102 Revision Information
103 ====================
104
105 May 18, 2005: Rev 0.1 - Initial draft, no chapter III yet.
106
107 May 19, 2005: Rev 0.2 - Add chapter III and bits & pieces here or
108 clarifies the fact that a lot of things are
109 optional, the kernel only requires a very
110 small device tree, though it is encouraged
111 to provide an as complete one as possible.
112
113 May 24, 2005: Rev 0.3 - Precise that DT block has to be in RAM
114 - Misc fixes
115 - Define version 3 and new format version 16
116 for the DT block (version 16 needs kernel
117 patches, will be fwd separately).
118 String block now has a size, and full path
119 is replaced by unit name for more
120 compactness.
121 linux,phandle is made optional, only nodes
122 that are referenced by other nodes need it.
123 "name" property is now automatically
124 deduced from the unit name
125
126 June 1, 2005: Rev 0.4 - Correct confusion between OF_DT_END and
127 OF_DT_END_NODE in structure definition.
128 - Change version 16 format to always align
129 property data to 4 bytes. Since tokens are
130 already aligned, that means no specific
131 required alignment between property size
132 and property data. The old style variable
133 alignment would make it impossible to do
134 "simple" insertion of properties using
135 memmove (thanks Milton for
136 noticing). Updated kernel patch as well
137 - Correct a few more alignment constraints
138 - Add a chapter about the device-tree
139 compiler and the textural representation of
140 the tree that can be "compiled" by dtc.
141
142 November 21, 2005: Rev 0.5
143 - Additions/generalizations for 32-bit
144 - Changed to reflect the new arch/powerpc
145 structure
146 - Added chapter VI
147
148
149 ToDo:
150 - Add some definitions of interrupt tree (simple/complex)
151 - Add some definitions for PCI host bridges
152 - Add some common address format examples
153 - Add definitions for standard properties and "compatible"
154 names for cells that are not already defined by the existing
155 OF spec.
156 - Compare FSL SOC use of PCI to standard and make sure no new
157 node definition required.
158 - Add more information about node definitions for SOC devices
159 that currently have no standard, like the FSL CPM.

162 I - Introduction
163 ================
164
165 During the recent development of the Linux/ppc64 kernel, and more
166 specifically, the addition of new platform types outside of the old
167 IBM pSeries/iSeries pair, it was decided to enforce some strict rules
168 regarding the kernel entry and bootloader <-> kernel interfaces, in
169 order to avoid the degeneration that had become the ppc32 kernel entry
170 point and the way a new platform should be added to the kernel. The
171 legacy iSeries platform breaks those rules as it predates this scheme,
172 but no new board support will be accepted in the main tree that
173 doesn't follows them properly. In addition, since the advent of the
174 arch/powerpc merged architecture for ppc32 and ppc64, new 32-bit
175 platforms and 32-bit platforms which move into arch/powerpc will be
176 required to use these rules as well.
177
178 The main requirement that will be defined in more detail below is
179 the presence of a device-tree whose format is defined after Open
180 Firmware specification. However, in order to make life easier
181 to embedded board vendors, the kernel doesn't require the device-tree
182 to represent every device in the system and only requires some nodes
183 and properties to be present. This will be described in detail in
184 section III, but, for example, the kernel does not require you to
185 create a node for every PCI device in the system. It is a requirement
186 to have a node for PCI host bridges in order to provide interrupt
187 routing informations and memory/IO ranges, among others. It is also
188 recommended to define nodes for on chip devices and other busses that
189 don't specifically fit in an existing OF specification. This creates a
190 great flexibility in the way the kernel can then probe those and match
191 drivers to device, without having to hard code all sorts of tables. It
192 also makes it more flexible for board vendors to do minor hardware
193 upgrades without significantly impacting the kernel code or cluttering
194 it with special cases.
195
196
197 1) Entry point for arch/powerpc
198 -------------------------------
199
200 There is one and one single entry point to the kernel, at the start
201 of the kernel image. That entry point supports two calling
202 conventions:
203
204 a) Boot from Open Firmware. If your firmware is compatible
205 with Open Firmware (IEEE 1275) or provides an OF compatible
206 client interface API (support for "interpret" callback of
207 forth words isn't required), you can enter the kernel with:
208
209 r5 : OF callback pointer as defined by IEEE 1275
210 bindings to powerpc. Only the 32-bit client interface
211 is currently supported
212
213 r3, r4 : address & length of an initrd if any or 0
214
215 The MMU is either on or off; the kernel will run the
216 trampoline located in arch/powerpc/kernel/prom_init.c to
217 extract the device-tree and other information from open
218 firmware and build a flattened device-tree as described
219 in b). prom_init() will then re-enter the kernel using
220 the second method. This trampoline code runs in the
221 context of the firmware, which is supposed to handle all
222 exceptions during that time.
223
224 b) Direct entry with a flattened device-tree block. This entry
225 point is called by a) after the OF trampoline and can also be
226 called directly by a bootloader that does not support the Open
227 Firmware client interface. It is also used by "kexec" to
228 implement "hot" booting of a new kernel from a previous
229 running one. This method is what I will describe in more
230 details in this document, as method a) is simply standard Open
231 Firmware, and thus should be implemented according to the
232 various standard documents defining it and its binding to the
233 PowerPC platform. The entry point definition then becomes:
234
235 r3 : physical pointer to the device-tree block
236 (defined in chapter II) in RAM
237
238 r4 : physical pointer to the kernel itself. This is
239 used by the assembly code to properly disable the MMU
240 in case you are entering the kernel with MMU enabled
241 and a non-1:1 mapping.
242
243 r5 : NULL (as to differentiate with method a)
244
245 Note about SMP entry: Either your firmware puts your other
246 CPUs in some sleep loop or spin loop in ROM where you can get
247 them out via a soft reset or some other means, in which case
248 you don't need to care, or you'll have to enter the kernel
249 with all CPUs. The way to do that with method b) will be
250 described in a later revision of this document.
251
252
253 2) Board support
254 ----------------
255
256 64-bit kernels:
257
258 Board supports (platforms) are not exclusive config options. An
259 arbitrary set of board supports can be built in a single kernel
260 image. The kernel will "know" what set of functions to use for a
261 given platform based on the content of the device-tree. Thus, you
262 should:
263
264 a) add your platform support as a _boolean_ option in
265 arch/powerpc/Kconfig, following the example of PPC_PSERIES,
266 PPC_PMAC and PPC_MAPLE. The later is probably a good
267 example of a board support to start from.
268
269 b) create your main platform file as
270 "arch/powerpc/platforms/myplatform/myboard_setup.c" and add it
271 to the Makefile under the condition of your CONFIG_
272 option. This file will define a structure of type "ppc_md"
273 containing the various callbacks that the generic code will
274 use to get to your platform specific code
275
276 c) Add a reference to your "ppc_md" structure in the
277 "machines" table in arch/powerpc/kernel/setup_64.c if you are
278 a 64-bit platform.
279
280 d) request and get assigned a platform number (see PLATFORM_*
281 constants in include/asm-powerpc/processor.h
282
283 32-bit embedded kernels:
284
285 Currently, board support is essentially an exclusive config option.
286 The kernel is configured for a single platform. Part of the reason
287 for this is to keep kernels on embedded systems small and efficient;
288 part of this is due to the fact the code is already that way. In the
289 future, a kernel may support multiple platforms, but only if the
290 platforms feature the same core architecture. A single kernel build
291 cannot support both configurations with Book E and configurations
292 with classic Powerpc architectures.
293
294 32-bit embedded platforms that are moved into arch/powerpc using a
295 flattened device tree should adopt the merged tree practice of
296 setting ppc_md up dynamically, even though the kernel is currently
297 built with support for only a single platform at a time. This allows
298 unification of the setup code, and will make it easier to go to a
299 multiple-platform-support model in the future.
300
301 NOTE: I believe the above will be true once Ben's done with the merge
302 of the boot sequences.... someone speak up if this is wrong!
303
304 To add a 32-bit embedded platform support, follow the instructions
305 for 64-bit platforms above, with the exception that the Kconfig
306 option should be set up such that the kernel builds exclusively for
307 the platform selected. The processor type for the platform should
308 enable another config option to select the specific board
309 supported.
310
311 NOTE: If Ben doesn't merge the setup files, may need to change this to
312 point to setup_32.c
313
314
315 I will describe later the boot process and various callbacks that
316 your platform should implement.
317
318
319 II - The DT block format
320 ========================
321
322
323 This chapter defines the actual format of the flattened device-tree
324 passed to the kernel. The actual content of it and kernel requirements
325 are described later. You can find example of code manipulating that
326 format in various places, including arch/powerpc/kernel/prom_init.c
327 which will generate a flattened device-tree from the Open Firmware
328 representation, or the fs2dt utility which is part of the kexec tools
329 which will generate one from a filesystem representation. It is
330 expected that a bootloader like uboot provides a bit more support,
331 that will be discussed later as well.
332
333 Note: The block has to be in main memory. It has to be accessible in
334 both real mode and virtual mode with no mapping other than main
335 memory. If you are writing a simple flash bootloader, it should copy
336 the block to RAM before passing it to the kernel.
337
338
339 1) Header
340 ---------
341
342 The kernel is entered with r3 pointing to an area of memory that is
343 roughly described in include/asm-powerpc/prom.h by the structure
344 boot_param_header:
345
346 struct boot_param_header {
347 u32 magic; /* magic word OF_DT_HEADER */
348 u32 totalsize; /* total size of DT block */
349 u32 off_dt_struct; /* offset to structure */
350 u32 off_dt_strings; /* offset to strings */
351 u32 off_mem_rsvmap; /* offset to memory reserve map
352 */
353 u32 version; /* format version */
354 u32 last_comp_version; /* last compatible version */
355
356 /* version 2 fields below */
357 u32 boot_cpuid_phys; /* Which physical CPU id we're
358 booting on */
359 /* version 3 fields below */
360 u32 size_dt_strings; /* size of the strings block */
361
362 /* version 17 fields below */
363 u32 size_dt_struct; /* size of the DT structure block */
364 };
365
366 Along with the constants:
367
368 /* Definitions used by the flattened device tree */
369 #define OF_DT_HEADER 0xd00dfeed /* 4: version,
370 4: total size */
371 #define OF_DT_BEGIN_NODE 0x1 /* Start node: full name
372 */
373 #define OF_DT_END_NODE 0x2 /* End node */
374 #define OF_DT_PROP 0x3 /* Property: name off,
375 size, content */
376 #define OF_DT_END 0x9
377
378 All values in this header are in big endian format, the various
379 fields in this header are defined more precisely below. All
380 "offset" values are in bytes from the start of the header; that is
381 from the value of r3.
382
383 - magic
384
385 This is a magic value that "marks" the beginning of the
386 device-tree block header. It contains the value 0xd00dfeed and is
387 defined by the constant OF_DT_HEADER
388
389 - totalsize
390
391 This is the total size of the DT block including the header. The
392 "DT" block should enclose all data structures defined in this
393 chapter (who are pointed to by offsets in this header). That is,
394 the device-tree structure, strings, and the memory reserve map.
395
396 - off_dt_struct
397
398 This is an offset from the beginning of the header to the start
399 of the "structure" part the device tree. (see 2) device tree)
400
401 - off_dt_strings
402
403 This is an offset from the beginning of the header to the start
404 of the "strings" part of the device-tree
405
406 - off_mem_rsvmap
407
408 This is an offset from the beginning of the header to the start
409 of the reserved memory map. This map is a list of pairs of 64-
410 bit integers. Each pair is a physical address and a size. The
411 list is terminated by an entry of size 0. This map provides the
412 kernel with a list of physical memory areas that are "reserved"
413 and thus not to be used for memory allocations, especially during
414 early initialization. The kernel needs to allocate memory during
415 boot for things like un-flattening the device-tree, allocating an
416 MMU hash table, etc... Those allocations must be done in such a
417 way to avoid overriding critical things like, on Open Firmware
418 capable machines, the RTAS instance, or on some pSeries, the TCE
419 tables used for the iommu. Typically, the reserve map should
420 contain _at least_ this DT block itself (header,total_size). If
421 you are passing an initrd to the kernel, you should reserve it as
422 well. You do not need to reserve the kernel image itself. The map
423 should be 64-bit aligned.
424
425 - version
426
427 This is the version of this structure. Version 1 stops
428 here. Version 2 adds an additional field boot_cpuid_phys.
429 Version 3 adds the size of the strings block, allowing the kernel
430 to reallocate it easily at boot and free up the unused flattened
431 structure after expansion. Version 16 introduces a new more
432 "compact" format for the tree itself that is however not backward
433 compatible. Version 17 adds an additional field, size_dt_struct,
434 allowing it to be reallocated or moved more easily (this is
435 particularly useful for bootloaders which need to make
436 adjustments to a device tree based on probed information). You
437 should always generate a structure of the highest version defined
438 at the time of your implementation. Currently that is version 17,
439 unless you explicitly aim at being backward compatible.
440
441 - last_comp_version
442
443 Last compatible version. This indicates down to what version of
444 the DT block you are backward compatible. For example, version 2
445 is backward compatible with version 1 (that is, a kernel build
446 for version 1 will be able to boot with a version 2 format). You
447 should put a 1 in this field if you generate a device tree of
448 version 1 to 3, or 16 if you generate a tree of version 16 or 17
449 using the new unit name format.
450
451 - boot_cpuid_phys
452
453 This field only exist on version 2 headers. It indicate which
454 physical CPU ID is calling the kernel entry point. This is used,
455 among others, by kexec. If you are on an SMP system, this value
456 should match the content of the "reg" property of the CPU node in
457 the device-tree corresponding to the CPU calling the kernel entry
458 point (see further chapters for more informations on the required
459 device-tree contents)
460
461 - size_dt_strings
462
463 This field only exists on version 3 and later headers. It
464 gives the size of the "strings" section of the device tree (which
465 starts at the offset given by off_dt_strings).
466
467 - size_dt_struct
468
469 This field only exists on version 17 and later headers. It gives
470 the size of the "structure" section of the device tree (which
471 starts at the offset given by off_dt_struct).
472
473 So the typical layout of a DT block (though the various parts don't
474 need to be in that order) looks like this (addresses go from top to
475 bottom):
476
477
478 ------------------------------
479 r3 -> | struct boot_param_header |
480 ------------------------------
481 | (alignment gap) (*) |

