[PATCH] dmaengine: usb-dmac: Document SoC specific bindings

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 




In general Renesas hardware is not documented to the extent where the
relationship between IP blocks on different SoCs can be assumed although
they may appear to operate the same way. Furthermore the documentation
typically does not specify a version for individual IP blocks. For these
reasons a convention of using the SoC name in place of a version and
providing SoC-specific compat strings has been adopted.

Although not universally liked this convention is used in the bindings for
most drivers for Renesas hardware. The purpose of this patch is to
update the Renesas USB DMA Controller driver to follow this convention.

* r8a7792 (R-Car V2H) is omitted as my reading of the documentation
  is that Renesas USB-DMAC does not exist on that SoC
* r8a7795 (R-Car H2) is omitted as its unclear to me on the compatibility
  of USB-DMAC that SoC

* Once this has been merged I intend to provide follow-up patches
  to use these new compat strings in the relevant dtsi files.
