In order to save space, property names, which are generally redundant,
are stored separately in the "strings" block. This block is simply the

by the trampoline code in the kernel's prom_init() file. For example,
that's where you'll have to add code to detect your board model and

entry point, there is no prom_init() pass, and thus you have to
provide those properties yourself.

and there exist an OF bus binding, then you should follow the
specification. However, the kernel does not require every single
device or bus to be described by the device tree.

parent bus type, based on the #address-cells and #size-cells

Those 2 properties define 'cells' for representing an address and a
-size. A "cell" is a 32 bit number. For example, if both contain 2

is the way Apple firmware defines them, with 2 cells for an address

prom_parse.c file of the recent kernels for your bus type.

-2) Specifying interrupt information for SOC devices
----------------------------------------------------
-
-Each device that is part of an SOC and which generates interrupts
-should have the following properties:
-
- - interrupt-parent : contains the phandle of the interrupt
- controller which handles interrupts for this device
- - interrupts : a list of tuples representing the interrupt
- number and the interrupt sense and level for each interupt
- for this device.
-
-This information is used by the kernel to build the interrupt table
-for the interrupt controllers in the system.
-
-Sense and level information should be encoded as follows:
-
- Devices connected to openPIC-compatible controllers should encode
- sense and polarity as follows:
-
- 0 = low to high edge sensitive type enabled
- 1 = active low level sensitive type enabled
- 2 = active high level sensitive type enabled
- 3 = high to low edge sensitive type enabled
-
- ISA PIC interrupt controllers should adhere to the ISA PIC
- encodings listed below:
-
- 0 = active low level sensitive type enabled
- 1 = active high level sensitive type enabled
- 2 = high to low edge sensitive type enabled
- 3 = low to high edge sensitive type enabled

+2) Representing devices without a current OF specification
----------------------------------------------------------
Currently, there are many devices on SOCs that do not have a standard
defined; this list will expand as more and more SOC-containing
platforms are moved over to use the flattened-device-tree model.
- a) MDIO IO device
-
- The MDIO is a bus to which the PHY devices are connected. For each
- device that exists on this bus, a child node should be created. See
- the definition of the PHY node below for an example of how to define
- a PHY.
-
- Required properties:
- - reg : Offset and length of the register set for the device
- - device_type : Should be "mdio"
- - compatible : Should define the compatible device type for the
- mdio. Currently, this is most likely to be "gianfar"
-
- Example:
-
- mdio@24520 {
- reg = <24520 20>;
- device_type = "mdio";
- compatible = "gianfar";
-
- ethernet-phy@0 {
- ......
- };
- };
-
-
- b) Gianfar-compatible ethernet nodes
-
- Required properties:
-
- - device_type : Should be "network"
- - model : Model of the device. Can be "TSEC", "eTSEC", or "FEC"
- - compatible : Should be "gianfar"
- - reg : Offset and length of the register set for the device
- - mac-address : List of bytes representing the ethernet address of
- this controller
- - 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.
- - phy-handle : The phandle for the PHY connected to this ethernet
- controller.
-
- Example:
-
- ethernet@24000 {
- #size-cells = <0>;
- device_type = "network";
- model = "TSEC";
- compatible = "gianfar";
- reg = <24000 1000>;
- mac-address = [ 00 E0 0C 00 73 00 ];
- interrupts = <d 3 e 3 12 3>;

+ device width times the number of interleaved chips.
+ - device-width : (optional) Width of a single flash chip. If
+ omitted, assumed to be equal to 'bank-width'.
+ - #address-cells, #size-cells : Must be present if the flash has
+ sub-nodes representing partitions (see below). In this case
+ both #address-cells and #size-cells must be equal to 1.
+
+ For JEDEC compatible devices, the following additional properties
+ are defined:
+
+ - vendor-id : Contains the flash chip's vendor id (1 byte).
+ - device-id : Contains the flash chip's device id (1 byte).
+
+ In addition to the information on the flash bank itself, the
+ device tree may optionally contain additional information
+ describing partitions of the flash address space. This can be
+ used on platforms which have strong conventions about which
+ portions of the flash are used for what purposes, but which don't
+ use an on-flash partition table such as RedBoot.
+
+ Each partition is represented as a sub-node of the flash device.
+ Each node's name represents the name of the corresponding
+ partition of the flash device.
+
+ Flash partitions
+ - reg : The partition's offset and size within the flash bank.
+ - label : (optional) The label / name for this flash partition.
+ If omitted, the label is taken from the node name (excluding
+ the unit address).
+ - read-only : (optional) This parameter, if present, is a hint to
+ Linux that this flash partition should only be mounted
+ read-only. This is usually used for flash partitions
+ containing early-boot firmware images or data which should not
+ be clobbered.
+
+ Example:
+
+ flash@ff000000 {
+ compatible = "amd,am29lv128ml", "cfi-flash";
+ reg = <ff000000 01000000>;
+ bank-width = <4>;
+ device-width = <1>;
+ #address-cells = <1>;
+ #size-cells = <1>;
+ fs@0 {
+ label = "fs";
+ reg = <0 f80000>;
+ };
+ firmware@f80000 {
+ label ="firmware";
+ reg = <f80000 80000>;
+ read-only;
+ };
+ };

+ d) 4xx/Axon EMAC ethernet nodes
+
+ The EMAC ethernet controller in IBM and AMCC 4xx chips, and also

+ };
- Required properties :
+ ii) McMAL node
+
+ Required properties:
+ - device_type : "dma-controller"
+ - compatible : compatible list, containing 2 entries, first is
+ "ibm,mcmal-CHIP" where CHIP is the host ASIC (like

+ For Axon, "ibm,mcmal-axon","ibm,mcmal2"
+ - interrupts : <interrupt mapping for the MAL interrupts sources:
+ 5 sources: tx_eob, rx_eob, serr, txde, rxde>.
+ For Axon: This is _different_ from the current

+
+ e) Xilinx IP cores
+
+ The Xilinx EDK toolchain ships with a set of IP cores (devices) for use
+ in Xilinx Spartan and Virtex FPGAs. The devices cover the whole range
+ of standard device types (network, serial, etc.) and miscellanious
+ devices (gpio, LCD, spi, etc). Also, since these devices are
+ implemented within the fpga fabric every instance of the device can be
+ synthesised with different options that change the behaviour.
+
+ Each IP-core has a set of parameters which the FPGA designer can use to
+ control how the core is synthesized. Historically, the EDK tool would
+ extract the device parameters relevant to device drivers and copy them
+ into an 'xparameters.h' in the form of #define symbols. This tells the
+ device drivers how the IP cores are configured, but it requres the kernel
+ to be recompiled every time the FPGA bitstream is resynthesized.
+
+ The new approach is to export the parameters into the device tree and
+ generate a new device tree each time the FPGA bitstream changes. The
+ parameters which used to be exported as #defines will now become
+ properties of the device node. In general, device nodes for IP-cores
+ will take the following form:
+
+ (name): (generic-name)@(base-address) {
+ compatible = "xlnx,(ip-core-name)-(HW_VER)"
+ [, (list of compatible devices), ...];
+ reg = <(baseaddr) (size)>;
+ interrupt-parent = <&interrupt-controller-phandle>;
+ interrupts = < ... >;
+ xlnx,(parameter1) = "(string-value)";
+ xlnx,(parameter2) = <(int-value)>;
+ };
- - device_type : Should be "i2c"
- - reg : Offset and length of the register set for the device
+ (generic-name): an open firmware-style name that describes the
+ generic class of device. Preferably, this is one word, such
+ as 'serial' or 'ethernet'.
+ (ip-core-name): the name of the ip block (given after the BEGIN
+ directive in system.mhs). Should be in lowercase
+ and all underscores '_' converted to dashes '-'.
+ (name): is derived from the "PARAMETER INSTANCE" value.
+ (parameter#): C_* parameters from system.mhs. The C_ prefix is
+ dropped from the parameter name, the name is converted
+ to lowercase and all underscore '_' characters are
+ converted to dashes '-'.
+ (baseaddr): the baseaddr parameter value (often named C_BASEADDR).
+ (HW_VER): from the HW_VER parameter.
+ (size): the address range size (often C_HIGHADDR - C_BASEADDR + 1).
+
+ Typically, the compatible list will include the exact IP core version
+ followed by an older IP core version which implements the same
+ interface or any other device with the same interface.
+
+ 'reg', 'interrupt-parent' and 'interrupts' are all optional properties.
+
+ For example, the following block from system.mhs:
+
+ BEGIN opb_uartlite
+ PARAMETER INSTANCE = opb_uartlite_0
+ PARAMETER HW_VER = 1.00.b
+ PARAMETER C_BAUDRATE = 115200
+ PARAMETER C_DATA_BITS = 8
+ PARAMETER C_ODD_PARITY = 0
+ PARAMETER C_USE_PARITY = 0
+ PARAMETER C_CLK_FREQ = 50000000
+ PARAMETER C_BASEADDR = 0xEC100000
+ PARAMETER C_HIGHADDR = 0xEC10FFFF
+ BUS_INTERFACE SOPB = opb_7
+ PORT OPB_Clk = CLK_50MHz
+ PORT Interrupt = opb_uartlite_0_Interrupt
+ PORT RX = opb_uartlite_0_RX
+ PORT TX = opb_uartlite_0_TX
+ PORT OPB_Rst = sys_bus_reset_0
+ END
+
+ becomes the following device tree node:
+
+ opb_uartlite_0: serial@ec100000 {
+ device_type = "serial";
+ compatible = "xlnx,opb-uartlite-1.00.b";
+ reg = <ec100000 10000>;
+ interrupt-parent = <&opb_intc_0>;
+ interrupts = <1 0>; // got this from the opb_intc parameters
+ current-speed = <d#115200>; // standard serial device prop
+ clock-frequency = <d#50000000>; // standard serial device prop
+ xlnx,data-bits = <8>;
+ xlnx,odd-parity = <0>;
+ xlnx,use-parity = <0>;
+ };
- Recommended properties :
+ Some IP cores actually implement 2 or more logical devices. In
+ this case, the device should still describe the whole IP core with
+ a single node and add a child node for each logical device. The
+ ranges property can be used to translate from parent IP-core to the
+ registers of each device. In addition, the parent node should be
+ compatible with the bus type 'xlnx,compound', and should contain
+ #address-cells and #size-cells, as with any other bus. (Note: this
+ makes the assumption that both logical devices have the same bus
+ binding. If this is not true, then separate nodes should be used
+ for each logical device). The 'cell-index' property can be used to
+ enumerate logical devices within an IP core. For example, the
+ following is the system.mhs entry for the dual ps2 controller found
+ on the ml403 reference design.
+
+ BEGIN opb_ps2_dual_ref
+ PARAMETER INSTANCE = opb_ps2_dual_ref_0
+ PARAMETER HW_VER = 1.00.a
+ PARAMETER C_BASEADDR = 0xA9000000
+ PARAMETER C_HIGHADDR = 0xA9001FFF
+ BUS_INTERFACE SOPB = opb_v20_0
+ PORT Sys_Intr1 = ps2_1_intr
+ PORT Sys_Intr2 = ps2_2_intr
+ PORT Clkin1 = ps2_clk_rx_1
+ PORT Clkin2 = ps2_clk_rx_2
+ PORT Clkpd1 = ps2_clk_tx_1
+ PORT Clkpd2 = ps2_clk_tx_2
+ PORT Rx1 = ps2_d_rx_1
+ PORT Rx2 = ps2_d_rx_2
+ PORT Txpd1 = ps2_d_tx_1
+ PORT Txpd2 = ps2_d_tx_2
+ END
+
+ It would result in the following device tree nodes:
+
+ opb_ps2_dual_ref_0: opb-ps2-dual-ref@a9000000 {
+ #address-cells = <1>;
+ #size-cells = <1>;
+ compatible = "xlnx,compound";
+ ranges = <0 a9000000 2000>;
+ // If this device had extra parameters, then they would
+ // go here.
+ ps2@0 {
+ compatible = "xlnx,opb-ps2-dual-ref-1.00.a";
+ reg = <0 40>;
+ interrupt-parent = <&opb_intc_0>;
+ interrupts = <3 0>;
+ cell-index = <0>;
+ };
+ ps2@1000 {
+ compatible = "xlnx,opb-ps2-dual-ref-1.00.a";
+ reg = <1000 40>;
+ interrupt-parent = <&opb_intc_0>;
+ interrupts = <3 0>;
+ cell-index = <0>;
+ };
+ };
- - compatible : Should be "fsl-i2c" for parts compatible with
- Freescale I2C specifications.
- - 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

