+* NVIDIA Tegra AHB DMA controller
+
+Required properties:
+- compatible: Must be "nvidia,tegra20-ahbdma"
+- reg: Should contain registers base address and length.
+- interrupts: Should contain one entry, DMA controller interrupt.
+- clocks: Should contain one entry, DMA controller clock.
+- resets : Should contain one entry, DMA controller reset.
+- #dma-cells: Should be <1>. The cell represents DMA request select value
+ for the peripheral. For more details consult the Tegra TRM's
+ documentation, in particular AHB DMA channel control register
+ REQ_SEL field.
What about the TRIG_SEL field? Do we need to handle this here as well?
Actually, DMA transfer trigger isn't related a hardware description. It's up to
software to decide what trigger to select. So it shouldn't be in the binding.
I think it could be, if say a board wanted a GPIO to trigger a transfer.
And I think the same applies to requester... any objections?
Well, the REQ_SEL should definitely be in the binding.
Laxman, Stephen, what are your thoughts on the TRIG_SEL field? Looks
like we never bothered with it for the APB DMA and so maybe no ones uses
this.
I don't think TRIG_SEL should be in the binding, at least at present.
While TRIG_SEL certainly is something used to configure the transfer, I
believe the semantics of the current DMA binding only cover DMA
transfers that are initiated when SW desires, rather than being a
combination of after SW programs the transfer plus some other HW event.
So, we always use a default/hard-coded TRIG_SEL value. As such, there's
no need for a TRIG_SEL value in DT. There's certainly no known use-case
that requires a non-default TRIG_SEL value at present. We could add an
extra #dma-cells value later if we find a use for it, and the semantics
of that use-case make sense to add it to the DMA specifier, rather than
some other separate higher-level property/driver/...
