Shouldn't mpc8313 have:
compatible = "fsl,mpc8313-tdm", "fsl,mpc8315-tdm"?

I thought we were going to use 8313 as the canonical implementation, not
8315.

Just say there's two reg resources, and that the first is the TDM
registers and the second is the TDM DMAC registers.

It's typically not going to be the actual physical address, but rather
an offset that gets translated through a parent node's ranges.

Remove "value type"; it's standard.

Will this frequency ever need to be > 4GHz?

Might want to specify as u32 or u64, as ePAPR suggests.

What is "tdm-err-intr-type"?  The interrupt specifier encoding is
defined by the interrupt controller.  There might be one cell, two
cells, four cells, etc.  Remove "value type", it's standard.

Use a forward slash -- this isn't a Windows filesystem path. :-)

Show a real clock-frequency, perhaps with a comment saying it's
typically filled in by boot software.

That phy-handle is invalid syntax, perhaps you meant:

Missing semicolons on the last two properties.

Thanks Scott for the review.

Will send an updated revision with the comments taken care.

MPC8315 was the first FSL platform to have this controller.
MPC8313 does not have TDM.

Okay, I think we missed this comment, you already gave this earlier.

Don't think so, at max this will be CCB, not sure if CCB on our platforms may get bigger than 4G ever.

Means Value type: <u32 or u64>?
In this case the driver must always use 64bit data structure to read this. Is this correct?

Apparently, 4GB is the new 640K.

In Poonam's defense, every clock frequency property in the device tree
is a 32-bit integer.  I've never seen a 64-bit one.

Scott, are you suggesting that Poonam put a non-zero number in the DTS
for clock-frequency?  If so, then I don't think that's a good idea, if
U-Boot will always override it.

This is a device tree binding document, not U-Boot specific.  It
describes what Linux (or another OS) can expect to see, not how it gets
there.

That doesn't really answer my question.  We currently have many properties
that define a clock frequency, and the DTS sets them all to 0, with the
intent of having U-Boot update them.  Now maybe these should all be
deleted, but it seems that setting them to a non-zero value is wrong,
because it might mislead people into thinking that the property is not
updated by U-Boot.  When you see something like this:

	clock-frequency = <0>;

It's pretty obvious that U-boot will fill it in.

OK, so no example for mpc8313 then. :-)

Still, I think we should always make clock-frequency properties be 32/64
as the ePAPR describes, just in case.

Yes.

No, you'd use of_read_number().  Maybe factor out an of_get_frequency().

Ideally these trees should be in U-Boot rather than Linux.

You're assuming that this is a guide for writing dts files.  If you look
at it as a guide for writing Linux code to interpret the device tree,
you'd come to the opposite conclusion.

I suggested a comment about common boot software behavior (but otherwise
show it as Linux would see it) as middle ground.
