Subject: [PATCH 1/6] dt-bindings: Add Bao IPC shared memory driver binding
Date: Wed, 7 Jan 2026 16:28:24 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260107162829.416885-2-joaopeixoto@osyx.tech> (raw)

+description: |
+ Shared memory based communication device for Bao hypervisor guests.
+
+ The device describes a set of shared-memory regions used for
+ communication between Bao guests. Each guest instantiating this
+ device uses one region for reading data produced by a peer guest
+ and another region for writing data consumed by that peer.
+
+properties:
+ compatible:
+ const: bao,ipcshmem

+ reg:

+ Shared memory region used for IPC.

+
+ read-channel:
+ description: |
+ Shared-memory sub-region that this guest reads from.
+
+ This region is written by the peer Bao guest and read by the
+ guest instantiating this device.
+
+ Consists of two cells:
+ - offset into the shared-memory region defined by `reg`
+ - size in bytes
+ $ref: /schemas/types.yaml#/definitions/uint32-array
