+Hisilicon mbigen device tree bindings.
+=======================================
+
+Mbigen means: message based interrupt generator.
+
+MBI is kind of msi interrupt only used on Non-PCI devices.
+
+To reduce the wired interrupt number connected to GIC,
+Hisilicon designed mbigen to collect and generate interrupt.
+
+
+Non-pci devices can connect to mbigen and gnerate the inteerrupt
+by wirtting ITS register.
+
+The mbigen and devices connect to mbigen have the following properties:
+
+
+Mbigen required properties:
+-------------------------------------------
+-compatible: Should be "hisilicon,mbi-gen"
+-msi-parent: should specified the ITS mbigen connected
+-interrupt controller: Identifies the node as an interrupt controller
+- #interrupt-cells : Specifies the number of cells needed to encode an
+  interrupt source. The value is 2 for now.
+- reg: Specifies the base physical address and size of the ITS
+  registers.
+
+Examples:
+
+	mbigen_pa: interrupt-controller at 4c030000 {
+			compatible = "hisilicon,mbi-gen";
+			msi-parent = <&its_pa>;
+			interrupt-controller;
+			#interrupt-cells = <2>;
+			reg = <0x4c030000 0x10000>;
+		};
+
+Device connect to mbigen required properties:
+----------------------------------------------------
+-interrupt-parent: Specifies the mbigen node which device connected.
+-interrupts:specifies the interrupt source.The first cell is hwirq num, the
+  second number is trigger type.
+
+Examples:
+	usb0: ehci at a1000000 {
+		compatible = "generic-ehci";
+		interrupt-parent = <&mbigen_pa>;
+		reg = <0xa1000000 0x10000>;
+		interrupts = <20 4>;
+	};

The precise format of these cells needs to be specified, at this point in the binding document.

Why do you say "The value is 2 for now"? Do you expect this to grow in future? If so, why?

This doesn't sound right. This isn't the ITS, so it shouldn't refer to the ITS registers in this manner.

Does the mbigen not have its own set of registers?

Thanks,
Mark.

ok, i will fix this in next version

Why do you say "The value is 2 for now"? Do you expect this to grow in future? If so, why?

Because the hardware design will be changed in the near future, to compatible with these chips, this value need to change either.

yes, you are right, it should be mbigen register.
