+Synopsys Designware Watchdog Timer
+
+Required Properties:
+
+- Compatiblity	: "snps,dw-wdt"
This should presumably be:

- compatbile: should contain "snps,dw-wdt"

Hi Mark,

s/compatbile/compatible/ :-)
Indeed :)
Changed for v3.

"must be" or "should contain" ? I see both in various bindings.
Is there a preference ?
I would prefer "should contain" -- it doesn't preclude future compatible
variants.
Oops..v3 has "should be"...will change to "should contain" in v4.

+- reg		: Base address of the watchdog timer register.
And the size...

+
+Example:
+
+	watchdog0: wd@ffd02000 {
+		compatible = "snps,dw-wdt";
+		reg = <0xffd02000 0x1000>;
+		interrupts = <0 171 4>;
This wasn't mentioned.

Is it necessary?

  From looking into the code ...

The driver doesn't use interrupts, so I guess the answer is no. Cut-and-paste error, maybe ?
Does the device have any interrupts, even if they're unused?
Yes, the device does have an interrupt. Should I add it as an optional property?

Is it the only interrupt?

+		clocks = <&per_base_clk>;
Similarly, is this the only clock?

The driver uses one clock, and it is mandatory.
Is this the only clock into the unit?

Does it have a name?
Yes, this is is the only clock into the unit. No, it does not have name.

Thanks,
Dinh

Thanks,
Mark.
