Subject: [PATCH v2 0/4] arm64: Add basic support for Amlogic A1 SoC Family

A1 is an application processor designed for smart audio and IoT applications,
with Dual core ARM Cortex-A35 CPU. Unlike the previous GXL and G12 series,
there is no Cortex-M3 AO CPU in it.

This serial add basic support for the Amlogic A1 based Amlogic AD401 board:
which describe components as follows: Reserve Memory, CPU, GIC, IRQ,
Timer, UART. It's capable of booting up into the serial console.

The pclk for uart_AO_B need to be fixed once A1 clock driver is merged.
In this version, it rely on bootloader to enable the pclk gate

Changes since v1 [0]:
- fix coding style
- collect Reviewed-by

why do we need that comment here (I don't understand it - why doesn't

only now I notice that all our other .dtsi also use hex values

the indentation of the "reg" property is off here

also I'm a bit surprised to see no busses (like aobus, cbus, periphs, ...) here
aren't there any busses defined in the A1 SoC implementation or are
were you planning to add them later?

Most of the registers are on the apb_32b bus. aobus, cbus and periphs are not used in A1.

OK, thank you for the explanation
since you're going to re-send the patch anyways: can you please
include the apb_32b bus?
all other upstream Amlogic .dts are using the bus definitions, so that
will make A1 consistent with the other SoCs

unless there is an 64 bits apb bus as well, I suppose 'apb' would be enough ?

In A1 (and the later C1), BUS is not mentioned in the memmap and register spec.
Registers are organized and grouped by functions, and we can not find information about buses from the SoC document.
Maybe it's better to remove bus definitions for these chips.

There is no 64bits apb bus in A1, only apb32.
Unlike the previous series, For A1 and C1, we can not get bus information for each register from the memmap and datesheet.
Do we need to add bus description for them too? If yes, I can add 'apb' .

do you know why the busses are not part of the documentation?

my understanding is that devicetree describes the hardware
so if there's a bus in hardware (that we know about) then we should
describe it in devicetree

personally I think busses also make the .dts easier to read:
instead of a huge .dts with all nodes on one level it's split into
multiple smaller sub-nodes - thus making it easier to keep track of
"where am I in this file".

OK, I will add the bus description for A1.
Thank you for your suggestion.