499 --- (r3 + totalsize)
500
501 (*) The alignment gaps are not necessarily present; their presence
502 and size are dependent on the various alignment requirements of
503 the individual data blocks.
504
505
506 2) Device tree generalities
507 ---------------------------
508
509 This device-tree itself is separated in two different blocks, a
510 structure block and a strings block. Both need to be aligned to a 4
511 byte boundary.
512
513 First, let's quickly describe the device-tree concept before detailing
514 the storage format. This chapter does _not_ describe the detail of the
515 required types of nodes & properties for the kernel, this is done
516 later in chapter III.
517
518 The device-tree layout is strongly inherited from the definition of
519 the Open Firmware IEEE 1275 device-tree. It's basically a tree of
520 nodes, each node having two or more named properties. A property can
521 have a value or not.
522
523 It is a tree, so each node has one and only one parent except for the
524 root node who has no parent.
525
526 A node has 2 names. The actual node name is generally contained in a
527 property of type "name" in the node property list whose value is a
528 zero terminated string and is mandatory for version 1 to 3 of the
529 format definition (as it is in Open Firmware). Version 16 makes it
530 optional as it can generate it from the unit name defined below.
531
532 There is also a "unit name" that is used to differentiate nodes with
533 the same name at the same level, it is usually made of the node
534 names, the "@" sign, and a "unit address", which definition is
535 specific to the bus type the node sits on.
536
537 The unit name doesn't exist as a property per-se but is included in
538 the device-tree structure. It is typically used to represent "path" in
539 the device-tree. More details about the actual format of these will be
540 below.
541
542 The kernel powerpc generic code does not make any formal use of the
543 unit address (though some board support code may do) so the only real
544 requirement here for the unit address is to ensure uniqueness of
545 the node unit name at a given level of the tree. Nodes with no notion
546 of address and no possible sibling of the same name (like /memory or
547 /cpus) may omit the unit address in the context of this specification,
548 or use the "@0" default unit address. The unit name is used to define
549 a node "full path", which is the concatenation of all parent node
550 unit names separated with "/".
551
552 The root node doesn't have a defined name, and isn't required to have
553 a name property either if you are using version 3 or earlier of the
554 format. It also has no unit address (no @ symbol followed by a unit
555 address). The root node unit name is thus an empty string. The full
556 path to the root node is "/".
557
558 Every node which actually represents an actual device (that is, a node
559 which isn't only a virtual "container" for more nodes, like "/cpus"
560 is) is also required to have a "device_type" property indicating the
561 type of node .
562
563 Finally, every node that can be referenced from a property in another
564 node is required to have a "linux,phandle" property. Real open
565 firmware implementations provide a unique "phandle" value for every
566 node that the "prom_init()" trampoline code turns into
567 "linux,phandle" properties. However, this is made optional if the
568 flattened device tree is used directly. An example of a node
569 referencing another node via "phandle" is when laying out the
570 interrupt tree which will be described in a further version of this
571 document.
572
573 This "linux, phandle" property is a 32-bit value that uniquely
574 identifies a node. You are free to use whatever values or system of
575 values, internal pointers, or whatever to generate these, the only
576 requirement is that every node for which you provide that property has
577 a unique value for it.
578
579 Here is an example of a simple device-tree. In this example, an "o"
580 designates a node followed by the node unit name. Properties are
581 presented with their name followed by their content. "content"
582 represents an ASCII string (zero terminated) value, while <content>
583 represents a 32-bit hexadecimal value. The various nodes in this
584 example will be discussed in a later chapter. At this point, it is
585 only meant to give you a idea of what a device-tree looks like. I have
586 purposefully kept the "name" and "linux,phandle" properties which
587 aren't necessary in order to give you a better idea of what the tree
588 looks like in practice.
589
590 / o device-tree
591 |- name = "device-tree"
592 |- model = "MyBoardName"
593 |- compatible = "MyBoardFamilyName"
594 |- #address-cells = <2>
595 |- #size-cells = <2>
596 |- linux,phandle = <0>
597 |
598 o cpus
599 | | - name = "cpus"
600 | | - linux,phandle = <1>
601 | | - #address-cells = <1>
602 | | - #size-cells = <0>
603 | |
604 | o PowerPC,970@0
605 | |- name = "PowerPC,970"
606 | |- device_type = "cpu"
607 | |- reg = <0>
608 | |- clock-frequency = <5f5e1000>
609 | |- 64-bit
610 | |- linux,phandle = <2>
611 |
612 o memory@0
613 | |- name = "memory"
614 | |- device_type = "memory"
615 | |- reg = <00000000 00000000 00000000 20000000>
616 | |- linux,phandle = <3>
617 |
618 o chosen
619 |- name = "chosen"
620 |- bootargs = "root=/dev/sda2"
621 |- linux,phandle = <4>
622
623 This tree is almost a minimal tree. It pretty much contains the
624 minimal set of required nodes and properties to boot a linux kernel;
625 that is, some basic model informations at the root, the CPUs, and the
626 physical memory layout. It also includes misc information passed
627 through /chosen, like in this example, the platform type (mandatory)
628 and the kernel command line arguments (optional).
629
630 The /cpus/PowerPC,970@0/64-bit property is an example of a
631 property without a value. All other properties have a value. The
632 significance of the #address-cells and #size-cells properties will be
633 explained in chapter IV which defines precisely the required nodes and
634 properties and their content.
635
636
637 3) Device tree "structure" block
638
639 The structure of the device tree is a linearized tree structure. The
640 "OF_DT_BEGIN_NODE" token starts a new node, and the "OF_DT_END_NODE"
641 ends that node definition. Child nodes are simply defined before
642 "OF_DT_END_NODE" (that is nodes within the node). A 'token' is a 32
643 bit value. The tree has to be "finished" with a OF_DT_END token
644
645 Here's the basic structure of a single node:
646
647 * token OF_DT_BEGIN_NODE (that is 0x00000001)
648 * for version 1 to 3, this is the node full path as a zero
649 terminated string, starting with "/". For version 16 and later,
650 this is the node unit name only (or an empty string for the
651 root node)
652 * [align gap to next 4 bytes boundary]
653 * for each property:
654 * token OF_DT_PROP (that is 0x00000003)
655 * 32-bit value of property value size in bytes (or 0 if no
656 value)
657 * 32-bit value of offset in string block of property name
658 * property value data if any
659 * [align gap to next 4 bytes boundary]
660 * [child nodes if any]
661 * token OF_DT_END_NODE (that is 0x00000002)
662
663 So the node content can be summarized as a start token, a full path,
664 a list of properties, a list of child nodes, and an end token. Every
665 child node is a full node structure itself as defined above.
666
667 NOTE: The above definition requires that all property definitions for
668 a particular node MUST precede any subnode definitions for that node.
669 Although the structure would not be ambiguous if properties and
670 subnodes were intermingled, the kernel parser requires that the
671 properties come first (up until at least 2.6.22). Any tools
672 manipulating a flattened tree must take care to preserve this
673 constraint.
674
675 4) Device tree "strings" block
676
677 In order to save space, property names, which are generally redundant,
678 are stored separately in the "strings" block. This block is simply the
679 whole bunch of zero terminated strings for all property names
680 concatenated together. The device-tree property definitions in the
681 structure block will contain offset values from the beginning of the
682 strings block.
683
684
685 III - Required content of the device tree
686 =========================================
687
688 WARNING: All "linux,*" properties defined in this document apply only
689 to a flattened device-tree. If your platform uses a real
690 implementation of Open Firmware or an implementation compatible with
691 the Open Firmware client interface, those properties will be created
692 by the trampoline code in the kernel's prom_init() file. For example,
693 that's where you'll have to add code to detect your board model and
694 set the platform number. However, when using the flattened device-tree
695 entry point, there is no prom_init() pass, and thus you have to
696 provide those properties yourself.
697
698
699 1) Note about cells and address representation
700 ----------------------------------------------
701
702 The general rule is documented in the various Open Firmware
703 documentations. If you choose to describe a bus with the device-tree
704 and there exist an OF bus binding, then you should follow the
705 specification. However, the kernel does not require every single
706 device or bus to be described by the device tree.
707
708 In general, the format of an address for a device is defined by the
709 parent bus type, based on the #address-cells and #size-cells
710 properties. Note that the parent's parent definitions of #address-cells
711 and #size-cells are not inhereted so every node with children must specify
712 them. The kernel requires the root node to have those properties defining
713 addresses format for devices directly mapped on the processor bus.
714
715 Those 2 properties define 'cells' for representing an address and a
716 size. A "cell" is a 32-bit number. For example, if both contain 2
717 like the example tree given above, then an address and a size are both
718 composed of 2 cells, and each is a 64-bit number (cells are
719 concatenated and expected to be in big endian format). Another example
720 is the way Apple firmware defines them, with 2 cells for an address
721 and one cell for a size. Most 32-bit implementations should define
722 #address-cells and #size-cells to 1, which represents a 32-bit value.
723 Some 32-bit processors allow for physical addresses greater than 32
724 bits; these processors should define #address-cells as 2.
725
726 "reg" properties are always a tuple of the type "address size" where
727 the number of cells of address and size is specified by the bus
728 #address-cells and #size-cells. When a bus supports various address
729 spaces and other flags relative to a given address allocation (like
730 prefetchable, etc...) those flags are usually added to the top level
731 bits of the physical address. For example, a PCI physical address is
732 made of 3 cells, the bottom two containing the actual address itself
733 while the top cell contains address space indication, flags, and pci
734 bus & device numbers.
735
736 For busses that support dynamic allocation, it's the accepted practice
737 to then not provide the address in "reg" (keep it 0) though while
738 providing a flag indicating the address is dynamically allocated, and
739 then, to provide a separate "assigned-addresses" property that
740 contains the fully allocated addresses. See the PCI OF bindings for
741 details.
742
743 In general, a simple bus with no address space bits and no dynamic
744 allocation is preferred if it reflects your hardware, as the existing
745 kernel address parsing functions will work out of the box. If you
746 define a bus type with a more complex address format, including things
747 like address space bits, you'll have to add a bus translator to the
748 prom_parse.c file of the recent kernels for your bus type.
749
750 The "reg" property only defines addresses and sizes (if #size-cells is
751 non-0) within a given bus. In order to translate addresses upward
752 (that is into parent bus addresses, and possibly into CPU physical
753 addresses), all busses must contain a "ranges" property. If the
754 "ranges" property is missing at a given level, it's assumed that
755 translation isn't possible, i.e., the registers are not visible on the
756 parent bus. The format of the "ranges" property for a bus is a list
757 of:
758
759 bus address, parent bus address, size
760
761 "bus address" is in the format of the bus this bus node is defining,
762 that is, for a PCI bridge, it would be a PCI address. Thus, (bus
763 address, size) defines a range of addresses for child devices. "parent
764 bus address" is in the format of the parent bus of this bus. For
765 example, for a PCI host controller, that would be a CPU address. For a
766 PCI<->ISA bridge, that would be a PCI address. It defines the base
767 address in the parent bus where the beginning of that range is mapped.
768
769 For a new 64-bit powerpc board, I recommend either the 2/2 format or
770 Apple's 2/1 format which is slightly more compact since sizes usually
771 fit in a single 32-bit word. New 32-bit powerpc boards should use a
