+Common Domains Controller bindings properties
+
+Domains Controller framework defines common bindings properties to describe
+the configurations to be applied for each device.
+
+Domains Controller bindings:
+- #domainctrl-cells : provide the number of parameters provided with the
+ phandle by the client device
+
+Client device node bindings:
+- domainsctrl-names : list of strings to name the configurations.
+ "default" and "unbind" are reserved names used by
+ the framework.
+- domainsctrl-X : list of configurations to be applied where X is
+ the index of the configuration within the node.
+
+Example of usage with:
+- a domains controller with a 2 parameters cell
+- a domains controller with a 3 parameters cell
+- a client device node using the both controllers and 2 configurations
+ named "default" and "unbind"
+
+ctrl0: ctrl@0 {
+ #domainctrl-cells = <2>;
+};
+
+ctrl1: ctrl@1 {
+ #domainctrl-cells = <3>;
+};
+
+foo@0 {
+ domains-names = "default", "unbind";
+ domainctrl-0 = <&ctrl0 1 2>, <&ctrl1 3 4 5>;
+ domainctrl-1 = <&ctrl0 6 7>, <&ctrl1 8 9 0>;

I suspect this is going to need a few more words about what a Domains
Controller is.

Does the description of the framework in the cover letter looks better
for you ?
I'm not comfortable to put it in bindings file but maybe I'm wrong.

Yes, that looks reasonable to me.

I can't see how someone will understand the binding document as a
standalone document - it's not like domains controllers are a widely
understood concept in the industry.

The goal of this framework is to offer an interface for the
hardware blocks controlling bus accesses rights.
Bus domains controllers are typically used to control if a
hardware block can perform read or write operations on bus.
Smarter domains controllers could be able to define accesses
rights per hardware blocks to control where they can read
or write.
Domains controller configurations are provided in device node,
parsed by the framework and send to the driver to apply them.
Each controller may need different number and type of inputs
to configure a domain so device-tree properties size have to
be define by using "#domainctrl-cells".
Domains configurations properties have to be named "domainsctrl-X"
on device node.
"domainsctrl-names" keyword can also be used to give a name to
a specific configuration.
Example of device-tree:
ctrl0: domainsctrl@0 {
#domainctrl-cells = <2>;
};
foo: foo@0 {
domainsctrl-names = "default", "setting1";
domainsctrl-0 = <&ctrl0 1 2>;
domainsctrl-1 = <&ctrl0 3 4>;
};
Configurations could be applied with functions like
domainsctrl_set_config_by_index() or domainsctrl_set_config_by_name().
domainsctrl_set_default_config() function will apply the
configuration named "default" (if existing) or the configuration
with index 0 (i.e. domainsctrl-0).
Drivers could register/unregister themselves be calling
domainsctrl_register/domainsctrl_unregister functions.
When a configuration has to be applied the driver callback,
provided in the ops at registration time, set_config is called
by the framework.

Do you have any clients in the works for this? It seems fairly likely
that everything is fine in terms of setting the mode but it'd be good to
confirm that's the case. The main thing I can think of that might be a
problem here is how you'd handle a case where we were talking to another
processor that owns the permissions, we'd probably want more ways to
query state there but I'm thinking there'd likely be some other higher
level way to talk to the other processor there so perhaps it's moot.
Otherwise this all looks pretty clean and simple, there's some handling
for probe deferral in there which is the only slightly complex thing I
noticed.

Patch 3 use those functions to apply the default configuration before probing
a driver (or after unbind it). I have in mind that drivers could ask to apply
a configuration like it is done for pinctrl in resume/suspend functions.
An example of that could be to start the hardware block on the main processor
and, when going to sleep, change the configuration to grant the access to lower
power processor.
I think that talking to a remote processor is another problem already addressed
remoteproc or secure monitor calls. Domains controllers drivers should be created
for those cases.

Right, I saw that but I was more thinking of individual drivers.

Yes, that sounds like a good application. I can also imagine something
like handing some hardware over to an acceleration engine (or a smaller
microcontroller core acting as one).

To avoid modifying all the drivers call domainsctrl_set_default_config
before probe to apply the configuration define in device node (if any).
When unbinding the device try to apply configuration named "unbind".

STM32 Extended TrustZone Protection Controller (ETZPC) got 3 domains:
- secure: hardware blocks are only accessible by software running on trust
zone.
- non-secure: hardware blocks are accessible by non-secure software (i.e.
linux kernel).
- coprocessor: hardware blocks are only accessible by the corpocessor.
Each hardware block status is defined by a 2 bits field and all of
them are packed into 32 bits registers. ETZPC can manage up to 94
hardware blocks.

Lots of things are domains. Power domains, clock domains, etc. But
naming is hard.
We now have the inter-connect binding which ATM only deals with
bandwidth. Any reason we can't add access controls to that?

We already have a way to assign secure vs. non-secure with 'status'.
Ignoring co-processors for a minute, why does that not work for you?
Co-processors are so varied in terms of capabilities and view of the
system, I'm not sure we can define something generic.

Finally, for a new, common binding, I'd like to see more than one
platform using it (or at least an intent to use it).

I use 'domains' because it regroup hardware sharing the same access rights.
It is maybe not the best word.

Because the targeted hardware block isn't the inter-connect but something
that is acting as a firewall on the bus to control the accesses rights on
hardware blocks.
'bus firewall' could have been a name for this framework but, for me, it
sound like something related to networking and that is not the case...
I could go in 'firewall' direction: driver will become 'bus firewall controller'
and apply 'firewall configurations' to grant/revoke accesses rights.
Does that sound better for you ?

I aim to be able to dynamically change the configuration (like for pinctrl)
so status is not enough. It is true that stm32 etzpc is limited to control
the split between main and remote processors but other controllers could have
another granularity.

It isn't not about define co-precessors capabilities but about define
a new API for hardware blocks controlling accesses on the bus.

I kwon at least two other hardware block who can take benefits of this:
- ARM TCZ 400: http://infocenter.arm.com/help/index.jsp?topic=/com.arm.doc.ddi0504c/index.html
which is able to manage up to 8 regoins in address space.
- IMX Ressource Domain Controller (RDC): supports four domains and up to eight regions
I hope that others will show up when reading this thread.
