Controller ---------- Required properties: - compatible : Should be "st,stih407-mailbox" - reg : Offset and length of the device's register set - mbox-name : Name of the mailbox - #mbox-cells: : Must be 2 <&phandle instance channel direction> phandle : Label name of controller instance : Instance number channel : Channel number Optional properties - interrupts : Contains the IRQ line for a Rx mailbox Example: mailbox0: mailbox@0 { compatible = "st,stih407-mailbox"; reg = <0x08f00000 0x1000>; interrupts = <GIC_SPI 1 IRQ_TYPE_NONE>; #mbox-cells = <2>; mbox-name = "a9"; }; Client ------ Required properties: - compatible : Many (See the client docs) - reg : Shared (between Application and Remote) memory address - mboxes : Standard property to specify a Mailbox (See ./mailbox.txt) Cells must match 'mbox-cells' (See Controller docs above) Optional properties - mbox-names : Name given to channels seen in the 'mboxes' property. Example: mailbox_test { compatible = "mailbox-test"; reg = <0x[shared_memory_address], [shared_memory_size]>; mboxes = <&mailbox2 0 1>, <&mailbox0 2 1>; mbox-names = "tx", "rx"; }; |
