description: |
  The Arm Message Handling Unit (MHU) Version 2 is a mailbox controller that has
  between 1 and 124 channel windows (each 32-bit wide) to provide unidirectional
  communication with remote processor(s), where the number of channel windows
  are implementation dependent.

  Given the unidirectional nature of the controller, an MHUv2 mailbox may only
  be written to or read from. If a pair of MHU controllers is implemented
  between two processing elements to provide bidirectional communication, these
  must be specified as two separate mailboxes.

  If the interrupts property is present in device tree node, then its treated as
  a "receiver" mailbox, otherwise a "sender".

  An MHU controller must be specified along with the supported transport
  protocols. The transport protocols determine the method of data transmission
  as well as the number of provided mailbox channels.

  Following are the possible transport protocols.

  - Data-transfer: Each transfer is made of one or more words, using one or more
    channel windows.

  - Doorbell: Each transfer is made up of single bit flag, using any one of the
    bits in a channel window. A channel window can support up to 32 doorbells
    and the entire window shall be used in doorbell protocol.  Optionally, data
    may be transmitted through a shared memory region, wherein the MHU is used
    strictly as an interrupt generation mechanism but that is out of the scope
    of these bindings.

    description: |
      The MHUv2 controller may contain up to 124 channel windows (each 32-bit
      wide). The hardware and the DT bindings allows any combination of those to
      be used for various transport protocols.

      This property allows a platform to describe how these channel windows are
      used in various transport protocols. The entries in this property shall be
      present as an array of tuples, where each tuple describes details about
      one of the transport protocol being implemented over some channel
      window(s).

      The first field of a tuple signifies the transfer protocol, 0 is reserved
      for doorbell protocol, and 1 is reserved for data-transfer protocol.
      Using any other value in the first field of a tuple makes it invalid.

      The second field of a tuple signifies the number of channel windows where
      the protocol would be used and should be set to a non zero value. For
      doorbell protocol this field signifies the number of 32-bit channel
      windows that implement the doorbell protocol. For data-transfer protocol,
      this field signifies the number of 32-bit channel windows that implement
      the data-transfer protocol.

      The total number of channel windows specified here shouldn't be more than
      the ones implemented by the platform, though one can specify lesser number
      of windows here than what the platform implements.

          ...

          arm,mhuv2-protocols = <0 2>, <1 1>, <1 5>, <1 7>;
      }

      The above example defines the protocols of an ARM MHUv2 mailbox
      controller, where a total of 15 channel windows are used. The first two
      windows are used in doorbell protocol (64 doorbells), followed by 1, 5 and
      7 windows (separately) used in data-transfer protocol.

  '#mbox-cells':
    description: |
      It is always set to 2. The first argument in the consumers 'mboxes'
      property represents the channel window group, which may be used in
      doorbell, or data-transfer protocol, and the second argument (only
      relevant in doorbell protocol, should be 0 otherwise) represents the
      doorbell number within the 32 bit wide channel window.

      From the example given above for arm,mhuv2-protocols, here is how a client
      node can reference them.

      mboxes = <&mhu 0 5>; // Channel Window Group 0, doorbell 5.
      mboxes = <&mhu 1 7>; // Channel Window Group 1, doorbell 7.
      mboxes = <&mhu 2 0>; // Channel Window Group 2, data transfer protocol with 1 window.
      mboxes = <&mhu 3 0>; // Channel Window Group 3, data transfer protocol with 5 windows.
      mboxes = <&mhu 4 0>; // Channel Window Group 4, data transfer protocol with 7 windows.
