The experimental -viper variants are for running Linux on the 3384's
BMIPS4355 cable modem CPU instead of the BMIPS5000 application processor.

+Power management
+----------------
+
+For power management (particularly, S2/S3/S5 system suspend), the following SoC
+components are needed:
+
+= Always-On control block (AON CTRL)
+
+This hardware provides control registers for the "always-on" (even in low-power
+modes) hardware, such as the Power Management State Machine (PMSM).
+
+Required properties:
+- compatible : should be one of
+ "brcm,bcm7425-aon-ctrl"
+ "brcm,bcm7429-aon-ctrl"
+ "brcm,bcm7435-aon-ctrl" and
+ "brcm,brcmstb-aon-ctrl"
+- reg : the register start and length for the AON CTRL block
+
+Example:
+
+syscon@410000 {
+ compatible = "brcm,bcm7425-aon-ctrl", "brcm,brcmstb-aon-ctrl";
+ reg = <0x410000 0x400>;
+};
+
+= Memory controllers
+
+A Broadcom STB SoC typically has a number of independent memory controllers,
+each of which may have several associated hardware blocks, which are versioned
+independently (control registers, DDR PHYs, etc.). One might consider
+describing these controllers as a parent "memory controllers" block, which
+contains N sub-nodes (one for each controller in the system), each of which is
+associated with a number of hardware register resources (e.g., its PHY.
+
+== MEMC (MEMory Controller)
+
+Represents a single memory controller instance.
+
+Required properties:
+- compatible : should contain "brcm,brcmstb-memc" and "simple-bus"
+- ranges : should contain the child address in the parent address
+ space, must be 0 here, and the register start and length of
+ the entire memory controller (including all sub nodes: DDR PHY,
+ arbiter, etc.)
+- #address-cells : must be 1
+- #size-cells : must be 1
+
+Example:
+
+ memory-controller@0 {
+ compatible = "brcm,brcmstb-memc", "simple-bus";
+ ranges = <0x0 0x0 0xa000>;
+ #address-cells = <1>;
+ #size-cells = <1>;
+
+ memc-arb@1000 {
+ ...
+ };
+
+ memc-ddr@2000 {
+ ...
+ };
+
+ ddr-phy@6000 {
+ ...
+ };
+ };
+
+Should contain subnodes for any of the following relevant hardware resources:
+
+== DDR PHY control
+
+Control registers for this memory controller's DDR PHY.
+
+Required properties:
+- compatible : should contain one of these
+ "brcm,brcmstb-ddr-phy-v64.5"
+ "brcm,brcmstb-ddr-phy"
+
+- reg : the DDR PHY register range and length
+
+Example:
+
+ ddr-phy@6000 {
+ compatible = "brcm,brcmstb-ddr-phy-v64.5";
+ reg = <0x6000 0xc8>;
+ };
+
+== DDR memory controller sequencer
+
+Control registers for this memory controller's DDR memory sequencer
+
+Required properties:
+- compatible : should contain one of these
+ "brcm,bcm7425-memc-ddr"
+ "brcm,bcm7429-memc-ddr"
+ "brcm,bcm7435-memc-ddr" and
+ "brcm,brcmstb-memc-ddr"
+
+- reg : the DDR sequencer register range and length
+
+Example:
+
+ memc-ddr@2000 {
+ compatible = "brcm,bcm7425-memc-ddr", "brcm,brcmstb-memc-ddr";
+ reg = <0x2000 0x300>;
+ };
+
+== MEMC Arbiter
+
+The memory controller arbiter is responsible for memory clients allocation
+(bandwidth, priorities etc.) and needs to have its contents restored during
+deep sleep states (S3).
+
+Required properties:
+
+- compatible : should contain one of these
+ "brcm,brcmstb-memc-arb-v10.0.0.0"
+ "brcm,brcmstb-memc-arb"
+
+- reg : the DDR Arbiter register range and length
+
+Example:
+
+ memc-arb@1000 {
+ compatible = "brcm,brcmstb-memc-arb-v10.0.0.0";
+ reg = <0x1000 0x248>;
+ };
+
+== Timers
+
+The Broadcom STB chips contain a timer block with several general purpose
+timers that can be used.
+
+Required properties:
+
+- compatible : should contain one of:
+ "brcm,bcm7425-timers"
+ "brcm,bcm7429-timers"
+ "brcm,bcm7435-timers and
+ "brcm,brcmstb-timers"
+- reg : the timers register range
+- interrupts : the interrupt line for this timer block
+
+Example:
+
+ timers: timer@4067c0 {
+ compatible = "brcm,bcm7425-timers", "brcm,brcmstb-timers";
+ reg = <0x4067c0 0x40>;
+ interrupts = <&periph_intc 19>;
+ };
