This iommu module can be used by Unisoc's multimedia devices, such as
display, Image codec(jpeg) and a few signal processors, including
VSP(video), GSP(graphic), ISP(image), and CPP(camera pixel processor), etc.

OK, so apparently the hardware is not quite as trivial as my initial
impression, and you should have interrupts as well.

If the IOMMU is contained within another device, then it should just be
a child node of that device.
Yes, actually IOMMU can be seen as a child of multimedia devices, I
considered moving IOMMU under into multimedia device node, but
multimedia devices need IOMMU when probe[1], so I dropped that idea.
Don't design your binding around working-around linux issues.
Having stumbled across the DRM driver patches the other day, I now see
where this is coming from, and it's even worse than that - this whole
binding seems to be largely working around bad driver design.
And they share the same register base, e.g.
+ mm {
+ compatible = "simple-bus";
+ #address-cells = <2>;
+ #size-cells = <2>;
+ ranges;
+
+ dpu_regs: syscon@63000000 {
Drop this node.
+ compatible = "sprd,sc9863a-dpuregs", "syscon";
+ reg = <0 0x63000000 0 0x1000>;
+ };
+
+ dpu: dpu@63000000 {
+ compatible = "sprd,sharkl3-dpu";
+ sprd,disp-regs = <&dpu_regs>;
reg = <0 0x63000000 0 0x800>;
In fact judging by the other driver it looks like the length only needs
to be 0x200 here (but maybe there's more to come in future).
+ iommus = <&iommu_dispc>;
+ };
+
+ iommu_dispc: iommu@63000000 {
+ compatible = "sprd,iommu-v1";
+ sprd,iommu-regs = <&dpu_regs 0x800>;
reg = <0 0x63000800 0 0x800>;
...and this one looks to need less than 0x80, even :)
+ #iommu-cells = <0>;
Though given it seems there is only 1 client and this might really be
just 1 h/w block, you don't really need to use the iommu binding at
all. The DPU should be able to instantiate it's own IOMMU device.
There's other examples of this such as mali GPU though that is all one
driver, but that's a Linux implementation detail.
FWIW that's really a very different situation - the MMUs in a Mali GPU
are fundamental parts of its internal pipelines and would never make
sense to handle as separate devices (if it were even feasible to try).
An IOMMU like this one is typically a logically-distinct block stuck to
the external bus interface of any old device, rewriting transactions
that said device has already issued - it's telling that it needs to
allocate the prot_page scratchpad for "faulting" transactions to still
flow somewhere, implying that it's not even involved enough to be able
to terminate them.
As such I think it *does* make complete sense to describe even
"dedicated" IOMMUs like this one, Rockchip, Exynos, etc. in DT.
Otherwise you'd be effectively forcing OSes to turn half their
display/media drivers into mini board files with secret knowledge of
which blocks are integrated with IOMMUs on which SoCs.
Robin.
