The +primary use case of the Aspeed LPC controller is as a slave on the bus +(typically in a Baseboard Management Controller SoC), but under certain +conditions it can also take the role of bus master. + +The LPC controller is represented as a multi-function device to account for the +mix of functionality it provides. The principle split is between the register +layout at the start of the I/O space which is, to quote the Aspeed datasheet, +"basically compatible with the [LPC registers from the] popular BMC controller +H8S/2168[1]", and everything else, where everything else is an eclectic +collection of functions with a esoteric register layout. "Everything else", +here labeled the "host" portion of the controller, includes, but is not limited +to: + +* An IPMI Block Transfer[2] Controller + +* An LPC Host Controller: Manages LPC functions such as host vs slave mode, the + physical properties of some LPC pins, configuration of serial IRQs, and + APB-to-LPC bridging amonst other functions. + +* An LPC Host Interface Controller: Manages functions exposed to the host such + as LPC firmware hub cycles, configuration of the LPC-to-AHB mapping, UART + management and bus snoop configuration. + +* A set of SuperIO[3] scratch registers: Enables implementation of e.g. custom + hardware management protocols for handover between the host and baseboard + management controller. + +Additionally the state of the LPC controller influences the pinmux +configuration, therefore the host portion of the controller is exposed as a +syscon as a means to arbitrate access. + +[0] http://www.intel.com/design/chipsets/industry/25128901.pdf +[1] https://www.renesas.com/en-sg/doc/products/mpumcu/001/rej09b0078_h8s2168.pdf?key=7c88837454702128622bee53acbda8f4 +[2] http://www.intel.com/content/dam/www/public/us/en/documents/product-briefs/ipmi-second-gen-interface-spec-v2-rev1-1.pdf +[3] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Super_I/O + +Required properties +=================== + +- compatible: One of: + "aspeed,ast2400-lpc", "simple-mfd" + "aspeed,ast2500-lpc", "simple-mfd" + +- reg: contains the physical address and length values of the Aspeed + LPC memory region. + +- #address-cells: <1> +- #size-cells: <1> +- ranges: Maps 0 to the physical address and length of the LPC memory + region + +Required LPC Child nodes +======================== + +BMC Node +-------- + +- compatible: One of: + "aspeed,ast2400-lpc-bmc" + "aspeed,ast2500-lpc-bmc" + +- reg: contains the physical address and length values of the + H8S/2168-compatible LPC controller memory region + +Host Node +--------- + +- compatible: One of: + "aspeed,ast2400-lpc-host", "simple-mfd", "syscon" + "aspeed,ast2500-lpc-host", "simple-mfd", "syscon" + +- reg: contains the address and length values of the host-related + register space for the Aspeed LPC controller + +- #address-cells: <1> +- #size-cells: <1> +- ranges: Maps 0 to the address and length of the host-related LPC memory + region + +Example: + +lpc: lpc@1e789000 { + compatible = "aspeed,ast2500-lpc", "simple-mfd"; + reg = <0x1e789000 0x1000>; + + #address-cells = <1>; + #size-cells = <1>; + ranges = <0x0 0x1e789000 0x1000>; + + lpc_bmc: lpc-bmc@0 { + compatible = "aspeed,ast2500-lpc-bmc"; + reg = <0x0 0x80>; + }; + + lpc_host: lpc-host@80 { + compatible = "aspeed,ast2500-lpc-host", "simple-mfd", "syscon"; + reg = <0x80 0x1e0>; + reg-io-width = <4>; + + #address-cells = <1>; + #size-cells = <1>; + ranges = <0x0 0x80 0x1e0>; + }; +}; + -- 2.9.3 -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe devicetree" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
