Hmm. The idea was that we could keep this consistent with old bindings that only documented parallel mode, and thus didn't need bus-type. This is actually quite common --- adding support for something that wasn't known or cared for during the original review. I guess this could be done in the driver, too, adding a comment that the bindings earlier did not require it. > > > then: > > properties: > > hsync-active: false > > vsync-active: false > > bus-width: > > enum: [8] > > > > required: > > - remote-endpoint > > > > unevaluatedProperties: false > > > > > > Unfortunately, the "default: 5" for bus-type is not working !! > > If we don't specify "bus-type" in example, dt_binding_check is failing > > as if default was 6, it's hardly understandable (see below) ! > > port { > > dcmi_0: endpoint { > > remote-endpoint = <&ov5640_0>; > > bus-width = <10>; > > hsync-active = <0>; > > vsync-active = <0>; > > pclk-sample = <1>; > > }; > > => this should be OK but error claimed: > > DTC > > Documentation/devicetree/bindings/media/st,stm32-dcmi.example.dt.yaml > > CHECK > > Documentation/devicetree/bindings/media/st,stm32-dcmi.example.dt.yaml > > Documentation/devicetree/bindings/media/st,stm32-dcmi.example.dt.yaml: > > dcmi@4c006000: port:endpoint:vsync-active: False schema does not allow [[0]] > > dcmi@4c006000: port:endpoint:hsync-active: False schema does not allow [[0]] > > dcmi@4c006000: port:endpoint:bus-width:0:0: 10 is not one of [8] > > From schema: Documentation/devicetree/bindings/media/st,stm32-dcmi.yaml > > > > => if "bus-type" is explicitly set to 5, all is fine (see below) ! > > port { > > dcmi_0: endpoint { > > remote-endpoint = <&ov5640_0>; > > bus-type = <5>; > > bus-width = <10>; > > hsync-active = <0>; > > vsync-active = <0>; > > pclk-sample = <1>; > > }; > > }; > > > > DTC > > Documentation/devicetree/bindings/media/st,stm32-dcmi.example.dt.yaml > > CHECK > > Documentation/devicetree/bindings/media/st,stm32-dcmi.example.dt.yaml > > ~/.../media_tree$ > > > > > > >> > > >> > > >> The bindings previously documented BT.601 (parallel) only, so > > >>> it was somewhat ambigious to begin with.
