+== Introduction==
+
+LLCC (Last Level Cache Controller) provides last level of cache memory in SOC,
+that can be shared by multiple clients. Clients here are different cores in the
+SOC, the idea is to minimize the local caches at the clients and migrate to
+common pool of memory. Cache memory is divided into partitions called slices
+which are assigned to clients. Clients can query the slice details, activate
+and deactivate them.
+
+Properties:
+- compatible:
+	Usage: required
+	Value type: <string>
+	Definition: must be "qcom,sdm845-llcc"
+
+- reg:
+	Usage: required
+	Value Type: <prop-encoded-array>
+	Definition: Start address and the range of the LLCC registers.
+
+- #cache-cells:
+	Usage: required
+	Value Type: <u32>
+	Definition: Number of cache cells, must be 1
+
+- max-slices:
+	usage: required
+	Value Type: <u32>
+	Definition: Number of cache slices supported by hardware
+
+Example:
+
+	llcc: qcom,llcc@1100000 {
+		compatible = "qcom,sdm845-llcc";
+		reg = <0x1100000 0x250000>;
+		#cache-cells = <1>;
+		max-slices = <32>;
+	};
+
+== Client ==
+
+Properties:
+- cache-slice-names:
+Usage: required
+	Value type: <stringlist>
+	Definition: A set of names that identify the usecase names of a
+		client that uses cache slice. These strings are
+		used to look up the cache slice entries by name.
+
+- cache-slices:
+	Usage: required
+	Value type: <prop-encoded-array>
+	Definition: The tuple has phandle to llcc device as the first
+			argument and the second argument is the usecase
+			id of the client.
+For Example:
+	venus {
+		cache-slice-names = "vidsc0", "vidsc1";
+		cache-slices = <&llcc VIDSC0_ID>, <&llcc VIDSC1_ID>;
+	};
