Altera Mailbox Driver
|
=====================
|
|
Required properties:
|
- compatible : "altr,mailbox-1.0".
|
- reg : physical base address of the mailbox and length of
|
memory mapped region.
|
- #mbox-cells: Common mailbox binding property to identify the number
|
of cells required for the mailbox specifier. Should be 1.
|
|
Optional properties:
|
- interrupts : interrupt number. The interrupt specifier format
|
depends on the interrupt controller parent.
|
|
Example:
|
mbox_tx: mailbox@100 {
|
compatible = "altr,mailbox-1.0";
|
reg = <0x100 0x8>;
|
interrupt-parent = < &gic_0 >;
|
interrupts = <5>;
|
#mbox-cells = <1>;
|
};
|
|
mbox_rx: mailbox@200 {
|
compatible = "altr,mailbox-1.0";
|
reg = <0x200 0x8>;
|
interrupt-parent = < &gic_0 >;
|
interrupts = <6>;
|
#mbox-cells = <1>;
|
};
|
|
Mailbox client
|
===============
|
"mboxes" and the optional "mbox-names" (please see
|
Documentation/devicetree/bindings/mailbox/mailbox.txt for details). Each value
|
of the mboxes property should contain a phandle to the mailbox controller
|
device node and second argument is the channel index. It must be 0 (hardware
|
support only one channel).The equivalent "mbox-names" property value can be
|
used to give a name to the communication channel to be used by the client user.
|
|
Example:
|
mclient0: mclient0@400 {
|
compatible = "client-1.0";
|
reg = <0x400 0x10>;
|
mbox-names = "mbox-tx", "mbox-rx";
|
mboxes = <&mbox_tx 0>,
|
<&mbox_rx 0>;
|
};
