Description

Nordic VEVIF (VPR Event Interface) - TASK RX MODE

VEVIF is an event interface for VPR, allowing connection to the domain's DPPI
system. VEVIF can also generate IRQs to other CPUs.

VEVIF provides support for inter-domain software signaling. It implements a set of tasks
intended for signaling within an interprocessor communication (IPC) framework.
When used in task rx mode, the VEVIF tasks are used to receive events triggered by other core.

Example definition:

  cpuppr: cpu@d {
    ...
    cpuppr_vevif_task_rx: mailbox {
      compatible = "nordic,nrf-vevif-task-rx";
      interrupts = <0 NRF_DEFAULT_IRQ_PRIORITY>,
                   <1 NRF_DEFAULT_IRQ_PRIORITY>,
                   ...
                   <N NRF_DEFAULT_IRQ_PRIORITY>;
      #mbox-cells = <1>;
      nordic,tasks = <16>;
      nordic,tasks-mask = <0xfffffff0>;
    };
  };

Name

Type

Details

interrupts

array

 
interrupts for device

This property is required.

See Important properties for more information.

status

string

 
indicates the operational status of a device

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

See Important properties for more information.

compatible

string-array

 
compatible strings

This property is required.

See Important properties for more information.

reg

array

 
register space

See Important properties for more information.

reg-names

string-array

 
name of each register space

interrupts-extended

compound

 
extended interrupt specifier for device

interrupt-names

string-array

 
name of each interrupt

interrupt-parent

phandle

 
phandle to interrupt controller node

label

string

 
Human readable string describing the device (used as device_get_binding() argument)

See Important properties for more information.

This property is deprecated.

clocks

phandle-array

 
Clock gate information

clock-names

string-array

 
name of each clock

#address-cells

int

 
number of address cells in reg property

#size-cells

int

 
number of size cells in reg property

dmas

phandle-array

 
DMA channels specifiers

dma-names

string-array

 
Provided names of DMA channel specifiers

io-channels

phandle-array

 
IO channels specifiers

io-channel-names

string-array

 
Provided names of IO channel specifiers

mboxes

phandle-array

 
mailbox / IPM channels specifiers

mbox-names

string-array

power-domains

phandle-array

 
Power domain specifiers

power-domain-names

string-array

#power-domain-cells

int

 
Number of cells in power-domains 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.
