PCIe Controller Device Tree#

This topic applies only to Linux platforms.

This PCIe controller is based on the Synopsis Designware PCIe IP and thus inherits all the common properties defined in snps, dw-pcie.yaml and snps, dw-pcie-ep.yaml. Some of the controller instances are dual mode where in they can work either in root port mode or endpoint mode but one at a time.

Required Properties#

  • power-domains : A phandle to the node that controls power to the respective PCIe controller and a specifier name for the PCIe controller. Following are the specifiers for the different PCIe controllers:

    • TEGRA194_POWER_DOMAIN_PCIEX8B: C0

    • TEGRA194_POWER_DOMAIN_PCIEX1A: C1

    • TEGRA194_POWER_DOMAIN_PCIEX1A: C2

    • TEGRA194_POWER_DOMAIN_PCIEX1A: C3

    • TEGRA194_POWER_DOMAIN_PCIEX4A: C4

    • TEGRA194_POWER_DOMAIN_PCIEX8A: C5 These specifiers are defined in 20 “include/dt-bindings/power/tegra194-powergate.h” file.

  • reg : A list of physical base address and length pairs for each set of controller registers. Must contain an entry for each entry in the reg-names property.

  • reg-names : Must include the following entries:

    • “appl”: Controller’s application logic registers 26 “config”: As per the definition in snps, dw-pcie.yaml.

    • “atu_dma”: iATU and DMA registers. This is where the iATU (internal Address Translation Unit) registers of the PCIe core are made available for software access.

    • “dbi”: The aperture where root port’s own configuration registers are available.

  • interrupts : A list of interrupt outputs of the controller. Must contain an entry for each entry in the interrupt-names property.

  • #address-cells : Address representation for root ports (must be 3):

  • cell 0 specifies the bus and device numbers of the root port:

* cell 1 denotes the upper 32 address bits and should be 0
* cell 2 contains the lower 32 address bits and is used to translate to the CPU address space.
  • #size-cells : Size representation for root ports (must be 2)

  • ranges : Describes the translation of addresses for root ports and standard PCI regions. The entries must be 7 cells each, where the first three cells correspond to the address as described for the #address-cells property above, the fourth and fifth cells are for the physical CPU address to translate to and the sixth and seventh cells are as described for the #size-cells property above.
