+MMIO bitfield-based multiplexer controller bindings
+
+Define a syscon bitfield to be used to control a multiplexer. The parent
+device tree node must be a syscon node to provide register access.
+
+Required properties:
+- compatible : "gpio-mux"
+- reg : register base of the register containing the control bitfield
+- bit-mask : bitmask of the control bitfield in the control register
+- bit-shift : bit offset of the control bitfield in the control register
+- #mux-control-cells : <0>
+* Standard mux-controller bindings as decribed in mux-controller.txt
+
+Optional properties:
+- idle-state : if present, the state the mux will have when idle. The
+	       special state MUX_IDLE_AS_IS is the default.
+
+The multiplexer state is defined as the value of the bitfield described
+by the reg, bit-mask, and bit-shift properties, accessed through the parent
+syscon.
+
+Example:
+
+	syscon {
+		compatible = "syscon";
+
+		mux: mux-controller@3 {
+			compatible = "mmio-mux";
+			reg = <0x3>;
+			bit-mask = <0x1>;
+			bit-shift = <5>;

So Pavel (added to Cc:) suggested to merge these into one node for the
video mux, as really we are describing a single hardware entity that
happens to be multiplexing multiple video buses into one:

	syscon {
		compatible = "syscon";

		/* video multiplexer */
		mux: mux-controller@3 {
			compatible = "video-mmio-mux";
			reg = <0x3>;
			bit-mask = <0x1>;
			bit-shift = <5>;
			#mux-control-cells = <0>;
 
			mux-controls = <&mux>;

			ports {
				/* input 0 */
				port@0 {
					reg = <0>;
				};

				/* input 1 */
				port@1 {
					reg = <1>;
				};

				/* output */
				port@2 {
					reg = <2>;
				};
			};
		};
	};

That would not touch on this "general purpose" mmio-mux binding itself,
but would make it necessary to add a separate "video-mmio-mux" and a
"video-gpio-mux" binding that mirror the "mmio-mux" and "gpio-mux"
bindings but add the OF-graph connections.

Also I think in this case the self-referencing mux-controls property
would be superfluous, as the driver binding to this node is expected to
control the mux according to activation of the links described by the
OF-graph bindings.

Two drivers will be needed in a way or another to disconnect the dependency
between the video switch driver and the MUX implementation. Are there ways
to do that cleanly other than having two devices?

And if there are two devices, shouldn't the video switch device be a child
of the MUX device? I think it'd be odd to have it hanging around in a
completely unrelated part of the device tree.

Yes.

Device tree describes hardware, not the driver structure.

I think you you could view the MUX control as a device, too, and that's
separate from the actual video switch.

This isn't really related to the video switch as much as it's got to do with
the MUX framework, so having Peter's opinion here would be very helpful.

Actually, I believe what matters here is hardware. There's some chip,
somewhere, that does the switching, and the device tree should should
basically describe that switch.

We are talking about the device tree bindings, drivers and devices
shouldn't factor into it yet. A video-mmio-mux driver could very well
create a mmio-mux platform device internally, if necessary. Or it could
just use the same library functions that the mmio-mux driver uses,
without creating a second device.

That boils down to whether you consider the connection between mux
controller and mux to be resource usage that should be described via a
phandle reference, like pwms, gpios, clocks, and so on, or whether you
consider it to be control flow in the device tree sense, which should be
described as a parent-child relationship of the nodes. The mux framework
is designed around the former.

We could embrace this and consider a syscon region that contains
multiple mux bitfields as one mux controller that controls multiple
muxes, with a binding similar to, for example, the
reset/ti-syscon-reset.txt bindings:

	syscon {
		compatible = "syscon";

		mux: mux-controller@4 {
			compatible = "mmio-mux";

			/* register, bit shift, bit mask */
			mux-bits = <0x4 19 0x1>, /* 0: CSI0 mux */
				   <0x4 20 0x1>; /* 1: CSI1 mux */
			#mux-control-cells = <1>;
		};
	};

	/* somewhere else */

	csi0-mux {
		compatible = "video-mux";
		mux-controls = <&mux 0>;

		ports {
			/* ... */
		};
	};

	csi1-mux {
		compatible = "video-mux";
		mux-controls = <&mux 1>;

		ports {
			/* ... */
		};
	};

my preference would be CONFIG_MUX_MMIO.

"MMIO register bitfield-controlled Multiplexer"

I'll change those. mux-syscon.c should probably be renamed to
mux-mmio.c, too.

