Much needed refinement of mpc5200 device tree binding specifications. Short list: - drop mpc52xx designator; only two supported chips exist, 5200 and 5200b. It's premature to refer to them as '52xx'. - Specify optional 'model' and 'revision' properties in the soc5200 node - Specify reqiured 'cell-index' property to identify between multiple SOC devices of the same type. (Useful for arbitrating shared register access) - Specify optional 'port-number' property for adjusting the logical serial port assignments. - Specify optional 'has-wdt' property for gpt0 node. - Add system-frequency property to soc5200 node Signed-off-by: Grant Likely <grant.likely@secretlab.ca> Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>

I - Introduction
|
|
================
|
|
Boards supported by the arch/powerpc architecture require device tree be
|
|
passed by the boot loader to the kernel at boot time. The device tree
|
|
describes what devices are present on the board and how they are
|
|
connected. The device tree can either be passed as a binary blob (as
|
|
described in Documentation/powerpc/booting-without-of.txt), or passed
|
|
by Open Firmare (IEEE 1275) compatible firmware using an OF compatible
|
|
client interface API.
|
|
|
|
This document specifies the requirements on the device-tree for mpc5200
|
|
based boards. These requirements are above and beyond the details
|
|
specified in either the OpenFirmware spec or booting-without-of.txt
|
|
|
|
All new mpc5200-based boards are expected to match this document. In
|
|
cases where this document is not sufficient to support a new board port,
|
|
this document should be updated as part of adding the new board support.
|
|
|
|
II - Philosophy
|
|
===============
|
|
The core of this document is naming convention. The whole point of
|
|
defining this convention is to reduce or eliminate the number of
|
|
special cases required to support a 5200 board. If all 5200 boards
|
|
follow the same convention, then generic 5200 support code will work
|
|
rather than coding special cases for each new board.
|
|
|
|
This section tries to capture the thought process behind why the naming
|
|
convention is what it is.
|
|
|
|
1. names
|
|
---------
|
|
There is strong convention/requirements already established for children
|
|
of the root node. 'cpus' describes the processor cores, 'memory'
|
|
describes memory, and 'chosen' provides boot configuration. Other nodes
|
|
are added to describe devices attached to the processor local bus.
|
|
|
|
Following convention already established with other system-on-chip
|
|
processors, 5200 device trees should use the name 'soc5200' for the
|
|
parent node of on chip devices, and the root node should be its parent.
|
|
|
|
Child nodes are typically named after the configured function. ie.
|
|
the FEC node is named 'ethernet', and a PSC in uart mode is named 'serial'.
|
|
|
|
2. device_type property
|
|
-----------------------
|
|
similar to the node name convention above; the device_type reflects the
|
|
configured function of a device. ie. 'serial' for a uart and 'spi' for
|
|
an spi controller. However, while node names *should* reflect the
|
|
configured function, device_type *must* match the configured function
|
|
exactly.
|
|
|
|
3. compatible property
|
|
----------------------
|
|
Since device_type isn't enough to match devices to drivers, there also
|
|
needs to be a naming convention for the compatible property. Compatible
|
|
is an list of device descriptions sorted from specific to generic. For
|
|
the mpc5200, the required format for each compatible value is
|
|
<chip>-<device>[-<mode>]. The OS should be able to match a device driver
|
|
to the device based solely on the compatible value. If two drivers
|
|
match on the compatible list; the 'most compatible' driver should be
|
|
selected.
|
|
|
|
The split between the MPC5200 and the MPC5200B leaves a bit of a
|
|
connundrum. How should the compatible property be set up to provide
|
|
maximum compatability information; but still acurately describe the
|
|
chip? For the MPC5200; the answer is easy. Most of the SoC devices
|
|
originally appeared on the MPC5200. Since they didn't exist anywhere
|
|
else; the 5200 compatible properties will contain only one item;
|
|
"mpc5200-<device>".
|
|
|
|
The 5200B is almost the same as the 5200, but not quite. It fixes
|
|
silicon bugs and it adds a small number of enhancements. Most of the
|
|
devices either provide exactly the same interface as on the 5200. A few
|
|
devices have extra functions but still have a backwards compatible mode.
