[PATCH v7 01/13] dt-bindings: phy: Add zx297520v3 USB phy documentation

From: Stefan Dösinger

Date: Thu Jul 16 2026 - 17:36:25 EST


This binding will be used as a subnode of topcrm, which will be added in
the next patch.

Why is this a child node and not #phy-cells added to topcrm itself,
like clocks and resets as writing-bindings.rst suggests? Because
of_phy_provider_register checks if the of_node the PHY provider is added
to belongs to the device or is a child of the device, so I can't put the
PHY driver into an MFD (or AUX) child without its own node.

How do I handle examples? It would be identical to the example in
topcrm. The example needs the reset defines from the next patch in
either case.

+description: |
+ This PHY is found on zx297520v3 boards. It has no configurability on its own,
+ but it does require a correct reset and wait sequence to initialize. It can
+ provide interrupt notification when USB is connected and disconnected.
+
+ The phy is a component of the board's topcrm controller. The hardware needs to
+ be declared as a child node of the zte,zx297520v3-topcrm node.
+
+ The register space and IRQs always account for two PHYs: One USB 2.0 OTG phy
+ and a HSIC PHY. Not all boards have both. If one is missing, the corresponding
+ ready flag will never be set.
+
+ The "include/dt-bindings/phy/phy-zte-zx297520v3-usb.h" header contains the
+ definition for the PHY indices.
