  v4: New patch in this series. Corresponds to V2 patches 3-4-5 with
      added content.

v5: - Edited PWM/watchdog DT bindings documentation to point to the new
        document.
      - Moved main document to
        Documentation/devicetree/bindings/timer/ingenic,tcu.txt
      - Updated documentation to reflect the new devicetree bindings.

 -  * "ingenic,jz4780-pwm"
-- #pwm-cells: Should be 3. See pwm.txt in this directory for a description
 -  of the cells format.
 -- clocks : phandle to the external clock.
 -- clock-names : Should be "ext".

+This documentation has moved; for a description of the devicetree bindings of
 +this driver, please refer to ../timer/ingenic,tcu.txt.

This should be evident from the git log. Just remove it.

Ok.

 +Ingenic JZ47xx SoCs Timer/Counter Unit devicetree bindings
 +==========================================================
 +
 +For a description of the TCU hardware and drivers, have a look at
 +Documentation/mips/ingenic-tcu.txt.
 +
 +Required properties:
 +
 +- compatible: Must be one of:
 +  * ingenic,jz4740-tcu
 +  * ingenic,jz4725b-tcu
 +  * ingenic,jz4770-tcu
+- reg: Should be the offset/length value corresponding to the TCU registers

 +- #address-cells: Should be <1>;
 +- #size-cells: Should be <1>;
 +- ranges: Should be one range for the full TCU registers area

These can all be implied.

Ok.

+- clocks: List of phandle & clock specifiers for clocks external to the TCU.
 +  The "pclk", "rtc", "ext" and "tcu" clocks should be provided.
 +- clock-names: List of name strings for the external clocks.
 +- #clock-cells: Should be <1>;
+ Clock consumers specify this argument to identify a clock. The valid values
 +  may be found in <dt-bindings/clock/ingenic,tcu.h>.
+- interrupt-controller : Identifies the node as an interrupt controller +- #interrupt-cells : Specifies the number of cells needed to encode an
 +  interrupt source. The value should be 1.
 +- interrupt-parent : phandle of the interrupt controller.
+- interrupts : Specifies the interrupt the controller is connected to.

How many and what are they. The example shows there are 3.

They are 2 or 3, and they are all the same (three parent IRQs for one irqchip).
It's explained in the hardware doc, should I add it here as well?

 +
 +Optional properties:
 +
+- ingenic,timer-channel: Specifies the TCU channel that should be used as + system timer. If not provided, the TCU channel 0 is used for the system timer.
 +
+- ingenic,clocksource-channel: Specifies the TCU channel that should be used + as clocksource and sched_clock. It must be a different channel than the one + used as system timer. If not provided, neither a clocksource nor a
 +  sched_clock is instantiated.

clocksource and sched_clock are Linux specific and don't belong in DT.
You should define properties of the hardware or use existing properties
like interrupts or clocks to figure out which channel to use. For
example, if some channels don't have an interrupt, then use them for
clocksource and not a clockevent. Or you could have timers that run in
low-power modes or not. If all the channels are identical, then it
shouldn't matter which ones the OS picks.

We already talked about that. All the TCU channels can be used for PWM.
The problem is I cannot know from the driver's scope which channels will
be free and which channels will be requested for PWM. You suggested that I parse the devicetree for clients, and I did that in the V3/V4 patchset. But it only works for clients requesting through devicetree, not from platform
code or even sysfs.

One thing I can try is to dynamically change the channels the system timer and clocksource are using when the current ones are requested for PWM. But
that sounds hardcore...

 +
 +Children nodes
 +==========================================================
 +
 +
 +PWM node:
 +---------
 +
 +Required properties:
 +
 +- compatible: Must be one of:
 +  * ingenic,jz4740-pwm
 +  * ingenic,jz4725b-pwm
+- #pwm-cells: Should be 3. See ../pwm/pwm.txt for a description of the cell
 +  format.
 +- clocks: List of phandle & clock specifiers for the TCU clocks.
 +- clock-names: List of name strings for the TCU clocks.
 +
 +
 +Watchdog node:
 +--------------
 +
 +Required properties:
 +
 +- compatible: Must be one of:
 +  * ingenic,jz4740-watchdog
 +  * ingenic,jz4780-watchdog
 +- clocks: phandle to the RTC clock
 +- clock-names: should be "rtc"
 +
 +
 +OST node:
 +---------
 +
 +Required properties:
 +
 +- compatible: Must be one of:
 +  * ingenic,jz4725b-ost
 +  * ingenic,jz4770-ost
 +- clocks: phandle to the OST clock
 +- clock-names: should be "ost"
 +- interrupts : Specifies the interrupt the OST is connected to.
 +
 +
 +Example
 +==========================================================
 +
 +#include <dt-bindings/clock/jz4770-cgu.h>
 +#include <dt-bindings/clock/ingenic,tcu.h>
 +
 +/ {
 +	tcu: timer@10002000 {
 +		compatible = "ingenic,jz4770-tcu";
 +		reg = <0x10002000 0x1000>;
 +		#address-cells = <1>;
 +		#size-cells = <1>;
 +		ranges = <0x0 0x10002000 0x1000>;
 +
 +		#clock-cells = <1>;
 +
 +		clocks = <&cgu JZ4770_CLK_RTC
 +			  &cgu JZ4770_CLK_EXT
 +			  &cgu JZ4770_CLK_PCLK
 +			  &cgu JZ4770_CLK_EXT>;
 +		clock-names = "rtc", "ext", "pclk", "tcu";
 +
 +		interrupt-controller;
 +		#interrupt-cells = <1>;
 +
 +		interrupt-parent = <&intc>;
 +		interrupts = <27 26 25>;
 +
 +		watchdog: watchdog@0 {
 +			compatible = "ingenic,jz4740-watchdog";
 +			reg = <0x0 0x10>;
 +
 +			clocks = <&tcu TCU_CLK_WDT>;
 +			clock-names = "wdt";
 +		};
 +
 +		pwm: pwm@10 {
 +			compatible = "ingenic,jz4740-pwm";
 +			reg = <0x10 0xff0>;
 +
 +			#pwm-cells = <3>;
 +
 +			clocks = <&tcu TCU_CLK_TIMER0
 +				  &tcu TCU_CLK_TIMER1
 +				  &tcu TCU_CLK_TIMER2
 +				  &tcu TCU_CLK_TIMER3
 +				  &tcu TCU_CLK_TIMER4
 +				  &tcu TCU_CLK_TIMER5
 +				  &tcu TCU_CLK_TIMER6
 +				  &tcu TCU_CLK_TIMER7>;
 +			clock-names = "timer0", "timer1", "timer2", "timer3",
 +				      "timer4", "timer5", "timer6", "timer7";
 +		};
 +
 +		ost: timer@e0 {
 +			compatible = "ingenic,jz4770-ost";
 +			reg = <0xe0 0x20>;

This is creating an overlapping region with PWM which should be avoided. Are timers and PWM the same h/w? Then there should be one node (or maybe
you can do 1 node per channel if each channel is independent (has its
own register range, clocks, interrupts, etc.

Or the PWM node needs to exclude this region (by having 2 reg regions).

I will use two regions then.


 +};

 +	};
 +
 +			clocks = <&tcu TCU_CLK_OST>;
 +			clock-names = "ost";
 +
 +			interrupts = <15>;
 +		};

Thanks,
