[PATCH V4 0/5] virtio: Add virtio-device bindings

From: Viresh Kumar
Date: Tue Jul 27 2021 - 01:24:02 EST


Hi,

Currently the DT only provides support for following node types for virtio-mmio
nodes:

virtio_mmio@a000000 {
dma-coherent;
interrupts = <0x00 0x10 0x01>;
reg = <0x00 0xa000000 0x00 0x200>;
compatible = "virtio,mmio";
};

Here, each virtio-mmio corresponds to a virtio-device. But there is no way for
other users in the DT to show their dependency on virtio devices.

This patchset provides that support.

The first patch adds virtio-device bindings to allow for device sub-nodes to be
present and the second patch updates the virtio core to update the of_node.

Other patches add bindings for i2c and gpio devices.

Tested on x86 with qemu for arm64.

V3->V4:
- The binding is named "virtio,deviceXXXXXXXX" now.
- The virtio binding doesn't restrict the node names anymore.
- The i2c/gpio nodes are named i2c and gpio now.
- Dropped including gpio.yaml.
- Updated code to match the new binding name.
- Use "type: object" in additional-property.

V2/2.1->V3:
- Added review-tags from Arnd and Wolfram.
- Only the 5th patch changed otherwise:
- Use of_device_is_compatible() instead of keeping a list of devices.
- Use snprintf (with BUG_ON on return value) to create the compatible string,
whose length is fixed using "virtio,XXXXXXXX".
- Use dev_of_node().

V1->V2:
- The changes (both binding and code) are made at virtio level, instead of
virtio-mmio. This allows the same to be used by all device types, irrespective
of the transport mechanism.

- Dropped the reg property and used compatible in the form "virtio,<DID>".

- Dropped dt-bindings/virtio/virtio_ids.h.

- Add a patch to sync virtio-ids from spec, required for the last patch.
