[PATCH v3 0/3] iio: adc: aspeed: Fix SCU lookup for multi-SCU AST2700
From: Billy Tsai
Date: Mon Oct 05 2026 - 06:23:12 EST
The ADC's reference-voltage trimming data lives in a SCU register. The
driver has always located that SCU with a global, name-based
device-tree search, which works as long as a platform only has a
single node named "syscon". AST2700 splits its SCU into two
instances, syscon0 and syscon1, that share that same node name and
differ only by label and unit address, so the lookup always resolves
to syscon0 even when the ADC's trimming data lives in syscon1.
This series adds an explicit "aspeed,trim-syscon" phandle property so multi-SCU
platforms can point the ADC at the right SCU, keeps the existing
global lookup as a fallback for single-SCU platforms and already
deployed device trees, and wires the new property up on AST2700.
Patch summary:
1. dt-bindings: iio: adc: Add syscon property for multi-SCU SoCs
2. iio: adc: aspeed: Use syscon phandle for trimming data when available
3. arm64: dts: aspeed: Add syscon phandle to AST2700 ADC nodes

Changes in v3:
- Switch the LLM attribution trailer to "Assisted-by: LLM", the format
required by Documentation/process/coding-assistants.rst, instead of
naming the specific tool/model
- Move each patch's Signed-off-by to be the last trailer, after
Assisted-by
- In patch 2, use dev_of_node() instead of dereferencing
data->dev->of_node, and check the new property with
of_property_present() before calling the non-optional
syscon_regmap_lookup_by_phandle()

Changes in v2:
- Rename the new property to "aspeed,trim-syscon": a bare "syscon" is
not a generic property per writing-bindings.rst, so follow its
vendor,type-syscon convention
- Reword the property's description to state its purpose instead of
restating the schema's required condition in prose
- Drop the extra AST2700 example added for the one new property
- Link to v1: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20261001-ast27xx-adc-upstream-v1-0-5ace57533418@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx
