If not, I don't see how it would work. There is only one SPI engine driving the SPI controller, so if two offloads are triggered at the same time, they will be executed serially. > > I think this whole thing could be simplified down to just 3 > SPI controller properties: pwms, dmas, and adi,offload-cs-map.

Offloads could be connected to virtually anything, not just pwms and dmas, so making pwms and dmas controller properties doesn't seem right to me. What if we have one that uses a gpio trigger or clock trigger? Or what if we have one where the output goes to a DSP instead of DMA? This is why I made offload@ nodes with a compatible property - to describe what is actually connected to each offload instance since it could be an unlimited range of different things. > > > > > Signed-off-by: David Lechner <dlechner@xxxxxxxxxxxx> > > --- > > .../spi/adi,axi-spi-engine-peripheral-props.yaml | 24 +++++++++++ > > .../bindings/spi/adi,axi-spi-engine.yaml | 49 +++++++++++++++++++++- > > .../bindings/spi/spi-peripheral-props.yaml | 1 + > > 3 files changed, 73 insertions(+), 1 deletion(-) > > > > diff --git a/Documentation/devicetree/bindings/spi/adi,axi-spi-engine-peripheral-props.yaml b/Documentation/devicetree/bindings/spi/adi,axi-spi-engine-peripheral-props.yaml > > new file mode 100644 > > index 000000000000..19b685fc3b39 > > --- /dev/null > > +++ b/Documentation/devicetree/bindings/spi/adi,axi-spi-engine-peripheral-props.yaml > > @@ -0,0 +1,24 @@ > > +# SPDX-License-Identifier: (GPL-2.0 OR BSD-2-Clause) > > +%YAML 1.2 > > +--- > > +$id: http://devicetree.org/schemas/spi/adi,axi-spi-engine-peripheral-props.yaml# > > +$schema: http://devicetree.org/meta-schemas/core.yaml# > > + > > +title: Peripheral properties for Analog Devices AXI SPI Engine Controller > > + > > +maintainers: > > + - Michael Hennerich <Michael.Hennerich@xxxxxxxxxx> > > + - Nuno Sá <nuno.sa@xxxxxxxxxx> > > + > > +properties: > > + adi,offloads: > > + description: > > + List of AXI SPI Engine offload instances assigned to this peripheral. > > + $ref: /schemas/types.yaml#/definitions/uint32-array > > + maxItems: 32 > > + items: > > + items: > > + - minimum: 0 > > + maximum: 31 > > This defines a matrix.
