1* Generic PM domains
2
3System on chip designs are often divided into multiple PM domains that can be
4used for power gating of selected IP blocks for power saving by reduced leakage
5current.
6
7This device tree binding can be used to bind PM domain consumer devices with
8their PM domains provided by PM domain providers. A PM domain provider can be
9represented by any node in the device tree and can provide one or more PM
10domains. A consumer node can refer to the provider by a phandle and a set of
11phandle arguments (so called PM domain specifiers) of length specified by the
12#power-domain-cells property in the PM domain provider node.
13
14==PM domain providers==
15
16Required properties:
17 - #power-domain-cells : Number of cells in a PM domain specifier;
18   Typically 0 for nodes representing a single PM domain and 1 for nodes
19   providing multiple PM domains (e.g. power controllers), but can be any value
20   as specified by device tree binding documentation of particular provider.
21
22Optional properties:
23 - power-domains : A phandle and PM domain specifier as defined by bindings of
24                   the power controller specified by phandle.
25   Some power domains might be powered from another power domain (or have
26   other hardware specific dependencies). For representing such dependency
27   a standard PM domain consumer binding is used. When provided, all domains
28   created by the given provider should be subdomains of the domain
29   specified by this binding. More details about power domain specifier are
30   available in the next section.
31
32- domain-idle-states : A phandle of an idle-state that shall be soaked into a
33                generic domain power state. The idle state definitions are
34                compatible with domain-idle-state specified in [1]. phandles
35                that are not compatible with domain-idle-state will be
36                ignored.
37  The domain-idle-state property reflects the idle state of this PM domain and
38  not the idle states of the devices or sub-domains in the PM domain. Devices
39  and sub-domains have their own idle-states independent of the parent
40  domain's idle states. In the absence of this property, the domain would be
41  considered as capable of being powered-on or powered-off.
42
43- operating-points-v2 : Phandles to the OPP tables of power domains provided by
44  a power domain provider. If the provider provides a single power domain only
45  or all the power domains provided by the provider have identical OPP tables,
46  then this shall contain a single phandle. Refer to ../opp/opp.txt for more
47  information.
48
49Example:
50
51	power: power-controller@12340000 {
52		compatible = "foo,power-controller";
53		reg = <0x12340000 0x1000>;
54		#power-domain-cells = <1>;
55	};
56
57The node above defines a power controller that is a PM domain provider and
58expects one cell as its phandle argument.
59
60Example 2:
61
62	parent: power-controller@12340000 {
63		compatible = "foo,power-controller";
64		reg = <0x12340000 0x1000>;
65		#power-domain-cells = <1>;
66	};
67
68	child: power-controller@12341000 {
69		compatible = "foo,power-controller";
70		reg = <0x12341000 0x1000>;
71		power-domains = <&parent 0>;
72		#power-domain-cells = <1>;
73	};
74
75The nodes above define two power controllers: 'parent' and 'child'.
76Domains created by the 'child' power controller are subdomains of '0' power
77domain provided by the 'parent' power controller.
78
79Example 3:
80	parent: power-controller@12340000 {
81		compatible = "foo,power-controller";
82		reg = <0x12340000 0x1000>;
83		#power-domain-cells = <0>;
84		domain-idle-states = <&DOMAIN_RET>, <&DOMAIN_PWR_DN>;
85	};
86
87	child: power-controller@12341000 {
88		compatible = "foo,power-controller";
89		reg = <0x12341000 0x1000>;
90		power-domains = <&parent>;
91		#power-domain-cells = <0>;
92		domain-idle-states = <&DOMAIN_PWR_DN>;
93	};
94
95	DOMAIN_RET: state@0 {
96		compatible = "domain-idle-state";
97		reg = <0x0>;
98		entry-latency-us = <1000>;
99		exit-latency-us = <2000>;
100		min-residency-us = <10000>;
101	};
102
103	DOMAIN_PWR_DN: state@1 {
104		compatible = "domain-idle-state";
105		reg = <0x1>;
106		entry-latency-us = <5000>;
107		exit-latency-us = <8000>;
108		min-residency-us = <7000>;
109	};
110
111==PM domain consumers==
112
113Required properties:
114 - power-domains : A list of PM domain specifiers, as defined by bindings of
115		the power controller that is the PM domain provider.
116
117Example:
118
119	leaky-device@12350000 {
120		compatible = "foo,i-leak-current";
121		reg = <0x12350000 0x1000>;
122		power-domains = <&power 0>;
123	};
124
125	leaky-device@12351000 {
126		compatible = "foo,i-leak-current";
127		reg = <0x12351000 0x1000>;
128		power-domains = <&power 0>, <&power 1> ;
129	};
130
131The first example above defines a typical PM domain consumer device, which is
132located inside a PM domain with index 0 of a power controller represented by a
133node with the label "power".
134In the second example the consumer device are partitioned across two PM domains,
135the first with index 0 and the second with index 1, of a power controller that
136is represented by a node with the label "power.
137
138Optional properties:
139- required-opps: This contains phandle to an OPP node in another device's OPP
140  table. It may contain an array of phandles, where each phandle points to an
141  OPP of a different device. It should not contain multiple phandles to the OPP
142  nodes in the same OPP table. This specifies the minimum required OPP of the
143  device(s), whose OPP's phandle is present in this property, for the
144  functioning of the current device at the current OPP (where this property is
145  present).
146
147Example:
148- OPP table for domain provider that provides two domains.

150	domain0_opp_table: opp-table0 {
151		compatible = "operating-points-v2";

156		};
157		domain0_opp_1: opp-1100000000 {
158			opp-hz = /bits/ 64 <1100000000>;
159			opp-microvolt = <1000000 980000 1010000>;
160		};
161	};
162
163	domain1_opp_table: opp-table1 {
164		compatible = "operating-points-v2";
165
166		domain1_opp_0: opp-1200000000 {
167			opp-hz = /bits/ 64 <1200000000>;
168			opp-microvolt = <975000 970000 985000>;
169		};
170		domain1_opp_1: opp-1300000000 {
171			opp-hz = /bits/ 64 <1300000000>;
172			opp-microvolt = <1000000 980000 1010000>;
