+This binding describes the Qualcomm APR. APR is a IPC protocol for +communication between Application processor and QDSP. APR is mainly +used for audio/voice services on the QDSP.

+- compatible:

• Usage: required
• Value type: <stringlist>
• Definition: must be "qcom,apr-v<VERSION-NUMBER>", example "qcom,apr-v2"

+- qcom,apr-dest-domain-id

• Usage: required
• Value type: <prop-encoded-array>
• Definition: Destination processor ID.
• Possible values are :

• 	1 - APR simulator
  

• 	2 - PC
  

• 	3 - MODEM
  

• 	4 - ADSP
  

• 	5 - APPS
  

• 	6 - MODEM2
  

• 	7 - APPS2
  

+= APR SERVICES +Each subnode of the APR node can represent service tied to this apr. The name +of the nodes are not important. The properties of these nodes are defined +by the individual bindings for the specific service +- but must contain the following property:

+- qcom,apr-svc-id

• Usage: required
• Value type: <prop-encoded-array>
• Definition: APR Service ID, used for matching the service.
• Possible values are :

• 	3 - DSP Core Service
  

• 	4 - Audio Front End Service.
  

• 	5 - Voice Stream Manager Service.
  

• 	6 - Voice processing manager.
  

• 	7 - Audio Stream Manager Service.
  

• 	8 - Audio Device Manager Service.
  

• 	9 - Multimode voice manager.
  

• 	10 - Core voice stream.
  

• 	11 - Core voice processor.
  

• 	12 - Ultrasound stream manager.
  

• 	13 - Listen stream manager.
  

+- qcom,apr-svc-name

• Usage: required
• Value type: <stringlist>
• Definition: User readable name of a APR service.

+= APR DEVICES: +Each subnode of the APR node can represent devices tied to this apr, like +sound-card. The properties of these nodes are defined by the individual +bindings for the specific device.

It's not a good design generally to mix different types of nodes at one level.

+= EXAMPLE +The following example represents a QDSP based sound card on a MSM8996 device +which uses apr as communication between Apps and QDSP.

• apr {

• compatible = "qcom,apr-v2";
  

• qcom,smd-channels = "apr_audio_svc";
  

• qcom,apr-dest-domain-id = <APR_DOMAIN_ADSP>;
  

• q6core {
  

• 	compatible = "qcom,q6core";
  

• 	qcom,apr-svc-name = "CORE";
  

• 	qcom,apr-svc-id = <APR_SVC_ADSP_CORE>;
  

• };
  

• q6afe {
  

• 	compatible = "qcom,q6afe";
  

• 	qcom,apr-svc-name = "AFE";
  

• 	qcom,apr-svc-id = <APR_SVC_AFE>;
