[PATCH 1/2] dt-bindings: misc: add binding for Xilinx AXI-Stream FIFO

From: Raiden Lumine

Date: Tue Oct 06 2026 - 07:32:11 EST


The axis-fifo driver's compatible strings were undocumented, flagged
by checkpatch.pl as UNDOCUMENTED_DT_STRING. Add a devicetree binding
document for drivers/staging/axis-fifo, derived from the properties
the driver reads via of_property_read_u32() in axis_fifo_parse_dt().

+title: Xilinx AXI-Stream FIFO v4.1 IP core
+
+maintainers:
+ - Jacob Feder <jacobsfeder@xxxxxxxxx>
+
+description: |
+ This IP core has read and write AXI-Stream FIFOs, the contents of which can
+ be accessed from the AXI4 memory-mapped interface. This is useful for
+ transferring data from a processor into the FPGA fabric. The driver creates
+ a character device that can be read/written to with standard
+ open/read/write/close.
+
+ See Xilinx PG080 document for IP details.
+
+ Currently supports only store-forward mode with a 32-bit
+ AXI4-Lite interface. DOES NOT support:
+ - cut-through mode
+ - AXI4 (non-lite)
