RE: [PATCH v1 2/7] dt-bindings: usb: hpe,gxp-udc: Add binding for gxp gadget

Hi Mr. Kozlowski,

Thank you very much for your quick review and feedbacks.

I will modify the patches based on your feedback accordingly.

On this specific patch, you have questions on how we defined the device/gadget configurations: vdevnum and fepnum.

Please see my answers following the questions:

> +  vdevnum:
> +    description:
> +      virtual device number.

That's unusual property... Why numbering devices is part of DT (hardware description)?

>> Richard: In HPE GXP virtual EHCI controller chipset, it can support up to 8 virtual devices(gadgets). Each device/gadget will be represented by a bit in 8 bits register. For example, the interrupt register bit 0 indicates the interrupt from device 0, bit 1 for device 1 ... so on.  When an user defines a device/gadget, he/she can define the device number as between 0 and 7. Thus, the driver can up to the bit position. That is why we have numbering devices as port of DT.

Similar question.

>>Richard: In HPE GXP virtual EHCI Controller chipset, there is a flexible EP pool. Each flexible EP has its own mapping register. The mapping register bit 0 to 3 is for device number (vdevnum) and bit 4 to 7 is for EP number inside the device. The device driver configures the mapping register to assign a flexible EP to a specific device.  Here, "fepnum" is the input letting the driver know how many EP is needed for this device/gadget.

Hope I have answered your questions on "vdevnum" and "fepnum". 

I will modify this patch to address your other review feedback.

Thank you very much again.

Richard.

Similar question.

BTW, if you end sentence with '.', it means it is an sentence, so you need to start it with capital letter.

phandle is redudant. You need rather specific name, so "hpe,ehci-syscon"
or whatever it is.

No quotes.

Drop "Phandle to"

Isn't "gxp" a GXP?

Node name "usb", I think it is more popular for USB controllers.
