Not entirely. This is a binding for mediatek,mt8192-audio, not for I2S9, so the property should be in this binding referencing your existing I2S devices. > > It seems like a lot more syntax to express the same thing (and the empty node > seems awkward), but if that's the DT way, I can change it no problem. Hm, then the follow up question: why you do not have i2s8 defined in DTS? Best regards, Krzysztof
