You've only added to my confusion. 'syscrg' and 'sys-syscon' are 2 different h/w blocks and unrelated to each other? Or 'syscrg' is the clock portion of 'sys-syscon'? In that case, 'syscrg' should be a child of 'sys-syscon' or possibly just all one node. Please provide details on the entire h/w block so we can provide better input on the bindings. Rob

Hardware engineers took pure Linux name and used it? Yes, from the documentation I could find[1] there are CRG blocks (Clock and Reset Generator) and SYSCON blocks: SYS CRG STG CRG AON CRG SYS SYSCON STG SYSCON AON SYSCON The CRG blocks contain registers to control clocks and resets that follow a pattern used by the clock and reset drivers. The SYSCON blocks just seem to contain registers to control whatever didn't fit in any other blocks, but might be vaguely related to the peripherals that run off clocks controlled by the corresponding CRG block.

Hardware engineers took pure Linux name and used it? Their TRM uses the term SYSCON for these, yes. Eg: "The JH7110 system provides the following STG SYSCON control registers which provides [sic] clock and reset signals to interfaces..." In fact, the TRM I have describes the following system control register blocks: SYS CRG STG CRG AON CRG SYS SYSCON STG SYSCON AON SYSCON SYS IOMUX CFG AON IOMUX CFG My understanding is that the first 3 (the CRG ones) are concerned with clocks and resets & the second 3 contain "random" configuration options, such as their QSPI IP's configuration options, GPIO voltage settings etc. Each of these has a separate, 0x1000 aligned, block in the memory map. Cheers, Conor.

The memory map [1] suggests these are indeed separate address spaces, e.g. AON CRG, AON SYSCON and AON GPIO, but now I would argue that this might be still one device - AON (or STG, SYS). Just like PCIE0 has four address spaces, it does not mean you have four separate PCIE0 devices. You have only one PCIE0, just like you have only one AON, one STG and one SYS (System).

I see what you mean, but if you look into what the registers in the SYSCON blocks actually do it's not clear to me that they should be grouped with the clocks/resets any more than say the pinctrl/GPIO node. Maybe it's my fault for not giving you the full picture. Eg. for "system" and "always-on" there are blocks: SYS CRG SYS SYSCON SYS IOMUX AON CRG AON SYSCON AON IOMUX ..and it really don't see why eg. SYS CRG and SYS SYSCON should be thought of as one device, but not include SYS IOMUX then. As an examly the SYS SYSCON includes registers to control: - remapping of different peripherals from SD controller to video encoders - voltage select for certain GPIO pins - phy interface selection for ethernet and CAN - QuadSPI delay chain and SRAM configuration - PLL configuration - endian selection for the SD controller To me this is pretty much exactly described by the syscon device tree binding: "System controller node represents a register region containing a set of miscellaneous registers. The registers are not cohesive enough to represent as any specific type of device. [..]" In any case it's clear that however the SYSCON blocks are represented in the device tree, a driver for it would need to export registers in the SYSCON block for other drivers to use. /Emil > [1] https://doc-en.rvspace.org/JH7110/TRM/JH7110_TRM/system_memory_map.html > > > Best regards, > Krzysztof >

You started entire sentence with "but" so you disagree but with what exactly? The naming? But syscon is fine - hardware manual calls it like that. The point was that AON is one device (consisting of multiple blocks). Best regards, Krzysztof

This would at least take the view that the blocks named alike should be thought of as a single device to its logical conclusion. Unfortunately we're a bit late for that. The pinctrl/GPiO bindings and drivers are already merged: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/?id=d6e0a660097dcdb80e7c5c859eb12f776060b02e > > > > As an examly the SYS SYSCON includes registers to control: > > - remapping of different peripherals from SD controller to video encoders > > - voltage select for certain GPIO pins > > - phy interface selection for ethernet and CAN > > - QuadSPI delay chain and SRAM configuration > > - PLL configuration > > - endian selection for the SD controller > > > > To me this is pretty much exactly described by the syscon device tree binding: > > "System controller node represents a register region containing a set > > of miscellaneous registers.

Yes, and what I'm trying to explain is that I'm not convinced that's the right model. The CRG blocks and IOMUX blocks don't really have anything in common other than the name StarFive gave them. You can argue that the CRG and IOMUX blocks overlap with the corresponding SYSCON block, but so do a lot of other peripherals as you can see from the list above. I think the IOMUX and SYSCON blocks are just named after the clock domain they're under, but a lot of other peripherals are also under the SYS and AON clock domains and we don't model them as one big device. /Emil > > Best regards, > Krzysztof >

I went and bothered Rob/Krzysztof on IRC about this. Not gonna speak for them, but I think they're now okay with keeping the SYS_CRG (clock+reset block) separate from the SYS_SYSCON block ("random collection of registers"). Possibly there was just confusion due to the naming used here, thinking that "SYS", "STG" and "AON" were devices with two register blocks, as opposed to being the name of a clock/power domain on the SoC. I'll leave it up to them to confirm that though! Cheers, Conor.
