So there are a lot of blocks mentioned there, yet the binding doesn't

Thanks for the review Stephen.

No, the binding certainly isn't complete, it doesn't describe the all
available IP blocks. There are separate MMIO address regions for each

...

So while we could list all the devices, we decided not to do so.
Because it is not needed by the current software and we may miss some
details for case where the whole subsystem is controlled by the host
CPU (however such scenario is extremely unlikely AFAICT) which then
would be impossible or hard to change.


Yes, that's probably a good approach.


I guess we should list all available devices, similarly as it's done
in Documentation/devicetree/bindings/gpu/nvidia,tegra20-host1x.txt.

And then should they just be disabled through the status property
if they are not needed in the Linux driver ? I guess it is more
sensible than marking them as optional and then not listing them
in dts at all ?


If you can define complete bindings for those nodes, it might make sense
to do that. If the devices are perhaps complex to represent and hence
you might not be able to come up with complete bindings for them right
now, it may indeed be better to simply not mention the devices you don't
care about for now.


We would prefer to start with a minimal binding, this would minimize
possible issues in future IMHO, as the subsystem is pretty complex.
Then, if detailed H/W description is required the firmware would need
to be updated, which would have been backward compatible.
We could probably come up with a complete binding, but there is a good
chance something could be done wrong, as that couldn't be actually
tested. It's not trivial to make this all work on the host CPU while
most of the detailed H/W knowledge stays on the firmware teams side.

I think you need a compatible value for this. How else is the node
identified? The node name probably should not be used for identification.


Of course the node name is currently used for identification. There is no
compatible property because this pmu node is used to get hold of only part
of the Power Management Unit registers, specific to the FIMC-IS.
The PMU has more registers that also other drivers would be interested in,
e.g. clocks or USB.


I believe the correct way to solve this is for there to be a standalone
PMU node at the appropriate location in DT, and for the FIMC bindings to
reference that other node by phandle.

Right now, the FIMC driver SW can manually follow the phandle, look at
the reg property, and map that itself. Later down the road, you could
instantiate a true PMU driver, and have the FIMC driver look up that
driver, and call APIs on it. This change can be made without requiring
any changes to the DT binding. That way, you aren't introducing a fake
PMU node into the FIMC bindings just to satisfy internal Linux driver
details.


That sounds reasonable. It lets us to keep the DT binding stable and
at the same move forward with the FIMC-IS while the PMU part is being
worked on. Thanks.

Thanks for the review Stephen.

No, the binding certainly isn't complete, it doesn't describe the all
available IP blocks. There are separate MMIO address regions for each
block for the main CPUs and for the Cortex-A5 which is supposed to run
firmware that controls the whole subsystem. So in theory all those IP
blocks should be listed as device tree nodes, with at least their
compatible, reg and interrupts properties. However due to most of the
sub-devices being controlled by the firmware the current Linux driver
for this whole FIMC-IS subsystem doesn't need to now exact details
of each internal data processing block. The is a mailbox interface
used for communication between host CPU and the FIMC-IS CPU.

So while we could list all the devices, we decided not to do so.
Because it is not needed by the current software and we may miss some
details for case where the whole subsystem is controlled by the host
CPU (however such scenario is extremely unlikely AFAICT) which then
would be impossible or hard to change.

I guess we should list all available devices, similarly as it's done
in Documentation/devicetree/bindings/gpu/nvidia,tegra20-host1x.txt.

And then should they just be disabled through the status property
if they are not needed in the Linux driver ? I guess it is more
sensible than marking them as optional and then not listing them
in dts at all ?

Of course the node name is currently used for identification. There is no

of the Power Management Unit registers, specific to the FIMC-IS.
The PMU has more registers that also other drivers would be interested in,
e.g. clocks or USB.

I have been considering exposing the PMU registers through a syscon-like
interface and having a phandle pointing to it in the relevant device nodes.

Adding compatible property might not be a good approach. It would have
been hard to map this to a separate device described in the SoC's
datasheet. Registers specific to the FIMC-IS are not contiguous in the
PMU MMIO region.
