It is mentioned only in v0.5 h/w manual. v0.52 manual introduced DRIF chapter but then some of the old references were missing :-(. There are few more doc anomalies, which I shall document in the next version of the patch.

You are right. I have added both dmac1 & 2 now.

I agree & thanks for the suggestion. Is the below model looks anything closer? Appreciate your inputs.
dtsi
-------
drif00: rif@e6f40000 {
compatible = "renesas,r8a7795-drif",
"renesas,rcar-gen3-drif";
reg = <0 0xe6f40000 0 0x64>;
interrupts = <GIC_SPI 12 IRQ_TYPE_LEVEL_HIGH>;
clocks = <&cpg CPG_MOD 515>;
clock-names = "fck";
dmas = <&dmac1 0x20>, <&dmac2 0x20>;
dma-names = "rx";
power-domains = <&sysc R8A7795_PD_ALWAYS_ON>;
status = "disabled";
};
drif01: rif@e6f50000 {
compatible = "renesas,r8a7795-drif",
"renesas,rcar-gen3-drif";
reg = <0 0xe6f50000 0 0x64>;
interrupts = <GIC_SPI 13 IRQ_TYPE_LEVEL_HIGH>;
clocks = <&cpg CPG_MOD 514>;
clock-names = "fck";
dmas = <&dmac1 0x22>, <&dmac2 0x22>;
dma-names = "rx";
power-domains = <&sysc R8A7795_PD_ALWAYS_ON>;
status = "disabled";
};
drif0: rif@0 {
compatible = "renesas,r8a7795-drif",
"renesas,rcar-gen3-drif";
sub-channels = <&drif00>, <&drif01>;
status = "disabled";
};
-------
board dts file would have something like this
&drif00 {
status = "okay";
};
&drif01 {
status = "okay";
};
&drif0 {
pinctrl-0 = <&drif0_pins>;
pinctrl-names = "default";
status = "okay";
port {
drif0_ep: endpoint {
remote-endpoint = <&max2175_0_ep>;
};
};
};
-------
The drif0X driver instance will help only in registering with genpd.
The parent drif0 instance will parse "sub-channels" phandles and use the resources of respective enabled sub-channels using it's pdev.
Thanks,
Ramesh
