "This value will determine when this controller"?


Could I change it like below?:

"This value will determine in which time frame this controller samples PECI signal for data read back"

+ 0 ~ 15 (default: 8)
+
+- cmd_timeout_ms
+ Command timeout in units of ms.
+ 1 ~ 60000 (default: 1000)
+
+Example:
+ peci: peci@1e78b000 {
+ compatible = "simple-bus";
+ #address-cells = <1>;
+ #size-cells = <1>;
+ ranges = <0x0 0x1e78b000 0x60>;
+
+ peci0: peci-bus@0 {
+ compatible = "aspeed,ast2500-peci";
+ reg = <0x0 0x60>;
+ #address-cells = <1>;
+ #size-cells = <0>;
+ interrupts = <15>;
+ clocks = <&clk_clkin>;
+ clock-frequency = <24000000>;
+ msg-timing-nego = <1>;
+ addr-timing-nego = <1>;
+ rd-sampling-point = <8>;
+ cmd-timeout-ms = <1000>;
+ };
+ };
