altr,msgdma¶

Vendor: Altera Corp.

Description¶

These nodes are “dma” bus nodes.

Altera mSGDMA (Modular Scatter-Gather DMA)

Properties¶

Properties not inherited from the base binding file.

Name	Type	Details
`#dma-cells`	`int`	Number of items to expect in a DMA specifier This property is required.
`dma-channel-mask`	`int`	Bitmask of available DMA channels in ascending order that are not reserved by firmware and are available to the kernel. i.e. first channel corresponds to LSB.
`dma-channels`	`int`	Number of DMA channels supported by the controller
`dma-requests`	`int`	Number of DMA request signals supported by the controller.

Properties inherited from the base binding file, which defines common properties that may be set on many nodes. Not all of these may apply to the “altr,msgdma” compatible.

Name	Type	Details
`reg`	`array`	register space This property is required. See Important properties for more information.
`interrupts`	`array`	interrupts for device This property is required. See Important properties for more information.
`label`	`string`	Human readable string describing the device (used as device_get_binding() argument) This property is required. See Important properties for more information.
`status`	`string`	indicates the operational status of a device Legal values: `'ok'`, `'okay'`, `'disabled'`, `'reserved'`, `'fail'`, `'fail-sss'` See Important properties for more information.
`compatible`	`string-array`	compatible strings This property is required. See Important properties for more information.
`reg-names`	`string-array`	name of each register space
`interrupts-extended`	`compound`	extended interrupt specifier for device
`interrupt-names`	`string-array`	name of each interrupt
`interrupt-parent`	`phandle`	phandle to interrupt controller node
`clocks`	`phandle-array`	Clock gate information
`clock-names`	`string-array`	name of each clock
`#address-cells`	`int`	number of address cells in reg property
`#size-cells`	`int`	number of size cells in reg property
`dmas`	`phandle-array`	DMA channels specifiers
`dma-names`	`string-array`	Provided names of DMA channel specifiers
`io-channels`	`phandle-array`	IO channels specifiers
`io-channel-names`	`string-array`	Provided names of IO channel specifiers
`wakeup-source`	`boolean`	Property to identify that a device can be used as wake up source. When this property is provided a specific flag is set into the device that tells the system that the device is capable of wake up the system. Wake up capable devices are disabled (interruptions will not wake up the system) by default but they can be enabled at runtime if necessary.
