From a DT bindings point of view, however, I think they should be mandatory for new DT. > Rob, > could you please confirm these power supply properties should be > "mandatory"? > if yes, should we then modify other optional properties like the > reset-gpios too in the future? The GPIOs properties are different in my opinion, as there's no requirement to connect for instance the reset pin to a GPIO controllable by the SoC. The pin could be hardwired to VCC, or connected to a system reset that is automatically managed without SoC intervention. The power supplies, however, are mandatory, in the sense that the chip will not work if you leave the power supplies unconnected. > Big thanks to both of you, You're welcome ! > >> Signed-off-by: Philippe Cornu <philippe.cornu@xxxxxx> > >> --- > >> > >> Documentation/devicetree/bindings/display/bridge/sii902x.txt | 2 ++ > >> 1 file changed, 2 insertions(+) > >> > >> diff --git > >> a/Documentation/devicetree/bindings/display/bridge/sii902x.txt > >> b/Documentation/devicetree/bindings/display/bridge/sii902x.txt index > >> 56a3e68ccb80..9fb41fc9af51 100644 > >> --- a/Documentation/devicetree/bindings/display/bridge/sii902x.txt > >> +++ b/Documentation/devicetree/bindings/display/bridge/sii902x.txt > >> @@ -8,6 +8,8 @@ Optional properties: > >> - interrupts-extended or interrupt-parent + interrupts: describe > >> the interrupt line used to inform the host about hotplug events. > >> - reset-gpios: OF device-tree gpio specification for RST_N pin. > >> + - iovcc-supply: I/O supply voltage (1.8V or 3.3V, host-dependent). > >> + - vcc12-supply: TMDS analog & digital core supply voltage (1.2V). > >> > >> Optional subnodes: > >> - video input: this subnode can contain a video input port node -- Regards, Laurent Pinchart -- 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