I think I disagree. But I'm not familiar with syscon so I don't know.
IIUC, syscon uses regmap to do mmio and this driver requires syscon
to get at the regmap, and in the end this driver doesn't know anything
about mmio. All it knows is syscon/regmap. If some warped syscon
thing shows up that wraps something other than mmio in its regmap,
this driver wouldn't care about it. And syscon is something that
is also known in the DT world. Given that, I think everything in this
driver should be named syscon and not mmio.

Or?

That is a good point. Right now there is nothing MMIO about the driver
except for the hardware that I want it to handle.

Well, ...

the driver could be extended to do actual MMIO if the syscon is not
found. This would work only if it has exclusive access to its register.

On the other hand, the driver could also be made to match against
    compatible = "bitfield-mux",
for example, and allow handling muxes inside SPI or I2C controlled MFD
devices that provide a syscon regmap, as you describe:

	spi-host {
		mfd-device {
			compatible = "some-spi-regmap-device";

			mux {
				compatible = "bitfield-mux";
			};
		};
	};

My argument against using the name "syscon" in the device tree is that
it is referring to a subsystem in the Linux kernel. Besides the fact
that "syscon" does not clearly describe, at least to me, what sort of
device this mux is. "regmap" also has similar problem in that it refers
to  a Linux subsystem, although it is clearer to me at least, what the
mux is composed of (a mapped register). Personally I still like mmio,
most embedded systems access registers via MMIO, and the name is not
referring to any specific Linux subsystem.

If I'm not mistaken, this point was not about the DT compatible
property, just about the driver name.

I'm also in favor of keeping the "syscon" name out of the device tree as
far as it is still possible, for the same reasons. The i.MX6 muxes are
MMIO register bitfield muxes, but not "syscon muxes".

The corresponding mux in the i2c-mux "sub-sub-system" is named i2c-mux-reg.
It is about "raw" mmio, i.e. w/o syscon and regmap. Just for the record...

I like this as an example consumer of a mmio-mux, but just

I don't think this is a problem, of course assuming that this video-mux
binding will actually come into existence.

This pattern doesn't scale once you have multiple fields @ addr 3. I 
also don't really think a node per register field in DT really scales.

I think the parent should be declared as a mux controller instead. You 
could encode the mux addr and bit position in the mux cells.

The mux binding was largely defined for a single control controling 
multiple muxes. This doesn't really fit that, but I guess this is an 
improvement over a custom syscon phandle.

Thanks, I have been a bit uneasy with the separate per-bitfield mux
controller node, so I'm eager to agree. But thit makes me unsure how to
best represent the information that is spelled out above.

> I think the parent should be declared as a mux controller instead.

The syscon node itself should be the mux controller? Would you expect
the mmio-mux driver bind to the syscon node, or should the mux framework
handle creation of the mux controls in this case (i.e. does the syscon
node get a "mmio-mux" added to its compatible list)?

> You could encode the mux addr and bit position in the mux cells.

What about the bit-mask / bitfield width? Just add a cell for it?

	gpr: syscon {
		compatible = "mmio-mux", "syscon", "simple-mfd";
		#mux-control-cells = <3>;

		video-mux {
			compatible = "video-mux";
			/* register 0x3, bits [6:5] */
			mux-controls = <&gpr 0x3 5 0x3>;

			ports {
				/* ports 0..5 */
			};
		};
	};

Or maybe using MSB and LSB would be better to read?

		video-mux {
			/* register 0x3, bits [6:5] */
			mux-control = <&gpr 0x3 6 5>;

			ports {
				/* ports 0..5 */
			};
		};

What I especially like about the mux-controls property is that would
allow me to use the gpio-mux driver (or any other mux controller)
instead of having to code variants of the video-mux for all possible
control schemes.

Why do you need three values for one register+field? The shift can be
implied from the mask, if the mask is pre-shifted. I.e. specifying a
mask of 0x60 in this case. What I'm I missing?

Yes, when talking about e.g. PWMs or GPIOs, there seem to be little
question that they can sit in their own nodes. I don't get the reluctance
to have MUXes in nodes of their own?

PWMs and GPIOs are controlled from one end and mostly used for something
completely different. Just like MUXes. At least there are many MUXes like
that. Agreed, there are also many MUXes where the MUX is tightly integrated
in some bigger function. But in this case, it appears that there is benefit
in moving the MUX to its own DT node and have the MUX consumer oblivious
of the details of the MUX. Why is that a problem?

Cheers,
peda

As long as we have <= 32-bit hardware registers, that would work.
The question then is if things like
	mux-control = <&gpr 0x04 0x00300000>;
are considered readable/reviewable enough. And what happens when we get
64-bit general purpose registers containing muxes? Also a binding like
this would allow non-contiguous bit masks.
The reason I suggested using bit-shift in the first place was that there
are already other bindings using "bit-shift" or "reg-shift" properties.

