It can +be programmed in AC97, I2S, left-justified, or right-justified modes. + +Required properties: +- compatible : compatible list, containing "fsl,ssi" +- cell-index : the SSI, <0> = SSI1, <1> = SSI2, and so on +- reg : offset and length of the register set for the device +- interrupts : <a b> where a is the interrupt number and b is a + field that represents an encoding of the sense and + level information for the interrupt. This should be + encoded based on the information in section 2) + depending on the type of interrupt controller you + have. +- interrupt-parent : the phandle for the interrupt controller that + services interrupts for this device. +- fsl,mode : the operating mode for the SSI interface + "i2s-slave" - I2S mode, SSI is clock slave + "i2s-master" - I2S mode, SSI is clock master + "lj-slave" - left-justified mode, SSI is clock slave + "lj-master" - l.j. mode, SSI is clock master + "rj-slave" - right-justified mode, SSI is clock slave + "rj-master" - r.j., SSI is clock master + "ac97-slave" - AC97 mode, SSI is clock slave + "ac97-master" - AC97 mode, SSI is clock master +- fsl,playback-dma: phandle to a node for the DMA channel to use for + playback of audio. This is typically dictated by SOC + design. See the notes below. +- fsl,capture-dma: phandle to a node for the DMA channel to use for + capture (recording) of audio. This is typically dictated + by SOC design. See the notes below. + +Optional properties: +- codec-handle : phandle to a 'codec' node that defines an audio + codec connected to this SSI. This node is typically + a child of an I2C or other control node. + +Child 'codec' node required properties: +- compatible : compatible list, contains the name of the codec + +Child 'codec' node optional properties: +- clock-frequency : The frequency of the input clock, which typically + comes from an on-board dedicated oscillator. + +Notes on fsl,playback-dma and fsl,capture-dma: + +On SOCs that have an SSI, specific DMA channels are hard-wired for playback +and capture. On the MPC8610, for example, SSI1 must use DMA channel 0 for +playback and DMA channel 1 for capture. SSI2 must use DMA channel 2 for +playback and DMA channel 3 for capture. The developer can choose which +DMA controller to use, but the channels themselves are hard-wired. The +purpose of these two properties is to represent this hardware design. + +The device tree nodes for the DMA channels that are referenced by +"fsl,playback-dma" and "fsl,capture-dma" must be marked as compatible with +"fsl,ssi-dma-channel". The SOC-specific compatible string (e.g. +"fsl,mpc8610-dma-channel") can remain. If these nodes are left as +"fsl,elo-dma-channel" or "fsl,eloplus-dma-channel", then the generic Elo DMA +drivers (fsldma) will attempt to use them, and it will conflict with the +sound drivers. |
