+Qualcomm Hexagon Peripheral Image Loader
+
+This document defines the binding for a component that loads and boots firmware
+on the Qualcomm Hexagon core.
+
+- compatible:
+ Usage: required
+ Value type: <string>
+ Definition: must be one of:
+ "qcom,q6v5-pil"
+
+- reg:
+ Usage: required
+ Value type: <prop-encoded-array>
+ Definition: must specify the base address and size of the qdsp6 and
+ rmb register blocks
+
+- reg-names:
+ Usage: required
+ Value type: <stringlist>
+ Definition: must be "q6dsp" and "rmb"
+
+- interrupts-extended:
+ Usage: required
+ Value type: <prop-encoded-array>
+ Definition: must list the watchdog, fatal IRQs ready, handover and
+ stop-ack IRQs
+
+- interrupt-names:
+ Usage: required
+ Value type: <stringlist>
+ Definition: must be "wdog", "fatal", "ready", "handover", "stop-ack"
+
+- clocks:
+ Usage: required
+ Value type: <phandle>
+ Definition: reference to the iface, bus and mem clocks to be held on
+ behalf of the booting of the Hexagon core
+
+- clock-names:
+ Usage: required
+ Value type: <stringlist>
+ Definition: must be "iface", "bus", "mem"
+
+- resets:
+ Usage: required
+ Value type: <phandle>
+ Definition: reference to the reset-controller for the modem sub-system
+
+- reset-names:
+ Usage: required
+ Value type: <stringlist>
+ Definition: must be "mss_restart"
+
+- cx-supply:
+- mss-supply:
+- mx-supply:
+- pll-supply:
+ Usage: required
+ Value type: <phandle>
+ Definition: reference to the regulators to be held on behalf of the
+ booting of the Hexagon core
+
+- qcom,smem-states:
+ Usage: required
+ Value type: <phandle>
+ Definition: reference to the smem state for requesting the Hexagon to
+ shut down
+
+- qcom,smem-state-names:
+ Usage: required
+ Value type: <stringlist>
+ Definition: must be "stop"
+
+- qcom,halt-regs:
+ Usage: required
+ Value type: <prop-encoded-array>
+ Definition: a phandle reference to a syscon representing TCSR followed
+ by the three offsets within syscon for q6, modem and nc
+ halt registers.
+
+= SUBNODES:
+The Hexagon node must contain two subnodes, named "mba" and "mpss" representing
+the memory regions used by the Hexagon firmware. Each sub-node must contain:
+
+- memory-region:
+ Usage: required
+ Value type: <phandle>
+ Definition: reference to the reserved-memory for the region
+
+= EXAMPLE
+The following example describes the resources needed to boot control the
+Hexagon, as it is found on MSM8974 boards.