772 1/1 format, unless the processor supports physical addresses greater
773 than 32-bits, in which case a 2/1 format is recommended.
774
775 Alternatively, the "ranges" property may be empty, indicating that the
776 registers are visible on the parent bus using an identity mapping
777 translation. In other words, the parent bus address space is the same
778 as the child bus address space.
779
780 2) Note about "compatible" properties
781 -------------------------------------
782
783 These properties are optional, but recommended in devices and the root
784 node. The format of a "compatible" property is a list of concatenated
785 zero terminated strings. They allow a device to express its
786 compatibility with a family of similar devices, in some cases,
787 allowing a single driver to match against several devices regardless
788 of their actual names.
789
790 3) Note about "name" properties
791 -------------------------------
792
793 While earlier users of Open Firmware like OldWorld macintoshes tended
794 to use the actual device name for the "name" property, it's nowadays
795 considered a good practice to use a name that is closer to the device
796 class (often equal to device_type). For example, nowadays, ethernet
797 controllers are named "ethernet", an additional "model" property
798 defining precisely the chip type/model, and "compatible" property
799 defining the family in case a single driver can driver more than one
800 of these chips. However, the kernel doesn't generally put any
801 restriction on the "name" property; it is simply considered good
802 practice to follow the standard and its evolutions as closely as
803 possible.
804
805 Note also that the new format version 16 makes the "name" property
806 optional. If it's absent for a node, then the node's unit name is then
807 used to reconstruct the name. That is, the part of the unit name
808 before the "@" sign is used (or the entire unit name if no "@" sign
809 is present).
810
811 4) Note about node and property names and character set
812 -------------------------------------------------------
813
814 While open firmware provides more flexible usage of 8859-1, this
815 specification enforces more strict rules. Nodes and properties should
816 be comprised only of ASCII characters 'a' to 'z', '0' to
817 '9', ',', '.', '_', '+', '#', '?', and '-'. Node names additionally
818 allow uppercase characters 'A' to 'Z' (property names should be
819 lowercase. The fact that vendors like Apple don't respect this rule is
820 irrelevant here). Additionally, node and property names should always
821 begin with a character in the range 'a' to 'z' (or 'A' to 'Z' for node
822 names).
823
824 The maximum number of characters for both nodes and property names
825 is 31. In the case of node names, this is only the leftmost part of
826 a unit name (the pure "name" property), it doesn't include the unit
827 address which can extend beyond that limit.
828
829
830 5) Required nodes and properties
831 --------------------------------
832 These are all that are currently required. However, it is strongly
833 recommended that you expose PCI host bridges as documented in the
834 PCI binding to open firmware, and your interrupt tree as documented
835 in OF interrupt tree specification.
836
837 a) The root node
838
839 The root node requires some properties to be present:
840
841 - model : this is your board name/model
842 - #address-cells : address representation for "root" devices
843 - #size-cells: the size representation for "root" devices
844 - device_type : This property shouldn't be necessary. However, if
845 you decide to create a device_type for your root node, make sure it
846 is _not_ "chrp" unless your platform is a pSeries or PAPR compliant
847 one for 64-bit, or a CHRP-type machine for 32-bit as this will
848 matched by the kernel this way.
849
850 Additionally, some recommended properties are:
851
852 - compatible : the board "family" generally finds its way here,
853 for example, if you have 2 board models with a similar layout,
854 that typically get driven by the same platform code in the
855 kernel, you would use a different "model" property but put a
856 value in "compatible". The kernel doesn't directly use that
857 value but it is generally useful.
858
859 The root node is also generally where you add additional properties
860 specific to your board like the serial number if any, that sort of
861 thing. It is recommended that if you add any "custom" property whose
862 name may clash with standard defined ones, you prefix them with your
863 vendor name and a comma.
864
865 b) The /cpus node
866
867 This node is the parent of all individual CPU nodes. It doesn't
868 have any specific requirements, though it's generally good practice
869 to have at least:
870
871 #address-cells = <00000001>
872 #size-cells = <00000000>
873
874 This defines that the "address" for a CPU is a single cell, and has
875 no meaningful size. This is not necessary but the kernel will assume
876 that format when reading the "reg" properties of a CPU node, see
877 below
878
879 c) The /cpus/* nodes
880
881 So under /cpus, you are supposed to create a node for every CPU on
882 the machine. There is no specific restriction on the name of the
883 CPU, though It's common practice to call it PowerPC,<name>. For
884 example, Apple uses PowerPC,G5 while IBM uses PowerPC,970FX.
885
886 Required properties:
887
888 - device_type : has to be "cpu"
889 - reg : This is the physical CPU number, it's a single 32-bit cell
890 and is also used as-is as the unit number for constructing the
891 unit name in the full path. For example, with 2 CPUs, you would
892 have the full path:
893 /cpus/PowerPC,970FX@0
894 /cpus/PowerPC,970FX@1
895 (unit addresses do not require leading zeroes)
896 - d-cache-block-size : one cell, L1 data cache block size in bytes (*)
897 - i-cache-block-size : one cell, L1 instruction cache block size in
898 bytes
899 - d-cache-size : one cell, size of L1 data cache in bytes
900 - i-cache-size : one cell, size of L1 instruction cache in bytes
901
902 (*) The cache "block" size is the size on which the cache management
903 instructions operate. Historically, this document used the cache
904 "line" size here which is incorrect. The kernel will prefer the cache
905 block size and will fallback to cache line size for backward
906 compatibility.
907
908 Recommended properties:
909
910 - timebase-frequency : a cell indicating the frequency of the
911 timebase in Hz. This is not directly used by the generic code,
912 but you are welcome to copy/paste the pSeries code for setting
913 the kernel timebase/decrementer calibration based on this
914 value.
915 - clock-frequency : a cell indicating the CPU core clock frequency
916 in Hz. A new property will be defined for 64-bit values, but if
917 your frequency is < 4Ghz, one cell is enough. Here as well as
918 for the above, the common code doesn't use that property, but
919 you are welcome to re-use the pSeries or Maple one. A future
920 kernel version might provide a common function for this.
921 - d-cache-line-size : one cell, L1 data cache line size in bytes
922 if different from the block size
923 - i-cache-line-size : one cell, L1 instruction cache line size in
924 bytes if different from the block size
925
926 You are welcome to add any property you find relevant to your board,
927 like some information about the mechanism used to soft-reset the
928 CPUs. For example, Apple puts the GPIO number for CPU soft reset
929 lines in there as a "soft-reset" property since they start secondary
930 CPUs by soft-resetting them.
931
932
933 d) the /memory node(s)
934
935 To define the physical memory layout of your board, you should
936 create one or more memory node(s). You can either create a single
937 node with all memory ranges in its reg property, or you can create
938 several nodes, as you wish. The unit address (@ part) used for the
939 full path is the address of the first range of memory defined by a
940 given node. If you use a single memory node, this will typically be
941 @0.
942
943 Required properties:
944
945 - device_type : has to be "memory"
946 - reg : This property contains all the physical memory ranges of
947 your board. It's a list of addresses/sizes concatenated
948 together, with the number of cells of each defined by the
949 #address-cells and #size-cells of the root node. For example,
950 with both of these properties being 2 like in the example given
951 earlier, a 970 based machine with 6Gb of RAM could typically
952 have a "reg" property here that looks like:
953
954 00000000 00000000 00000000 80000000
955 00000001 00000000 00000001 00000000
956
957 That is a range starting at 0 of 0x80000000 bytes and a range
958 starting at 0x100000000 and of 0x100000000 bytes. You can see
959 that there is no memory covering the IO hole between 2Gb and
960 4Gb. Some vendors prefer splitting those ranges into smaller
961 segments, but the kernel doesn't care.
962
963 e) The /chosen node
964
965 This node is a bit "special". Normally, that's where open firmware
966 puts some variable environment information, like the arguments, or
967 the default input/output devices.
968
969 This specification makes a few of these mandatory, but also defines
970 some linux-specific properties that would be normally constructed by
971 the prom_init() trampoline when booting with an OF client interface,
972 but that you have to provide yourself when using the flattened format.
973
974 Recommended properties:
975
976 - bootargs : This zero-terminated string is passed as the kernel
977 command line
978 - linux,stdout-path : This is the full path to your standard
979 console device if any. Typically, if you have serial devices on
980 your board, you may want to put the full path to the one set as
981 the default console in the firmware here, for the kernel to pick
982 it up as its own default console. If you look at the function
983 set_preferred_console() in arch/ppc64/kernel/setup.c, you'll see
984 that the kernel tries to find out the default console and has
985 knowledge of various types like 8250 serial ports. You may want
986 to extend this function to add your own.
987
988 Note that u-boot creates and fills in the chosen node for platforms
989 that use it.
990
991 (Note: a practice that is now obsolete was to include a property
992 under /chosen called interrupt-controller which had a phandle value
993 that pointed to the main interrupt controller)
994
995 f) the /soc<SOCname> node
996
997 This node is used to represent a system-on-a-chip (SOC) and must be
998 present if the processor is a SOC. The top-level soc node contains
999 information that is global to all devices on the SOC. The node name
1000 should contain a unit address for the SOC, which is the base address
1001 of the memory-mapped register set for the SOC. The name of an soc
1002 node should start with "soc", and the remainder of the name should
1003 represent the part number for the soc. For example, the MPC8540's
1004 soc node would be called "soc8540".
1005
1006 Required properties:
1007
1008 - device_type : Should be "soc"
1009 - ranges : Should be defined as specified in 1) to describe the
1010 translation of SOC addresses for memory mapped SOC registers.
1011 - bus-frequency: Contains the bus frequency for the SOC node.
1012 Typically, the value of this field is filled in by the boot
1013 loader.
1014
1015
1016 Recommended properties:
1017
1018 - reg : This property defines the address and size of the
1019 memory-mapped registers that are used for the SOC node itself.
1020 It does not include the child device registers - these will be
1021 defined inside each child node. The address specified in the
1022 "reg" property should match the unit address of the SOC node.
1023 - #address-cells : Address representation for "soc" devices. The
1024 format of this field may vary depending on whether or not the
1025 device registers are memory mapped. For memory mapped
1026 registers, this field represents the number of cells needed to
1027 represent the address of the registers. For SOCs that do not
1028 use MMIO, a special address format should be defined that
1029 contains enough cells to represent the required information.
1030 See 1) above for more details on defining #address-cells.
1031 - #size-cells : Size representation for "soc" devices
1032 - #interrupt-cells : Defines the width of cells used to represent
1033 interrupts. Typically this value is <2>, which includes a
1034 32-bit number that represents the interrupt number, and a
1035 32-bit number that represents the interrupt sense and level.
1036 This field is only needed if the SOC contains an interrupt
1037 controller.
1038
1039 The SOC node may contain child nodes for each SOC device that the
1040 platform uses. Nodes should not be created for devices which exist
1041 on the SOC but are not used by a particular platform. See chapter VI
1042 for more information on how to specify devices that are part of a SOC.
1043
1044 Example SOC node for the MPC8540:
1045
1046 soc8540@e0000000 {
1047 #address-cells = <1>;
1048 #size-cells = <1>;
1049 #interrupt-cells = <2>;
1050 device_type = "soc";
1051 ranges = <00000000 e0000000 00100000>
1052 reg = <e0000000 00003000>;
1053 bus-frequency = <0>;
1054 }
1055
1056

