+ that controls the PCIe PHY
+- #interrupt-cells: set to<1>

How many, and what are they?
Different iProc SoCs might have different number of interrupts. I'll
elaborate more on the next patch.
Ok.
+- interrupt-map-mask and interrupt-map, standard PCI properties to define the

+- bus-range: PCI bus numbers covered
+- #address-cells: set to<3>
+- #size-cells: set to<2>
+- device_type: set to "pci"
+- ranges: ranges for the PCI memory and I/O regions
+- phy-addr: MDC/MDIO adddress of the PCIe PHY
It looks like the phy controller is separate from the PCI controller,
and you even list the same register range for both PHYs. Better make
that a separate driver and put the phy address into the "phys" reference.
Okay. In this case, I need to create a separate PHY driver under the
drivers/phy directory and have the PCIe host driver reference it through
the standard PHY API.
Yes, that is what I meant. In particular, that has the advantage of letting
you reuse the two drivers separately if some new SoC comes up that uses
one but not the other. A lot of PHY implementations can support multiple
protocols (e.g. pcie and usb3), but I don't know if yours does.
+- have-msi-inten-reg: Required for legacy iProc PCIe controllers that need the

+The Broadcom iProc PCie driver adapts the multi-domain structure, i.e., each
+interface has its own domain and therefore has its own device node
+Example:

+SoC specific DT Entry:

+ pcie0: pcie@18012000 {
+ compatible = "brcm,iproc-pcie";
+ reg =<0x18012000 0x1000>,
+<0x18002000 0x1000>;
I guess the addresses should be relative to the BCMA bus, and this node
get moved under that. Please see Hauke's patch series, we've discussed
this in great length already.
As Arend van Spriel pointed out in the previous discussion:
BCMA core is the bus driver for discoverable ARM AXI interconnect. Apart
from that it also provides drivers for some cores. For the chips to be
discoverable it needs additional IP logic.
Not all iProc family of SoCs have the additional IP logic and for those
which don't, they cannot use the BCMA bus.
Ok, but the one from your example almost certainly does because the
addresses are exactly the same ones as on bcm53xx.
The same problem likely occurs on other peripherals, not just PCI,
so we will have to come up with a way to have a common driver for
bcma_bus and platform_bus for USB, SPI, brcmsmac, and likely others
too.
Makes sense. I think that is what Hauke meant by "adding
additional support for registering to bcma". So the discovery info is a
piece of read-only memory in the chip. Its address is stored in the
chipcommon core register space. BCMA parses that memory blob resulting
in a list of cores which register address info. We could add DT support
in BCMA matching the compatible string and register a core for it.
However, apart from the discovery info a "discoverable ARM AXI" chip has
a register space per core that provides common procedures like
enable/disable, reset, core status, which are implemented in BCMA. I am
not seeing that register space in the DT examples so I guess this IP
block is not there for iProc chips.

This interrupt is also listed in the "interrupts" above, which is
probably a mistake, unless the IRQ line is shared between all PCI
devices and the PCI host itself.
interrupts are for MSI interrupt support and interrupt-map is for legacy
INTx support. To my best knowledge, MSI and INTx cannot be used at the
same time. "nvidia,tegra20-pcie.txt" and "rcar-pci.txt" have similar
configurations.
Linux drivers will absolutely use MSI and legacy interrupts together, because
some drivers don't support MSI and others enable it unconditionally.
In both your examples (tegra and rcar), the interrupts that share the same
number are auxiliary and are correctly used with IRQF_SHARED, so that works.
If a device MSI just maps to a host IRQ however, you wouldn't be able to
use IRQF_SHARED.
