+Interconnect Provider Device Tree Bindings
+=========================================
+
+The purpose of this document is to define a common set of generic interconnect
+providers/consumers properties.
+
+
+= interconnect providers =
+
+The interconnect provider binding is intended to represent the interconnect
+controllers in the system. Each provider registers a set of interconnect
+nodes, which expose the interconnect related capabilities of the interconnect
+to consumer drivers. These capabilities can be throughput, latency, priority
+etc. The consumer drivers set constraints on interconnect path (or endpoints)
+depending on the use case. Interconnect providers can also be interconnect
+consumers, such as in the case where two network-on-chip fabrics interface
+directly.
+
+Required properties:
+- compatible : contains the interconnect provider compatible string
+- #interconnect-cells : number of cells in a interconnect specifier needed to
+ encode the interconnect node id and optionally add a
+ path tag
+
+Example:
+
+ snoc: interconnect@580000 {
+ compatible = "qcom,msm8916-snoc";
+ #interconnect-cells = <1>;
+ reg = <0x580000 0x14000>;
+ clock-names = "bus_clk", "bus_a_clk";
+ clocks = <&rpmcc RPM_SMD_SNOC_CLK>,
+ <&rpmcc RPM_SMD_SNOC_A_CLK>;
+ };
+
+
+= interconnect consumers =
+
+The interconnect consumers are device nodes which dynamically express their
+bandwidth requirements along interconnect paths they are connected to. There
+can be multiple interconnect providers on a SoC and the consumer may consume
+multiple paths from different providers depending on use case and the
+components it has to interact with.
+
+Required properties:
+interconnects : Pairs of phandles and interconnect provider specifier to denote
+ the edge source and destination ports of the interconnect path.
+ An optional path tag value could specified as additional argument
+ to both endpoints and in such cases, this information will be passed
+ to the interconnect framework to do aggregation based on the attached
+ tag.
+
+Optional properties:
+interconnect-names : List of interconnect path name strings sorted in the same
+ order as the interconnects property. Consumers drivers will use
+ interconnect-names to match interconnect paths with interconnect
+ specifier pairs.
+
+ Reserved interconnect names:
+ * dma-mem: Path from the device to the main memory of
+ the system
+
+Example:
+
+ sdhci@7864000 {
+ ...
+ interconnects = <&pnoc MASTER_SDCC_1 &bimc SLAVE_EBI_CH0>;
+ interconnect-names = "sdhc-mem";
+ };
+
+Example with path tags:
+
+ gnoc: interconnect@17900000 {
+ ...
+ interconnect-cells = <2>;
+ };
+
+ mnoc: interconnect@1380000 {
+ ...
+ interconnect-cells = <2>;
+ };
+
+ cpu@0 {
+ ...
+ interconnects = <&gnoc MASTER_APPSS_PROC 3 &mnoc SLAVE_EBI1 3>;
+ }
