Subject: [PATCH v2 1/7] dt-bindings: mailbox: add Allwinner sun55i msgbox schema
Date: Sat, 26 Sep 2026 19:20:10 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260927002021.797069-2-tcmichals@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260927002021.797069-1-tcmichals@gmail.com>
Add Device Tree binding schema for the Allwinner 4-port hardware
Message Box controller found on sun55i (A523, A527, T527) and
sun60i (A733) SoCs.
The message box connects the ARM Cortex-A55 host cluster to the
HiFi4 Audio DSP, Power Management Unit (CPUS), and XuanTie RISC-V
co-processor across 12 logical channels with 8-entry hardware FIFOs.

+description:
+ The hardware message box on sun55i (A523, A527, T527) and sun60i (A733)
+ SoCs is a 4-port multi-processor mailbox controller connecting the ARM
+ Cortex-A55 host cluster, HiFi4 Audio DSP, Power Management Unit (CPUS),
+ and XuanTie RISC-V co-processor.
+
+ It features independent 256-byte register banks for each processor port,
+ 12 logical channels on the host (4 per remote processor), and 8-entry
+ hardware FIFOs with level interrupts.
