Rule for bridge yaml dt binding maintainers?

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hello,

I got confused while doing the txt -> yaml conversion at [1] and it's still not clear to me who should be added in the "maintainers" field. Clearly not the maintainers as returned by get_maintainer.pl. :)

Rob mentioned that "owners" should be manintainers but I also have trouble picking the persons who should be owners / yaml maintainers.

Looking at the completed bridge conversions in the latest linux-next, I couldn't find a rule and the majority of bindings are still txt:
$ find ./devicetree/bindings/display/bridge/ -name *txt | wc -l
23
$ find ./devicetree/bindings/display/bridge/ -name *yaml | wc -l
5

So my questions are:
1. Is there a general rule for assigning yaml file owners/maintainers?

2. Is this vagueness specific to the bridge dt bindings only?

3. Who should step up and maintain these bindings? Original/new authors, SoC, bridge, DRM maintainers etc.?

It would be useful to have a rule to make it easier to do these conversions. We (Collabora) are considering doing the conversion work.

Thank you,
Adrian
