[PATCH v3] RFC: dt-bindings: Create DT bindings for SATA controllers

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

 



I need to create subnodes for drives connected to SATA
host controllers, and this needs to be supported
generally, so create a common YAML binding for
"sata" 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:
- Split off into its own RFC patch
- Only support sata-port@ in this binding
- Opt to support devices 0..14 on the sata-port in
  line with ahci-platforn.txt not modeling the port
  multiplier in the device tree at all.
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.

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

+      reg:
+        minimum: 0
+        maximum: 14
+        description:
+          The ID number of the drive port SATA can potentially use a port
+          multiplier making it possible to connect up to 15 disks to a single
+          SATA port.
