This patch adds the bindings for the Programmable Real-Time Unit
and Industrial Communication Subsystem (PRU-ICSS) present on various
TI SoCs. The IP is present on multiple TI SoC architecture families
including the OMAP architecture SoCs such as AM33xx, AM437x and
AM57xx; and on a Keystone 2 architecture based 66AK2G SoC. It is
also present on the Davinci based OMAPL138 SoCs and K3 architecture
based AM65x SoCs as well (not covered for now). Details have been
added to include bindings for various core sub-modules like the PRU
Cores, the PRUSS Interrupt Controller, and other sub-modules used
for Industrial Communication purposes, covering the MDIO, MII_RT
and the IEP sub-modules. The binding mostly uses standard DT
properties.

+PRU-ICSS SoC Bus Parent Node
+=============================
+This node represents the integration of the PRU-ICSS IP into a SoC, and is
+required for all SoCs. The PRU-ICSS parent nodes need to be defined as child
+nodes of this node.
+
+Required Properties:
+--------------------
+- compatible : should be one of,
+ "ti,am3356-pruss-soc-bus" for AM335x family of SoCs
+ "ti,am4376-pruss-soc-bus" for AM437x family of SoCs
+ "ti,am5728-pruss-soc-bus" for AM57xx family of SoCs
+ "ti,k2g-pruss-soc-bus" for 66AK2G family of SoCs
+- reg : address and size of the PRUSS CFG sub-module registers
+ dictating the interconnect configuration
I haven't looked into Tony's suggestion of using ti-sysc yet, so this may be a
moot point, but how will this work with AM18xx that does not have a PRUSS CFG
register? It seems to me that reg here should be the address and size of the
entire PRUSS IP block and the CFG register should be a syscon node or something
like that.
+- #address-cells : should be 1
+- #size-cells : should be 1
+- ranges : standard ranges definition
+
...
+
+PRUSS INTC Child Node
+======================
+Each PRUSS has a single interrupt controller instance that is common to both
+the PRU cores. Each interrupt controller can detect 64 input events which are
+then mapped to 10 possible output interrupts through two levels of mapping. The
+input events can be triggered by either the PRUs and/or various other PRUSS
+internal and external peripherals. The first 2 output interrupts are fed
+exclusively to the internal PRU cores, with the remaining 8 connected to
+external interrupt controllers including the MPU.
FYI, on AM18xx, there is a PRUSSEVTSEL bit in CFGCHIP3[3] (already a syscon node
in the device tree) that allows selecting one of two groups of 32 input events
out of this group of 64. This is perhaps getting out of the scope of this patch
series, but I just want to make sure we end up with something that can be easily
extended for this case. For example, I was thinking that this binding could be
modified so that #interrupt-cells could be 1 or 2. If it is 2, then the first
cell specifies the PRUSSEVTSEL value and the second value is the event number.
+
+Required Properties:
+--------------------
+- compatible : should be one of,
+ "ti,am3356-pruss-intc" for AM335x family of SoCs
+ "ti,am4376-pruss-intc" for AM437x family of SoCs
+ "ti,am5728-pruss-intc" for AM57xx family of SoCs
+ "ti,k2g-pruss-intc" for 66AK2G family of SoCs
+- reg : base address and size for the PRUSS INTC sub-module
+- reg-names : should contain the string "intc"
+- interrupt-controller : mark this node as an interrupt controller
+- #interrupt-cells : should be 1. Client users shall use the PRU System
+ event number (the interrupt source that the client
+ is interested in) as the value of the interrupts
+ property in their node
+
+
+PRU Child Node
+===============
+Each PRUSS has dual PRU cores, each represented by a PRU child node. Each node
+can optionally be rendered inactive by using the standard DT string property,
+"status".
+
+Required Properties:
+--------------------
+- compatible : should be
+ "ti,am3356-pru" for AM335x family of SoCs
+ "ti,am4376-pru" for AM437x family of SoCs
+ "ti,am5728-pru" for AM57xx family of SoCs
+ "ti,k2g-pru" for 66AK2G family of SoCs
+- reg : base address and size for each of the 3 sub-module address
+ spaces as mentioned in reg-names, and in the same order as
+ the reg-names
+- reg-names : should contain each of the following 3 names, the binding is
+ agnostic of the order of these reg-names
+ "iram" for Instruction RAM,
+ "control" for the CTRL sub-module registers,
+ "debug" for the Debug sub-module registers,
+- firmware-name : should contain the name of the default firmware image file
+ located on the firmware search path
What does the default firmware do? It doesn't seem like this could be useful
since the PRU doesn't have a definite purpose.