- a digital filter sampling rate register
- - fsl5200-clocking : boolean; if defined, indicated that this device
- uses the FSL 5200 clocking mechanism.
+ Also, the system.mhs file defines bus attachments from the processor
+ to the devices. The device tree structure should reflect the bus
+ attachments. Again an example; this system.mhs fragment:
+
+ BEGIN ppc405_virtex4
+ PARAMETER INSTANCE = ppc405_0
+ PARAMETER HW_VER = 1.01.a
+ BUS_INTERFACE DPLB = plb_v34_0

+
+ Gives this device tree (some properties removed for clarity):

+ #address-cells = <1>;
+ #size-cells = <1>;
+ compatible = "xlnx,plb-v34-1.02.a";
+ device_type = "ibm,plb";

- More devices will be defined as this spec matures.
+ v) Xilinx hwicap
+ Xilinx hwicap devices provide access to the configuration logic
+ of the FPGA through the Internal Configuration Access Port
+ (ICAP). The ICAP enables partial reconfiguration of the FPGA,
+ readback of the configuration information, and some control over
+ 'warm boots' of the FPGA fabric.
-Appendix A - Sample SOC node for MPC8540
-========================================
+ Required properties:
+ - xlnx,family : The family of the FPGA, necessary since the
+ capabilities of the underlying ICAP hardware
+ differ between different families. May be
+ 'virtex2p', 'virtex4', or 'virtex5'.
-Note that the #address-cells and #size-cells for the SoC node
-in this example have been explicitly listed; these are likely
-not necessary as they are usually the same as the root node.

- device_type = "mdio";
- compatible = "gianfar";
+ Required properties:
+ - clock-frequency : Frequency of the clock input
+ - reg-offset : A value of 3 is required
+ - reg-shift : A value of 2 is required
+
+ f) USB EHCI controllers
- ethernet-phy@0 {
- linux,phandle = <2452000>
- interrupt-parent = <40000>;
- interrupts = <35 1>;
+ Required properties:
+ - compatible : should be "usb-ehci".
+ - reg : should contain at least address and length of the standard EHCI
+ register set for the device. Optional platform-dependent registers
+ (debug-port or other) can be also specified here, but only after
+ definition of standard EHCI registers.
+ - interrupts : one EHCI interrupt should be described here.
+ If device registers are implemented in big endian mode, the device
+ node should have "big-endian-regs" property.
+ If controller implementation operates with big endian descriptors,
+ "big-endian-desc" property should be specified.
+ If both big endian registers and descriptors are used by the controller
+ implementation, "big-endian" property can be specified instead of having
+ both "big-endian-regs" and "big-endian-desc".
+
+ Example (Sequoia 440EPx):
+ ehci@e0000300 {
+ compatible = "ibm,usb-ehci-440epx", "usb-ehci";
+ interrupt-parent = <&UIC0>;

