Device-Tree binding for regmap
The endianness mode of CPU & Device scenarios:
Index Device Endianness properties
---------------------------------------------------
1 BE 'big-endian'
2 LE 'little-endian'
3 Native 'native-endian'
For one device driver, which will run in different scenarios above
on different SoCs using the devicetree, we need one way to simplify
this.
Optional properties:
- {big,little,native}-endian: these are boolean properties, if absent
then the implementation will choose a default based on the device
being controlled. These properties are for register values and all
the buffers only. Native endian means that the CPU and device have
the same endianness.
Examples:
Scenario 1 : CPU in LE mode & device in LE mode.
dev: dev@40031000 {
compatible = "name";
reg = <0x40031000 0x1000>;
...
};
Scenario 2 : CPU in LE mode & device in BE mode.
dev: dev@40031000 {
compatible = "name";
reg = <0x40031000 0x1000>;
...
big-endian;
};
Scenario 3 : CPU in BE mode & device in BE mode.
dev: dev@40031000 {
compatible = "name";
reg = <0x40031000 0x1000>;
...
};
Scenario 4 : CPU in BE mode & device in LE mode.
dev: dev@40031000 {
compatible = "name";
reg = <0x40031000 0x1000>;
...
little-endian;
};
