+* Freescale QUICC Engine module (QE)
+This represents qe module that is installed on PowerQUICC II Pro.
+
+NOTE: This is an interim binding; it should be updated to fit
+in with the CPM binding later in this document.
+
+Basically, it is a bus of devices, that could act more or less
+as a complete entity (UCC, USB etc ). All of them should be siblings on
+the "root" qe node, using the common properties from there.
+The description below applies to the qe of MPC8360 and
+more nodes and properties would be extended in the future.
+
+i) Root QE device
+
+Required properties:
+- compatible : should be "fsl,qe";
+- model : precise model of the QE, Can be "QE", "CPM", or "CPM2"
+- reg : offset and length of the device registers.
+- bus-frequency : the clock frequency for QUICC Engine.
+- fsl,qe-num-riscs: define how many RISC engines the QE has.
+- fsl,qe-num-snums: define how many serial number(SNUM) the QE can use for the
+ threads.
+
+Optional properties:
+- fsl,firmware-phandle:
+ Usage: required only if there is no fsl,qe-firmware child node
+ Value type: <phandle>
+ Definition: Points to a firmware node (see "QE Firmware Node" below)
+ that contains the firmware that should be uploaded for this QE.
+ The compatible property for the firmware node should say,
+ "fsl,qe-firmware".
+
+Recommended properties
+- brg-frequency : the internal clock source frequency for baud-rate
+ generators in Hz.
+
+Example:
+ qe@e0100000 {
+ #address-cells = <1>;
+ #size-cells = <1>;
+ #interrupt-cells = <2>;
+ compatible = "fsl,qe";
+ ranges = <0 e0100000 00100000>;
+ reg = <e0100000 480>;
+ brg-frequency = <0>;
+ bus-frequency = <179A7B00>;
+ }
+
+* Multi-User RAM (MURAM)
+
+Required properties:
+- compatible : should be "fsl,qe-muram", "fsl,cpm-muram".
+- mode : the could be "host" or "slave".
+- ranges : Should be defined as specified in 1) to describe the
+ translation of MURAM addresses.
+- data-only : sub-node which defines the address area under MURAM
+ bus that can be allocated as data/parameter
+
+Example:
+
+ muram@10000 {
+ compatible = "fsl,qe-muram", "fsl,cpm-muram";
+ ranges = <0 00010000 0000c000>;
+
+ data-only@0{
+ compatible = "fsl,qe-muram-data",
+ "fsl,cpm-muram-data";
+ reg = <0 c000>;
+ };
+ };
+
+* QE Firmware Node
+
+This node defines a firmware binary that is embedded in the device tree, for
+the purpose of passing the firmware from bootloader to the kernel, or from
+the hypervisor to the guest.
+
+The firmware node itself contains the firmware binary contents, a compatible
+property, and any firmware-specific properties. The node should be placed
+inside a QE node that needs it. Doing so eliminates the need for a
+fsl,firmware-phandle property. Other QE nodes that need the same firmware
+should define an fsl,firmware-phandle property that points to the firmware node
+in the first QE node.
+
+The fsl,firmware property can be specified in the DTS (possibly using incbin)
+or can be inserted by the boot loader at boot time.
+
+Required properties:
+ - compatible
+ Usage: required
+ Value type: <string>
+ Definition: A standard property. Specify a string that indicates what
+ kind of firmware it is. For QE, this should be "fsl,qe-firmware".
+
+ - fsl,firmware
+ Usage: required
+ Value type: <prop-encoded-array>, encoded as an array of bytes
+ Definition: A standard property. This property contains the firmware
+ binary "blob".
+
+Example:
+ qe1@e0080000 {
+ compatible = "fsl,qe";
+ qe_firmware:qe-firmware {
+ compatible = "fsl,qe-firmware";
+ fsl,firmware = [0x70 0xcd 0x00 0x00 0x01 0x46 0x45 ...];
+ };
+ ...
+ };
+
+ qe2@e0090000 {
+ compatible = "fsl,qe";
+ fsl,firmware-phandle = <&qe_firmware>;
+ ...
+ };