+ Currently defined compatibles:
+ - virtual,gpio-mdio
+
+ MDC and MDIO lines connected to GPIO controllers are listed in the
+ gpios property as described in section VIII.1 in the following order:
+
+ MDC, MDIO.
+
+ Example:
+
+ mdio {
+ compatible = "virtual,mdio-gpio";
+ #address-cells = <1>;
+ #size-cells = <0>;
+ gpios = <&qe_pio_a 11
+ &qe_pio_c 6>;
+ };
+
+ h) SPI (Serial Peripheral Interface) busses
+
+ SPI busses can be described with a node for the SPI master device
+ and a set of child nodes for each SPI slave on the bus. For this
+ discussion, it is assumed that the system's SPI controller is in
+ SPI master mode. This binding does not describe SPI controllers
+ in slave mode.
+
+ The SPI master node requires the following properties:
+ - #address-cells - number of cells required to define a chip select
+ address on the SPI bus.
+ - #size-cells - should be zero.
+ - compatible - name of SPI bus controller following generic names
+ recommended practice.
+ No other properties are required in the SPI bus node. It is assumed
+ that a driver for an SPI bus device will understand that it is an SPI bus.
+ However, the binding does not attempt to define the specific method for
+ assigning chip select numbers. Since SPI chip select configuration is
+ flexible and non-standardized, it is left out of this binding with the
+ assumption that board specific platform code will be used to manage
+ chip selects. Individual drivers can define additional properties to
+ support describing the chip select layout.
+
+ SPI slave nodes must be children of the SPI master node and can
+ contain the following properties.
+ - reg - (required) chip select address of device.
+ - compatible - (required) name of SPI device following generic names
+ recommended practice
+ - spi-max-frequency - (required) Maximum SPI clocking speed of device in Hz
+ - spi-cpol - (optional) Empty property indicating device requires
+ inverse clock polarity (CPOL) mode
+ - spi-cpha - (optional) Empty property indicating device requires
+ shifted clock phase (CPHA) mode
+ - spi-cs-high - (optional) Empty property indicating device requires
+ chip select active high
+
+ SPI example for an MPC5200 SPI bus:
+ spi@f00 {
+ #address-cells = <1>;
+ #size-cells = <0>;
+ compatible = "fsl,mpc5200b-spi","fsl,mpc5200-spi";

+VII - Marvell Discovery mv64[345]6x System Controller chips
+===========================================================
- };
+The Marvell mv64[345]60 series of system controller chips contain
+many of the peripherals needed to implement a complete computer
+system. In this section, we define device tree nodes to describe
+the system controller chip itself and each of the peripherals
+which it contains. Compatible string values for each node are
+prefixed with the string "marvell,", for Marvell Technology Group Ltd.
+
+1) The /system-controller node
+
+ This node is used to represent the system-controller and must be
+ present when the system uses a system controller chip. The top-level
+ system-controller node contains information that is global to all
+ devices within the system controller chip. The node name begins
+ with "system-controller" followed by the unit address, which is
+ the base address of the memory-mapped register set for the system
+ controller chip.
+
+ Required properties:
+
+ - ranges : Describes the translation of system controller addresses
+ for memory mapped registers.
+ - clock-frequency: Contains the main clock frequency for the system
+ controller chip.
+ - reg : This property defines the address and size of the
+ memory-mapped registers contained within the system controller
+ chip. The address specified in the "reg" property should match
+ the unit address of the system-controller node.
+ - #address-cells : Address representation for system controller
+ devices. This field represents the number of cells needed to
+ represent the address of the memory-mapped registers of devices
+ within the system controller chip.
+ - #size-cells : Size representation for for the memory-mapped
+ registers within the system controller chip.
+ - #interrupt-cells : Defines the width of cells used to represent
+ interrupts.
+
+ Optional properties:
+
+ - model : The specific model of the system controller chip. Such
+ as, "mv64360", "mv64460", or "mv64560".
+ - compatible : A string identifying the compatibility identifiers
+ of the system controller chip.
+
+ The system-controller node contains child nodes for each system
+ controller device that the platform uses. Nodes should not be created
+ for devices which exist on the system controller chip but are not used
+
+ Example Marvell Discovery mv64360 system-controller node:
+
+ system-controller@f1000000 { /* Marvell Discovery mv64360 */
+ #address-cells = <1>;
+ #size-cells = <1>;
+ model = "mv64360"; /* Default */
+ compatible = "marvell,mv64360";
+ clock-frequency = <133333333>;
+ reg = <0xf1000000 0x10000>;
+ virtual-reg = <0xf1000000>;
+ ranges = <0x88000000 0x88000000 0x1000000 /* PCI 0 I/O Space */
+ 0x80000000 0x80000000 0x8000000 /* PCI 0 MEM Space */
+ 0xa0000000 0xa0000000 0x4000000 /* User FLASH */
+ 0x00000000 0xf1000000 0x0010000 /* Bridge's regs */

