+description: |
+  The Global Command Engine (GCE) is used to help read/write registers
+  with critical time limitation, such as updating display configuration
+  during the vblank.
+  The GCE can be used to implement the Command Queue (CMDQ) driver.

Mention the headers in description.


  Values for properties used by the GCE, such as sub-system IDs, thread

  priority and event IDs are defined in 'dt-bindings/gce/<chip>-gce.h'.

Would that be enough, or should I list all of the headers?

Are you sure this works on mt8195-gce?


Thanks for that, I've just rechecked the driver and.. no, that won't
work for MT8195: it's just one clock there (like the others) and the
clock names aren't even enforced, as the driver is always taking the
clock at index 0.

I got confused because the driver uses a slightly different kind of
logic when probing on SoCs with multiple mailboxes, specifically:
 - For single mailbox, having a clock with name "gce" is enforced
   as it's grabbing it with devm_clk_get(dev, clk_name), where the
   clock name is declared in a string called "clk_name";
 - For multiple mailboxes, it's looking for an of_alias, declared
   in an array of strings called "clk_names" and getting the clock
   with of_clk_get(node, 0).


So there comes my confusion, recapping:

static const char * const clk_name = "gce";
                 <- this is a clock name
static const char * const clk_names[] = { "gce0", "gce1" }; <- OF alias names


At this point, I think that the best idea would be to fix this issue
first... luckily there's no MT8195 devicetree upstream yet, so I would
technically not be breaking any ABI by changing it to be the same as
the others.

Easier explanation: plan is to change the driver such that we won't
need anything different from the others in this schema.

New version coming soon, then....

Regards,
Angelo
