[v4,01/10] dt-bindings: iommu: Add Translation Buffer Unit bindings

  Add common bindings for the TBUs to describe their properties. The
TBUs are modelled as child devices of the IOMMU and each of them is
described with their compatible, reg and stream-id-range properties.
There could be other implementation specific properties to describe
any resources like clocks, regulators, power-domains, interconnects
that would be needed for TBU operation. Such properties will be
documented in a separate vendor-specific TBU schema.

However, that's going to break with the extra QCom properties. In 
json-schema, you can't have 2 schemas and extend the properties of 
their child nodes. The validator doesn't "see" the child node schemas at 
the same time. You are going to have to move QCom SMMU to its own schema 
and remove it from arm,smmu.yaml.

Although this common binding is pretty pointless - sorry I missed the 
previous discussion, but these TBU registers are on obscure debugging 
feature of Qualcomm's own invention and definitely not generic. The 
internal topology of the unmodified Arm MMU-500 implementation isn't 
software-visible at all without getting into its own integration and 
debug registers (and maybe to a lesser extent the PMU), and even then 
everything is proxied through the TCU via an internal AXI stream 
interconnect, so there aren't really any TBU-owned resources which would 
warrant describing as such in DT. If anything, the way this binding is 
defined as an MMIO bus with "ranges" would actively *prevent* being able 
to describe the standard hardware this way, since the internal debug 
stuff all wants to refer to TBUs by numerical index.

Conversely, given that the Qualcomm TBU registers seem to be describing 
their own entirely independent resources and inheriting nothing from the 
parent node, I'm not sure it's necessarily worth all the bother of 
describing and supporting them them as children at all, when they could 
just as well be standalone nodes with a phandle to associate an SMMU 
instance.

Thanks,
Robin.

Actually, even this doesn't work - for the 15-bit StreamID config, 
there's no guarantee that the devices behind each TBU will use a single 
contiguous StreamID range. Conversely, for any other config the 
StreamIDs are already uniquely associated with a TBU by their top 5 
bits, so the "size" doesn't matter.

Thanks,
Robin.

Hi Robin,

I am not sure if your comments were resolved (no response here), so
please kindly check if nothing got lost from your feedback in v5:
