+description: |
+ StarFive's Message-Exchange-Unit (MEU) is a mailbox controller that has 62
+ independent doorbells. Each MEU channel consist of 31 doorbells and consist of
+ a pair of Tx/Rx links that shall communicates with remote processor. The
+ sender set the bit in the SET register to indicate data readiness for the
+ receiver. An interrupt will be raised whenever receiving notification doorbell
+ from remote processor. The receiver will clear the bit in the CLR register
+ upon handling the doorbell notification. The sender should poll the STAT
+ register before starting any transaction to ensure all on-going doorbells are
+ processed.
What is/are the consumer(s) of this mailbox?
Is part of your RPMI implementation?

Cheers,
Conor.

Yes, it would be part of StarFive RPMI implementation.

Regards,
Joshua
