Subject: [PATCH v3 02/10] dt-bindings: mailbox: apple: Add DockChannel mailbox
Date: Fri, 18 Sep 2026 23:28:32 +1000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260918-apple-mtp-keyboard-final-v3-2-e356464e454b@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260918-apple-mtp-keyboard-final-v3-0-e356464e454b@gmail.com>
From: Michael Reeves <michael.reeves077@gmail.com>
DockChannel is a FIFO and interrupt block used by Apple coprocessors
to exchange byte-stream traffic with the AP.
Describe it as a mailbox provider so HID and future serial clients can
use the common mailbox API.
