This binding is anything but simple. I think using OF graph is a good idea, but trying to make it completely generic is not. > simple-audio-card,name = "graph-sound"; > > port@0 { > simple-audio-card,format = "left_j"; > simple-audio-card,bitclock-master = <&rcar_ak4613_port>; > simple-audio-card,frame-master = <&rcar_ak4613_port>; These look like properties of the ak4613 to me, so put them in the ak4613 node. If they are standard property names, then you just walk the graph and get them. > > type = "sound"; > rcar_ak4613_port: endpoint { > remote-endpoint = <&ak4613_port>; > playback = <&ssi0 &src0 &dvc0>; > capture = <&ssi1 &src1 &dvc1>; Not really sure how you are using these to comment. > }; > }; > port@1 { > simple-audio-card,format = "i2s"; > simple-audio-card,bitclock-master = <&rcar_hdmi0_port>; > simple-audio-card,frame-master = <&rcar_hdmi0_port>; > type = "sound"; > rcar_hdmi0_port: endpoint { > remote-endpoint = <&du_out_hdmi_snd0>; > playback = <&ssi2>; If you are trying to describe a connection between hdmi_snd0 and ssi2, then do just that.
