If you haven't already done it (I couldn't find it), can you please
add this to "Documentation/devicetree/bindings/watchdog/qcom-wdt.txt"?
Presumably at the same time it would be good to change the format of
that file to .yaml.
Unrelated to sc7180, but it also feels like something is awfully
screwy here in terms of the various Qualcomm device tree files
referring to watchdog timers. It feels wrong, but perhaps you can
educate me on how it works and I'll see the light. Specifically:
1. It seems like the same node is used for two things on other Qualcomm SoCs
If I grep the bindings for "qcom,kpss-timer" or "qcom,scss-timer", I
get two hits:
Documentation/devicetree/bindings/timer/qcom,msm-timer.txt
Documentation/devicetree/bindings/watchdog/qcom-wdt.txt
...and, in fact, there appear to be two drivers claiming compatibility here:
drivers/clocksource/timer-qcom.c
drivers/watchdog/qcom-wdt.c
That seems super odd to me. Is that really right? We have two
drivers probing against the same device tree nodes? ...and that's OK?
If so, why does only one of the bindings list the SoC-specific
bindings names?
2. The actual nodes look really wonky. A few examples below:
2a) arch/arm/boot/dts/qcom-apq8064.dtsi:
compatible = "qcom,kpss-timer", "qcom,kpss-wdt-apq8064", "qcom,msm-timer";
...why is the SoC-specific compatible string in the middle? The
SoC-specific one should be first.
2b) arch/arm/boot/dts/qcom-ipq4019.dtsi:
compatible = "qcom,kpss-wdt", "qcom,kpss-wdt-ipq4019";
...same question, but in this case there is no "msm-timer" at the end?
2c) arch/arm64/boot/dts/qcom/qcs404.dtsi
compatible = "qcom,kpss-wdt";
...no SoC-specific string at all?
Thanks!
