[PATCH 1/2 v3] dt-bindings: Create DT bindings for PATA controllers

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



I need to create subnodes for drives connected to PATA
host controllers, and this needs to be supported generally,
so create a common YAML binding for "ide" that will support
subnodes with ports.

This has been designed as a subset of
ata/ahci-platform.txt with the bare essentials and
should be possible to extend or superset to cover the
common bindings.

ChangeLog v2->v3:
- Only support PATA controllers for now since it is all I
  need right now. SATA controller have complex topology and
  might need more elaborate subnodes, possibly a subnode for
  the multiplier itself, so I will split that off into its
  own RFC patch.
ChangeLog v1->v2:
- Use ide@ and sata@ as node names.
- Use ide-port@ and sata-port@ for the ports toward the
  drives, rather than letting the subnodes be the drives
  themselves.

+title: Common Properties for Parallel AT attachment (PATA) controllers

+description: |
+  This document defines device tree properties common to most Parallel
+  ATA (PATA, also known as IDE) AT attachment storage devices.
+  It doesn't constitue a device tree binding specification by itself but is
+  meant to be referenced by device tree bindings.
+
+  The PATA (IDE) controller-specific device tree bindings are responsible for
+  defining whether each property is required or optional.
+
+properties:
+  $nodename:
+    pattern: "^ide(@.*)?$"
+    description:
+      Specifies the host controller node. PATA host controller nodes are named
+      "ide".
+
+  "#address-cells":
+    const: 1
+
+  "#size-cells":
+    const: 0
+
+patternProperties:
+  "^ide-port@[0-1]$":
+    description: |
+      DT nodes for ports connected on the PATA host. The master drive will have
+      ID number 0 and the slave drive will have ID number 1. The PATA port
+      nodes will be named "ide-port".
+    type: object

+    properties:

+        maximum: 1

+          The ID number of the drive port, 0 for the master port and 1 for the
