Subject: [PATCH v2] dt-bindings: misc: Add binding for Xilinx AXI-Stream FIFO
Date: Sun, 10 May 2026 04:44:57 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260510084458.73685-1-pramod.nexgen@gmail.com> (raw)

Add a YAML schema for the Xilinx AXI-Stream FIFO IP core (PG080).
The binding documents the three supported compatible strings and all
vendor-specific properties that the axis-fifo driver reads from the
device tree.

This resolves the following checkpatch.pl warnings in
drivers/staging/axis-fifo/axis-fifo.c:
  WARNING: DT compatible string "xlnx,axi-fifo-mm-s-4.1" appears un-documented
  WARNING: DT compatible string "xlnx,axi-fifo-mm-s-4.2" appears un-documented
  WARNING: DT compatible string "xlnx,axi-fifo-mm-s-4.3" appears un-documented

Signed-off-by: Pramod Maurya <pramod.nexgen@gmail.com>
---
Changes in v2:
- Delete drivers/staging/axis-fifo/axis-fifo.txt as part of the
  conversion (was missing from v1)
- Add all Vivado-generated properties to the schema so that real
  hardware DT nodes pass validation with additionalProperties: false
- Update example to match a realistic Vivado-generated DT node
  including all properties

-Xilinx AXI-Stream FIFO v4.1 IP core
-
-This IP core has read and write AXI-Stream FIFOs, the contents of which can
-be accessed from the AXI4 memory-mapped interface. This is useful for
-transferring data from a processor into the FPGA fabric. The driver creates
-a character device that can be read/written to with standard
-open/read/write/close.
-
-See Xilinx PG080 document for IP details.
-
-Currently supports only store-forward mode with a 32-bit
-AXI4-Lite interface. DOES NOT support:
-	- cut-through mode