1058 IV - "dtc", the device tree compiler
1059 ====================================
1060
1061
1062 dtc source code can be found at
1063 <http://ozlabs.org/~dgibson/dtc/dtc.tar.gz>
1064
1065 WARNING: This version is still in early development stage; the
1066 resulting device-tree "blobs" have not yet been validated with the
1067 kernel. The current generated bloc lacks a useful reserve map (it will
1068 be fixed to generate an empty one, it's up to the bootloader to fill
1069 it up) among others. The error handling needs work, bugs are lurking,
1070 etc...
1071
1072 dtc basically takes a device-tree in a given format and outputs a
1073 device-tree in another format. The currently supported formats are:
1074
1075 Input formats:
1076 -------------
1077
1078 - "dtb": "blob" format, that is a flattened device-tree block
1079 with
1080 header all in a binary blob.
1081 - "dts": "source" format. This is a text file containing a
1082 "source" for a device-tree. The format is defined later in this
1083 chapter.
1084 - "fs" format. This is a representation equivalent to the
1085 output of /proc/device-tree, that is nodes are directories and
1086 properties are files
1087
1088 Output formats:
1089 ---------------
1090
1091 - "dtb": "blob" format
1092 - "dts": "source" format
1093 - "asm": assembly language file. This is a file that can be
1094 sourced by gas to generate a device-tree "blob". That file can
1095 then simply be added to your Makefile. Additionally, the
1096 assembly file exports some symbols that can be used.
1097
1098
1099 The syntax of the dtc tool is
1100
1101 dtc [-I <input-format>] [-O <output-format>]
1102 [-o output-filename] [-V output_version] input_filename
1103
1104
1105 The "output_version" defines what version of the "blob" format will be
1106 generated. Supported versions are 1,2,3 and 16. The default is
1107 currently version 3 but that may change in the future to version 16.
1108
1109 Additionally, dtc performs various sanity checks on the tree, like the
1110 uniqueness of linux, phandle properties, validity of strings, etc...
1111
1112 The format of the .dts "source" file is "C" like, supports C and C++
1113 style comments.
1114
1115 / {
1116 }
1117
1118 The above is the "device-tree" definition. It's the only statement
1119 supported currently at the toplevel.
1120
1121 / {
1122 property1 = "string_value"; /* define a property containing a 0
1123 * terminated string
1124 */
1125
1126 property2 = <1234abcd>; /* define a property containing a
1127 * numerical 32-bit value (hexadecimal)
1128 */
1129
1130 property3 = <12345678 12345678 deadbeef>;
1131 /* define a property containing 3
1132 * numerical 32-bit values (cells) in
1133 * hexadecimal
1134 */
1135 property4 = [0a 0b 0c 0d de ea ad be ef];
1136 /* define a property whose content is
1137 * an arbitrary array of bytes
1138 */
1139
1140 childnode@addresss { /* define a child node named "childnode"
1141 * whose unit name is "childnode at
1142 * address"
1143 */
1144
1145 childprop = "hello\n"; /* define a property "childprop" of
1146 * childnode (in this case, a string)
1147 */
1148 };
1149 };
1150
1151 Nodes can contain other nodes etc... thus defining the hierarchical
1152 structure of the tree.
1153
1154 Strings support common escape sequences from C: "\n", "\t", "\r",
1155 "\(octal value)", "\x(hex value)".
1156
1157 It is also suggested that you pipe your source file through cpp (gcc
1158 preprocessor) so you can use #include's, #define for constants, etc...
1159
1160 Finally, various options are planned but not yet implemented, like
1161 automatic generation of phandles, labels (exported to the asm file so
1162 you can point to a property content and change it easily from whatever
1163 you link the device-tree with), label or path instead of numeric value
1164 in some cells to "point" to a node (replaced by a phandle at compile
1165 time), export of reserve map address to the asm file, ability to
1166 specify reserve map content at compile time, etc...
1167
1168 We may provide a .h include file with common definitions of that
1169 proves useful for some properties (like building PCI properties or
1170 interrupt maps) though it may be better to add a notion of struct
1171 definitions to the compiler...
1172
1173
1174 V - Recommendations for a bootloader
1175 ====================================
1176
1177
1178 Here are some various ideas/recommendations that have been proposed
1179 while all this has been defined and implemented.
1180
1181 - The bootloader may want to be able to use the device-tree itself
1182 and may want to manipulate it (to add/edit some properties,
1183 like physical memory size or kernel arguments). At this point, 2
1184 choices can be made. Either the bootloader works directly on the
1185 flattened format, or the bootloader has its own internal tree
1186 representation with pointers (similar to the kernel one) and
1187 re-flattens the tree when booting the kernel. The former is a bit
1188 more difficult to edit/modify, the later requires probably a bit
1189 more code to handle the tree structure. Note that the structure
1190 format has been designed so it's relatively easy to "insert"
1191 properties or nodes or delete them by just memmoving things
1192 around. It contains no internal offsets or pointers for this
1193 purpose.
1194
1195 - An example of code for iterating nodes & retrieving properties
1196 directly from the flattened tree format can be found in the kernel
1197 file arch/ppc64/kernel/prom.c, look at scan_flat_dt() function,
1198 its usage in early_init_devtree(), and the corresponding various
1199 early_init_dt_scan_*() callbacks. That code can be re-used in a
1200 GPL bootloader, and as the author of that code, I would be happy
1201 to discuss possible free licensing to any vendor who wishes to
1202 integrate all or part of this code into a non-GPL bootloader.
1203
1204
1205
1206 VI - System-on-a-chip devices and nodes
1207 =======================================
1208
1209 Many companies are now starting to develop system-on-a-chip
1210 processors, where the processor core (CPU) and many peripheral devices
1211 exist on a single piece of silicon. For these SOCs, an SOC node
1212 should be used that defines child nodes for the devices that make
1213 up the SOC. While platforms are not required to use this model in
1214 order to boot the kernel, it is highly encouraged that all SOC
1215 implementations define as complete a flat-device-tree as possible to
1216 describe the devices on the SOC. This will allow for the
1217 genericization of much of the kernel code.
1218
1219
1220 1) Defining child nodes of an SOC
1221 ---------------------------------
1222
1223 Each device that is part of an SOC may have its own node entry inside
1224 the SOC node. For each device that is included in the SOC, the unit
1225 address property represents the address offset for this device's
1226 memory-mapped registers in the parent's address space. The parent's
1227 address space is defined by the "ranges" property in the top-level soc
1228 node. The "reg" property for each node that exists directly under the
1229 SOC node should contain the address mapping from the child address space
1230 to the parent SOC address space and the size of the device's
1231 memory-mapped register file.
1232
1233 For many devices that may exist inside an SOC, there are predefined
1234 specifications for the format of the device tree node. All SOC child
1235 nodes should follow these specifications, except where noted in this
1236 document.
1237
1238 See appendix A for an example partial SOC node definition for the
1239 MPC8540.
1240
1241
1242 2) Representing devices without a current OF specification
1243 ----------------------------------------------------------
1244
1245 Currently, there are many devices on SOCs that do not have a standard
1246 representation pre-defined as part of the open firmware
1247 specifications, mainly because the boards that contain these SOCs are
1248 not currently booted using open firmware. This section contains
1249 descriptions for the SOC devices for which new nodes have been
1250 defined; this list will expand as more and more SOC-containing
1251 platforms are moved over to use the flattened-device-tree model.
1252
1253 a) MDIO IO device
1254
1255 The MDIO is a bus to which the PHY devices are connected. For each
1256 device that exists on this bus, a child node should be created. See
1257 the definition of the PHY node below for an example of how to define
1258 a PHY.
1259
1260 Required properties:
1261 - reg : Offset and length of the register set for the device
1262 - compatible : Should define the compatible device type for the
1263 mdio. Currently, this is most likely to be "fsl,gianfar-mdio"
1264
1265 Example:
1266
1267 mdio@24520 {
1268 reg = <24520 20>;
1269 compatible = "fsl,gianfar-mdio";
1270
1271 ethernet-phy@0 {
1272 ......
1273 };
1274 };
1275
1276
1277 b) Gianfar-compatible ethernet nodes
1278
1279 Required properties:
1280
1281 - device_type : Should be "network"
1282 - model : Model of the device. Can be "TSEC", "eTSEC", or "FEC"
1283 - compatible : Should be "gianfar"
1284 - reg : Offset and length of the register set for the device
1285 - mac-address : List of bytes representing the ethernet address of
1286 this controller
1287 - interrupts : <a b> where a is the interrupt number and b is a
1288 field that represents an encoding of the sense and level
1289 information for the interrupt. This should be encoded based on
1290 the information in section 2) depending on the type of interrupt
1291 controller you have.
1292 - interrupt-parent : the phandle for the interrupt controller that
1293 services interrupts for this device.
1294 - phy-handle : The phandle for the PHY connected to this ethernet
1295 controller.
1296 - fixed-link : <a b c d e> where a is emulated phy id - choose any,
1297 but unique to the all specified fixed-links, b is duplex - 0 half,
1298 1 full, c is link speed - d#10/d#100/d#1000, d is pause - 0 no
1299 pause, 1 pause, e is asym_pause - 0 no asym_pause, 1 asym_pause.
1300
1301 Recommended properties:
1302
1303 - phy-connection-type : a string naming the controller/PHY interface type,
1304 i.e., "mii" (default), "rmii", "gmii", "rgmii", "rgmii-id", "sgmii",
1305 "tbi", or "rtbi". This property is only really needed if the connection
1306 is of type "rgmii-id", as all other connection types are detected by
1307 hardware.
1308
1309
1310 Example:
1311
1312 ethernet@24000 {
1313 #size-cells = <0>;
1314 device_type = "network";
1315 model = "TSEC";
1316 compatible = "gianfar";
1317 reg = <24000 1000>;
1318 mac-address = [ 00 E0 0C 00 73 00 ];
1319 interrupts = <d 3 e 3 12 3>;
1320 interrupt-parent = <40000>;
1321 phy-handle = <2452000>
1322 };
1323
1324
1325
1326 c) PHY nodes
1327
1328 Required properties:
1329
1330 - device_type : Should be "ethernet-phy"
1331 - interrupts : <a b> where a is the interrupt number and b is a
1332 field that represents an encoding of the sense and level
1333 information for the interrupt. This should be encoded based on
1334 the information in section 2) depending on the type of interrupt
1335 controller you have.
1336 - interrupt-parent : the phandle for the interrupt controller that
1337 services interrupts for this device.
1338 - reg : The ID number for the phy, usually a small integer
1339 - linux,phandle : phandle for this node; likely referenced by an
1340 ethernet controller node.
1341
1342
1343 Example:
1344
1345 ethernet-phy@0 {
1346 linux,phandle = <2452000>
1347 interrupt-parent = <40000>;
1348 interrupts = <35 1>;
1349 reg = <0>;
1350 device_type = "ethernet-phy";
1351 };
1352
1353
1354 d) Interrupt controllers
1355
1356 Some SOC devices contain interrupt controllers that are different
1357 from the standard Open PIC specification. The SOC device nodes for
1358 these types of controllers should be specified just like a standard
1359 OpenPIC controller. Sense and level information should be encoded
1360 as specified in section 2) of this chapter for each device that
1361 specifies an interrupt.
1362
1363 Example :
1364
1365 pic@40000 {
1366 linux,phandle = <40000>;
1367 interrupt-controller;
1368 #address-cells = <0>;
1369 reg = <40000 40000>;
1370 compatible = "chrp,open-pic";
1371 device_type = "open-pic";
1372 };
1373
1374
1375 e) I2C
1376
1377 Required properties :
1378
1379 - device_type : Should be "i2c"
1380 - reg : Offset and length of the register set for the device
1381
1382 Recommended properties :
1383
1384 - compatible : Should be "fsl-i2c" for parts compatible with
1385 Freescale I2C specifications.
1386 - interrupts : <a b> where a is the interrupt number and b is a
1387 field that represents an encoding of the sense and level
1388 information for the interrupt. This should be encoded based on
1389 the information in section 2) depending on the type of interrupt
1390 controller you have.
1391 - interrupt-parent : the phandle for the interrupt controller that
1392 services interrupts for this device.
1393 - dfsrr : boolean; if defined, indicates that this I2C device has
1394 a digital filter sampling rate register
1395 - fsl5200-clocking : boolean; if defined, indicated that this device
1396 uses the FSL 5200 clocking mechanism.
1397
1398 Example :
1399
1400 i2c@3000 {
1401 interrupt-parent = <40000>;
1402 interrupts = <1b 3>;
1403 reg = <3000 18>;
1404 device_type = "i2c";
1405 compatible = "fsl-i2c";
1406 dfsrr;
1407 };
1408
1409
1410 f) Freescale SOC USB controllers
1411
1412 The device node for a USB controller that is part of a Freescale
1413 SOC is as described in the document "Open Firmware Recommended
1414 Practice : Universal Serial Bus" with the following modifications
1415 and additions :

