(even if it happened, nothing of this IP would be customizable on users' side. When buying the IP, SoC vendors submit a list of desired features. Denali (now Cadence) generates the RTL according to the configuration sheet. The function is fixed at this point. So, generic compatible would be useless anyway.) If we are talking about SOCFPGA, SOCFPGA is not only FPGA. Rather "SOC" + "FPGA". It consists of two parts: [1] SOC part (Cortex-A9 + various hard-wired peripherals such UART, USB, SD, NAND, ...) [2] FPGA part (User design logic) The Denali NAND controller is included in [1]. So, as far as we talk about the Denali on SOCFPGA, it is as hard-wired as Intel, Socionext's ones. > I simply would do "socionext,uniphier-v5b-nand" (and v5a). > The fact that it is denali is part of the documentation. > Let me think about this. Socionext bought two version of Denali IP, and we are now re-using the newer one (v5b) for several SoCs. Socionext has some more product lines other than Uniphier SoC family, perhaps wider re-use might happen in the future. At first, I included "uniphier" in compatible, but I am still wondering if such a specific string is good or not. Also, comments from Altera engineers are appreciated. -- 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
