[PATCH 1/2] dt-bindings: phy: Document MT8196 MediaTek PCI-Express Gen4 S-PHY
From: AngeloGioacchino Del Regno
Date: Thu Jul 16 2026 - 11:14:56 EST
This adds bindings for the PCI-Express Gen4 S-PHY found in newer
MediaTek SoCs, such as MT8196 and its variants.
In the current "revision 3", depending on the specific port, this
S-PHY supports up to two lanes of PCI-Express Gen 4 and both EP
and RC modes.
It is not clear whether revisions/versions earlier than 3 have
ever been shipped in any other MediaTek SoC.

+description:
+ The MediaTek PCI-Express Gen4 S-PHY is capable of data serialization
+ and de-serialization with 8, 10, 128 or 130 bits (16GT/s) encoding
+ and decoding, has analog buffers, elastic buffers and mechanisms for
+ receiver detection.
+ This PHY supports link rates of 2.5, 5.0, 6.0 and 16.0 GT/s per-lane
+ in both Root Complex (RC) and End Point (EP) modes, depending on the
+ chosen port.
+ The Digital PHY (PHYD) part adheres to the Intel PIPE (PHY Interface
+ for the PCIe) specification.
