description:
List of phandle and mailbox channel specifiers. It should contain
- exactly one or two mailboxes, one for transmitting messages("tx")
- and another optional for receiving the notifications("rx") if supported.
+ exactly one, two or three mailboxes; the first one or two for transmitting
+ messages ("tx") and another optional ("rx") for receiving notifications
+ and delayed responses, if supported by the platform.
+ The number of mailboxes needed for transmitting messages depends on the
+ type of channels exposed by the specific underlying mailbox controller;
+ one single channel descriptor is enough if such channel is bidirectional,
+ while two channel descriptors are needed to represent the SCMI ("tx")
+ channel if the underlying mailbox channels are of unidirectional type.
+ The effective combination in numbers of mboxes and shmem descriptors let
+ the SCMI subsystem determine unambiguosly which type of SCMI channels are
+ made available by the underlying mailbox controller and how to use them.
+ 1 mbox / 1 shmem => SCMI TX over 1 mailbox bidirectional channel
+ 2 mbox / 2 shmem => SCMI TX and RX over 2 mailbox bidirectional channels
+ 2 mbox / 1 shmem => SCMI TX over 2 mailbox unidirectional channels
+ 3 mbox / 2 shmem => SCMI TX and RX over 3 mailbox unidirectional channels
+ Any other combination of mboxes and shmem is invalid.
