I generally agree with this but is it practical right now if we don't have these incompatibilities. Right now we have 2.0 but there were 1.03.a/1.02.a/1.01a variants just for axi. In past there were variants for PLB and OPB. https://www.xilinx.com/support/documentation/ip_documentation/axi_timer/v1_03_a/pg079-axi-timer.pdf https://www.xilinx.com/support/documentation/ip_documentation/axi_timer/v1_02_a/axi_timer_ds764.pdf https://japan.xilinx.com/support/documentation/ip_documentation/axi_timer_ds764.pdf That's not big problem but seem to me not practical to keep updating bindings docs when new version will be coming just to be listed without any code behind it. We have that versions which is definitely great that if something happens we can add it. But listed all combinations? I am not convinced about it. Thanks, Michal
