+Qualcomm Shared Memory Manager binding
+
+This binding describes the Qualcomm Shared Memory Manager, used to share data
+between various subsystems and OSes in Qualcomm platforms.
+
+- compatible:
+ Usage: required
+ Value type: <stringlist>
+ Definition: must be:
+ "qcom,smem"
+
+- memory-region:
+ Usage: required
+ Value type: <prop-encoded-array>
+ Definition: handle to memory reservation for main SMEM memory region.
+
+- reg:
+ Usage: optional
+ Value type: <prop-encoded-array>
+ Definition: base address and size pair for any additional memory areas
+ of the shared memory.
+
+- hwlocks:
+ Usage: required
+ Value type: <prop-encoded-array>
+ Definition: reference to a hwspinlock used to protect allocations from
+ the shared memory
+
+= EXAMPLE
+The following example shows the SMEM setup for MSM8974, with a main SMEM region
+at 0xfa00000 and an auxiliary region at 0xfc428000:
+
+ reserved-memory {
+ #address-cells = <1>;
+ #size-cells = <1>;
+ ranges;
+
+ smem_region: smem@fa00000 {
+ reg = <0xfa00000 0x200000>;
+ no-map;
+ };
+ };
+
+ smem@fa00000 {
+ compatible = "qcom,smem";
+
+ memory-region = <&smem_region>;
+ reg = <0xfc428000 0x4000>;
+
+ hwlocks = <&tcsr_mutex 3>;
+ };
