[PATCH v7 [RESEND] 2/2] dt-bindings: introduce Command DB for QCOM SoCs
From: Lina Iyer
Date: Fri Apr 06 2018 - 11:15:03 EST
From: Mahesh Sivasubramanian <msivasub@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
Command DB provides information on shared resources like clocks,
regulators etc., probed at boot by the remote subsytem and made
available in shared memory.

Changes in v7:
- Fix description of 'reg' property
Changes in v6:
- Move to bindings/reserved-memory
- Remove indirection address and use only the actual reserved
memory
Changes in v4:
- Fix unwanted capitalization
- Add reg property

+Command DB
+---------
+
+Command DB is a database that provides a mapping between resource key and the
+resource address for a system resource managed by a remote processor. The data
+is stored in a shared memory region and is loaded by the remote processor.
+
+Some of the Qualcomm Technologies Inc SoC's have hardware accelerators for
+controlling shared resources. Depending on the board configuration the shared
+resource properties may change. These properties are dynamically probed by the
+remote processor and made available in the shared memory.
+
+The bindings for Command DB is specified in the reserved-memory section in
+devicetree. The devicetree representation of the command DB driver should be:
+
+Properties:
+- compatible:
+ Usage: required
+ Value type: <string>
+ Definition: Should be "qcom,cmd-db"
+
+- reg:
+ Usage: required
+ Value type: <prop encoded array>
+ Definition: The register address that points to the actual location of
+ the Command DB in memory.
+
+Example:
+
+ reserved-memory {
+ [...]
+ qcom,cmd-db@85fe0000 {
+ reg = <0x0 0x85fe0000 0x0 0x20000>;
+ compatible = "qcom,cmd-db";
+ };
+ };