1419 controllers, or "fsl-usb2-dr" for dual role USB controllers
1420 - phy_type : For multi port host USB controllers, should be one of
1421 "ulpi", or "serial". For dual role USB controllers, should be
1422 one of "ulpi", "utmi", "utmi_wide", or "serial".
1423 - reg : Offset and length of the register set for the device
1424 - port0 : boolean; if defined, indicates port0 is connected for
1425 fsl-usb2-mph compatible controllers. Either this property or
1426 "port1" (or both) must be defined for "fsl-usb2-mph" compatible
1427 controllers.
1428 - port1 : boolean; if defined, indicates port1 is connected for
1429 fsl-usb2-mph compatible controllers. Either this property or
1430 "port0" (or both) must be defined for "fsl-usb2-mph" compatible
1431 controllers.
1432 - dr_mode : indicates the working mode for "fsl-usb2-dr" compatible
1433 controllers. Can be "host", "peripheral", or "otg". Default to
1434 "host" if not defined for backward compatibility.
1435
1436 Recommended properties :
1437 - interrupts : <a b> where a is the interrupt number and b is a
1438 field that represents an encoding of the sense and level
1439 information for the interrupt. This should be encoded based on
1440 the information in section 2) depending on the type of interrupt
1441 controller you have.
1442 - interrupt-parent : the phandle for the interrupt controller that
1443 services interrupts for this device.
1444
1445 Example multi port host USB controller device node :

