Now that I've looked at this binding in more detail, I think this phy-related text is wrong.
First off, I don't think the phys are optional at all. Whenever a phy is used, we must include it in the phys/phy-names list. I guess what we need is a more precise definition of which entries are required, and then to make these properties mandatory.
I think the naming of the phys above may be wrong too. The text above sounds like it's using the names of the actual phys, rather than of the ports that are using them. Since there's a big mux between the ports and the phys, I suspect it would make more sense to identify the ports in phy-names, and have the values in phys reflect the configuration of the mux. That way no matter how the mux is configured, the names used in phy-names always map 1:1 to the XUSB controller ports. Does that make sense? For some of the ports, this makes no difference since all the mux does is allow XUSB vs. some other module access to the PHY. But I think for at least the USB3 ports, each port could be mux'd to various different PHYs/lanes, so this distinction does have an effect.
Question: Should the XUSB controller driver determine which of its ports to enable/use based solely on which phy-names are present, or should we have some explicit property to define which ports are in use? Downstream does have a property for this purpose.
Question: Each physical USB connector contains signals from both a USB2 port and a USB3 port. The HW can be configured to associate different USB2 and USB3 controllers with each-other for this purpose. The configuration for this happens via a register in the XUSB padctl module in register SS_PORT_MAP. However, the XUSB padctl binding doesn't allow specification of that mapping yet, and the driver doesn't program that register. I'm not sure if we should have a similar mapping property in the XUSB controller's DT node, a custom API between the two drivers to retrieve that information, or perhaps the XUSB controller driver doesn't actually care, since HW implements all required interactions. Does anyone know? Downstream also has a property that describes this mapping.
(Although note that the downstream properties for those two purposes, or at least the code that handles them, seems like a mess to me so far).
Either way, I think we need to update the XUSB padctl binding to contain this information before we consider the XUSB controller binding to be fully fleshed out, so we can make sure the two bindings interact well.
+Example:
+ phys = <&padctl TEGRA_XUSB_PADCTL_UTMI_P1>, /* mini-PCIe USB */ + <&padctl TEGRA_XUSB_PADCTL_UTMI_P2>, /* USB A */ + <&padctl TEGRA_XUSB_PADCTL_USB3_P0>; /* USB A */ + phy-names = "utmi-1", "utmi-2", "usb3-0";
We're also missing an update to the XUSB padctl binding to define all those TEGRA_XUSB_PADCTL_UTMI_P* values. I think we need to complete that in order to make sure that both bindings are fully thought out.
Thierry, I found your WIP patches perhaps related to this at:
https://github.com/thierryreding/linux/commits/staging/xhci
However, those top two patches there don't contain any DT binding or .dts file updates so it's difficult to tell where the changes are going. Do you have binding/.dts patches elsewhere to show the intended result?
I notice that series may also have support for configuring the per-board tuning parameters too. That'd be useful to get in place too. Do you have a source for the actual tuning values for any of the T210 boards that mainline U-Boot now supports?
