I found "marvell,usb2-host-miscellaneous" too generic, I would prefer
that we call it "marvell,armada-3700-usb2-host-miscellaneous" as we do
for all the other IP.

Ah yes, you are right. Perhaps just '-misc' to shorten it a little bit.

Sure, no problem.

I will wait for other comments on the rest of the series and then I
will update the bindings/DT patch. Perhaps if I don't get more
feedback I will just resend the concerned patches (6/10 and 9/10).


Thanks,

Do we really need different compatible strings for those ? I assume the
IP block is exactly the same for the two PHYs, right ? If so, we should
use the same compatible string.

Didn't we discuss that we can lookup from the PHY whether the USB
controller it is connected to is in host mode or otg mode ?

Those registers are contiguous to the register range of the PHY itself.
What was the criteria used to decide that we need two separate DT nodes
for these ?

Best regards,

For what I understand, the PHYs are different. At least this is how
they are described in the specification. I can list at least two
differences visible in the register set:
* one has OTG registers, the other does not.
* one has charger detection capabilities (and registers), the other
  does not.

Yes, but having two different PHYs meant having two different
compatibles, hence there was no need in the driver to use this
lookup approach. Anyway this is an implementation detail and it is
always possible to go back.

Because this area contains a bunch of registers, most of them are
there to manage the PHY, but others are related to the USB controller
(ie. a software reset). I know the current USB controller driver does
not access this area but what if one day we decide to do it?

OK, then indeed it makes sense to have two different compatible strings.

OK, if indeed this register area contains register used both for the
PHY and for something else, your DT representation makes sense.

Thanks for those clarifications!

+MVEBU A3700 UTMI PHY
+--------------------
+
+USB2 UTMI+ PHY controllers can be found on the following Marvell MVEBU SoCs:
+* Armada 3700
+
+On Armada 3700, there are two USB controllers, one is compatible with the USB2
+and USB3 specifications and supports OTG. The other one is USB2 compliant and
+only supports host mode. Both of these controllers come with a slightly
+different UTMI PHY.
+
+Required Properties:
+
+- compatible: Should be one of:
+	      * "marvell,a3700-utmi-host-phy" for the PHY connected to
+	        the USB2 host-only controller.
+	      * "marvell,a3700-utmi-otg-phy" for the PHY connected to
+	        the USB3 and USB2 OTG capable controller.
+- reg: PHY IP register range.
+- marvell,usb-misc-reg: handle on the "USB miscellaneous registers" shared
+			region covering registers related to both the host
+			controller and the PHY.
+- #phy-cells: Standard property (Documentation: phy-bindings.txt) Should be 0.
+
+
+Example:
+
+	usb2_utmi_host_phy: phy@5f000 {
+		compatible = "marvell,armada-3700-utmi-host-phy";
+		reg = <0x5f000 0x800>;
+		marvell,usb-misc-reg = <&usb2_syscon>;
+		#phy-cells = <0>;
+	};
+
+	usb2_syscon: system-controller@5f800 {
+		compatible = "marvell,usb2-host-miscellaneous", "syscon";
+		reg = <0x5f800 0x800>;
+	};
