Generic device tree bindings for I2C busses
|
|
|
|
===========================================
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This document describes generic bindings which can be used to describe I2C
|
|
|
|
busses in a device tree.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Required properties
|
|
|
|
-------------------
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- #address-cells - should be <1>. Read more about addresses below.
|
|
|
|
- #size-cells - should be <0>.
|
|
|
|
- compatible - name of I2C bus controller following generic names
|
|
|
|
recommended practice.

|
|
For other required properties e.g. to describe register sets,
|
2015-08-08 18:35:18 +07:00
|
|
|
clocks, etc. check the binding documentation of the specific driver.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The cells properties above define that an address of children of an I2C bus
|
|
|
|
are described by a single value. This is usually a 7 bit address. However,
|
|
|
|
flags can be attached to the address. I2C_TEN_BIT_ADDRESS is used to mark a 10
|
|
|
|
bit address. It is needed to avoid the ambiguity between e.g. a 7 bit address
|
|
|
|
of 0x50 and a 10 bit address of 0x050 which, in theory, can be on the same bus.
|
|
|
|
Another flag is I2C_OWN_SLAVE_ADDRESS to mark addresses on which we listen to
|
|
|
|
be devices ourselves.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Optional properties
|
|
|
|
-------------------
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
These properties may not be supported by all drivers. However, if a driver
|
|
|
|
wants to support one of the below features, it should adapt the bindings below.
|
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
- clock-frequency - frequency of bus clock in Hz.
|
2015-08-08 18:35:18 +07:00
|
|
|
- wakeup-source - device can be used as a wakeup source.
|
2015-08-18 13:52:51 +07:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- interrupts - interrupts used by the device.
|
|
|
|
- interrupt-names - "irq" and "wakeup" names are recognized by I2C core,
|
|
|
|
other names are left to individual drivers.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Binding may contain optional "interrupts" property, describing interrupts
|
|
|
|
used by the device. I2C core will assign "irq" interrupt (or the very first
|
|
|
|
interrupt if not using interrupt names) as primary interrupt for the slave.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Also, if device is marked as a wakeup source, I2C core will set up "wakeup"
|
|
|
|
interrupt for the device. If "wakeup" interrupt name is not present in the
|
|
|
|
binding, then primary interrupt will be used as wakeup interrupt.
