Is there a reason this doesn't fit there? eSPI resues the timing and electrical specification of SPI but runs completely different protocol. Only the flash channel is related to SPI and the other 3 channels are for EC/BMC/SIO. Therefore, an eSPI driver does not fit into the SPI model. > > > 1 file changed, 162 insertions(+) > > create mode 100644 > > Documentation/devicetree/bindings/soc/aspeed/espi.yaml > > > > diff --git a/Documentation/devicetree/bindings/soc/aspeed/espi.yaml > > b/Documentation/devicetree/bindings/soc/aspeed/espi.yaml > > new file mode 100644 > > index 000000000000..aa91ec8caf6a > > --- /dev/null > > +++ b/Documentation/devicetree/bindings/soc/aspeed/espi.yaml > > @@ -0,0 +1,162 @@ > > +# SPDX-License-Identifier: (GPL-2.0-only OR BSD-2-Clause) # # > > +Copyright (c) 2021 Aspeed Technology Inc. > > +%YAML 1.2 > > +--- > > +$id: "http://devicetree.org/schemas/soc/aspeed/espi.yaml#" > > +$schema: "http://devicetree.org/meta-schemas/core.yaml#" > > + > > +title: Aspeed eSPI Controller > > + > > +maintainers: > > + - Chia-Wei Wang <chiawei_wang@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> > > + - Ryan Chen <ryan_chen@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> > > + > > +description: > > + Aspeed eSPI controller implements a slave side eSPI endpoint device > > + supporting the four eSPI channels, namely peripheral, virtual wire, > > + out-of-band, and flash. > > + > > +properties: > > + compatible: > > + items: > > + - enum: > > + - aspeed,ast2500-espi > > + - aspeed,ast2600-espi > > + - const: simple-mfd > > + - const: syscon > > + > > + reg: > > + maxItems: 1 > > + > > + "#address-cells": > > + const: 1 > > + > > + "#size-cells": > > + const: 1 > > + > > + ranges: true > > + > > +patternProperties: > > + "^espi-ctrl@[0-9a-f]+$": > > + type: object > > + > > + description: Control of the four basic eSPI channels > > + > > + properties: > > + compatible: > > + items: > > + - enum: > > + - aspeed,ast2500-espi-ctrl > > + - aspeed,ast2600-espi-ctrl > > + > > + interrupts: > > + maxItems: 1 > > + > > + clocks: > > + maxItems: 1 > > + > > + perif,memcyc-enable: > > What vendor is 'perif'?

It's configuration. The property is used to decide the operation mode (i.e. FIFO or DMA) of the eSPI flash channel.

However, espi-mmbi is also a feature extended based on the memory cycle of eSPI peripheral channel. Thereby, it has dependency on the eSPI channel initialization conducted by espi-ctrl. The scenario is similar to the lpc-ctrl and other lpc-xxx drivers of Aspeed SoCs. Chiawei
