[PATCH v2 1/2] Documentation: tpm: add the IBM Virtual TPM device tree binding documentation

[Nayna Jain]

Virtual TPM, which is being used on IBM POWER7+ and POWER8 systems running
POWERVM, is currently supported by tpm device driver but lacks the
documentation. This patch adds the missing documentation for the existing
support.

[PATCH v2 2/2] Documentation: tpm: add the Physical TPM device tree binding documentation

[Nayna Jain]

Newly added support of TPM 2.0 eventlog securityfs pseudo files in tpm
device driver consumes device tree bindings representing I2C based
Physical TPM. This patch adds the documentation for corresponding device
tree bindings of I2C based Physical TPM. These bindings are similar to
vtpm device tree bindings being used on IBM Power7+ and Power8 Systems
running PowerVM.

Changelog v2:

- Include review feedbacks.

  - Add example for compatible property in description.
  - Delete implicit properties like status, label from description.
  - Redefine linux,sml-base description.

A generic device tree question. What is the difference between
these fields? Why the I2C one does have 'device_type'?

Please find the details as below:

compatible - Standard property name as per IEEE 1275, specifying the 
interface compatible with this device. This property is consumed by 
linux kernel for selection of device driver.

device_type - Standard property name as per IEEE 1275, specifying the 
device type. This property MAY be used by linux kernel for device driver 
selection. It is used in the case of IBM virtual TPM driver.

/**
  * vio_register_device_node: - Register a new vio device.
  * @of_node:    The OF node for this device.
  *
  * Creates and initializes a vio_dev structure from the data in
  * of_node and adds it to the list of virtual devices.
  * Returns a pointer to the created vio_dev or NULL if node has
  * NULL device_type or compatible fields.
  */
struct vio_dev *vio_register_device_node(struct device_node *of_node)

and vtpm device table being defined as below:

static struct vio_device_id tpm_ibmvtpm_device_table[] = {
         { "IBM,vtpm", "IBM,vtpm"}, 
-----------------------------------> type,compat
         { "", "" }
};

So, vio (virtual) devices uses both device_type and compatible property 
for device registration and driver selection.
In case of physical TPM, it is only compatible property being used for 
device driver selection

Also, please note that device_type property is now deprecated in latest 
Device Tree specs.

Thanks & Regards,
    - Nayna

AIUI, this should be a standard value such as serial, pci, etc. I don't 
think your use here is correct, but I could be wrong. I'm not certain 
what you do with devices that don't have a standard type.

Deprecated for Flattened DT only. OpenFirmware implementations 
can/should still use this.

Not documented, but why? label is really only useful when you have 
multiple items that humans need to identify like ports on ethernet 
switch or LEDs.

Are these "standard" IBM properties? Does dma-ranges not work for you?

Actually, the vtpm node is a unique device and did not have a standard 
type that could be used.  That is why the definition in the PAPR gave it 
the a new value.  The intention was to provide a reasonable type value. 
  The "IBM," portion of the property value is intended to identify it as 
a specific IBM implementation.

This is how the property was defined when the change was submitted to 
the PAPR. It was most likely an oversight that the IBM was not changed 
to ibm to be consistent with other property definitions.

Yes, these are the standard properties as defined in the PAPR.  Again 
the "ibm" prefix indicates that they are specific to IBM system 
implementation. They have been in existence for many years.

Sorry, I think I misinterpreted one of the earliar feedback. I will 
document it again.
