1System Control and Management Interface (SCMI) Message Protocol
2----------------------------------------------------------
3
4The SCMI is intended to allow agents such as OSPM to manage various functions
5that are provided by the hardware platform it is running on, including power
6and performance functions.
7
8This binding is intended to define the interface the firmware implementing
9the SCMI as described in ARM document number ARM DEN 0056A ("ARM System Control
10and Management Interface Platform Design Document")[0] provide for OSPM in
11the device tree.
12
13Required properties:
14
15The scmi node with the following properties shall be under the /firmware/ node.
16
17- compatible : shall be "arm,scmi" or "arm,scmi-smc" for smc/hvc transports
18- mboxes: List of phandle and mailbox channel specifiers. It should contain
19	  exactly one or two mailboxes, one for transmitting messages("tx")
20	  and another optional for receiving the notifications("rx") if
21	  supported.
22- shmem : List of phandle pointing to the shared memory(SHM) area as per
23	  generic mailbox client binding.
24- #address-cells : should be '1' if the device has sub-nodes, maps to
25	  protocol identifier for a given sub-node.
26- #size-cells : should be '0' as 'reg' property doesn't have any size
27	  associated with it.
28- arm,smc-id : SMC id required when using smc or hvc transports
29
30Optional properties:
31
32- mbox-names: shall be "tx" or "rx" depending on mboxes entries.
33
34- interrupts : when using smc or hvc transports, this optional
35	 property indicates that msg completion by the platform is indicated
36	 by an interrupt rather than by the return of the smc call. This
37	 should not be used except when the platform requires such behavior.
38
39- interrupt-names : if "interrupts" is present, interrupt-names must also
40	 be present and have the value "a2p".
41
42See Documentation/devicetree/bindings/mailbox/mailbox.txt for more details
43about the generic mailbox controller and client driver bindings.
44
45The mailbox is the only permitted method of calling the SCMI firmware.
46Mailbox doorbell is used as a mechanism to alert the presence of a
47messages and/or notification.
48
49Each protocol supported shall have a sub-node with corresponding compatible
50as described in the following sections. If the platform supports dedicated
51communication channel for a particular protocol, the 3 properties namely:
52mboxes, mbox-names and shmem shall be present in the sub-node corresponding
53to that protocol.
54
55Clock/Performance bindings for the clocks/OPPs based on SCMI Message Protocol
56------------------------------------------------------------
57
58This binding uses the common clock binding[1].
59
60Required properties:
61- #clock-cells : Should be 1. Contains the Clock ID value used by SCMI commands.
62
63Power domain bindings for the power domains based on SCMI Message Protocol
64------------------------------------------------------------
65
66This binding for the SCMI power domain providers uses the generic power
67domain binding[2].
68
69Required properties:
70 - #power-domain-cells : Should be 1. Contains the device or the power
71			 domain ID value used by SCMI commands.
72
73Regulator bindings for the SCMI Regulator based on SCMI Message Protocol
74------------------------------------------------------------
75An SCMI Regulator is permanently bound to a well defined SCMI Voltage Domain,
76and should be always positioned as a root regulator.
77It does not support any current operation.
78
79SCMI Regulators are grouped under a 'regulators' node which in turn is a child
80of the SCMI Voltage protocol node inside the desired SCMI instance node.
81
82This binding uses the common regulator binding[6].
83
84Required properties:
85 - reg : shall identify an existent SCMI Voltage Domain.
86
87Sensor bindings for the sensors based on SCMI Message Protocol
88--------------------------------------------------------------
89SCMI provides an API to access the various sensors on the SoC.
90
91Required properties:
92- #thermal-sensor-cells: should be set to 1. This property follows the
93			 thermal device tree bindings[3].
94
95			 Valid cell values are raw identifiers (Sensor ID)
96			 as used by the firmware. Refer to  platform details
97			 for your implementation for the IDs to use.
98
99Reset signal bindings for the reset domains based on SCMI Message Protocol
100------------------------------------------------------------
101
102This binding for the SCMI reset domain providers uses the generic reset
103signal binding[5].
104
105Required properties:
106 - #reset-cells : Should be 1. Contains the reset domain ID value used
107		  by SCMI commands.
108
109SRAM and Shared Memory for SCMI
110-------------------------------
111
112A small area of SRAM is reserved for SCMI communication between application
113processors and SCP.
114
115The properties should follow the generic mmio-sram description found in [4]
116
117Each sub-node represents the reserved area for SCMI.
118
119Required sub-node properties:
120- reg : The base offset and size of the reserved area with the SRAM
121- compatible : should be "arm,scmi-shmem" for Non-secure SRAM based
122	       shared memory
