Kernel-4.18.0-80.el8_brcm,spu-crypto

The Broadcom Secure Processing Unit (SPU) hardware supports symmetric
cryptographic offload for Broadcom SoCs. A SoC may have multiple SPU hardware
blocks.

Required properties:

  • compatible: Should be one of the following:
    brcm,spum-crypto - for devices with SPU-M hardware
    brcm,spu2-crypto - for devices with SPU2 hardware
    brcm,spu2-v2-crypto - for devices with enhanced SPU2 hardware features like SHA3
    and Rabin Fingerprint support
    brcm,spum-nsp-crypto - for the Northstar Plus variant of the SPU-M hardware

  • reg: Should contain SPU registers location and length.

  • mboxes: The mailbox channel to be used to communicate with the SPU.
    Mailbox channels correspond to DMA rings on the device.

Example:
crypto@612d0000 {
compatible = “brcm,spum-crypto”;
reg = <0 0x612d0000 0 0x900>;
mboxes = <&pdc0 0>;
};
