+SiFive asynchronous serial interface (UART)
+
+Required properties:
+
+- compatible: should be something similar to
+             "sifive,<chip>-uart" for the UART as integrated
+             on a particular chip, and "sifive,uart<version>" for the
+             general UART IP block programming model.  Supported
+             compatible strings as of the date of this writing are:
+             "sifive,fu540-c000-uart" for the SiFive UART v0 as
+             integrated onto the SiFive FU540 chip, or "sifive,uart0"
+             for the SiFive UART v0 IP block with no chip integration
+             tweaks (if any)
+- reg: address and length of the register space
+- interrupts: Should contain the UART interrupt identifier
+- clocks: Should contain a clock identifier for the UART's parent clock
+
+
+UART HDL that corresponds to the IP block version numbers can be found
+here:
+
+https://github.com/sifive/sifive-blocks/tree/master/src/main/scala/devices/uart
+
+
+Example:
+
+uart0: serial@10010000 {
+       compatible = "sifive,fu540-c000-uart", "sifive,uart0";
+       interrupt-parent = <&plic0>;
+       interrupts = <80>;
+       reg = <0x0 0x10010000 0x0 0x1000>;
+       clocks = <&prci PRCI_CLK_TLCLK>;
+};
