[PATCH v4 1/8] dt-bindings: connector: add GE SUNH hotplug addon connector

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Add bindings for the GE SUNH add-on connector. This is a physical,
hot-pluggable connector that allows to attach and detach at runtime an
add-on adding peripherals on non-discoverable busses.

Signed-off-by: Luca Ceresoli <luca.ceresoli@xxxxxxxxxxx>

Changed in v4:
 - rename 'nobus-devices' to 'devices'
 - use 'additionalProperties: true' for the 'devices' node (nodes are added
   by overlays)
 - document GPIO polarity
 - add '|' for descriptions to preserve line breaks
 - remove powergood-gpios (removed in hardware design)
 - Omit "/" node, not needed and cause of warnings
 - remove reference to v2 examples from example comment
 - remove unneeded "addon_connector" label from example

Changed in v3:
 - change the layout to only add subnodes, not properties
 - add the 'nobus-devices' node description to hold devices not on any bus
 - add 'i2c-*' nodes for the I2C busses, using a i2c-parent phandle
 - and the 'dsi' node for the DSI bus
 - move the entire port@1 node to the overlay (not only the remote-endpoint
   property)
 - remove the overlay examples (Overlays in examples are not supported)
 - add more clarifying descriptions and comments for examples
 - some rewording

This patch was added in v2.

+description: |
+  Represent the physical connector present on GE SUNH devices that allows
+  to attach and detach at runtime an add-on adding peripherals on
+  non-discoverable busses. Peripherals on the add-on include I2C sensors
+  and a video bridge controlled via I2C.
+
+  The connector has status GPIOs to notify the connection status to the CPU
+  and a reset GPIO to allow the CPU to reset all the peripherals on the
+  add-on. It also has I2C busses and a 4-lane MIPI DSI bus.
+
+  Different add-on models can be connected, each having different
+  peripherals. For this reason each add-on has a model ID stored in a
+  non-volatile memory, which is accessed in the same way on all add-ons.
+
+  Add-on removal can happen at any moment under user control and without
+  prior notice to the CPU, making all of its components not usable
+  anymore. Later on, the same or a different add-on model can be connected.

+      are children of the root node.
+
+      This node should not be present in the connector description in the
+      base device tree. It should be added by overlays along with a subnode
+      per device.

+          OF graph bindings modeling the MIPI DSI bus across the connector. The
+          connector splits the video pipeline in a fixed part and a removable
+          part.
+
+          The fixed part of the video pipeline includes all components up to
+          the display controller and 0 or more bridges. The removable part
+          includes any bridges and any other components up to the panel.

+              video pipeline component on the add-on. As it describes the
+              hot-pluggable hardware, the endpoint node cannot be filled
+              until an add-on is detected, so this node needs to be added
+              by a device tree overlay at runtime.