+
+ a) Marvell Discovery MDIO bus

+
+ b) Marvell Discovery ethernet controller
+
+ The Discover ethernet controller is described with two levels
+ of nodes. The first level describes an ethernet silicon block
+ and the second level describes up to 3 ethernet nodes within
+ that block. The reason for the multiple levels is that the
+ registers for the node are interleaved within a single set
+ of registers. The "ethernet-block" level describes the
+ shared register set, and the "ethernet" nodes describe ethernet
+ port-specific properties.

+
+
+VIII - Specifying interrupt information for devices
+===================================================
+
+The device tree represents the busses and devices of a hardware
+system in a form similar to the physical bus topology of the
+hardware.
+
+In addition, a logical 'interrupt tree' exists which represents the
+hierarchy and routing of interrupts in the hardware.
+
+The interrupt tree model is fully described in the
+document "Open Firmware Recommended Practice: Interrupt
+Mapping Version 0.9". The document is available at:
+<http://playground.sun.com/1275/practice>.
+
+1) interrupts property
+----------------------
+
+Devices that generate interrupts to a single interrupt controller
+should use the conventional OF representation described in the
+OF interrupt mapping documentation.
+
+Each device which generates interrupts must have an 'interrupt'
+property. The interrupt property value is an arbitrary number of
+of 'interrupt specifier' values which describe the interrupt or
+interrupts for the device.
+
+The encoding of an interrupt specifier is determined by the
+interrupt domain in which the device is located in the
+interrupt tree. The root of an interrupt domain specifies in
+its #interrupt-cells property the number of 32-bit cells
+required to encode an interrupt specifier. See the OF interrupt
+mapping documentation for a detailed description of domains.
+
+For example, the binding for the OpenPIC interrupt controller
+specifies an #interrupt-cells value of 2 to encode the interrupt
+number and level/sense information. All interrupt children in an
+OpenPIC interrupt domain use 2 cells per interrupt in their interrupts
+property.
+
+The PCI bus binding specifies a #interrupt-cell value of 1 to encode
+which interrupt pin (INTA,INTB,INTC,INTD) is used.
+
+2) interrupt-parent property
+----------------------------
+
+The interrupt-parent property is specified to define an explicit
+link between a device node and its interrupt parent in
+the interrupt tree. The value of interrupt-parent is the
+phandle of the parent node.
+
+If the interrupt-parent property is not defined for a node, it's
+interrupt parent is assumed to be an ancestor in the node's
+_device tree_ hierarchy.
+
+3) OpenPIC Interrupt Controllers
+--------------------------------
+
+OpenPIC interrupt controllers require 2 cells to encode
+interrupt information. The first cell defines the interrupt
+number. The second cell defines the sense and level
+information.
+
+Sense and level information should be encoded as follows:
+
+ 0 = low to high edge sensitive type enabled
+ 1 = active low level sensitive type enabled
+ 2 = active high level sensitive type enabled
+ 3 = high to low edge sensitive type enabled
+
+4) ISA Interrupt Controllers
+----------------------------
+
+ISA PIC interrupt controllers require 2 cells to encode
+interrupt information. The first cell defines the interrupt
+number. The second cell defines the sense and level
+information.
+
+ISA PIC interrupt controllers should adhere to the ISA PIC
+encodings listed below:
+
+ 0 = active low level sensitive type enabled
+ 1 = active high level sensitive type enabled
+ 2 = high to low edge sensitive type enabled
+ 3 = low to high edge sensitive type enabled
+
+IX - Specifying GPIO information for devices
+============================================
+
+1) gpios property
+-----------------
+
+Nodes that makes use of GPIOs should define them using `gpios' property,
+format of which is: <&gpio-controller1-phandle gpio1-specifier
+ &gpio-controller2-phandle gpio2-specifier
+ 0 /* holes are permitted, means no GPIO 3 */
+ &gpio-controller4-phandle gpio4-specifier
+ ...>;
+
+Note that gpio-specifier length is controller dependent.
+
+gpio-specifier may encode: bank, pin position inside the bank,
+whether pin is open-drain and whether pin is logically inverted.
+
+Example of the node using GPIOs:
+
+ node {
+ gpios = <&qe_pio_e 18 0>;
+ };
+
+In this example gpio-specifier is "18 0" and encodes GPIO pin number,
+and empty GPIO flags as accepted by the "qe_pio_e" gpio-controller.
+
+2) gpio-controller nodes
+------------------------
+
+Every GPIO controller node must have #gpio-cells property defined,
+this information will be used to translate gpio-specifiers.
+
+Example of two SOC GPIO banks defined as gpio-controller nodes:
+
+ qe_pio_a: gpio-controller@1400 {
+ #gpio-cells = <2>;
+ compatible = "fsl,qe-pario-bank-a", "fsl,qe-pario-bank";
+ reg = <0x1400 0x18>;
+ gpio-controller;
+ };
+
+ qe_pio_e: gpio-controller@1460 {
+ #gpio-cells = <2>;
+ compatible = "fsl,qe-pario-bank-e", "fsl,qe-pario-bank";
+ reg = <0x1460 0x18>;
+ gpio-controller;
+ };
+
+X - Specifying Device Power Management Information (sleep property)
+===================================================================
+
+Devices on SOCs often have mechanisms for placing devices into low-power
+states that are decoupled from the devices' own register blocks. Sometimes,
+this information is more complicated than a cell-index property can
+reasonably describe. Thus, each device controlled in such a manner
+may contain a "sleep" property which describes these connections.
+
+The sleep property consists of one or more sleep resources, each of
+which consists of a phandle to a sleep controller, followed by a
+controller-specific sleep specifier of zero or more cells.
+
+The semantics of what type of low power modes are possible are defined
+by the sleep controller. Some examples of the types of low power modes
+that may be supported are:
+
+ - Dynamic: The device may be disabled or enabled at any time.
+ - System Suspend: The device may request to be disabled or remain
+ awake during system suspend, but will not be disabled until then.
+ - Permanent: The device is disabled permanently (until the next hard
+ reset).
+
+Some devices may share a clock domain with each other, such that they should
+only be suspended when none of the devices are in use. Where reasonable,
+such nodes should be placed on a virtual bus, where the bus has the sleep
+property. If the clock domain is shared among devices that cannot be
+reasonably grouped in this manner, then create a virtual sleep controller
+(similar to an interrupt nexus, except that defining a standardized
+sleep-map should wait until its necessity is demonstrated).
