Hi, This series adds support for the new ARM Message Handling Unit v3 mailbox controller [1]. The ARM MHUv3 can optionally support various extensions, enabling the usage of different transport protocols. Patch [2/2] adds a platform driver which, as of now, provides support only for the Doorbell extension using the combined interrupt. On the other side, bindings in [1/2] are introduced for all the extensions described by the specification, as long as they are of interest to an entity running from Normal world, like Linux: as such, Doorbell, FIFO and FastChannel extensions are documented. In these regards, note that the ARM MHUv3 controller can optionally implement a considerable number of interrupts to express a great deal of events and many of such interrupts are defined as being per-channel: with the total maximum amount of possibly implemented channels across all extensions being 1216 (1024+128+64), it would mean *a lot* of interrupt-names to enumerate in the bindings. So, since, I could not find a proper yaml/DT way to just define and verify interrupt-names as: my_interrupt-<N> with <N> in [0, N] range the binding as of now only introduces interrupt-names for a mere 4-channels in the range (0,3) for each per-channel interrupt type: the idea is to leave open the possibility to add more to this list of numbered items only when (and if) new real HW appears that effectively needs more than four channels. (like AMBA, where the maximum number of IRQ was progressively increased when needed, AFAIU); any suggestion on how to better express this, is very much welcome. Based on v6.9-rc1, tested on ARM TCS23 [2] (TCS23 reference SW stack is still to be made fully publicly available) Thanks, Cristian [1]: https://developer.arm.com/documentation/aes0072/aa/?lang=en [2]: https://community.arm.com/arm-community-blogs/b/tools-software-ides-blog/posts/total-compute-solutions-platform-software-stack-and-fvp Cristian Marussi (2): dt-bindings: mailbox: arm,mhuv3: Add bindings mailbox: arm_mhuv3: Add driver .../bindings/mailbox/arm,mhuv3.yaml | 239 ++++ MAINTAINERS | 9 + drivers/mailbox/Kconfig | 11 + drivers/mailbox/Makefile | 2 + drivers/mailbox/arm_mhuv3.c | 1061 +++++++++++++++++ 5 files changed, 1322 insertions(+) create mode 100644 Documentation/devicetree/bindings/mailbox/arm,mhuv3.yaml create mode 100644 drivers/mailbox/arm_mhuv3.c -- 2.34.1
