Need to be explicit about what each entry is.

Looks like a matrix rather than an array.

What is in these holes in the memory map? Is this part of some larger 
block? If so, that block needs to be described.

That's an interesting approach.

But what about just hardcoding this into the driver instead?

If you have the compatible, surely you know these indexes from
that compatible string?

Hi Rob,

Thank you for reviewing this patch.

They are
  - MSCR registers group 0 managed by the SIUL2 controller #0
  - MSCR registers group 1 managed by the SIUL2 controller #1
  - MSCR registers group 2 managed by the SIUL2 controller #1
  - IMCR registers group 0 managed by the SIUL2 controller #0
  - IMCR registers group 1 managed by the SIUL2 controller #1
  - IMCR registers group 2 managed by the SIUL2 controller #1

  - MSCR: Multiplexed Signal Configuration Register
    An MSCR register can configure the associated pin as either a GPIO pin
    or a function output pin depends on the selected signal source.
  - IMCR: Input Multiplexed Signal Configuration Register
    An IMCR register can configure the associated pin as function input
    pin depends on the selected signal source.


I will add descriptions for each entry in v2, thanks.

It's IMCR range but not the 2nd MSCR range, will fix it in v2.

In this case S32G contains two SIUL2 controllers, which are located in two
different memory regions, siul2_0@4009C000 and siul2_1@44010000. The siul2_0
contains the MSCR0-MSCR101 [starts at 0x4009c240] and IMCR0-IMCR83 [starts
at 0x4009ca40] registers, and there are some other reserved regions and
registers which are not related to pin muxing in siul2 memory ranges. Not sure
what the original reason it could be, but the expanded MSCR112-MSCR122, MSCR144
-MSCR190 and IMCR119-IMCR397, IMCR430-IMCR495 registers are present in
siul2_1's memory space. Besides, in the S32G pin map, some indexes are hidden
since they're not used as pinouts, such as MSCR indexes 102-111, 123-143, and
IMCR indexes 84-118, 398-429.

Anyway, that's why they look so fragmented. I will add more descriptions for
each entry in v2.

Chester

The nxp,pins property is more like a common language that both kernel and
u-boot can share with. Of course hardcoding indexes can be achieved as well
but that also means the index matrices in both kernel driver and u-boot driver
must be revised and synchronized if new boards may have different reg and
nxp,pins. IMHO, having these ID ranges in DT could be more intuitive, developers
can easily compare every pair with the corresponding reg entry in the same dts
file since reg maps are fragmented as I mentioned in Rob's code review[1].
Based on this approach, both kernel driver and u-boot driver can reuse the
same parser to acquire pin ID ranges from different boards, which can also
simplify codes and have less patches in the future.

Chester

Is it new *BOARDS* that need a new table really or new *SOC:s*?

I was under the impression that this is per-soc and then it can be derived
from the compatible string and should be in the driver.

If it is something that vary from board to board then it should be in the
device tree because it can not be derived from the version of the hardware
i.e the compatible string.

So which one is it?

Linus Walleij

Yes, the "nxp,pins" property only depends on the SoC. It will not change from board to board(boards using the same SoC). It can be derived from the compatible string.