1447 compatible = "fsl-usb2-mph";
1448 reg = <22000 1000>;

1452 interrupts = <27 1>;
1453 phy_type = "ulpi";
1454 port0;
1455 port1;
1456 };
1457
1458 Example dual role USB controller device node :

1482 the information in section 2) depending on the type of interrupt
1483 controller you have.
1484 - interrupt-parent : the phandle for the interrupt controller that
1485 services interrupts for this device.
1486 - num-channels : An integer representing the number of channels
1487 available.
1488 - channel-fifo-len : An integer representing the number of
1489 descriptor pointers each channel fetch fifo can hold.
1490 - exec-units-mask : The bitmask representing what execution units
1491 (EUs) are available. It's a single 32-bit cell. EU information
1492 should be encoded following the SEC's Descriptor Header Dword

1494
1495 bit 0 = reserved - should be 0
1496 bit 1 = set if SEC has the ARC4 EU (AFEU)

1555
1556 i) Freescale QUICC Engine module (QE)
1557 This represents qe module that is installed on PowerQUICC II Pro.
1558
1559 NOTE: This is an interim binding; it should be updated to fit
1560 in with the CPM binding later in this document.
1561
1562 Basically, it is a bus of devices, that could act more or less
1563 as a complete entity (UCC, USB etc ). All of them should be siblings on
1564 the "root" qe node, using the common properties from there.
1565 The description below applies to the qe of MPC8360 and
1566 more nodes and properties would be extended in the future.

1868 - device-id : Contains the flash chip's device id (1 byte).
1869
1870 In addition to the information on the flash bank itself, the
1871 device tree may optionally contain additional information
1872 describing partitions of the flash address space. This can be
1873 used on platforms which have strong conventions about which
1874 portions of the flash are used for what purposes, but which don't
1875 use an on-flash partition table such as RedBoot.
1876
1877 Each partition is represented as a sub-node of the flash device.
1878 Each node's name represents the name of the corresponding
1879 partition of the flash device.
1880
1881 Flash partitions
1882 - reg : The partition's offset and size within the flash bank.
1883 - label : (optional) The label / name for this flash partition.
1884 If omitted, the label is taken from the node name (excluding

1886 - read-only : (optional) This parameter, if present, is a hint to
1887 Linux that this flash partition should only be mounted
1888 read-only. This is usually used for flash partitions
1889 containing early-boot firmware images or data which should not
1890 be clobbered.

1931 Example:
1932
1933 global-utilities@e0000 { /* global utilities block */
1934 compatible = "fsl,mpc8548-guts";
1935 reg = <e0000 1000>;

2094 #size-cells = <0>;
2095 compatible = "fsl,cpm2-usb";
2096 reg = <11b60 18 8b00 100>;
2097 interrupts = <b 8>;
2098 interrupt-parent = <&PIC>;
2099 fsl,cpm-command = <2e600000>;
2100 };
2101
2102 viii) Multi-User RAM (MURAM)
2103
2104 The multi-user/dual-ported RAM is expressed as a bus under the CPM node.
2105
2106 Ranges must be set up subject to the following restrictions:
2107
2108 - Children's reg nodes must be offsets from the start of all muram, even
2109 if the user-data area does not begin at zero.
2110 - If multiple range entries are used, the difference between the parent
2111 address and the child address must be the same in all, so that a single
2112 mapping can cover them all while maintaining the ability to determine
2113 CPM-side offsets with pointer subtraction. It is recommended that
2114 multiple range entries not be used.
2115 - A child address of zero must be translatable, even if no reg resources
2116 contain it.
2117
2118 A child "data" node must exist, compatible with "fsl,cpm-muram-data", to
2119 indicate the portion of muram that is usable by the OS for arbitrary
2120 purposes. The data node may have an arbitrary number of reg resources,
2121 all of which contribute to the allocatable muram pool.
2122
2123 Example, based on mpc8272:
2124
2125 muram@0 {
2126 #address-cells = <1>;
2127 #size-cells = <1>;
2128 ranges = <0 0 10000>;
2129
2130 data@0 {
2131 compatible = "fsl,cpm-muram-data";
2132 reg = <0 2000 9800 800>;
2133 };
2134 };
2135
2136 m) Chipselect/Local Bus
2137
2138 Properties:
2139 - name : Should be localbus
2140 - #address-cells : Should be either two or three. The first cell is the
2141 chipselect number, and the remaining cells are the
2142 offset into the chipselect.
2143 - #size-cells : Either one or two, depending on how large each chipselect
2144 can be.
2145 - ranges : Each range corresponds to a single chipselect, and cover
2146 the entire access window as configured.
2147
2148 Example:
2149 localbus@f0010100 {
2150 compatible = "fsl,mpc8272-localbus",
2151 "fsl,pq2-localbus";
2152 #address-cells = <2>;
2153 #size-cells = <1>;
2154 reg = <f0010100 40>;
2155
2156 ranges = <0 0 fe000000 02000000
2157 1 0 f4500000 00008000>;
2158
2159 flash@0,0 {
2160 compatible = "jedec-flash";
2161 reg = <0 0 2000000>;
2162 bank-width = <4>;
2163 device-width = <1>;
2164 };
2165
2166 board-control@1,0 {
2167 reg = <1 0 20>;
2168 compatible = "fsl,mpc8272ads-bcsr";
2169 };
2170 };
2171
2172
2173 n) 4xx/Axon EMAC ethernet nodes
2174
2175 The EMAC ethernet controller in IBM and AMCC 4xx chips, and also
2176 the Axon bridge. To operate this needs to interact with a ths
2177 special McMAL DMA controller, and sometimes an RGMII or ZMII
2178 interface. In addition to the nodes and properties described
2179 below, the node for the OPB bus on which the EMAC sits must have a

2232 RGMII channel is used by this EMAC.
2233 Fox Axon: present, whatever value is appropriate for each
2234 EMAC, that is the content of the current (bogus) "phy-port"
2235 property.
2236
2237 Optional properties:

2240 - phy-map : 1 cell, optional, bitmap of addresses to probe the PHY
2241 for, used if phy-address is absent. bit 0x00000001 is
2242 MDIO address 0.
2243 For Axon it can be absent, thouugh my current driver
2244 doesn't handle phy-address yet so for now, keep
2245 0x00ffffff in it.

