The picture is getting clearer. Does it make sense then not to use a boolean property in that case? With a boolean property we are only able to change the polarity bits into one direction (0 -> 1 or 1 -> 0) but we have different reset values for each bit. This part of my patch may then break the mentioned legacy platforms because it even overwrites the register in case the property is not set: + if (p->wait_pin_active_low) + config1 &= ~GPMC_CONFIG_WAITPINPOLARITY(p->wait_pin); + else + config1 |= GPMC_CONFIG_WAITPINPOLARITY(p->wait_pin); + + gpmc_write_reg(GPMC_CONFIG, config1); So in order to preserve compatibility as well as the possibility to change the polarity bits into the desired value I would propose to use an uint32 value for the desired value and in case the dt-property is not set we should not touch the register at all. > > cheers, > -roger cheers, benedikt
