-NXP i.MX Messaging Unit (MU)
---------------------------------------------------------------------
-
-The Messaging Unit module enables two processors within the SoC to
-communicate and coordinate by passing messages (e.g. data, status
-and control) through the MU interface. The MU also provides the ability
-for one processor to signal the other processor using interrupts.
-
-Because the MU manages the messaging between processors, the MU uses
-different clocks (from each side of the different peripheral buses).
-Therefore, the MU must synchronize the accesses from one side to the
-other. The MU accomplishes synchronization using two sets of matching
-registers (Processor A-facing, Processor B-facing).
-
-Messaging Unit Device Node:
-=============================
-
-Required properties:
--------------------
-- compatible : should be "fsl,<chip>-mu", the supported chips include
- imx6sx, imx7s, imx8qxp, imx8qm.
- The "fsl,imx6sx-mu" compatible is seen as generic and should
- be included together with SoC specific compatible.
- There is a version 1.0 MU on imx7ulp, use "fsl,imx7ulp-mu"
- compatible to support it.
- To communicate with i.MX8 SCU, "fsl,imx8-mu-scu" could be
- used for fast IPC
-- reg : Should contain the registers location and length
-- interrupts : Interrupt number. The interrupt specifier format depends
- on the interrupt controller parent.
-- #mbox-cells: Must be 2.
- <&phandle type channel>
- phandle : Label name of controller
- type : Channel type
- channel : Channel number
-
- This MU support 4 type of unidirectional channels, each type
- has 4 channels. A total of 16 channels. Following types are
- supported:
- 0 - TX channel with 32bit transmit register and IRQ transmit
- acknowledgment support.
- 1 - RX channel with 32bit receive register and IRQ support
- 2 - TX doorbell channel. Without own register and no ACK support.
- 3 - RX doorbell channel.
-
-Optional properties:
--------------------
-- clocks : phandle to the input clock.
-- fsl,mu-side-b : Should be set for side B MU.
-
-Examples:
---------
-lsio_mu0: mailbox@5d1b0000 {
- compatible = "fsl,imx8qxp-mu";
- reg = <0x0 0x5d1b0000 0x0 0x10000>;
- interrupts = <GIC_SPI 176 IRQ_TYPE_LEVEL_HIGH>;
- #mbox-cells = <2>;
-};
