There are here few issues.
First, I don't fully understand the property. What is an LLCC
configuration? Like some fused values?

There are different configuration for LLCC based on the number of
DDR channel it uses. Here, we are basically trying to get information
about the same.


Second, don't make it a register specific, it will not scale easily to
any new version of this interface. Although how this should look like
depends on what is it.

LLCC driver can only get DDR channel information from the register.

Actually, any one can read this property there is no boundation to that.
However, some of the bits information of this register only matters to LLCC to make decision.

And why would that exactly matter to DT? How does it solve my concern
that your approach does not scale?

I understand your concern about not making it register specific, however this register is a secure fuse register where the interested bits are known to us and should only be used by llcc to select right slice configuration table to apply.

How about something like this,

Add another property like qcom,tcsr_feature_config under qcom,scm
and read this property under qcom_scm driver and expose
read exported symbol for LLCC driver. LLCC driver can use API and
apply bit offset/bit size to get right value inside the target driver data(e.g .data = &XXXX_cfg }) or maintain it inside same tcsr_feature_config DT (this can be discussed)
Also, we can have a yaml file for tcsr_feature_config.

e.g..


scm: scm {
        compatible = "qcom,scm-sm8450", "qcom,scm";
        qcom,dload-mode = <&tcsr 0x13000>;
        ...
	qcom,tcsr_feature_config = <&tcsr_feature_config>
};

tcsr_feature_config: syscon@fd484000 {
	compatible = "qcom, XXXX", qcom,tcsr-featureconfig";
	reg = <0xXXXXXXXX 0xYYYY>;
};
