Message-ID<tr0pQ-2e1-11@gated-at.bofh.it>
Amlogic SoCs have a SoC information register for SoC type, package type and
revision information.
This patchset adds support for this register decoding and exposing with the
SoC bus infrastructure, with dt-bindings and DT node.

The register location would hint that this is in the middle of some block of
random registers, i.e. a syscon or some unrelated device.

Are you sure that "socinfo" is the actual name of the IP block and that
it only has a single 32-bit register?

Hi Arnd,

I'm sorry I did not find any relevant registers in the docs or source code describing
it in a specific block of registers, and no close enough register definitions either.
They may be used by the secure firmware I imagine.

For the register name, Amlogic refers it to "cpu_version" in their code, but it really
gives some details on the whole SoC and package, and socinfo seems better.

A register at address 0x220 seems a bit strange (unless there's ranges 
you're not showing), but ROM code at this address would be fairly 
typical. And putting version information into the ROM is also common.

Hi Rob.

Indeed it's part of a larger range :
                 aobus: aobus@c8100000 {
                        compatible = "simple-bus";
                        reg = <0x0 0xc8100000 0x0 0x100000>;
                        #address-cells = <2>;
                        #size-cells = <2>;
                        ranges = <0x0 0x0 0x0 0xc8100000 0x0 0x100000>;


While scrubbing on the uboot source, I found a sort of block of registers dedicated to communicate with

As you see, the register we use here is AO_SEC_SD_CFG8...

Should I define all this block as simple-mfd and refer to it as a regmap ?

aobus: aobus@c8100000 {
	compatible = "simple-bus";
	reg = <0x0 0xc8100000 0x0 0x100000>;
	#address-cells = <2>;
	#size-cells = <2>;
	ranges = <0x0 0x0 0x0 0xc8100000 0x0 0x100000>;

	ao_secure: ao-secure@140 {
		compatible = "amlogic,meson-gx-ao-secure", "simple-mfd";
		reg = <0x0 0x140 0x0 0x140>;
	};
};

chipid {
	compatible = "amlogic,meson-gx-socinfo";
	ao-secure = <&ao_secure>;
	chip-info-reg = <0xe0>;
};

Rob, I don't get it.

Maybe something like that ?

aobus: aobus@c8100000 {
        compatible = "simple-bus";
        reg = <0x0 0xc8100000 0x0 0x100000>;
        #address-cells = <2>;
        #size-cells = <2>;
        ranges = <0x0 0x0 0x0 0xc8100000 0x0 0x100000>;

        ao_secure: ao-secure@140 {
                compatible = "amlogic,meson-gx-ao-secure", "simple-mfd", "simple-bus";
                reg = <0x0 0x140 0x0 0x140>;
		#address-cells = <1>;
		#size-cells = <1>;

		chipid@e0 {
        		compatible = "amlogic,meson-gx-socinfo";
			reg = <0xe0 0x4>;
        	};
	};
};

Concerning the fine graining, I'm sorry but the actual information comes from a single register here...

That's somewhat better, though your addressing is wrong.

Yes, but the only useful information here is really "0xe0". I imagine
you also want "amlogic,meson-gx-socinfo" to instantiate a driver, but
that's not a reason to put a node into DT. You can just easily have
whatever handles "amlogic,meson-gx-ao-secure" provide the version
information out of register 0xe0.
