* Freescale IOMUX Controller (IOMUXC) for i.MX The IOMUX Controller (IOMUXC), together with the IOMUX, enables the IC to share one PAD to several functional blocks. The sharing is done by multiplexing the PAD input/output signals. For each PAD there are up to 8 muxing options (called ALT modes). Since different modules require different PAD settings (like pull up, keeper, etc) the IOMUXC controls also the PAD settings parameters. Please refer to pinctrl-bindings.txt in this directory for details of the common pinctrl bindings used by client devices, including the meaning of the phrase "pin configuration node". Freescale IMX pin configuration node is a node of a group of pins which can be used for a specific device or function. This node represents both mux and config of the pins in that group. The 'mux' selects the function mode(also named mux mode) this pin can work on and the 'config' configures various pad settings such as pull-up, open drain, drive strength, etc. Required properties for iomux controller: - compatible: "fsl,-iomuxc" Please refer to each fsl,-pinctrl.txt binding doc for supported SoCs. Required properties for pin configuration node: - fsl,pins: each entry consists of 6 integers and represents the mux and config setting for one pin. The first 5 integers are specified using a PIN_FUNC_ID macro, which can be found in imx*-pinfunc.h under device tree source folder. The last integer CONFIG is the pad setting value like pull-up on this pin. And that's why fsl,pins entry looks like in the example below. Bits used for CONFIG: NO_PAD_CTL(1 << 31): indicate this pin does not need config. SION(1 << 30): Software Input On Field. Force the selected mux mode input path no matter of MUX_MODE functionality. By default the input path is determined by functionality of the selected mux mode (regular). Other bits are used for PAD setting. Please refer to each fsl,-pinctrl,txt binding doc for SoC specific part of bits definitions. NOTE: Some requirements for using fsl,imx-pinctrl binding: 1. We have pin function node defined under iomux controller node to represent what pinmux functions this SoC supports. 2. The pin configuration node intends to work on a specific function should to be defined under that specific function node. The function node's name should represent well about what function this group of pins in this pin configuration node are working on. 3. The driver can use the function node's name and pin configuration node's name describe the pin function and group hierarchy. For example, Linux IMX pinctrl driver takes the function node's name as the function name and pin configuration node's name as group name to create the map table. 4. Each pin configuration node should have a phandle, devices can set pins configurations by referring to the phandle of that pin configuration node.
