OK. They are both on L3 main so that won't cause any issues for separate interconnect driver instances. As they are still separate targets flushing a posted write to one area will not flush anything to the other. > > The CTRL_CORE_CONTROL_IO_2 needs seems like a shared clock register that > > needs to be accessed using the clock framework most likely. > > > > Not shared clock. > The CTRL_CORE_CONTROL_IO_2[10:8] QSPI_MEMMAPPED_CS bit fields provides a > functionality for remapping the previously described address space which > starts at 0x5C000000 L3_MAIN address to one of the four supported chip > selects. > How about using syscon to access CTRL_CORE_CONTROL_IO_2? A separate driver implementing some Linux generic framework would be idael :) But if that does not fit, yeah then syscon makes sense as that IO range will be on separate interconnect driver (and clock and possibly power domain) instances eventually.