2261 compatible = "ibm,emac-440gp", "ibm,emac";
2262 interrupt-parent = <&UIC1>;
2263 interrupts = <1c 4 1d 4>;
2264 reg = <40000800 70>;
2265 local-mac-address = [00 04 AC E3 1B 1E];

2267 mal-tx-channel = <0 1>;
2268 mal-rx-channel = <0>;
2269 cell-index = <0>;
2270 max-frame-size = <5dc>;
2271 rx-fifo-size = <1000>;

2277 };
2278
2279 ii) McMAL node
2280
2281 Required properties:
2282 - device_type : "dma-controller"
2283 - compatible : compatible list, containing 2 entries, first is
2284 "ibm,mcmal-CHIP" where CHIP is the host ASIC (like
2285 emac) and the second is either "ibm,mcmal" or

2288 - interrupts : <interrupt mapping for the MAL interrupts sources:
2289 5 sources: tx_eob, rx_eob, serr, txde, rxde>.
2290 For Axon: This is _different_ from the current
2291 firmware. We use the "delayed" interrupts for txeob
2292 and rxeob. Thus we end up with mapping those 5 MPIC
2293 interrupts, all level positive sensitive: 10, 11, 32,
2294 33, 34 (in decimal)
2295 - dcr-reg : < DCR registers range >
2296 - dcr-parent : if needed for dcr-reg

2313 "ibm,rgmii-CHIP" where CHIP is the host ASIC (like
2314 EMAC) and the second is "ibm,rgmii".
2315 For Axon, "ibm,rgmii-axon","ibm,rgmii"
2316 - reg : <registers mapping>
2317 - revision : as provided by the RGMII new version register if
2318 available.
2319 For Axon: 0x0000012a
2320
2321 o) Xilinx IP cores
2322
2323 The Xilinx EDK toolchain ships with a set of IP cores (devices) for use
2324 in Xilinx Spartan and Virtex FPGAs. The devices cover the whole range
2325 of standard device types (network, serial, etc.) and miscellanious
2326 devices (gpio, LCD, spi, etc). Also, since these devices are
2327 implemented within the fpga fabric every instance of the device can be
2328 synthesised with different options that change the behaviour.
2329
2330 Each IP-core has a set of parameters which the FPGA designer can use to
2331 control how the core is synthesized. Historically, the EDK tool would
2332 extract the device parameters relevant to device drivers and copy them
2333 into an 'xparameters.h' in the form of #define symbols. This tells the
2334 device drivers how the IP cores are configured, but it requres the kernel
2335 to be recompiled every time the FPGA bitstream is resynthesized.
2336
2337 The new approach is to export the parameters into the device tree and
2338 generate a new device tree each time the FPGA bitstream changes. The
2339 parameters which used to be exported as #defines will now become
2340 properties of the device node. In general, device nodes for IP-cores
2341 will take the following form:
2342
2343 (name): (generic-name)@(base-address) {
2344 compatible = "xlnx,(ip-core-name)-(HW_VER)"
2345 [, (list of compatible devices), ...];
2346 reg = <(baseaddr) (size)>;
2347 interrupt-parent = <&interrupt-controller-phandle>;
2348 interrupts = < ... >;
2349 xlnx,(parameter1) = "(string-value)";
2350 xlnx,(parameter2) = <(int-value)>;
2351 };
2352
2353 (generic-name): an open firmware-style name that describes the
2354 generic class of device. Preferably, this is one word, such
2355 as 'serial' or 'ethernet'.
2356 (ip-core-name): the name of the ip block (given after the BEGIN
2357 directive in system.mhs). Should be in lowercase
2358 and all underscores '_' converted to dashes '-'.
2359 (name): is derived from the "PARAMETER INSTANCE" value.
2360 (parameter#): C_* parameters from system.mhs. The C_ prefix is
2361 dropped from the parameter name, the name is converted
2362 to lowercase and all underscore '_' characters are
2363 converted to dashes '-'.
2364 (baseaddr): the baseaddr parameter value (often named C_BASEADDR).
2365 (HW_VER): from the HW_VER parameter.
2366 (size): the address range size (often C_HIGHADDR - C_BASEADDR + 1).
2367
2368 Typically, the compatible list will include the exact IP core version
2369 followed by an older IP core version which implements the same
2370 interface or any other device with the same interface.
2371
2372 'reg', 'interrupt-parent' and 'interrupts' are all optional properties.
2373
2374 For example, the following block from system.mhs:
2375
2376 BEGIN opb_uartlite
2377 PARAMETER INSTANCE = opb_uartlite_0
2378 PARAMETER HW_VER = 1.00.b
2379 PARAMETER C_BAUDRATE = 115200
2380 PARAMETER C_DATA_BITS = 8
2381 PARAMETER C_ODD_PARITY = 0
2382 PARAMETER C_USE_PARITY = 0
2383 PARAMETER C_CLK_FREQ = 50000000
2384 PARAMETER C_BASEADDR = 0xEC100000
2385 PARAMETER C_HIGHADDR = 0xEC10FFFF
2386 BUS_INTERFACE SOPB = opb_7
2387 PORT OPB_Clk = CLK_50MHz
2388 PORT Interrupt = opb_uartlite_0_Interrupt
2389 PORT RX = opb_uartlite_0_RX
2390 PORT TX = opb_uartlite_0_TX
2391 PORT OPB_Rst = sys_bus_reset_0
2392 END
2393
2394 becomes the following device tree node:
2395
2396 opb_uartlite_0: serial@ec100000 {
2397 device_type = "serial";
2398 compatible = "xlnx,opb-uartlite-1.00.b";
2399 reg = <ec100000 10000>;
2400 interrupt-parent = <&opb_intc_0>;
2401 interrupts = <1 0>; // got this from the opb_intc parameters
2402 current-speed = <d#115200>; // standard serial device prop
2403 clock-frequency = <d#50000000>; // standard serial device prop
2404 xlnx,data-bits = <8>;
2405 xlnx,odd-parity = <0>;
2406 xlnx,use-parity = <0>;
2407 };
2408
2409 Some IP cores actually implement 2 or more logical devices. In
2410 this case, the device should still describe the whole IP core with
2411 a single node and add a child node for each logical device. The
2412 ranges property can be used to translate from parent IP-core to the
2413 registers of each device. In addition, the parent node should be
2414 compatible with the bus type 'xlnx,compound', and should contain
2415 #address-cells and #size-cells, as with any other bus. (Note: this
2416 makes the assumption that both logical devices have the same bus
2417 binding. If this is not true, then separate nodes should be used
2418 for each logical device). The 'cell-index' property can be used to
2419 enumerate logical devices within an IP core. For example, the
2420 following is the system.mhs entry for the dual ps2 controller found
2421 on the ml403 reference design.
2422
2423 BEGIN opb_ps2_dual_ref
2424 PARAMETER INSTANCE = opb_ps2_dual_ref_0
2425 PARAMETER HW_VER = 1.00.a
2426 PARAMETER C_BASEADDR = 0xA9000000
2427 PARAMETER C_HIGHADDR = 0xA9001FFF
2428 BUS_INTERFACE SOPB = opb_v20_0
2429 PORT Sys_Intr1 = ps2_1_intr
2430 PORT Sys_Intr2 = ps2_2_intr
2431 PORT Clkin1 = ps2_clk_rx_1
2432 PORT Clkin2 = ps2_clk_rx_2
2433 PORT Clkpd1 = ps2_clk_tx_1
2434 PORT Clkpd2 = ps2_clk_tx_2
2435 PORT Rx1 = ps2_d_rx_1
2436 PORT Rx2 = ps2_d_rx_2
2437 PORT Txpd1 = ps2_d_tx_1
2438 PORT Txpd2 = ps2_d_tx_2
2439 END
2440
2441 It would result in the following device tree nodes:
2442
2443 opb_ps2_dual_ref_0: opb-ps2-dual-ref@a9000000 {
2444 #address-cells = <1>;
2445 #size-cells = <1>;
2446 compatible = "xlnx,compound";
2447 ranges = <0 a9000000 2000>;
2448 // If this device had extra parameters, then they would
2449 // go here.
2450 ps2@0 {
2451 compatible = "xlnx,opb-ps2-dual-ref-1.00.a";
2452 reg = <0 40>;
2453 interrupt-parent = <&opb_intc_0>;
2454 interrupts = <3 0>;
2455 cell-index = <0>;
2456 };
2457 ps2@1000 {
2458 compatible = "xlnx,opb-ps2-dual-ref-1.00.a";
2459 reg = <1000 40>;
2460 interrupt-parent = <&opb_intc_0>;
2461 interrupts = <3 0>;
2462 cell-index = <0>;
2463 };
2464 };
2465
2466 Also, the system.mhs file defines bus attachments from the processor
2467 to the devices. The device tree structure should reflect the bus
2468 attachments. Again an example; this system.mhs fragment:
2469
2470 BEGIN ppc405_virtex4
2471 PARAMETER INSTANCE = ppc405_0
2472 PARAMETER HW_VER = 1.01.a
2473 BUS_INTERFACE DPLB = plb_v34_0
2474 BUS_INTERFACE IPLB = plb_v34_0
2475 END
2476
2477 BEGIN opb_intc
2478 PARAMETER INSTANCE = opb_intc_0
2479 PARAMETER HW_VER = 1.00.c
2480 PARAMETER C_BASEADDR = 0xD1000FC0
2481 PARAMETER C_HIGHADDR = 0xD1000FDF
2482 BUS_INTERFACE SOPB = opb_v20_0
2483 END
2484
2485 BEGIN opb_uart16550

