Hi Vinod,

Thanks for reviewing.

Will fix in v2.

Yes, it is documented further down in the file under DMA Client.

To make it clearer in V2 I could change to

"- #dma-cells	: Must be <3>. See DMA client section below"?

- #dma-cells	: Must be <3>
			1st cell: Phandle to       ... <blah>
			2nd cell: DMA channel      ... <blah>
			3rd cell: Flags describing ... <blah>

I'd prefer not to document it twice in the same file as it is
almost 20 lines long. IMHO it makes more sense to document it under
the dma-client section like it is done presently, because when writing a
dma-client node you need to know what these things mean.

When writing a controller node all you only need to know is
"Must be <3>". A more avid reader now has a nice pointer to scroll
down if they wish to find out more.

regards,

Peter.

+
+The FDMA is a general-purpose direct memory access controller capable of
+supporting 16 independent DMA channels. It accepts up to 32 DMA requests.
+The FDMA is based on a Slim processor which require a firmware.
+
+* FDMA Controller
+
+Required properties:
+- compatible	: Should be "st,fdma_mpe31"
+- reg		: Should contain DMA registers location and length
+- interrupts	: Should contain one interrupt shared by all channel
+- dma-channels	: Number of channels supported by the controller
+- #dma-cells	: Must be <3>.
+- st,fw-name	: Should contain the name of the firmware to be loaded
+- clocks	: Must contain an entry for each name in clock-names
+- clock-names	: Must contain "fdma_slim, fdma_hi, fdma_low, fdma_ic" entries
+See: Documentation/devicetree/bindings/clock/clock-bindings.txt
+
+
+Example:
+
+	fdma1: fdma-app@1 {
+		compatible = "st,fdma_mpe31";
+		reg = <0x8e40000 0x20000>;

+			      "fdma_hi",
+			      "fdma_low",
+			      "fdma_ic";
+
+* DMA client
+
+Required properties:
+- dmas: Comma separated list of dma channel requests
+- dma-names: Names of the aforementioned requested channels
+
+Each dmas request consists of 4 cells:
+1. A phandle pointing to the FDMA controller
+2. The request line number
+3. A 32bit mask specifying (see include/linux/platform_data/dma-st-fdma.h)
+ -bit 2-0: Holdoff value, dreq will be masked for
+	0x0: 0-0.5us
+	0x1: 0.5-1us
+	0x2: 1-1.5us
+ -bit 17: data swap
+	0x0: disabled
+	0x1: enabled
+ -bit 21: Increment Address
+	0x0: no address increment between transfers
+	0x1: increment address between transfers
