nxp,espi

Description

These nodes are “espi” bus nodes.

NXP MCX A series eSPI target controller.

The peripheral has up to 5 configurable I/O ports.
Each port is described by a child node whose reg property gives
the hardware port index (0-4).

Deprecated node specific properties

Deprecated properties not inherited from the base binding file.

(None)

Base properties

Properties inherited from the base binding file, which defines common properties that may be set on many nodes. Not all of these may apply to the “nxp,espi” compatible.

Name

Type

Details

reg

array

Information used to address the device. The value is specific to
the device (i.e. is different depending on the compatible
property).

The "reg" property is typically a sequence of (address, length) pairs.
Each pair is called a "register block". Values are
conventionally written in hex.

For details, see "2.3.6 reg" in Devicetree Specification v0.4.

This property is required.

See Important properties for more information.

interrupts

array

Information about interrupts generated by the device, encoded as an array
of one or more interrupt specifiers. The format of the data in this property
varies by where the device appears in the interrupt tree. Devices with the same
"interrupt-parent" will use the same format in their interrupts properties.

For details, see "2.4 Interrupts and Interrupt Mapping" in
Devicetree Specification v0.4.

This property is required.

See Important properties for more information.

clocks

phandle-array

Information about the device's clock providers. In general, this property
should follow conventions established in the dt-schema binding:

  https://github.com/devicetree-org/dt-schema/blob/main/dtschema/schemas/clock/clock.yaml

This property is required.

status

string

Indicates the operational status of the hardware or other
resource that the node represents. In particular:

  - "okay" means the resource is operational and, for example,
    can be used by device drivers
  - "disabled" means the resource is not operational and the system
    should treat it as if it is not present

For details, see "2.3.4 status" in Devicetree Specification v0.4.

Legal values: okay, disabled, reserved, fail, fail-sss

See Important properties for more information.

compatible

string-array

This property is a list of strings that essentially define what
type of hardware or other resource this devicetree node
represents. Each device driver checks for specific compatible
property values to find the devicetree nodes that represent
resources that the driver should manage.

The recommended format is "vendor,device", The "vendor" part is
an abbreviated name of the vendor. The "device" is usually from
the datasheet.

The compatible property can have multiple values, ordered from
most- to least-specific. Having additional values is useful when the
device is a specific instance of a more general family, to allow the
system to match the most specific driver available.

For details, see "2.3.1 compatible" in Devicetree Specification v0.4.

This property is required.

See Important properties for more information.

reg-names

string-array

Optional names given to each register block in the "reg" property.
For example:

  / {
       soc {
           #address-cells = <1>;
           #size-cells = <1>;

           uart@1000 {
               reg = <0x1000 0x2000>, <0x3000 0x4000>;
               reg-names = "foo", "bar";
           };
       };
  };

The uart@1000 node has two register blocks:

  - one with base address 0x1000, size 0x2000, and name "foo"
  - another with base address 0x3000, size 0x4000, and name "bar"

ranges

compound

Information used to define a mapping (or translation) between the address
space of a bus (the "child address space") and the address space of the
bus node's parent (the "parent address space").

The "ranges" property is typically empty, or a sequence of triplets
(child bus address, parent bus address, length).

If the "ranges" property is empty, it specifies that the parent and child
address spaces are identical and no address translation is required.

If the "ranges" property is not present in a bus node, it is assumed that
no mapping exists between children of the node and the parent address space.

For details, see "2.3.8 ranges" in Devicetree Specification v0.4.

interrupts-extended

compound

Extended interrupt specifier for device, used as an alternative to
the "interrupts" property.

For details, see "2.4 Interrupts and Interrupt Mapping" in
Devicetree Specification v0.4.

interrupt-names

string-array

Optional names given to each interrupt generated by a device.
The interrupts themselves are defined in either "interrupts" or
"interrupts-extended" properties.

For details, see "2.4 Interrupts and Interrupt Mapping" in
Devicetree Specification v0.4.

interrupt-parent

phandle

If present, this refers to the node which handles interrupts generated
by this device.

For details, see "2.4 Interrupts and Interrupt Mapping" in
Devicetree Specification v0.4.

label

string

Human readable string describing the device. Use of this property is
deprecated except as needed on a case-by-case basis.

For details, see "4.1.2 Miscellaneous Properties" in Devicetree
Specification v0.4.

See Important properties for more information.

clock-names

string-array

Optional names given to each clock provider in the "clocks" property.

#address-cells

int

This property encodes the number of <u32> cells used by address fields
in "reg" properties in this node's children.

For details, see "2.3.5 #address-cells and #size-cells" in Devicetree
Specification v0.4.

#size-cells

int

This property encodes the number of <u32> cells used by size fields in
"reg" properties in this node's children.

For details, see "2.3.5 #address-cells and #size-cells" in Devicetree
Specification v0.4.

dma-coherent

boolean

Indicates that the device is capable of coherent DMA operations.

For details, see "2.3.10 dma-coherent" in Devicetree Specification v0.4.

dmas

phandle-array

DMA channel specifiers relevant to the device.

dma-names

string-array

Optional names given to the DMA channel specifiers in the "dmas" property.

dma-ranges

compound

The dma-ranges provides a means of defining a mapping or translation between the
physical address space of the bus and the physical address space of the parent of the bus.

For details, see "2.3.9 dma-ranges" in Devicetree Specification v0.4.

io-channels

phandle-array

IO channel specifiers relevant to the device.

io-channel-names

string-array

Optional names given to the IO channel specifiers in the "io-channels" property.

power-domains

phandle-array

Power domain specifiers relevant to the device.

power-domain-names

string-array

Optional names given to the power domain specifiers in the "power-domains" property.

#power-domain-cells

int

Number of cells in power-domains property

hwlocks

phandle-array

HW spinlock id relevant to the device.

hwlock-names

string-array

Optional names given to the hwlock specifiers in the "hwlocks" property.

zephyr,deferred-init

boolean

Do not initialize device automatically on boot. Device should be manually
initialized using device_init().

wakeup-source

boolean

Property to identify that a device can be used as wake up source.

When this property is provided a specific flag is set into the
device that tells the system that the device is capable of
wake up the system.

Wake up capable devices are disabled (interruptions will not wake up
the system) by default but they can be enabled at runtime if necessary.

zephyr,pm-device-runtime-auto

boolean

Automatically configure the device for runtime power management after the
init function runs.

zephyr,disabling-power-states

phandles

List of power states that will disable this device power.

Child node properties

Name

Type

Details

reg

int

Hardware port index. The driver maps each child node to the hardware
port at that index in declaration order, so child nodes must cover
every index from 0 up to the highest used port without gaps.
Use port-type = <0x0> as a placeholder for any index in that range
that requires no active function.

This property is required.

See Important properties for more information.

port-type

int

Port function type. The hardware port slot number equals the position
of this child node in the sorted child list, so all indices from 0 to
the highest active port must be present.
  0x0 = Unconfigured
  0x1 = ACPI Endpoint
  0x2 = ACPI Index-Data
  0x4 = Bus Master Memory
  0x5 = Bus Master Flash
  0x8 = Mailbox Shared
  0x9 = Mailbox Single
  0xA = Mailbox Split
  0xB = Mailbox OOB Split
  0xC = Mailbox OEM