2489 PARAMETER C_HIGHADDR = 0xa0001FFF

2491 END
2492
2493 BEGIN plb_v34
2494 PARAMETER INSTANCE = plb_v34_0
2495 PARAMETER HW_VER = 1.02.a
2496 END
2497
2498 BEGIN plb_bram_if_cntlr

2500 PARAMETER HW_VER = 1.00.b
2501 PARAMETER C_BASEADDR = 0xFFFF0000
2502 PARAMETER C_HIGHADDR = 0xFFFFFFFF
2503 BUS_INTERFACE SPLB = plb_v34_0

2505

2517 BUS_INTERFACE SPLB = plb_v34_0
2518 BUS_INTERFACE MOPB = opb_v20_0
2519 END
2520
2521 Gives this device tree (some properties removed for clarity):
2522
2523 plb@0 {
2524 #address-cells = <1>;
2525 #size-cells = <1>;
2526 compatible = "xlnx,plb-v34-1.02.a";

2551
2552 That covers the general approach to binding xilinx IP cores into the
2553 device tree. The following are bindings for specific devices:
2554
2555 i) Xilinx ML300 Framebuffer
2556

2943 VII - Marvell Discovery mv64[345]6x System Controller chips
2944 ===========================================================
2945
2946 The Marvell mv64[345]60 series of system controller chips contain
2947 many of the peripherals needed to implement a complete computer
2948 system. In this section, we define device tree nodes to describe
2949 the system controller chip itself and each of the peripherals
2950 which it contains. Compatible string values for each node are
2951 prefixed with the string "marvell,", for Marvell Technology Group Ltd.
2952
2953 1) The /system-controller node
2954
2955 This node is used to represent the system-controller and must be
2956 present when the system uses a system contller chip. The top-level
2957 system-controller node contains information that is global to all
2958 devices within the system controller chip. The node name begins
2959 with "system-controller" followed by the unit address, which is
2960 the base address of the memory-mapped register set for the system
2961 controller chip.
2962
2963 Required properties:
2964
2965 - ranges : Describes the translation of system controller addresses
2966 for memory mapped registers.
2967 - clock-frequency: Contains the main clock frequency for the system
2968 controller chip.
2969 - reg : This property defines the address and size of the
2970 memory-mapped registers contained within the system controller
2971 chip. The address specified in the "reg" property should match
2972 the unit address of the system-controller node.
2973 - #address-cells : Address representation for system controller
2974 devices. This field represents the number of cells needed to
2975 represent the address of the memory-mapped registers of devices
2976 within the system controller chip.

2985 as, "mv64360", "mv64460", or "mv64560".
2986 - compatible : A string identifying the compatibility identifiers
2987 of the system controller chip.
2988
2989 The system-controller node contains child nodes for each system
2990 controller device that the platform uses. Nodes should not be created
2991 for devices which exist on the system controller chip but are not used
2992
2993 Example Marvell Discovery mv64360 system-controller node:
2994
2995 system-controller@f1000000 { /* Marvell Discovery mv64360 */
2996 #address-cells = <1>;
2997 #size-cells = <1>;

3011
3012 2) Child nodes of /system-controller
3013
3014 a) Marvell Discovery MDIO bus
3015
3016 The MDIO is a bus to which the PHY devices are connected. For each
3017 device that exists on this bus, a child node should be created. See
3018 the definition of the PHY node below for an example of how to define
3019 a PHY.

3040
3041 b) Marvell Discovery ethernet controller
3042
3043 The Discover ethernet controller is described with two levels
3044 of nodes. The first level describes an ethernet silicon block
3045 and the second level describes up to 3 ethernet nodes within
3046 that block. The reason for the multiple levels is that the
3047 registers for the node are interleaved within a single set
3048 of registers. The "ethernet-block" level describes the
3049 shared register set, and the "ethernet" nodes describe ethernet
3050 port-specific properties.

3463
3464 VIII - Specifying interrupt information for devices
3465 ===================================================
3466
3467 The device tree represents the busses and devices of a hardware
3468 system in a form similar to the physical bus topology of the
3469 hardware.
3470
3471 In addition, a logical 'interrupt tree' exists which represents the
3472 hierarchy and routing of interrupts in the hardware.
3473
3474 The interrupt tree model is fully described in the
3475 document "Open Firmware Recommended Practice: Interrupt
3476 Mapping Version 0.9". The document is available at:
3477 <http://playground.sun.com/1275/practice>.
3478
3479 1) interrupts property
3480 ----------------------
3481
3482 Devices that generate interrupts to a single interrupt controller
3483 should use the conventional OF representation described in the
3484 OF interrupt mapping documentation.
3485
3486 Each device which generates interrupts must have an 'interrupt'
3487 property. The interrupt property value is an arbitrary number of
3488 of 'interrupt specifier' values which describe the interrupt or
3489 interrupts for the device.
3490
3491 The encoding of an interrupt specifier is determined by the
3492 interrupt domain in which the device is located in the
3493 interrupt tree. The root of an interrupt domain specifies in
3494 its #interrupt-cells property the number of 32-bit cells
3495 required to encode an interrupt specifier. See the OF interrupt
3496 mapping documentation for a detailed description of domains.
3497
3498 For example, the binding for the OpenPIC interrupt controller
3499 specifies an #interrupt-cells value of 2 to encode the interrupt
3500 number and level/sense information. All interrupt children in an
3501 OpenPIC interrupt domain use 2 cells per interrupt in their interrupts
3502 property.
3503
3504 The PCI bus binding specifies a #interrupt-cell value of 1 to encode
3505 which interrupt pin (INTA,INTB,INTC,INTD) is used.
3506
3507 2) interrupt-parent property
3508 ----------------------------
3509
3510 The interrupt-parent property is specified to define an explicit
3511 link between a device node and its interrupt parent in
3512 the interrupt tree. The value of interrupt-parent is the
3513 phandle of the parent node.
3514
3515 If the interrupt-parent property is not defined for a node, it's
3516 interrupt parent is assumed to be an ancestor in the node's
3517 _device tree_ hierarchy.
3518
3519 3) OpenPIC Interrupt Controllers
3520 --------------------------------
3521
3522 OpenPIC interrupt controllers require 2 cells to encode
3523 interrupt information. The first cell defines the interrupt
3524 number. The second cell defines the sense and level
3525 information.
3526
3527 Sense and level information should be encoded as follows:
3528
3529 0 = low to high edge sensitive type enabled
3530 1 = active low level sensitive type enabled
3531 2 = active high level sensitive type enabled
3532 3 = high to low edge sensitive type enabled
3533
3534 4) ISA Interrupt Controllers
3535 ----------------------------
3536
3537 ISA PIC interrupt controllers require 2 cells to encode
3538 interrupt information. The first cell defines the interrupt
3539 number. The second cell defines the sense and level
3540 information.
3541
3542 ISA PIC interrupt controllers should adhere to the ISA PIC
3543 encodings listed below:
3544
3545 0 = active low level sensitive type enabled
3546 1 = active high level sensitive type enabled
3547 2 = high to low edge sensitive type enabled
3548 3 = low to high edge sensitive type enabled
3549
3550 VIII - Specifying GPIO information for devices
3551 ==============================================
3552
3553 1) gpios property
3554 -----------------
3555
3556 Nodes that makes use of GPIOs should define them using `gpios' property,
3557 format of which is: <&gpio-controller1-phandle gpio1-specifier
3558 &gpio-controller2-phandle gpio2-specifier
3559 0 /* holes are permitted, means no GPIO 3 */
3560 &gpio-controller4-phandle gpio4-specifier
3561 ...>;
3562
3563 Note that gpio-specifier length is controller dependent.
3564
3565 gpio-specifier may encode: bank, pin position inside the bank,
3566 whether pin is open-drain and whether pin is logically inverted.
3567
3568 Example of the node using GPIOs:
3569
3570 node {
3571 gpios = <&qe_pio_e 18 0>;
3572 };
3573
3574 In this example gpio-specifier is "18 0" and encodes GPIO pin number,
3575 and empty GPIO flags as accepted by the "qe_pio_e" gpio-controller.
3576
3577 2) gpio-controller nodes
3578 ------------------------
3579
3580 Every GPIO controller node must have #gpio-cells property defined,
3581 this information will be used to translate gpio-specifiers.
3582
3583 Example of two SOC GPIO banks defined as gpio-controller nodes:
3584
3585 qe_pio_a: gpio-controller@1400 {
3586 #gpio-cells = <2>;
3587 compatible = "fsl,qe-pario-bank-a", "fsl,qe-pario-bank";
3588 reg = <0x1400 0x18>;
3589 gpio-controller;
3590 };
3591
3592 qe_pio_e: gpio-controller@1460 {
3593 #gpio-cells = <2>;
3594 compatible = "fsl,qe-pario-bank-e", "fsl,qe-pario-bank";
3595 reg = <0x1460 0x18>;
3596 gpio-controller;
3597 };
3598

3601
3602 Note that the #address-cells and #size-cells for the SoC node
3603 in this example have been explicitly listed; these are likely
