Amloic Meson-6 SoC only has one IR Controller, since then, there are 2 IR
Controllers in every SoCs, one is Legacy IR Controller (same as Meson-6's one),
the new one is Multi-Format IR Controller (abbreviated "MF-IR",
which supports more than one IR Protocol). MF-IR was updated several times,
so different SoCs could be got different register sizes.

There are all IR Controller register areas from upstream's SoCs:
                    Legacy IR          MF-IR
Meson-6               | <0xc8100480 0x20> |     NULL     |
Meson-8/8B/8M2           | <0xc8100480 0x20> | <0xc8100580 0x30> |
Meson-GXBB             | <0xc8100480 0x20> | <0xc8100580 0x44> |
Meson-GXM/GXL            | <0xc8100480 0x20> | <0xc8100580 0x54> |
Meson-AXG/G12A/G12B/SM1           | <0xff808000 0x20> | <0xff808040 0x58> |

About Meson-IR driver, MF-IR was supported from Meson-8, which was distinguished by compatible string (of_device_is_compatible(node, "amlogic,meson6-ir")), and only one register (macro 'IR_DEC_REG2') was added because controller worked in raw decoder mode, later registers are unused, so we recommend that register
size should be 0x24 if MF-IR is in use.

There are 2 ways to fix.

MF-IR is in use:
   Meson-8/8B/8M2/GXBB/GXM/GXL: <0xc8100580 0x24>
   Meson-AXG/G12A/G12B/SM1:     <0xff808040 0x24>

Legacy IR is in use:
   Meson-8/8B/8M2/GXBB/GXM/GXL: <0xc8100480 0x20>
   Meson-AXG/G12A/G12B/SM1:     <0xff808000 0x20>

This is slighly confusing, so you mean since Meson-8 there's 2 IR controllers which have the same register mapping, and both works with the "amlogic,meson6-ir" compatible ?

They are not the same register mapping but similar.
Compatible "amlogic,meson6-ir" only works with legacy IR, other compatibles work with MF-IR. Please refer to https://lore.kernel.org/all/20160820095424.636-5-martin.blumenstingl@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx/


So why should we switch to the MF-IR address ? what does it exactly change ?

In raw decoder mode, it's not necessarily to switch to MF-IR, you could use "amlogic,meson6-ir" with legacy IR register area. This patch is for fix the wrong relation between compatible and register area. If compatible is "amlogic,meson-gxbb-ir", the register should be from MF-IR.


If we want to be clean:
- both should be added, legacy IR with current address + reg size change
- a new compatible should be added for the MF IR, with "amlogic,meson6-ir" as fallback to take in account they are compatible
- a new node should be added for the MR IR
- DTs should be switch to the MF IR label instead of the legacy IR

With this we would be able to take advantage of the MR IF functionalities while keeping driver functionnal
with old DTs and new DTs with old kernels.

Legacy IR and MF-IR share the same IRQ number, so I recommend that chose one to use. Do they both need to be added? In a word, this patch is not for new function, just fix the wrong register addr.

Thanks,
Neil
