This DT binding was added by commit 30f9f2f for Altera SOCFPGA, A funny thing is that they upstreamed DT binding, but they did not upstream needed changes for the Denali driver core. So, the mainline driver has never worked on SOCFPGA (or any of DT-based SoCs). >> + "denali,denali-nand-uniphier-v5a" >> + "denali,denali-nand-uniphier-v5b" > > Use your vendor prefix, not denali.

Hmm, your statement implies that a vendor prefix belongs to an SoC vendor, not an IP vendor. (I was not quite sure about this.) It is unlikely to happen to have two different NAND controllers on one SoC. But, we used a different NAND controller for our SoC family before introducing the Denali IP. It also implies that Socionext may use a different NAND IP in the future. I'd like to include "denali" somewhere because it is clearly associated with the driver name. Also, this will give an idea what kind of _basic_ hardware is used, even though we know various parameters are customizable. (Plan A) "denali,socfpga-nand" (for Altera SOCFPGA variant) "denali,uniphier-nand-v1" (for old Socionext UniPhier family variant) "denali,uniphier-nand-v2" (for new Socionext UniPhier family variant) (Plan B) "altera,denali-nand" (for Altera SOCFPGA variant) "socionext,denali-nand-v5a" (for old Socionext UniPhier family variant) "socionext,denali-nand-v5b" (for new Socionext UniPhier family variant) I think Plan B is nearer to your suggestion, and I think it is OK for Socionext (hopefully for Altera too). -- Best Regards Masahiro Yamada -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe devicetree" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
