=================
ARM CPUs bindings
=================

The device tree allows to describe the layout of CPUs in a system through
the "cpus" node, which in turn contains a number of subnodes (ie "cpu")
defining properties for every cpu.

Bindings for CPU nodes follow the ePAPR v1.1 standard, available from:

https://www.power.org/documentation/epapr-version-1-1/

with updates for 32-bit and 64-bit ARM systems provided in this document.

================================
Convention used in this document
================================

This document follows the conventions described in the ePAPR v1.1, with
the addition:

- square brackets define bitfields, eg reg[7:0] value of the bitfield in
  the reg property contained in bits 7 down to 0

=====================================
cpus and cpu node bindings definition
=====================================

The ARM architecture, in accordance with the ePAPR, requires the cpus and cpu
nodes to be present and contain the properties described below.

- cpus node

	Description: Container of cpu nodes

	The node name must be "cpus".

	A cpus node must define the following properties:

	- #address-cells
		Usage: required
		Value type: <u32>

		Definition depends on ARM architecture version and
		configuration:

			# On uniprocessor ARM architectures previous to v7
			  value must be 1, to enable a simple enumeration
			  scheme for processors that do not have a HW CPU
			  identification register.
			# On 32-bit ARM 11 MPcore, ARM v7 or later systems
			  value must be 1, that corresponds to CPUID/MPIDR
			  registers sizes.
			# On ARM v8 64-bit systems value should be set to 2,
			  that corresponds to the MPIDR_EL1 register size.
			  If MPIDR_EL1[63:32] value is equal to 0 on all CPUs
			  in the system, #address-cells can be set to 1, since
			  MPIDR_EL1[63:32] bits are not used for CPUs
			  identification.
	- #size-cells
		Usage: required
		Value type: <u32>
		Definition: must be set to 0

- cpu node

	Description: Describes a CPU in an ARM based system

	PROPERTIES

	- device_type
		Usage: required
		Value type: <string>
		Definition: must be "cpu"
	- reg
		Usage and definition depend on ARM architecture version and
		configuration:

			# On uniprocessor ARM architectures previous to v7
			  this property is required and must be set to 0.

			# On ARM 11 MPcore based systems this property is
			  required and matches the CPUID[11:0] register bits.

			  Bits [11:0] in the reg cell must be set to
			  bits [11:0] in CPU ID register.

			  All other bits in the reg cell must be set to 0.

			# On 32-bit ARM v7 or later systems this property is
			  required and matches the CPU MPIDR[23:0] register
			  bits.

			  Bits [23:0] in the reg cell must be set to
			  bits [23:0] in MPIDR.

			  All other bits in the reg cell must be set to 0.

			# On ARM v8 64-bit systems this property is required
			  and matches the MPIDR_EL1 register affinity bits.

			  * If cpus node's #address-cells property is set to 2

			    The first reg cell bits [7:0] must be set to
			    bits [39:32] of MPIDR_EL1.

			    The second reg cell bits [23:0] must be set to
			    bits [23:0] of MPIDR_EL1.

			  * If cpus node's #address-cells property is set to 1

			    The reg cell bits [23:0] must be set to bits [23:0]
			    of MPIDR_EL1.

			  All other bits in the reg cells must be set to 0.
