| UniPhier System Bus |
| |
| The UniPhier System Bus is an external bus that connects on-board devices to |
| the UniPhier SoC. It is a simple (semi-)parallel bus with address, data, and |
| some control signals. It supports up to 8 banks (chip selects). |
| |
| Before any access to the bus, the bus controller must be configured; the bus |
| controller registers provide the control for the translation from the offset |
| within each bank to the CPU-viewed address. The needed setup includes the base |
| address, the size of each bank. Optionally, some timing parameters can be |
| optimized for faster bus access. |
| |
| Required properties: |
| - compatible: should be "socionext,uniphier-system-bus". |
| - reg: offset and length of the register set for the bus controller device. |
| - #address-cells: should be 2. The first cell is the bank number (chip select). |
| The second cell is the address offset within the bank. |
| - #size-cells: should be 1. |
| - ranges: should provide a proper address translation from the System Bus to |
| the parent bus. |
| |
| Note: |
| The address region(s) that can be assigned for the System Bus is implementation |
| defined. Some SoCs can use 0x00000000-0x0fffffff and 0x40000000-0x4fffffff, |
| while other SoCs can only use 0x40000000-0x4fffffff. There might be additional |
| limitations depending on SoCs and the boot mode. The address translation is |
| arbitrary as long as the banks are assigned in the supported address space with |
| the required alignment and they do not overlap one another. |
| For example, it is possible to map: |
| bank 0 to 0x42000000-0x43ffffff, bank 5 to 0x46000000-0x46ffffff |
| It is also possible to map: |
| bank 0 to 0x48000000-0x49ffffff, bank 5 to 0x44000000-0x44ffffff |
| There is no reason to stick to a particular translation mapping, but the |
| "ranges" property should provide a "reasonable" default that is known to work. |
| The software should initialize the bus controller according to it. |
| |
| Example: |
| |
| system-bus { |
| compatible = "socionext,uniphier-system-bus"; |
| reg = <0x58c00000 0x400>; |
| #address-cells = <2>; |
| #size-cells = <1>; |
| ranges = <1 0x00000000 0x42000000 0x02000000 |
| 5 0x00000000 0x46000000 0x01000000>; |
| |
| ethernet@1,01f00000 { |
| compatible = "smsc,lan9115"; |
| reg = <1 0x01f00000 0x1000>; |
| interrupts = <0 48 4> |
| phy-mode = "mii"; |
| }; |
| |
| uart@5,00200000 { |
| compatible = "ns16550a"; |
| reg = <5 0x00200000 0x20>; |
| interrupts = <0 49 4> |
| clock-frequency = <12288000>; |
| }; |
| }; |
| |
| In this example, |
| - the Ethernet device is connected at the offset 0x01f00000 of CS1 and |
| mapped to 0x43f00000 of the parent bus. |
| - the UART device is connected at the offset 0x00200000 of CS5 and |
| mapped to 0x46200000 of the parent bus. |
