DBCH enables a single bit Transfer to be sent from the 50 Sender to Receiver. The Transfer indicates that an event has occurred. 51 When DBE is implemented, the number of DBCHs that an implementation of the 52 MHU can support is between 1 and 128, numbered starting from 0 in ascending 53 order and discoverable at run-time. 54 Each DBCH contains 32 individual fields, referred to as flags, each of which 55 can be used independently. It is possible for the Sender to send multiple 56 Transfers at once using a single DBCH, so long as each Transfer uses 57 a different flag in the DBCH. 58 Optionally, data may be transmitted through an out-of-band shared memory 59 region, wherein the MHU Doorbell is used strictly as an interrupt generation 60 mechanism, but this is out of the scope of these bindings. 61 62 - FastChannel Extension (FCE): FCE defines a type of channel called a Fast 63 Channel (FCH). FCH is intended for lower overhead communication between 64 Sender and Receiver at the expense of determinism. An FCH allows the Sender 65 to update the channel value at any time, regardless of whether the previous 66 value has been seen by the Receiver. When the Receiver reads the channel's 67 content it gets the last value written to the channel. 68 FCH is considered lossy in nature, and means that the Sender has no way of 69 knowing if, or when, the Receiver will act on the Transfer. 70 FCHs are expected to behave as RAM which generates interrupts when writes 71 occur to the locations within the RAM. 72 When FCE is implemented, the number of FCHs that an implementation of the 73 MHU can support is between 1-1024, if the FastChannel word-size is 32-bits, 74 or between 1-512, when the FastChannel word-size is 64-bits. 75 FCHs are numbered from 0 in ascending order. 76 Note that the number of FCHs and the word-size are implementation defined, 77 not configurable but discoverable at run-time. 78 Optionally, data may be transmitted through an out-of-band shared memory 79 region, wherein the MHU FastChannel is used as an interrupt generation 80 mechanism which carries also a pointer to such out-of-band data, but this 81 is out of the scope of these bindings. 82 83 - FIFO Extension (FE): FE defines a Channel type called a FIFO Channel (FFCH). 84 FFCH allows a Sender to send 85 - Multiple Transfers to the Receiver without having to wait for the > 86 previous Transfer to be acknowledged by the Receiver, as long as the 87 FIFO has room for the Transfer. 88 - Transfers which require the Receiver to provide acknowledgment. 89 - Transfers which have in-band payload. 90 In all cases, the data is guaranteed to be observed by the Receiver in the 91 same order which the Sender sent it. 92 When FE is implemented, the number of FFCHs that an implementation of the 93 MHU can support is between 1 and 64, numbered starting from 0 in ascending 94 order. The number of FFCHs, their depth (same for all implemented FFCHs) and 95 the access-granularity are implementation defined, not configurable but 96 discoverable at run-time. 97 Optionally, additional data may be transmitted through an out-of-band shared 98 memory region, wherein the MHU FIFO is used to transmit, in order, a small 99 part of the payload (like a header) and a reference to the shared memory 100 area holding the remaining, bigger, chunk of the payload, but this is out of 101 the scope of these bindings. 102 103 properties: 104 compatible: 105 const: arm,mhuv3 106 107 reg: 108 maxItems: 1 109 110 interrupts: 111 minItems: 1 112 maxItems: 74 113 114 interrupt-names: 115 description: | 116 The MHUv3 controller generates a number of events some of which are used 117 to generate interrupts; as a consequence it can expose a varying number of 118 optional PBX/MBX interrupts, representing the events generated during the 119 operation of the various transport protocols associated with different 120 extensions.
