Qualcomm Hardware Mutex Block:
The hardware block provides mutexes utilized between different processors on
the SoC as part of the communication protocol used by these processors.
compatible:
Usage: required
Value type:
Definition: must be one of:"qcom,sfpb-mutex", "qcom,tcsr-mutex"
syscon:
Usage: required
Value type:
Definition: one cell containing:syscon phandle offset of the hwmutex block within the syscon stride of the hwmutex registers
#hwlock-cells:
Usage: required
Value type:
Definition: must be 1, the specified cell represent the lock id(hwlock standard property, see hwlock.txt)
Example:
tcsr_mutex_block: syscon@fd484000 {
compatible = "syscon";
reg = <0xfd484000 0x2000>;
};
hwlock@fd484000 {
compatible = "qcom,tcsr-mutex";
syscon = <&tcsr_mutex_block 0 0x80>;
#hwlock-cells = <1>;
};
