Keep rather alphabetical order (so both 5018 together).
I also do not understand these at all. Why adding bus type to
compatible? This rarely is allowed (unless it is PCIe controller within
soc).
IPQ5018 SOC has in-built PCIE controller. Here QDSP6 will bring up
external(PCIE) and internal (AHB) wifi radio's. To separate AHB, PCIE
radio's properties, i have added bus type to compatible.
It's the same device - WCSS - right? We do not create multiple nodes and
compatibles for the same devices. Bus suffixes are almost never parts of
compatibles.
No it's not the same device. WCSS on inside IPQ5018 and WCSS attached
via pcie to IPQ5018. Here QDSP6 managing both WCSS's.
So for better clarity i will use attached SOC ID in compatible.
Below are the new compatible's.
- qcom,ipq5018-wcss-mpd //IPQ5018 internal radio
- qcom,ipq9574-wcss-mpd //IPQ9574 internal radio
- qcom,qcn6122-wcss-mpd //IPQ5018 attached radio
What mandates that there's just one QCN6122 device attached to PCI?
Assuming fixed PCI configurations like that makes me worried.
IPQ5018 always has one internal radio, attached pcie radio's depends on
no of pcie ports. IPQ5018 has 2 pcie ports, so it supports max two
qcn6122 devices. One compatible (qcom,qcn6122-wcss-mpd) itself support's
number of pcie devices controlled by QDSP6.
So this is hot-pluggable (or at least board-pluggable), then should not
be a part of static DTS.
Some concepts of virtual-processes is anyway far away from hardware
description, thus does not fit into DTS. Adding now to the equation PCIe
with variable number of such processes, brings us even further.
This is not a DT property. Remember - DT describes hardware.

In the multipd architecture based Socs, There is one Q6 DSP which runs
the OS/kernel and there are one or more instances of WCSS radios
(It can be either internal or pcie attached).
These WCSS cores are controlled by the Q6 (Q6 DSP brings wcss radios out
of reset/ shuts it down etc). Q6 forms the 'root Protection domain' and
the wcss radios are termed as the 'user protection domain'.
The compatible's that is being added here are to manage the 'root
domain' and 'user domain'.
Not sure if using the words 'pcie'/'ahb' made it confusing.
So, 'qcom,ipq5018-q6-mpd' and 'qcom,ipq5018-wcss-mpd'.
There will be multiple instances of 'qcom,ipq5018-wcss-mpd' in DT based
on number of wcss radios connected on that board and only one instance
of 'qcom,ipq5018-q6-mpd'.
Is this approach ok ?
Thanks & Regards,
