The System Controller Firmware (SCFW) is a low-level system function which runs on a dedicated Cortex-M core to provide power, clock, and resource management. It exists on some i.MX8 processors. e.g. i.MX8QM (QM, QP), and i.MX8QX (QXP, DX).

It exists on some i.MX8 processors. e.g. i.MX8QM +(QM, QP), and i.MX8QX (QXP, DX). + +The AP communicates with the SC using a multi-ported MU module found +in the LSIO subsystem. The current definition of this MU module provides +5 remote AP connections to the SC to support up to 5 execution environments +(TZ, HV, standard Linux, etc.). The SC side of this MU module interfaces +with the LSIO DSC IP bus. The SC firmware will communicate with this MU +using the MSI bus. + +System Controller Device Node: +============================= + +Required properties: +------------------- +- compatible: should be "fsl,imx8qxp-scu" or "fsl,imx8qm-scu" +- fsl,mu: a phandle to the Message Unit used by SCU. Should be + one of LSIO MU0~M4 for imx8qxp and imx8qm. Users need + to make sure not use the one which is conflict with + other execution environments. e.g. ATF. + +Examples: +-------- +lsio_mu1: mailbox at 5d1c0000 { + compatible = "fsl,imx8qxp-mu"; + reg = <0x0 0x5d1c0000 0x0 0x10000>; + interrupts = <GIC_SPI 176 IRQ_TYPE_LEVEL_HIGH>; + #mbox-cells = <0>; +}; + +scu { + compatible = "fsl,imx8qxp-scu"; + fsl,mu = <&lsio_mu1>; +};