Philipp

Using compatibles here doesn't scale either. If we had 30 functions in 
a syscon, we'd have 30 different compatibles. The syscon node should 
have a specific compatible which implies it is a mux controller (as does 
#mux-controll-cells). So I would expect either you add compatibles to 
the mmio-mux driver or you have a specific driver for the syscon that 
in turn registers a mux device. Either way, it doesn't affect the binding.

As Peter said, just a shifted mask should be enough.

But then you need to create mux controllers on demand. I have not
succeeded in doing that while also following the rules of the driver
model. I had severe problems with life-time issues when I tried.
I would like to see code before embarking on this path, and I'm
apparently not the one writing it...

So, either you meant that, or that the parent node should somehow
specify the possible mux controllers up front so that they can be
pre-created and ready when the consumers request them. But if you
do that, you can just refer to them by some enumeration from the
mux consumers instead of by some convoluted reg+field notation.

Ok, thinking some more about this. Sorry for spamming and replying to
self...

How about:

 	syscon {
 		compatible = "syscon", "simple-mfd";

		mux: mux-controllers {
			compatible = "mmio-mux";
	 		#mux-control-cells = <1>;

			/* three mux controllers, one at reg 3 bits 0:2,
			 * one at reg 3 bits 5:6 and one at reg 7 bit 3.
			 */
			mux-reg-masks = <0x3 0x07>, <0x3 0x60>, <0x7 0x08>;
			idle-state = <7>, <MUX_IDLE_AS_IS>, <0>;
		};

 
 		video-mux {
 			compatible = "video-mux";
 			mux-controls = <&mux 1>; /* i.e. reg 3 bits 5:6 */
 
 			ports {
 				/* ports 0..5 */
 			};
 		};
 	};

Optionally using some 64-bit safe 3-value encoding of the register fields
in the mux-reg-masks binding...

I would prefer this to putting the registers and bit masks into the
phandle cells. The i.MX6Q/D GPR muxes could look like this:

	gpr: iomuxc-gpr@020e0000 {
		compatible = "fsl,imx6q-iomuxc-gpr", "syscon";
		reg = <0x020e0000 0x38>;

		mux: mux-controllers {
			compatible = "mmio-mux";
			#mux-control-cells = <1>;

			/* This list is not complete */
			mux-reg-masks = <0x04 0x00080000>, /* MIPI_IPU1_MUX */
					<0x04 0x00100000>, /* MIPI_IPU2_MUX */
					<0x0c 0x0000000c>, /* HDMI_MUX_CTL */
					<0x0c 0x000000c0>, /* LVDS0_MUX_CTL */
					<0x0c 0x0000030c>, /* LVDS1_MUX_CTL */
					<0x28 0x00000003>, /* DCIC1_MUX_CTL */
					<0x28 0x0000000c>; /* DCIC2_MUX_CTL */
		};

		ipu1_csi0_mux {
			compatible = "video-mux";
			mux-controls = <&mux 0>;
			/* ... */
		};

		ipu2_csi1_mux {
			compatible = "video-mux";
			mux-controls = <&mux 1>;
			/* ... */
		};
	};

and for i.MX6DL/S:

	gpr: iomuxc-gpr@20e0000 {
		compatible = "fsl,imx6q-iomuxc-gpr", "syscon";
		reg = <0x020e0000 0x38>;

		mux: mux-controllers {
			compatible = "mmio-mux";
			#mux-control-cells = <1>;

			mux-reg-masks = <0x34 0x00000007>, /* IPU_CSI0_MUX */
					<0x34 0x00000038>, /* IPU_CSI1_MUX */
					<0x0c 0x0000000c>, /* HDMI_MUX_CTL */
					<0x0c 0x000000c0>, /* LVDS0_MUX_CTL */
					<0x0c 0x0000030c>, /* LVDS1_MUX_CTL */
					<0x28 0x00000003>, /* DCIC1_MUX_CTL */
					<0x28 0x0000000c>; /* DCIC2_MUX_CTL */
		};

		ipu1_csi0_mux {
			compatible = "video-mux";
			mux-controls = <&mux 0>;
			/* ... */
		};

		ipu1_csi1_mux {
			compatible = "video-mux";
			mux-controls = <&mux 1>;
			/* ... */
		};
	};

Philipp

I hope you mean
 					<0x0c 0x00000300>, /* LVDS1_MUX_CTL */

:-)

(BTW, same bug in the other example)