|
|
To express this infomation as completely as possible, 5200B device trees
|
|
should have two items in the compatible list;
|
|
"mpc5200b-<device>\0mpc5200-<device>". It is *strongly* recommended
|
|
that 5200B device trees follow this convention (instead of only listing
|
|
the base mpc5200 item).
|
|
|
|
If another chip appear on the market with one of the mpc5200 SoC
|
|
devices, then the compatible list should include mpc5200-<device>.
|
|
|
|
ie. ethernet on mpc5200: compatible = "mpc5200-ethernet"
|
|
ethernet on mpc5200b: compatible = "mpc5200b-ethernet\0mpc5200-ethernet"
|
|
|
|
Modal devices, like PSCs, also append the configured function to the
|
|
end of the compatible field. ie. A PSC in i2s mode would specify
|
|
"mpc5200-psc-i2s", not "mpc5200-i2s". This convention is chosen to
|
|
avoid naming conflicts with non-psc devices providing the same
|
|
function. For example, "mpc5200-spi" and "mpc5200-psc-spi" describe
|
|
the mpc5200 simple spi device and a PSC spi mode respectively.
|
|
|
|
If the soc device is more generic and present on other SOCs, the
|
|
compatible property can specify the more generic device type also.
|
|
|
|
ie. mscan: compatible = "mpc5200-mscan\0fsl,mscan";
|
|
|
|
At the time of writing, exact chip may be either 'mpc5200' or
|
|
'mpc5200b'.
|
|
|
|
Device drivers should always try to match as generically as possible.
|
|
|
|
III - Structure
|
|
===============
|
|
The device tree for an mpc5200 board follows the structure defined in
|
|
booting-without-of.txt with the following additional notes:
|
|
|
|
0) the root node
|
|
----------------
|
|
Typical root description node; see booting-without-of
|
|
|
|
1) The cpus node
|
|
----------------
|
|
The cpus node follows the basic layout described in booting-without-of.
|
|
The bus-frequency property holds the XLB bus frequency
|
|
The clock-frequency property holds the core frequency
|
|
|
|
2) The memory node
|
|
------------------
|
|
Typical memory description node; see booting-without-of.
|
|
|
|
3) The soc5200 node
|
|
-------------------
|
|
This node describes the on chip SOC peripherals. Every mpc5200 based
|
|
board will have this node, and as such there is a common naming
|
|
convention for SOC devices.
|
|
|
|
Required properties:
|
|
name type description
|
|
---- ---- -----------
|
|
device_type string must be "soc"
|
|
ranges int should be <0 baseaddr baseaddr+10000>
|
|
reg int must be <baseaddr 10000>
|
|
compatible string mpc5200: "mpc5200-soc"
|
|
mpc5200b: "mpc5200b-soc\0mpc5200-soc"
|
|
system-frequency int Fsystem frequency; source of all
|
|
other clocks.
|
|
bus-frequency int IPB bus frequency in HZ. Clock rate
|
|
used by most of the soc devices.
|
|
#interrupt-cells int must be <3>.
|
|
|
|
Recommended properties:
|
|
name type description
|
|
---- ---- -----------
|
|
model string Exact model of the chip;
|
|
ie: model="fsl,mpc5200"
|
|
revision string Silicon revision of chip
|
|
ie: revision="M08A"
|
|
|
|
The 'model' and 'revision' properties are *strongly* recommended. Having
|
|
them presence acts as a bit of a safety net for working around as yet
|
|
undiscovered bugs on one version of silicon. For example, device drivers
|
|
can use the model and revision properties to decide if a bug fix should
|
|
be turned on.
|
|
|
|
4) soc5200 child nodes
|
|
----------------------
|
|
Any on chip SOC devices available to Linux must appear as soc5200 child nodes.
|
|
|
|
Note: The tables below show the value for the mpc5200. A mpc5200b device
|
|
tree should use the "mpc5200b-<device>\0mpc5200-<device> form.
