I have similar concern/question as for the DMA side, let me copy that here as well: These regions were 'hidden' from Linux or other open coded access for a reason. If I recall the main reason is security and the need to make sure that the allocation of the channels not been violated. IMho the boot loader should be no exception and it should be using the DM firmware to configure the DMAs. Or has the security concern been dropped and SW can do whatever it wants? > > Vignesh Raghavendra (2): > dt-bindings: soc: ti: k3-ringacc: Describe cfg reg region > arm64: dts: ti: k3: Add cfg reg region to ringacc node > > Documentation/devicetree/bindings/soc/ti/k3-ringacc.yaml | 9 +++++++-- > arch/arm64/boot/dts/ti/k3-am65-main.dtsi | 5 +++-- > arch/arm64/boot/dts/ti/k3-am65-mcu.dtsi | 6 ++++-- > arch/arm64/boot/dts/ti/k3-j7200-main.dtsi | 5 +++-- > arch/arm64/boot/dts/ti/k3-j7200-mcu-wakeup.dtsi | 6 ++++-- > arch/arm64/boot/dts/ti/k3-j721e-main.dtsi | 5 +++-- > arch/arm64/boot/dts/ti/k3-j721e-mcu-wakeup.dtsi | 5 +++-- > arch/arm64/boot/dts/ti/k3-j721s2-main.dtsi | 5 +++-- > arch/arm64/boot/dts/ti/k3-j721s2-mcu-wakeup.dtsi | 5 +++-- > arch/arm64/boot/dts/ti/k3-j784s4-main.dtsi | 5 +++-- > arch/arm64/boot/dts/ti/k3-j784s4-mcu-wakeup.dtsi | 5 +++-- > 11 files changed, 39 insertions(+), 22 deletions(-) > -- Péter
