Required properties:

  • compatible: Should be “brcm,bcm2835-mbox”
  • reg: Specifies base physical address and size of the registers
  • interrupts: The interrupt number
        See bindings/interrupt-controller/brcm,bcm2835-armctrl-ic.txt
    
  • #mbox-cells: Specifies the number of cells needed to encode a mailbox
        channel. The value shall be 0, since there is only one
        mailbox channel implemented by the device.
    

Example:

mailbox: mailbox@7e00b880 {
compatible = “brcm,bcm2835-mbox”;
reg = <0x7e00b880 0x40>;
interrupts = <0 1>;
#mbox-cells = <0>;
};

firmware: firmware {
compatible = “raspberrypi,firmware”;
mboxes = <&mailbox>;
#power-domain-cells = <1>;
};