|
|
|
|
Required soc5200 child nodes:
|
|
name device_type compatible Description
|
|
---- ----------- ---------- -----------
|
|
cdm@<addr> cdm mpc5200-cmd Clock Distribution
|
|
pic@<addr> interrupt-controller mpc5200-pic need an interrupt
|
|
controller to boot
|
|
bestcomm@<addr> dma-controller mpc5200-bestcomm 5200 pic also requires
|
|
the bestcomm device
|
|
|
|
Recommended soc5200 child nodes; populate as needed for your board
|
|
name device_type compatible Description
|
|
---- ----------- ---------- -----------
|
|
gpt@<addr> gpt mpc5200-gpt General purpose timers
|
|
rtc@<addr> rtc mpc5200-rtc Real time clock
|
|
mscan@<addr> mscan mpc5200-mscan CAN bus controller
|
|
pci@<addr> pci mpc5200-pci PCI bridge
|
|
serial@<addr> serial mpc5200-psc-uart PSC in serial mode
|
|
i2s@<addr> sound mpc5200-psc-i2s PSC in i2s mode
|
|
ac97@<addr> sound mpc5200-psc-ac97 PSC in ac97 mode
|
|
spi@<addr> spi mpc5200-psc-spi PSC in spi mode
|
|
irda@<addr> irda mpc5200-psc-irda PSC in IrDA mode
|
|
spi@<addr> spi mpc5200-spi MPC5200 spi device
|
|
ethernet@<addr> network mpc5200-fec MPC5200 ethernet device
|
|
ata@<addr> ata mpc5200-ata IDE ATA interface
|
|
i2c@<addr> i2c mpc5200-i2c I2C controller
|
|
usb@<addr> usb-ohci-be mpc5200-ohci,ohci-be USB controller
|
|
xlb@<addr> xlb mpc5200-xlb XLB arbritrator
|
|
|
|
Important child node properties
|
|
name type description
|
|
---- ---- -----------
|
|
cell-index int When multiple devices are present, is the
|
|
index of the device in the hardware (ie. There
|
|
are 6 PSC on the 5200 numbered PSC1 to PSC6)
|
|
PSC1 has 'cell-index = <0>'
|
|
PSC4 has 'cell-index = <3>'
|
|
|
|
5) General Purpose Timer nodes (child of soc5200 node)
|
|
On the mpc5200 and 5200b, GPT0 has a watchdog timer function. If the board
|
|
design supports the internal wdt, then the device node for GPT0 should
|
|
include the empty property 'has-wdt'.
|
|
|
|
6) PSC nodes (child of soc5200 node)
|
|
PSC nodes can define the optional 'port-number' property to force assignment
|
|
order of serial ports. For example, PSC5 might be physically connected to
|
|
the port labeled 'COM1' and PSC1 wired to 'COM1'. In this case, PSC5 would
|
|
have a "port-number = <0>" property, and PSC1 would have "port-number = <1>".
|
|
|
|
PSC in i2s mode: The mpc5200 and mpc5200b PSCs are not compatible when in
|
|
i2s mode. An 'mpc5200b-psc-i2s' node cannot include 'mpc5200-psc-i2s' in the
|
|
compatible field.
|
|
|
|
IV - Extra Notes
|
|
================
|
|
|
|
1. Interrupt mapping
|
|
--------------------
|
|
The mpc5200 pic driver splits hardware IRQ numbers into two levels. The
|
|
split reflects the layout of the PIC hardware itself, which groups
|
|
interrupts into one of three groups; CRIT, MAIN or PERP. Also, the
|
|
Bestcomm dma engine has it's own set of interrupt sources which are
|
|
cascaded off of peripheral interrupt 0, which the driver interprets as a
|
|
fourth group, SDMA.
|
|
|
|
The interrupts property for device nodes using the mpc5200 pic consists
|
|
of three cells; <L1 L2 level>
|
|
|
|
L1 := [CRIT=0, MAIN=1, PERP=2, SDMA=3]
|
|
L2 := interrupt number; directly mapped from the value in the
|
|
"ICTL PerStat, MainStat, CritStat Encoded Register"
|
|
level := [LEVEL_HIGH=0, EDGE_RISING=1, EDGE_FALLING=2, LEVEL_LOW=3]
|
|
|
|
2. Shared registers
|
|
-------------------
|
|
Some SoC devices share registers between them. ie. the i2c devices use
|
|
a single clock control register, and almost all device are affected by
|
|
the port_config register. Devices which need to manipulate shared regs
|
|
should look to the parent SoC node. The soc node is responsible
|
|
for arbitrating all shared register access.
|
