+Altera FPGAs in passive serial mode
+-----------------------------------
+
+This binding defines the control interface to Altera FPGAs in
+passive serial mode. This is used to upload the firmware and
+to start the FPGA.
+
+Required properties:
+- compatible: shall be "altr,fpga-passive-serial"
+- reg: SPI chip select
+- nstat-gpios: Specify GPIO for controlling the nstat pin
+- confd-gpios: Specify GPIO for controlling the confd pin
+- nconfig-gpios: Specify GPIO for controlling the nconfig pin
+
+Example:
+
+ fpga@0 {
+ compatible = "altr,fpga-passive-serial";
+ nstat-gpios = <&gpio4 18 0>;
+ confd-gpios = <&gpio4 19 0>;
+ nconfig-gpios = <&gpio4 20 0>;
+ spi-max-frequency = <10000000>;
+ reg = <0>;
+ };
