From e8813c15be0a9e7f2c79c58d3329d92bcf056ecc Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Peter Rosin Date: Fri, 8 Jul 2016 12:12:17 +0200 Subject: dt-bindings: i2c: add support for 'i2c-arb' subnode This gets rid of the need for a pointless 'reg' property for i2c arbitrators. I.e. this new and more compact style some-arbitrator { i2c-arb { #address-cells = <1>; #size-cells = <0>; some-i2c-device@50 { reg = <0x50>; }; }; }; instead of the old some-arbitrator { #address-cells = <1>; #size-cells = <0>; i2c@0 { reg = <0>; #address-cells = <1>; #size-cells = <0>; some-i2c-device@50 { reg = <0x50>; }; }; }; Acked-by: Rob Herring Reviewed-by: Wolfram Sang Signed-off-by: Peter Rosin --- Documentation/devicetree/bindings/i2c/i2c-arb.txt | 35 +++++++++++++++++++++++ 1 file changed, 35 insertions(+) create mode 100644 Documentation/devicetree/bindings/i2c/i2c-arb.txt (limited to 'Documentation/devicetree/bindings/i2c/i2c-arb.txt') diff --git a/Documentation/devicetree/bindings/i2c/i2c-arb.txt b/Documentation/devicetree/bindings/i2c/i2c-arb.txt new file mode 100644 index 0000000..59abf92 --- /dev/null +++ b/Documentation/devicetree/bindings/i2c/i2c-arb.txt @@ -0,0 +1,35 @@ +Common i2c arbitration bus properties. + +- i2c-arb child node + +Required properties for the i2c-arb child node: +- #address-cells = <1>; +- #size-cells = <0>; + +Optional properties for i2c-arb child node: +- Child nodes conforming to i2c bus binding + + +Example : + + /* + An NXP pca9541 I2C bus master selector at address 0x74 + with a NXP pca8574 GPIO expander attached. + */ + + arb@74 { + compatible = "nxp,pca9541"; + reg = <0x74>; + + i2c-arb { + #address-cells = <1>; + #size-cells = <0>; + + gpio@38 { + compatible = "nxp,pca8574"; + reg = <0x38>; + #gpio-cells = <2>; + gpio-controller; + }; + }; + }; -- cgit v1.1
