+* FSL MPIC Message Registers
+
+This binding specifies what properties must be available in the device tree
+representation of the message register blocks found in some FSL MPIC
+implementations.
+
+Required properties:
+
+ - compatible: Specifies the compatibility list for the message register
+ block. The type shall be <string> and the value shall be of the form
+ "fsl,mpic-v<version>-msgr", where <version> is the version number of
+ the MPIC containing the message registers.
+
+ - reg: Specifies the base physical address(s) and size(s) of the
+ message register block's addressable register space. The type shall be
+ <prop-encoded-array>.
+
+ - interrupts: Specifies a list of interrupt source and level-sense pairs.
+ The type shall be <prop-encoded-array>. The length shall be equal to
+ the number of registers that are available for receiving interrupts.
+
+Optional properties:
+
+ - mpic-msgr-receive-mask: Specifies what registers in the containing block
+ are allowed to receive interrupts. The value is a bit mask where a set
+ bit at bit 'n' indicates that message register 'n' can receive interrupts.
+ The type shall be <prop-encoded-array>. If not present, then all of
+ the message registers in the block are available.
+
+Aliases:
+
+ An alias should be created for every message register block. They are not
+ required, though. However, a particular implementation of this binding
+ may require aliases to be present. Aliases are of the form
+ 'mpic-msgr-block<n>', where <n> is an integer specifying the block's number.
+ Numbers shall start at 0.
+
+Example:
+
+ aliases {
+ mpic-msgr-block0 = &mpic_msgr_block0;
+ mpic-msgr-block1 = &mpic_msgr_block1;
+ };
+
+ mpic_msgr_block0: mpic-msgr-block at 41400 {
+ compatible = "fsl,mpic-v3.1-msgr";
+ reg = <0x41400 0x200>;
+ // Message registers 0 and 2 in this block can receive interrupts on
+ // sources 0xb0 and 0xb2, respectively.
+ interrupts = <0xb0 2 0xb2 2>;
+ mpic-msgr-receive-mask = <0x5>;
+ };
+
+ mpic_msgr_block1: mpic-msgr-block at 42400 {
+ compatible = "fsl,mpic-v3.1-msgr";
+ reg = <0x42400 0x200>;
+ // Message registers 0 and 2 in this block can receive interrupts on
+ // sources 0xb4 and 0xb6, respectively.
+ interrupts = <0xb4 2 0xb6 2>;
+ mpic-msgr-receive-mask = <0x5>;
+ };
