v2:
Renamed bindings from Globaltop/gtop to Mediatek/mtk.
Moved current-speed as an optional propertie.
Removed the status line in the example.
Added "mediatek,mt3339" compatible.

+Mediatek-based GNSS Receiver DT binding
+
+Mediatek chipsets are used in GNSS-receiver modules produced by several
+vendors and can use UART, SPI or I2C interfaces.
+
+Please see Documentation/devicetree/bindings/gnss/gnss.txt for generic
+properties.
+
+Required properties:
+
+- compatible	: Must be one of
+
+			"globaltop,pa6h"
+			"mediatek,mt3339"

I'm not sure it makes sense to add the GPS chip itself as it cannot be
used stand-alone AFAIU, and either not way would require a lot more
resources to be defined than what you add to this binding.


OK, I find it a bit confusing to have Mediatek bindings but no
compatible Mediatek SoCs.
But it is true that it can't be used stand-alone. I will remove this
reference and also remove it from the mtk.c driver code from this patch
serie.

+
+- vcc-supply	: Main voltage regulator (pin name: 3V3_IN, VCC, VDD)

The pin names in parenthesis were copied from the sirf-star binding and
were used to capture the various names given to this supply by different
vendors. Please drop as it doesn't apply here.

+
+Required properties (I2C):
+- reg		: I2C slave address
+
+Required properties (SPI):
+- reg		: SPI chip select address

While the mt3339 appears to support these interfaces, the globaltop one
does not.

Have you looked around for a small sample of mt3339-based receivers, to
see whether anyone actually provides these?


Again I'm confused by the fact that it is the Mediatek bindings.
Hence why I have added it and why it was not present in the v1 that was
only for Globaltop.
I find it odd mentionning the chipset but not all its interfaces.
I will remove these sections and only list supported interfaces (i.e.
UART). Other interfaces can be added afterward if one finds a board that
provides them.

+Optional properties:
+
+- timepulse-gpios	: Time pulse GPIO
+- v-bckp-supply		: Backup voltage regulator
+- current-speed		: Default UART baud rate

Looks like you forgot the optional NRESET input and 3D-FIX output (even
if the latter might be of limited use).


Thanks I will clean this section.

+
+Example:
+
+serial@1234 {
+	compatible = "ns16550a";
+
+	gnss {
+		compatible = "globaltop,pa6h";
+		vcc-supply = <&vcc_3v3>;
+	};
+};
